Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 165 - 157: First Advancement and Autonomous Floating Cannon (Double-length - )
The light gradually faded, and the ancient small bronze mirror slowly reappeared.
Jeming also felt a wave of weakness. Although the refining time was not too long, the energy expenditure was quite exaggerated.
Looking at the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror floating in his palm, he couldn’t help but show a joyful expression.
"First Transformation...success!"
He summoned back the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, and it once again merged into his body, perfectly integrating with his soul.
He could clearly feel a qualitative change occurring inside the magical treasure.
After the first transformation, the most notable improvement of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror was its greatly enhanced escape abilities.
After playing with the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror for a while, Jeming couldn’t wait to head towards the Purgatory Sulfur Plane.
"Here...should do..."
Jeming looked at the survey map provided by the "Construction Team" for a long time before finally choosing a location near a magma lake as his testing site.
This area was devoid of any creatures, making it very suitable for testing.
Jeming closed his eyes to communicate with the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, sensing more specific information.
Besides the basic enhancement of capabilities, compared to before, the first transformation of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror had an extremely important new feature.
Or rather, a new safeguard!
Jeming learned from the information transmitted back by the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror that before performing light transformation, he could now use other methods to apply shields to himself.
During the light transformation process, these shields would also "transform into light," merging into the light form his body transformed into.
However, after the light transformation ended and his physical form re-solidified, these shields would reconstruct and remain on him!
This means that if he needed to escape using light transformation in the future, he would no longer be entirely exposed but would have an extra layer of protection during the vulnerable post-escape period.
At a critical moment, such a layer of shield could buy him precious time, preventing the enemy from exploiting his vulnerability.
This was undoubtedly a huge advancement!
Without hesitation, he took out the Fourth Level Witchcraft Artifact to apply a shield to himself, gathered True Essence, and activated the "light transformation" ability of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror.
"Light Transformation!"
His body instantly turned into pure light, surpassing the speed of the naked eye, instantly crossing the magma lake.
Jeming could feel that his current light transformation state was more stable, meaning that he could maintain the light transformation state for a longer time while consuming the same amount of True Essence!
Boom!
In an instant, the light transformation ended, and Jeming plunged straight into a volcano, even shattering the entire mountain wall and crashing into the molten magma within.
Rumble... 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Stimulated by such a massive impact, the originally extremely active volcano erupted as expected.
Churning black smoke and hot magma spurted from the fissure created by Jeming’s crash, adding more dust to the already polluted atmosphere of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane.
After a moment, a hand emerged from the magma lake, grasping the nearby rock wall.
Jeming slowly crawled out of the magma, leaning on the rock wall, with his shield faintly visible, continuously shedding lava from the shield.
"Sigh...I rejoiced too soon."
Ignoring the waves of high temperature under him, Jeming sat down on the volcano’s mouth, looking at the flickering energy shield on him and couldn’t help but sigh.
He should have realized earlier that the light transformation itself is a function of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, and as long as it’s a capability, it certainly has a "power limit."
As a lifebound magical treasure, and one that had just undergone its first transformation for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, maintaining a Fourth Level Shield was indeed somewhat too much to bear.
During the light transformation, most of the energy of the Fourth Level Shield on Jeming had dissipated, and when re-consolidating, it almost couldn’t even maintain the shield state itself.
"It seems that currently, the maximum shields that can be applied in advance during light transformation are just two levels. Any higher shield level not only affects the shield’s stability but also impacts the duration of light transformation."
Jeming felt that he might have been somewhat greedy and couldn’t help but shake his head: "Forget it, anyway, when I need to use the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror to escape, it’s usually a moment of crisis. There’s no time to worry about so many details. Escaping further is the hard truth, and in this aspect, it has been enhanced quite well."
According to Jeming’s calculations, if not for the energy interference of the Fourth Level Shield earlier, his light transformation could have been maintained for another moment.
Compared to before refining, in the first transformation of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, the duration of light transformation doubled while consuming the same amount of True Essence and Spiritual Power, meaning that Jeming’s escape distance also doubled.
Originally, a Foundation Establishment cultivator performing light transformation could instantly leap a thousand miles away, and doubling the distance meant even Tier Three Creatures couldn’t catch up.
"However, I didn’t expect body cultivation to have unexpected benefits. Body cultivation truly lives up to being a cultivation method specializing in attack prowess, with incredible adaptability to various negative states."
Jeming felt the emptiness within himself after exhausting True Essence and the sharp pain in his mind from depleting Spiritual Power, looked at his hand, clenched it, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, he turned his head towards the rock wall he was leaning against, clenched his fist, and smashed it forcefully.
Boom!!
The volcano, which had slightly calmed down, was stimulated again, becoming active once more, powerful force exploded from within the mountain, and a figure broke through the barriers of lava and rock.
Crash...
As the figure descended, even the extremely dense magma was split open like water.
Standing in the flowing magma with no protection at all, relying solely on his physical body, Jeming looked at his body filled with excitement.
Jeming truly didn’t expect that body cultivation would have such a benefit.
