Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 721 - 715 Mid-stage True Immortal, Chaotic Treasure Lotus Immortal Body!_1
After the Magical Arts had reached a Technique-Nearing-Dao Level, I thought it was the limit and couldn’t advance any further. Little did I know, above the Technique-Nearing-Dao Level, there were even higher echelons.
Jia Ren swept over the Proficiency Panel, his joy doused greatly, regret unmistakable in his eyes.
Not all Divine Skills had the ’+’ sign for a Breakthrough; only those secret techniques and Divine Skills that involved complete transformation could undergo a fourth Breakthrough.
The Proficiency Panel had never shown such a change. Everything was normal until the birth of the Tianbao Transformation Immortal Technique.
It was only after advancing to a True Immortal through the Thousand Transformations Rule that such a result appeared.
This meant that the fourth Breakthrough of spells was inevitably tied to the Power of Laws!
No wonder the fourth Breakthrough was unachievable before; so that’s how it is!
After The Three Thousand Great Paths were turned into the Three Thousand Fiendish Ways, there was no corresponding Power of Laws in the world. The Proficiency Panel was limited, remaining at a Technique-Nearing-Dao Level.
Is the preliminary requirement for the fourth Breakthrough the Law of the corresponding spell? Do I need to grasp the corresponding Power of Laws? Or does the corresponding Law need to exist within the world?
For Jia Ren, there wasn’t much difference between the two options.
Unless he could enter a world where the Great Dao had not undergone Bizarre Transformation, there was no way to confirm the truth.
The urgent task at hand was to witness the realm beyond the Technique-Nearing-Dao Level.
"Breakthrough!"
Jia Ren did not hesitate in the slightest and decisively underwent the fourth Breakthrough.
The Proficiency Panel became blurry once again, the duration lasting much longer than expected.
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea passed, two secret techniques that had undergone Breakthroughs disappeared, leaving behind only... Unknown Disguise Technique (Performance-Magic Level: 0/12,800)
At the same time, new insights flooded Jia Ren’s mind.
The difference between the Performance-Magic Level and the Technique-Nearing-Dao Level was like heaven and earth. A Magical Art at this level had no upper limit; it could evolve indefinitely, its power rising without end.
The required fuel was Skill Breaking Points and Magical Arts of the corresponding system.
By using similar Magical Arts for its evolution, it could grow to unimaginable levels.
As long as he had the corresponding system’s Magical Arts and Skill Breaking Points, it could grow indefinitely.
Is this the Performance-Magic Level?
Jia Ren was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed ecstatic joy.
The Performance-Magic Level was indeed a qualitative leap, vastly different from what had come before.
There was no shortage of Skill Breaking Points; the accumulation over thousands of years was a staggeringly large number.
As long as he obtained a large number of similar Magical Arts to fuel its evolution, this disguise technique would reach an inconceivable level.
"Unfortunately, I possess only one kind of Power of Laws and cannot raise other Magical Arts to the Performance-Magic Level."
Humans are inevitably creatures of insatiable greed. Having experienced the power of the Performance-Magic Level, Jia Ren felt a great sense of loss. To elevate all Divine Skills and secret techniques to the Performance-Magic Level, he must master all Powers of Laws! One can only hope that after the Tianbao Transformation Immortal Technique achieves a Breakthrough, it can utilize other types of Laws. Only then will there be a chance to fulfill such a wish.
"Cultivate!"
Jia Ren put aside the matter of art evolution and continued to convert the vast Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force inside the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda.
Strands of Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force were transformed through the Cultivation Technique and his Life-bound Xuantian Immortal Treasure, finally becoming Celestial Treasure Immortal Power.
The newly born True Immortal Power was drawn in, flying into the illusory stars.
The dark, silent Void was gradually illuminated by stars, shining in all directions.
One by one, the Star Immortal Orifices were filled by the massive Celestial Treasure Immortal Power, twinkling like stars in the sky.
Time flew by rapidly, and the number of illuminated stars reached twelve.
The twelve Fairy Apertures pulsated tirelessly, creating a new cycle that went round and round.
This was not the end. As the thirteenth Fairy Aperture was gradually filled with Celestial Treasure Immortal Power, an even stronger Immortal Qi rippled around him.
By now, Jia Ren’s Cultivation Level had reached the Mid-stage True Immortal.
All the Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force inside the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda had been depleted. Twenty-four Fairy Apertures in the Dantian Cave Heaven were illuminated, with only the twenty-fourth Fairy Aperture remaining shy of perfection.
The accumulation over thousands of years was squandered in one go, and his cultivation soared.
Had it not been for the newer Celestial Treasure Immortal Power being of a higher quality, consuming more Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force with each transformation, his cultivation could have reached the Late-stage True Immortal.
This was already a satisfactory outcome.
With the transformation of immortal power concluded, only the Treasure Light Body Refining Technique and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sovereign Body awaited their Breakthroughs.
The Treasure Light Body Refining Technique was a Body Refining Technique, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sovereign Body was a special Divine Skill that enhanced physique; the two complemented each other perfectly.
Jia Ren first chose to achieve a Breakthrough for the Treasure Light Body Refining Technique, its importance second only to the Tianbao Transformation Immortal Technique.
"Breakthrough!"
The Treasure Light Body Refining Technique embarked on the same path as the Heavenly Treasure Spirit Cultivation Technique, transitioning from mortal to celestial, officially advancing to an Immortal Technique.
The Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body and other Mysterious Immortal Techniques merged their strengths, creating a new Mysterious Immortal Body Refining Method.
"Dusk Treasured Light!"
Jia Ren’s body emitted traces of chaotic energy; the Eight Paths of Dusk Treasured Light absorbed the chaotic energies, already turning grey.
The grey Dusk Treasured Light radiated out. Wherever it passed, a great amount of Immortal Spiritual Qi rushed into his body, swiftly being channeled into the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl.
The nature’s spiritual energy within the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl was quickly replaced by Immortal Spiritual Qi, completely changing the realm.
After this, the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl could cultivate Immortal Elixirs.
Ordinary Spiritual Medicines, under the nourishment of Immortal Spiritual Qi, had richer medicinal properties. Spirit Fish and Spirit Beasts could also benefit, growing at a much faster pace.
It’s as if when one achieves enlightenment, their entire household ascends to heaven.
Jia Ren maintained the Dusk Treasured Light while absorbing the Immortal Spiritual Qi into the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl, observing the changes in himself.
A vividly lifelike lotus flower had appeared on his chest, somewhat resembling the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body.
The former consisted of nine lotus patterns, while the latter was a single, lifelike lotus flower on his chest.
A portion of the massive Immortal Spiritual Qi absorbed by the Dusk Treasured Light entered the lotus on his chest, making the lotus imprint come alive, transforming into a White Lotus emitting treasured light.
The lotus spread across his body, forming lotus-patterned treasured armor that radiated white light.
The powers of the Treasured Lotus did not end there.
White Lotus Rocking!
Jia Ren recalled the notes on the Divine Skills of Green Lotus Swing and Green Lotus Ferrying in his mind and subconsciously used them in a similar fashion.
The White Lotus gently swayed. The area affected by the Dusk Treasured Light was influenced, creating a vast tide of chaos.
Wherever the chaotic grey mist touched, it shattered everything. Nothing could stand in its way, seemingly wanting to drag heaven and earth back into chaos.
The effects of White Lotus Rocking were in no way inferior to the authentic Green Lotus Swing, with an even broader impact and more terrifying destructive power.
Is this... integrated with the powers of the Dusk Treasured Light?
The Dusk Treasured Light was not just a supplementary light for absorbing Immortal Spiritual Qi. Combined with the activated White Lotus state, it officially became an Immortal Path Divine Power with terrifying destructive power and a vast range of influence.
Moreover, unleashing White Lotus Rocking didn’t consume Immortal Spiritual Qi. It could draw on the Immortal Spiritual Qi absorbed by the Dusk Treasured Light to use this Divine Skill.
This meant that even if Jia Ren exhausted his Spiritual Power, he would still possess terrifying combat potential.
The Dusk Treasured Light was originally the power to turn an area into a land of dusk by his own strength. Now, combined with White Lotus Rocking, it was set to turn heaven and earth into chaos.
This transformation has brought surprises beyond imagination.
Having successfully performed White Lotus Rocking, he couldn’t wait to attempt it a second time.
"White Lotus Crossing!"
Targeting a distant boulder, Jia Ren used it in a similar fashion to the Green Lotus Ferrying Method.
Instead of a White Lotus, a massive amount of Immortal Spiritual Qi was transported into the boulder.
The Immortal Spiritual Qi absorbed through the Dusk Treasured Light could be transferred entirely into the target with just a thought from him.
Immortal Spiritual Qi could improve an Immortal’s Cultivation Level, but in excess, it was harmful, not beneficial.
The Spirit Fish and Spirit Beasts within the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl deeply understood this.
In an instant, White Lotus Crossing could transfer a massive amount of Immortal Spiritual Qi into an enemy’s body, far exceeding their limits and enough to make them explode.
When performing White Lotus Crossing, could I add something more potent? For example, mixing in Bizarre Qi and the power of bizarreness to contaminate it? Or perhaps send a Mimicry Phantom Body into the target through White Lotus Crossing? The enemy, caught off guard, would surely suffer greatly.
Jia Ren then attempted the third and fourth forms, but alas, Qing Lian Sheng and Qing Lian Xiu both failed.
"The newly developed Body Refining Technique shall be renamed the Chaotic Treasure Lotus Immortal Body!"
On the Proficiency Panel, the name of the unknown Body Refining Technique changed to Chaotic Treasure Lotus Immortal Body.
"The Dusk Treasured Light can be renamed to Dusk Chaos Treasured Light."
The birth of the Chaotic Treasure Lotus Immortal Body meant he would not take long to tread the path of Profound Immortals.
The paths of True Immortal and Profound Immortal progressed side by side.
"Integrate the Power of Laws into my body!"
The Petrification Rule could create petrified skin to enhance the body’s defensive capability; it’s the most suitable Power of Laws for Body Refinement among the existing Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures.
Jia Ren, with the Treasure Melding Law Formula, formed the Treasure Melding Law Furnace and threw in the Xuantian Stone Spirit Pot, which harbored the Power of the Petrification Rule.
The pot shattered, turning into white ash at the bottom of the furnace, and the Petrification Rule poured into the Dantian Cave Heaven.
BUZZ!
The Thousand Transformations Rule, already integrated with the Celestial Treasure Immortal Power, emerged, emitting a mighty repelling force that forcibly expelled the external Law from his body.
A single mountain cannot house two tigers! A True Immortal can only master one kind of Power of Laws, not allowing for a second. This result is far beyond expectations.
Despite several attempts, Jia Ren could not integrate the Petrification Rule into his body.
The collision between the two Powers of Laws caused him significant injury.
With no other choice, he had to expel the Power of the Petrification Rule.
He had no treasures to store the Power of Laws. Spiritual Treasures and Sky-reaching Spirit Treasures were unable to bear it, so he could only watch as the Petrification Rule returned to heaven and earth.
"A huge loss!"
Jia Ren lamented his mistake. A Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure and a Power of Laws were utterly destroyed. This was a heavy price paid for his ’ignorance’. If I can’t absorb the Power of Laws into my immortal body, wouldn’t I be unable to further advance on the path of Profound Immortals? I can only hope that by cultivating the Chaotic Treasure Lotus Immortal Body to the ultimate level, I might find a new path.
"Only the Ten Thousand Beasts Sovereign Body remains!"
Jia Ren found the Ten Thousand Beasts Sovereign Body in the Proficiency Panel. Just as he was about to initiate a Breakthrough, a strong sense of impending crisis suddenly overwhelmed him, arising from the unseen.
The Whims of the Heart were triggered. An image of his body petrifying emerged in his mind.
A potent, Bizarre Power of Laws invaded, intending to petrify him permanently on the spot.
Could this be a Virtual-level Stone Petrification Oddity?!
The unforeseen calamity he glimpsed rendered Jia Ren completely stunned. His eyes, looking to the sky, filled with disbelief.
This couldn’t be... the Petrification Rule I just ’released’ transforming into a Void-level Strange Creature, could it?!
