Chapter 593: True Spirit Level Flesh
"No wonder he has such a strong power, the technique he practices is so amazing!"
"Yeah, this is the first time I've seen such a big cultivation movement!"
"I feel like there is a spirit that is swallowing up the heaven and earth. The spirit in Xuanwu City is rumored to be not a spirit, but every three thousand years when it emerges from the earth to swallow up the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the movement is earth-shaking!"
"What kind of skill is this? It can actually use the power of stars and consume so much of the power of stars!"
…
In Linghuang City, there were voices of discussion, and everyone who saw this scene was extremely shocked.
The more you practice the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong, the louder the noise will be. The first few levels are actually fine, but once you reach the fifth level, the noise you make is truly earth-shattering.
Not to mention the sixth and seventh levels. The sixth level could easily alarm several tribes around, and the strange phenomena in heaven and earth caused by practicing the seventh level could probably be felt by the entire Fengyuan Continent.
Fortunately, Ye Changsheng is now on the Holy Tree of Heavenly Spirit. If he were somewhere else, all kinds of strange phenomena such as the earth cracking, volcanoes erupting, and mountains collapsing would have probably appeared.
In the center of the altar, Ye Changsheng sat quietly on the ground. The five stars of the Big Dipper in the night sky were shining brightly. A piece of silver light gathered down like an inverted Milky Way and flowed into a silver vortex above his head.
Countless fine and dense threads of light shot out from the vortex, and penetrated into his body like sharp needles.
Blood continued to flow out of his body, and his entire body became a bloody mess. Every inch of his skin, flesh, bones, internal organs, etc. were torn apart and reassembled, undergoing the most tragic transformation.
The power of the stars scraped his flesh, blood, and bone marrow like needles and knives, giving birth to a new life in the extreme pain.
This kind of domineering martial arts method is really rare. Few people will be so tragic when refining their bodies. Most people proceed step by step.
Increasing physical strength bit by bit is a path of repair and development.
But Ye Changsheng, on the other hand, was tearing down and rebuilding, over and over again.
This path is fast, but also extremely painful. It is a quick and unconventional method.
Time passed slowly, and as the night deepened, the stars in the sky became brighter and brighter, and the power of the stars pouring down became more and more vast.
Just when the five huge beams of light reached their peak, they suddenly stopped, the formation stopped working, and the five beams of light shot down from the sky disappeared at once.
The starlight in the sky turned into silver light and dissipated in the flashing light.
This altar, called the Star Gathering Platform, was filled with silver light like smoke.
Ye Changsheng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His whole body was translucent and silver light was flowing on the surface of his skin.
The well-defined muscles all over his body exuded a light silver metallic luster, and every muscle seemed as tough as pure gold.
On his chest and abdomen, the fifth blue light spot flashed, then suddenly took shape, becoming indistinguishable from the other four.
All of a sudden, five spots of light flashed together, arranged like a colander, flickering unsteadily and extremely eye-catching.
Ye Changsheng slowly opened his eyes, and the fifth level of the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong was finally mastered!
He clenched his fists and felt an indescribable terrifying power from them. It seemed as if one punch could smash everything between heaven and earth.
The fifth level of the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong allowed Ye Changsheng's physical body to reach a level comparable to that of a true spirit, which was extremely terrifying!
Now, without using any means, he can compete with a Mahayana with just brute force!
And if you add his powerful magic power, huge spiritual consciousness, Xuantian Soul-Slaying Sword and other means...
Ye Changsheng’s current strength has surpassed most Mahayana masters!
And he is just a cultivator at the peak of the fusion stage!
"It's time to come out of seclusion and prepare for advancement to the Mahayana stage!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
He stood up from the altar, the starlight on his body dimmed, and his skin and flesh returned to their original ordinary appearance.
His divine aura is restrained, and without any contact, no one would have imagined that his physical body has reached such a terrifying level.
"Before that, I have to go to the Mayfly Clan to find the means to cultivate the Insect King. After all, the heavenly tribulation to advance to the Mahayana stage only happens once in a lifetime!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
The baptism of the Mahayana heavenly tribulation is the key for the gold-eating worm to advance from a candidate worm king to a half-worm king, so it should not be missed.
During the more than 100 years of practicing the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong, Ye Changsheng has also been using the leaves of the golden thunder bamboo and the inner elixir of the flying rainbow fish to promote the evolution of the gold-eating insects.
Among the 100,000 mature gold-eating bugs in his hands, he selected 30,000 and attempted to mutate them.
Now, each of these gold-eating insects has many more five-colored stripes on its body, and its aura has become even more ferocious.
The original gold-eating bugs were each equivalent to a Nascent Soul cultivator, but now they have evolved directly to the God Transformation level.
But evolution only goes so far. If one wants to cultivate a candidate for the insect king, one still has to rely on the secret methods of the mayfly clan.
Ye Changsheng didn't plan to try any other methods. After all, there was a successful route in the original book, and he just had to follow that route.
Otherwise, if we take the wrong path and fail to cultivate the Insect King, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
"It's a good opportunity to go see Qing Yuanzi and exchange some Styx Divine Milk. This thing is also helpful for advancing to the Mahayana stage. At the same time, I can take Baohua to see Ming Luo and get everything done at once. After that, it doesn't seem to be that important whether I go to the Demon Realm to soak in the pool or not!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
Now, he no longer seemed to need the 10% chance brought by the Spirit Cleansing Pool. The various skills he practiced on his own gave him an incredibly high chance of success.
Ye Changsheng was thinking so in his heart, and when he walked down from the altar in the center of the square, he saw a stream of light flying towards him from a distance. When the light faded away, the beautiful Tianmiao Linghuang, wearing a white nine-eyed silkworm robe, appeared in front of him.
After so many years of cultivation, her magic power has long since recovered to its original peak state, and it seems to be improving.
Her current strength is quite unfathomable. Below the Mahayana level, she probably won’t encounter many rivals.
"Brother Ye, you have finally come out of seclusion. Your strength has greatly improved after this training!" Tian Miao Ling Huang said with a smile, with amazement in his eyes.
She has been watching Ye Changsheng's practice over the years. She knows better than anyone how terrifying the star power drawn down by the formation is.
After being tempered by such a massive amount of star power, how strong would his body become?
"Thank you, Miaoyu, for taking care of them all these years!" Ye Changsheng said with a smile on his face and bowed.
"It doesn't matter. Brother Ye's Taoist companions are all very talented, and their cultivation speed is truly amazing!" said the Spiritual Emperor with a bright smile.
"Actually, the reason I came to see Brother Ye this time is because I have something I want to ask Brother Ye!"
"Oh, fellow Taoist, please speak!"
"Brother Ye, have you heard of the Wanbao Conference?" The Spirit Emperor's clear voice like a silver bell rang in his ears, causing the smile on Ye Changsheng's face to freeze slightly.
"I almost forgot about the Wanbao Conference!" he thought secretly in his heart.
"Is it the Wanbao Conference held every thousand years between the human and demon races?"
"Yes, it is time for the Wanbao Conference to be held again. This time the conference will be held in a mountain range called Jiuxian Mountain at the junction of Xuanwu Territory and Sky Fox King Territory!"
"In addition to the many precious auction items at the Wanbao Conference, every time someone will privately hold a Black Domain Exchange Fair. The purpose of this exchange fair is to bring together cultivators like us to share what we have..." the Spirit Emperor explained.
Ye Changsheng nodded when he heard this. Since the Wanbao Conference would be held soon, it would be no harm to attend it. It would not waste too much of his time.
So, he smiled softly and said, "I would like to go and see such a grand event!"
"That's perfect. I came here to invite Brother Ye to go with me. It's just right for us to set off together!"
"Okay!"
The two of them immediately turned into two streams of light and flew towards the Xuanwu Realm next to the Tianling Realm.
The Xuanwu Domain is the closest to the demon race among the three domains of the human race. Therefore, compared with the other two domains, the Xuanwu Domain is much more chaotic.
There are often demon cultivators who sneak over to hunt humans, and there are also often human cultivators who sneak over to hunt demon beasts. Nine out of ten of the various demon beast materials secretly circulated among the human race are most likely from the Xuanwu Domain.
The number of cultivators in this domain is slightly less than that in Tianling Domain and Tianyuan Domain, but the number of body cultivators far exceeds that in the other two domains. It is a holy place for body cultivation for the human race.
Under the command of the Overlord, there were a large number of top-level body cultivators. They were all mortal beings who could compete with Nascent Soul cultivators.
"Actually, I invited Brother Ye out this time because I have a few things I want to discuss with you!" As the two were flying in the sky, the Spiritual Emperor turned his head and said to Ye Changsheng.
"Oh, fellow Taoist, please speak!"
"The first thing is that there is a message coming from Tianyuan City, saying that a cultivator who has just advanced to the fusion stage has appeared. This person seems to have some relationship with Brother Ye!" The Spirit Emperor looked at him and said.
"Is your name Han Li?" Ye Changsheng immediately understood what he meant when he heard it and asked.
"It seems that it is indeed related to Brother Ye. That person is indeed called Han Li. He should be from the same human world as Brother Ye, right?"
"Haha, not only are we from the same realm, but when I was still a young Qi-refining cultivator, we were from the same sect!" Ye Changsheng said with a laugh.
"Oh? What kind of sect is this that can cultivate such outstanding talents like you?" The Spiritual Emperor was suddenly a little surprised, his beautiful eyes widened, looking a little incredible.
Although the recently appeared Fellow Daoist Han is not as amazing as Ye Changsheng, he can definitely be called a rare genius among both the human and demon races in the past hundred thousand years. He is also only over a thousand years old, but he has already advanced to the fusion stage.
"Haha, it's just an insignificant small sect. As for the fact that it could produce cultivators like the two of us, it's actually just a coincidence!" Ye Changsheng laughed and changed the subject.
The Spiritual Emperor smiled slightly and did not ask any more questions.
"Han Li must have had some special opportunity in Thunder Continent, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to cultivate to the point of fusion so quickly!" Ye Changsheng pondered in his heart.
According to Han Li's cultivation speed in the original novel, it takes about two hundred years to break through a small realm in the Spirit Transformation Stage, and about four hundred years to break through a small realm in the Fusion Stage.
Then in the middle stage of the Void Refining Period, if one practices normally, it will take about two to three hundred years to break through a small realm.
At this rate, he might not even have broken through to the middle stage of the Void Refining Stage yet. To have suddenly reached the Fusion Stage must have been a great opportunity.
"Haha, he really is worthy of being the son of the plane!" Ye Changsheng thought secretly.
Han Li, for this guy, always gets compensation in various places for the opportunities that were intercepted. After he lost the Xuantian Soul-Slaying Sword, he got a Xuantian Qi-Transforming Gourd. After he lost the star map of the Guanghan Realm that could infuse his body, he didn't know what opportunity he got, and his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.
"The human world you came from is truly a legend!" At this time Ye Changsheng heard the Spirit Emperor beside him say so with emotion.
"Of course not. Let alone Han Li and I, Qing Yuanzi and Fairy Bingpo alone make this human world extremely unusual!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
The human race governs thousands of human worlds, and this one is the most special.
In other human realms, among the ascended monks, the strongest ones are like Zen Master Jin Yue and True Man Lei Luo, who have at most achieved the state of fusion.
Moreover, the number of combined monks in the same period will not be too many.
But the human world where Ye Changsheng was born, even without the variables brought about by his appearance, there were still several Mahayana masters, which was truly amazing.
Perhaps this has something to do with the laws of heaven and earth in the human world?
As a lower realm that can breed Xuantian treasures, it may be somewhat different from other lower realms in terms of the laws of heaven and earth, so it can cultivate such outstanding talents?
Ye Changsheng smiled and said, "This is quite a coincidence. My fellow disciple is also a man of great luck!"
The eyes of the Spirit Emperor were full of brilliance: "Speaking of luck, I have lived for so many years and have never seen anyone who can compare with you!"
"However, apart from this matter, the second thing I want to tell you is not good news!" As the Spirit Emperor spoke, his expression became solemn, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"What's the matter?" Ye Changsheng had a rough guess in his mind, but still asked.
"Have you ever heard about the demonic calamity?" The Spirit Emperor took a deep breath and asked solemnly.
"Is it about the invasion of the demon world adjacent to our spiritual world? Of course I have heard of such a serious event!"
The Spirit Emperor exhaled lightly and said slowly: "It seems that I don't need to introduce it in detail. Logically speaking, this demonic calamity should only erupt once every tens of thousands of years!"
"It should be some time before the next demonic calamity, but for some reason, this one seems to have come earlier. The demon world has already shown signs of invasion!"
"Not long ago, news came from the Holy Island, reminding me that the place with the largest magic spots among both the human and demon races in this demon calamity is my Spirit Emperor City!" The Spirit Emperor said in a slightly low voice.
