Chapter 266: Sixth Transformation! Terrifying Body Strength!
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully Signing In! Obtained the Magic Power ‘Earthbound Art!’]
A mechanical and cold voice rang in Su Qin’s ear.
“A Magic Power?”
Su Qin was shocked.
Although he didn’t know the specific effect of the [Earthbound Art], just basing on the word ‘Magic Power’ was enough to make Su Qin stop and look.
Su Qin had Signed In for decades and had obtained three Magic Powers. One was the [Eyes of Truth], the second was [Flesh Rebirth], and the third was [Calling Wind, Summoning Rain].
Basically, this [Earthbound Art] was Su Qin 4th Magic Power.
“[Earthbound Art]…”
Su Qin’s mind slowly sank into his mind. At this time, insights about the [Earthbound Art] were constantly being instilled by the System.
After a moment, Su Qin opened his eyes with a flash of joy.
The [Earthbound Art], as the name suggests, was a Magic Power that allowed Su Qin to move inside the Earth.
One had to be aware that as you go deeper underground, the harder it was to move. Not to mention one’s body, even Divine Sense would be suppressed by several levels.
On the surface, Su Qin can cover several hundred li with a single thought.
But underground, his Divine Sense’s range would plummet. He could only cover several dozen li underground.
Su Qin was able to discover the Underground Palace, hidden underground in Chang’an City with Divine Sense, completely because he condensed his Divine Sense into a single line.
But with the [Earthbound Art], Su Qin was basically integrated with the earth. Even if he was deep in the earth, his strength would not be affected. In fact, he would even gain some boost!
Furthermore, in terms of escape, the [Earthbound Art] also had an incredible effect.
Even if he encountered an Earth Immortal in the future, Su Qin only needed to dive directly into the ground and leave the other party helpless.
After all, even an Earth Immortal would be under the pressure from the vast earth.
Su Qin, on the other hand, could now treat the earth as nothing. He could move freely and would surely make the Earth Immortal vomit blood from such an absurd display.
“Not bad, this Magic Power is extremely suitable for escaping.”
Su Qin nodded slightly, with a smile on his face.
He also does his seclusion underground, so this Magic Power couldn’t be all the more fitting. Su Qin was confident he could escape from an Earth Immortal.
The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors were standing respectfully next to Su Qin and naturally saw Su Qin’s smile. They thought that he was satisfied with the Earth Element Source, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Su Qin calmed down and scratched the idea of immediately using the [Earthbound Art]. Instead, he once again set his eyes on the valley in front of him.
“It’s a pity…”
After looking at it carefully for a while, Su Qin shook his head slightly.
“What does the Word-Honored One mean by ‘a pity’?” The 6th Ancestor couldn’t help asking when he heard this.
“This Earth Element Source is not fully mature. It still needs at least a thousand years more…”
Su Qin shook his head slightly again and sighed.
Although the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall certainly had records about Element Sources, but again, it’s already been tens of thousands of years.
In such a long time, more than one Earth Immortal was born from the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall and the records had become incomplete.
Compared to Su Qin, who had ‘browsed’ the jade stone left by a Peak Earth Immortal, the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea, the Ancestors’ knowledge was naturally lacking.
The 6th, 7th, and 9th Ancestors only recognized this valley as an Earth Element Source. As for other information, such as whether it was mature, etc, they did not have a good grasp of it.
“It still needs a thousand years to mature?”
The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors looked at each other with a trace of disappointment.
If the Earth Element Source was still immature, wasn’t it useless for the World-Honored One?
Even using a self-preserving technique to continue living by the time it ripens was useless, because using such a technique was basically cutting off one’s future achievements.
“However, even though the Earth Element Source is immature, the huge amount of Earth Element contained in it is still there. If I devour it, I would definitely make a huge improvement, at least in terms of my body.”
Su Qin’s thoughts fluctuated in his heart.
Su Qin never held the idea of waiting for the Earth Element Source to mature.
For him, doing that was like a joke. In that thousand years, with Su Qin’s Cultivation speed, not to mention becoming an Earth Immortal, he would definitely step into an even higher realm. By that point, the Earth Element Source was useless.
Thinking of this, Su Qin looked at the 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors, and said: “I’ll be going in the valley. If there is nothing important, don’t bother me.”
“Yes.”
The 6th, 7th and 9th Ancestors replied respectfully. They then watched Su Qin walk into the hill within the valley.
The inside of the Earth Element Source was not as ordinary as it was on the outside. Every corner was filled with dense Earth Element. When Su Qin entered the valley, he almost thought that he had come to a place purely composed of Earth Element, akin to that of the sea.
“Such a dense Earth Element…” Su Qin smiled. He then found a place to sit down, cross-legged.
This was really a surprise. He originally came to the Western Desert to just deter the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall. To think that he would actually stumble upon an Element Source. Not to mention that he was also able to Sign In and obtain his Fourth Magic Power.
Apart from this, the Earth Element contained in this Element Source could definitely improve Su Qin’s body by a lot.
“After beginning the [Burning Sun Divine Art], my body has been transformed for nearly six times. Some time ago, as I continued to Cultivate it, my body also slowly improved. It should only be a matter of time for me to achieve the real sixth transformation.”
Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
“With the addition of the dragon’s blood, there should be no difficulty in completing the sixth transformation.”
“If I devour this Earth Element Source, I feel that I can even try to continue and attack the seventh transformation.”
Su Qin’s eyes flashed with a fiery glint.
According to Su Qin’s estimation, once his body had been transformed seven times, he should be able to truly match an Earth Immortal’s body. By that time, Su Qin would only need to rely on his body to sweep everything.
An Earth Immortal’s body was called the Dharma Body. Simply put, it was extremely powerful. That’s because upon entering the Earth Immortal Realm, the Martial Artist would be able to blend into the ocean of vitality and then use the endless vitality to temper their body.
This was the key to the strength of an Earth Immortal’s body.
Su Qin’s ability to polish his body to a level comparable to that of a Dharma Body, without the help of the ocean of vitality, was already absolutely appalling.
“It’s a pity that this Earth Element Source has not yet matured. Otherwise, it’s value would even make Earth Immortals fight each other for it.” Su Qin sighed with emotion.
The biggest function of the Element Sources was to increase the probability of a Peak Legend entering the Earth Immortal Realm. With it, the difficulty of sensing the vitality during the breakthrough will be greatly reduced.
Once you sense the vitality, you’ve already completed half the battle.
But for Su Qin, let alone the immature Earth Element Source in front of him, even if it was a mature one, he would not use it to break through.
The Earth Element Source can indeed make the Martial Artist feel the vitality more easily, but it was only the surface of the vitality. As for how deep it can go, it depends on luck.
With Su Qin’s Cultivation of the [Burning Sun Divine Art], as long as he Cultivated it to the Small Accomplishment, he could use a trace of the innate talent or divine ability of the real Three-legged Golden Crow to sense the vitality. Using this, he could also definitely enter the deepest part of the vitality.
By then, Su Qin’s benefits will probably surpass any Earth Immortal in history.
That’s because humans only need to sense the vitality to break through to the Earth Immortal.
For the Three-legged Golden Crow, the Fire Element Divine Beast, on the other hand, even if it was just a newly born chick, it had the ability to sweep through the Earth Immortal Realm. There was no need for a step-by-step breakthrough.
“Let’s complete the sixth transformation first…”
Su Qin took out a jade bottle and then slowly poured out nine drops of pale-gold blood.
These nine drops of blood seem to have a dragon-shaped shadow manifesting around them. Su Qin refined all of the blood and meat of the Demon Dragon in the War God Temple and then got its most essential part.
“Although the Demon Dragon is called a dragon, its True Dragon Bloodline was actually very weak…”
Su Qin’s gaze slowly swept across the nine drops of blood, “However, for me, it is enough.”
The next moment, Su Qin directly swallowed the blood.
When the pale-gold blood entered his throat, Su Qin felt an explosive force spreading within his body. His muscles were torn, his skeleton was shattered, and his entire body seemed to explode.
[Hong long long~]!
While Su Qin’s body was constantly torn and destroyed, there was an inexplicable vitality that was spreading within his body. Wherever the vitality passed, every muscle would recover and every bone would heal.
Moreover, the restored muscle or bone was stronger and more vibrant than the previous one.
Time passed slowly.
When Su Qin swallowed all nine drops of dragon’s blood in a row, the aura in his body suddenly began to boil. His blood vibrated rapidly, as if there were waves inside his body.
Finally, at some point, the breakthrough had reached a certain bottleneck, and the aura in Su Qin’s body began to calm down.
At the same time, an inexplicable pressure began to centre on Su Qin’s body, before slowly spreading all around.
“Finally completed the sixth transformation…”
Su Qin slowly opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
