Painting of the Nine Immortals

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

Deep within the volcano, Ling Xian guffawed as he expressed much of his happiness and exhilaration.

He had succeeded!

The transformation he has been looking forward to has finally been completed. Not only did his spiritual energy awaken, it was now at the peak of the original level.

Without a doubt, this was a full-scale transformation and huge upgrade!

"My physique has strengthened."

The corner of Ling Xian's lips lifted as he felt the strength in his physical body. It was as if he could tear up the sky by simply lifting his hand. He was full of happiness.

Currently, his bones were like jade and his skin was like snow. As if he had the legendary body of a real immortal, he was flawless and untainted.

This is the behavior of a physical body that is pure and extremely powerful. Though his previous physique was also at the peak, after the bath in the pure-blooded phoenix's blood, he had leveled up!

He had reached the real peak!

Though Ling Xian doesn't look very different - still slender. Inside his slender body was an aggressive and violent beast. It should not be messed with as one provocation will startle the heavens!

"My soul has strengthened as well."

Ling Xian faintly smiled. The space between his brows began to emit light. A tiny person that was identical to him appeared. Its eyes were crystal clear and its face was very handsome. It was shining with seven different colored lights and looked very mysterious.

Though no soul howled, anyone who sees it can sense the impermeable strength from the little person.

Back then, his enlivener was rather extraordinary, however, its features were hard to see and were blurry. Currently, however, all of his facial features were crystal clear.

This meant, after a transformation, his soul has reached its real peak as well!

Other than the benefits received by his soul and physical body, spiritual energy was without a doubt, his biggest gain.

Not only did he successfully awaken, but he also broke through three levels and straight away arrived at the peak of the original level!

Or in other words, the extreme of the original level!

The meditational, foundational, and completion levels all exist in the perfect realm, which means one gets to dominate everyone else at the same level. Once the original level is reached, the perfect realm gets a different name.

The metamorphosis of spiritual energy.

This happens very rarely and only ever happens to truly talented people. Even to those of the fifth level, they may not encounter it in their lifetime.

But once successfully transformed, the Qi will grow powerful - basically reaching the perfect realm.

To give a simple example, Ling Xian is fighting against a cultivator of the same level. Without using any techniques or weapons, he can defeat his enemy using his spiritual energy alone.

All because metamorphosed Qi surpasses everyone else of the same generation!

In other words, currently, Ling Xian had finished the perfect realm of the original level. Today, his level is at the very peak of the original level - he was at the extreme of the original level.

He was truly at the extreme!

"Physique, soul, and Qi have all reached their extremes…"

Ling Xian clenched his fists and sensed the waves of power from inside his body. He revealed a small smile.

"Today, I have truly walked to the peak of the original level. I am merely one step away from the fifth level."

After those words, he swung his hands around. At once, spiritual energy exploded throughout space, shaking up the mountains and crumbling the space!

The entire volcano was boiling, creating shocking waves that angered the heavens!

The scenery was truly heaven-defying and earth-shattering!

This strike of his was of pure Qi. However, its powerfulness can only be more intense than his physique, not less!

"So strong!"

Ling Xian's eyes restricted. He couldn't believe this. He didn't expect his transformed Qi to be this powerful.

Then, he revealed a joyous smile. He was very satisfied with his current capability.

Not only did his Qi successfully transform, but it also broke through three whole stages, saving him the pain of years of cultivation. Anyone would be overjoyed by this!

Of course, they would still feel disbelief.

After all, he had broken through three whole stages. Three stages of the original level were heaven-defying!

But thinking about it carefully, it made sense.

To know that the Nirvana Fountain is the holiest place. It contains the essence of real phoenixes' blood. This essence belongs to pure-blooded phoenixes' after all. Along with its miraculous effects of metamorphosis abilities, it can help transform any spiritual being and help them strengthen.

Plus, Ling Xian's natural talent was never ordinary. Naturally, he was borrowing this opportunity to breakthrough three stages!

Though unbelievable, for this to happen to him, who has always had achievements that defied logic, it made sense.

What could they do? He has never walked the standard path. If he sought after the normal path, he never would've achieved all he has today.

Remember that ever since he began to cultivate, only a few short decades passed but he was already at the peak of the original level. Today, all three of his qualities were at the peak!

That was something unbelievable. If this news gets circulated, the entire Tianzhou would be shaken!

Right now, the lady in green was in shock. Her eyes were flickering. She could not believe that after one transformation, Ling Xian's physique, Qi, and soul, have all reached the extremes of the original level!

This was shocking even for her.

"What a monster. No wonder Sister Yu gave him a Leaf of the Undead. She definitely saw this person's potential."

The woman appeared shocked. "He has the drive and talent. A monster like him has unlimited potential."

Then, she thought of somehow forming a bond with Ling Xian. However, she exhaled deeply and said in disappointment, "Oh well, I won't fight for him with Sister Yu."

Ling Xian didn't notice all her sighs and sadness because his heart was flooded with happiness.

His Qi has awakened and he has experienced a transformation of all qualities. He has reached the real extreme of the original level. This meant, from this moment on, he could defeat all enemies and suppress all Heaven's Favorites!

Just like Nan Gong Huai Yu, the person he met a few days ago. His capabilities today can start an aggressive fight against her!

Even if he fights three people solo, he has a chance of winning!

"The extremes of physique, soul, and Qi. Today, I no longer have to fear anyone!" The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. His eyes shone with anticipation.

He anticipated to clash with all the heroes in the world, to defeat all Heaven's Favorites in the world, and to dominate all enemies!

"Patiently wait for that day. It will be here soon."

Ling Xian continued to smile as he retracted his soul. The boiling volcano calmed down. Then, he shifted his gaze towards Huang Jiu Ge.

Though he has succeeded, Huang Jiu Ge remained standing and silent. She never opened her eyes. This meant, she has yet to succeed.

"Jiu Ge… hasn't succeeded?"

Ling Xian frowned but wasn't worried. Huang Jiu Ge was a half-blooded phoenix after all. Similar to the core with a pure-blooded phoenix, nothing bad will happen to her. It was merely a question of time.

Therefore, he merely smiled and sat back down in a lotus position. As he adjusted himself to get used to his spiritual energy that has grown 10 times stronger, he waited silently for Huang Jiu Ge.

Time passed by little by little.

After about a month, Huang Jiu Ge finally opened her eyes. At once, the flames in the volcano flared and the entire space quaked!
