We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

A moment ago~
"Is it finally going to break down? Is it still impossible? Is this really the end for me?" Shen Bailian felt the tearing sensation inside his body and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

As early as the accumulation phase of this Tribulation of the Three Nines, he already had a vague premonition in his heart.

Now, it's just that the premonition has become a reality.

Therefore, Shen Bailian could not be said to be disappointed. He knew that his physical body was already strong enough, or more accurately, it had far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.

In the Earth Origin Star Universe, a martial artist at the Embracing Moon Realm is very strong, but compared to Shen Bailian, they are no different from a newborn child compared to a normal adult.

The difference between the two is not exactly worlds apart, but it can certainly be described as an insurmountable chasm.

Even in this world, the Golden-haired Hou's physical strength is insufficient to withstand the first stage of the current Heavenly Tribulation of Transformation into a Dragon—the Nine Heavenly Tribulation.

Not to mention the subsequent Second Nine Heavenly Tribulation and Third Nine Heavenly Tribulation stages.

Therefore, after the Steel Body skill was upgraded to level five, Shen Bailian's strength had been amplified to an extremely high level. Even the True Immortals of this world might not be able to contend with him.

Of course, immortals and gods who can cultivate to the realm of true immortals are not fools.

The battle would only last a short while, allowing the immortals and gods to quickly ascertain Shen Bailian's general situation and then use various magical treasures to trap him.
Just like how we treated Sun Wukong when he was young and inexperienced.

"Hey~" Thinking of this, another idea suddenly popped into Shen Bailian's mind. Although it was a bit unethical, it would definitely benefit him: "Since that's the case, why don't I also cause a big scene?"

"Logically speaking, due to the different cultivation systems, the powerful figures and great beings in this world should only have a superficial understanding of my specific strength. As long as I can catch them off guard and then rob a batch of magical treasures..."

The more Shen Bailian thought about it, the more feasible this sudden idea seemed.

His goal was certainly not to emulate the Monkey King and wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace. Even if he had the intention and the courage, he lacked the corresponding strength.

However, while one cannot cause trouble in the Heavenly Court, it is a different story for the other reclusive cultivators and wandering immortals who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests.

In the Earthly Realm universe, what is the fundamental reason for humanity's greatest strength?
It is neither the cultivation system of martial artists, nor the Zhou Tian Star Array that covers the entire Great Xia Dynasty and spans tens of thousands of miles of territory, nor... but rather the Great Xia Dynasty Body Intelligence Hub that is constrained and gathers the essence of all the talents of the Great Xia Dynasty!

There is no other, it is unique!

Whether it's the complete cultivation system of martial artists or the establishment of the Zhou Tian Star Array, both are supported by the computing power provided by the Great Heavenly Body Intelligence Center.

That computing power, which can almost predict the future, is the foundation of the Great Xia's strength.

Therefore, as long as Shen Bailian can snatch back some samples and collect a certain amount of sample data, given time, he can use the Great Summer Body Intelligence Center to replicate some fakes, and then innovate and create new ones.

In this way, the martial arts strength and potential of the entire Great Xia will surely achieve another qualitative leap.

Of course, Shen Bailian no longer expects Great Xia's overall strength to achieve a qualitative leap in such a short period of time. He only hopes that Great Xia will not hold him back when he fights those gods.

This is the most taboo thing in combat, especially for someone like him who is not without ties.

"It should be almost done." Suddenly, Shen Bailian sensed something and immediately stopped his racing thoughts, turning his attention back to his own body, which was now cracked like a piece of porcelain that had been smashed on the ground.

next moment.

[Congratulations! Your skill "Iron Body" has been upgraded. Experience points +3!]

Congratulations! Your character level experience has increased by 3!

【…】

Congratulations! Your skill "Iron Body" has been upgraded!

Passive Skill: Golden Body LV1 (0/1000)

Sublimation, the ultimate sublimation!
As the skill "Iron Body" advanced, a ray of golden light suddenly rose from the depths of Shen Bailian's marrow and quickly spread out.

A tremendous change began to occur inside his body.

As Shen Bailian felt the changes inside his body, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a relaxed smile. After all the bitterness, the two tribulations of the Three Nine Heavens and the two excruciating pains had finally brought him the reward he deserved.

This is why, even though his body was on the verge of shattering during the heavenly tribulation, he could still vent his thoughts—he was confident, extremely confident.

Since embarking on the path of cultivation, his innate talent has never disappointed him.

This time will be no exception.

Of course, Shen Bailian has a variety of trump cards for dealing with desperate situations. Even when he is on the verge of death, he can still remain calm and composed in the face of a collapsing mountain.

Like today's situation, although for ordinary people it is a desperate moment of extreme danger.

But for Shen Bailian, this was just a small matter in his cultivation career. After all, since the [Shadow Follows] skill was activated, he had "died" more than just once or twice.

He has even attempted suicide three or four times.

"This time, it's truly a qualitative leap!" Shen Bailian calmed down, carefully feeling the immense power surging from the depths of his body, and became deeply intoxicated by it.

Power, unparalleled power, power so powerful it defies description!
This power gave Shen Bailian, who was in another world, an unusual sense of peace.

At the same time, his physique attribute value on the panel was changing moment by moment as the skill [Iron Body] advanced to the higher-level skill [Golden Body].

In a short time, he rose from level 37.3 to level 37.9, and after only a brief pause, he broke through the level 38.0 barrier, heading towards the peak of the Embracing Moon Realm.

This rate of improvement is nothing short of terrifying.

"What...what's going on?"

Xiaoqing stared at the sudden flash of golden light and was suddenly stunned. The fear in her heart melted away completely in no time, like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun.

She was extremely puzzled by this, wondering what had happened and how such a perfectly good Heavenly Tribulation of Transformation into a Dragon could suddenly be disrupted by so many unexpected events.

Along the way, her emotions were like a roller coaster ride, going up and down, perhaps one moment soaring to heaven and the next suddenly plummeting to hell...

The most important thing is this cycle, which is almost endless.

Although Xiaoqing sensed that the Heavenly Dao consciousness had shifted its gaze, she still dared not let her guard down. Instead, she began to rapidly circulate her cultivation technique, attempting to restore herself to her peak condition as quickly as possible.

As the saying goes, "Mountains crumble, and people run away." The people Xiaoqing trusts most now, besides herself and her sister Bai Suzhen, are far less reliable than before, even someone as powerful as Shen Bailian.

at the same time.

A glimmer of gold, two glimmers of gold... The brilliant and intense golden light filled this quiet and dark little world in an instant, even tinging the jet-black clouds with gold.

"Bam! Boom boom boom!"

At the same time, in this silent world, heartbeats, like thunderclaps, resounded once again, breaking through the almost stagnant silence.

"This...this voice is?" Xiaoqing was stunned. She suddenly raised her head, her eyes flashing intensely, her pupils shrinking, and she looked incredulously in a certain direction, in the direction of that man, that god-like man.

That thunderous voice gave people a feeling of upliftment, and as the voice grew louder and more penetrating, the gloom in her heart was swept away.

The sound made me feel positive and uplifted.

Xiaoqing was confused. She didn't understand; she really couldn't figure it out.

Why has this Heavenly Tribulation of Transformation into a Dragon become so turbulent? And why was Shen Bailian's aura already so weak just now, like a candle flickering in the wind, possibly to be extinguished completely at any moment?

But now it has "come back to life" once again.

Moreover, all these changes happened in an instant. Xiaoqing did not notice any fluctuations in magical power, let alone any magical artifacts.

Therefore, the change that occurred in Shen Bailian was internal, rather than due to external forces.

This is extremely frightening.

"He is indeed not just an ordinary martial artist..." Xiaoqing felt a warm sensation all over her body as she faced the golden light.

Logically speaking, snakes are considered yin, and their natural instincts should be to resist sunlight and warmth.

But for some reason, when Xiaoqing encountered this golden light, it was entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks. Even her own transformation speed accelerated several times under the illumination of the golden light.

It rapidly transforms into the body of a dragon.

Even so, Xiaoqing was still more than ten miles away from Shen Bailian. If she could be by Shen Bailian's side, she couldn't imagine how fast her transformation would be.

outside world.

"This golden light... why does it feel so familiar to me?" Bai Suzhen was stunned when she saw the domineering and spreading golden light. She frowned and searched her memory for the past.

Because she didn't know why, even though she only saw the golden light from a distance, her body, nature, soul, and even her bones and flesh developed an uncontrollable desire.

The desire to be enveloped in that golden light was as if being enveloped in that golden light would bring unimaginable benefits.

This feeling is so strange.

Moreover, this golden light gave Bai Suzhen an unusually familiar feeling, as if she had encountered a similar scene before.

Just as Bai Suzhen was searching through her past memories in her sea of ​​consciousness.

"pat~"

A crisp sound, like a door lock being opened, suddenly rang out. Bai Suzhen's consciousness abruptly raised her head and looked into the deepest part of her memory, where the door that had once been closed had now opened automatically.

"When did this door come into existence?" She paused for a moment, her brows furrowing slightly, not understanding why this door existed in her mind.

However, as the door opened, a long-sealed memory suddenly surfaced.

"???"

"What exactly is going on?" This time, Bai Suzhen was completely stunned, because the memory that suddenly surfaced revealed a fact.

That mysterious door had actually existed in her mind for a long time, but every time she noticed it, she wanted to explore it.

But as soon as he turns his head, if there is any delay, he doesn't know why, and he forgets about the matter altogether.

It was as if they had been under some forgotten spell.

Bai Suzhen, in her conscious form, frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally pushed open the door that had opened automatically for some unknown reason.

Suddenly, a stream of information, both unfamiliar and strangely familiar, burst forth.

"what?!"

"I've already met Guanyin so long ago!!!" Bai Suzhen's eyes were filled with astonishment. Her brows furrowed even more as she unbelievably reviewed this flood of memories again, and then a third time... a fourth time.

However, no matter how many times she flipped through the pages, the memories within remained unchanged.

The memories carried in the flood of information, simply put, are from hundreds of years ago, at the moment Xu Xuan died, Bai Suzhen was so heartbroken and her cultivation was damaged that she had to fall into a state of deep sleep in order to recover quickly.

This can be understood as hibernation.

In her dream, Guanyin, radiating golden light, suddenly appeared in Bai Suzhen's dream. She promised to preserve Xu Xuan's true spirit intact and send it into reincarnation.

Bai Suzhen had to promise Guanyin one thing: to find Xu Xuan's reincarnation five hundred years later and then marry him.

If this matter can be accomplished smoothly, Guanyin will grant Bai Suzhen an unimaginable benefit, including but not limited to ascending to heaven in broad daylight...

Bai Suzhen was initially skeptical of this unexpected surprise, but when Guanyin was enveloped in golden light, she became more aware of it.

To her surprise, she discovered that her previous injuries had been mostly healed in a short time, and her body even developed a craving for the golden light, a desire to devour it completely.

Unfortunately, the golden light that Guanyin shone was only displayed for a moment before it was withdrawn.

Bai Suzhen had a premonition that as long as she could be enveloped in that golden light for a long time—no, not for a long time, just a short hundred years—she could transform into a dragon, and not just an ordinary one.

The golden light that appeared in Bai Suzhen's dream was exactly the same as the golden light now emerging from the tribulation clouds. (End of Chapter)
