Absolute Destiny Game.

Chapter 493 Golden Core Success, Transcending Mortality and Entering Sainthood

Xiao Jie opened his backpack and took the two Dragon Balls out of the equipment slot. Together with the North Sea Demon Dragon's Dragon Ball, he placed the three Dragon Balls side by side in his backpack.

I opened the skill list, dragged out the Demon Refining Technique, and started refining.

This dragon ball is extraordinary when refined. The white dragon ball floats in mid-air. As the Demon Refining Technique is activated, surging spiritual energy is wildly released and pours into Xiao Jie's body. A large amount of spiritual energy swirls and lingers around him, forming a spiritual energy vortex.

As the spiritual energy was absorbed, golden light appeared between his eyes, which was very strange. The golden light gradually disappeared only after the refining was completed.

System notification: Successfully refined the White Emperor's Dragon Pearl, gaining 6895 spiritual energy points.

System notification: You have gained 27475 experience points.

System notification: You have mastered two demonic magic skills: [Dragon Thunder Control: Thunderous Might] and [Dragon Thunder Control: Heavenly Thunder Spell].

System notification: You have obtained 38 Dragon Essence Points. You have unlocked an Essence Accumulation Progress [Dragon Transformation], with a current progress of 38%.

System notification: Your Ancient Qi Cultivation Technique level has increased, and you have successfully unlocked the eighth realm—the Golden Core Realm. Legendary trait [Great Perfection of Golden Core] has been unlocked.

System notification: Due to your innate talent 'Innate Comprehension', your comprehension has increased by 1 point...

As the Dragon Ball was refined, a flood of system notifications appeared instantly.

Xiao Jie read it carefully and thought, "Not bad, not bad at all. As expected of a Dragon Ball, the rewards for refining one are truly plentiful."

They gave me over a dozen attribute points.

The Qi Refining Technique has been upgraded by one level, and the Essence Points have also been increased significantly.

Xiao Jie did not hesitate and continued refining.

This time, he began refining the dragon pearl of the Black Dragon Xuan Chen.

The black dragon ball floated in the air, spewing out spiritual energy...

The crowd behind them stared in disbelief as two legendary pieces of equipment were consumed in the blink of an eye. This was especially true of the people brought by Dongfang Sheng, who rarely even saw purple equipment. They were dumbfounded to see orange equipment being used as consumables.

Xiao Jie, however, paid no attention to what the people behind him thought.

System notification: Successfully refined the Black Dragon Xuan Chen's Dragon Pearl, gaining 5970 spiritual energy points.

System notification: You have gained 24963 experience points.

System notification: You have mastered 2 demonic magic skills: [Water Control Divine Power: Divine Dragon Absorbs Water] and [Water Control Divine Power: Driving Tides and Surfing Waves].

System notification: You have gained 36 Dragon Essence. Your accumulated Dragon Essence has increased, and the current progress is 74%.

This time, I didn't improve my Qi Refining level; I'm still more than a thousand points away from the next level.

Xiao Jie calculated that this way, he definitely wouldn't reach the maximum level, and wouldn't trigger the enhanced Heavenly Punishment.

Then go ahead!
Xiao Jie activated the last Dragon Ball—the Dragon Ball of the North Sea Demon Dragon.

Countless streams of spiritual energy were drawn from the Dragon Ball and poured into Xiao Jie's body...

System notification: Successfully refined the Dragon Pearl of the North Sea Demon Dragon Han Yuan, gaining 7216 spiritual energy points.

System notification: You have gained 31482 experience points. Your level has increased to level 39.

System notification: You have mastered 2 demonic magic skills: [Demon Magic: Enlightenment of Aquatic Creatures] and [Demon Magic: Water Dragon Wave].

System notification: Your Ancient Qi Cultivation Technique level has increased, and you have successfully unlocked the ninth realm—the Transcendent Realm. Legendary trait [Transcendent Sainthood] unlocked.

System notification: Due to your innate talent 'Innate Comprehension', your comprehension has increased by 1 point...

Success! !

Xiao Jie felt a surge of excitement. Although he was not surprised by the result and had already foreseen the outcome of refining the three Dragon Balls, the fact that he would gain so many abilities still put his mind at ease.

Those three Dragon Balls weren't wasted.

Looking at my attribute panel, it has undergone a complete transformation in just a few minutes.

First, two more legendary traits have been added.

Trait 8: Golden Elixir Perfection – After swallowing a single golden elixir, my fate is no longer in the hands of heaven. (Click to see specific effects)

Trait 9: Transcendence – Standing atop the clouds, a sage whose brilliance shines eternally. (Click to see the specific effect)

Xiao Jie immediately checked it. The effect of the Golden Core being fully formed surprised and delighted him.

Once the Golden Core is fully formed, spiritual energy will condense into a Golden Core within the body, somewhat similar to the inner core of the demon race. From then on, spiritual energy will no longer easily dissipate, and the rate of spiritual energy loss will be reduced by 99%.

In this way, even if one cannot cultivate immortality, at least one will not have to worry about dissipating one's spiritual energy.

At the same time, due to the effect of the Golden Elixir, the player's stamina, internal energy, and mana recovery speed are increased by 300%.

The effect of transcending the ordinary and entering sainthood is even more powerful, breaking through the skill level limit. The player's highest skill level is now the Sage level.

Originally, all skills could only be upgraded to LV5, which is the Grandmaster level.

Taking knife skills as an example, they are divided into knife skills beginner, knife skills proficiency, knife skills expert, knife skills master, and knife skills grandmaster.

However, with the attainment of the extraordinary and saintly qualities, a new sage level is added above the grandmaster level. Not only is the effect stronger, but once you advance to the sage level, the skill will also undergo an extraordinary evolution.

This alone is enough to turn the rotten into the miraculous.

If swordsmanship were upgraded to the Saint level, who knows what amazing performance it would have, not to mention that spell skills can also be upgraded to the Saint level.

However, it will obviously take a lot of time for this legendary trait to show its power, so there's no need to rush it.

What truly brings astonishing combat power is the newly acquired dragon essence.

Dragon Essence (100%)

Essence Effect 1: Dragon Thunder Control. The dragon essence within you grants you the magical ability to control thunder. You can cultivate thunder magic and manipulate lightning, increasing the power of all your thunder spells by 30%.

Essence Effect 2: Water Manipulation. The dragon essence within you grants you the magical ability to control water. You can cultivate water-based spells, up to the Master level, and all your water-based spells are increased in power by 30%.

Essence Effect 3: Dragon Transformation (Mythical Creature). You can activate the Dragon Essence within you to transform into the Xuanming Abyss Dragon, a hybrid dragon with the bloodlines of the White Dragon, Black Dragon, and North Sea Demon Dragon, for 180 seconds.

Skill cost: 1000 mana.

During this period, you cannot use your base skills, but can only use the Xuanming Jiyuanlong's skill modules. After transforming, you will gain the following attribute boosts.

体质增加：500%，力量增加：650%，耐力增加：800%。精神增加：600%。灵性增加：500%，法力值恢复速度提升300%。

Basic combat skills: Dragon Tail Swing, Dragon Claw Strike, Dragon Claw Grab, Dragon Devour, Azure Dragon Falling from the Sky, Fierce Dragon Charge.

Basic sorcery (water manipulation): Flooding, Driving Tides and Waves, Raging Torrents, Dragon's Breath, Water Dragon Wave, Cold Tide Technique, Enlightening Aquatic Creatures.

Biological Specialties: Dragon Scale Armor (Passive), Dragon Might (Passive), High-Resistance Skin (Passive), Cloud Riding (Passive), Frosty Breath.

Innate Divine Powers (Dragon Thunder Control): Wind and Clouds Rise, Thunderclouds Descend, Thunderous Force, Heavenly Thunder Technique, Thunder Claw.

Essence Introduction: This dragon essence is formed by absorbing the spiritual energy of the White Dragon Bai Di Zi, the Black Dragon Xuan Chen, and the North Sea Demon Dragon Han Yuan. It can transform into a hybrid dragon, the Xuanming Jiyuan Dragon, to fight. Dragons are mythical creatures, said to possess the vast divine power to control thunder and drive rivers, lakes, and seas.

When you obtain this essence, you also gain some of the power from myths and legends.

Damn, it only lasted for 3 minutes.

Xiao Jie was slightly disappointed. Three minutes is fine, after all, the strength of this dragon far exceeds that of ordinary spirit transformations.

Three minutes is enough to decide the winner.

With the added advantage of their professional talents, they can gain extra time to transform by consuming mana.

Moreover, Xiao Jie felt that with the strength of their lineup, they would most likely not need to use this move at all to deal with True Person Hongchen.

In addition to transforming into a demonic dragon, Xiao Jie also gained another benefit: his demonic spellcasting level reached LV4—Master of Demonic Arts.

In other words, one can now learn about avatars.

Xiao Jie opened his backpack and double-clicked the skill book for his avatar to learn it.

System notification: You have learned the legendary sorcery [Avatar].

This spell is extremely important; whether this operation can be won easily as he planned depends on it.

You should know that Master Hongchen knows the terrain of the Konglao Mountain Heavenly Waterfall Cave like the back of his hand, while they are completely clueless. Although Xiao Jie went there once, he didn't stay for long and had long forgotten the terrain.

The others were completely clueless. If they were to actually fight inside the Heavenly Waterfall Cave, the complex terrain would make it impossible to take advantage of their numbers.

Moreover, it's possible that the True Man of the Mortal World might have set up some traps or restrictions in the Heavenly Waterfall Cave.

Besides that, there's another problem. The immortal once said that there are restrictions set up by immortals around Mount Konglao, and ordinary people can't enter. Although I have my own group, I'm not sure if we can get in. So the best way is to bring out True Person Hongchen to fight.

To achieve this, we must focus on this externalized manifestation.
