Mysterious mirror hanging high

Jing Yu instinctively felt that something was wrong. After all, thunder magic was a first-class offensive technique. In terms of killing power, it could even be compared with swordsmanship.

Such a law that greatly increases combat power has never been able to exercise power, resulting in the throne of the law being vacant.

Jing Yu would never believe that there was no big trap in this.

But this is just Jing Yu's personal guess, because there is still one thing that is difficult to explain - if there really is a big flaw in achieving the status of a Taoist master through thunder magic, how could Taoist Master Shenmeng let Lu Yingzhao fall into this trap?

"Could it be that if you want to master the power of thunder, you must have a divine destiny like Fellow Daoist Lu? Ordinary cultivators cannot bear such a great cause and effect. If they rashly plan to achieve enlightenment through thunder, they will most likely die along the way."

Jing Yu thought about it but couldn't figure it out, so he simply put the matter aside for the time being. After all, none of his relatives and friends specialized in thunder magic. Even if there was, none of them could be called a Taoist master, so there was naturally no need to consider such a distant future.

"The Taoist... is too far away from us. Let's first deal with the matters in the lower realm and think about how to ascend." Jing Yuyan said.

Lu Yingzhao smiled and said, "In fact, if I had to stay here to deal with the great calamity of the Immortal Continent, I would have been ready to ascend by now."

"What?" Jing Yu was stunned. "Ascending to the immortal realm in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation?"

"I've seen quite a few jade slips that record the experiences of previous generations, and I estimate I should have about a 70% chance of success."

Lu Yingzhao pondered, "If I can advance to the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, it's a 100% chance... In fact, if you want to ascend to the Immortal Realm, it ultimately depends on your foundation in the Immortal Dao and your magical powers and treasures... Realm isn't the decisive factor."

"Even for ascension, the ability to survive is far more important than the ability to attack... Many late-stage Spiritualization cultivators who focus on killing may not be much better than mid-stage Spiritualization cultivators who focus on survival when ascending to the immortal realm."

Jing Yu was shocked and said, "If any other cultivator said this, I would think he was just bragging. But you... I'm afraid you're just being modest."

Lu Yingzhao smiled and said, "The Immortal Continent's great calamity is approaching. I don't know when the Divine Cauldron cultivators will descend to the mortal realm. I think it's too late for you to cultivate your Qi and transform into a spirit. You might as well focus on cultivating your body. Perhaps you can reach the spirit transformation level before the great calamity arrives."

"In the midst of a catastrophe, if one does not have the combat power of a spirit-transforming level, even protecting oneself would be difficult."

Jing Yu nodded: "I hope the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty can give me a few hundred more years..."

[Year 1450 of the Changsheng calendar]

The bottom of the inland sea, the Qianlong Abyss

At the bottom of this abyss where the sun never shines, a human-shaped stone statue is half buried in the soil at the bottom of the abyss, silent and motionless.

It was not completely dead silent here. The cold and heavy dragon vein evil energy turned into tangible objects - several dark blue dragon-shaped shadows that were as solid as substance. They roared silently, carrying a huge pressure that was enough to crush mountains. Like the most violent forging hammers, they rammed the human-shaped stone statue in the center over and over again, endlessly.

This stone statue is Jing Yu, who is in the deepest level of physical practice.

His flesh, blood, meridians, and even his Nascent Soul were all wrapped and solidified by the extremely cold and yin dragon veins at the bottom of the abyss and the power of his own bitter body, forming a hard stone shell comparable to ten thousand year old black jade.

At this time, the surface of the stone statue was already covered with crisscrossing deep cracks.

Finally, under the fierce impact of the dark blue dragon shadow that had accumulated unprecedented power, accompanied by a loud noise that shook the abyss, but was then dissipated into a dull tremor by the endless sea water—

boom!

The entire stone statue collapsed, revealing a naked, strong man inside.

The shattered stone shells were not ordinary soil and rocks, but shimmered with a faint jade-like luster. They slowly dissolved in the high-pressure seawater, turning into pure energy stars that danced like fireflies. Finally, they were swept away by several gray and mysterious lights and were sucked into the man's body.

At this moment, Jing Yu's Ku Du body is undergoing earth-shaking changes.

The core of transformation lies in the bone marrow.

Strands of extremely pure green light, like jade juice with life, flow and gather quietly in the bone ducts.

Wherever it passed, the old bone marrow melted like ice and snow, and was completely replaced by the green jade marrow liquid that contained terrifying vitality and toughness.

This process is not gentle. The fine structure inside the bones constantly disintegrates and reorganizes under the flushing and condensation of the green chalcedony fluid, making a subtle but dense "crackling" sound, as if countless precious jade artifacts are being carefully knocked and reshaped inside.

Every "crackling" sound means the purification and sublimation of the bone marrow level, and a big step towards the essence of chalcedony.

Jing Yu endured unspeakable pain that came from the very source of life, but this pain was the fuel for transformation.

As the chalcedony fluid filled every bone marrow cavity and began to deeply fuse with the bone itself, Jing Yu's entire skeleton began to undergo fundamental changes.

The surface of the bones was no longer a warm white, but was quickly covered with a deep, restrained, and vibrant jade green color.

This jade-like luster does not just appear on the surface, but instead shines through from deep within the bone marrow, giving the bones a translucent jade-like texture that is delicate and warm, yet contains an indestructible sense of heaviness.

The dragon-shaped phantoms did not stop attacking. Instead, they each used all their strength to collide with Jing Yu's physical body more frequently.

Under this extreme tempering, his jade bones not only did not break, but became more crystal clear. The boiling jade marrow fluid deep in his bone marrow gradually subsided, completely solidified and sublimated, and perfectly merged with the bones.

hum-

A clear and melodious sound, like the sound of a peerless jade chime being struck, resonated from deep within Jing Yu's jade skeleton and instantly swept across the entire bottom of Qianlong Abyss.

The sound penetrated tens of millions of tons of sea water and echoed between the walls of the abyss.

Jing Yu suddenly opened his eyes, and a deep jade-green luster first flowed in the depths of his eyes, and then the light retreated and returned to its depth.

He slowly stretched his body, and his flesh, skin, and internal organs began to grow and cover again with this reborn jade skeleton as the core.

The new flesh and blood contained unimaginable surging power and vitality, and a jade-like halo was faintly flowing beneath the originally light golden skin.

He moved his body slightly, and the heavy sea water around him seemed to lose its resistance. All his bones were unobstructed, and the flow of qi and blood was no longer stagnate, just like jade liquid flowing freely in a transparent jade tube.

Every move he made naturally caused the surrounding dragon veins' evil spirits to resonate and resonate, as if he had become a part of the dragon veins at the bottom of the abyss.

Chalcedony realm!

At this moment, Jing Yu's physical body strength, vitality and potential have finally crossed that chasm and completely entered the next level of body refining of the Ku Du treasure body - the Jadeite Realm, which is comparable to the Divine Transformation level in the Qi training system!
