Chapter 946: 0946 The Body of an Immortal (First Update)
Mythical Realm…
Ye Qiu spoke softly, retracting the aura that had autonomously spread out. In that instant, it was as if the rivers on the earth had been drawn back to the heavens.
A mont later, everyone who felt the imposing presence of Ye Qiu’s mythical aura felt their hearts lighten, the pressure finally dissipating.
Many wiped the sweat off their foreheads, the mory of that awe-inspiring intensity lingering vividly in their minds.
Finally breaking through to the Mythical Realm, Ye Qiu was sowhat elated, though his emotions soon settled. At present, he preferred to maintain an ordinary state of mind.
Ye Qiu checked his body, recalling the transformation from the Legendary Realm to the Mythical Realm, enduring the impact of two shackles. His physical body had now undergone a definitive qualitative change.
“The Human-Immortal Body.”
Ye Qiu moved slightly, his figure instantly disappearing from where he stood, reappearing atop a cloud in mid-air. Now, he could walk on air effortlessly, no longer seeing the sky as a forbidden domain.
Ye Qiu lightly swung his fist, his movents soundless. He felt that if he so desired, he might even be able to tear through the void.
Such formidable physical power.
Ye Qiu was deeply satisfied. Having reached the Mythical Realm, standing against others of the sa realm would no longer require much effort. Though he had just stepped into the level of myths, Ye Qiu felt as if slaying others in the sa realm would be as easy as mowing grass or dicing vegetables. Only those at the late Mythical Realm’s peak could demand a hint of respect, and even then, others in the Mythical Realm were re ants.
The golden blood within his body flowed and coursed throughout. As Ye Qiu slightly activated his Mythical Realm power, his golden blood would boil, providing him strength.
Ye Qiu also discovered that his organs had grown unnervingly powerful. Even if stabbed clean through by a sword, it seed as if nothing would happen, given their extraordinary regenerative ability. Little wonder then that when he had slain Wei Ziqing’s ntor, even piercing through the heart with a blade didn’t kill him—primarily due to the terrifying resilience of a Mythical Realm physical body. In a certain sense, it was no longer re mortal flesh but the Human-Immortal Body.
Now, Ye Qiu too possessed this Human-Immortal Body.
Surveying his physical form, Ye Qiu inspected his Dantian and found that it had significantly expanded—at least ten tis its previous size. At the center of the Dantian, the Black Fla Core had also grown considerably, suspended quietly at its heart, surrounded by spiraling currents of Spiritual Energy that ceaselessly poured in.
The absorption speed of Spiritual Energy was stunning.
Ye Qiu marveled at how the Black Fla Core’s capacity to absorb Spiritual Energy had increased four or five tis compared to before. Even without actively drawing in the energy of heaven and earth, the core automatically absorbed and integrated it, transforming it into his own power. It was extraordinary—as if the core possessed a life of its own. As his strength advanced, it would also grow and evolve constantly.
Yet, one detail made Ye Qiu furrow his brow. He noticed faint markings on the surface of the Black Fla Core. Looking closer, his heart clenched—they were the sa markings that appeared during blackening!
The blackened markings symbolized what? The Sect Leader of Rakshasa Gate had once said they were a curse—a curse borne from deep hatred toward the Du Gu clan.
Now, even after breaking through to the Mythical Realm, this curse could still imprint itself onto the Black Fla Core—the source of his power. Ye Qiu couldn’t shake the feeling that this foreboded ill.
He could reduce his use of the blackened power, minimizing its influence, but the blackened markings had grown increasingly prominent alongside his strength. That left Ye Qiu anxious; those markings might beco a hidden danger, complicating his plans for revenge against the ancient clans of the old lands.
Ye Qiu attempted to erase the markings from the Black Fla Core. Yet they seed rooted deeply within, immovable even under the sharp carving of a blade. They would always reappear.
In the end, left with no alternative, Ye Qiu reluctantly left them alone, presently unable to devise a solution.
Fixing his attention on the Black Fla Core for a while, his gaze eventually landed upon the remnant eyeball. This eerie relic, acquired from the magic box, had birthed the Black Fla power. Now, with his breakthrough, the eyeball had grown increasingly complete, faintly exuding a vitality akin to having just been plucked from soone’s eye socket.
Having such an object within his Dantian was undeniably unsettling. Yet Ye Qiu benefited greatly from it, gaining power from the Black Fla far exceeding that of Martial Artists in the sa realm.
This remnant eyeball could even peer into rules, its abilities bordering on the miraculous. Ye Qiu valued it more highly than his own ancient strength.
This was because, ever since acquiring the remnant eyeball, Ye Qiu’s power had begun to soar at incredible speeds.
Whose eye was this? What secrets did it hold? Ye Qiu couldn’t say. But he sensed that as his strength grew greater, there might co a day when the eyeball itself would reveal everything to him.
The remnant eyeball continued to absorb power from the Black Fla Core—though not much, just a little, as if nurturing itself.
After closely examining his body from every angle, Ye Qiu’s focus shifted to his spiritual power, another vital aspect of his abilities. Regrettably, despite breaking through, his spiritual power hadn’t increased much. However, the ntal space within his mind had expanded significantly, enough to hold much more spiritual strength than before.
Once Ye Qiu had thoroughly assessed every facet of his being, his thoughts finally extended outward. Jin Yu stood before him, feet planted firmly on the ground in an upright stance, resembling a penguin. This comical sight made it clear that the creature was genuinely happy for Ye Qiu’s breakthrough.
A short distance away, Song Jie and his two companions, deterred by Jin Yu’s vigilance, dared not approach but kept their eyes fixed on Ye Qiu. After all, Ye Qiu was their pillar of support, and they feared for his safety above all.
Ye Qiu beckoned to them, signaling them to approach as he asked how many days he’d spent in cultivation.
“Only three days or so.” Ye Qiu nodded slightly.
Now, Ye Qiu’s aura felt as if a celestial being had descended from the Nine Heavens. This only deepened the reverence Song Jie and the others felt toward him, as they could faintly sense Ye Qiu had taken another monuntal step in martial arts.
This realization delighted the trio, strengthening their faith in Ye Qiu’s protection. With his power growing, anyone daring to challenge him would undoubtedly face the cost of his staggering might.
However, Ye Qiu’s next words left the three utterly stunned.
“By the way, just so you know—I’m planning to leave the Capital City in a few days. I won’t be staying in China. I’ll be heading to a far-off land, and I don’t know when I’ll return.”
Ye Qiu was leaving?
Upon hearing this, Song Jie and the others froze in shock. Ye Qiu was the safeguard of their Iron Three families. If he departed, they couldn’t guarantee other families wouldn’t take aim at them in his absence.
Understanding their concerns, Ye Qiu added, “If anything happens while I’m gone, you can seek help from the Dragon Group. I’ll make sure to inform the Dragon Group.”
For the Iron Three families, this was as much as Ye Qiu could do. He had never intended to grow any family into a major powerhouse within the Capital City. Everything the Song, Jiang, and Luo families had achieved was due to his silent consent. However, now that he had broken through to the Mythical Realm, he could no longer remain in the Capital. Ultimately, he had to return to the ancient lands to exact revenge for the Du Gu clan.
This was his mission. And now, he possessed the strength to fulfill it!
