Chapter 1048 - 1071: Early Stage of the 9th Heaven Celestial Profound Immortal Realm
Then, Chu Lin and Chu Qing entered the Reincarnation Bracelet, and upon seeing the Fire Golden Body and Earth Golden Body, Chu Linfeng suddenly had an idea, "Shouldn’t it be fine to send the Fire Golden Body to obtain the Fire Spirit Fruit? After all, it was created directly from the Fire Attribute."
"Big brother, if you use this golden body, your clone might be destroyed. The fire element level of your Fire Golden Body is too low; encountering Celestial Fire could result in the fire element being consumed directly by Celestial Fire. Surely you understand the consequences," Chu Qing said.
Chu Linfeng was puzzled as he looked at Chu Qing, wondering when this girl became so smart, knowing even more than himself; it was indeed unexpected.
"Qing’er, how did you learn about these things, like the matters of the Ice Spirit Fruit and Fire Spirit Fruit? I feel like you’ve changed into a different person," said Chu Linfeng.
"Big brother, I’m not a child anymore. Haven’t you noticed how tall I’ve become? Nowadays, all sorts of information inexplicably appear in my mind, although many of them I don’t quite understand, like the things about the Divine Realm’s pinnacle and the War of Gods. However, the Ice and Fire Spirit Fruit matter is very clear," Chu Qing responded.
Chu Linfeng had a hunch that Chu Qing and Chu Tong were not ordinary Innate Spiritual Treasures. They likely came from the Divine Realm and were related to him; otherwise, they wouldn’t steadfastly follow him.
"So that’s how it is. You should cultivate as well and wake me up when the time is right, so we can go out to get the Fire Spirit Fruit once it matures; otherwise, not obtaining it would be regrettable," said Chu Linfeng.
Currently, the strength of the Fire Golden Body and Earth Golden Body has reached the Late Golden Immortal stage. Because Chu Linfeng is absent, it’s extremely difficult for them to achieve breakthroughs; after all, they need him at the final moment to succeed.
Chu Linfeng and Chu Qing arrived at the spot where the Immortal Crystals are buried. Now, the Immortal Spirit Qi inside the Reincarnation Bracelet is incredibly dense. Chu Linfeng knew he had never interacted much with the Artifact Spirit of the Immortal Crystals; it was his oversight, and if it suddenly stopped working one day, it would have severe consequences for him.
"Xiaojing, how have you been lately? We’ve left you here while we were away, and I feel guilty about it," Chu Linfeng said.
"This place is great! Now I’ve come to like it here. Look, Immortal Spirit Qi is everywhere, emanating from me, and the scenery here is captivating, far better than my previous location," a little girl’s voice came from the earth.
"Then that’s good, big brother will be cultivating here for a hundred years, relying on you for Immortal Spirit Qi!" Chu Linfeng said.
"No problem, just cultivate in peace; I’ll do my best to satisfy your needs."
Having acquired such a heaven-defying treasure, Chu Linfeng worried his luck was too good to be true, fearing he might get struck by lightning. After calming his Heart Spirit, he began frantically absorbing the Immortal Spirit Qi.
Once the Immortal Spirit Qi entered his body, it immediately transformed into Chaos Immortal Liquid, and through repeated absorption and circulation, Chu Linfeng entered a state of complete immersion. Time seemed irrelevant to him, and eighty years flew by.
By now, Chu Linfeng had successfully broken through to the Nine Heavens Profound Immortal realm, finally realizing the difference in crossing a realm. The power of a Daluo Golden Immortal is strong, but the power of a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal is tenfold.
Now he felt confident in challenging the Flame Immortal Monarch, assured he wouldn’t be defeated; if not able to kill the opponent, at least severely injure him, achieving a draw at minimum.
With twenty years remaining, Chu Linfeng didn’t want to waste any time. Now that he had reached the Nine Heavens Profound Realm, he thought it was time to cultivate the penultimate move of the Seven Extremes Slash—Divine Slash. Only by cultivating the Divine Slash could he establish himself in the Immortal Realm and gain the qualification to slay an Immortal Emperor.
Regarding borrowing Star Power, he currently had no opportunity nor desire to think about it; he believed twenty years was enough to cultivate Divine Slash to perfection.
He slowly began to comprehend the usage of Divine Slash, and now with Sword Spirit gone, he had to rely on himself entirely. But he found Divine Slash incredibly profound, vastly different from the previous Five Slashes.
Divine Slash indeed required borrowing the Power of Heaven and Earth, yet now, having reached the Early Stage of Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, the method of executing Divine Slash couldn’t fully present itself in his mind—only a vague impression remaining. Its execution required powerful Immortal Spirit Power, needing at least Mid-stage or Late-stage Immortal Monarch.
However, due to Chu Linfeng’s constitution, reaching the Mid-stage of Nine Heavens Profound Realm sufficed. Execution of Divine Slash possessed destructive, heaven-defying power, not to be easily deployed; overuse would invite Celestial Punishment.
Chu Linfeng became a bit frustrated; borrowing the Power of Heaven and Earth was his most daunting challenge. Last time, borrowing the Star Trace within him, achieving resonance with a star of the Big Dipper’s Star Power, nearly proved fatal.
Moreover, a critical point was needing to seal his Chaotic Immortal Power, requiring a safe place to utilize. However, he only had a hundred short years, and if stars existed within the Reincarnation Bracelet, Chu Linfeng needn’t worry about these things.
Yet when Chu Linfeng delved into the earth layers, the Immortal Realm forces underwent some changes. Xuanyuan Changtian’s group returned to Xuanyuan Emperor Palace and immediately confined Xuanyuan Yueyan in a secret chamber, forbidding her to leave until Shangguan Luoyang was found. Meanwhile, they used powerful Immortal Spirit Power to seal the chamber.
Xuanyuan Yueyan was indifferent to these outcomes, knowing Chu Linfeng would eventually come to rescue her. She also viewed this so-called familial bond as fleeting, realizing she was a mere bargaining tool in her father’s hands.
Xuanyuan Yueyan knew Chu Linfeng would be cultivating within the Reincarnation Bracelet. Upon emerging, his realm would undoubtedly be high, and he would soon ascend to the Divine Realm. Without diligent cultivation, she wouldn’t follow him there. Even entering the Reincarnation Bracelet, she couldn’t emerge quickly.
Therefore, the day she was confined, she began cultivating hard, while Lin Ruoxi, the Ice and Snow Fairy, and Mei Xiangxin were taken directly to the Dream-Spirit Sacred Domain by Fairy Lingxiao, receiving special care due to Chu Linfeng.
Upon arrival at the Dream-Spirit Sacred Domain, the three women also started solitary cultivation. Their experiences in New Capital City vividly reminded them that their lack of strength accounted for the situation; otherwise, Chu Linfeng wouldn’t have been forced to hide underground.
Time swiftly passed, and all three women made significant progress. However, one oversight the Ice and Snow Fairy made was the captive Immortal Infant within her Three Profound Tower. Now, the Immortal Infant had grown powerful, ready to breach the tower’s restrictions and escape any moment...
