Chapter 488: Death? New Life! (Part 3)
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Bei Feng’s soul unconsciously took over Lu Qintian’s memories.
Compared to Bei Feng’s soul, Lu Qintian’s soul was simply too weak. Even if he took in the other’s memories, it wouldn’t affect him in the slightest. He wouldn’t turn into another person because of it, either.
But if Lu Qintian’s soul was around the same level as Bei Feng’s, then after fusing the two together, a completely new character might have been created.
Fortunately, in this situation, Bei Feng only needed to adjust his condition quietly for a short period and he would be fine.
While readjusting Lu Qintian’s body, the remnant medicinal energies that’d remained in his body from the many years of eating countless spirit herbs and pills began to be refined out.
As Bei Feng’s soul and the compatibility of this body grew higher and higher, his soul began to unconsciously control this body to revolve the Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique.
While Tianmo Planet was over a hundred times larger the Earth, the density of the Heaven Earth Lingqi was also thicker by at least a hundredfold!
Although it still couldn’t be compared with many of the true cultivation planets, it was umpteen times better than Earth!
Just as Lu Qintian’s three sons were quarreling among themselves, a powerful surge of Heaven Earth Lingqi began to pour into Lu Qintian’s body!
“What’s going on?!”
“Such a huge amount of Heaven Earth Lingqi, is father going to break through?!”
“His lifespan is clearly at its end already, but because he was unwilling to just pass away like that, is he trying to make the last gamble?”
Everyone immediately quieted down as they looked at Lu Qintian’s figure nervously.
‘That undying old fart, he actually still hopes to break through!’
Zhu Mei face was stormy as she cursed internally.
‘Grandpa, you must succeed!’
Lu Buhui’s face was wreathed with nervousness.
‘Father is already so old, and with his lifespan at an end, wanting to achieve another breakthrough is too difficult. It’s a 90 percent chance of death!’
Lu Liangyou gripped his fists anxiously, but there was nothing he could do but watch.
Large amounts of Heaven Earth Lingqi surged without end into Bei Feng’s new body as if it were a bottomless hole.
A large portion of the lingqi was used to reform the physical body. The countless cells in the body were splitting and reforming at high speed, and the body’s hidden injuries from the past were being mended quickly. Some of the atrophied veins that’d degenerated beyond recognition were also being opened and widened!
The wrinkles on his face began to disappear bit by bit as the body slowly recovered to its peak state.
Finally, the flow of Heaven Earth Ling Qi became so thick a fog had formed around Bei Feng’s new body, wrapping him up within it and obscuring him from sight.
“That’s strange, there shouldn’t be this much Heaven Earth Lingqi even if he’s breaking through to the second layer of the Hundred Year realm!” Sun Quan mumbled dully. This phenomenon… it shouldn’t be so exaggerated even if he was breaking into the third layer!
Lu Baiyu thought for a while and said, “Perhaps it’s because Father’s foundations were too thick. From as far back as I can remember, Father has been cultivating day and night, regardless of rain or shine. Medicinal baths, spirit herbs, precious pills, he’d been using those things consistently and to date, he’s already 92 years old. I don’t think that anyone has ever remained in the Hundred Years realm for such a long period before.”
Sun Quan nodded and said, “Maybe this is really a result of his firm foundations. That’s the only probable explanation.”
But as to whether the old man could really manage to break through, he wasn’t that optimistic.
As one’s age grew, the difficulty to reach the next level would be much higher. That was because when one’s body aged, their blood and Qi would dry out and turn more lethargic. Not to mention a 92 years old man whose lifespan was at its end—the difficulty was immense.
Everyone soon left the room and stood outside.
As large amounts of Heaven Earth Lingqi surged over, Bei Feng’s new body began a thorough transformation. The lifeless blood was passed out of the body through the pores on the skin.
The skeleton was shattered bit by bit, and new one grew out continously. This was the true meaning of remolding the body!
In the deepest parts of Bei Feng’s sea of consciousness, countless stands of gray mist formed a large net, linking every cell of the body and every corner together. Finally, the last strand of gray mist directly slammed into Bei Feng’s soul!
“Boom!”
A sound like the first lightning out of the primordial chaos sounded out, and countless intricate patterns appeared on Bei Feng’s soul. The patterns were exactly the same as the one the gray mist had formed on Bei Feng’s new body!
Gray light burst out of Bei Feng’s soul, and countless patterns were reflected on every corner of his new body as well. The patterns on the body and the soul—one light, one dark—completely fused and reacted to each other!
The deeply unconscious soul deep inside Bei Feng’s sea of consciousness suddenly opened its eyes. In the outside world, Lu Qintian’s eyes also flickered before snapping open as well!
A faint electric bolt flashed three cun outside of Bei Feng’s eyes in the instant that he opened his eyes. This was a phenomenon that only happened when both the soul and mental power reached a certain level of power, and was termed as producing electricity through emptiness!
This strange phenomenon only appeared for a brief moment before disappearing completely. A hazy and confused look hung in his eyes.
Lu Qintian’s memories once again flashed through his mind rapidly, and countless images presented themselves to him. As Bei Feng watched on, he felt like a stranger looking on from the side.
This was an advantage of his soul being strong enough. If someone whose soul was weak were to experience this, they would not be viewing the memories like a movie as Bei Feng was doing. Instead, they would sink into the memories, reliving everything as Lu Qintian had done and felt.
‘I’ve been given a new life, but my losses are heavy. Fortunately, the stellar acupoints created through the Minor Dark Sky Breathing Technique are imprinted onto the soul, meaning that the Dhrama manifestations that I’ve created are still there. As for this new stellar acupoint, I wonder how long it’ll take for me to finish developing it. At least the evil source energy no longer has any effects on me now.’
The haziness in Bei Feng’s eyes disappeared, replaced with a calm gaze akin to an unfathomably deep lake. After a brief scan of his new body, Bei Feng felt so miserable that he wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood. His spatial ring had been destroyed long ago. That was all his possesions! Fortunately, the Star Gods that he’d birthed through the Minor Dark Sky Breathing Technique and his Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique’s Dharma manifestations obtained through great difficulties were still there. Apart from that, his biggest headache which was the evil source energy was also finally resolved.
“Tianmu Planet. Heaven Connecting Towers. Interesting,” Bei Feng muttered to himself. The more he looked through Lu Qintian’s memories, the brighter the gleam in his eyes was.
‘The martial path here is much more glorious than on Earth. There are four layers in the Hundred Year realm; so, going by Earth’s standards, the peak of the first layer of the Hundred Year realm is equivalent to the peak Evolved Jing realm. The second layer is equivalent to the Xiantian realm, and the third layer should be the same as our Controlled Dan realm. The fourth layer would then be the same as the Void Gu realm.
‘For the martial cultivation level in this world, the majority of the people are at the first layer of the Hundred Year realm. However, there are not only the Hundred Year realm beings in this world, there are even Thousand Year Kings!’
Bei Feng’s eyes gleamed with interest. The thing that caught his attention the most was the Heaven Connecting Towers. Each one of them actually held a nearly boundless space inside it!
The origins of these towers were definitely extraordinary. No matter if they were a kind of transference arrays or if there was really such vast space created inside them, they were still too far-fetched of a matter for him now. The most urgent matter was still to recover his cultivation as soon as possible.
After gaining all the knowledge about his current world, Bei Feng had complete confidence that he could completely recover his previous cultivation within a year’s time!
