73: Ancient Sacred Body, Law of Power!

[Ding! Successfully intercepted the Son of Destiny Xiao Fan's golden Opportunity: a drop of Major Achievement Ancient Desolate Sacred Body Essence Blood, triggering a ten thousand times critical return of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body (Nine Shackles Broken), rewarding 10,000 Destiny Points.]

[Ancient Desolate Sacred Body: A special Physique from the Ancient Era. The Physical Body is unparalleled, and upon Major Achievement, it can challenge a True Immortal.]

Hearing the System notification, Lu Yuan's breathing couldn't help but quicken.

Moreover, it was the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body that had already broken the Nine Shackles!

"Is this what it feels like to cheat?"

Lu Yuan's lips curled slightly. Without the slightest hesitation, his figure flashed, and he returned directly to the Secret Chamber the Gu Family had prepared for him.

"System, extract the reward and perform Fusion!"

Boom!

As soon as his voice fell.

An indescribable terrifying power instantly appeared out of thin air within Lu Yuan's body.

This power was domineering, scorching, and ancient, carrying a sense of heaviness that felt capable of crushing the heavens.

Crack! Crack!

The bones throughout Lu Yuan's body began to emit crisp cracking sounds like popping beans.

At this moment, his blood actually began to turn gold.

The originally bright red fresh blood rapidly turned into brilliant golden color. Every drop of blood seemed to contain a Deity, radiating endless Vital Essence Qi.

At the same time.

Deep within his Physical Body, mysterious Divine Reservoirs seemed to be opening up one after another.

This feeling was like breaking through some kind of life shackles, evolving from a Mortal creature toward a higher-level Deity.

There was not the slightest pain, only endless comfort and power.

Because this was the perfect Physique returned by the System, there were no side effects or rejection reactions.

Half a day later.

Lu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

Two golden beams of light shot out from his eyes, directly piercing the walls of the Secret Chamber and soaring straight into the sky.

Rumble!

Above the entire Tianyuan City, the weather suddenly changed drastically.

Countless golden clouds gathered, and within those clouds, a vague yet majestic figure actually appeared.

That figure sat cross-legged above the Nine Heavens, surrounded by Illusory Images of Divine Beasts like True Dragons, Divine Phoenixes, and Qilins, appearing like a supreme Immortal King looking down upon the Mortal world.

It was precisely the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body Phenomenon: Immortal King Descends Upon the Nine Heavens!

At this moment.

All the Cultivators within Tianyuan City felt a sense of suppression originating from deep within their Bloodline, making them instinctively want to bow down and worship.

"What... what Phenomenon is that?"

"Immortal King... could it be that an Immortal has descended?"

Countless people looked up, their faces filled with shock.

Inside the Secret Chamber.

Lu Yuan took out the Major Achievement Ancient Desolate Sacred Body Essence Blood from the Origin Stone and immediately Refined it using the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art. Since it originated from the same source as his own Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, the Refinement process was remarkably smooth.

An hour later.

Lu Yuan stood tall, his entire body enveloped in golden light, his skin crystal clear like jade. He didn't look particularly muscular, but every inch of his flesh and blood contained terrifying power capable of overturning rivers and seas.

"Fifth-Tier Body Refining!"

"His Physical Body is comparable to a Void Refining Cultivator!"

Lu Yuan clenched his fist, feeling the golden Vital Essence Qi surging like the sea within his body.

Merely Refining one drop of Major Achievement Ancient Desolate Sacred Body Essence Blood, his Physical Body Realm directly leaped past Soul Transformation, reaching the Fifth-Tier level comparable to a Refining Void Stage Yao Beast!

Moreover.

He could feel that this was far from the limit.

Most of the power from that drop of Major Achievement Ancient Desolate Sacred Body Essence Blood was still deposited within his body, and as he continued to Cultivate in the future, it would continuously nourish his Physical Body, making him stronger.

"Since my Physical Body has entered Void Refining, then this Law..."

Lu Yuan's mind stirred.

A brand new Law fluctuation danced on his fingertips.

It was the purest, most primitive, yet most domineering Law.

The Law of Strength!

One force shatters ten thousand Laws!

The moment his Physical Body reached Void Refining, he naturally comprehended this Supreme Law that only those who primarily Cultivate the Physical Body can master, and he directly bypassed the Elementary stage, reaching the Fourth Transformation level!

"Heaven Devouring Demonic Art, Refine again!"

Lu Yuan was not satisfied.

He flipped his hand and took out the Blood God Child's Flesh and Blood Essence that he had previously sealed, swallowing it directly into his stomach.

With the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body acting as a bottomless pit, this amount of energy was not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

Another half hour passed.

When Lu Yuan walked out of the Secret Chamber again, the golden light on his body had completely retracted. He looked like he had returned to his original simplicity, indistinguishable from a Mortal.

But if a High-level Cultivator were to probe him with Divine Sense, they would discover in horror that Lu Yuan's body seemed to harbor a Primordial True Dragon, capable of overturning the world with the slightest movement.

"Husband!"

As soon as he emerged from seclusion, Gu Qingxue came forward to greet him.

She had already changed into clean clothes, and she carried a lingering Killing Intent, clearly having just finished dealing with the matters of the Three Great Families.

Looking at Lu Yuan before her, a trace of brilliance flashed in Gu Qingxue's beautiful eyes.

She keenly sensed that her Husband seemed to have grown stronger yet again, and had become even more unfathomable. The faint masculine Qi radiating from him made her feel weak all over just by getting close.

"Congratulations, Husband, on the Major Achievement of your divine Cultivation Technique!"

Gu Qingxue bowed gracefully, her eyes full of joy.

"Mhm."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly, glancing at the Storage Rings behind her: "Are things settled?"

"Reporting, Husband, the Remnants of the Three Great Families have all been executed, and all properties and resources have been inventoried."

Gu Qingxue said, handing over several Storage Rings: "These are the more valuable resources among them. Please take a look, Husband."

Lu Yuan glanced at them, then waved his hand: "These things are useless to me. Keep them for the Gu Family, or select some yourself to take back to the Sect."

"Thank you, Husband!"

Gu Qingxue felt a warmth in her heart. She knew her Husband was indirectly helping her Family... That night.

The 11 PM - 1 AM hour had passed.

[Ding! Daily Intelligence has been refreshed!]

[Green Intelligence: To the east of Tianyuan City, in a corner of the Hundred Forging Workshop, there is a Broken Sword covered in dust.

This sword looks like scrap iron, but it is actually forged from Ancient Geng Metal Essence. Although its spirituality is lost, it contains extremely high-quality Geng Metal Vital Qi, making it an excellent Auxiliary Material for Cultivating Metal-element Cultivation Techniques or refining top-grade Spirit Treasures.

[Purple Intelligence: The Son of Destiny Xiao Fan will head to the Tingyu Pavilion Teahouse in Tianyuan City today during the chen hour, searching for a jar of moldy, hairy tea cake. Relying on the guidance of the Venerable Yao, Xiao Fan will recognize that the mold is the Dao Rhyme Frost Deposited by Time, and a Comprehension Tea Leaf is hidden inside the tea cake.

Drinking this tea can cleanse the Divine Soul, allow one to enter a state of Epiphany, and greatly enhance Law comprehension. [Click to view coordinates]]

[White Intelligence: The Great Luo Sword Sect's Seven Star Sword Venerable and Xuanji Sword Venerable have secretly reached an agreement. Unwilling to suffer humiliation, they plan to widely spread rumors in the Great Yan Kingdom Cultivation World.

Claiming that the Host deliberately stood by and watched Righteous Path Disciples be killed without helping in the Fallen Demon Valley, all to monopolize the Blood River Ancestor's Legacy, intending to ruin Azure Cloud Sect's reputation and unite with Sects like the Purple Mansion Holy Land to pressure the Azure Cloud Sect.]

After reading these three pieces of intelligence, Lu Yuan's gaze gradually became playful.

"Spreading rumors? Uniting to apply pressure?"

Lu Yuan let out a sneer.

"It seems the lesson I gave them before wasn't profound enough."

"Great Luo Sword Sect... perhaps it's time for someone else to take the position of one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects."

However, this matter is not urgent.

Once I return to the Sect, I'll have plenty of time to play with them slowly.
