208: Ninth Level of Physical Strength

Rumble!

In a boiling cauldron, various precious liquids floated, and the aroma of medicine overflowed.

Lin Yang removed his clothes, entered the cauldron, sat cross-legged within it, refining his Physical Body.

This was an astonishing scene.

He sat cross-legged in the cauldron, silently reciting the Indestructible Scripture, as numerous primordial runes appeared in his mind, causing his body to gradually glow and shine, becoming as clear and translucent as jade.

Finally, he took the lid and placed it on his head, sealing himself within, to further refine his Physical Body, baptize his bones and Meridians, and achieve a Physical Body Breakthrough.

At this moment, the Indestructible Scripture quietly circulated, and Lin Yang fully charged towards a higher Physical Body Realm!

...Ten days later.

Boom!

In the mountain range, Lin Yang stood in the air, his Physical Body glowing with a crystalline radiance, as brilliant as the morning clouds.

"Body Tempering Ninth Heaven, accomplished!"

Lin Yang muttered to himself, neither happy nor sad.

The Indestructible Scripture was indeed formidable; with the catalysis of numerous ancient medicines, he actually completed it in ten days, reaching a Physical Body Realm that ordinary people would take hundreds of years to enter.

At this moment, he could stand in the Void Realm without any external aid, relying solely on the power of his Physical Body.

With every gesture, a powerful momentum gathered.

At this time, his bones were as clear as jade, his flesh and blood as brilliant as the clouds, exuding an ethereal, immortal aura, as if an exiled immortal had descended to the world.

However, when he slightly moved his arm, an immense surge of Qi immediately erupted, rolling like waves, shaking the surrounding mountains and causing their peaks to crack.

"Second Brother, have you found any trace of the life and death profound tree?"

During Lin Yang's retreat, Ji Kunchang was responsible for inquiring about the undying medicine, the life and death profound tree.

To achieve their goal as quickly as possible, the two cooperated tacitly, with a very clear division of labor.

One focused on increasing his strength, while the other gathered information about the undying medicine.

Thus.

After Lin Yang emerged from his retreat, he could immediately go to contend for it!

"I found it, Big Brother. During your retreat these past few days, news came from deep within the Forbidden Zone: an ancient medicine heavenly mountain has appeared, and the life and death profound tree is most likely on that heavenly mountain!"

Ji Kunchang said excitedly, presenting the results of his inquiries over the past few days.

It was an extremely simple map of the Forbidden Zone route, which Ji Kunchang had drawn based on information gathered from various sources.

It only showed a general path forward; everything else was unknown.

Although the map was simple, it was more than enough to guide their direction.

"Good, you wait for me here. I will go and retrieve the life and death profound tree!"

Lin Yang took the map, quickly identified the specific direction, and then galloped towards the distant land... White mist steamed, and myriad rays of light enveloped the entire mountain range, creating a hazy beauty.

This place was simply a pure land!

If such a peaceful scene appeared in the outside world, it would naturally not be surprising.

But this was the Forbidden Zone, a perilous place where countless Prodigy's bones were buried, where life and death dangers could arise at any moment.

In such a place, for a hazy and artistic majestic mountain peak to appear was truly incredible.

Lin Yang followed the route map provided by Ji Kunchang, indicating where the life and death profound tree might grow, and braved through thorns and thistles to reach this place.

The ancient medicine heavenly mountain, where Ji Kunchang suspected the life and death profound tree appeared, was within this mist-shrouded mountain range, but Lin Yang could not distinguish which mountain it was for a while.

This mountain range was vast, spanning tens of thousands of miles.

And because the peaks were somewhat similar and covered by thick fog, many who ventured in would get lost here.

Lin Yang had been here for several days, encountering several fatal attacks, but he managed to resolve them safely each time.

It was truly dangerous here, not only due to the inherent dangers of the Forbidden Zone but also from the powerful cultivators from the outside world who had entered the Forbidden Zone.

"Whoosh!"

Just as Lin Yang was feeling somewhat lost, a tree shadow suddenly appeared ahead, moving at an extremely fast speed close to the ground.

It looked as if it was running.

"A tree that can run?"

Lin Yang was dumbfounded.

He rubbed his eyes hard and looked again, confirming that he had not seen wrong.

It really was a tree running wildly, its roots at the bottom scrambling like centipede legs.

On the tree's canopy, a massive amount of essence Qi cascaded down, turning into black and white colors that dyed the entire trunk, making it extremely mystical.

"life and death profound tree!"

Lin Yang suddenly reacted, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on his face.

It was truly a case of finding something without searching for it, something that was right under his nose.

Wasn't this strange tree in front of him, which seemed to have gained sentience, precisely the goal of his and Ji Kunchang's trip, one of the Nine Great Ancient undying medicines, the life and death profound tree?

The life and death profound tree's speed was incredibly fast, flashing past Lin Yang's eyes in a blink.

And closely following it were two figures in pursuit, chasing the life and death profound tree.

"Stop!"

Just as Lin Yang was about to step forward to capture the life and death profound tree, the two immediately stood out to block him, their eyes as sharp as blades, their pupils coldly staring at Lin Yang.

"Hmm?"

Distracted by the two, Lin Yang missed the opportunity to seize the life and death profound tree immediately, watching helplessly as it slipped away from under his nose, rushing towards a distant tall mountain.

"You, come here!"

Just then, someone spoke coldly from afar.

A black-clothed youth with extraordinary eyebrows slowly walked over, an intimidating pressure emanating from his body.

"A master of Body Tempering Ninth Heaven!"

Lin Yang's eyes narrowed slightly.

Clearly, the two who were chasing the tree earlier were merely scouts; this black-clothed youth who came later was the main person.

The black-clothed youth had long purple-gold hair, very dazzling, and even his pupils were purple-gold, intimidating like torches, full of oppressive presence.

"Is there something you need?"

Lin Yang asked calmly.

"I'm short on manpower here. You, come over and help me drive that tree."

The black-clothed youth's tone was unquestionable, his voice cold and emotionless, as if giving orders.

Lin Yang sneered; he didn't like to provoke trouble, but he was absolutely not afraid of it either.

Moreover, anyone who could Cultivate the Body Tempering Ninth Heaven must have used a Body Refining method that was not inferior.

They were all top-tier Body Refining Divine Abilities capable of being passed down through the ages.

He was just looking for an opponent to test the differences between the Body Tempering Ninth Heaven Cultivated by the Indestructible Scripture and other top-tier Body Refining Divine Abilities.

"What are you, to order me to help you capture an undying medicine? If I capture it, will it be mine?" Lin Yang said directly.

However, before his words finished, he showed a hint of surprise, because he saw another young man and woman approaching.

The young man was somewhat familiar to Lin Yang; it was the Golden Winged Holy King, Zhou Aofeng, with whom he had clashed in the Lower Realm before.

Rumor had it that Zhou Aofeng possessed half of the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bloodline, and his Physical Body strength was extremely remarkable.

In the Eternal Life Forbidden Zone, where only Physical Body strength could be compared, Zhou Aofeng undoubtedly had a unique and enormous advantage.

And the other woman, walking side by side with Zhou Aofeng, her jade body glowing, clearly also had an extraordinary physique.

"You are..."

When Zhou Aofeng first saw Lin Yang, he was also suddenly stunned.

But immediately after, a playful arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Brother He Chong, aren't you looking for a servant? This person here is very strong, no less than the Saints of many great sects, and he perfectly meets your requirements." Zhou Aofeng said to the black-clothed youth.

"Is that so? I just happen to need a powerful servant to serve me!"

The black-clothed youth, upon hearing this, immediately showed an interested expression, his gaze like a torch, fixed on Lin Yang.

He came from an immortal clan, named He Chong, and his strength was terrifying, enough to contend with the Divine Sons and Divine Maidens of the Divine Palace.

Beside him, the woman also smiled, like a wild chrysanthemum blooming in the spring breeze, exceptionally beautiful and enchanting.

She possessed a unique seductive charm; her eyes, as they shifted, sized up Lin Yang, and she said with a smile, "Be careful, this brother has abundant Qi and Blood; he is most likely a master."

"The stronger, the better. Only a master is qualified to be my battle servant. I don't even bother with ordinary Genius."

He Chong laughed heartily. Although he said this, he had already become vigilant. He was deliberately provoking Lin Yang now, wanting to test the latter's courage and composure.

"Brother He Chong, let me do it. I'll capture him and present him to you as a gift."

Zhou Aofeng spoke, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, deliberately humiliating Lin Yang.

Because, previously in the Lower Realm, Lin Yang had attacked the four of them, the flawless-level Prodigy.

And in the end, he successfully stepped on the four of them to rise, establishing his invincible prestige.

This caused them to lose all reputation and dignity.

After returning to the Upper Realm.

Zhou Aofeng had always held a grudge about this, thinking that one day he would definitely get his revenge.

"Are you done talking? If you are, then come at me all at once!"

Lin Yang spoke indifferently, taking large strides, actively pressing forward.
