I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world.

Chapter 75 Transformation into Light
I habitually close my eyes and focus my mind on my body.

Even during this period of decadent relaxation, Jemin did not give up nurturing the magic weapon, and his efforts were not in vain.

He could feel that the connection between the Heart Mirror and his mind was becoming deeper and deeper, as if it had become a sixth limb of his body.

This feeling grew stronger and stronger until just now, when Jemin felt that perhaps it was time to make his first attempt.

So Jemin couldn't wait to experience the core function of the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror: Transformation into Light and Escape.

He wanted to test what kind of effect the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror could achieve in the late stage of Qi Refining, and what the limits of his own endurance were.

Considering the extremely fast speed of the Five Aggregates Transformation Rainbow Mirror, a simple laboratory training ground is no longer sufficient.

Jemin left the academy again and flew for several days before choosing a nearby mountain range with open terrain as the test site.

This place is far from towns and rarely visited by people, so even if you make a big commotion, it won't attract attention.

In a valley, Jemin took a deep breath to calm himself.

He focused his divine sense entirely on the Heart Mirror within his dantian.

"Transform into light!" he silently commanded in his mind.

In an instant, the Heart Mirror within his dantian suddenly erupted with a dazzling light.

The light did not spread outwards, but instantly converged, transforming from solid to ethereal, becoming an invisible force that surged from his dantian and instantly enveloped his entire body.

It was a strange feeling that was hard to describe.

His body seemed to lose its physical reality at that moment, becoming incredibly light, like pure light itself.

A layer of "light garment" emitting a faint iridescent color covered his skin, blending seamlessly with his body.

He could sense that what constituted this luminous garment was the five intertwined concepts of light within the Heart Mirror!

I didn't feel any pain or discomfort; instead, I experienced a wonderful sense of liberation.

He seemed to have broken free from the constraints of his physical body, ready to rush in any direction at any time.

"Travel by the light!"

With another thought, he chose a protruding rock in the distance of the valley as his target.

There was no roar, no loud noise, not even the faintest sound of air tearing.

Jemin felt his body suddenly burst forth with golden-red light, and the surrounding scenery shattered at that moment, as if it had been cleaved into countless pieces by a giant axe.

The sense of time is completely distorted, and space seems to be folded and compressed.

Everything before his eyes turned into blurry bands of light and blocks of color, and he could only barely capture some fragmented images—the rapidly receding shadows of trees, the fleeting outlines of mountain peaks, the brief glimpses of ground vegetation... All of this was superimposed and jumped in an illogical way, so fast that his eyes and brain could not process it at all!

He felt as if he was not "flying" but "teleporting".

He was not controlling the light, but briefly becoming the light!
Unable to sense air resistance or distance from the ground, Jemin only knew that he was "rushing forward" at an unimaginable speed!
Jemin tried to control the direction and adjust the trajectory, but his body wouldn't obey him at all!
He is now like a driven arrow; once released, it can only move in the predetermined direction at extreme speed!

How long did the light transformation last?
Perhaps it's one ten-thousandth of a second.

Perhaps even shorter...

The distorted sense of time created by the extreme high speed made it impossible for Jieming to judge.

Without any deceleration or warning, one second he was experiencing that extreme speed, and the next, a tremendous impact struck! The escape light vanished instantly, his body suddenly reappeared on a physical level, and then…

He felt like he had crashed into something hard!

Boom!

The immense force backfired, and his body emitted a painful groan.

He tried to stand up, but his legs felt weak and his vision went black.

It took him a while to come to his senses, and then Jemin realized that he had crashed hard into a huge rock!

Half of his body, from the waist down, was embedded in hard rock.

He managed to pull his arm out, leaned against the rock wall, and gasped for breath.

Within the dantian, the true essence was like a riverbed that had been drained, utterly depleted.

This mere moment of escape consumed all of his late-stage Qi Refining True Essence!

His soul was also subjected to torture; he felt as if his soul was trembling, his brain was exhausted and throbbing, and he was on the verge of collapse!

He struggled to pull his body out of the rock, the pain causing him to growl involuntarily.

Fortunately, the magic weapon itself was endowed with an extremely complete safety system during its forging, so the user would not carry the inertia of flight after the transformation into light and flight was completed.

The reason why Jemin was embedded in the rock was simply because he couldn't control his power well the first time he used it, and when he finally released the light, some of the residual energy burst out, causing backlash.

With more practice, this problem won't occur again.

Compared to the damage caused by the backlash of power, what is more terrifying is the brief feeling of emptiness after the escape ends.

Jemin felt as if his life force had been drained in that instant; his limbs were unresponsive, and for at least a few breaths, he was completely unable to make any effective dodge or counterattack.

If this test were conducted in front of the enemy, he would be like a piece of meat on a chopping board, completely at their mercy!
He climbed out of the rock with all his might and collapsed to the ground, leaning against the rock where he had knocked a human-shaped dent.

He is now completely weak and has difficulty even standing up.

A feeling of emptiness within, a weakened spirit, physical pain, and an indescribable stiffness...

It wasn't until he had been on the ground for a long time that he began to come to his senses. Trembling, he reached into his clothes and pulled out a well-protected medicine bottle. He opened it and poured the liquid inside into his mouth.

As he experienced the refreshing sensation of the potion rapidly restoring his physical injuries and mental strength, Jemin finally had time to savor the feeling of turning into light.

too fast!
The speed at which he flew in light was so fast that he didn't even fully understand what was happening before it was all over!

It was so fast that he completely lost control!
But... it's just too powerful!

He achieved this level of speed even though he was only at the late stage of Qi Refining, using the initial form of his magic weapon!
He probed his consciousness into his dantian, where the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror had dimmed considerably, its light flowing extremely slowly. Clearly, it had also consumed a great deal of energy and needed time to recover.

He was panting heavily, looking up at the mountains that had disappeared from sight in the direction he had come from, and then looking down at his disheveled state.

The fact that his vision was so good that he couldn't see the mountains meant that he had flown at least a thousand miles away in that instant.

It was because his true essence was too little, and he could only maintain the state of light transformation for a very short moment.

As long as he can maintain the light transformation for a longer period of time, the distance he can fly will increase exponentially.
