Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 544 Nirvana Golden Body

Several miles away from the square, on the rooftop of an inn, two figures stood in a strange spatial interlayer.

The space was slightly distorted. From the outside, it appeared to be empty, but the space inside was a completely different world.

"Has...has he discovered us?"

A beautiful young girl, dressed in a light blue dress, relaxed her tense body only after the boy's figure disappeared from the square.

A fine layer of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her breathing was somewhat unsteady.

The boy's gaze just now was terrifying, as if it could pierce through the space in front of him and stare directly at her.

The moment her eyes met those dark pupils, the hairs on her body stood on end, her limbs stiffened, as if she were about to be swallowed up by those dark eyes and plunged into endless darkness.

"Yes."

A slightly hoarse voice sounded beside the girl.

The speaker was dressed in a black robe, obscuring his face, but judging from his silhouette, he was quite slender.

Beneath the black robe, one could vaguely sense a profound and abyss-like aura.

"Didn't you say you were very powerful? Now even a Creation Realm cultivator can discover your hidden abilities. You promised me before that you would make me stronger than Brother Lin Dong in the future. You weren't lying to me, were you?"

The girl pursed her lips, her clear eyes glancing sideways at the figure in black robes, her gaze as if she were looking at a liar.

The figure in black robes fell silent for a moment, then said softly, somewhat dejectedly, "He's different."

The person under the black robe also felt helpless.

God knows how shocked she was the moment she saw the boy.

The moment her gaze fell upon him, the man seemed to sense it and looked back at her.

At first, she thought it was her imagination, but the moment her eyes met the boy's, the dark ancestral symbol within her body trembled slightly.

That feeling... it was like a throbbing, a feeling of fear!

This immediately stirred up a storm in her heart.

She had never seen the Ancestral Symbol react like this since she took control of it.

It should be known that the Ancestral Symbol is a divine object formed by heaven and earth. Even a powerful being in the Reincarnation Realm would never allow the Ancestral Symbol to exhibit any abnormalities.

"Devouring..."

'

The figure in black robes stared blankly in the direction of the square, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

She never expected to encounter the most mysterious Devouring Ancestral Symbol in this small Great Yan Dynasty.

Moreover, the Devouring Lord who controls the Ancestral Symbol in this generation seems to be equally mysterious.

Meanwhile, on a mountaintop behind the royal palace.

A flash of lightning appeared in the void, transforming into a figure that landed on the ground.

Xiao Bai looked around, found a flat boulder, and sat down cross-legged.

He casually took out two storage bags, which he had obtained from Wang Lei and the old man in hemp clothing.

He swept his soul power into it, examined it carefully, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"So poor!"

He muttered something to himself, his brows furrowing slightly.

The Nirvana Pills in the two storage bags combined amounted to just over a million.

Including the two million or so given by Ling Qingzhu, the total amount of Nirvana Pills is less than four million.

"I don't know if it's enough to break through to the Nirvana Realm..."

Xiao Bai's eyes flickered uncertainly as he hesitated, wondering whether he should advance to the Nirvana Realm now.

He had been stuck at the peak of the Creation Realm for two months. When Ling Qingzhu gave him the Nirvana Pill, he was quite happy, thinking he could directly cultivate to the Nirvana Realm.

But when he touched the barrier of Nirvana and began to temper his physical body with the energy of Nirvana, he realized that he had made a mistake.

Two million Nirvana Pills are simply not enough!

The key to breaking through to the Nirvana Realm lies in using the Nirvana Qi to temper the physical body and condense the Nirvana Golden Body.

The more Nirvana Pills one uses, the more Nirvana Qi one possesses, the greater one's physical potential, and the more solid one's foundation becomes.

For an ordinary person to break through to the Nirvana Realm, using tens or hundreds of thousands of Nirvana Pills is already quite good.

Those with exceptional talent may need three to five hundred thousand.

However, Xiao Bai's physical body was already far beyond that of ordinary people, so the amount of Nirvana energy he needed was naturally many times greater.

"Let's give it a try!"

Xiao Bai's eyes hardened, and he immediately made a decision.

He raised his hand and waved it, and a small mountain of crimson pills suddenly appeared in front of him.

A wave of scorching heat hit us. The next moment, the surrounding space distorted, and the lush green flowers, grasses, and trees on the mountaintop withered and turned to black ash in just a few breaths.

"boom--"

It seemed this small place couldn't withstand such a dense aura of rebirth. A fiery red pillar of light, hundreds of feet thick, shot into the sky!

"What is that?"

At this moment, everyone in the entire royal city looked towards the royal palace, their gazes firmly drawn to the pillar of light.

The beam of light was crimson red, containing immense energy; even from miles away, people could feel its intense heat and powerful aura.

"This is... the aura of Nirvana?!"

On the plaza, everyone, from the contestants to the clan leaders and sect masters, was stunned by this scene.

This was the first time they had ever witnessed such a magnificent and boundless aura of nirvana.

The beam of light was hundreds of feet in diameter, and the concentration of Nirvana energy it contained was probably higher than anywhere else they had ever seen.

Soon, greedy eyes appeared in theirs.

Such a pure and potent aura of rebirth is something that even all the forces of the Great Yan Dynasty combined could probably not produce. How could this not tempt them?

But when several clan leaders and sect masters flew towards the location of the pillar of light, their steps suddenly faltered.

"It's him!"

Their gazes turned to the mountaintop, where a figure sat cross-legged beneath a beam of light.

When they saw the man's face clearly, they were immediately startled, and the greedy light in their eyes quickly disappeared.

If these Nirvana Pills belonged to someone else, they might dare to have some ulterior motives.

But now it's Mr. Xiao, how could he dare to make any such plans?

Wang Lei's blood on the square was still wet!

Lin Fan, the patriarch of the Lin clan, looked at the mountain of Nirvana Pills on the mountaintop with awe.

With each breath, the unprecedentedly rich aura of nirvana in the air caused their flesh and blood to tremble with pleasure.

"That's probably at least a million Nirvana Pills, right? What's this guy planning to do?"

Thinking of Xiao Bai's peak Creation Realm, he had a vague idea in his mind, but he couldn't quite believe it.

Before advancing to the Nirvana Realm, the more Nirvana Pills one uses, the more Nirvana Qi one possesses, and the greater one's physical potential.

But where do ordinary people get so many Nirvana Pills?

Moreover, the physical body has limited capacity to withstand it, and too much Nirvana energy will only cause it to burn.

"boom"

Just then, a pitch-black vortex hundreds of feet in size appeared above his head, frantically devouring the Nirvana Pill.

The surging Nirvana energy between heaven and earth, like birds returning to their nests, roared towards the vortex.

Xiao Bai's body seemed to be ignited instantly, with crimson flames erupting from his body, causing the void to distort.

"Breaking through the barrier..."

""

Mo Jingtian gazed towards the back mountain, his heart filled with immense shock.

He never dared to dream of breaking through to the next realm by absorbing so many Nirvana Pills at once.

Back when he was at the peak of his cultivation, he could only use a few hundred Nirvana Pills to temper his body at a time, and he had to be very careful, for fear that his physical body would not be able to withstand it and he would be burned to ashes.

Unlike this guy, who directly ignited a million Nirvana Pills, as if he was afraid the fire was too weak to burn him to death!

However, they soon realized they had been too hasty in their shock.

As time ticked by, the small Nirvana Pill Mountain soon disappeared.

Another new Nirvana Hill has appeared!

"Another million?!"

This left countless people speechless.

They thought a million Nirvana Pills were the limit, but little did they know, that was just an appetizer.

"This...this Mr. Xiao, what a generous gesture!"

"How many Nirvana Pills did you use to advance to the Nirvana Realm?"

Huangpu Hao, the patriarch of the Huangpu family, murmured, his voice tinged with bitterness.

"Around two hundred thousand..." Mo Jingtian replied unconsciously, somewhat lost in thought.

He used 250,000 Nirvana Pills to break through, which was one of the proudest things in his life.

But looking at it now, it almost made him withdrawn.

Huangpuhao then looked at Lin Fan.

Seeing this, Lin Fan's expression turned slightly subtle: "Ahem... let's focus on the competition among the younger generation!"

After saying that, he turned to leave.

The others exchanged glances, noticing the hesitation in each other's eyes. They immediately understood and agreed, "Well, Chief Lin is right. Right now, it's more important to select five seeds as soon as possible."

They verbally changed the subject, but inwardly they were grumbling about why Huangpuhao had to ask such a sensitive question.

They've all become like useless trash!

"Gentlemen, I was just about to tell you something."

Mo Jingtian suddenly spoke, his tone serious, "This time you probably only have three spots left."

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze sharpened, and they all frowned.

After exchanging glances, Qin Shan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, we have no objection to the royal family reserving one spot each time. But aren't two spots a bit too many?"

Upon hearing this, people from the three clans and three sects echoed his sentiments.

The slots for the Hundred Dynasties War are already precious, with the Great Yan Dynasty having only five slots each time.

In the past, the royal family would occupy one, and the remaining four would be contested by various groups, with strength determining the winner.

Now that the royal family wants to occupy two, they naturally don't want to.

Mo Jingtian, however, remained calm and waited until they finished speaking before slowly saying, "This spot isn't for the royal family. If you're not interested, go find that person in the back mountain..."

'

"That one on the back hill?!"

Their gazes all turned to the back of the palace, where they immediately saw the towering pillar of light.

Could it be that Mr. Xiao... is also going to participate in the Hundred Dynasties War?!

Upon realizing this possibility, everyone's expression changed.

"The Lin family has no objection!"

Lin Fan was the first to express his opinion, his tone crisp and decisive.

What a joke! Who would dare object to someone participating in the Hundred Dynasties War?

Who would dare to provoke a ruthless person who could kill a Nirvana Realm cultivator with a single slap?

"My Huangpu family has no objection!"

"My Qin family has no objections!"

"Our Tianluo Sect agrees!"

"The Great Compassion Sect seconded this!"

"The Barbarian King Sect too!"

The crowd's earlier discontent vanished, and they patted their chests, looking hearty and generous.

Just kidding, their legs are still trembling from that slap.

One less spot is better than losing your life.

Mo Jingtian nodded in satisfaction: "In that case, the spots are decided. One for Mr. Xiao, one for Mo Ling, and the remaining three are up to you to compete for."

"Yes."

Everyone responded in unison, but in their hearts they were all thinking that this Great Yan Dynasty was about to produce an extraordinary figure in the Hundred Dynasties War.

Time flies, and seven days have passed.

The seedings for the seeding battle have already been decided in these seven days.

And the mountain behind the royal palace.

The firelight on the mountaintop has changed, from its initial crimson to its current golden-red.

At this moment, golden light continuously shot out from the pores of Xiao Bai's body, making his body look as if it were made of pure gold, giving people a sense of indestructible solidity.

Nirvana Golden Body!

This is the true mark of a Nirvana Realm expert, who uses the energy of Nirvana to temper every part of their physical body, from the inside out, to the extreme.

Once the Golden Body is formed, the strength of the physical body increases dramatically, making it difficult for even ordinary peak Creation Realm cultivators to harm it in the slightest.

"Almost there..."

'

Xiao Bai could sense that his physical body could continue to strengthen, and he was only one step away from completing the final transformation and condensing the most perfect Nirvana Golden Body.

Unfortunately, he no longer had any Nirvana Pills.

Nearly four million Nirvana Pills have been completely used up.

At this moment, he was completely absorbing the sparse Nirvana Qi in the world, but for a low-level dynasty like the Great Yan Dynasty, the Nirvana Qi in the world was far too thin to support him in completing the final step.

Being stuck at this step was incredibly frustrating for him.

Xiao Bai frowned secretly, pondering for a long time, but still couldn't find a solution.

Just as he was about to give up and wait for another opportunity to complete it, suddenly, an exceptionally powerful aura of Nirvana surged out from the void and was poured into the devouring vortex above his head!

This Nirvana energy is incomparably pure and inexhaustible.

Xiao Bai was slightly taken aback, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.

One night passed.

As the sun rose that day, its rays bathed the sky above the capital.

Suddenly, a powerful pressure enveloped the entire capital, causing countless people to feel their hearts tremble.

The next moment, a deep, resonant murmur, accompanied by a high-pitched phoenix cry, suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth!

"roar"

—

Everyone looked up abruptly, the blinding light hitting their eyes, and they instinctively squinted.

"I'm blind..."

'

"How can there be two suns in the sky?!"

"Wait, what's that next to the sun?!"

"A dragon... and a bird."

"You're so ignorant! That's a phoenix!"

After their eyes adjusted to the light, some people suddenly discovered a huge golden ball of light in the sky.

The legendary phantoms of dragons and phoenixes are circling and soaring around it.

The scene was too shocking. The golden dragon was thousands of feet long and the golden phoenix had wings that covered the sky. The two flew around the golden light ball, exuding a powerful pressure.

Everyone in the capital was stunned. Whether they were ordinary people or cultivators, they were all speechless with shock at this astonishing phenomenon.

"Little Marten... Could it be that you, senior, also possess the bloodlines of the Dragon and Phoenix clans?"

Lin Dong stood in the palace square, looking at the astonishing phenomenon above his head, his jaw almost dropping to the ground.

The little sable on his shoulder was also dumbfounded. As a member of the Heavenly Demon Sable clan, he was very familiar with divine beasts like dragons and phoenixes.

But I have never seen anyone advance to the Nirvana Realm with such extraordinary phenomena as dragons and phoenixes.

"Could it be that you are a demon?"

The little ferret muttered to itself, a look of confusion flashing in its eyes.

Soon, the illusory images of dragons and phoenixes gradually dissipated, turning into specks of golden light that merged into the central ball of light.

The light gradually dimmed, finally revealing the figures within.

Xiao Bai, dressed in a brand-new black robe, floated in the air, standing there quietly without any materialized Yuan energy supporting him.

He smiled and slightly raised his arm, causing the surrounding space to distort, as if he could tear the void apart with a flick of his wrist.

"Finally, I can use spatial abilities to travel again!"

Xiao Bai felt extremely happy.

God knows what it feels like for someone who is used to traveling by space to suddenly find themselves only able to travel on foot.

This world, in particular, is so vast and boundless, with journeys often stretching thousands of miles, that it's simply unbearable.

After familiarizing himself with the space of this plane, he took a step—

"Whoosh!"

The figure vanished instantly, and when it reappeared, it was already above the small courtyard where it had lived before.

The speed was so fast that the pupils of the several Nirvana Realm experts hidden in the shadows shrank.

"This... this is something that someone in the Nirvana Realm can master?" Mo Jingtian was shocked.

Ordinary Nirvana Realm cultivators can only barely sense the surface of space and find it difficult to use, let alone do so with such ease.

Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, Xiao Bai looked up at a spot in the void within the city and chuckled, "Darkness, come over for a chat, how about it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless eyes in the city followed Xiao Bai's gaze, but there was nothing there, just an empty space, leaving them completely bewildered.

But soon, they noticed that the void was rippling, and two figures came into view.

He was dressed in a black robe, with a young girl beside him.

When Lin Dong saw the girl in light blue clothes next to the black robe, his eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Green sandalwood!!!"

He never expected to see his sister here!
