Chapter 276: Chapter 275: Limits (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the martial stage, Lu Xuanji activated the [Ant Emperor Divine Form], instantly breaking the shackles of the body, unlocking the limits of the physical body, magical power, divine soul, and cultivation, forcibly increasing his cultivation twelvefold.
However, at the same time, his body fell into chaos, with chaotic Qi and blood, a rapidly beating heart, and his entire body becoming disorderly and chaotic.
He could only maintain it for three seconds before his body exploded once again.
Repairing his body, Lu Xuanji’s face turned pale, but sensing his body, he revealed a hint of joy.
Because the magical power limit had increased.
It was like a water jar that could only hold a limited amount of water.
When more water was added, it would just overflow, unable to be contained by the jar.
But now, the volume of the jar had expanded and could accommodate more water.
After using the Ant Emperor Divine Form, his magical power limit only increased by one-tenth of a cycle’s worth of magical power, but this was a good thing.
When the injuries healed and Qi and blood recovered, Lu Xuanji took out middle-grade spirit stones to begin absorbing them; but later found the speed too slow with middle-grade spirit stones, so he directly used upper-grade spirit stones to increase the absorption efficiency and enhance the magical power quantity.
Thus, the practice entered a monotonous stage, activating the Ant Emperor Divine Form, reaching extreme bursts; after the extreme bursts, he began healing injuries, recovering Qi and blood, then refining spirit stones, converting it into strands of magical power.
He only performed the Ant Emperor Divine Form once a day, not overusing it.
Frequent use would cause damage to the essence, leading to irreparable harm.
Time passed by, and in the blink of an eye, another twenty years had passed.
"Is this the limit?"
Lu Xuanji activated his physical body, which radiated Pure Yang Treasure Light; a punch unleashed tremendous power, but the body could withstand a fourth-grade spiritual treasure; the quantity of magical power further increased to 120 cycles, magical power quality was infinitely close to the Golden Core Third Transformation; the strength of his divine soul increased, able to lift 800 pounds.
In terms of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, he far surpassed the typical peak of the Purple Mansion.
Regarding the so-called Essence, Qi, and Spirit Perfection, it no longer held much reference value for him.
The physical body reached its limit, magical power reached its limit, even activating the [Ant Emperor Divine Form] could no longer increase it in the slightest.
Only the divine soul’s limit was still lacking,
Compared to the powerful physical body and immense magical power, the divine soul seemed relatively "weaker."
"Some problems lie in unknown areas, I need to consult Xi’Er!" Lu Xuanji pondered, his figure flickering as he left the Lu Family and headed to Purple Sun Mountain.
Upon reaching Purple Sun Mountain, Jin Xi curiously asked, "Huh! You’ve reached half-step Golden Core, but it’s only half-step Golden Core. That’s odd! With your aptitude, the so-called Golden Core bottleneck shouldn’t be a problem for you. Fifty years without seeing each other, you should have achieved Golden Core?"
"There was a slight problem!"
Lu Xuanji replied.
Jin Xi asked nervously, "What happened?"
"Before proving the Golden Core, when your Essence, Qi, and Spirit reached perfection, what was your magical power quantity, what was your magical power quality, what was the strength of your physical body, and what was the strength of your divine soul?" Lu Xuanji interrogated.
"This?"
Jin Xi pondered, recalling, then said, "Before reaching Golden Core Perfection, my magical power quantity was sixty cycles, magical power quality was Golden Core Second Transformation, physical body strength was comparable to third-grade spiritual artifacts, and the divine soul strength could lift 300 pounds. My foundation was rarely seen in Central State!"
"Is that so, then take a look at me!"
Lu Xuanji didn’t say anything, he just waved his hand to punch out.
Jin Xi countered back.
After just three moves, Jin Xi sensed the changes in her companion, her eyes filled with astonishment: "How could you be so strong?"
Lu Xuanji stopped and stood still, calmly saying, "I want to know, where is the limit?"
"The limit, huh?"
Jin Xi said, "Every cultivator has secrets, many secrets remain untold, like a cultivator’s trump card, past adventures, and their own magical power quantity, magical power quality, physical body strength, Lifebound Treasure, etc., these are kept secret. As for where a cultivator’s limits lie, I do not know either!"
"However, I have heard from the predecessors, that the Heavenly Dao begins at one, and ends at nine. Nine is considered minor perfection, and twelve is great perfection. Twelve is perfection, also the extreme, what is called the Immortal Body is just close to the extreme but cannot exceed it. Xuanji, you have a Pure Yang Dao Body, based on grade calculation, magical power is at most fifty cycles, even with constant honing, eighty cycles is the ultimate!"
"But you are actually at 120 cycles, breaking the limits too far, too far!"
"Really?"
Lu Xuanji laughed: "If you want to learn, I can teach you!"
"Really? Isn’t there a limit?"
Jin Xi asked curiously.
"No! Because, I created it myself!" Lu Xuanji opened his mouth, explaining the [Ant Emperor Divine Form].
At the beginning, Jin Xi listened with great interest, but by the end, she frowned, saying: "This is a suicidal cultivation technique!"
"If you don’t go crazy, how can you break the shackles!"
Lu Xuanji said.
Jin Xi said, "You’re right, it seems I’m lacking some courage. However, the Ant Emperor Divine Form can only reach its strongest in your hands, in mine it can only explode fivefold cultivation, causing grievous injuries afterwards, needing superior spirit medicines to heal."
"How far am I from the limit?"
Lu Xuanji asked.
Jin Xi was silent, thought for a moment, then said: "Your current foundation is very strong, as to how strong exactly, I cannot describe. But clearly, your divine soul is a bit weak... The divine soul has become your shortcoming. Not long after, the Yin Yang Secret Realm is about to open, there lies your opportunity?"
Lu Xuanji inquired: "What is the Yin Yang Secret Realm?"
Jin Xi explained: "It is a secret realm of the Joyful Union Demon Sect, where in those days, I obtained the [Yin Yang Illusionary Body], to be precise, only gained the upper volume of [Yin Yang Body], but the lower volume of [Illusionary Body] was not acquired. Flaws still exist in the cultivation technique!"
She said while pointing a finger, conveying the information regarding [Yin Yang Illusionary Body].
Digesting the information, reflecting on the information passed by Qinglian Dao Monarch, Lu Xuanji couldn’t help but sigh, women are too deceptive.
Back then, when Qinglian told him about [Yin Yang Illusionary Body], she only said half of it and left out critical parts, adding false points.
The Yin Yang Illusionary Body is divided into two scrolls, the upper scroll is the Yin Yang Body, illustrating how to evolve a second clone, the main body bearing emotion, the clone holding reason;
The lower scroll, the Illusionary Body, expounds the Dao of Illusory Life and Death, even in battle, if the clone dies, it can revive via the main body;
Or if the main body perishes, it can be resurrected through the clone.
However, only the Yin Yang Body exists now, without the Illusionary Body, if True Monarch Xi Yue or True Monarch Qinglian fall, it is a total fall.
