Lord Xue Ying's

Chapter 240 – Eternal Body

Avatar Qi Xue Ying kept an eye on the Demon Faction Headquarters, paying special attention to the huge body contained within the bronze coffin hanging in the secret room.

……

The boundless ocean was shallow and deep. Sometimes, the depth is between 10 to 15 meters, but at other times, the depth can reach more than a hundred meters.

Xue Ying dived straight to the ocean floor until he was blocked by an invisible barrier that forced him to stop. As he flew around the barrier, he inspected the area within 250 kilometers of his position.

Three years and eleven months in investigation.

Hu—

Xue Ying flew inside the Mirage as a beam of light. Looking up from the depths of the sea, he saw a huge island that spanned hundreds of kilometers in length. There is even a county-sized city on the island. Overall, the oceans cover a larger area than dry land. It also has many islands, both small and large, scattered around with many human inhabitants.

Of the six great Transcendent Organizations, the Sea God Palace was responsible for the entire area covered by the ocean.

Within this county-sized city was a bustling river. Sitting under a crooked tree on a chair was a lonely-looking elder. In one hand he held the wood, while in the other, a chisel knife. He carved a log while a child waited by his side.

When a cold wind blew past him, the elder looked at the wood with deep emotion in his eyes. Wood shavings fluttered in the air before transforming a woman with a valiant aura.

"Sister Ping, if you are still alive .. we can spend the morning eating time from the stalls on the streets, walking through the busy streets and drinking wine on the rooftops. You told me earlier that this is how you want to spend the day. But, if you look at me now .. Maybe you won't even recognize me, "the elder whispered to himself. His voice was so silent that no one could hear him, not even the young servant next to him.

The ships kept coming and going in the bustling river nearby, most of them belonging to the rich and nobles.

Two unscrupulous men enjoyed the gentle breeze as they spoke loudly on a flower ship that had many beautiful girls like clouds.

"Sister Zhu, look. The old man was there, ” said one of the men while laughing and pointing his finger into the distance. He has a tall and thin body. "In a winter so cold and deep, and with a damp cold wind blowing by the river bank, was he really interested in carving? He even let the weak boy stand there. How arrogant. ”

“Indeed, he looks more arrogant than us. In fact, don't you think that even though his hair is white, this old man still looks handsome? He might even hook some of these sisters on our flower boat, ” replied one of the young men with a plump body.

“I can't stand people who are more handsome than I am. Especially when that person is an old man! Watch me harass her! ”High skinny young man looks around before grabbing a long bamboo paddle from the deck of the ship. He used it to direct towards the lonely-looking elder.

Hua.

The ice-cold midwinter river stirred and its crystal-clear water crashed into the old man. The tall and thin young man seemed to have a decent level of cultivation as the amount of water he stirred from the river was quite large in volume and his aim was quite high.

Some of the water fell right over the old man and his young servant. However, as if they were illusions, water passed through them and spilled on the ground. Even the chair and the box did not have a drop of water.

"Aah!" The tall skinny youth with bamboo oars was left stunned in this scene. He could not help but rub his eyes, unable to believe what he had just seen. Does water only pass through the human body? Without touching?

The fat youth who had been watching from the sidelines also stared with wide eyes.

The elder raised his head to look towards the two young nobles on the nearby flower ship.

Only with a quick glance.

"Yes!"

Waves shook the flower boat, forcing the tall and skinny young man to stagger from the deck and into the river. Guys . Water splashed everywhere. The fat youth also fell, splitting his mouth.

The fat young man looked at the lonely old man, feeling very surprised. Just before when the river water seemed to pass through the elder's body as if it was just an illusion, he realized that this old man must be a great person. Brother Zou used the water from the river to try to spray this old man and ended up falling into the river. I used my mouth to push it, and my mouth split open. Moreover, everything happened so naturally that it almost seemed like an accident. Thankfully, I just split my mouth.

At this time …

Hundreds of meters underground, Xue Ying passed through that location inside the Mirage.

The hand of the elder holding the knife stopped. After teasing the two boys back, the old man's brows furrowed. He turned towards Xue Ying. Since there was a distance of hundreds of kilometers between them, greater than the limit of Xue Ying's search, he couldn't detect the old man's gaze.

“This Xia Clan World is becoming more interesting. Surprisingly, there was someone here who could travel inside the Mirage. More and more powerful characters appeared! "The old man stood up and commanded," Son, let's go back. ”

"Yes, sir!" The boy tidied up the box, folded it together with the chair. He then placed it on his shoulder and left with the old man.

As the distance between them was shortened to only about 250 kilometers, Xue Ying scanned the area with Mirage. His quick scan revealed nothing, prompting him to proceed to another area.

……

Five years had passed since Xue Ying left Snowrock Castle to begin his quest.

On an island covering hundreds of kilometers, Xue Ying was sitting on the beach. Several fishing boats were floating in the nearby waters. The inhabitants of this island have been fishermen for generations. However it was far away at night, so the fishermen on board were currently sleeping.

Sitting on the beach, Xue Ying placed a few Origin Stone shards in front of him. His finger lightly touched one of them, causing him to engulf the primitive World Energy inside with madness. The Origin Stone turned into a powder in less than a second. The rate of absorption was so fast that the surrounding stones quickly reduced in number, prompting new ones to appear.

The Magic Dragon Art crazily absorbed the energy within the Origin Stones. Every part of his flesh, his muscles and bones were absorbing more and more energy. As the saying goes – 'quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes'. Although humans did not possess the innate gift of a demon or a powerful original Transcendent body, after absorbing an exorbitant amount of Origin Stones, even their bodies could break through and become stronger!

Whong!

Xue Ying felt every part of his body roar. There was a faint qualitative change in him.

It feels so comfortable!

His blood flowed with greater strength as his cells brimmed with terrifying vitality. It seemed like every cell in his body could instantly heal itself. Even if his heart was broken, his brain and other vital parts were destroyed, his vitality could still heal them. With this kind of vitality, perhaps he could even heal the damage at the cellular level!

Of course, in order to repair the damage at the cellular level, his vitality would be consumed at an astounding rate. If he depleted all of his vitality, it would mean death to him.

Immortal body! A slight smile appeared on Xue Ying's face. His body had finally reached the middle stage of Saint realm. Moreover, he had obtained an immortal body!

In the Dark Abyss, only rank four and above demons had immortal bodies. Meanwhile, all of their Demigods had immortal bodies!

Unless their opponent had an absolute advantage, anyone who possessed an immortal body would be hard to kill.

In this aspect, humans are too weak.

Normally, the human body could not practice improving such an art. Only those who had awakened their primordial bloodline could use Origin Stones to store energy and achieve qualitative changes.

I have three True Meanings and have successfully developed an immortal body. Only those top Demigods, perhaps, can hurt me. As for killing me .. Xue Ying is in a good mood. He had already raised his body to the middle level of the Saint realm, so that he could try to achieve a second awakening of his bloodline next. If it also worked, he would definitely reach Saint realm pinnacle.

The amount of Origin Stones required, however. was so great that even if all of the Transcendent Worlds surrounding the Xia Clan World were excavated, it was still not enough. That number is unrealistic.

It was already incredible that he had reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm.
