Chapter 399: Transformation
Although the blue light coming from Shun Long's body wasn't too bright, in the midst of the dark night it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The golden-robed young man and the 2 middle rank 3 Nascent Soul stage experts who were alongside him, were just about to start fighting with the black-robed young woman's group, when they suddenly turned their attention towards Shun Long's direction all at the same time.
Shun Long's body now resembled a shining blue-colored star whose light was illuminating everything around him!
The light coming from his body was also expanding at a rapid rate, instantly submerging everything around it.
Seeing that the blue-colored light coming from Shun Long's body was now expanding towards their direction and was about to touch them, actually gave the rank 3 Nascent Soul stage experts a feeling of immense danger!
Even the golden-robed young man and the black-robed young woman, as well as the black-robed old man who had just killed Qiu Lei, all 3 of which were peak rank 3 Nascent Souls stage experts, they could all feel a sense of danger coming from Shun Long, one that was not inferior to another peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage expert at all!
The black-robed woman led her group, as she instantly turned tail and fled away without any hesitation, heading towards the north of the city.
Chances were that even if Shun Long wasn't a friend of the golden-robed young man, he would still be her own enemy and would be looking for the Holy sect's token as well.
Thus, as long as Shun Long wasn't a direct threat to her, leaving the area and taking care of the golden-robed young man first was more important!
The golden-robed young man had a deep look in his eyes as he stared towards Shun Long's direction for a few moments, before he turned his attention back towards the fleeing black-robed woman's group!
After a moment of serious thinking, he turned his eyes to look at the 2 middle rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators by his sides, before they all nodded their heads simultaneously, as they chased after the black-robed woman.
At the same time, that the 2 groups left the scene, Shun Long who was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, had completely lost all sense of his surroundings.
His mind that had entered a state of sudden enlightenment, didn't allow any conscious thinking!
Although he could vaguely feel that his surroundings were changing in some way, he wasn't certain of what was going on, and neither could he actively think about it either.
The only thing in Shun Long's mind right now, was his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage that had unconsciously begun!
As the invisible figure of an hourglass appeared around him, 81 bright balls of qi had also appeared above his head at the same time, while the bright blue light that was coming from his body was giving off a sense of lethal danger, that didn't allow even peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage experts to touch it.
Shun Long could feel his spirit sense inside his spiritual space that was churning madly, like a wild beast that was finally unshackling itself after a very long time!
Circulating the 'Monarch's Hourglass', Shun Long started to fuse the 81 white balls of qi with each other, while at the same time, he could feel his spirit sense that was becoming stronger with every passing moment!
At the same time, right above his head and next to the invisible 'Monarch's Hourglass', Shun Long was now unaware that a gigantic black-colored vortex had also appeared, sucking in the qi in the air from the entire eastern part of this small city.
Shun Long's body that needed vast amounts of qi to supplement the 'Monarch's Hourglass' for his breakthrough, for the very first time seemed to be lacking the qi that it needed.
Since Shun Long couldn't absorb any qi from the 'Heaven Swallowing vine' that was still inside the 'Stone of Time', the 'Monarch's Hourglass' had naturally formed a gigantic vortex that stole the qi from the air around the entire eastern part of the city, supplementing it all inside Shun Long's body.
Using the large amounts of qi that were entering his body, Shun Long started to fuse the 81 balls of qi with each other, while at the same time, his thoughts continued to ruminate over the meaning of entering the Nascent Soul stage
''A Nascent Soul stage cultivator cannot be compared to someone who is still in the Spirit realm in terms of strength.
Now I understand!
Nascent Soul.. it doesn't just mean that a cultivator is using their soul...
It isn't just the stage of rebirth... the soul itself becomes many times stronger alongside the increase in qi and spirit sense... no, soul sense!''
At this point, Shun Long who was still comprehending the meaning of being a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, was completely unaware that the vortex above his head had now covered half of the city!
Be it the alliance members who were fighting the criminals stationed at the city walls, or the golden-robed young man and his group as well as the black-robed young woman's, everyone could see the black vortex that was now hovering above their heads like an omen of death!
''Senior brother Qiong, is this really a Nascent Soul vortex? How can it be this terrifying...?''
One of the 2 middle rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators who was following the golden-robed young man couldn't help asking in a voice filled with disbelief, once he saw the gigantic vortex in the sky that was so similar, and yet at the same time so different from his own vortex when he was breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage!
After all, it was common knowledge, that once someone was breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, their body would absorb the qi around them to supplement itself with enough qi for the breakthrough, but the scene created wouldn't be nearly as terrifying as this!
Perhaps the vortex would have a radius of half a meter, or it could be as much as 3 meters wide!
Even 'senior brother Qiong' however didn't seem to have an answer to this, as he stared at Shun Long's direction with a serious look in his eyes.
At this point, even he wasn't certain if this was really a Nascent Soul vortex.
After all, even his own Nascent Soul vortex in the past, had only reached a radius of a little more than 11 meters, and 'senior brother Qiong' was certain that he himself was definitely considered a genius!
At the same time, the 81 balls of qi above Shun Long's head had already merged into 27, and yet, this wasn't the only transformation that was taking place this time.
Shun Long could feel his spirit sense was that churning even more wildly, when suddenly, his spiritual space started to rumble!
It was like a terrifying magic beast that was finally waking up after an endlessly long period of slumber!
The moment that the 27 balls of qi were merged into 9, Shun Long felt a terrifying, soul-splitting headache assaulting him, before a booming sound that was similar to the Heaven and earth splitting apart resounded from his spiritual space!
