The Origin Aeth Artery was indeed too extraordinary. It had only just formed, but it had already devoured all the aeth power within Lin Xun’s body and used up all the aeth medicine and elixirs that he had collected over the years.

It still wasn’t satisfied.

Gritting his teeth, Lin Xun brought out a bright, glistening monster core and swallowed it in one bite.

It was the monster core of the green-spotted leopard. It contained a huge amount of essence that could be refined into a jar of top, earth-grade aeth medicines.

Its medicinal effect was much lower in its raw form.

But Lin Xun couldn’t care about that at such a time.

Rumble—

Tremendous, scorching power circulated around the inside of Lin Xun’s body like molten lava.

It was different from the previous times. Before Lin Xun could refine it, the Origin Aeth Artery transformed into a great abyss and produced a frightening devouring power that engulfed all the powers of the green spotted leopard’s monster core.

A thought suddenly struck Lin Xun. The Origin Aeth Artery seems to have the same goal as me—It urgently wants to be stabilized.

Let’s see how many monster cores you can devour.

Lin Xun took out another monster core and swallowed it.

Monster cores were extremely valuable and could fetch a sky-high price in the Ziyao Empire.

After Lin Xun had killed Qian Huai, he had fought for ten days without resting and slaughtered dozens of monster beasts at the Spirit Sea Stage along the way, obtaining dozens of monster cores.

He had planned to use them to improve his cultivation in the future, but he had to give up on the valuable monster cores for the Origin Aeth Artery.

One monster core.

Two monster cores.

Three monster cores.

Lin Xun constantly swallowed monster cores. He was like a vehicle for monster cores. Fortunately, he didn’t need to refine them for the Origin Aeth Artery to absorb them.

During the process, the Origin Aeth Artery glowed brightly like a blazing abyss. It spewed out spiraling sacred aura and produced mysterious sounds like Buddhist chanting.

The pure sacred aura was so intense that it seemed tangible. It streamed over the four acupuncture points of the heart, dyeing every inch of the heart area an iridescent color with its power.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The rhythm of the heartbeat sounded like a huge drum. It was calm, deep and strong. Moreover, every beat released a sacred aura that spread to the meridians, acupoints, muscles, bones, and skin.

For a moment, every inch of him seemed to be glistening like pure glass and emitting a sacred, ethereal aura.

Lin Xun sharply sensed the blessed aura permeating the inside and outside of his body. He was transforming.

Just when he only had two monster cores left, the Origin Aeth Artery stopped devouring like it was satisfied. It spread across the heart, radiating blazing rays of light like the sun.

Rumble—

The sacred aura pervaded the heart, circulated the bones and limbs, and merged with Lin Xun’s energy, spirit and qi.

He breathed a sigh of relief. The crisis had been resolved, and the pressure had been lifted off his heart. He entered a calm and ethereal state.

Taking this opportunity, he held the Chaotic Void Ring in his hand and began to meditate.

Buzz—

In his mind, a clear sound rang like the morning bell and reverberated in his mind-sea like chanting scriptures.

It was the Chaotic Void Dao Scripture, a secret art that had been passed down from the ancestor of the Lin Clan. Only direct descendants of the Lin Clan were able to fathom its mystery using the Chaotic Void Ring.

At the same time, Lin Xun operated the Mystery Grotto Devour Wilderness Scripture, which he inherited from the Omega Secret Realm.

The Origin Aeth Artery blazed like the scorching sun across the four acupuncture points of the heart, exuding a sacred aura that permeated his entire body like the superb liquor of the immortals.

Lin Xun glowed all over, and his handsome, bright face had a detached look like he had become an ethereal deity.

Wisps of Dao sound seemed to be pulsating in the air.

Lin Xun’s body and spirit were undergoing an earthshaking transformation under the combined effect of the Mystery Grotto Devour Wilderness Scripture and the Origin Aeth Artery.

Three days later.

Kacha—

The multiple scars and battle wounds around him started to shed, revealing a layer of translucent, jade-like skin.

Seven days later.

His body was firm, his bones were solid, his muscles were tough as jade, and his blood was translucent and pure. His physical strength had undergone a nirvana-like transformation.

Ten days later.

Spirit stars lit up his mind-sea, shining brilliantly. The dazzling river of stars enveloped the void and illuminated his spirit.

There were a hundred thousand spirit stars, and the way to enter the spirit was through self-cultivation.

That was the first realm of the three great realms of the Little Divine Meditation Art.

Thousands of stars shone brightly in his mind-sea, following along a mysterious trajectory. Its pure, splendid light nourished the inside and outside of the spirit.

Fifteen days later.

Boom!

Lin Xun’s body roared like rumbles of thunder. It was as though mountains were smashing against one another.

His spirit sea had completely changed. The vast sea of aeth power had become a giant abyss.

The giant abyss spun and rotated, generating a terrifying storm of aeth power.

Within the storm of aeth power, the sun and moon floated up and down, stars flickered, lightning intertwined, and thunder roamed. They formed several magnificent and frightening scenes.

A giant abyss was opened up in a sea of qi, and it generated a storm of aeth power, triggering magnificent visions across the world. Any other cultivators’ jaws would drop at the sight.

It was indeed a unique scene. It indicated that Lin Xun’s Grand Abyss Heaven Devourer had reappeared and merged with his cultivation, making it different from the others.

On the twentieth day.

Lin Xun woke up from his meditation. His dark eyes were calm and cold with the image of a giant abyss. They shot out rainbow-like rays, tearing apart the darkness.

The perfect realm of the Spirit Sea Stage.

As Lin Xun felt the changes within his body, joy filled his heart.

Not only did his cultivation reach the perfect realm of the Spirit Sea Stage, but his body and spirit also underwent a complete transformation as though he had reached Nirvana.

Lin Xun took out an aeth sword, one of the spoils he looted. It was an earth-grade aeth tool.

Kacha—

As Lin Xun applied force to his hands, the sword instantly shattered into a shower of light.

Cultivators of the same cultivation stage as him would be stunned to see him crush an earth-grade aeth tool with his bare hands.

Lin Xun got up, and the haze in his heart was swept away. During his time in the Ancient Spirit World, he hadn’t only formed an Origin Aeth Artery but also underwent a nirvana-like transformation. How would he not be excited?

He felt no regret even if he were to leave the Ancient Spirit World right now.

The fourth level of the Great Azure Cloud Path is indeed mysterious. I had suffered tribulations, fought battles, killed many, and underwent a transformation. This is perhaps my opportunity.

Lin Xun stood, contemplating his gains. His long black hair draped over his shoulders, and a rare, warm smile spread across his handsome and sharp face.

From the day he killed Qian Huai to the present, he had been in a constant battle state and hadn’t shown a hint of a smile. His ruthlessness and bloodthirst made other cultivators regard him as a fiendish being.

Now that he had resolved both the internal and external crises, he felt as if his mind had become refreshed and cleared like he had escaped a calamity.

Inexplicably, Lin Xun couldn’t help smacking his lips when he thought about the killings a few days ago. Fortunately, he wasn’t in the Ziyao Empire. Otherwise, he would no doubt be targeted given the number of ancient sect descendants he had killed.

Without thinking much, he walked out of the cave.

Instantly, the joy in his heart vanished, replaced by vigilance.

The fiendish qi in the eerily quiet mountains had grown increasingly strong. Anyone would feel distraught with anxiety and their minds corroded from just breathing it in.

The blood-red mist felt palpable as it enveloped him.

Lin Xun thought of the ancient monster beast skeleton. He then thought of the blood river flowing silently, and the ancient corpse floating in it.

Then, he recalled the single tomb, and his heart inexplicably pounded.

A sense of danger flooded him.

After Lin Xun had undergone the nirvana-like transformation, his spirit had become incredibly sensitive. He sensed an oppressive power within the dangerous mountains about to awaken.

He had to quickly leave.

He drew a deep breath, and a pale blue glow cloaked his body, fending off and dissolving the blood-red fiendish qi in the air.

Then, with a flash, he returned to the original path.

Soon, he neared the solitary tomb, but he planned to avoid it.

Swoosh!

It was at that moment that a slender figure emerged in front of him. Her skin was brighter than snow, and her face was captivatingly beautiful.

It was Lian Dieyi, the descendant of the Thousand Transformation Land.

It's her.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. He found her appearance too coincidental. He had noticed that it looked like something was hunting her down. Her fiery red dress was stained with blood, and her delicate and fair face was a little pale.

Her brows were wrinkled, and her teeth were clenched. Her bright eyes were filled with hatred as she murmured something.

“Help—”

Lian Dieyi suddenly cried out and then darted towards Lin Xun.

“Didn’t you go search for a world-changing opportunity? Why would you appear here?”

Lin Xun suddenly asked.

“Nonsense, this is the Ancient Blood Wasteland where opportunities are born.”

Lian Diyi shot a glare at Lin Xun, growing anxious. “Quick, quick, let’s leave here first. Those guys will be here soon.”

Lin Xun didn’t move an inch and said innocently, “You are being chased, not me.”

“You cruel, heartless boy! I shouldn’t have given you the Scarlet Fire Gourd.”

Lian Dieyi was so furious that she gritted her teeth and wanted to curse at Lin Xun. She would have pummeled him if she wasn’t in such a situation.
