Volume 1 Chapter 92 Hope of Becoming Immortal

  A large round table, a group of people held a round-table meeting, buzzing discussions filled the air.

  Bang! Bang!

  The old man sitting in the center raised his hand and tapped twice on the round table, making a dull sound that shook the void and created ripples. This kind of cultivation was simply shocking and unpredictable.

  "Let's talk about it, what's the progress on investigating the robbery at the Temple of Giant Wind City this time?"

  As soon as he spoke, a middle-aged monk stood up and replied with great respect.

  "The High Priest, regarding the culprits who looted our temple, after our investigation, it appears that these two individuals seem to have come out of nowhere, and had never appeared in the Sub-Moon Star Realm before. The first place they appeared was in Giant Wind City, where a human youth sold a piece of Red Practice Copper at the Heavenly Guest Inn for 10,000 top-grade crystal stones. All of this was handled by someone named Zhu San, the shopkeeper. Afterwards, after they left Giant Wind City, the elder of the temple, Jin Wu Xing, led a group of cultivators to kill and rob them, but unfortunately were caught and failed in their attempt. After returning to Giant Wind City, Jin Wu Xing incited Yang Jiu Tian to capture that Bi Fang bird, but before they could take action, they were killed and the temple was directly attacked, leaving it crippled. As a result, all of the temple's wealth and resources were looted clean!"

  The Temple of the Sun God is indeed an invincible force, and from this intelligence power alone, it has already become unbeatable. In a short period of time, the experiences of Wang Qian and Bi Fang appearing in the Subsidiary Star Boundary have been investigated with crystal clarity, as if they had seen it with their own eyes. The horror is evident.

  "Hmm? It seems that this person and bird are very mysterious, they must have some information on them that we don't know about. Looking at their methods, it's highly likely that they specialize in stealing Crystal Elixirs and the like. In that case, I order you to start building Domain Gates in each of the main halls of my Sun God Temple. If they appear again, concentrate our forces and make sure to capture them!"

  This high priest is the ruler of the Temple of the Sun God. His words are law and no one dares to disobey him.

  "High Priest, building so many Domain Gates is a huge expense, almost depleting our temple's thousand-year reserve."

  Although this middle-aged monk did not dare to disobey the high priest's order, he still had to say something crucial.

  "Uh, what you said makes a lot of sense, but our struggle with the Taiyin Temple has reached its most critical moment. Can't we just have one final battle to determine who will control this Sub-Moon Realm? If I can capture that undying being, Bi Fang, I'll be able to truly understand the essence of the Fire Path from his bloodline. At that time, I may even be able to break through the last barrier and become a celestial immortal, which is the most important thing."

  The high priest's words shocked all the senior elders present, and they all stood up, each showing a look of surprise and excitement.

  The main high-level members of the Temple of the Sun God are just seven Taishang Elders, one Grand Priest, all of whom have achieved immortality. However, there are also differences within the realm of immortality, such as the distinction between He Dao Bu Xiu and Du Jian Bu Xiu, as well as the difference between Chang Sheng Bu Xiu. The Grand Priest is a respected elder at the level of Chang Sheng Bu Xiu, one of the strongest people in the Zi Wu Star Realm, with no one being his match except for the Grand Priest of the Temple of the Moon Goddess.

  Just now the Grand Priest actually said that as long as he captures Bi Fang, he can help him break through the last barrier. What a shocking message! Once broken through, the Grand Priest will be an immortal!

  What is a fairy, that is already another level of life, from the structure of life to the strength, are worlds apart. The appearance of a fairy in the Temple of the Sun God, even if the Grand Priest wants to ascend to the Fairy Realm, is enough to thoroughly suppress the Temple of the Moon Goddess at the last moment, ending the dual dominance of the Sub-Moon Star Realm for many years, and becoming the sole ruler of the world under the dominance of the Temple of the Sun God.

  "Great High Priest, is what you're saying true? Can one really become an immortal?"

  "Haha, after all these years, my Sun God Temple can finally produce a celestial being!"

  "That's right! As long as the High Priest becomes immortal, no matter how great the cost is, it's all worth it!"

  Excitement, frenzy, this news directly ignited the hot blood in the high-level body of the Temple of the Sun God, boiling restlessly, and couldn't wait to capture Bi Fang back immediately, then the High Priest would break through to become an immortal, dominating the world, invincible.

  As soon as the round table conference ended, the entire Sun God Temple, this massive machine, began to operate. Countless materials, resources, crystal stones, and various arrays were all taken out from the sealed warehouses. The disciples of the temple started constructing frantically.

  Soon, a gate after another, fantastically hidden in the void, each gate was established on the spatial nodes of various temple halls, and as long as a thought moved, it could be reached instantly.

  This kind of transportation ability is simply terrifying. If Wang Qian and Bi Fang come out at this time and start another looting, it's a certainty that in the next moment, three or four, or even six or seven Immortal Realm Temple Elders will appear out of thin air to launch a fierce attack on them. Even if they are captured, there is an 80-90% chance of success.

  Time flies, and the disciples of the Temple of the Sun God are all on high alert, waiting for Wang Qian and Bi Fang to fall into their trap. But as day after day passes, they still haven't appeared.

  At this time, Wang Qian and Bi Fang did not know that the Temple of the Sun God had set up a big formation for them, but they were cultivating wildly in the belly of the volcano.

  Refine the yuanqi of the Solar Crystal, swallow the True Sun Pill, under sufficient yuanqi energy, one person and one bird's cultivation, soaring like a rocket.

  Buzz!

  Space trembles, in the 3,000-zhang deep underground volcano, ups and downs, as if a treacherous dragon is about to fly up to the nine heavens, vast gas machinery, covering the sky and earth.

  Wang Qian was startled awake from his meditation to find that Bi Fang's entire body was engulfed in a fierce flame, which had transformed into a pure blue color. Although it looked weak, the temperature within was terrifyingly high, and once it erupted, its energy would be no less than that of a dozen volcanoes erupting simultaneously.

  The old bird's cultivation has reached an extreme, the skeleton and flesh in its body are undergoing a mysterious transformation, evolving towards a perfect level.

  A perfect and harmonious aura emanates from him, in the distant void, there is a faintly discernible mighty and stirring movement of energy.

  "Heavenly Tribulation's Breath!"

  Wang Qian and Tian Jie were familiar with each other, so they recognized each other at once. He understood that Bi Fang Niao's cultivation had almost reached the peak of merging with the Dao and becoming immortal, and the next step would be to cross the tribulation of immortality, truly entering the second level of the realm of immortality, transcending the calamity of immortality!

  Wow!

  A wisp of flames spewed out from Bi Fang's mouth, and the aura on his body gradually calmed down, not truly stirring up the Nine Heavenly Thunder.

  Wang Qian let out a sigh of relief, he was also very nervous. Once Bi Fang started his tribulation, that kind of powerful and unyielding thunder tribulation was not something his current cultivation could withstand. The outcome would be worrying, but fortunately, at the critical moment, Bi Fang controlled the energy exploding within his body.

  "Haha, after such a long time, I've finally cultivated to this point, survived the thunder tribulation, and have hopes of becoming an immortal!"

  Bi Fang burst out laughing.

  "I can't afford to trigger the tribulation now, otherwise the undying-level thunder calamity will definitely be sensed by the strong of the Sun God Temple. It's safer for us to operate in secret while they are in the open. Once we take the stage, the temple's power can deal with us unscrupulously, and it won't end well. For now, I'll suppress my cultivation, and at a critical moment, directly trigger the undying thunder calamity, which will definitely be able to kill a large number of people, haha!"

  Bi Fang, this old bird, had a sinister plan in his heart, which was the same as the trick Wang Qian used when he left Feng Huang Valley, to lure and kill his enemies with thunderbolts.

  "This is great, I have a feeling that the Tribulation of the Undying Realm is definitely extraordinary and can be hidden as a killer move."

  Wang Gan also agreed that the two of them were alone and weak in the Zi Wu Xing realm, so they had to calculate every bit of power they could use. Only then could they reduce the danger to its lowest level.

  Next, Bi Fang stopped cultivating, the energy in his body had accumulated to a peak, and if he wasn't careful, it would attract heavenly thunderbolts. Where else could he dare to accumulate cultivation? He could only start contemplating the Great Way of Heaven and Earth, and elevate his soul's realm. This way, when crossing the tribulation, it would be relatively easier.

  Wang Qian didn't have such considerations, his current internal energy was lacking, and his cultivation was always inferior to the spiritual realm. With a large amount of crystal pills and elixirs, it was just right to upgrade them.

  Through the turbulent sea of suffering, the golden bridge stretched out in all directions, continuously absorbing the energy of the crystal stones and the yuanqi of the elixirs. His divine power grew increasingly dense, the golden bridge condensed, gradually giving rise to a kind of substantial feeling.

  The third turn of the Nine Turns Refining Body practice has reached an extremely profound level.

  Rumble!

  Wang Qian's body was filled with surging energy, his breath was like a mighty storm, and the surrounding void was shaken. His entire being radiated divine light, like a Buddha deity, majestic and dignified, ancient and mysterious.

  Third transfer completed successfully!

  At this moment, Wang Qian has thoroughly advanced to the third turn of the Great Perfection, and can also be considered a cultivator of the foundation layer. Next, he will have to cross the tribulation of thunder and enter the realm of the original fetus. At that time, the Nine Turns Body Refining Technique will break through the fourth turn, which is a qualitative change, and can evolve into the next divine ability.

  "This is not good, my thunder tribulation is not small either. At this time, triggering heavenly thunder would be quite dangerous. If I were to be discovered, it would be extremely bad."

  Wang Gan opened his eyes, furrowed his brow, and felt extremely frustrated. His powerful kung fu and exceptional combat skills were not enough to break through a major boundary, and he would have to endure another tribulation of thunder. This was especially troublesome now that he had infiltrated the enemy's camp, where every move required extreme caution, lest he suffer the consequences of death and destruction. He couldn't help but carefully weigh his gains and losses.

  "How is it? Have you also cultivated to an extreme? The next step is to cross the tribulation of thunder?"

  Bi Fang was very clear about Wang Qian's cultivation, and also knew the secret of his zombie body. However, this didn't matter to him. He currently had a good impression of Wang Qian, feeling that this person would have an unlimited future. As long as the two maintained a good relationship, it would be greatly beneficial for Bi Fang. Therefore, he completely ignored Wang Qian's zombie identity.

  "Yes, your tribulation cannot be crossed, and my own tribulation is not small either. However, if I don't cross the tribulation, advance to the Yuan Tai realm, my power is still too weak, and in the next battle, it's fundamentally impossible to turn the tide of the situation, what a headache!"

  Wang Qian was helpless.

  Suddenly, a massive shockwave erupted at the Subnoon Star Boundary, seemingly caused by an extraordinary strong being, who was engaged in an intense battle that had been ongoing without rest. This sudden disturbance startled Wang Qian and Bi Fang, who were hiding deep within the volcano's belly.
