Chapter 109: Frightening Upgrade
As soon as the golden light appeared, whether it was the five powers of the Five-Polarization Mirror or the infinite stars, they were suddenly sealed. However, the sealing time was extremely short, less than a second. But it was this brief moment that disrupted the power of the Five-Polarization Mirror.
Wuji's Polarization Mirror was originally about to cut off the endless stars in Kong Fangzi's Purple Mansion and merge them into his clone, but under the influence of the golden light, the endless stars suddenly doubled, with each star's true shadow accompanied by a identical heavy shadow.
If Kong Fang hadn't fainted and saw this scene, he would definitely be shocked speechless.
The method of refining the soul was originally judged by the number of starry true shadows, although the more starry true shadows under one branding, the greater the benefits. But with the terrifying number of endless stars, even if they are all scattered branding, the effect on the divine soul is also terrible.
At this time, the true shadow of the star in Kong Fang's divine soul had directly doubled.
In the vastness, a certain power ran through Kong Fang's Zifu and body. The endless stars that had just appeared were like Kong Fang's Earthly Soul, directly disappearing from Kong Fang's Zifu.
But that's not all, the golden light twisted a few times under the illumination of the endless stars, and then actually transformed into a golden figure, which was...
Golden Light Divine Soul!
Kong Fang used the Five Elements Mirror to split his body, but after being stripped of his Earthly Heavenly Gift by the Five Elements Mirror, a Golden Heavenly Soul suddenly burst out from the darkness below his original Earthly Heavenly Soul.
The half-blooded dragon and the dragon seeker outside had no idea what was happening, they only saw that the five-colored light enveloping Kong Fang's body suddenly grew much larger, covering an area of nearly ten feet around him.
Above this five-colored light cluster, there are also five-colored light pillars connecting heaven and earth.
Suddenly, the wind and clouds changed color. In the high sky, a strong gust of wind howled, and blackish-purple dark clouds suddenly appeared from nowhere, covering an area of thousands of miles. Only to see the purple lightning that traversed thousands of miles, like a giant dragon, twisting and flashing in the dark clouds.
Lightning flashed, thunder boomed. The sky seemed to be torn apart directly. The small island trembled, and the surrounding lake water set off waves tens of meters high. If it weren't for the power of the Dragon King guarding the small island, it would have been instantly destroyed by these huge waves.
In the Qianlong Lake, all the aquatic demons and half-blooded dragon descendants were terrified in their hearts, and they quickly dived to the bottom of the lake. They sensed a fatal threat from the purple lightning in the sky. If struck by the purple lightning in the sky, none of them would be able to survive.
"The Five-Polarization Mirror is indeed a treasured artifact, but it's impossible for it to possess such terrifying power. What's going on here? It's just cutting out a split body, how can it cause such a huge commotion?" The Half-Blood Dragon was shocked as he looked at all this, although he had never seen anyone cut out a split body before, but he had heard some rumors about it. However, he had never heard that simply cutting out a split body would cause such a huge commotion.
In the midst of the five-colored light, Kong Fang, who had fainted, slowly came back to consciousness.
Kong Fang was shocked to discover that there was an additional person wearing a yellowish-brown long gown in front of him. However, when he clearly saw the appearance of the person in front of him, Kong Fang suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.
The person who appeared in front of him was wearing different clothes, but his figure and face were surprisingly identical to his own, giving him a very strange feeling of looking at himself.
"This is the split body cut out by the five-pole differentiation mirror?" Looking at the person in front of him, who was wearing a yellowish-brown long gown and had his eyes tightly closed, Kong Fang felt a strange sensation in his heart. He found that his consciousness seemed to have been divided into two parts, which could control two different bodies at the same time.
It's like a person's left and right hands, which can perform different actions at the same time but are controlled by the same consciousness.
"A strange and curious feeling." Kong Fang's heart had just given rise to a thread of astonishment, when his face suddenly changed color, "This... what exactly happened while I was unconscious?"
Kong Fang suddenly discovered that he still had spiritual energy within his body, but it was no longer the familiar earth-based spiritual energy. Instead, it was a sharp and piercing metal-based spiritual energy.
Just as Kong Fang's consciousness was about to enter the Purple Mansion for inspection, a white light column as thick as an arm suddenly shot down from the five-colored light column on his head. This white light column directly merged into Kong Fang's body and earth attribute avatar.
As the light column merged into his body, Kong Fang felt that the entire world suddenly became unreal, as if he was dreaming, his body was out of control, and even his consciousness became dizzy.
Kong Fang's face changed greatly, and his heart was even more shocked. In order to use the Five Elements Separation Mirror to cut out a clone, Kong Fang had spent some time searching for jade slips in the past, so he had some understanding of it. However, what happened now made Kong Fang completely confused. Using the Five Elements Separation Mirror to separate clones was originally an easy task, but now there were so many unexpected changes.
Just as Kong Fang's body was beyond his control and his consciousness began to wander, both Kong Fang's main body and the Earthly Branch avatar were undergoing tremendous changes.
The first to undergo a change was Kong Fang's Zifu, the divine soul within his Zifu growing at an extremely terrifying speed, while the endless starlight of the stars also shone down on the two bodies' earth and metal souls.
The growth of the divine soul is originally restricted, and if the divine soul is too weak, even if the soul refining technique is extremely high-level, it cannot make the divine soul grow too fast. This is also why Kong Fang has endless stars, but the growth speed of his divine soul cannot be much faster than that of a cultivator of the same realm.
However, for those with higher boundaries, the soul-refining method is even more advanced, and the growth rate of the divine soul is also faster. In other words, as long as Kong Fang's boundary continues to improve, his advantage of having endless stars will gradually emerge.
But at this time, whether it was the golden divine soul in his body or the earth divine soul in his avatar, after being merged into his body by that white light, the growth of the two divine souls was no longer restricted, and they were rapidly increasing like rockets.
The Earthly Soul in the clone was originally four zhang tall, but it had already grown to four and a half zhang. The Golden Soul in Kong Fang's true body was even more exaggerated, when it first appeared in the Purple Mansion, it was still a large distance from one zhang, but in just a short moment, it had already grown to two zhang, its growth speed was much faster than the clone.
The growth rate of the Earthline God Soul in the Avatar was already exaggerated, and I didn't expect the main body to be even more exaggerated.
Kong Fang's consciousness was drifting, and although he also discovered the changes in the Purple Mansion, at this time it was like a drunk person, his consciousness was not very clear, only vaguely sensing but unable to carefully observe.
In a brief moment, the earth attribute divine soul in Kong Fang's split body had already reached 9 zhang 9 chi, and the gold attribute divine soul in his main body was also not far from 9 zhang.
As long as Kong Fang's spiritual soul can reach ten zhang, Kong Fang will be considered to have formally entered the Ling Realm. A spiritual soul of ten zhang is the threshold for entering the Ling Realm, but generally, when people reach nine zhang and nine chi, they will encounter a bottleneck. Once encountering a bottleneck, the effect of the Soul Refining Technique will not be great, because the spiritual soul will no longer absorb the power from the Starlight True Shadow, and can only think of ways to break through the bottleneck, so that the spiritual soul can continue to grow.
Although his consciousness was wandering, Kong Fang also sensed that the Earth Escape had reached its most critical moment. However, Kong Fang could do nothing now and could only wait quietly.
A faint sound suddenly came from the Zi Fu in Tuxing's divided body, as if something had cracked. However, this sound was not heard by the ear, but was sensed by Kong Fang's consciousness.
This sound was the voice of the Earthly Soul breaking free from its shackles, and afterwards, the Earthly Soul began to advance by leaps and bounds once again.
Ten jō, eleven jō, twelve jō...
Jin Xing's divine soul was also unwilling to show weakness, and with a burst of energy, he chased after Tu Xing's divine soul.
Kong Fang's wandering consciousness suddenly relaxed, and then became extremely excited.
The bottleneck has its difficulties and ease, but Kong Fang never thought that the bottleneck from the Ling Soul Realm to the Spirit Realm would be so easy to cross, it was as if he had done everything unknowingly.
From breaking through the Ling Soul Realm to entering the Spiritual Soul Realm, the divine soul must grow to ten zhang, but from entering the Spiritual Soul Realm to ascending to the Ascended Spirit Realm, the divine soul must grow to one hundred zhang.
Sensing the two divine souls rapidly growing and strengthening, Kong Fang's heart was stirred with excitement, and he had forgotten how this strange occurrence could have suddenly happened to him. At this moment, he was looking forward to the two divine souls breaking through the hundred-zhang mark again and entering the Ascending Spirit Realm. As long as both divine souls reached the hundred-zhang mark, Kong Fang would be able to break free from the constraints of his Innate Pure Heaven's Gift.
However, Kong Fang, who was too excited, neglected one thing - he now possessed two kinds of innate talents, Earth and Metal, although they were each possessed by his clone and original body respectively. Could this still be considered a pure innate talent?
Of course, this is also because Kong Fang's consciousness was a bit dull at this time, and his reaction was very slow, so he couldn't find the problem immediately.
The Earthly Soul and the Golden Soul both grew to twenty zhang at the same time, after which the growth speed of the two souls became the same.
After half an hour had passed, Kong Fang's Metal and Earth Spiritual Souls had grown to forty zhang. Following that, the growth speed of the two Spiritual Souls suddenly slowed down, no longer having that rocket-like boost as before.
Although he didn't directly break through to the Ascension Realm, Kong Fang was already satisfied. In just over half an hour, he reached a realm that others might take tens or even decades to achieve; what more could he be dissatisfied with?
However, the changes in Kong Fang's body were not over yet. After his divine soul became stronger, the five-colored light suddenly shot out a pure heavenly and earthly power. These heavenly and earthly powers were so pure that they almost didn't need to be refined before they could be directly absorbed by the dantian.
The power of heaven and earth was like a free gift, forming strips of light around Kong Fang's main body and the Earthly Branch avatar, rapidly increasing Kong Fang's strength.
Another half hour passed in the blink of an eye, and just as Kong Fang was getting somewhat numb to this explosive growth, the Five Polarization Mirror suddenly shattered.
The five-colored light pillar connecting the heaven and earth disappeared first, followed by the disappearance of the dark purple cloud with lightning flashing constantly. The sky finally shone again on the Thousand Dragon Lake, and all the half-blooded dragon and water-dwelling monsters that were hiding at the bottom of the lake felt the danger disappear before they dared to surface, looking around in shock and uncertainty.
The five-colored light halo surrounding Kong Fang's body began to slowly dissipate.
"It's finally over." The half-blood dragon let out a long sigh.
It's not a human, otherwise it would be necessary to wipe away cold sweat. The previous scene was really too scary, if it wasn't for knowing that Kong Fang was cutting off his own body, the Half-Blooded Dragon would have suspected that some peerless expert was crossing the tribulation.
