Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 719 - 713: The Treasure Melding Law Formula!_1

Chapter 719: Chapter 713: The Treasure Melding Law Formula!_1

Three Bizarre Immortals? Not a single Bizarre Golden Immortal-level powerhouse?

Jia Ren confirmed there were no other Bizarre Immortals before he finally breathed a sigh of relief. His biggest worry was a powerful Bizarre Golden Immortal attacking the Yuan Ling Mine Vein, a problem he couldn’t handle. That was why he’d planned to guard the mine cave and wait for Heavenly Immortal View’s rescue. Three Devious Dao True Immortals were formidable, but escaping shouldn’t be an issue for him.

A pair of golden wings materialized behind Jia Ren, transforming him into a streak of golden light that shot out, evading the black spear’s strike. He then became a bolt of lightning, rocketing into the distance. Jia Ren had no intention of staying to fight the Bizarre Immortals to the death; he decisively beat a hasty retreat. Moving with the astonishing speed of a Golden-Winged Peng Bird, he had already flown out of the mine cave in an instant.

"You think you can escape from us? It’s simply a pipe dream!"

A black membrane suddenly materialized at the Yuanling Mine Cave’s exit, blocking his path. When the three Bizarre Immortals had broken in, they had already established a Bizarre Formation at the entrance, trapping everyone inside to be slaughtered.

BOOM!

The Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda mark surfaced on Jia Ren’s forehead. His right arm was swiftly enveloped in a layer of black light, resembling the finest black jade. His fist violently tore through the black membrane, carving a passage to hope. The contaminating power within the black membrane clung to his fist, but before it could spread, an emergent suction force from his fist devoured it entirely.

With the black membrane gone, Jia Ren transformed into a streak of golden light and vanished. From then on, it was as the saying goes: the vast ocean allows the fish to leap, and the boundless sky lets the bird fly.

The three Bizarre Immortals realized something was amiss and flew over, but they were still a step too late. They could only watch helplessly as the golden light vanished over the horizon. His speed was too great; there was no possibility of catching him.

"You can’t escape!" an eerie voice resonated in Jia Ren’s ear. He felt an itching sensation on his neck, as if something were rapidly growing there. Gradually, a head began to sprout from the back of his neck, its face identical to the Bizarre Immortal who had transformed its black flesh into a spear. This Bizarre Immortal had clearly mastered a Bizarre Law related to flesh and blood, displaying abilities that sent shivers down one’s spine.

Jia Ren tried to use the Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force within his body to resist, but it was futile. His power was being assimilated by the Bizarre Law, converted into the Bizarre Immortal’s strength. With his power waning and the enemy’s growing, he had no chance of victory.

What a terrifying method! What means did the Immortals in the Chaotic Immortal Realm use to resist the Power of the Bizarre Principle wielded by the Bizarre Immortals?

The Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda mark on Jia Ren’s forehead blazed brightly. The black light, no longer confined to his right arm, spread to every corner of his body. The Bizarre Law clashed with the unique Power of Laws emanating from the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda and disintegrated on contact, as if the Pagoda’s power was its nemesis.

"What is this power?!"

"Impossible! How can you possess the Power of Laws?!"

The shriek nearly pierced Jia Ren’s eardrums. As the black jade luster enveloped his entire body, the flesh grown by the Power of the Bizarre Principle rapidly decayed. It turned into putrid flesh and pus, trickling down his neck. His Cyan Daoist Robe vibrated, expelling all the filth and returning to its pristine condition.

Throughout this ordeal, Jia Ren never ceased his flight and had long since vanished without a trace.

The three Bizarre Immortals stood at the entrance to the Yuanling Mine Cave, their eyes filled with shock and unwillingness.

"A True Immortal, no more than ten thousand years old, possessing the Power of Laws—and a Law that suppresses the flesh Demonic Path at that! If he is encountered again, every effort must be made to kill him."

The Bizarre Immortal slowly retracted his gaze, glanced at the cultivators inside the Yuanling Mine Cave who were now slaughtering each other, and ceased communicating via the Trickster Immortal Artifact.

"Once those old geezers ’above’ are depleted and die, the Chaotic Immortal Realm will become our Bizarre Immortals’ domain."

Jia Ren dared not delay for a moment. His Golden-Winged Peng Bird wings beat powerfully, and he transformed into a streak of golden light, vanishing swiftly into the sky. It was bad news for him whether a Golden Immortal from Heavenly Immortal View arrived or a Bizarre Golden Immortal came personally. He had no desire to be drawn into the vortex of this battle.

After fleeing eastward for more than 5,000,000 miles, Jia Ren meticulously checked himself for any tracking devices or Bizarre marks. Finding none, he located a cave to rest.

He opened the White Compass, releasing the unconscious Xu Qiyuan. Black and white light swirled in Jia Ren’s palm before descending upon Xu Qiyuan’s head, effortlessly grinding it into dust. Jia Ren’s contractual obligation to Heavenly Immortal View had expired; killing Xu Qiyuan would no longer incur any repercussions.

He had deliberately preserved two small pieces of flesh, which he tossed into the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl to feed his Xuan Beast Avatar. Consuming the Corpse-Eating Bizarre Pill along with the flesh of Xu Qiyuan and Yu Qianrou, the two became inseparable within the Xuan Beast Avatar’s stomach, akin to Dao companions. If they couldn’t be together in life, they could at least be buried together in death.

The power of the Corpse-eating Bizarre absorbed their strength, allowing Jia Ren to master all the Hermit Immortal Techniques and Immortal Path Divine Powers they had learned.

Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body! Treasure Melding Law Formula!

Xu Qiyuan and Yu Qianrou had possessed numerous Immortal Path Divine Powers and secret techniques, naturally including the Immortal Path Divine Power known as Myriad Immortals Fall, as well as Yu Qianrou’s Hermit Immortal Technique, the Red Lotus Immortal Fire Technique.

The true prizes, however, were the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body and Heavenly Immortal View’s method for absorbing the Law of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure for one’s own use: the Treasure Melding Law Formula.

Jia Ren had personally witnessed the power of the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body. Unfortunately, Xu Qiyuan’s foundation was far less profound than his own, and Xu Qiyuan hadn’t fully mastered it. Otherwise, defeating Xu Qiyuan in his previous state would have been no easy task.

The Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body, created by the Daluo Golden Immortal Qing Lian Xian Di, was divided into nine levels and could only be cultivated starting from the Loose Immortal Realm. Xu Qiyuan had indeed received only a fragmented Method Gate, comprising just the first four levels.

The first two levels had no prerequisites but were notoriously difficult to learn and master. Many Mystical Immortals from Heavenly Immortal View practiced this technique, yet very few succeeded. The Mystical Immortal Divine Powers corresponding to these first two levels were Green Lotus Swing and Green Lotus Ferrying, respectively.

The third level required melding the Power of Laws to refine the mystical body, and its Mystical Immortal Divine Power was Qing Lian Sheng, which significantly enhanced vitality and healing abilities by dozens or even hundreds of times. Mastering the fourth level bestowed the Mystical Immortal Divine Power Qing Lian Xiu, granting the terrifying ability to corrode Immortals and Immortal Artifacts.

The specific abilities of the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body varied depending on the Laws infused by the cultivator. For example, life-aspected Laws enhanced the power of Qing Lian Sheng, while destruction-aspected Laws augmented the capabilities of Qing Lian Xiu.

Immortals could only cultivate it up to the second level, with no hope of further progression. Xu Qiyuan’s cultivation level was insufficient; he hadn’t grasped the technique’s essence and had to rely on external forces to manifest the Divine Powers of the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body. Even so, the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body remained one of the most preeminent Mystical Immortal Method Gates.

The Treasure Melding Law Formula was also a unique secret technique. It was an approach discovered by top-tier Immortals seeking a way to continue along the Great Dao after The Three Thousand Great Paths had transformed into the Three Thousand Bizarre Paths. However, it ultimately relied on shortcuts.

By incorporating a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure and several other treasures inherently imbued with the Power of Laws into one’s body, the corresponding Power of Laws would be refined into oneself, replacing the Power of Laws that was originally based on the Great Dao. With this method, Immortals could indeed tread the path of mystical bodies and True Immortals.

Its disadvantages were obvious. The Power of Laws within a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure was finite; it couldn’t draw upon the Power of Laws from heaven and earth to grow stronger. The total amount of Law within the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure was fixed and wouldn’t increase with one’s Cultivation Level. Furthermore, if the Treasure Melding Law Formula wasn’t mastered perfectly and couldn’t fully integrate the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, the Power of Laws wouldn’t be able to persist within the body. Each use of this assimilated Power of Laws would lead to its permanent depletion. Once the Power of Laws was exhausted, the cultivator would even drop from their current Realm.

Despite its various flaws, the Treasure Melding Law Formula was the only solution for those who had lost hope on the Immortal Path. Once this secret technique spread throughout the Immortal Realm, the value of Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures skyrocketed. Their numbers were severely limited compared to Immortal Artifacts, and with countless Immortals vying for them, they had become nearly extinct 80,000 years ago. This also explained why Xu Qiyuan had been so ecstatic upon learning Jia Ren possessed a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, even contemplating murder to silence him and keep the information secret.

Heaven truly favors me!

Jia Ren read the Treasure Melding Law Formula from beginning to end, confirmed its recording on his Proficiency Panel, and a smile touched his lips. He had previously despaired, worrying about how to advance when the Great Dao was obstructed, leaving no hope for promotion. It was truly like receiving a pillow just as one was nodding off. Although this method had an extremely low ceiling, it was a solution nonetheless.

With the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body and the Treasure Melding Law Formula, Jia Ren’s path forward was now clear. However, cultivating these two Immortal Dao Secret Techniques wouldn’t rapidly increase his combat power. The most pressing task was to concoct Ascension Pills to eliminate the Red Dust Tribulation Qi in his body. The feeling of his strength being restricted was far from pleasant.

Jia Ren took out the necessary ingredients and began Alchemy.

This wasn’t his first time performing Alchemy for Ascension Pills. Previously, with the Wish Bizarre Wheel’s assistance, he had spent over seventy years concocting numerous Ascension Pills and had long since achieved a Pure Refined Flame mastery of the process.

「Seven years later.」

Wisps of clear qi rose from within the Pill Furnace, signaling the completion of nine Ascension Pills, each bearing Eighteen Dao Pill Patterns.

Perfect!

Jia Ren took out one such eighteen-patterned Ascension Pill and consumed it. Its medicinal power, considerably greater than that of ordinary Ascension Pills, dissolved within him, dispelling the Red Dust Tribulation Qi at an astonishing rate. As the influence of the Red Dust Tribulation Qi diminished, the oppressive pressure from heaven and earth gradually weakened, and his strength began to increase dramatically.

One eighteen-patterned Ascension Pill is equivalent to ten of the previous ones!

The high-quality Elixir had a remarkable effect. Its potency far surpassed ordinary pills; it was of higher quality and dispelled significantly more Red Dust Tribulation Qi. His strength recovered to twenty percent of its peak.

Another one!

He consumed another Ascension Pill, continuing to clear the vast Red Dust Tribulation Qi. After swallowing eight more in quick succession, he finally dissipated all the Red Dust Tribulation Qi from his body. Instantly, his body felt light and powerful, free from the constant oppressive force. The Immortal Spiritual Qi within him became active again, and his absorption of Immortal Spiritual Qi for cultivation was no longer hindered.

Finally, my strength has returned to its peak!

Jia Ren stretched his body, a radiant smile on his face. His blood and qi surged once more, seemingly reaching for the heavens. The immense blood qi, nurtured by massive quantities of Yang Anode Blood Essence Pills, was unmatched by any Mystical Immortal in the True Immortal Realm. Once he began cultivating Mystical Immortal techniques, this potent blood qi would serve as fuel, rapidly strengthening his physique and elevating his physical capabilities at an astonishing rate.

Embarking on the path of the Mystical Immortal was certainly important, but True Immortal techniques were even more crucial. The Heavenly Treasure Immortal Force accumulated within the Xuan Tian Zhen Mo Xian Ta was no less formidable than his blood qi.

Jia Ren opened his Proficiency Panel, searching for the Heavenly Treasure Spirit Cultivation Technique. Previously, to maximize benefits, he hadn’t rushed to break its limits. Now, having collected numerous techniques for reference, he could use the Proficiency Panel to create a Cultivation Technique perfectly suited to himself.

Break the limits!
