Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 564: Chapter 582: Perfect Breakthrough

These revelations caused Lin Feng’s mind to throb with a sudden, intense pain far surpassing the agony of soul separation, forcing a groan from his lips.

At that moment, the Nascent Soul within his mind opened its eyes, showing a trace of agony before quickly shutting them again.

It was a while before the pain finally receded. Lin Feng withdrew his Divine Sense from the Reincarnation Bracelet, slowly grasping the information transmitted by Qingshuang. Although incomplete, he at least gleaned some details about past events.

Not understanding why the Nascent Soul had opened its eyes, Lin Feng glanced at the Reincarnation Bracelet on his wrist and laughed bitterly, ”I hope using it next time won’t be as painful. Who would’ve thought the Lonely Demon Venerable is not of this world? It’s astonishing indeed.”

”Heh heh, Lin Feng, now that you know, isn’t it hard to believe? The Lonely Demon Venerable is also a Soul Body, possessing frighteningly high power, but as a Soul Body, he can’t break through the Barrier Space of this world. To return, he needs your help,” said Sword Spirit.

”What do you mean? Why does he need our help? If that’s true, why did he incite the Blood Emperor and the Demon Lord to attack me? Isn’t that contradictory?” asked Lin Feng, puzzled.

”For the Lonely Demon Venerable to leave this world, he must shatter the void — not the Space Black Hole kind, but a barrier. This barrier was sealed tens of thousands of years ago, and can only be broken by someone beyond the Saint Martial Realm.

Because you’re missing something necessary for a breakthrough, you can’t shatter it. If I’m not mistaken, the Lonely Demon Venerable has stayed in this world for tens of thousands of years and knows its dynamics thoroughly, as well as the strength of you top experts from that time.

But you can’t meet the conditions to shatter the void, so he needs you to fight, develop enmity, and reincarnate, becoming super strong based on past-life memories. In essence, the Dark Forces were not trying to kill you but temper you,” said Sword Spirit.

Lin Feng drew a sharp breath upon hearing this. Although Sword Spirit’s words were hard to accept, he had to acknowledge them, amazed at the Lonely Demon Venerable’s patience to wait for tens of thousands of years.

”If we can’t reach that realm, won’t he never leave here? Why not become an Overlord in this world?” asked Lin Feng.

”Heh heh, Lin Feng, you underestimate yourself. There’s a reason I chose you. I know the true identity of the Lonely Demon Venerable better than anyone. He waited tens of thousands of years, didn’t I? Both waiting for an opportunity to leave,” said Sword Spirit.

Becoming increasingly perplexed, Lin Feng asked, ”Waiting for that opportunity? Wasn’t the Xuanyuan Emperor Palace that appeared in the sky supposed to take you away? Why didn’t you leave? Why did you stay?”

”For you. We share the same Soul Body. If I left, your soul would suffer grievously, possibly turning you into an idiot or killing you outright. I couldn’t allow that, so I stayed. But I believe it won’t be long before you can lead me back,” said Sword Spirit.

”I haven’t even broken through to the Saint Martial Realm, let alone the next one beyond that. Maybe in a few hundred years, if I’m lucky, I can do it. Sister Yue’Er, I may disappoint you,” Lin Feng said helplessly.

”You alone can achieve it in this world. Once you break through the Saint Martial Realm, your power will escalate quickly. When your Bloodline Power fully awakens, you’ll reach unimaginable heights rapidly. You’ll understand then because your mind contains this world’s unique Nascent Soul.

Some truths you know already don’t help and only cause psychological shadows. You’ve been in Qingshuang’s memory fusion for six months; it’s time to quickly complete the Five Element Fusion. And don’t disturb me without reason. I want a quiet rest,” said Sword Spirit.

Though Lin Feng wanted to ask more, he refrained on hearing her words. He was taken aback to realize he’d unknowingly spent another six months in this underground chamber. Time indeed flew by too quickly.

Composing his Heart Spirit, Lin Feng began to slowly attempt the Five Element Fusion, analyzing the interplay of mutual enhancement and restraint. The Water and Fire Elements have fused, and the Gold, Wood, and Earth Elements have too. Now they all must merge together, requiring a certain synergy, or understanding of the fusion sequence among the Five Elements, to succeed.

It’s easier said than done, posing real challenges. Lin Feng repeatedly failed, the elemental contradictions often injuring him. Though these injuries weren’t severe, the failures were tedious.

One day, Lin Feng declared loudly, ”I’ve done it! I finally succeeded; I can control the Five Elements at will. Does this mean I now possess an Undying Body?”

”Heh heh, the Undying Body is far off, but your attack power has substantially strengthened. Right now, using the Five Elements with Earth Slash may unleash Celestial Slash’s might. Isn’t that terrifying?” said Sword Spirit.

”Not just terrifying, unbelievably so. Sister Yue’Er, there should be no match for me now in Canglan Ancient Land. Should I seek out descendants of the Black Tortoise Bloodline to break the Netherworld Barrier and obtain the Netherworld Purple Orchid?” inquired Lin Feng.

”The time is right, but I must warn you: visit the Vermilion Bird Divine Hall, not the Divine Dragon Hall, or you’ll regret it. After securing the Netherworld Purple Orchid and elevating your power to the Saint Martial Realm, then go,” said Sword Spirit.

Lin Feng understood without asking further. The Divine Dragon Hall surely housed supreme experts. He wasn’t yet a match for them. The Vermilion Bird Divine Hall likely had similar figures, but Lin Ruoxi’s connection would spare him harm, maybe even gain support.

Breaking the Netherworld Entrance Barrier to acquire the Netherworld Purple Orchid benefits all, with no reason for refusal.

”Got it, I’m heading out to find the Black Tortoise Bloodline descendants,” said Lin Feng.

”Indeed, you should leave; you’ve spent over a year here already,” said Sword Spirit.

”Over a year?! Good heavens!” Lin Feng suddenly felt how swiftly time had passed...
