"Ah... I see, okay, I will give it a try!" I Want to Be Immortal was evidently very determined, given that this concerned the happiness of his future. He acted decisively.

Seeing I Want to Be Immortal hurrying offline, Xiao Jie didn’t idle. He directly asked, "Master Mingyue, what materials are needed for the body refinement? Please do guide me, and I will collect them immediately."

Although Xiao Jie couldn’t guarantee anything, he estimated that the chances were quite high. Thus, there was no point in wasting time waiting idly.

"The materials needed are listed here," said Master Mingyue, handing over a list.

Xiao Jie quickly glanced at it.

[Material List (Task Items)]

Golden Sun Fruit ×10, Golden Thorn Grass ×10, Sunflower ×10, Pure Yang Essence ×5, Divine Essence ×5, Refined Gold Ingot ×5...

Indeed, quite a lot of materials. It would have been difficult to gather these in the past, but now...

Xiao Jie directly sent a private message to Longteng Sihai.

Hidden Moon Following Wind: Brother Si Hai, my brother is doing an advanced quest and needs some materials. Can you help gather them?

Longteng Sihai: No problem, send me the list.

Xiao Jie immediately sent the materials list over.

Longteng Sihai: Wow, that much?

Hidden Moon Following Wind: What, is there a problem?

Longteng Sihai: No problem at all. I’ll have the logistics team arrange it, but it might take some time. Please be patient.

At this moment, in the Dragon Soaring Base, Longteng Sihai began to organize people immediately.

"These are the materials Brother Sui Feng needs. Get them ready quickly."

"Wow, that’s a lot. That’s quite expensive."

"Money isn’t an issue. He handed over his territory to us, so we must show our gratitude. Get it done quickly."

Xiao Jie handing over his power was a significant event, so some materials were nothing in comparison.

Longteng Sihai had the logistics team gather the materials and buy any that were lacking in stock.

Afterwards, he inquired with Ah Fu beside him.

"How’s it going on the commander’s side? Any results yet?"

"Not yet, they’re still meeting with the State Governor. It seems they are preparing to ally with Longhua."

In this recent expansion, the New Empire Army was a major monster force. According to the intelligence team, Long Wushang’s army had already occupied Qiansong City and started to invade from there. This guy was extremely confident, launching a three-pronged attack without any tactics of divide and conquer, aiming for a full-on assault.

Longhua State, Fengyin State, and Flowing Fire State all faced attacks from the vanguard of the New Empire Army.

As a result, the armies from the three states began preparing for this war.

Besides the state governors organizing their troops, the three player-founded nations also became direct participants in this storyline event. The First Dynasty established the Great Qin State, and the Aoao Niubi Empire established the Ritian Kingdom. Both had temporarily ceased their conflict to jointly prepare against Long Wushang’s New Empire Army.

Dragon Soaring Country also had to join the battle, leading to six forces directly participating.

It felt very much like the Six Great Factions besieging Bright Summit.

Ordinary player guilds didn’t have the right to participate; only player guilds that founded nations, like Dragon Slayer, had this privilege. Establishing a nation previously, albeit with considerable sacrifice, was the right move; otherwise, they wouldn’t be at the table now.

According to the expert analysis, Dragon Soaring Country’s performance in this alliance war would directly determine its chances of dominating the world afterwards.

State governors in the Nine States were neutral units that wouldn’t attempt usurpation, hence Long Wushang’s actions drew so much hostility.

In other words, if players could demonstrate the charisma of a Human King aiming to unify the world, they could likely win the support of the state governors, which would yield tremendous benefits.

To achieve this, they must showcase their own strength and magnanimity in the upcoming war.

So, the three player nations had to give it their all.

Moreover, the drops from these World Bosses were bound to be unprecedentedly rich, likely better than what the Dragon Slayer had when slaying dragons.

And according to the Dragon Soaring Guild’s expert analysis, Long Wushang might drop an item directly linked to unifying the Nine States and the Longhua Empire—something akin to the Imperial Jade Seal. Securing this would almost guarantee the unification of the Nine States.

To accomplish this, they needed enough top players to join the battle.

Ordinary players could engage in minor skirmishes and participate in events, but against those World Bosses, numbers barely mattered. Critical moments relied on the battle prowess of core elites.

This made Xiao Jie and his group’s value especially important; they needed to be won over.

Even without the power transition, they had to be roped in.

Xiao Jie had no idea about this. When he received the email an hour later, he couldn’t help but admire Dragon Soaring’s efficiency.

With the materials in hand, he returned to Xuanxu Palace and called I Want to Be Immortal.

"How’s it going, Immortal? Finished?"

"Yes, finished." There was a hint of finality and a bit of disappointment in Immortal’s voice.

"What’s wrong? You sound a bit down."

"Ah, it’s nothing. It’s just not quite what I imagined. I thought I would meet a girl who truly loved me, and we’d have a sweet romance..." I Want to Be Immortal said, his voice a bit disheartened and awkward.

Xiao Jie laughed, "Young man, things never go as imagined. As for love, that’s just nonsense for girls. True love doesn’t exist; it’s just a chemical reaction. Power is what matters most.

Pava, got it? With power, love will come. Now, go ask Master Mingyue if there are any issues."

Seeing the three return, Master Mingyue showed no reaction.

"Master, I’ve decided. I can do it. Do you think I’m ready now?"

Master Mingyue looked at I Want to Be Immortal, showing no surprise.

"Since you’ve made your decision, let’s begin."

He led the three to the Alchemy Room.

"Please enter this pill furnace. I will start refining your body now."

Ah! I Want to Be Immortal was shocked. He thought "refinement" was just a metaphor; he didn’t expect to actually enter a pill furnace. Was he to be refined into an Immortal Pill?

"To transform into a Giant Spirit, the Power of Incense must fuse with your soul and body. This process is extremely dangerous, and any mistake could make you vanish into smoke. But as a Yellow Turban Warrior, your body is inherently strong, so you should withstand it.

However, to be safe, you should use some talismans or consume some elixirs."

Fortunately, Xiao Jie was prepared. He traded the ready elixirs and talismans to I Want to Be Immortal.

Fire Extinguishing Talisman!

Three Cold Ice Spirit Pill!

Iron Wall Talisman!

Vajra Talisman!

Protective Divine Light!

All sorts of buffs were ready. Xiao Jie also traded the Five Elements Dominance Robe to I Want to Be Immortal. This robe added 30 points to Fire Resistance.

Ye Luo also traded a cloak that added Fire Resistance.

Fully equipped, I Want to Be Immortal gritted his teeth and clicked on the pill furnace, immediately diving in.

Master Mingyue began the refinement ritual.

Begin!

Whoosh, flames immediately roared outside the pill furnace. Within the flames, I Want to Be Immortal’s figure appeared, with the Protective Divine Light manifesting on his body.

Master Mingyue chanted continuously while refining and casting spells.

"Divine Seal—Giant Spirit Embodiment, appear!"

Golden light converged, forming golden tattoos on I Want to Be Immortal’s body.

"Divine Seal—Infinite Divine Power, appear!"

Another golden light converged.

"Divine Seal—Heavenly Divine Body, appear!"

His entire body was enveloped in golden light.

With a boom, a giant golden figure slowly floated out of the pill furnace, radiating golden light, hovering in mid-air like a descending deity.

"Success!" I Want to Be Immortal shouted excitedly.

He had gained three passive skills.

Giant Spirit Embodiment—Consumes Power of Incense, enlarging the body. Each size increase boosts blood volume by 20%, up to five layers.

Infinite Divine Power—Grants a strength boost, always giving an advantage when attacking evil spirits.

Heavenly Divine Body—Provides full attribute resistance and, most importantly, the ability to learn and cast 1-3 Rank Divine Powers.

Indeed, it succeeded. Now, you have the Giant Spirit Divine Power. Compared to a protector or Divine General, each has its merits. Though slightly weaker in combat, it holds a significant advantage against evil spirits.

"I just thought of a problem. In reality, the game might not be affected, but in real life, wouldn’t it..."

Ah! Xiao Jie was taken aback, "Immortal, there’s something I need to remind you of."

"What is it?" I Want to Be Immortal was still elated.

"Well, although reality doesn’t affect the game, reality does affect reality. So, if you lose your Pure Yang Body, I’m afraid..."

Ah... Damn it!
