Chapter 863: Chapter 178: Forging God’s Body (3/3)

Sharing the Feathered Body, generation after generation of Pure Yang legacy—this is the plan that balances current needs with the long-term strategy of the Bright Mirror Sect.

Briefly bypassing the taboo options of ’Plundering Huai Xu Spirit Qi’ and ’Immortality Skills’, the sect’s sharing of Feather Transformation Dao is already the orthodox principle of Tianyuan—that large companies and groups developed Feathered Bodies, essentially pooling the sect’s power to maintain and develop. The reason it couldn’t be passed down is that the Feathered Body of the Purple Mansion Realm hasn’t yet reached the stage where it needs to be passed down; it’s mass-producible. Meanwhile, the Feathered Body of the Golden Core is equivalent to a Second Primordial Spirit, which is difficult to share.

But Huai Xu is different; Huai Xu is Martial Arts.

The core of Huai Xu Martial Artist is the Inner Array Realm, which doesn’t need to be fixed on the Feathered Body and doesn’t need to be refined into a Second Primordial Spirit. It can be embedded inside as the power source and central control system.

Therefore, it’s necessary to make some Huai Xu Realm featured modifications to the Feather Transformation Dao for Martial Arts.

An Jing himself isn’t strong enough, but he knows many masters like Jin Yanhua and Jiang Ziji, True Lords and Heavenly Lords of Bright Mirror Sect who possess such solid strength.

Upon receiving the various papers exchanged by An Jing and the discussions of Feather Transformation Dao by Heavenly Lords of the Tianyuan Realm, they either had their eyes light up thoughtfully, or they clapped and sighed, deeply moved.

[Feasible]

Lord Cheng Guang said firmly: [The Feathered Body is for me, and also a mirror, creating one’s own body like observing my Mirror Self. This method is highly suitable for my Bright Mirror Sect’s core principle. If this True Skill succeeds, it will certainly be another fundamental path preserving talisman of my sect, even the essential legacy!]

The Heavenly Lord made a judgment: [For this method, the entire sect’s power should be devoted—I will open the Visible Empty Mountain Sect’s treasure house, all spirit lands and spiritual materials of Bright Mirror Sect, fundamental treasures, can be utilized]

[General Jin (Jin Yanhua’s title), Jiang Palace Master, I won’t say things like whether I trust you or not. You both should understand that this method might come from the Dao Courtyard or another world, but in our Huai Xu Realm, it’s definitely the first time opening this path. If succeeded, there will be merit for opening this path, a gift from heaven. I see you both have Strange Mandate in perfection, with hope for Manifesting Holy or even Pure Yang. You both should understand, this is a matter of mutual benefit]

"Lord Cheng Guang, rest assured, with my current Dragon Blood as proof, I, Jin Yanhua, will definitely advance and retreat together with Bright Mirror Sect in this matter!"

Without hesitation, Jin Yanhua swore an oath with blood, and Jiang Ziji was determined: "If I betray, may my Sect Suppressing skill decay and cultivation collapse—sigh, let’s not fuss over ceremonies, let’s start quickly, I’m already eager to begin designing!"

Jiang Ziji was practically itching for Heavenly Mechanism craft, unable to bear inactivity, while Chenyinzi and Ye Po, despite wanting to ask for details, knew that time was of the essence, and the sooner they could create it, the sooner they could counterattack.

Although the goal is to make the Feathered Body into the sect’s legacy Feathered Spirit Puppetry, this is a future plan. Currently, it’s definitely developed with True Lord Xiyi as the core, and optimization and modifications will be dealt with in the future.

The core materials are ready, and the other materials are accumulated over years by Bright Mirror Sect. If there are other rare ones, An Jing can exchange for them. Present are one Heavenly Lord, three True Lords, one Divine Craftsman, one Heavenly Mechanism Master, with no one spied from Bright Mirror Cave Heaven. It was impeccable timing, geographical advantage, and unity, so everyone immediately started discussing the details.

True Lord Xiyi’s Fate Pattern is [Candle Dragon], capable of controlling Yin Yang, water and fire, one of the highest Fate Patterns. If developed further, it would be a creation of heaven and earth, deriving four seasons and sun and moon Candle Dragon Celestial Venerate, though Xiyi hasn’t reached that stage.

An Jing’s strength is inadequate. If he were a True Person, he could contribute to the details, but Martial Meridian indeed couldn’t partake in specific discussions. Yet, An Jing enables Taibai Luminous Godly Ban; he also understands Feather Transformation Dao deeply, and he’s a core Daoist Disciple of Bright Mirror Sect. Lord Cheng Guang specially arranged an observational position for him, allowing him to observe design progress without interference.

Using Jianmu branches as the framework isn’t simply taking the wood for bones but using it as the core, like bone marrow, absorbing life force, causing it to rapidly grow other derivative branches, and under careful guidance, constructing complete skeletal structures and support frames.

Despite the expensive materials, it was very efficient. Jianmu branches even had excess energy; if this energy wasn’t utilized upon Feathered Battle Body completion, it could be used for refining Lifespan Extension Pills, ensuring better effects than any extension pills in Huai Xu Realm.

[I must seriously contribute in the Feathered Battle Body forging, originally my lifespan is insufficient, but with Jianmu branch power, I can even extend my life by two more years]

Lord Cheng Guang sighed greatly, for Martial Artist lacking long lifespan, the Jianmu branch’s life-extending force was the most valuable. He didn’t wish for much, just to surprise opponents by unleashing potent force upon his presumed demise.

Yet actually, An Jing laughed heartily: "Don’t be modest, Lord. Don’t skimp on anything. If truly useful, I can exchange for two more!"

"Not just for your lifespan, even Grandmaster’s Dao injury might be healed."

Everybody present: "..."

Merit was indeed exceptional—Chenyinzi couldn’t hold back: "Jing’er I know you’re kind, but don’t speak nonsensically, my injuries don’t require such a fine treatment—besides, I need to maintain my condition, or else others will spot the change."

"Moreover, use your merit for yourself, stop thinking only of the sect. The sect has already taken too much from you, and won’t take anymore!"

Chenyinzi truly cared for An Jing, even knowing An Jing had significant merit reserves, he desired An Jing to use them personally—even Lord Cheng Guang’s similar opinion, since An Jing essentially represented the future of Bright Mirror Sect, and his success equaled true success.

"Grandmaster, True Lord, and ancestor, if this method succeeds, it’s also my opportunity."

An Jing vaguely revealed some matters of another world: "You’re aware the Feathered Dao classics resulted from slight karma with the other world, and your disciple has an industry in that realm. Now, prominent powers demand collaboration like the master in Great Wilderness Realm."

"If possible, when the time comes, I hope Heavenly Monarch Xiyi or Grandmaster could assist me in gaining backing, support, and trump cards in the other world, so I have confidence in thriving, establishing a third new Bright Mirror Sect!"

These words moved even Lord Cheng Guang a little: [Little An, don’t speak rashly, the sect is always your backing and support, but the third new Bright Mirror Sect...]

At this point, Cheng Guang contemplated: [It’s not impossible]

[Indeed, it’s feasible—this matter generally isn’t problematic. When Bright Mirror Sect’s crisis ends, even if overcome, it’ll suffer great depletion. Then, it shouldn’t swiftly reveal strength, but hibernate... Indeed, focus can shift to Guangchen and your realm...]

Slightly shaking his head, Lord Cheng Guang prepared to act, using Force of Creation on the structured Jianmu skeleton to fill flesh while jointly powerful with all True Lords, centering Void Flowing True Glass to create the ’Divine Soul Chip’.

A True Lord can do this alone, let alone a group of True Lords alongside a Heavenly Lord? Even the best chips in the Tianyuan Realm aren’t this extravagant, and the progress of the Pure Yang Feather Transformation Battle Body is increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Time flies.

During this period, An Jing observed the actions of many True Lords and Heavenly Lords. Using various formations, refining techniques, and numerous secretive intricate methods, they wielded the force of creation to decompose and reshape countless extraordinary materials—enough to make a small sect go bankrupt seven or eight times—into an Immortal and Indestructible Pure Yang Divine Body.

This scene... even initiated the operation of his Taibai Luminous Godly Ban on its own.

"How... similar."

Gazing at this scene, An Jing felt that the magic prohibition within him was also gradually running, mimicking... indeed, the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban itself is a transformation of one’s body through magic prohibition, forging oneself into an immortal artifact.

The so-called [Taibai Disaster Relief Immortal Body] ultimately is about reforging one’s divine body with one’s own power, crafting it into an immortal treasure of the Great Dao—an artifact for overcoming calamities and navigating tribulations. The bitter sea has no bounds; only with this kind of body as a vessel and a ship can one cross those tempestuous tribulations.

Feather Transformation Dao, Martial Path, Immortal Path... Three completely different methods to transform oneself and create the [Immortal Body] all converged within An Jing.

Even as Lord Cheng Guang had said.

[The feathered body is myself, and also a mirror, forging one’s body is as observing the self in the mirror]

Forging a law body related to oneself is like forging a mirror that corresponds with oneself.

And what Jiang Ziji said about the ’Primordial Spirit Puppetry’ further inspired An Jing.

Begin with the Primordial Spirit to forge one’s body... If the Mirror Self is considered the Primordial Spirit, then if the Mirror Self is forged into reality, doesn’t that also constitute a Primordial Spirit Puppetry?

Uncertain, but worth a try.

An Jing believed that with his understanding, he could transform these forces entirely for his own use.

"Forge the divine body, cast the divine mechanism..."

Murmuring softly, beside An Jing appeared the ’Gold Fiend Avatar’, simultaneously with the main body operating the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban—just like viewing a mirror, An Jing was using the Gold Fiend Avatar to emulate the process True Lords and Heavenly Lords used to forge a Pure Yang Feather Transformation Battle Body, fine-tuning his avatar’s Spiritual Fiend structure, selecting the best aspects to integrate into himself, observing and modifying bit by bit.

And in the midst of this process...

He entered enlightenment once again.

Meanwhile.

Various forces also noticed the absence of Chenyinzi and the Ye Po True Lord—they didn’t know the forces behind the other True Lords but were aware of who was truly loyal.

The disappearance of the two loyal True Lords of the Bright Mirror Sect, along with no movements from Cheng Guang, immediately led them to speculate.

—Could it be that they’ve sensed something amiss, preparing to let Chenyinzi and Ye Po hide away with the Heavenly Mirror Shard, abandoning the mountain gate and lying low?

If indeed so, it’s not surprising—they could very well do such a thing, and if they really did, this generation of the Bright Mirror Sect would be finished, their plans for so long amounting to nothing.

Yet, some felt it wasn’t quite like that. The Bright Mirror Cave Heaven still maintained its defenses, and the missing True Lords and Cheng Guang should be inside, but what were they doing?

Should they interfere or keep watching to see what unfolds?

Is the Bright Mirror Sect planning some big strategy or a counterattack?

Beneath the calm waters, dark tides surged; many were eager, while others were warily uneasy.

But soon, a phenomenon made everyone calm down.

Above the heavenly dome, a stream of enlightenment-specific innate Golden Qi light flow descended like a pillar of light straight into the depths of the Bright Mirror Cave Heaven.

A sound, not very grand, but clear and pure enough, resonated with the crisp chiming of a sword.

Suddenly, many who were wary of whether the Bright Mirror Sect would suddenly rise and perish alongside some forces, breathed a sigh of relief.

—So it’s An Jing entering enlightenment, then it’s fine.

Although this kid entered enlightenment again, his talent is indeed terrifying, but in the end, he’s merely at the Martial Meridian Realm, hardly a major threat.

The people of the Bright Mirror Sect were undoubtedly joining forces to employ secret techniques to help An Jing grow, but even a Divine Mandate couldn’t mature this fast; they’ve panicked, totally at a loss whether to advance or retreat!
