The festivities lasted an entire night.
After that night of joy and excitement, all of the pavilion lords, elders, and sect disciples left to get some rest.
An Lin enjoyed an entire night of his disciple Ye Ling’s massage and talked with Xu Xiaolan about many things. Now that he was brimming with vital energy and had no intention to sleep at all, he thought back to a certain decision he made last night.
“It’s about time I absorbed Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao true intent ”
An Lin used his divine sense to scan a certain ball within his body.
Xu Xiaolan stood beside him with a solemn expression to act as his guardian.
Ye Ling, Da Bai, Tina, Little Gu, Su Qianyun, and the others also gathered around, more as spectators than anything else.
Su Qianyun wore her usual blue dress, and she was like an exquisite Celestial Maiden who had descended from the moon as she looked at An Lin with wide, excited eyes. “Classmate An Lin, your skin is so great now! It’s glittering and translucent like jade.”
“I’m getting quite jealous, Master,” Ye Ling chimed in with a wide grin.
Xu Xiaolan also took this opportunity to make fun of him. “Now that your skin looks so good, you’re even more beautiful than I am.”
An Lin rolled his eyes. “None of you know my pain. I can barely even move my limbs right now, and I feel like I’m about to become a statue.”
He was already beginning to absorb Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao true intent.
As a result, he was becoming more and more like a jade person.
His fair skin became more and more translucent and flawless, giving him a rather surreal and dreamy quality.
Da Bai was very excited and pulled out a photographic crystal to take photos of An Lin from all angles.
“Hopefully the divine dao true intent of the most powerful being in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool can prove to be useful.” An Lin began to concentrate on absorbing the power left behind by Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong.
Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong was a living being who was infinitely close to God of Creation Stage.
Its forte was merging its divine dao into jade before unleashing its power.
A prime example of this was that terrifying spell technique it had unleashed to summon those ninety-nine Dao Integration Stage mythological beasts. Those mythological beasts were only temporarily resurrected using its dao jade as the foundation of their life forces.
Merging dao with jade was the core of Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao true intent.
Massive amounts of spell technique true intent surged into An Lin’s mind like a tsunami wave before fusing together with his body. The true intent was profound and ethereal, and it pointed directly to the essential Great Dao. This was the path that could lead one to the heavens!
An Lin’s eyes immediately lit up.
As expected of the most powerful being in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool, Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao had given An Lin a massively pleasant surprise, as if a clogged environment was suddenly unclogged, revealing a brand new world!
It was not just empty words for Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong to merge its dao into jade and create a new world from its jade! It could be said that Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong was most likely the living being closest to God of Creation Stage prior to its death!
“What a pity that you died by my hands before you progressed to the God of Creation Stage. And to think that you would be philanthropic enough to pass on your divine dao true intent comparable to that of God of Creation Stage onto me. I don’t even know how to repay you anymore…” An Lin couldn’t help but smile even as he was absorbing the divine dao true intent.
He felt like a massive pie had fallen from the heavens and landed right in front of him.
“My God, he really is becoming a jade person…” Su Qianyun’s mellow voice sounded.
“Is… is Big Brother An going to be alright? Woof!” Photographer Da Bai put down his photographic crystal and spoke with a tense expression.
An Lin wanted to look down at his body upon hearing this.
Crack crack crack…
His neck began to crack.
An Lin was given a massive fright and only now did he discover that his body was extremely hard.
Not only was it just his neck, but he was also unable to move any other parts of his body. It was as if everything had become paralyzed, and no part of his body would listen to his command.
He no longer possessed a body of blood and flesh. Instead, he now had a jade body!
An Lin had no alternative but to give up on trying to move his body and instead used his divine sense to survey his body.
He was then greeted by the sight of an extremely flawless and artistic body.
This was a jade body with not even the slightest hint of impurity. Even his hair had become infinite strands of white jade, which were perfect and flawless. His white robe remained stationary, but it gave onlookers a sense of motion. The faint jade sheen reflected by the light of the sun gave him the appearance of the most perfect artistic masterpiece ever created!
This…
An Lin was astonished.
How am I so beautiful!?
Everyone was astonished by this sight.
Xu Xiaolan wound an arm around An Lin’s waist and requested for a few photos from Da Bai.
Everyone was also tempted to do the same, and all of them took photos with An Lin as if he were some sort of tourist attraction. This was an extremely rare opportunity that they couldn’t afford to miss out on!
An Lin looked on at the excited Xu Xiaolan, who was organizing the photo-seekers into a single file line, and he didn’t even know what to say anymore.
Wasn’t she supposed to be protecting him?
He was feeling very depressed!
However, everyone soon settled down after a period of hype and commotion.
An Lin was also becoming more and more immersed in Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao true intent. Even though he had become a stationary jade person, that still did nothing to disrupt his urge to pursue dao.
He stood still for an entire seven days.
Xu Xiaolan constantly stayed by his side for those seven days.
All of the pavilion lords and elders of the Four Nine Immortal Sect also came to “visit” Sect Leader An Lin and took commemorative photos. As for the disciples who were prohibited from coming here, they still took selfies with Sect Leader An Lin from afar.
He was so extraordinarily beautiful, how could they not commemorate this?
When An Lin reopened his eyes, Xu Xiaolan also opened hers and sidled over to An Lin. “How do you feel?”
“I did it!” A smile appeared on An Lin’s face. “Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s divine dao true intent matches my power quite well, and I have already mastered it!”
Xu Xiaolan was also a little excited upon hearing this. “Show me!”
Tina, Da Bai, Su Qianyun, Xuanyuan Cheng, Dongfang Zhuangshi, and a whole host of spectators also turned toward An Lin with anticipation and curiosity intermingled with disappointment.
The reason for their disappointment was that the beautiful jade person An Lin was no longer here. An Lin’s skin had reverted back to its original state and was far less appealing to look at…
An Lin flipped over his hand, and a burst of peculiar energy surged for several dozen kilometers before converging toward his palm.
Crackle bang…
An explosive sound erupted, as if thunderclaps were exploding in his palm.
A burst of true intent that gave one the illusion that everything in this world originated from his palm erupted forth, striking an instinctive hint of fear into everyone’s heart.
In the next instant, a white ball appeared on An Lin’s palm.
It was round, smooth, pristine and holy; it was perfect to the extreme.
Everyone was fascinated upon seeing this.
Dongfang Zhuangshi was extremely astonished. “Is that Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong’s dao jade?!”
An Lin nodded with a smile. “That’s right.”
“But I feel like something’s missing.”
Xu Xiaolan stroked her chin, and her brows furrowed.
An Lin: “It lacks the power of the divine dao. Heavenly Venerate Yu Qiong merged its divine dao into the jade, which was why it could be referred to as a dao jade. I don’t possess a divine dao yet, so this jade is only an empty vessel.”
“Doesn’t that mean it’s not going to be as powerful then?” Dongfang Zhuangshi was a little disappointed.
“It’s ok, I have a way to make this work…” An Lin’s eyes were glowing with a scorching light. “Now then, it’s time to witness a miracle!”
