234: Chapter 233: Two Trillion Yuan Spent! Physical Body Achieved Sainthood, Second Transformation of the Eternal Golden Body!

The Ancient Asura Palace, this ominous place that had stood deep within the Nether Blood Sea for countless ages, was now enveloped in an eerie silence.

In the center of the great hall, the ground was a mess. The once majestic Asura statue had long since been reduced to dust in the previous battle, and the ground was crisscrossed with bottomless ravines. Dark red blood had pooled into small puddles, emitting a pungent smell of blood and sulfur.

That thousand-zhang-long Ancient Demonic Dragon, possessing the strength of a Half-step Grand Unity Golden Immortal, was now a cold corpse, coiled around the hall like a black Great Wall. Even in death, its suffocating Dragon's might still caused the surrounding space to subtly warp.

Lin Feng sat cross-legged on the dragon's head, still bearing the bloodstains from slaying Immortal Lord Yuheng. Yet, his expression showed no fatigue; instead, he was exhilarated, even verging on — madness.

He stared intently at the translucent blue panel on his retina, his breathing as rapid as a Mortal who had just finished a marathon.

[Current critical hit points balance: 26,050 billion!]

Two hundred sixty trillion, five hundred billion!

What kind of concept was this?

If this fortune were exchanged for Low Grade Immortal Crystals, it would be enough to fill half of the East Sea! If exchanged for Medicinal Pills, it could feed a pig until it became a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal!

"I'm rich... completely rich..."

Lin Feng felt his grin stretch to his ears, impossible to suppress. Earlier, to slay Yuheng, he had not only used all his trump cards but also overdrawn his body's potential. Although he looked mighty now, he was actually strong on the outside but weak on the inside; his Meridians were like dry riverbeds, desperately in need of nourishment.

"Fugui!" Lin Feng suddenly roared.

"Squeak!"

Huang Fugui, who was currently lying next to the heart of asura, frantically licking the faintly pulsating heart, was startled. His two long ears instantly stood up like antennae. "Master! What's wrong? Is it an enemy attack, or have we found more money?"

Lin Feng glanced at the greedy ferret and said irritably, "Don't just hog it. The heart of asura has too much Evil Qi. If you swallow it now, you might explode. Go guard the entrance for me and set up all our defensive Formation Plates! Master is going into seclusion!"

"Seclusion?" Huang Fugui's eyes darted around, and seeing Lin Feng's fervent gaze, he immediately understood. "Alright, Master! You're about to take off! Go for it, don't worry. With me here, forget mosquitoes, not even microorganisms from the Blood Sea will get in!"

With that, Huang Fugui reluctantly put down the heart of asura, transformed into a golden streak, and shot to the hall's entrance, sticking out his butt and frantically pulling out Formation Flags and Formation Plates.

After confirming their safety, Lin Feng took a deep breath, the fanaticism in his eyes gradually turning into determination.

"System, bring up the Eternal Undying Sutra interface!"

[Ding! Panel expanded.]

[Cultivation Technique: Eternal Undying Sutra, Volume 1: Golden Body Chapter (Major Achievement)]

[Current Physical Body strength: Peak Grade Golden Immortal Artifact level]

[Next Stage: Golden Body Perfection (Corresponds to Golden Immortal Middle Stage to Late Stage, Physical Body comparable to Low Grade Acquired Spirit Treasure)]

[Advancement Requirement: Requires consumption of a large amount of Origin energy to reforge the Physical Body. Estimated critical hit points consumption: 5,000 billion!]

"Five trillion..."

Looking at this astronomical figure that once filled him with awe, Lin Feng now merely sneered.

"Only five trillion? Who are you looking down on!"

If it were before, he might have hesitated, might have felt pain. But now, facing the threats from those high and mighty Immortal Kings, and even Immortal Emperors, in the Nine Heavens Palace, Lin Feng understood a truth: money, only when spent and converted into strength, truly belongs to oneself!

"Not only do I want to advance my Realm, I also want to reforge this Mortal body!"

Lin Feng suddenly stood up, his gaze sweeping over the enormous Demonic Dragon corpse and the mountains of Asura Divine Gold and various peak-grade Ores piled deep within the hall.

"System! I want to activate the 'Myriad Dao Furnace' function!"

"Burn all five trillion of these critical hit points for me!"

"With this Half-step Grand Unity Demonic Dragon as a sacrifice, with billions of Asura Divine Gold as the framework, and infused with the pure Dao Origin transformed from critical hit points, reforge for me — the Undying Golden Body!"

[Ding! Host command confirmed!]

[Deducting 5,000 billion critical hit points!]

[Myriad Dao Furnace, activated!]

Boom—!!!!

In an instant, a supernova seemed to detonate in Lin Feng's Dantian.

An indescribably terrifying hot current instantly swept through his entire body. It was not ordinary flame; it was the 'Dao Fire,' a manifestation of the Dao's rules!

"Ahhhhh—!!!"

Even with Lin Feng's iron-like will, he couldn't help but let out a mournful roar.

It was too painful!

This pain was not merely physical suffering, but a tearing sensation from the genetic level, from the depths of his Soul. It was as if billions of ants were gnawing at his bone marrow, and a massive hammer was smashing every inch of his bones into powder, then pouring molten iron over them!

As the Dao Fire burned, a giant golden vortex appeared in the Void Realm behind Lin Feng, like a gaping maw devouring the heavens.

"Melt for me!"

Lin Feng gritted his teeth, his mouth full of blood, forcibly controlling the golden vortex.

Whoosh!

The thousand-zhang-long Demonic Dragon corpse, under the pull of the vortex, began to decompose at a visible rate. Its incredibly hard dragon scales turned into black streaks of light, its dragon bones, containing terrifying power, transformed into white vital Qi, and its Evil Qi-filled dragon blood became a red torrent...

All the essence was forcibly poured into Lin Feng's seemingly small human body.

"Crack! Crack!"

Lin Feng's body began to emit crisp sounds like popping beans. His skin cracked inch by inch, then peeled off, revealing new skin underneath.

This newborn skin was no longer pale but exhibited a textured dark gold, as if forged from the purest gold, with ancient and mysterious Dragon-shaped patterns faintly emerging on its surface.

At the same time, the divine gold Ores within the Asura Great Hall also flew up, melting into golden liquid and seeping into Lin Feng's bones.

Time passed minute by minute.

This inhuman torment continued for a full three hours.

Finally.

When the last wisp of Demonic Dragon essence was completely absorbed, when the last bit of critical hit points energy was exhausted.

"Boom!!"

An Aura that changed the color of heaven and earth erupted from Lin Feng!

The Golden Immortal Early Stage Bottleneck, in the face of this torrent, was like a sheet of window paper, unable to even resist for a second, directly shattered to pieces!

The Ancient Asura Palace shook violently, its ceiling directly ripped off by the wave of Qi, revealing the dim Blood Sea sky outside.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! Physical Body reforged successfully!]

[Eternal Undying Sutra Golden Body Chapter Perfection! Promoted to Golden Immortal Middle Stage!]

[Physical Body characteristics gained: [Dragon Strength] (Strength increased tenfold), [Asura Barrier] (Physical defense increased tenfold), [Immune to All Poisons]!]

[Current Physical Body evaluation: Human-shaped Peak Grade Defensive Immortal Artifact! Can withstand a blow from an ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortal without dying!]

Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes.

At that instant, two searchlights seemed to illuminate the hall. His eyes turned a brilliant gold, and in the depths of his pupils, a giant Dragon seemed to roar.

He slowly raised his hand and clenched his fist.

"Buzz—"

Just the action of clenching his fist instantly crushed the air in his palm, emitting a sonic boom.

"Is this... the power of the Golden Body Second Revolution?"

Lin Feng felt the terrifying power surging like a great river within him, and a cruel arc formed at the corner of his mouth.

"Awesome!"

"Now, even without using Sword Techniques, with just this Physical Body, I could pound someone like Immortal Lord Yuheng into a meat patty!"

But he knew this wasn't enough.

Defense and strength alone weren't enough; his original weapon, the Life-Slaying Blade, had shattered during the fight against Yuheng.

As a blade user, being without a blade was like a tiger without its teeth.

Lin Feng's gaze fell upon the thickest Demonic Dragon spine bone remaining on the ground. It was the condensed essence of the Demonic Dragon's entire body, still pure white as jade and emitting a chilling glint, even after being subjected to intense fire.

"System, another two trillion!"

Lin Feng waved his hand, full of heroic spirit.

"Using this Half-step Grand Unity Demonic Dragon spine bone as the main material, supplemented by the remaining Asura Divine Gold, and fusing it with my Slaughter Sword Intent..."

"I want to forge a peerless, wild blade that can cut through these Nine Heavens!"

"All things as material, the System as the furnace! Forge it for me!!"
