Chapter 717: Chapter 213: Body Becomes a Mountain, Myriad Beasts Transformation, Refining Immortal Appearance, Assassination Attempt

And this minor realm’s cultivation method is to "manipulate Yin and Yang," making the originally rigid body begin to flow. In the process of flowing, it’s not just the flow of flesh and blood, but also the flow of Yin Qi and Divine Soul.

In other words, in this process, one must reshape the Divine Soul through the adjustment of flesh and Yin Qi to form something called "Immortal Appearance."

Therefore, although Li Yuan can easily change from the shape of a mountain into a person, it is only a transformation of flesh, not a reshaping of the Divine Soul.

He can transform in a thousand ways, yet his Divine Soul remains in its original form.

However, to break through to the second minor realm of the Celestial Soul, one must condense this "Immortal Appearance."

This reminded Li Yuan of the things like "Dharma Form" that he saw before his transmigration.

Clearly, the body stands there, but a tall and glittering form suddenly appears behind.

By then, even after several reincarnations, this "Dharma Form" remains, thus giving rise to legends of Immortal reincarnation.

And only those who have cultivated to this level can truly transcend the Underworld to some extent.

However, Li Yuan estimated that the "Immortal Appearance" is probably not that formidable, just a beginning... after all, there are still minor realms like "Earth Immortal," "Water Immortal," and "Wind Immortal" later on.

He always placed great importance on cultivation.

As long as he can cultivate, he can become an "otaku."

As Xiaozhao slowly described, Li Yuan was already eager to return and cultivate.

After all, according to Xiaozhao’s description, to break through the "Thousand Transformations Blood and Flesh Gate," one needs strong Yang Qi and precise Yin Qi circulation to succeed.

This thing is like what Li Yuan heard before his transmigration: "Martial arts masters operate True Qi in circulation."

Only here, "True Qi’s operation within the body" turns into "Yin Qi’s operation within Yang Qi."

How to operate, how to breathe, how to utilize resources are all extremely important.

Li Yuan listened intently.

On the other side, while patrolling, he displayed just the right amount of daze, perfectly fitting the Emperor’s state of serious illness.

The Imperial Capital teemed with people.

The area previously destroyed by the Lotus Thieves was being rebuilt.

Dark guards were secretly observing everywhere, capturing anyone appearing malicious.

The newly established three thousand Imperial City Guards would block anyone attempting to approach the Emperor’s Tower Vehicle.

Soon...

The vehicle stopped in front of a delicate mountain.

The mountain was about two or three hundred meters high, resplendent with colors, blooming with flowers and trees, and an ancient temple-like palace stood at the top.

The mountain path meandered steeply upwards.

Xie Wei supported Li Yuan out of the vehicle, saying, "Your Majesty, let’s take a walk on Yu Lin Mountain."

Li Yuan looked at the mountain before him, snapping back to reality.

He instinctively surveyed the mountain.

"What’s wrong, Your Majesty?"

Li Yuan said, "Nothing, just seems small."

Xie Wei laughed and said, "Yu Lin Mountain is considered large in the Imperial Capital. To climb mountains over a thousand meters, one would have to go to famous mountains and great rivers."

Li Yuan scratched his head.

He could turn into a mountain over a thousand meters high at any time now.

Glancing at Xie Wei, he said, "Not necessarily."

The two continued talking as they ascended the steps.

Xie Wei laughed and said, "Not necessarily? In the Imperial Capital, Yu Lin is the most beautiful and Golden Summit the tallest; but even the tallest is just over five hundred meters.

If Your Majesty wants to climb higher mountains, we can go to Golden Summit next time.

But mountains over a thousand meters still aren’t available."

Li Yuan chuckled...

That evening, the two did not descend the mountain since the Emperor’s body was weak and couldn’t endure the travel back and forth.

The two spent the night in the palace on the mountain top.

At midnight, Xie Wei climbed onto Li Yuan’s body...

After an intense moment, Li Yuan hugged the Empress and said, "Maybe the Empress has climbed a high mountain?"

The Empress recalled the conversation during the day, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh, then rolled her eyes flirtatiously, saying playfully, "Shameless, aren’t you?"

Li Yuan reminded, "During the day, the Empress mentioned we couldn’t..."

Xie Wei’s face blushed; she’d forgotten those words amidst her thoughts.

At this moment, she took a deep breath and argued, "I meant after my brother-in-law and sister have their children."

The two embraced and fell asleep.

The next day, a gentle rain fell like fine threads.

The Emperor and Empress returned to the Imperial Palace again.

And after such a "show," the rumors of "Demon Queen poisoning the Emperor" were self-defeating.

Li Yuan continued residing deep within Qingxin Hall, consolidating his realm and attempting to cultivate his cultivation skills in hopes of a breakthrough.

For others, cultivating the Celestial Soul Technique requires at least the vicinity of the Third Grade Meat Field.

But Li Yuan doesn’t need that.

He only needs a quiet cultivation land.

However, speaking of it, Qingxin Hall is actually right beside the Third Grade Meat Field...

...

Midnight.

The young man took off his clothes, folded them neatly, and placed them in the secret chamber.

Then, he sat cross-legged.

The flesh around him began to bulge and retract unexpectedly. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Soon, his arm turned into a sharp rock, and in another moment, his back became a giant rock over several feet high, nearly bursting the secret chamber.

His form changed in a thousand ways, an adaptation process.

He must achieve "control at will" with his body.

...

...

Days passed by.

In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed.

On this day, Li Yuan in the secret chamber exhaled a long breath.

Without any warning, he suddenly transformed into a giant rock that perfectly filled the secret chamber.
