Chapter 105: Nine Bone Spiritual Body
As the Wind Tree moved its branches to block the strange light, an ethereal aurora flashed by.
The branches shattered, and the trunk turned to ash, with the entire upper half of the Wind Tree obliterated by the explosion.
The streams of spirit light that had gathered from the ground due to the crisis also ceased, dissipating into the air.
“Spiritual Roots revival!”
“Three Mystical True Fire mode!”
Yun Ye entered his strongest state, vanishing from his spot and rushing toward the Nine Bone Spirit Grass beneath the half-destroyed trunk.
The Wind Tree, being a tree and not a human, was not completely dead yet even after losing half its body; it still tried to summon the spirit energy of heaven and earth to counterattack.
However, the wisps of Cracking Wind gathered and then scattered, unable to form the impressive scale they had before.
Yun Ye’s strike caused a fatal wound, leaving the Wind Tree without any power to resist.
In an instant, Yun Ye snatched the Nine Bone Spirit Grass.
Unlike the other spiritual herbs that he carelessly tossed into the space box, Yun Ye stored this one in a jade box, sealing it with talismans to prevent its potency from weakening.
After doing all this, Yun Ye unleashed the Immortal Flame upon the Wind Tree, incinerating it.
The Wind Tree could not muster any resistance and turned to ash.
However, in its final moments of strength, it protected three gleaming seeds that looked extraordinary.
Seeing this, Yun Ye felt a stir of emotion; even a tree fought desperately for survival.
Unfortunately, this world was not a story where everyone could get along.
Yun Ye collected the seeds and turned to leave.
…
In the hollowed-out cave, Yun Ye took out the Nine Bone Spirit Grass.
This was a spiritual herb that radiated astonishing brilliance, lighting up the dark cave, with nine branches and nine leaves resembling coral.
This herb indeed possessed a spirit that completely surpassed High-level Spiritual Herbs, and most importantly, its spirituality was unique; it could directly transform the body, granting it a physique known as the Nine Bone Spiritual Body.
This spiritual body had nine times the vitality of an ordinary person and various extraordinary attributes, making it extremely powerful within Baishi Town.
The so-called nine times vitality did not refer to an ordinary person but was instead a comparison within the same level.
After all, compared to an ordinary person, Yun Ye’s current Qi Cultivation Technique realm represented a vitality more than fifty times that of an ordinary person.
In fact, the vitality of the Nine Bone Spiritual Body meant that both the intensity of cultivation and life essence were nine times that of normal conditions.
Whether in cultivation or using Spiritual Law, the advantages were obvious.
Generally, spiritual bodies cultivated after birth would only have three times the vitality, while obtaining six or nine times would require either abundant talent and resources or exceptionally strong techniques.
A single herb that could grant a ninefold spiritual body was no wonder Tong Yuan spent thirty years trying to acquire it.
Yun Ye did not conduct any further research, directly igniting the Immortal Flame to burn away the impurities of the spiritual herb, leaving behind a glowing liquid.
He combined it with several mild spiritual herbs to create a simple elixir, then consumed it in one gulp.
The powerful silver spiritual essence immediately enveloped Yun Ye, transforming his body from the inside out, causing his blood, bones, and cells to crack and reconstruct, almost making it seem like a skeleton was emerging from his body.
The degree of body reconstruction was so intense that it was like having an entirely new body.
Yun Ye found it hard to imagine that a single spiritual herb could have such an effect.
In the end, Yun Ye’s body transformation was complete, and he gained what the members called the Nine Bone Spiritual Body.
When the spiritual body first emerged, Yun Ye’s physique was incredibly perfect, like an artwork sculpted with precision. It had flawless proportions and radiated a faint glow, with even his hair seeming to float in a mysterious manner, exuding an ethereal vibe.
However, as the spirituality stirred and stabilized, Yun Ye returned to normal. Yet, when he clenched his fist, he could feel an explosive level of power within him. The spiritual body indeed had a world of difference compared to an ordinary body.
“Physical talent upgraded: D+ → A+.”
The Nine Bone Spiritual Body allowed Yun Ye’s physical talent to leap directly from the bottom levels to a point surpassing even Yun Wen.
This was exactly the result Tong Yuan had hoped for—only with the Nine Bone Spiritual Body could one aspire to reach even greater heights.
To become a judge-level figure in Baishi Town—only judges held high positions throughout the town!
Tong Yuan could hardly have imagined that the seed planted eighteen years ago would come to fruition now.
It allowed an ant to rise, not only killing him but also snatching the fated life-altering spiritual herb that should have been his!
Yun Ye rose to his feet, feeling the explosive force within him that demanded to be unleashed.
“Ahhh!”
In an instant, accompanied by the release of spiritual energy, the entire cave shook violently, with cracks spreading everywhere.
Undoubtedly, Yun Ye’s strength had reached a new height.
Although he had not stepped onto the Heavenly Path or entered the spiritual realm, his power was definitely that of a significant figure in Baishi Town.
Just the power of his flesh was enough to shake the stones, indicating that Yun Ye was no longer just an ordinary person.
Now, even his voice contained spiritual power, a gift from his spiritual body.
It was at this level that Yun Ye understood why Yun Wen could easily control him with his voice, while he could eliminate chaos but still couldn’t control an ordinary practitioner of Black Armored Spiritual Law with a single word.
The difference lay in having a spiritual body.
He was a mortal, while Yun Wen was a practitioner in the spiritual realm, truly extraordinary and enhanced in his abilities with the laws.
Even if Yun Wen was not proficient in Spirit Law, he could still suppress lower-level practitioners.
“Now, let me see the Essence!”
Yun Ye stepped out of the cave, walking into the sunlight. As the air warped from the heat, crimson, ethereal ribbons rose from all directions, forming a large formation that enclosed a radius of one hundred meters around Yun Ye.
At first, these ribbons maintained their form, but as they rose higher, they gradually transformed into a layer of faint fire silk.
With a wave of his hand, Yun Ye suddenly drew the spirit energy of heaven and earth, forming a fire lotus.
As the fire lotus landed—
Boom!
Everything within a fifty-meter radius turned into magma.
This was the complete form of the Essence of Fire: Chaos, which not only disabled magical powers but also explosively increased the power of all Spiritual Laws.
In a word, powerful!
Invincibly strong!
After Yun Ye had a rough understanding of the power of Spiritual Law, he stopped using the Essence and shifted his focus to his sensing abilities.
If his Spirit Sense radius was one hundred meters under normal conditions, then in the Essence state, it would be around one thousand meters.
This one thousand meters was based on a vague perception of the world; it didn’t provide a clear Spirit Sense, but it was sufficient.
The entire Secret Realm actually wasn’t very large.
Night fell.
Shi Baiyan, Tong Kun, and Tong Huo Yang stopped their hunting and entered the Stone Tablet shelter to rest.
They sat by the campfire, roasting fish, their expressions dim, and none of them had the desire to speak.
A team had lost eight members!
Although Ten Across Mountains was extremely dangerous, such significant casualties were rare for the Black Armored Army.
Moreover, the captain of the team had even died.
Tong Yuan.
The current head of the Tong family.
Tong Huo Yang shivered, as she seemed to already envision what her fate would be upon returning to her clan.
In this scene, someone would surely say: "The master is dead; why should a servant like you still live?"
“…Did you guys hear any sounds?”
Tong Kun suddenly said, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword.
“Sound?”
Shi Baiyan and Tong Huo Yang listened in confusion but did not hear anything.
“Swipe.”
“There is a sound!”
Tong Kun suddenly stood up, activating his Spirit Law. Unlike the other two, he heard a warning coming from his soul.
“Thump, thump, thump, thump…”
Footsteps approached.
The dry leaves were swept up by the wind, brushing through the air.
Tong Kun fixed his gaze on the dry leaves, watching their flight path.
“Whoa!”
The leaves suddenly caught fire, turning to ashes.
“Enemy attack!”
The moment Tong Kun witnessed this phenomenon, he yelled loudly, swiftly drawing his sword and jumping back, as the mark of his Spiritual Roots spread across his forehead.
