Chapter 144: Chapter 143: Icy Skin and Bones
Underwater, fish mingled with water as two strong characters clashed, one a near-S-level nuclear bomb of worldly strength.
The other, once the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor who dominated the Nine Heavens in the Immortal Realm, was still an absolute zenith of power, even now in the city where the Spiritual Energy had withered away, the true Age of the End of Dharma.
Underwater, the two had no difference than on land, even speaking was as common as anything, with True Qi inside their bodies enabling them to do many things.
Zang Hua, a near-S-level fighter, felt a powerful and unimaginable True Qi within her, no, to be precise, it was stronger and purer than True Qi.
This energy flowed slowly through her body, silently transforming her blood, bones, and even her cells.
In short, at this moment, Zang Hua was silently transforming, a transformation as overwhelming as a flood, a complete transformation.
Ye Ling, at this very moment, felt a familiar and yet strange intent of the Heavenly Dao, stirring great excitement within him, because as a former Immortal Emperor, he had never been clearer of the favor he was receiving at this moment.
Everything stemmed from the union of the two, with Ye Ling automatically activating a Divine Skill of Buddhism, the Joyful Power.
The Joyful Power was a mysterious Divine Skill created by the Joyful Buddha in Buddhism, a skill that could be practiced by a man and a woman during their union.
Emphasizing the fusion of Yin and Yang, and the integration of the Five Elements, it was a technique Ye Ling had swindled from the Joyful Buddha during his time in the Immortal Realm.
What was more surprising was that Zang Hua had a special body constitution, Ice Muscle Bone Physique!
This constitution was no weaker than the Pure Yin Body and extraordinarily suited for practicing water-related Divine Skills, doubling the effectiveness and increasing the speed of cultivation. Even in the former Immortal Realm, Ice Muscle Bone Physique was one of the rare physiques.
A S-level hitman possessing a rare physique of the Immortal Realm—if the big shots of the Immortal Realm knew of this, they would likely break through the barrier between Earth and the Immortal Realm and kill their way over to vie for this rarity.
Ye Ling smacked his lips, realizing he had stumbled upon a treasure, absolutely shocking, and even calling it damn good luck was no exaggeration.
But in the next instant, Ye Ling's eyes bulged out as he felt that Zang Hua had broken through to the Early Stage of the Houtian Realm!
Heavens, at this speed, if the cultivators on Earth knew about it, their jaws would surely drop. Since when had Houtian strong characters become so easy to come by?
However, in the next moment, Ye Ling was completely dumbfounded, his head buzzing with noise.
Just because, damn it, Zang Hua was breaking through like crazy, and in the blink of an eye, she had reached the pinnacle of the Houtian Realm!
Shit!
I'm the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor and have absorbed the Six-colored Imperial Jade, and I'm still not as good as a girl?
Damn it, is this for real?
Ye Ling's heart was cold, wishing for a heartwarming treasure to intensely warm his chilled heart.
Without further ado, Ye Ling also broke through, Late Stage Houtian, pinnacle of Houtian Realm, furiously chasing and overtaking, finally breaking through and catching up to Zang Hua, salvaging some of Ye Ling's dignity.
A surge of Spiritual Energy burst into Zang Hua's body, merging with the Pure Yin origin within her.
At that moment, Zang Hua's body slowly lifted off the ground. Thankfully, she did not float out of the lake but stood erect in the midst of it, eyes slightly closed.
A pure Heavenly and Earthly origin slowly undulated within her, overflowing and revealing that she had completely transformed, into a butterfly, entirely different from before.
"Shit! Are you playing with me?" When Ye Ling saw Zang Hua, who had left his side, he couldn't help but curse.
Innate, Innate Realm, was Zang Hua, who was not even at the Houtian Realm, sent to the Innate Realm this time?
Isn't this bullshit!
In the Innate Realm, there are no Early, Middle, or Late Stages, it is an entirely independent realm. The next breakthrough would be the Foundation Establishment Stage, stepping into the realm of a true cultivator.
What the hell, isn't this bullying me?
Ye Ling frowned, suddenly feeling the Pure Yin power within him, also quietly spreading out through his body.
The Pure Yin power of the Ice Muscle Bone Physique, moreover, the tremendous effects of the first-ever Pure Yin power?
Ye Ling only knew, what he obtained was much more than Zang Hua, the benefits were indescribable.
This was akin to adding the properties of Ice Muscle Bone to his already powerful Nine Nether Emperor Technique's Spiritual Power; the Spiritual Power shot out, not only strong as the heavens but also as chilling as ice, freezing enemies.
Boom!
An earth-shattering aura bellowed out from Yangtze Lake, the usually chilly waters churning as if boiling with bubbles violently emerging.
"Stay away and wait for me, don't come near!"
Ye Ling bellowed, pushing with one hand, sending Zang Hua, along with all her clothes and undergarments, soaring out of Yangtze Lake.
Her stark naked body was thus thrust forth by Ye Ling; thankfully, it was almost dawn now, otherwise, Zang Hua would have put on quite the risqué, palace drama for countless onlookers.
Zang Hua, blasted away, wanted to curse at Ye Ling, but in the next moment, her eyes filled with sheer horror and shock, her mouth agape, yet no words came out.
In the dark sky above, a thick bolt of lightning, like a mighty dragon, ripped through the firmament, roaring towards Yangtze Lake!
A single bolt lit up the entire starry sky, the dark heavens turning as bright as the peak of day!
But when the lightning struck Yangtze Lake, the roiling waters suddenly came to a halt, deathly still, without a ripple.
Boom!
A figure shot up into the sky, it was Ye Ling, his clothes in disarray, obviously hastily put on.
Yet Ye Ling, standing in mid-air, seemed like a Heavenly Divine, his aura ferocious, as if even the heavens were intimidated by him!
