No hope for eternal life

Chapter 485: The Hope of the 9th Level of Body Refining

"Disciple will definitely live up to Master's expectations." Mu Changsheng said with a fist salute.

"Your journey will be difficult, and the mission and time are indefinite, so the mission reward will be given to you in advance." Xiao Niansheng handed Mu Changsheng a storage bag.

Mu Changsheng opened it and found that it was filled with top-grade spirit stones, numbering tens of millions!

Just as Mu Changsheng was about to refuse, Xiao Niansheng stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Don't say anything to refuse. I'm leaving your only clone who has reached the eighth realm. I should at least help your other clone achieve the eighth realm."

"Okay." Mu Changsheng did not refuse again. With these tens of millions of top-grade spirit stones, he only needs to wait for the black-clothed clone to complete his body refining and then he will be able to overcome the tribulation and break through. By then, he will have two clones in the realm of supernatural powers!

"You can stay here first and continue to try your innate magical power. Perhaps it still has some undeveloped abilities. When you reach the demon tribe, you can no longer use the Five Thunders secret technique. You should focus on your innate magical power." Xiao Niansheng reminded.

"Disciple understands." Mu Changsheng replied. The Five Thunders Secret Technique is a method of the Tianling Sect. The demon clan must be aware of it, so it naturally cannot be used easily.

After Xiao Niansheng left, Mu Changsheng began to study his own innate magical powers alone.

"Let's replenish the power consumed by the nine fires first." Mu Changsheng said to himself, and put the nine fireballs into the magma to be devoured. The other eight fireballs soon reached a full state, but only one had all its power exhausted when testing its power, so it took half an hour to replenish it.

Looking at the nine fireballs in full state, Mu Changsheng was a little dissatisfied: "Why can't they continue to devour the flames?"

Although Xiao Niansheng said that the attack power of the fireball is unmatched below the ninth realm, the attack power is something that should be as strong as possible. You know, although they are both in the eighth realm, You Wushuang can directly suppress the ninth realm cultivators. It's enviable just thinking about it. Mu Changsheng has always seriously suspected that the reason You Wushuang can be so powerful is probably related to his innate magical power.

However, the innate magical power is one of the most important secrets of every cultivator in the eighth and ninth realms. Mu Changsheng has no way of knowing what You Wushuang's innate magical power is, so he can only study his own innate magical power.

Mu Changsheng fiddled with the nine fireballs for a long time, experimenting continuously, but found that no matter what he did, he could not increase the power of the fireballs. Although the power of the nine fireballs was obtained by swallowing magma, the nine fireballs could not be integrated with each other, and their power could not be added up.

In the end, Mu Changsheng had to temporarily give up the idea of ​​increasing the power of the fireballs and took the nine fully charged fireballs back into his body.

"Huh." Mu Changsheng let out a light exclamation. He immediately discovered that different changes had occurred after the nine fireballs were taken back into his body. The nine fireballs were located at the nine major acupoints of the human body, such as the palms, soles of the feet, and centers of the eyebrows. After those fireballs that were full of energy were integrated into the body, they actually spontaneously emitted power and wandered around in Mu Changsheng's body. Since the powers of different fireballs could not be integrated, they would confront each other when they met in the body.

"Why is this?" Mu Changsheng was a little puzzled, but his body was strong, so he was naturally not afraid of this kind of confrontation. He allowed those forces to confront each other in his body. He really wanted to observe why the power of these fireballs could only confront each other and not merge.

After several days of observation, as time passed, the power stored in the nine fireballs was almost exhausted, and the intensity of the confrontation also decreased. However, Mu Changsheng opened his eyes wide with an expression of disbelief, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng plunged into the magma with a plop. Although the temperature of the magma was high, it could not do anything to his body with perfect Five Thunders. The power of the fireball was almost exhausted, and he entered the magma just to replenish the energy of the fireball.

With the replenishment of magma energy, the confrontation in Mu Changsheng's body was restored again. Mu Changsheng was immersed in the magma, and he was still observing the power confrontation between the nine fireballs in his body.

One day, two days, three days...

Mu Changsheng remained motionless until the fifth day, when he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, clenched his hands, and summoned nine fireballs. Mu Changsheng looked at the fireballs and sighed: "It turns out that my innate magical power is not only used for fighting, its real function is to refine the body!"

Mu Changsheng was still worried about the next step in body refining, but the appearance of his innate magical power directly pointed out a clear path for him.

The reason why the power of the nine fireballs was fighting against each other in Mu Changsheng's body was because it was part of his innate magical power. As those forces fought against each other, Mu Changsheng's body, which had already been perfectly tempered with the Five Thunders, was actually slowly strengthened. Although this process was very slow, Mu Changsheng, as the master of the body, could clearly feel the strengthening of the body. With a body of his level, it would be extremely difficult to strengthen it a little bit. But now, Mu Changsheng didn't have to do anything. He just had to lie in the magma and absorb the magma energy to steadily improve his body. This was even more incredible than pie falling from the sky.

In addition, Mu Changsheng finally understood why the power of the fireball could not be increased. Before, Mu Changsheng thought that it was limited by his own cultivation level, but in fact it was limited by his body refining realm. At present, the power of the fireball was resisting in Mu Changsheng's body. If the power exceeded the eighth realm and reached the ninth realm, Mu Changsheng's body refining realm of the eighth realm would not be able to withstand it. Only now is it just within the range that Mu Changsheng can bear. One more point will hurt his body, and one less point will not have the effect of tempering the body.

The reason why Mu Changsheng discovered this is because he found that as his physical body slowly strengthened, the upper limit of the fireball's power was also slowly increasing. It is precisely because the power of the fireball continued to increase with the strength of the physical body that the confrontation of the fireball's power can continue to have the effect of tempering the physical body. The two complement each other. Mu Changsheng even suspected that as long as there was enough time and energy, the physical body and the power of the fireball could continue to grow indefinitely like this.

However, just like the limitations of heaven that Xiao Niansheng had mentioned, Mu Changsheng did not get all the benefits. Mu Changsheng found that the only disadvantage of this body refining method was that it was slow, too slow.

If the eighth level of body refining is compared to a lake and the ninth level of body refining is compared to an ocean, then Mu Changsheng's current body refining speed is like constantly adding water to a lake with a ladle. Although the "water" representing the body refining realm has indeed increased, it will take too long to turn it into an ocean. Not to mention that Mu Changsheng has less than a hundred years to live. At this speed of body refining, he may not be able to reach the ninth level of body refining even in a thousand or ten thousand years.

"I must find a way to speed up the body refining process." Mu Changsheng said to himself, feeling quite excited. He couldn't even find the door to the ninth level of body refining before, but now he at least has a clear path.

In the following few days, Mu Changsheng continued to absorb the power of the magma to refine his body while lying in the magma, observing the changes in his physical body and the magical fireball, and thinking about ways to speed up the refining of his body.

One day, Mu Changsheng suddenly had an epiphany, and he dived deep into the underground magma.
