"Immortal Blood Physique"

"Source: Ice Blood Physique, Intermediate Demon Blood Physique"

"Transcendent Emotionlessness: When you see a mountain, you are outside of the mountain; when you see a river, you are outside of the river. If you can observe your pain, you will begin to liberate yourself from it. Immortal blood will transform into a real nerve, allowing your body to move itself regardless of any negative states (poisoning, severe injury, dismemberment, paralysis, intense sorrow or joy, etc.), unaffected by any negative states, keeping your rationality unaffected by emotions."

"Ascension to Immortality: All beings are humble and fragile, unworthy of this eternal world. Immortal blood lifts bloodline limitations, allowing you to enhance your physical attributes and spiritual limits through cultivation, blood drinking, epiphanies, awakenings, battles, and other means."

"Illuminating the Spiritual Altar: Illuminate the self, see all beings. Immortal blood transforms spiritual power into awakened divine abilities, awakening through deep sorrow, great joy, and profound realization. Before awakening, spiritual power will be extended and expanded, allowing you to bend reality with it."

"Slaughter (Wu Zhiyi's exclusive divine ability): Wu Zhiyi excels in slaughtering weak prey. Against enemies weaker than oneself, any move made will undoubtedly achieve a hundred percent transposition."

"This ability can be further enhanced through Ascension to Immortality."

"This ability cannot be upgraded with available points."

Finally, an ability that cannot be upgraded with available points has appeared, but Le Yu can understand—Immortal Blood Physique is already so powerful, if it could be further upgraded, Le Yu fears he might truly become a living true immortal.

Even without upgrades, Immortal Blood Physique has opened Le Yu's eyes. 'Transcendent Emotionlessness' doesn't have much to say; it's just a perfect version of the Ice Blood Physique. According to the description, even if Le Yu's tendons in his hands and feet are severed, as long as immortal blood flows, he can ignore the structure of human anatomy and continue to move his body freely. Leading charges might become a reality for him after all.

The term 'Transcendent Emotionlessness' makes Le Yu a bit nervous, causing him to recall his past nightlife with Qing Lan. He soon has a reaction below, immediately making him breathe a sigh of relief—it seems this ability won't deprive him of his vulgar enjoyments.

However, nearby, Shi Pantuo senses something. He looks at Le Yu's crotch, then at the red-haired Snow White 'Qin Le Yin' being treated by Le Yu, showing a strange yet understanding expression—alas, the old sorcerer has left the tribe for over a decade, and now he's reduced to feeling something even for this hairless monkey. It's too tragic.

Le Yu naturally doesn't care about this temporary teammate's thoughts; anyway, Wu Zhiyi's persona will soon be discarded and can't even be considered as unit number five, merely a trial machine for Le Yu's amusement.

As for 'Ascension to Immortality' and 'Illuminating the Spiritual Altar', they naturally stem from Wu Zhiyi's "Intermediate Demon Blood Physique". According to Wu Zhiyi's shallow memories, the demon blood physique was not something he was born with, but awakened gradually by drinking demon blood.

Yes, the so-called demon blood is precisely the immortal blood talked about by Smile!

In fact, after the Blood Essence Stone incident, Le Yu and the others had a bewildering question: although the Immortal Palace plan was enticing, how could it be that not a single rumor had leaked? Whether it was Cha Huan, the Statistical Department, or the Radiant Four Guards, none of them had any information on the Immortal Palace plan. However, Smile had clearly consumed significant amounts of immortal blood. Where exactly did he gather his primordial spirit?

After obtaining Wu Zhiyi's mission log, this mystery was solved—no wonder the Statistical Department had no information on the Immortal Palace plan, because the Blood Essence Stone didn't collect primordial spirit in Radiant before!

The Blood Essence Stone used to be a tributor's sacrificial vessel among barbaric tribes. All demon races needed to offer primordial spirit to the Blood Essence Stone, with dying demons even exhausting themselves to offer blood essence! Smile, Wu Zhiyi, Shi Pantuo, and other demon races had consumed a lot of purified 'demon blood' from the Blood Essence Stone, thus enhancing their own demon blood quality!

'Ascension to Immortality' and 'Illuminating the Spiritual Altar' are the results of extensive demon blood consumption.

'Ascension to Immortality' needs no elaboration. Although Wu Zhiyi's cultivation speed became extremely slow after reaching the Peak of Perfection realm, most martial pillars are completely stalled upon reaching this realm. Their efforts are limited by talent, unable to surpass the limits of mortal clay forms. It's said their cap was predetermined from the moment of birth.

Upon reaching the Peak of Perfection, effort becomes an insignificant factor, with all martial pillars practicing for decades on end. Despite Cha Huan teaching parrots to lie, he spends his days practicing in the Platinum Tower. However, practice does not make them stronger but only prevents them from weakening—or at least slows their weakening. Natural decay is the law of the universe.

In contrast, the ability of 'Ascension to Immortality', which allows one to break through limits and grow stronger simply by practicing, would cause the martial pillars to retreat from society to practice in isolation, if granted to them.

However, despite its power, 'Ascension to Immortality' is unrelated to Le Yu—he is not an obsessed fanatic.

For him, it's like growing stronger through sit-ups, yet after lying down, Le Yu won't get up, just pulls over a blanket for a nap—he's too lazy to even do sit-ups.

On the other hand, 'Illuminating the Spiritual Altar' is more appealing to him. 'Illuminating the Spiritual Altar' is actually the transformation of Li Ying after consuming immortal blood, enabling spiritual power to twist reality.

However, this trick is impractical for combat. Martial artists are extremely sensitive to spiritual power; when Le Yu sparred with Li Ying, although he couldn't see her attacks, his body reacted as if trained, unable to be struck. Wu Zhiyi didn't use his spiritual power to twist during combat with Le Yu for the same reason—it's almost useless in battle, but useful for remotely switching off lights at night while lying in bed.

But the divine abilities awakened by 'Illuminating the Spiritual Altar' are the main point; everyone's awakened divine abilities are different. Wu Zhiyi's 'Slaughter' divine ability is evidently related to his experiences—killing the weak with absolute superiority.

Only after switching to a max-level account did Le Yu realize that although people say Land Immortals can steal the heavens and switch the sun, there are actually tiers, which is something the common folks are unaware of.

To steal the stars from the sky means being able to control all the light under the starlit night, usually at the level of the Peak of Perfection, known as the Star Position.

To cover the sky and conceal the moon means being able to control all the light under the moonlight, a power only a top-tier Martial Pillar possesses, known as the Moon Position.

To steal the sky and switch the sun means being able to control all the light under the midday sun, known as the Day Position. It's said to be an ideal state, and in history, only the emperor wielding the Holy Sword's brilliance has achieved it.

This shows just how terrifying Wu Zhiqi's 'Slaughter' divine power truly is.

Battles between Martial Pillars do not result in one-sided outcomes. Even if there's a strength disparity, the control over light is at most sixty-forty, seventy-thirty, or eighty-twenty. There is no possibility for a powerful Martial Pillar to silence and kill a weaker one instantly.

But Wu Zhiqi, with the 'Slaughter' divine power, can control all light with just a slight advantage over his enemy, leaving none for them, easily as though slaughtering livestock. He can crush weaker foes effortlessly, and even against Star Position Martial Pillars, the Moon Position-level Wu Zhiqi can overpower them completely.

In fact, Wu Zhiqi had just used his divine power, but Le Yu and Ning Xinyuan couldn't sense it at all. After all, they aren't even Martial Pillars, and now it's nighttime; Wu Zhiqi's ability to crush them is only natural.

So to speak...

Le Yu glanced at the golden-furred demon ape Shi Pantuo beside him. Shi Pantuo was merely a Star Position Demon Race member. If Le Yu were to launch a surprise attack and use the 'Slaughter' divine power, there's a high probability he could kill it instantly.

Before switching accounts, Wu Zhiqi was submissive to enemies, but after the switch, he dealt heavy blows to his allies...

The speechless 'Qin Le Yin' seemed to notice the malice in Le Yu's eyes, showing a hint of mockery.

Le Yu quickly dismissed the thought.

Although divine powers are crucial trump cards among the Demon Race, the Yanjing Demon Race members are long-time acquaintances who know each other well. According to Wu Zhiqi, Shi Pantuo's divine power is 'Clone,' which allows it to instantly create multiple light-shadow illusions capable of light explosion attacks, making it extremely useful for both attack and escape. Moreover, Shi Pantuo has the habit of 'cloning upon being attacked,' making it very difficult for Le Yu to kill it instantly.

"Cough." Following the joint treatment of two Martial Pillars, 'Qin Le Yin' coughed up muddy blood and exhaled a long, murky breath. His body's functions began to operate normally, indicating he was no longer in a 'deathly stiff' state.

Seeing 'Qin Le Yin' out of life-threatening danger, Shi Pantuo stopped and took out a copper watch to check the time, saying, "Old Wu, there's not much time left; quickly move them into the stone coffin and carry them away!"

Shi Pantuo saved lives only because it was part of the mission; as long as the targets didn't die, it was fine. Ning Xinyuan lay gravely injured on the other side, and it didn't even look over—though not as extreme as Wu Zhiqi, it was happy to see the hairless monkeys suffer more.

"Allow me, grandpa. I'll move them right away." Le Yu replied, picking up 'Qin Le Yin' and tossing him into the stone coffin, then lifting Ning Xinyuan amidst her angry glare and placing her inside, pondering how to deal with the situation.

Although Shi Pantuo couldn't be killed, perhaps with the strength of a Moon Position Martial Pillar, Le Yu could act with impunity. He didn't have to run off to find the principal to complain; just by moving 'Qin Le Yin' and Ning Xinyuan away, he could foil their plans...

Plans... 'Demon Blood Alteration'... 'Forge Radiance'...

Le Yu stood there stunned.

He had just been checking his own physical condition, and now after rummaging through Wu Zhiqi's memories, he realized that Qin Le Yin, Ning Xinyuan, and even Wu Zhiqi were just pawns.

And the chessboard was not the Imperial Academy, not even Yanjing, but the entire brilliance!

The Demon Race concealed their claws for years, the National Relief Association reveals its mask and raises its butcher's knife—it couldn't be just for the lives of these people?

The curtain has been drawn, and what's about to unfold is a drama fueled by the convergence of time, place, and people by those orchestrating from behind the scenes.

Demon Blood Alteration, Forge Radiance, dragons and serpents rise on land, the universe in upheaval, Yanjing shall fall eventually, the millennium throne reaching its end!
