Chapter 896 Salary Ability Surges! Great Void Dao Physique (10/10)
Looking at the full thousands of immortal dao elements now neatly arranged in front of him, Zhang Yu could not help but sigh with emotion in his heart.
“The Immortal Emperor is virtuous, and the sect is virtuous.”
“With so many immortal dao elements required to break through to Void Refinement, I’m afraid that if this were in ancient times, without spending hundreds of years and exhausting all of one’s Immortal Dao resources, it would be absolutely impossible to gather them.”
“Now, to cultivate a Void Refinement expert, the sect has gathered them all in such a short amount of time. This is all due to the progress of Immortal Dao Technology and the progress of the sect. It is the grand vision of the Immortals…”
Zhang Yu sighed with emotion. Just as he was about to collect the immortal dao elements in front of him, a Spirit Realm light screen bloomed before his eyes.
Seeing the text on the light screen, Zhang Yu’s expression changed slightly: “Void Refinement Loan?”
“100 million Immortal Coins!!”
Zhang Yu was shocked: “These Immortals, no… I knew these Immortal Livestock harbored no good intentions!”
Immortal Slayer said as a matter of course: “Over a thousand kinds of immortal dao elements required to break through to Void Refinement, which are also precious materials that can only be produced and manufactured above the 15th layer. How could they let you have it cheap in Kunxu?”
The Sect Examination Clone said, “Zhang Yu! How can you call them Immortal Livestock?! Giving you the opportunity to break through to Void Refinement in a short time — in ancient times, this would be an opportunity that countless people couldn’t even beg for!”
Zhang Yu snorted coldly, “Those who give me money are Immortals, and those who ask me for money are Immortal Livestock.”
He pointed at the Void Refinement Loan in front of him and said, “Repayment starts in five years, repaying 2,000,000 Immortal Coins a month for 100 years, making it a total of 2,400,000,000 Immortal Coins?”
Zhang Yu sighed, “In ancient times, it took over a hundred years just to have a chance to break through to Void Refinement. Now, Kunxu wants me to spend 100 years paying off a loan after breaking through to Void Refinement!”
Fu Ji said, “It’s still an improvement. At least you break through early and enjoy it early. Besides, repayment only starts in five years. When the time comes, paying 2,000,000 Immortal Coins a month should still be affordable for us.”
Immortal Slayer said, “This is the present-day Kunxu. It’s completely normal for Void Refinement Dao Monarchs to spend a hundred years paying off loans after breaking through. There are even plenty of people who have experienced multiple extensions and are still paying off their Void Refinement Loan all the way into the Ascension Realm.”
Just then, a countdown appeared on the light screen in front of Zhang Yu, as if urging him to quickly sign the Void Refinement Loan contract.
Zhang Yu sighed, knowing he couldn’t give up the immediate opportunity to break through, so he could only obediently sign his name on the contract.
“Fortunately, repayment only starts in 5 years, so it won’t affect my upcoming development for the time being.”
Zhang Yu understood that this 5-year grace period was definitely set by the sect, giving newly-advanced Void Refinement Dao Monarchs a certain amount of time to develop, allowing them to have enough earning power after their breakthrough before starting to repay the loan.
After signing the contract, the immortal dao elements before him truly belonged to Zhang Yu.
As Zhang Yu took a deep breath, portions of the immortal dao elements were drawn over by him.
At the same time, Zhang Yu’s Primordial Spirit suddenly emerged, absorbing the immortal dao elements into his body.
Zhang Yu had long since clearly learned the process of breaking through to Void Refinement.
He knew that the so-called Void Refinement was to reforge the Primordial Spirit step by step. Using the means of creating life from the void, along with more than 700 types of immortal dao elements thrown in, it completed the reconstruction of the Primordial Spirit! Rebirth!
Moreover, Zhang Yu’s various indicators, data, and the state of his Primordial Spirit had long since reached the absolute pinnacle of Peak Spirit Transformation. It could be said that everything was ready except for the crucial final touch, and his breakthrough at this moment could be described as an unstoppable force.
With a loud boom, Zhang Yu’s Primordial Spirit suddenly shattered, seemingly exploding into nothingness in an instant.
But in the next moment, Zhang Yu formed a Dao Seal with his hands, and the formless Primordial Spirit began its reorganization, attracted by various immortal dao elements.
During this process, the higher the quality of the Primordial Spirit — for instance, the higher the degree of the ten divine light transformations, the greater its efficiency in absorbing the immortal dao elements.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yu’s Primordial Spirit had finished its restructuring. It stood before him like a figure of light, its entire body exuding a vitality it had never possessed in the past.
This Void Refinement Primordial Spirit had undergone a qualitative change compared to a Primordial Spirit of the Spirit Transformation Realm. It was no longer just a cultivator’s second life; it now possessed a portion of the cultivator’s spiritual intelligence, capable of taking over almost all of the cultivator’s work and cultivation.
Immortal Slayer sighed in admiration, “A Void Refinement Primordial Spirit can move at the speed of light, utilize all of the cultivator’s own cultivation arts and power, and even cross space to directly receive power transmissions from the cultivator’s main body.”
“Furthermore, since it can borrow a portion of the cultivator’s spiritual intelligence, it acts like an external brain for the cultivator, while still remaining one hundred percent under their control…”
“So theoretically speaking, after breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm, one only needs the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit to work and cultivate, and the cultivator themselves no longer needs to work or cultivate. A single Void Refinement Primordial Spirit is enough to support the cultivator and even continue advancing their cultivation.”
Immortal Slayer sighed, “Actually, reaching this step of Void Refinement, in a certain sense, the cultivator can have the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit earn money without working themselves, and have the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit cultivate without cultivating themselves. It is already financial freedom and cultivation freedom.”
“It’s just a pity that with an aspiration for the Immortal Path, people ultimately won’t stop.”
At the same time, Zhang Yu had already begun to experience the power of the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit.
With a mere thought, a burst of Earthly Fiend Gravity was transmitted from his own body into the body of the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit almost without loss, and was violently released, triggering bursts of gales all around.
“The power transmission has reached almost ninety-nine percent, with at most a 1% loss during the process. Is this the effect of the ten divine light transformations?”
Meanwhile, as the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit before him took a deep breath, Zhang Yu felt a roar of magic power within his body; the cultivation effects of the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit had already fed back to him.
“The cultivation feedback has also reached nearly ninety-nine percent efficiency.”
Zhang Yu knew that this was the powerful Primordial Spirit forged by the ten divine light transformations, making his Void Refinement Primordial Spirit incredibly robust.
If his Primordial Spirit had only reached nine divine light transformations, then the power transmission and cultivation feedback would be at most 90 percent. If it were eight transformations, it would be 80 percent at best.
And the level of these capabilities would affect his future efficiency in interfering with immortal aura, subsequently impacting his potential level after law establishment.
“The Primordial Spirit has already completed its breakthrough, next up is… the physical body!”
The next moment, accompanied by the surging of vital energy within Zhang Yu’s body, the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit before him abruptly merged into one with his physical body.
Amidst a fierce rumbling, driven by the Void Refinement Primordial Spirit, Zhang Yu felt the muscles, bones, and internal organs all over his body violently tremble, as if they were unable to bear this boundary-breaking power.
But right at this moment, Zhang Yu took a deep breath and inhaled the remaining 300-plus portions of immortal dao elements into his body, beginning to support this metamorphosis of his physical body.
In an instant, an earth-shattering change erupted within his flesh and blood.
He felt that his dao heart, magic power, and physical strength… were all breaking through their bottlenecks, smashing past their limits!
In short, it was Zhang Yu’s…
“Salary Ability! Enhance me!”
Zhang Yu felt every shred of flesh and blood, every particle, and every trace of intent within his body… all growing madly.
Boom!
Dao heart reached Level 52 (11.29%). Magic power broke through 2 million units! Physical strength broke through 52.45 points!
At this moment, Zhang Yu’s Salary Ability skyrocketed repeatedly. Whether it was his Primordial Spirit or his physical body, everything fully reached the Void Refinement Realm.
At the same time, an even closer connection was forged between his physical body and Primordial Spirit.
Zhang Yu could feel that at this moment, he no longer needed the support of any cultivation art, Spirit Realm Techniques, or Dharma Realm Technology to be able to control his Void Refinement Primordial Spirit at will.
Zhang Yu threw out a light punch, and the berserk power seemed to instantly fill the heavens and the earth, triggering dense clusters of warnings to appear before his eyes.
Zhang Yu immediately retracted his power, but he could still feel the surrounding space faintly trembling from his action.
“Although my physical strength only increased by 2.45 levels, the boost in physical power is astonishing.”
Zhang Yu thought to himself, “That makes sense… As my cultivation realm continues to break through, the enhancement effect of every single point of base stats becomes increasingly earth-shattering.”
“This is why Bu Yingshu could easily suppress me using only physical strength back then.”
Although he had already broken through to Void Refinement, Zhang Yu’s improvements had not yet stopped.
The first thing he needed to do next was to use the draw rewards from the [Myriad Laws Immortal Clan].
“With my invincible aptitude, peerless talent, and my entire life’s comprehension of the Immortal Dao… Immeasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body! Break through for me!”
“Selectable military-grade cultivation technique level +1! 10 consecutive draws!”
Accompanied by an explosive shout in Zhang Yu’s heart, the Immortal Dao resources he had prepared long ago violently erupted.
His Second Mental Cultivation Technique, the “Immeasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body,” surged explosively, going from level 50 all the way to the Void Refinement limit of level 60 in a single breath.
In an instant, the 32-headed White Ox in Zhang Yu’s mind let out a long howl. Like a gigantic beast spanning heaven and earth, more ox heads, each the size of a mountain peak, suddenly sprouted from its body.
Finally, the 64-headed White Ox let out an earth-shattering long cry within Zhang Yu’s mind.
At this moment, as the Immeasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body violently broke through to level 60, Zhang Yu’s 32 layers of thinking had also sublimated into 64 layers of thinking.
“Next is the Myriad Transformations Self-Sovereign Art! Break through for me as well!”
As the Myriad Transformations Self-Sovereign Art also broke through to level 60, a surge of flesh and blood rippled within Zhang Yu’s body. The number of true clones he could summon skyrocketed from 32 to 64.
With 64 layers of thoughts combined with 64 physical clones, Zhang Yu instantly possessed 64 true clones capable of independent thought and wielding the vast majority of his power.
Zhang Yu’s Salary Ability was experiencing a crazy surge in growth!
Sensing this scene, Fu Ji was shocked to the extreme: “This guy Zhang Yu, not only is his speed of breaking through cultivation realms getting faster, but the efficiency of turning those breakthroughs into actual strength is also getting higher.”
“In just the blink of an eye, he actually broke through two cultivation arts to level 60? Just what level have this guy’s potential and innate talent…” “…been raised to by me?”
Meanwhile, feeling the crazily growing 64 layers of thoughts and 64 clones within his body, Zhang Yu let out a long laugh and said, “Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual! Break through for me too!”
The next moment, the vital energy within Zhang Yu’s body climbed violently, and in the blink of an eye, his entire body emitted a blazing high heat.
Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Art, level 60!
With the level 60 Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual, Zhang Yu could finally use this cultivation art to devour the magic power and vital energy of others, immediately increasing his base stats upon breaking through to the Void Refinement stage.
“Magic power! Physical strength! Add them all up for me!”
As Zhang Yu reached out and grasped, the power of the Dharma Realm had already been dispatched by him.
The deposits in Zhang Yu’s account began to evaporate rapidly like wisps of blue smoke.
And while the Immortal Coins evaporated, the magic power and vital energy sold by Void Refinement Dao Monarchs were poured into his body. After being digested by the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual, they became part of his power.
2.5 million magic power! 3 million magic power! 5 million magic power!!
Physical strength 53 points! Physical strength 54 points! Physical strength 55.26 points!!
At this moment, through the trading platform of the Dharma Realm, Zhang Yu bought a massive amount of magic power and vital energy.
If a Void Refinement Cultivator were given enough time to digest it, this would be enough to elevate three Void Refinement Cultivators, totaling 30 million units of magic power.
There was also enough vital energy to elevate three Void Refinement Cultivators, totaling 28.1 points of vital energy.
But right now, with the enhancement of the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual, it had elevated Zhang Yu’s base stats to the mid Void Refinement stage in an instant at a ratio of 10 to 1.
“What a pity…” Zhang Yu thought to himself, feeling the surges of magic power and physical strength in his body that were faintly reaching the limit of his control. “If I want to continue this explosive growth, with my current Dao Heart level, it’ll be easy to lose control.”
He glanced at his account, which only had a little over 3 million Immortal Coins left, and thought, “Besides, if I continue to buy, the Immortal Coins consumed will be too much.”
Zhang Yu circulated the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual within his body. Feeling the Blazing Sun Dao Seed ready to erupt, he thought, “Moreover, if I simultaneously circulate the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual and the Blazing Sun Dao Seed to temporarily elevate my magic power and physical strength, the difference between me and the late Void Refinement stage won’t be that big.”
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu completely abandoned the idea of continuing to burn money to improve his base stats.
For him, having just broken through to the Void Refinement stage, as long as there were no major flaws in his base stats, it was enough.
The Herald God watched this scene, secretly shocked in his heart. He just broke through to Void Refinement, and his cultivation arts have surged this much? And his base stats too?
Herald God understood in his heart that this wasn’t just a matter of spending money.
Only by pushing the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Manual to level 60 could Zhang Yu spend such a small amount of money to raise his basic stats to the mid Void Refinement so quickly.
This guy… just after breaking through to Void Refinement, he has actually pushed at least three cultivation arts to the limit of Void Refinement?
Right at this moment, Zhang Yu’s gaze swept over the ten Void Refinement Realm basic cultivation arts he had purchased in advance, a confident smile appearing on his face.
Along the way, Zhang Yu had mastered far too many basic cultivation arts. Therefore, to him… among the draw rewards obtained by refining cultivation arts through the Myriad Laws Immortal Clan, the rewards related to basic cultivation arts were the most abundant.
Especially in order to quickly cash in on his salary ability after his Void Refinement breakthrough, Zhang Yu had refined a massive amount of basic cultivation arts in advance while still in the Spirit Transformation Realm, preparing a huge number of draw rewards.
After all, to the current Zhang Yu, basic cultivation arts were completely not worth mentioning, whether in terms of price or difficulty.
Thus, at this moment…
10 consecutive draws for initiating a self-selected basic cultivation art!
Self-selected basic cultivation art level +1! 600 consecutive draws!
In one breath, he pushed all ten Void Refinement-level basic cultivation arts to their maximum level of 60.
Zhang Yu’s entire body of flesh and blood trembled continuously as he circulated these 10 max-level cultivation arts all at once.
At the same time, an extraordinary aura emanated from within Zhang Yu’s body.
Immortal Slayer sighed, “Master Ying, is this the reason why you chose Zhang Yu?”
The Sect Examination Clone said, “Grandpa Immortal Emperor! Do you see this? We are here to show our utmost loyalty to you!”
The three Evil Gods — Fu Ji, Auspicious God, and Herald God — sensed this scene in astonishment.
Fu Ji: “What terrifying potential. Just what kind of monster have I created?”
Auspicious God: “I said it long ago! I said it back in the fifth layer! The key is Zhang Yu! It’s Zhang Yu!”
Herald God: “Congratulations, Dao Monarch Zhang, for breaking through to Void Refinement today and achieving great success in your divine art! You will definitely take the lead in this Law Establishment!”
Zhang Yu ignored the discussions of the various voices in his mind and simply looked at the Chain Formation Diagram in the Feather Book.
As the 10 basic cultivation arts successively reached max level, he also obtained the Chain Formation Diagram formed by these 10 cultivation arts: Great Void Dao Physique (10/10).
