Turning to Nirvana
Outside world.
"This fluctuation? He's Heavenly Symbol Master! Lin Dong broke through this barrier so quickly? The Devouring Ancestral Symbol is practically a cheat code for cultivation, isn't it?"
The Little Marten, keenly sensing the mysterious fluctuations, scratched its paw enviously.
"Boom!"
Just as the Little Marten was secretly envious, an exceptionally powerful surge of Origin Energy suddenly erupted from Lin Dong's body, and at the same time, Lin Dong's aura also surged wildly.
Creation Stage Great Accomplishment, Peak of the Creation Stage Great Accomplishment, Creation Stage Peak, Half-Step...
"Hmm, no, this kid originally planned to break through in both Origin Energy and Mental Energy. It's alright for Mental Energy, but to break through to the Nirvana Stage in Origin Energy, he needs to absorb a massive amount of Nirvana Qi. I have to give him a hand."
The Little Marten's expression suddenly changed, and it instantly realized what was happening.
Just as the Little Marten was about to make a move, it suddenly stopped, scratching its whiskers with its paws, looking extremely conflicted. "Generally speaking, being able to absorb a million Nirvana Pill is considered a super genius. So how many can this kid absorb? Two million or three million? Never mind, let's just take out five million Nirvana Pill first."
As mentioned earlier, the prerequisite for a martial artist to break through to the Nirvana Stage is to absorb a massive amount of Nirvana Pill, so that Nirvana Qi permeates the entire body. Only in this way can the Nirvana Qi be used to deeply temper the physical body and soul, thereby constructing the Nirvana Golden Body.
As for how many Nirvana Pills to absorb, that depends entirely on the cultivator's individual talent and ability; naturally, the more the better.
"Yuan Gathering Array, appear!"
As the Little Marten waved its paw, countless rays of light Breaking Through the Void out and intertwined in mid-air, forming a massive and mysterious light array.
"Splash!"
The Cosmic Bag was opened, and a torrent of fiery red Nirvana Pill immediately flew out from the bag, surging into the great formation. With muffled sounds, they melted into extremely pure Nirvana Qi.
After being compressed and transformed several times by the great formation, the massive, almost tangible Nirvana Qi was compressed into beams of crimson energy, all of which were thrown toward the figure in the center of the cave.
"Buzz!"
Perhaps Sense Stage something, a vortex black hole appeared behind Lin Dong's head as he sat cross-legged like a statue. It quickly expanded to several meters in size and eventually completely enveloped him, unleashing an extremely terrifying Devouring Power.
Like swallows returning to their nests, beams of crimson light fell into the enormous vortex black hole, continuously pouring into Lin Dong's body and becoming the resources for his advancement.
Golden rays continuously seeped from Lin Dong's pores, sweeping across the surface of his muscles. Even the major organs beneath his skin were subtly imbued with the golden light, as the Nirvana Qi rapidly took hold of Lin Dong's entire body.
Thanks to the Nirvana Qi Nirvana Pill, which continuously poured in, Lin Dong's body rapidly turned golden at a visible speed, constructing his own Nirvana Golden Body.
Half-step Nirvana Stage, Half-step Nirvana Stage Realm, Nirvana...
When the last blank area on his skin was completely occupied by that golden aura, Lin Dong's body suddenly trembled. Boundless golden light swept across the entire cave, and his whole body seemed to be cast in real gold. From a distance, Lin Dong looked like a golden war god sitting peacefully.
"Boom!"
At the same time, an exceptionally powerful surge of Origin Energy suddenly erupted from Lin Dong's body, and the immense pressure instantly pinned the tiger and the weasel inside the cave to the ground, rendering them completely immobile.
Nirvana Stage, achieved!
"Hey, you brat, let go of me right now! Don't I have any dignity? Don't think you're so great just because you've reached the Nirvana Stage! Believe Lord Marten or not, I'll jump up and punch you in the knee!"
The Little Marten, its cheek pressed tightly against the ground, had no choice but to shout at the top of its lungs.
"Meow meow meow?"
Feeling his own strength was insufficient, Little Flame obediently buried his head in the Nirvana Pill, continuing to inhale and exhale the rich Nirvana Qi.
"Buzzing~"
After a while, the domineering pressure that filled the entire cave finally dissipated slowly, and the powerful Origin Energy fluctuations receded back into Lin Dong's body like a tide.
"Hey, why are you two both lying on the ground?"
Lin Dong opened his eyes and looked at the two who were lying prostrate on the ground with a puzzled expression.
"Ahem, it's nothing. This Lord Marten is just tired, so I'm sitting down to rest for a bit."
Little Marten quickly got up and patted his knees, which he had been kneeling for a long time, as if feeling guilty.
"Really?" Lin Dong blinked suspiciously.
"Certainly."
Little Marten nodded emphatically, then subtly changed the subject. "You have quite the talent, kid. You actually absorbed over four million Nirvana Pill before attempting to break through to the Nirvana Stage. You're only slightly less capable than I Lord Marten back then."
"Oh."
"..."
"How long have I been in seclusion?"
"It's been more than half a year, and there are still three months until the Lin Clan's once-a-decade Clan Assembly. You have enough time to go back to Yan City to meet up with your clansmen before heading to Lin City to attend the meeting."
"The Nirvana Stage is indeed extraordinary. The Nirvana Golden Body constructed with Nirvana Qi has surpassed the strength of the Great Sun Thunder Body at its Great Achievement."
With a thought, endless golden light shone from Lin Dong's pores. Under the illumination of the golden light, his whole body was immediately dyed a golden, glassy color, giving him an indestructible feeling like real gold.
"For Nirvana Stage expert, the Nirvana Stage Golden Body is not only their symbol, but also one of their strongest defensive measures. It can ignore the attacks of experts below the Nirvana Stage and can also fight against experts of the same or even higher level in physical combat."
"With this, your Great Sun Thunder Body can be retired."
The Little Marten nodded in agreement.
"No, I plan to continue to deduce the Great Sun Thunder Body. The Nirvana Golden Body is only effective against low-level or same-level powerhouses. Against high-level powerhouses, it can only be suppressed."
"If the Nirvana Golden Body is truly the strongest physical body, then why do those guys from the Primeval Desolation Sect still need to cultivate various Body Tempering Martial Arts and painstakingly train their physical strength?"
Lin Dong his head, clearly disagreeing with Little Marten's statement.
The Primeval Desolation Sect, one of the Eight Great Super Sects of the Eastern Xuan Region, is renowned for its formidable physical prowess. The entire sect trains relentlessly, treating their bodies as their ultimate weapon. From the Sect Master down, everyone takes pride in developing bulging muscles, resulting in a plethora of Muscle Man.
"Moreover, I have only just stepped into the Nirvana Stage and have not even passed the Nirvana Tribulation yet. The strength of the Nirvana Golden Body is not as strong as I imagined."
Lin Dong continued to explain.
After entering the Nirvana Stage, Nirvana Stage expert must pass through nine more Nirvana Stage and endure countless Nirvana Flame before they can be called a Nine Yuan Nirvana expert.
Through repeated tribulations, the lifespan of Nirvana Stage expert will continuously increase, their vitality will grow stronger, and they will eventually be reborn as monster-like beings.
Given Lin Dong's current state, he has not even survived a single Nirvana Tribulation, and cannot even be considered One Yuan Nirvana expert; he can only be considered to have just entered the Nirvana Stage.
Similarly, only by passing through nine Wind Thunder Tribulation and undergoing countless trials by the Wind-Thunder Power can Heavenly Symbol Master be called Nine Seal Heaven Talisman Master.
He is currently only at the initial stage of becoming Heavenly Symbol Master.
