Two hundred days, three hundred days...
Time flew by. Qin Heng's Eternal Heart grew increasingly complete, while his original body gradually faded into insubstantiality, becoming an empty phantom shell.
In the blink of an eye, more than eight hundred Void Ember Days had passed. Qin Heng's Eternal Body had completely vanished, replaced by a colossal translucent crystal like a planet.
The crystal was spherical, and within it were mysterious engraved patterns that appeared exceedingly simple yet concealed the Space Avenue. They were connected to one another by tiny blood vessels.
This was his Eternal Heart.
The spatial inscriptions within it were still in their initial stage and had yet to drive his Eternal Heart through a transformation.
For Eternal Grade lifeforms, breaking through was easy; transforming was difficult.
The difficulty of taking this step, compared with the nine major transformation barriers ahead, could only be called child's play.
Many Lords could not achieve even a single transformation in their entire lives. Those who could transform twice along one path were already considered outstanding, while anyone who transformed three times or more along the same Great Dao was a figure of brilliance—an entire era of a divine kingdom might not produce even one.
Because transformation was so difficult, many Lords even began to doubt themselves or simply gave up, choosing another path for their second or third transformation, becoming the "shoddy goods" among high-ranking Lords and Kings.
Qin Heng had chosen an exceptionally powerful Eternal Great Dao. This meant he would be stronger than other Lords of the same realm, but it also meant his path would be far more arduous. Perhaps even his first transformation would have to wait until a distant future, or perhaps he would find it difficult to transform further along the same path for the rest
