Chapter 1373: Transformation “Are those things so obedient?” Su Zimo was shocked. However, he understood right away. “That’s right, you’ve awakened the power in your bloodline. As such, you’re considered as the owner of this place that is acknowledged by the Beiming clan’s ancestors. Since these stone puppets were left behind by your ancestors, they will naturally obey your orders upon sensing the aura of your bloodline.” At that point, Beiming Xue seemed to have an understanding as well. “All of you, stand there and don’t move! This is my master! You’re not allowed to hurt him!” Beiming Xue said to the 18 stone statue puppets. The 18 stone statue puppets closed their eyes one after another and the divine light in their eyes faded rapidly, sinking back into silence. Beiming Xue helped Su Zimo up hurriedly. “I am fine,” Su Zimo shook his head. Although he was struck by the stone statue puppets a few times, his foundation was not injured and those were merely superficial wounds. Beiming Xue said, “Master, you once said that the primordial divine spring can heal your Essence Spirit’s injuries. Hurry and go. I’ll guard here with these stone statue puppets and not let anyone disturb you.” “Alright,” Su Zimo pondered for a moment and did not decline. He felt emotional as he walked towards the primordial divine spring. It was because of Beiming Xue that he could escape from the endless void. Later on, when he witnessed the experiences she had to go through, he had the intention of taking her in as a disciple and stayed in Beiming Town for an entire three years! For the past three years, the Life Severing Curse had been pestering him and it was extremely painful. However, he did not leave because he wanted to sever his karma. To think that it was that action that gave him the chance to repair his Essence Spirit! Now that he thought about it, if he had left long ago to look for the primordial divine spring in order to recover from his injuries, he might not have had any outcome even in 30 or 300 years, let alone three! Everything in the world worked in extremely mysterious ways; this was nothing more than the workings of karma. In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo had already arrived beside the pool. He had once known about the existence of the primordial divine spring from his Dragon True Body. However, he could not conceal the shock on his face when he saw it personally! This divine spring was the most mystical thing in the world! Just by standing beside the pool and taking a deep breath, Su Zimo felt the vitality in his body surge, causing his Essence Spirit to feel better. Without hesitation, he leaped into the golden pool and laid down flat, sinking gradually. Endless lifeforce surged into his body through his pores and streams of life essence entered his consciousness, washing through his Essence Spirit! It was warm and extremely comfortable to be enveloped by that rich lifeforce. The Green Lotus True Body felt itchy and numb, as though countless ants were crawling within his flesh and organs. Su Zimo’s body sank into the pool and he bumped into a gigantic stone beneath him, causing it to give way. Perhaps due to his collision or some other reason, the round stone rolled to the side and Su Zimo sank into the pool smoothly. At that moment, the primordial divine spring was washing through the body, bloodline, bones, organs and even Essence Spirit of the Green Lotus True Body! Su Zimo was not bothered by the stone in the pool. The nourishment of the primordial divine spring did not merely heal Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit and cultivation realm. The Green Lotus True Body underwent tremendous transformations inside out as well! Black things were spilling out of his pores like mud impurities. As for his bones, they were made with the lotus stem as the foundation and were supplemented by the treasures of many super sects—they were initially green-gold. Under the baptism of the primordial divine spring, the green-gold skeleton gradually underwent a transformation. It became increasingly transparent and crystalline like jade. The green color intensified while the dark gold color faded gradually! The black impurities that were washed away by the primordial divine spring were none other than the great treasures that Su Zimo refined and used to forge his bones! Those treasures were initially the Destiny Dharmic Weapons of the titular disciples and were extremely powerful. But now, the Green Lotus True Body took those melted treasures as impurities and purged them out of the body! The aura of every single bone of the Green Lotus True Body became purer and more transparent, like a true lotus stem! His bones and bloodline underwent a qualitative change as well! Splash! A series of strange sounds echoed as his marrow flowed. As his bones grew and his marrow was swapped continuously, the bloodline that was derived grew stronger as well! In his consciousness, under the nourishment of the primordial divine spring, the Creation Lotus Platform shone with rays of light that washed through the black-haired Essence Spirit continuously! Curses were the most evil. However, even that power could not defend against the primordial divine spring. Within his consciousness, resplendent light shone in a dazzling manner and the green mist that shrouded the black-haired Essence Spirit gradually melted—the power of the curse was gradually dispelled! The Green Lotus True Body emitted a boundless vitality from inside out that intensified! … The Ximen aristocratic family. More than ten experts sat in the meeting hall. All of them were Conjoint Body Mighty Figures and the atmosphere was heavy! The fact that more than ten Conjoint Body Mighty Figures were alarmed was proof of how serious this matter was. The person in the middle looked to be only middle-aged but he had already cultivated to the late-stage Conjoint Body realm. With a burning gaze and the dignified aura of someone who had been in power for a long time, he was the master of the Ximen aristocratic family! Elder Qiu stood in the center of the hall. “Desolate Martial came to the South Region and now, he has a direct conflict with the Dongfang as well as our families. Everyone, what do you think?” The Ximen family master was calm as he took a sip of tea before saying slowly. “To think that Dao Lord Desolate Martial would be so lucky to be able to return alive after being attacked by Di Fan and exiled into the void!” “Desolate Martial is a jinx. Everywhere he goes, things won’t be peaceful.” “Desolate Martial has a great reputation in the North and Middle Continent. However, isn’t it a little cocky and arrogant for him to want to challenge our two aristocratic families in the South Region?” An old man said slowly, “In my opinion, this matter can’t be tolerated. We should kill Desolate Martial to prevent future troubles!” “Elder Jing Yue, that’s a little inappropriate,” Elder Qiu frowned. “Although Desolate Martial was a Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord, how many Conjoint Body experts died in the battle of Heaven and Earth Valley? The entire cultivation world was shocked!” “Now that Desolate Martial has returned, he must be extremely domineering. In my opinion, it’s not suitable for us to make an enemy out of him.” “Fufu,” Elder Jing Yue smiled gently. “Elder Qiu, you’re old and you don’t seem to be sharp anymore. From what you said, I’m certain that Desolate Martial is definitely injured!” “What’s the meaning of that?!” Elder Qiu frowned. Elder Jing Yue said unhurriedly, “According to your description, from the moment Desolate Martial attacked till the end, he did not use any Dharmic arts and merely fought with his body.” “That’s right! But what’s wrong with that? Everyone knows that Desolate Martial has a strong physique and extraordinary melee combat strength,” Elder Qiu argued. Elder Jing Yue shook his head. “If it was just because he did not use any Dharmic arts, that would have been fine. Desolate Martial did not even use Dharmic weapons, Essence Spirit secret skills or even fly through the air. How could there be nothing strange about that?” Elder Qiu frowned in deep thought.
