Chapter 1222: Myriad Beast Physique Grand Completion

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The phoenix queen would certainly feel the change in her intent. She wouldn’t be enslaved by the sword given her cultivation but this created karma. Since Feiyun was the master of Nefarious, he became responsible.

How did he become its master? Because he had refined his own thoughts into the sword, creating a spirit.

The serpent demon king had done something like this previously. The spirit of the weapon needed to be one with the master to exert the weapon to its fullest potential.

“You refined your evil and demon affinity into the sword?” Phoenix Goddess’ wound on her forehead healed perfectly.

She saw his lucid eyes and knew that he had regained his humanity. Alas, something was off about her gaze.

She stared at him like a concubine staring at her husband or a pet staring at its master. The sword had pierced her forehead. Although the queen had stopped it, it still affected her.

Willpower was the only thing preventing her from kneeling to Feiyun. Now, the sword had regained another part, gaining two-thirds of its true form.

Just one cut could turn a powerful cultivator into a slave. This was a power affecting the soul and will.

Feiyun could see its effect on her and nodded: “When I fully turn them into the weapon’s spirit, I will remove the connection between the sword and me.”

“Thank you, but I will use my power to remove its effect. If successful, my dao heart will improve dramatically, perhaps enough to learn a saint dao of my own.” She said confidently.

“And if you were to fail, perhaps not even I can bring you back. I wish to be your friend, not master and slave.” He said.

He appreciated her attempt at stopping him from succumbing to his desires. Turning her into a slave would be regrettable and shameful.

“If I can’t suppress this sword, it means that my willpower isn’t strong enough to reach the saint realm. Feiyun, let me give it a shot, all or nothing.” She said while adding one more line in her mind - I don’t mind being your servant, whether it be in the past life or current...

“Fine, I respect your choice. It is indeed a perfect training opportunity, a test to see if you are worthy of becoming a saint. I have confidence in your willpower.” He said.

“Your cultivation improved, I see eighty-one dao laws now.” She noticed something.

“Removing my demon evil avatar brings my true personality back, now I am not affected by impure thoughts so I am free and feel enlightened. Haha, I thought I would have reached the eighth level directly.” He said.

Without the threat of the demon and evil affinity, he found unprecedented freedom.

“Your mentality is ten times stronger than before, so your dao enlightenment speed will improve as well, it won’t be long for the eighth level. I will not disturb you any longer, we have training to do.” She said before flying up a peak.

She took a deep breath because being next to him was unbearable. She struggled to stay on her feet. This was a spiritual and mental subjugation, like a mortal looking at a god or a monk looking at Buddha.

She closed her eyes and meditated, becoming as still as a statue.

As for Feiyun, he didn’t know how much he affected her by just standing there. He summoned Nefarious and took a look inside. The will of the phoenix queen had been refined by his avatar entirely so it became stronger.

Alas, he was still the main body so it took him three days to take over the avatar and the sword.

“One of the ten ominous weapons from Time Immemorial, Nefarious.” As he held the sword, clouds and lightning bolts materialized into existence.

An image of a great sword appeared in the sky, scaring the hell out of the beasts in the region.

“Whoosh!” One slash decapitated an eighth-level beast from ten thousand miles away.

Nefarious was powerful even without its mental suppression effect.

“Such powerful sword energies.” He was pleased and put it away.

He returned to the world river, releasing the beast souls again for more essence absorption. The process took two days and all of them reached the pseudo level.

They regained a physical form and looked majestic, roaring at the sky.

“Grand completion.” He recalled all ten thousand souls back inside.

His bones and flesh were covered with beast runes of various forms - dragons, golden lions...

This transformation was substantial. Going from 5,400 to 10,000 wasn’t just a matter of doubling. His whole being was different and imbued with bestial power.

“Boom! Boom!” This physical improvement also increased his phoenix physique, starting with one, two, ten...

It didn’t stop there and the phoenix bones also had bestial runes.

30, 40, 100...

Feiyun gained 131 new phoenix bones for 356 bones in just one short minute - a full cycle. The shockwaves emanating from him were strong enough to force mighty beasts such as the golden buddha ape and one-hundred-legged crow back.

Suddenly, all the auras disappeared and he looked like a regular person. This new state granted him the ability to control his power with finesse.

“I have 10,081 saint laws now, so which level am I in, eighth or ninth? Or perhaps just seventh.” He murmured.

The seventh level ranged from 1 to 99 saint laws.

The eighth level ranged from 100 to 10,000 saint laws.

The ninth level changed the dantian to a dao embryo, encompassing more than 10,000 saint laws. In theory, Feiyun had more than the requirement but he didn’t have a dao embryo.

His actual number was still just 81, the rest belonged to the beast souls. Nevertheless, he believed he was stronger than the eighth-level cultivators now.

“I’m at the peak mythical level now, there’s a chance of reaching the deified level if I can reach grand completion with the phoenix physique or have all the beast souls with dao embryo. Hmm, no, I shouldn’t rush this. The focus should be to understand the dao law lest risk qi deviation.” He murmured.

He had all beast souls at the seventh level now and needed them at the ninth level. Only a few saints in history achieved this.
