Chapter 817

At the Mount Taiheng detached residence, Li Rui was practicing cross-legged under a large tree as usual.

Suddenly—

A sound of footsteps.

He saw the Retired Emperor Zhu Long holding a booklet in high spirits, with the Great Yu Ancestor Zhu Yuanlong following beside him.

Zhu Yuanlong: "You kid have good skills; number 137 on the Heaven Register, comparable even to a late-stage True Person."

Just a moment ago.

The Heaven Secret Record released its rankings.

Among them, the one with the greatest change on the Heaven Register was undoubtedly Li Rui, having advanced several hundred places.

One must know.

Where would there be weaklings among True Persons?

Advancing even one place is extremely difficult; those like Li Rui who advance by leaps and bounds are even fewer and farther between.

The person before him.

Was precisely Dao Lord Shuangquan.

There is even talk in the cultivation world of a "Little Shuangquan."

He was once a True Person himself, but he knew the gold content of this Heaven Register too well; precisely because of this, he was even more astonished at the speed of Li Rui's progress.

'Dual-certification is truly extraordinary.'

Zhu Yuanlong had no way of knowing the specific reason, but he roughly guessed that it should be related to the trip Li Rui took when he went out a few days ago.

He, of course, would not know.

That Li Rui's punch had directly beaten the Ancestor of the Fenxin Immortal Dynasty into a half-crippled state, even causing him to fall in realm.

He attributed all of this to the dual-certification.

Li Rui: "It is only because I have the care of Fellow Daoist Gu in the Heaven Secret Clan."

"Care?"

Zhu Yuanlong rolled his eyes.

He was not a novice who had just entered the Jianghu; he had naturally known of Gu Changsheng long ago, but the Heaven Secret Record had not been questioned for ten thousand years—how could it be modified because of a single Spirit Division Realm cultivator? If a member of the Heaven Secret Clan could manipulate the Heaven Secret Record, its credibility would have long since vanished.

It must be that Li Rui had done something extremely remarkable, which is why Dao Lord Heaven Secret was so generous.

However, there are some things that should not be told to anyone.

He understood the principle of "matters are completed through secrecy" all too well.

"Your kid's temperament is to this old man's liking."

Zhu Yuanlong laughed heartily.

Just at this moment—

Lines of small characters appeared before Li Rui's eyes.

【Congratulations to the Host for a significant increase in the Immortal Ranking!】

【As a young genius, you were born to be invincible; the Immortal Ranking geniuses before you will eventually all become stepping stones on your path to certification, and you will walk step, step, step, step... toward the supreme.】

【You are truly too dazzling, even suffering the jealousy of Heaven, which sent down a supreme thunder punishment; your physical body was completely destroyed, but you discovered a Chaos Spring within the sea of thunder, and used it to reshape your physical body.】

【Chaos Body: Half-formed!】

"Half-formed..."

In an instant.

A large amount of Chaos Qi surged within Li Rui's Purple Mansion.

His bones and foundation changed at an extremely fast speed.

Only a quarter of an hour later.

His Chaos Body had increased several times over.

In the cultivation world, the more one reaches the later stages, the more the bones and foundation appear to be lacking.

Of course.

Or perhaps it should be said that those physiques are not strong enough.

Physiques that can still exert effectiveness during the True Person stage are even fewer and farther between; the Chaos Body is one of them, and it is even useful after becoming an Immortal.
