Chapter 1634: Lin Qianxue Breaks Through to the Immortal Stage

"Back to the master, as far as I know."

The insect race is active more frequently in the Second Theater's Seven Stars Continent."

"There are many nests and dense populations there."

In response to Xu Jingming's inquiry, Haley replied respectfully.

"Seven Stars Continent?" Xu Jingming's gaze flickered; he already had a plan forming.

His journey through the Starfall Secret Realm had let him taste the sweetness of reaping vast Source Points.

If he could truly reach the insect race's gathering grounds, the rate of Source Point acquisition would surge!

"Good. Once Senior Sister breaks through to the Immortal Stage,"

"Then we'll finish off that old dog Colte's task and head to the Seven Stars Continent."

A flash of sharpness passed through his eyes, then he turned to Haley:

"By the way, when can you break through to the Immortal Stage?"

Haley's transparent wings trembled slightly; her voice was gentle:

"If I follow the standard cultivation path, I should break through within a year."

"But if the master can find for me an SSS9-grade heavenly treasure—Ocean Essence—"

"I can immediately surge toward the Immortal Stage and condense a supreme divine body."

She had once been the supreme insect empress of the cosmos.

Cultivating both water and space primal sources, her foundation was profound—she only lacked that final step.

"Ocean Essence?"

Xu Jingming noted the item and nodded: "I understand."

Insect race peers are invincible; Haley is among the elite of insect prodigies.

If she can enter the Immortal Stage sooner, she will become a major asset under my command!

This matter requires careful attention.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The Hundred Clans War rankings officially closed.

On the massive holographic screen before the Task Tower, the words "Ashes Squad" hung at the top.

Radiating brilliant golden light, their military merit number froze at over three hundred billion, claiming victory by overwhelming dominance!

"We won! We won!"

"First place! Ashes Squad is first!"

On the square, members of Ashes Squad cheered, shaking the heavens.

Duke, Lyle, and others were so excited their faces flushed red.

Lin Qianxue wore a silver-white battle suit.

Standing tall beside Xu Jingming, her exquisitely beautiful face held anticipation.

In her palm rested a treasure the size of a fist, translucent as if forged from condensed void.

It was the final reward of this ranking battle—the Void Source Crystal!

Sufficient to aid her breakthrough to the Immortal Stage.

"Congratulations, Squad Leader!"

Congratulations surged like a tide.

Lin Qianxue nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over the crowd, her clear, cold voice echoing across the square:

"We won first place thanks to everyone's efforts."

"Today, I will break through to the Immortal Stage right here on the garrison square."

"If any of you wish to observe, you may stand by."

At these words, the entire square erupted!

To observe an Immortal Spirit's breakthrough—what an unimaginable opportunity?

For Cosmos Stage and Star Stage cultivators, it was nothing short of divine transformation!

Xu Jingming's eyes also held anticipation.

He had seen many Immortal Spirits before.

But to witness a breakthrough from the cosmic apex to Immortal—this was his first time.

Soon,

In the central square of Ashes Squad's garrison.

Lin Qianxue sat cross-legged at the center of the square.

Her black hair cascaded like a waterfall, her face cold and breathtakingly beautiful.

Xu Jingming and the Wildfire Team stood a hundred meters away.

Beyond them, members of the squad who had heard the news filled the surroundings.

All held their breath, eyes fixed intently.

"Begin."

Lin Qianxue drew a deep breath; the Void Source Crystal in her palm suddenly flared!

Hum—

Brilliant silver-white light erupted from within the crystal.

It rippled outward, instantly linking to the cosmic laws beyond the veil!

Simultaneously, Lin Qianxue's cosmic apex aura exploded without restraint!

Boom—boom—boom!!!

Above the heavens, a strange phenomenon suddenly erupted!

The once-clear sky darkened abruptly, and an infinite shadow of the Law Sea descended from the depths of empty space!

It was a vast, boundless ocean of energy, covering more than half of the entire Planet Fortress 102!

Lightning crackled, and the aura of destruction spread everywhere.

This was the cosmic resonance triggered by Lin Qianxue's primary cultivation of Lightning Origin and Destruction Origin!

"The Law Sea has descended!"

"Such terrifying pressure!"

Many of the onlookers, cosmic-tier generals, whispered in admiration.

Even though they were thousands of meters away from the Law Sea above, its boundless law vibrations still made their souls tremble.

Xu Jingming looked up, his eyes flickering with awe.

This was the crucial step toward breaking through to the Eternal Life stage.

Trigger the Law Sea, and reshape the divine body with the power of cosmic origins!

Only to see blazing lightning erupt all around Lin Qianxue.

Blue-white lightning arcs danced like dragons and serpents, their aura of destruction surging skyward!

"Condense!"

She cried out clearly, and the Void Source Crystal completely melted.

It transformed into a torrent of primordial energy that flooded into her body.

In the next instant, the Law Sea boiled!

Infinite Lightning Origin and Destruction Origin surged like a heavenly river inverted, pouring relentlessly into Lin Qianxue's body!

Her original flesh-and-blood form, under the scouring of this boundless power, began a fundamental transformation.

Her skin glowed with the luster of jade, her bones revealed crystalline lightning patterns.

Every inch of her flesh and blood resonated as it restructured, transformed, and ascended!

A sacred, immortal aura slowly radiated from her.

At the same time, Lin Qianxue's understanding of the Lightning Origin surged forward under the Law Sea's enhancement.

She had cultivated the Lightning Origin to perfection for over a thousand years.

Now, after years of accumulated depth, she finally touched that threshold!

Humm!!!

A brilliant lightning mark slowly coalesced on her forehead.

Shaped like lightning, radiating boundless majesty!

"The Lightning Origin has been recognized by the cosmos!" Xu Jingming's eyes flickered with admiration.

This was Law Recognition.

The next extreme beyond Origin Realm,

After gaining the cosmos's willful approval, the power of this origin would explode, becoming as easy to control as one's own limbs!

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

Primordial energy continued to pour in; Lin Qianxue's body gradually blurred, enveloped in lightning and destruction aura.

The entire breakthrough process lasted a full day and night.

The glow of the Law Sea gradually dimmed, finally dissolving into nothingness.

In the center of the square, Lin Qianxue slowly opened her eyes.

Boom—

A power far exceeding her former self erupted violently!

She remained seated, but fine blue-white lightning arcs curled around her, her forehead's thunder mark shining brilliantly.

Her previously cold and exquisite face now carried an added divine majesty.

Her skin gleamed like divine jade; when her eyes opened and closed, lightning seemed to be born and extinguished within.

Her flesh-and-blood body had been entirely transformed into a divine body.

Eternal Life Divine, Lin Qianxue, had become!

From now on, she would never again be bound by lifespan!

"Congratulations, Leader, on breaking through to Eternal Life!"

"Hail Leader, for achieving the Divine Body!"

Around the square, cheers and congratulations rose like a tidal wave.

Xu Jingming walked forward with a smile.

He studied the lightning mark on her forehead and teased:

"Sister, you're truly the Goddess of Lightning now—this aura is terrifying."

Lin Qianxue took his hand and stood up, her stunning face breaking into a bright smile:

"It's all thanks to you, little brother."

Had it not been for Xu Jingming nurturing her injuries all along with his Life Core,

and helping her seize the Void Source Crystal,

she could never have broken through so smoothly.

"Oh? Then you'd better repay me well."

Xu Jingming spoke with implication.

【121】 Lin Qianxue rolled her eyes, beautifully.

Zi Ran understood what he meant, but didn't refuse—she only softly replied, "Let's talk tonight."

Immediately, her gaze swept across the crowd, her cold voice echoing across the square:

"Issue the order: the entire battalion celebrates for three days—all expenses covered by the battalion!"

"Long live the Battalion Leader!" The cheers once again shook the heavens.
