Chapter 1644: Breakthrough to the Immortal Stage! Dual Origin Recognition!

After receiving approval, Lin Qianxue moved in and settled there.

As for Xu Jingming,

Colt gave him five million credits, and Teacher Shuangmian gave him another five million credits.

He now held exactly ten million credits in hand!

Thus, in the following cultivation,

besides consuming Jade Marrow Heavenly Peaches,

he also purchased other resources to aid his breakthrough to the Immortal Stage.

He accepted everything offered and swallowed it all.

He began a regimen of cramming-style cultivation.

Every day, without fail, he consumed two Jade Marrow Heavenly Peaches.

Combined with various pills and spirit liquids, he frantically ingested and refined them.

The primordial energy within his body accumulated like a snowball growing ever thicker.

His aura grew more majestic day by day; the boundary of the cosmic apex grew increasingly blurred.

It seemed he could shatter that threshold at any moment.

His cultivation method—unabashed, almost wasteful in resource consumption—

quickly spread throughout the Star Dome Academy.

"Has Xu Jingming already reached the Cosmic Apex? No way! It's only been over a decade since the Talent War—did he ride a rocket?"

"It's absolutely insane! But I heard he's trying to break through to the Immortal Stage and has been buying up resources in bulk."

"Tsk tsk, is he just stacking pills and rare treasures? What a waste of talent!"

"Exactly! External breakthroughs are inferior—they leave hidden flaws. With his talent, he'll surely enter the Immortal Stage within a hundred years, why rush now?"

"Who knows what he's thinking? Maybe he was triggered by the Outer Realm battlefield? Or does he have some unavoidable hardship?"

"......"

Training grounds, dining halls, dormitory zones...

Even on the Academy's virtual universe forums, similar discussions never ceased.

The vast majority of prodigies found Xu Jingming's breakthrough method incomprehensible, even regrettable.

To them, it was tantamount to destroying one's own Great Wall.

Sacrificing future potential for temporary realm advancement.

A few secretly sneered, waiting to watch him fail.

An Immortal Stage achieved through external forces—how strong could that really be?

Xu Jingming ignored all these remarks entirely.

How could sparrows understand the ambitions of swans?

He had the Deep Blue System backing him—so-called external flaws simply didn't exist.

Meanwhile, Yueying was also practicing the Twin Star Scripture in sync.

With Yueying and Lin Qianxue present, even as Xu Jingming's internal energy became overwhelmingly abundant,

it could be released through the interplay of yin and yang.

This essence, infused with medicinal power,

brought considerable benefits to both Lin Qianxue and Yueying.

Five days later.

On Island No. 1, in the cultivation chamber,

Xu Jingming sat cross-legged, his body surrounded by swirling primordial energy.

This was an anomaly formed by excess energy overflow from overconsumption of resources.

"I really don't get it.

With your talent, you'll break through to the Immortal Stage in at most a hundred years, or as soon as ten.

Why rush so desperately?

Even if you break through now,

you'll still need far more time later to fix the flaws—why bother?

Even our demon race's fastest realm-boosting heretical methods aren't this insane."

The succubus little girl Vela's soul form floated in midair.

She propped her chin on her hand, her adorable face filled with confusion.

"Not understanding is exactly right.

If you could understand, wouldn't you have the same breakthrough speed as me?"

Xu Jingming grinned, then pulled out another Jade Marrow Heavenly Peach.

This was today's second one.

The fruit, marked with golden-red veins, emitted a tempting, fragrant aroma.

He bit into it; sweet juice instantly flooded his mouth.

Vast energy surged into his limbs and organs as a warm current.

At the same time, Xu Jingming opened the Deep Blue System.

He observed the changes on the interface.

Soon after, the long-dormant pale blue system panel—

beside the level field, a faint golden "+" symbol quietly appeared!

【LEVEL】: Cosmic Apex (+)

"Finally arrived!"

Xu Jingming's heart leapt violently, surging with uncontrollable excitement.

He had waited for this moment too long!

Without the slightest hesitation, he focused his will.

He slammed his intent down upon that golden plus sign!

Source Point - 3 Billion!

Cosmic Apex → Immortal Stage One!

Boom—!!!

As if a dam had burst, energy accumulated to its peak exploded utterly at this instant!

Brilliant Lei Guang erupted from all around Xu Jingming.

Pitch-black lightning arcs writhed like dragons and serpents, instantly filling the entire cultivation chamber!

This was only the beginning!

The next moment,

An even vaster, more terrifying fluctuation surged upward from him!

Crack—!!!

Above Yongzhou Archipelago, the previously clear sky suddenly darkened!

Vast shadows of the Law Sea descended from the depths of emptiness.

This time, its scale was dozens of times greater than when Lin Qianxue had broken through!

It covered fully half the sky above Starfall Academy!

To the left, the aura of Destruction Origin made countless lives tremble in soul.

To the right, a dazzling, pitch-black Lei Hai intertwined with endless birth and death.

The Lightning Origin roared, proclaiming supreme majesty.

The two vast Law Seas interwove, collided, and resonated.

The celestial phenomenon they triggered shook every corner of the academy!

"What's going on?! Has a student broken through to Immortal Stage?!"

"This commotion is too terrifying!?"

"Look! That direction is Island No. 1 of Yongzhou Archipelago! Could it be Xu Jingming?!"

"My god! It really is him! He broke through already?!"

"......"

On Yongzhou Archipelago,

Streams of light shot up from every island, gazing toward Island No. 1 with stunned uncertainty.

Even atop Tianfeng Mountain, powerful divine senses swept over.

"Such a spectacle! Undoubtedly a top-tier Divine Body!"

"No, perhaps more than that—this scale of Law Sea far exceeds ordinary top-tier Divine Bodies."

"Could it be a Perfect Divine Body?! But no one's heard Xu Jingming is a Special Lifeform!"

A tutor whispered in astonishment, voice filled with disbelief.

Perfect Divine Body!

That was the supreme Divine Body, formed only by elevating life gene layers to 1024 times.

Throughout Starfall Academy's history, only students who were Special Lifeforms had ever formed it.

No human had ever been granted such a fate.

And now, above Island No. 1,

Xu Jingming hovered at the center of Lei Guang, eyes closed, sensing his body's transformation.

The Law Sea poured down endless Origin power.

Washing over every inch of his flesh, bones, and meridians.

Pain?

No, not only was there no pain.

On the contrary, there was an indescribable sense of comfort.

As if a parched earth welcomed sweet rain, every cell rejoiced and evolved.

His skin glowed with the luster of jade.

His bones shimmered with crystalline lightning patterns; his blood flowed with fine electric currents.

His mortal form was transforming into a higher life state—Divine Body!

And not just any Divine Body—flawless, Perfect Divine Body!

Simultaneously, endless Lightning and Destruction Law insights flooded his mind like a burst dam.

All past confusions in his cultivation instantly cleared.

"So that's how it is."

Xu Jingming smiled.

At the same time, the Law Sea descending from outside boiled!

Lightning Origin and Destruction Origin power, ten times more magnificent and pure than when Lin Qianxue broke through.

Formed two brilliant light columns that ignored all obstacles and poured directly into his crown.

"Ughhh—!"

Xu Jingming couldn't help letting out a low roar.

It was not pain, but an ultimate fullness and transcendence!

At his third eye, a brilliant Lei Guang and a profound black radiance ignited simultaneously.

Slowly intertwining, they finally coalesced into a complex and majestic mark.

Resembling intertwined lightning and the Eye of Annihilation!

The Lightning Origin and the Annihilation Origin both received cosmic recognition!

Dual Origin Recognition!

Boom!!!

At the very moment the last trace of flesh and blood was fully transformed into divine body energy.

The aura erupting from Xu Jingming reached its peak!

A force far grander and more vast than an ordinary Eternal Life Stage One surged outward.

Instantly racing toward the sky, it spread across the entire Eternal Day Archipelago.

In the sky, the dual-law sea slowly dissipated, as if fulfilling its purpose.

The starlight once again poured down.

But in every heart, the awe-inspiring spectacle just witnessed was deeply imprinted.

Xu Jingming, breakthrough achieved!

Eternal Divine Being, accomplished!

And upon breakthrough, he gained Dual Origin Recognition!

He forged a perfect divine body never seen before!

PS: Xiao Ming has successfully broken through to the Eternal Stage! Entering a broader world—begging for free gifts, thank you, great masters~~
