Chapter 1581: Transforming Together
Huh? This place is……Big Brother!
Da Bai suddenly discovered he had been summoned, and after taking in his surroundings, he let out a sound of surprise.
Then he complained angrily: "Damn it! I had just finished preparing for my transformation, and was about to model myself after Fairy Maiden Xun Shuang to become the second most beautiful in Kyushu… Ow, big brother, why did you hit me?"
Xiao Feng punched it from afar and calmly said, "Turn into a male."
I won't!
Huh? You don't want to go along with it, do you?
Waa waa waa……What's wrong with wanting to be a fairy maiden? Big brother, you're so domineering, waa waa waa~
Da Bai, feeling wronged, tucked his wings and pretended to cry there.
Xiao Feng remained unmoved, calmly saying, "Hurry up and stop dawdling—turn into a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy; that fits your status."
"What is my status?" Da Bai asked, puzzled.
Xiao Feng said, "Little brother, lackey, toady, idiot……"
Stop stop stop stop stop!
Da Bai wanted to hit someone upon hearing that, but alas he hadn't yet transformed to have hands.
"Male it is, then—I'll become more handsome than you, more charming, and then steal your…… Don't hit me! I was wrong! I'll turn into a little boy!" Da Bai still wanted to talk back, but seeing Xiao Feng draw his crimson magic sword, he immediately wilted.
"Hurry up!" Xiao Feng urged impatiently.
I know, I know……
Da Bai, feeling wronged, folded his wings, bent his long legs, and shrank into a ball on the spot.
Xiao Feng was at the crucial moment of contemplating the Dao of Myriad Forms' transformations; without hesitation, he fully extended his senses, focusing on every minute change in Da Bai's body.
Spirit beasts can transform only once in their lifetime; once a form is chosen, it will never change again.
The human form is most suitable for cultivation, so most spirit beasts, after transforming, prefer to keep a human appearance while training.
Only after breaking through to become a Venerable, reaching the limit of cultivation, will they discard the human form and return to their true shape.
Thus, the God Kings and Primordial God-level beings of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield often appear in human form, or something close to it.
Da Bai is a high-tier spirit beast; he transforms early, allowing him to cultivate in human form ahead of time, without needing to wait for the God King Realm.
At this moment, a mysterious power enveloped it, as if some kind of Dao rhythm had descended.
The method of spirit beast transformation is an innate talent bestowed by heaven; it requires no comprehension of any great Dao—once the realm is sufficient, it happens naturally.
What Xiao Feng wanted to observe was exactly how this process unfolds.
Under the shroud of that mysterious Dao rhythm, Da Bai's body gradually shrank.
At level 500, its standing height exceeded twenty meters—several stories tall—and its wingspan, when spread, was more than twice that of a large passenger aircraft.
The feathers on its body were so fine that even the tiniest down was as long as a human's half‑leg, and the white feathers on its wings were as huge as palm‑tree leaves.
Yet during the transformation process, its entire body gradually shrank, like ice and snow meeting the sun and slowly melting.
Xiao Feng clearly sensed that this process caused Da Bai no harm; its 'mass' remained the same, merely shedding its original biological structure as its form changed, shifting toward a human shape.
In less than half an hour, Da Bai had shrunk to a white bird‑egg less than two meters tall.
The eggshell was formed from condensed divine power, somewhat like when it underwent embryonic rebirth, but the nature of its spiritual power was different.
Inside the shell, the immortal crane's body had completely dissolved, turning into a pure primordial essence that rebuilt the form.
Xiao Feng kept watching this process, seeing Da Bai's primordial essence gradually shape a human body, and a certain insight arose in his heart.
"Transformation isn't merely changing the physical form; it's creating a new substance. Da Bai may look human, but it is actually unlike any human—its flesh and blood are a symbol unique to it."
This change has already surpassed what ordinary reason can explain.
If one had to give it a definition, it would be……creation.
This is not the Dao of All Things, but the Grand Dao of Creation!
Xiao Feng couldn't help but recall the record in the Ninefold Heavenly Dao.
The Nine Mysterious Venerable left guidance in this inheritance, telling later generations that the Heavenly Dao's transmission originally came from the Primordial World's Eight Primordial Ancestors, among whom was a powerful figure known as the Master of Creation.
Those Eight Primordial Ancestors were invincible overlords that existed since the birth of the Myriad Heavens; they must have been Dao Ancestor‑level powerhouses from the true world.
Who the Master of Creation is, Xiao Feng does not know.
But these two words happen to explain the evolution of many things in the Myriad Heavens World.
Creation……is actually the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao is a 'myriad‑Dao amalgamation,' containing endless laws such as time, space, fate, life and death, the five phases and yin‑yang.
The evolution of all things in the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Worlds is driven by the power of Creation.
This is even more complex than the simple Dao of All Things, and certainly cannot be comprehended in a short time.
"Alas, the more I understand, the smaller I feel. This heaven and earth, truly awe‑inspiring……"
Xiao Feng sighed in his heart.
His body dissolved into energy on the spot, and, along with the insight he gained from observing Da Bai's transformation, he too turned into a large egg.
Half an hour later, Da Bai's egg cracked with a 'crack,' splitting the wind system.
A soft‑white hand reached out from the eggshell, followed by another hand and slender arms.
The two seemingly weak arms pulled apart slightly, and the eggshell burst open.
A small head with long white hair poked out, glancing around timidly, afraid of being hit.
Seeing that Xiao Feng wasn't there and only a large egg lay before her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Although big brother's order is important, the temptation to become a girl is too great—sorry, big brother, I was wrong, and I'll dare to do it again next time!"
Da Bai, now in a girlish form, chirped softly, then kicked open the eggshell and stepped out.
She quickly condensed divine power into clothing to cover herself.
Then, with a backhand grip, divine power crushed the whole person‑sized eggshell into pure energy, which she swallowed and absorbed cleanly.
The eggshell vanished, a wisp of white light flickered away, and a simple crane-shaped rune imprint appeared on her forehead, emitting a silver glow that revealed her true identity.
After successfully transforming, Da Bai ran to the nearby small pond and looked at his reflection in the water.
Then he said satisfiedly: "Not bad, not bad, second in the Nine Provinces won't run! I, Da Bai… cough… no, I'm a Fairy Maiden now, I must speak elegantly!"
She cleared her throat, imitating the tone of Fairy Maiden Xun Shuang, and muttered to herself: "This breakthrough was no easy feat; I hope Fellow Daoist Xiao Feng will understand and not draw his sword on me."
She turned her head and saw Xiao Feng showing no movement at all, and couldn't help wondering: "What mischief is Fellow Daoist Xiao Feng up to? Does he also need to transform?"
No sooner had her words fallen than a crisp 'crack' sounded, and the crack in the egg that Xiao Feng had transformed into immediately split open.
A strand of nine-colored light burst forth from within.
The eggshell was burst open by the light, and inside appeared… a wild beast.
