Chapter 1656: Became a Pretty Boy

The Nascent Soul stage's seal release condition is quite simple; just avoid fighting for two months, and it's done—no harder than eating and drinking.

Xiao Feng remained in the castle, going nowhere, quietly cultivating.

When the previous stage's trait was unlocked, he obtained a large amount of potential points.

From level 251 to the current 701, each level-up gave potential points that were 10 times higher, meaning his total potential became 11 times that of an ordinary person.

Levels 251–300 grant 100 free potential points per level-up; 301–500 grant 200 points; 501–701 grant a steady 400 points.

These points, when the trait was obtained, were directly given to Xiao Fan, causing his potential points to instantly surge by over one million!

He allocated all of these potential points without exception to his intellect.

Although he now has no equipment, relying on his own potential and various title bonuses, his total intellect points have reached an astonishing 1,847,765.

These intellect points, after being refined by the two great laws' body-tempering effect, turned into a massive amount of divine origin power.

Now, with no equipment on him, his divine origin power is 1.869 billion; converted to attack power, that equals 186.9 billion.

Compared to when he was fully equipped before, this is more than ten times higher!

Of course, this isn't the most impressive part.

The most impressive part is……these potential points will accompany him through reincarnation and retraining; when he reaches level 999, clears his level, and returns to the novice village to start over, they will be retained.

Then, after cultivating once more, he gains another 11-fold potential points……meaning his free potential points are 22 times those of others!

Just this single trait alone is comparable to a sixth-rank talent.

The might of the Innate Dao Body is evident!

Time flowed slowly.

After the day Chen Jie visited, Xiao Feng felt that everything around him seemed to have undergone subtle changes.

He couldn't put his finger on what the feeling was; it was as if……no one was paying attention to him anymore.

He thought, perhaps the Lord of Time had been secretly watching him all along, tracking his path of growth.

Now she has let go, no longer caring; with one less pair of the Dao Ancestor's eyes upon him, he thus feels something.

Unbeknownst to him, another 12 days passed.

Xiao Feng daily cultivated, sought enlightenment, honed his will, and farmed; he went nowhere, concerned himself with nothing, and did not participate in any battle.

That day, the Nascent Soul stage's trait unlock condition was fulfilled.

【Ding~ You have completed the 'Innate Dao Body' third-stage seal release mission; physique traits activated!】

At the same time, a new stage's seal release mission appeared.

【Innate Dao Body】

Description: The foremost of the Myriad Heavens' eight miraculous physiques, the strongest battle body; when cultivated to perfection, one can obtain inconceivable power.

Unlock progress: third stage

Current effect: extra damage reduction 99.9%; HP and MP limits increased 10x; free potential points gained on level-up increased 10x; ignores realm suppression from a 1000-level difference.

Next stage: Spirit Transformation (trait: all damage increased 10x)

Unlock condition: level 500, consume 100 different types of rank-5 or higher heavenly earthly spirit essence (not taken; after gathering, use the Innate Dao Body to consume).

After seeing this new trait, Xiao Feng blinked slightly.

"Tenfold damage, a hundredfold crit, plus tenfold skill effect……isn't this just a pirated 'Divine Might'?"

He currently has Yun Shangyan's tenfold skill effect and Xiao Fasshen's hundredfold crit as two talents; the next-stage effect of the Innate Dao Body, shown on the attribute panel, would appear as "Damage Increased 1000%".

The three effects stack, and the surface effect is exactly a ten-thousandfold damage increase.

Although the shield skill only has a tenfold effect, the output power is already not inferior to before.

Furthermore, with his recent substantial attribute boost, in actual combat, even a casual Secret Art could rival the full-powered burst strike from his previous equipment.

"A hundred different rank-5 spirit essences shouldn't be difficult."

The mission to unlock the new trait merely looks costly, but for someone of his stature, there is no real difficulty.

Coincidentally, Qing Feng Yuyu came over to keep him company, so Xiao Feng said to Qing Feng Yuyu: "Yu'er, if you have time, help me scavenge the trade market; I need a hundred different rank-5 spirit essences, any effect will do, as long as they are rank-5 spirit essences."

"Mm, okay. Rank-5 is high, but now there are many Main Gods; it should be easy to obtain, I can finish it within three days. Why do you suddenly need spirit essences?" Qing Feng Yuyu answered obediently.

Xiao Feng replied: "It's the consumption needed for cultivating the physique; don't rush, just gather slowly. By the way, are spirit stones still sufficient?"

Qing Feng Yuyu nodded: "Of course it's enough; you probably have no idea how wealthy you are now~"

"Oh? How so?" Xiao Feng said intriguingly, pulling her into his embrace.

Qing Feng Yuyu let him have his way, counting on her fingers: "Your Ning'er is the State Lord; over these years the Heavenly Dao Divine Kingdom has developed well, with available funds of about 10 trillion spirit stones. Your Little Angel, Little Dragon Girl, Wind Goddess, Little Wealth God, Witch Sister, War God Sister……each holds a Mi Jing management permit; public tax revenue profits average over five million per person per day. I and Miao Jie, Dun Dun the little lass, also earn tens of millions daily from the guild and Mi Jing; plus war loot and wild battle spoils, it's simply impossible to calculate."

"Uh..."

Xiao Feng turned his thoughts over, roughly estimated, and indeed felt that the spirit stones were inexhaustible.

He laughed: "Looks like I can now relax and live off soft food; with you supporting me, I'll never need to strive again."

Qing Feng Yuyu smiled alluringly: "No way, effort is still required. My Xiao Bai Lian, now it's time to serve the wealthy ladies~"

"Yes, sir!"

Xiao Feng laughed loudly, casually tore, and the red skirt turned into a flurry of butterflies.

Inside the castle rose cries of delight, playful noises, which after a while turned into panting.

The fortunate cat Xing Yun Miao and Jiang Ning, who accompanied him in cultivation, were also drawn in; a Xiao Bai Lian serving three wealthy ladies, striving for a livelihood.

The diligent young man labored conscientiously, never daring to rest a moment; after finishing one task he rushed to another, and to do more, he even split himself into several people working simultaneously.

Through relentless effort, he finally made the female bosses overflow, earning their praise.

Days flew by.

After over two months of recuperation, Xiao Feng had already buried the matter of Xun Shuang in his heart.

He reappeared before the world once more.

At this point, the real world was already a new year; since the server launch day, a full ten months had passed.

Calculating by the time of Zhu Shen Da Lu and Shen Jie, it's already the second quarter of the eighth year since the server opened.

Now over 6 million war zones have fully entered the Era of the Myriad Heavens, the hegemony battle is in full swing, and every day there are at least several hundred announcements of civilization lords being taken down.

After Xiao Feng last helped Han Zichen in battle, he remained silent for three months before finally appearing again.

This day, Qing Feng Yan Yu sent him 100 different types of 5th-grade spirit essence.

He is about to undergo the fourth transformation of his Innate Dao Body!
