Transformation successful, 900,000 jin of power.

"Finally matured!"

Xiao Yun's face immediately filled with excitement. Once he refined this Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum, his power would increase by another 100,000 jin.

At that time, with a total power of 900,000 jin, would he still need to fear Li Chengdi?

"Senior Brother Xiao, hurry and harvest it. Master has told me that if the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum is not harvested in time, it will gradually dissipate into the heavens and earth," Tang Yunyun reminded anxiously from the side.

Xiao Yun smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, it will take another week before it slowly disappears."

Although he said that, Xiao Yun immediately reached out and harvested the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum, holding it in his palm.

This Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum was extremely huge, as big as a human head. It was translucent and had nine golden leaves, exuding a dazzling light.

"Senior Brother Xiao, quickly refine the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum. I'll stand guard for you!" Tang Yunyun said, then began to wander around nearby. Once she noticed someone approaching, she could shout to remind Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun immediately sat cross-legged and began to ingest the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum. Although it was large in size, it melted instantly upon entering his mouth, giving a cool and refreshing sensation that energized his entire being.

Soon, Xiao Yun felt a surging life essence rushing through his body, nourishing his physical body and causing his skin to emit a radiant glow.

"Indeed, it truly deserves to be a precious treasure!"

Xiao Yun started to operate his cultivation technique, fully absorbing and refining this majestic life essence. For a moment, his entire body was enveloped in myriad rays of light and mist, illuminating the entire forest as if it were daytime.

Streams of green life essence began to emerge from Xiao Yun's pores, entwining around his body, completely enveloping him.

At this moment, Xiao Yun felt warmth spreading throughout his entire body, bringing unparalleled comfort. His organs, flesh, bones, and even his blood, all seemed to be undergoing a transformation and elevation, continuously improving.

The life essence of the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum was truly immense. Xiao Yun spent half a day absorbing it, and even until midnight, his body continued to emit a radiant glow, constantly evolving and growing stronger.

Another hour passed, and when all the life essence of the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum was absorbed by Xiao Yun, a golden divine flame emerged from his body, burning his flesh as if he were being reborn in flames.

Xiao Yun endured the torment of his physical body. He knew that this was a crucial moment for his transformation. If a mortal body wanted to catch up to those with special constitutions, it was impossible without undergoing trials and tribulations.

The blazing divine flame roasted Xiao Yun's physical body, destroying his old body and forging a new one. If he hadn't absorbed the immense life essence of the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum before, his physical body would have long been incinerated by the divine flame.

With the assistance of the massive life essence of the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma lucidum, Xiao Yun's physical body could withstand the refinement of the divine flame, enhancing his life essence and allowing his physical body to evolve to a higher level.

Gradually, golden rays of light emanated from Xiao Yun's flesh and bones, permeating even his external body, merging him with the golden divine flame.

The next morning.

The forest was covered in the glow of the morning sun. Dewdrops sparkled on the leaves and flowers nearby, reflecting a crystal-clear radiance, like exquisite transparent pearls. The gentle breeze carried fresh air.

Xiao Yun slowly opened his eyes. He discovered that his physical body had become even stronger than before, and he had even grown a little taller.

Within him surged an incredibly powerful force, like a roaring river or a surging torrent, ready to erupt.

Every cell in his body seemed to contain immense energy. His entire physique felt as if it had undergone countless trials and tribulations.

This was a rebirth through baptism by fire, akin to the legendary phoenix's rebirth from the ashes, allowing Xiao Yun's physical body to transform once again.

The last time such a transformation occurred was when he forged the embryonic form of the Primordial Chaos Body.

At this moment, he already possessed a strength of 900,000 jin, approaching the limit of one million jin.

"With such power, who in this Dragon Vein Nest can be my opponent?" A brilliant light gleamed in Xiao Yun's eyes as he exuded an extraordinary confidence and dominance.

"Phew!" Tang Yunyun sensed that Xiao Yun had finished his cultivation and swiftly flew over from a distance.

Xiao Yun smiled at Tang Yunyun and said, "Thank you, Junior Sister Tang, for standing guard for me!"

"Senior Brother Xiao, you're too polite. By the way, how do you feel now?" Tang Yunyun waved her hand dismissively, then blinked her eyes curiously, staring at Xiao Yun with great interest. She wanted to know what changes had occurred in Xiao Yun.

However, Xiao Yun concealed all his aura, and with Tang Yunyun's limited strength, she couldn't perceive anything.

"I feel better than ever now!" Xiao Yun grinned and waved his hand. "Let's go. We'll continue to the core of the Dragon Vein Nest!"

Tang Yunyun nodded, and the two of them set off once again, heading towards the core of the Dragon Vein Nest.

In less than half a day, they arrived at the core of the Dragon Vein Nest. There was a faintly audible commotion not far away, catching their attention.

"Senior Brother Xiao, it seems like there are many people over there. Should we go and take a look?" Tang Yunyun listened for a moment and asked Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment and replied, "Let's go and see. If there's any treasure, we can grab it for ourselves."

Tang Yunyun couldn't help but feel speechless. This Senior Brother of hers was indeed confident. But come to think of it, the treasures inside the Dragon Vein Nest were ownerless, and since Xiao Yun had the strength, he could indeed seize them.

Might makes right, and survival of the fittest was the law in this place.

...

In the lush forest, a river of emerald green water flowed into the distance. Beside the river grew a small tree, only about the height of a person, but its trunk was sturdy and exuded an ancient and profound aura.

The branches and leaves of this small tree were incredibly lush, with several white flowers among them. But what piqued curiosity was that it bore only one fruit, golden and emitting a faint golden radiance, exceptionally dazzling.

This golden fruit was clearly extraordinary at first glance.

In the distance, some young cultivators stared at the golden fruit with greed on their faces, but none dared to pluck it.

Because standing near the small tree were three figures facing each other in a triangle formation. They were Li Chengdi, who possessed the Temporal Body, Jiang Haoran, who possessed the Divine King Body, and Zhao Wujin, who possessed the Primal Ancient Holy Body.

The three exceptional geniuses stood there, and no one dared to approach the tree and attempt to seize the treasure before them.

"Oh my god, that's the Bodhi Tree, the legendary divine tree."

"It is said that the Bodhi Tree blooms and bears fruit for a thousand years. When the flowers fall, the fruit ripens. This fruit is called the Bodhi Fruit, and consuming it can instantly bring about enlightenment. It is one of the ten great treasures of the world, and even Saints and quasi-emperors would go crazy for it."

"If this treasure is taken out, it could be exchanged for a Holy Weapon."

"Li Chengdi, Jiang Haoran, and Zhao Wujin are all here. I wonder who among them will obtain this Bodhi Fruit."

...

As Xiao Yun and Tang Yunyun hurried over, they heard the discussions of the people around them.
