Martial World's
Ch 838 - Silver Battle Spirit

The body transformation continued for another hour. With a series of cracking sounds, the Heaven God Bone God and the sea serpent crystal shattered into powder. All the various energies were twisted together, completely blowing up the tower where the seclusion room was inside!
Dust and smoke were rising from all over. When the flying stones finally settled down, Lin Ming's seclusion chamber was completely revealed before the eyes of all the spectators, leaving only the Sky Lock Array in the vicinity.
The entire sky was filled with endless thunder. And in the array formation, everything had turned into a brilliant sea of gold.
All of the martial artists directed their gazes to the Sky Lock Array. Most of them could not see through the light burning inside.
However, some martial artists with high cultivation were able to clearly see what was happening inside. They're all dumbfounded.
What the hell is going on?
As the faces of these high cultivating martial artists twisted with strange expressions, the other martial artists impatiently asked them, "What is that?"
"Lin Lanjian .. has disappeared!"
"What !?" This observation left all the martial artists stricken, "He disappeared !?"
“Nothing is left behind. There were no bones, no blood mist, within that array formation there was only some sort of golden energy! "
Normally, when a martial artist passed Life Destruction, the first three stages were bodily calamities. Their bodies would disintegrate and then change from their basic essence, creating a new flesh and blood spirit body of true essence.
When the body decomposes, this does not mean that everything will rot. There are vital body parts left. For example, the brain, spine, skeleton, and for martial artists that had unstable foundations, even the heart, lungs, and some other major internal organs would remain.
Without a doubt, the more a person's body was damaged, the more dangerous it became!
Especially the brain and spine; it was related to the soul of martial artists and where their spiritual sea was located. The structure and relationships between these structures are complex. Once one of them is damaged, it will be very difficult to repair. No matter how talented a martial artist was, when they passed Life Destruction, their brains would always be protected by energy so they were not affected by the burst of energy.
Otherwise, it would be very easy to damage one's spiritual sea, or it could even result in instant death.
Even when the body decomposes, it does not disappear. Instead, it shattered into a rain of blood that fused with their own energy, imprisoning all of this in a small area. This energy would provide an outline of a formation for souls and new creatures would be born in this primordial soup of life.
This soup of ancient life is similar to the amniotic fluid in the womb of a mother. From afar, it actually looked like a deep red blood mist.
But in Lin Ming's seclusion room, his head and bones all disappeared, leaving nothing but endless golden energy. Everything else has vanished!
If this situation were to happen to other martial artists then it would mean one thing; there was something wrong in their Life Destruction process and their bodies were completely destroyed, not even leaving behind ashes!
"Lin Lanjian died ..." The Revolving Core realm martial artist swallowed, speculating that a ridiculous turn of events had occurred.
"No way!"
"It's a far too big a joke!"
Everyone made this conclusion in their minds. Even if they find this hard to believe, the facts are placed in front of them.
The rare number one immortal talent Lin Lanjian, who had reached rank 280 on the Decree of Destiny only with the late Revolving Core cultivation and also obtained the title of 'God of Death', had already reached the rank of 280', completely dead while passing through the first stage of Life Destruction!
This is the biggest joke in the world!
“Since ancient times, even Emperor-level talents have fallen from the sky. They could die in the mystic realm, in life or death fighting with others, or could even be killed by other great powers. But who had heard of this cause of death, dying while passing through the first stage of Life Destruction? This is too weird! "
"Is the Asura Heavenly Kingdom secretly plotting something? Why did Lin Lanjian fail Life Destruction? "
"Don't be silly. The Forsaken God Clan was not an idiot. Do you see the huge array above the Elders Palace? It is said that the array is called the Sky Lock Array and is passed down from ancient times. It could defend against the attacks of even the Heavenly Sea Great Elder. Then again, do you think that the Asura Heavenly Kingdom is really afraid of Lin Lanjian? If they sent some masters that they had hidden then defeating Lin Lanjian would not be difficult at all! "
Most of the martial artists present only felt this uncertain. But they were also unable to find any other explanation for what was happening in front of them.
Shibai had always been hiding on the edge to ensure that no one was bothering Lin Ming as he passed Life Destruction. The energy within the Sky Lock Array was too wild and tyrannical. Even though Shibai had broken through to the heavenly Sea, he still could not stay inside. After all, he was not the Eightfall Thunder Emperor.
As Shibai looked at the sea of golden energy, his expression remained calm. This was because he could feel the flames of Lin Ming's life still burning with incomparable effervescence.
Lin Ming did not encounter any problems nor did his body disappear. He had actually turned into an energy source body, perfectly fusing with that golden lightning and becoming one!
For an ordinary martial artist, their flesh and blood would turn into an ancient life soup. After being baptized with energy they will then reshape their bodies. During this time there will always be an incomplete part of their transformation. For example, large pieces of meat, body fluids that have clumped and so on.
And there is no need to mention the disintegration of their brains or spine; they are completely untouched by transformative energy.
A relatively poor Life Destruction martial artist might have a 60% spirit body, whereas an unrivalled talent might have a 90% spirit body%. It was already the highest peak.
Once they reached a higher boundary, this mortal body part would become an obstacle for a martial artist. When they fight, this part of the body will become a weakness!
In the Sky Spill Continent, no one could do what Lin Ming could. With the support of the Heretical God Sprout, he completely fused his body with energy even as he angered every cell with the power of thunder!
Even his soul and will experience the baptism of thunder.
At this moment, within the sea of golden energy, the battle spirit in Lin Ming's spiritual sea was also resistant to thunder.
Although Lin Ming's physical body had already melted, his consciousness was very clear. He could precisely see the movement of energy in the golden sea as well as feel all of his cells exchanging energy with his surroundings.
At that moment, Lin Ming felt as if he was standing in a higher world above the human world, aloof and arrogant with the fate all grasped in his hands.
Ordinary, calm, and without the slightest bit of emotion; this was the perspective of a heavenly god.
'Did the life of the energy body approach the heavenly god? Or was the heavenly god similar to the type of existence of an energy body? '
A thought inexplicably flashed through Lin Ming's mind. The so-called heavenly deity must be an existence close to the peak of martial arts, or perhaps an unparalleled powerhouse that had tracked its peak. For example, the 'Evil God' who had created the Heretical God Force.
But what the peak of martial arts was like, he had no idea what the concept was like. He could only guess what might happen after reaching that step. Was his body then really a source of energy?
As Lin Ming was thinking about these things, he suddenly felt a burst of piercing pain from the depths of his soul.
The battle spirit trembled violently, as if something was trying to break free from it!
'mm? Could this be ... battle spirit flourished !? '
When a martial artist first comprehended their battle spirit, after successfully forming it, they could only let it grow on its own. The earlier one comprehended battle spirits, the more potential it was to grow their battle spirit. This was because every time the cultivation of martial artists increased, this would subtly manifest a change in their battle spirit.
Now that Lin Ming was passing through Life Destruction, his fighting spirit would take a step forward!
Lin Ming naturally could not miss this opportunity. With a thought, the seal on the heavily protected fifth jade box began to unravel.
The moment the seal came off, the wood spirit jade box immediately shattered into nothing. All that was left was the contents of the box, an extremely clear and vibrant purple crystal the size of a fist, along with a few small shards around it.
This is the Twinlife Thunder Crystal!
As the ship where the Thunder Source was breeding, the Twinlife Thunder Crystal only appeared once every several hundred million years or even billions of years. Even within the Realm of the Gods, such treasures could only be found through fate.
By concentrating the power of his will, the Twinlife Thunder Crystal floated in the air as it began to melt together with Lin Ming's spear-shaped battle spirit.
The peng!
The Twinlife Thunder Crystal completely shattered, turning into countless translucent purple crystal shards that glittered with a bright luminosity. These fragments were evenly spread throughout the spear-shaped battle spirit.
At that moment, the energy that surpassed description suddenly erupted like a volcano. On top of Lin Ming's spear-shaped battle spirit, countless purple Dao patterns began to appear!
When these Dao patterns shone and rippled, they looked incomparable mystical, as if they contained the Source Law and the charm of the Great Dao. Compared to the chaos stone carvings, they arrived at the same result from different paths!
The reason why the Twinlife Thunder Crystal was able to temper the will was because it had existed for billions of years, bearing witness to infinite changes during the endless years of the universe. Little by little, the thunder energy carved itself into the Twinlife Thunder Crystal, reflecting and manifesting the most important changes in energy.
And once this change was carved into a battle spirit, the source energy would merge together with the battle spirit and soften the will.
The soul tearing pain caused Lin Ming's consciousness to suddenly tremble. The energy body containing his life flame shook violently as it was sealed within the array formation. In such a situation, once Lin Ming lost consciousness he would immediately lose control of his energy body and disperse. At that moment, there was nothing left of him.
The pain of the soul is far more unbearable than the pain of the flesh. But Lin Ming had practiced martial arts for many years now, and especially with the experience of absorbing soul fragments from the Magic Cube, he had experienced painful soul pain several times. Now, his determination and mental resilience were already as hard as iron.
He stubbornly defended his mind, pouring the endless energy essence surrounding him into the battle spirit, letting the purple Dao patterns freely wrap around him and letting him endure the baptism of the Great Dao attraction.
Dao patterns were destroyed and created, washing through every inch of Lin Ming's battle spirit. Slowly, the spear-shaped battle spirit elongated and became increasingly dense. After a quarter of an hour, the bronze color began to fade, revealing a touch of silver white light!
Although this radiance was weak, Lin Ming was stunned the moment he saw it!
The silver fighting spirit!
By passing through Life Destruction and in addition to the baptism of the Twinlife Thunder Crystal, his battle spirit had unexpectedly passed through bronze perfection and stepped straight into the silver level!
The bronze battle spirit and silver battle spirit were separated by a huge boundary. Lin Ming had originally estimated he would have to pass through three or four stages of Life Destruction before being able to pass through. He had never imagined that with the help of the Twinlife Thunder Crystal, he would be able to break through that barrier only at the first stage of Life Destruction!
The battle spirit trembled. The silver brilliance was like the cold light of the moon falling to the earth. At that moment, the spear-shaped battle spirit seemed to fuse into a void, turning this part of the world into an eternal and eternal existence.
