Chapter 712 217: Shen Bai Enters Void Transformation

Before his eyes, a cloud of smoke blurred, then floated in mid-air.

Once all the smoke had taken shape, it coalesced into a new line of text that appeared before Shen Bai.

[Infinite Divination Skill Lv. 6 (Calculation +32, Accuracy +32, Fortune and Misfortune +32, Detailed Calculation +32, Infinite +32, Stealing Fortune +32): 0/20000]

Shen Bai stared at the line of text, but before he could get a good look at the final Attribute, a blurry scene materialized before his eyes.

'Here we go again,' Shen Bai thought. 'Time to watch the phantom show off.'

Everything around him gradually became indiscernible, as if it had been covered by a thick layer of pixelation.

Once the blurry scenery faded, everything came back into focus.

As a clear scene materialized before him, Shen Bai found himself standing on a towering cliff.

A fierce wind howled atop the cliff, cutting into him like a knife and making his whole body ache.

The phantom stood at the edge of the cliff, his hands clasped behind him, presenting Shen Bai with a profound and inscrutable view of his back.

'Is he about to start showing off again?' Shen Bai wondered, stroking his chin.

Just as he had that thought, a low rumble of thunder suddenly tore through the once pristine blue sky.

In an instant, the clear blue sky vanished, blotted out by a dense mass of dark clouds.

Lightning flickered incessantly within them, making the storm clouds seem even more menacing.

CRACK!

Another low peal of thunder sounded as a bolt of lightning as thick as a barrel descended from the heavens, hurtling straight for the phantom.

The terrifying bolt of lightning was enough to make one's heart leap into their throat.

Yet, in the face of the lightning, the phantom simply raised his right hand.

An ethereal diagram of the Eight Trigrams materialized.

The diagram of the Eight Trigrams radiated a profound and inscrutable aura.

The powerful diagram began to spin, and the characters upon it lifted into the air.

For some unknown reason, the lightning bolt that had been hurtling straight for the phantom suddenly veered to the side.

The diverted bolt of lightning scorched the surrounding ground black, but it merely brushed past the phantom.

The phantom was left completely unscathed.

Then, more lightning bolts rained down from the sky, one after another.

Each bolt pulsed with an incredibly terrifying aura.

If one were to strike a person, it would instantly reduce them to ashes.

Yet this dense barrage of lightning bolts landed all around the phantom, always maintaining a certain distance, unable to harm him in the slightest.

"What's going on?"

Witnessing this scene, Shen Bai felt a flicker of curiosity.

But the phantom seemed to have no intention of explaining. Once the thunder gradually faded, the phantom waved his hand, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed completely.

At the same time, the azure sky and bright sun reappeared, and everything around him once again grew blurry.

Shen Bai knew in his heart that he was about to return from this magical place to his five-story building.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before the blurry scenery faded, and Shen Bai found himself back in his room.

...

As the smoke vanished, a massive amount of Information flooded into Shen Bai's mind.

Once Shen Bai absorbed all the Information, he had fully mastered the Level 6 Infinite Divination Skill.

"The power to steal fortune, immeasurable by Heaven and Earth."

A flicker of joy lit up Shen Bai's heart as new text appeared before his eyes.

Upon reaching Level 6, the Infinite Divination Skill gained a new Attribute: Stealing Fortune.

The previous Attributes had doubled, resulting in a terrifying boost, and this new Attribute, Stealing Fortune, was exactly what it sounded like—it could seize the fortune of others.

Although the effect was only temporary and not a permanent theft of fortune, this ability was extremely useful.

For example, during a fight, if his opponent was stronger, Shen Bai could use the Infinite Divination Skill to steal the other's fortune, up to the limit of his +32 bonus, and add it to his own.

The effect of this was very powerful.

To give a simple example, if an opponent was about to land a fatal blow, this ability could very well cause their attack to go awry.

In a life-or-death battle between experts, the slightest miscalculation can lead to an extraordinary change in the outcome.

Therefore, the Stealing Fortune Attribute could be incredibly effective in battle.

'Now, I can kill even an expert at the Celestial Spirit Realm Peak with ease,' Shen Bai thought.

As he was thinking this, the Qi within his body finally began to change.

The last Golden Bridge became completely suffused with gold. As his Qi flowed through it, Shen Bai felt as if an eggshell were cracking somewhere deep inside his body.

He then took a step forward, and his aura began to climb at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Shen Bai broke through the final barrier as easily as a flood bursting through a dam.

The Void Realm.

Shen Bai had finally broken through from the Unity Realm, successfully reaching the Void Realm.

The so-called Void Transformation referred to the Divine Soul undergoing a transformation into the void, entering a state of perfect unity.

The previous realms had already tempered the physical body to its absolute limit.

The exterior—muscles, bones, and skin—had been refined, as had the interior—the vital organs.

The Void Transformation, however, was a tempering of the Divine Soul.

A powerful Divine Soul allowed one to utilize Qi with greater intensity and unleash its full power.

The stronger the Divine Soul, the greater the power one could wield.

To break through from the Void Realm to the Celestial Spirit Realm, one had to temper their Divine Soul to its absolute limit before they could advance further.

Shen Bai closed his eyes and focused inward, discovering that at this moment, his Divine Soul had condensed into a humanoid form.

This was the hallmark of the Void Realm.

One used Qi to refine the Divine Soul; when the Divine Soul became a single, integrated whole, that would mark the beginning of the Celestial Spirit Realm.

"This power is incredible."
