Chapter 784 - 515: Two Contracted Immortal Beasts, Breaking Through to Tribulation Crossing Stage

"No!"

Just as the power of the flames was about to strike the Frost Demon Emperor, Luna stepped forward and blocked it with her own body.

BOOM—

With a violent explosion, Luna was sent flying by the forceful flame power, spitting blood in midair.

Yet the raging flames showed no signs of burning out; they continued to scorch her body relentlessly.

This scene even caught Lin Chang'sheng off guard.

Hearing the commotion, in the next instant, the Frost Demon Emperor's eyes snapped open, finding herself unharmed—while it was Luna who was gravely injured instead.

Not far away, Luna coughed up blood, her entire body wreathed in fierce flames, her pupils instantly widening in shock.

"Sister!"

For the first time in years, the Frost Demon Emperor called out words she had never spoken aloud.

Hearing this, Luna's heart was deeply moved. Even if she died like this, she had no regrets.

"Xiaoshuang, please, stop being so stubborn. Before Father left, he asked me to watch over you. Don't make Father and me die with regrets!"

Luna spoke slowly, blood still trickling from the corners of her mouth, impossible to stanch.

On Luna's abdomen, the Six Flames Sacred Fire kept burning through her flesh.

Even though thousand-year Profound Ice protected her, it was no use.

In the face of the Six Flames Sacred Fire, Profound Ice was utterly powerless.

"Fine, I'll do whatever you say. Just don't die—"

Only now did the Frost Demon Emperor realize how much Luna cared for her.

More than death, she feared losing Luna now.

In the past, the Frost Demon Emperor had never understood Luna's importance, even regarding her as nothing but a rival.

Because from childhood, their father's favorite had always been Luna, raising her as the rightful heir.

He had always neglected Luoshuang's existence.

Which led to Luoshuang desperately craving ultimate power since she was a child.

That alone planted the seed for her ambition to conquer the Human Race.

Who could've predicted that on the brink of life and death, Luna would lay down her life to save her?

It thawed the heart she'd kept frozen for so many years, letting her feel a trace of warmth at last.

"Please, save her! I'm willing to become your Contracted Beast. I'll do whatever you say!"

The Frost Demon Emperor gazed at Lin Chang'sheng, eyes brimming with desperate pleading.

Lin Chang'sheng hadn't anticipated the Six Flames Sacred Fire would be so terrifying—enough to devastate a late-stage Tribulation Crossing expert with a single blow.

He rushed forward, swiftly absorbing the flame power burning Luna's body.

But the flames had already burned to Luna's very core, and facing these mortal wounds, Lin Chang'sheng could only take an elixir from his storage bag and feed it to Luna. As the medicinal power spread, her wounds gradually stabilized, pulling her away from the edge of death.

"Once this contract is made, there's no going back—are you certain?"

Lin Chang'sheng asked.

"I will never regret it!"

The Frost Demon Emperor answered with unwavering resolve in her eyes.

Since the Frost Demon Emperor agreed to the contract, the rest was simple.

Lin Chang'sheng immediately activated the Divine Soul Contract Technique to seal the pact.

Miss this chance, and who knew how long he might have to wait for another?

Signing a contract with the Frost Demon Emperor was no easy feat.

Luckily, after several attempts, Lin Chang'sheng finally managed to establish the contract bridge between them.

As the soul bridge formed, Lin Chang'sheng discovered that he not only gained ten thousand years of life and a surge in cultivation,

"I actually obtained the Frost Demon Emperor's Myriad Years Profound Ice Armor?"

This was his greatest surprise—this armor was the Demon Emperor's ultimate defense.

Every single piece of Myriad Years Profound Ice could block any attack below the Immortal Realm. Even Immortal Realm experts would find it hard to break through.

Now with this power, it was nearly impossible for anyone below the Immortal Realm to kill him.

"Well worth the trip!"

Lin Chang'sheng was overjoyed.

Not only had he found Yan Zhen, but he had also acquired two contracted beasts of Immortal Realm level—truly a bountiful harvest.

"Hmm? Am I really about to break through?"

Lin Chang'sheng realized that after contracting with two Immortal Beasts, he was showing signs of a breakthrough.

Without further hesitation, he sat cross-legged on the ground to cultivate.

Once he reached the Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing, he could use the Divine Blood Transformation Technique to advance directly to the Middle Stage.

With the Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure in hand, even late-stage Tribulation Crossing masters would no longer threaten him.

Before breaking through, Lin Chang'sheng drew a drop of Divine Jade Spirit Marrow from his storage ring to boost his chances of crossing the tribulation stage.

As the spirit marrow entered his body, Lin Chang'sheng instantly felt weightless. Boundless spiritual energy erupted from within him.

As even more primordial power gathered inside, Lin Chang'sheng felt like his body was about to burst from the pressure.

Fortunately, his physique was tough enough; circulating his cultivation technique, he focused all the primordial power in one spot, charging at the bottleneck.

BOOM—

With a resounding impact, Lin Chang'sheng's mind roared with thunder.

The fierce shock made him involuntarily furrow his brow in pain.

Again and again, the surging force pounded his body, beads of sweat as large as beans appearing on his brow, soon drenching him from head to toe.

At this moment, dark clouds began churning across the sky, and flashes of silver lightning snaked through them again and again.

RUMBLE—RUMBLE—RUMBLE—

Up in the sky, the silver snakes twisted, muffled thunder rolling across the heavens.

"Is he about to break through?"

Candle Flame and the Frost Demon Emperor exchanged surprised looks.

This guy's talent is truly extraordinary!

At such a young age, he was already advancing to Tribulation Crossing—at this rate, he wouldn't need a thousand years to achieve an Immortal Body, perhaps even reaching a higher realm than they ever could.

With this thought, the Frost Demon Emperor actually felt a hint of gratitude.

At least she hadn't signed a contract with some useless member of the Human Race.

As time passed, the thunderclouds thickened, crushing together into a single vortex of immense divine thunder.

"Break!"

Lin Chang'sheng roared, pouring all the primordial power in his body toward the Hao Zhix barrier.

BOOM—

With another violent shock, a crack appeared in Hao Zhix.

Seizing the moment, Lin Chang'sheng gathered even more power and struck again.

BOOM—BOOM—BOOM—

Finally, the barrier of Tribulation Crossing shattered as if a dam had burst, primordial power flooding his flesh and bones like a raging torrent.

In that instant, every cell in Lin Chang'sheng's body opened wide, crazily devouring the primordial energy to replenish itself.

As his body absorbed the primordial force, Lin Chang'sheng felt supreme comfort, his exhausted limbs now overflowing with new strength.

CRACK—CRACK—CRACK—

His bones constantly transformed in the nourishment of primordial power, echoing with the harmonious ringing of sinew and bone.

Both his strength and the toughness of his body now far surpassed anything before—by many times over.

With his physical body's evolution, Lin Chang'sheng felt his power of divine soul soar as well.

His divine sense radius instantly expanded by another fifty thousand miles.

Now his divine sense covered a terrifying range of a hundred and fifty thousand miles.

This was already greater than the divine sense of a late Tribulation Crossing master by far.

"Not bad! My primordial power has increased over tenfold compared to late Mahayana!"

Lin Chang'sheng's heart leapt for joy.

But his breakthrough was not over yet. Just as he advanced, divine thunder rumbled again and again in the sky—then, without warning, crashed down toward him.

"Spread out!"

Candle Flame shouted softly, immediately retreating from the scene.

BOOM—

A giant pillar of divine thunder slammed into Lin Chang'sheng, shattering the earth beneath him as the power of thunder radiated out for hundreds of feet.

With the first bolt of celestial thunder came the second and third right after.

As one bolt after another crashed down, Lin Chang'sheng didn't feel any discomfort—instead, the impurities in his body were forced out by each divine thunder strike.

Each celestial thunder further refined his body.

The stronger his body, the more thunder he could withstand.

The more he endured, the greater the effect of this refinement.

The better the refinement, the faster his cultivation would be in the future.

All eighty-one bolts of thunder crashed down, leaving the ground where Lin Chang'sheng sat blackened and scorched.

Yet at the center, Lin Chang'sheng himself remained unscathed. On the contrary, his muscles had become even denser, every line and contour of his body sharply defined, brimming with explosive power.

"He's done it?"

Candle Flame, seeing the thunder have all fallen, could not help but marvel.

The spot where the thunder descended was now reduced to a wasteland.

As Demon Beasts, they too had to endure tribulation, but even they had never witnessed anything as terrifying as this.

All around Lin Chang'sheng, the earth had subsided several meters where the thunder blasted down, cracks like spider webs spreading out for hundreds of meters in every direction.
