Z continued to talk since he had nothing else to say, Hehe. Let me be honest with you, you should have realized after so long that I could no longer train to upgrade by myself.

Z knew Qin Feng had eyes on him. He did not really care. The moment he accepted Qin Fengs proposal, he knew that Qin Feng would eventually find out.

He continued with a grin, However, you wouldnt be able to kill me. I have the same biological structure as that of an Immortal. I wont grow old, I cant be exterminated, and I will exist forever.

Z raised his hand as he spoke. The skin around his wrist suddenly turned black. It twisted into a form of energy, which separated the palm from the forearm. The two parts remained connected by thin threads between them.

You are saying that this is the body of an Immortal? A storm rumbled in Qin Fengs mind.

Yes. You thought that I am inventing a potion that would only awaken the full potential of a human body? Thats not enough! I am trying to create an Immortal! Unfortunately, I am just a half-product!

Z revealed his weakness without any concern. He was a proud scientist, not a man chasing the peak of martial arts or ability. Thus, he spoke without constraint.

You have not seen an Immortal, so I understand your confusion. Me and my mentor were lucky to witness the power of an Immortal in the past. They are different beings from us. It is possibly the greatest evolution a human could ever achieve. They are beyond death and their invincible body could be deformed and reformed at will. Z said excitedly.

Using this as our starting point, my mentor and I have done a lot of research. Sadly, my biological structure could be turned into an Immortal, but my power wouldnt evolve after a certain level. I am still looking for the reason behind it. You are different. Your absorption is otherworldly, so your spirit would definitely be outstanding. I believe you are going to become an Immortal one day!

Qin Feng rejected him, I dont need the potion to become an Immortal.

No, you dont understand. It requires a thorough, irreversible transformation of your life form. I heard that periodically, the old Immortals would bring the SSS9-tier users to a sacred land to undergo the transformation ritual. Without the ritual, no one can evolve by themselves. Not you, not another human, not even other creatures! Its impossible without external stimulation!

Z said that confidently. Qin Feng suddenly remembered the Armored Star Broodmother that had exploded. Even something as powerful as it had died easily in the end. If the disintegration of cells was the so-called transformation ritual, then the broodmother had clearly failed the test.

What type of place then, could ensure the success of such a high-risk ritual?

This location must be under tight surveillance by the Eight Primes. There was no way he could outlive the Immortals, or discover the location without them knowing.

Qin Fengs biggest hurdle in becoming Immortal thus laid in Ahn Ping Prime.

Thats why I am going to create an immortal by myself. I am halfway there now, and you will be my other half.

Qin Feng sneered, You loathe me, and my other half is Bai Li.

Z was choked by Qin Fengs response. I am talking about the experiment!

Dont put your hope in me. I see that your experiment is advancing well. Perhaps you will master absorption one day. With your Immortals body, I believe the time will come soon.

Qin Feng knocked on the vessel a few times. He already had the answer. Though the path in front of him had become clearer now, he also understood the immense challenge he needed to face.

But that would not stop his determination. Qin Feng would rid anything or anyone trying to block his path.

Z stared at Qin Fengs back and felt helpless. Qin Feng had become even stronger than the last time they met. His life force was immeasurable now. Perhaps Qin Feng could indeed break through the barrier and reach Immortal rank by himself.

That would not help his experiment at all. Z was on his own after Qin Feng rejected him yet again. Unfortunately, the physique of an Immortal was a blessing and a curse at the same time. The near-perfect form meant that it was extremely difficult to be altered or strengthened through external stimuli.

Thats a shame, Z lamented.

***

After Qin Feng met Z, his troubled mind had been calmed considerably. He had no fear despite learning that Ahn Ping Prime was the biggest hindrance he would need to overcome.

Qin Feng trained intensively in the following days.

Fighting the Armored Star Broodmother had caused Qin Feng a huge loss. But it was nothing compared to his gain from the crusade.

Little by little, the eighty-meter Broodmothers core and the three-hundred-meter Immortals starglobe were absorbed by him.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Only one-third of pure power was retained from the two cores. It was distributed evenly to the nine frozen stars, boosting the power of the stars into one-hundred-meter diameters.

If I didnt get a glimpse of Ahn Pings powers and hear the story from Z, I would have thought that I am close to an Immortal now.

Qin Feng had gone to both inferior and superior realms. The former was normally a small planet with about a ten-meter radius, while the latter was like Bahamut and the Aether Realm.

The power he obtained was the latter group.

When an Immortal ceased to exist (God knows why), the internal world would expand into a realm. The core planet at the center of this realm was the so-called realm core. Humans generally regarded a one-hundred-meter radius as the separation between mortal and Immortal.

At the very least, all the SSS9-tier ability users cores were at most ninety meters. That was the widely known bottleneck.

However, Qin Feng came through and surpassed the boundary.

Biological structure Indeed, no matter how powerful my physique is, this flesh is still too fragile.

Qin Feng suppressed the swelling joy of achieving a great feat. He knew this was far from enough.

Though one of his nine frozen stars was already more powerful than most SSS9-tier ability users, his dark ability had weakened considerably.

I can defeat an SSS-tier easily now. Why dont I revisit the Bahamut realm again? Qin Feng was moved by this thought.

Though the Human Alliance had forbidden its members from going, the Dark Coalition was not constrained by the restriction order.

But before Qin Feng had made a decision, a message came through his communicator.

It was coming from the strongest elect from the Long familyLong Kong.

Marshal Qin, I bet its easy for you to take care of a few SS-tiers now? Long Kong asked rhetorically.

Qin Feng was surprised. Does he need my help?

Whats the matter? Qin Feng did not answer, implying that Long Kong was not wrong to suggest so.
