Chapter 854 - 942: Half-Step Divinity Transformation

The Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower, about a zhang in size, floated above the coffin like a bed.

The two lay within the Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower, at the position where the stamen originally was.

Their bodies were both soaked in the surrounding green liquid.

Su Mengyan had already lost her reason, driven by the incapacity of her body, she crawled toward Chen Mo and entwined him.

However, Chen Mo was controlled by an illusory figure and could not move at all.

He could only watch as Su Mengyan tore off the robe from his body.

Then, a slender jade-like arm wrapped around his neck, and a delicate body like a boneless soft snake entwined his chest, a faint fragrance rushing to Chen Mo’s nostrils.

Boom!

Chen Mo, having drunk a lot of the green liquid, now with the soft jade in his arms, felt as if he were a fuse-lit explosive, causing his eyes to turn bright red, and the last remnant of reason completely dissipated.

The illusory figure, upon seeing this, also released the control over Chen Mo’s body.

Subsequently, driven by the instincts of his body, Chen Mo embraced Su Mengyan, flipping her beneath him.

As a knight, how could he be beneath someone else?

"Your current strength cannot fully absorb the energy of this Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower. I will seal this energy in your bodies separately. To achieve perfect absorption, you can resume the Yin Yang Dao practice in the future."

The illusory figure chuckled, thinking that even if the two did not like each other, under these circumstances, they could gradually cultivate affection.

Then, he closed the stone chamber’s door and pointed in the air at the Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower.

The already blooming Other Shore Flower, its nine-colored petals began to close, enveloping the two of them, sealing that strange sound within the flower bud.

After completing all this, the illusory figure nodded in satisfaction, laughed skyward, then his body gradually crumbled into numerous light spots, floating away.

With the disappearance of the illusory figure, the stone chamber quieted completely, only the giant Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower hovered, faintly revealing two blurry figures inside the petals.

...

On the other side.

After everyone entered the light screen, Yu Yuanshan, Li Meng, and Zuoqiu Yiren ceased their mutual confrontation, jointly smashing the skeleton into pieces.

Zuoqiu Yiren quickly seized the black ring the skeleton had worn and swiftly entered the light screen.

Seeing the ring seized by Zuoqiu Yiren, Yu Yuanshan and Li Meng were naturally unwilling and hurriedly chased after.

Amidst the chase.

Zuoqiu Yiren stopped in front of the stone mountain, frowned at the multiple pathways.

Meanwhile, Yu Yuanshan and Li Meng caught up, demanding Zuoqiu Yiren hand over the ring.

Zuoqiu Yiren was not afraid of the two.

Sensing Chen Mo’s presence in the stone mountain, she wanted to avoid entanglement with the two, planning to find Chen Mo first.

However, the two would not let Zuoqiu Yiren have her way.

They joined forces to block Zuoqiu Yiren outside the passage.

A great struggle ensued.

...

No one knew how much time passed.

In the silent stone chamber, the Nine-Colored Other Shore Flower was nowhere to be seen. Above the coffin, only two figures entwined tightly, suspended in slumber.

Half an hour later, fingers on their respective backs moved slightly.

As if sensing something amiss, the two abruptly opened their eyes.

In an instant, both gazes were blank.

The next second, both figures swiftly darted apart.

After Chen Mo landed agilely, the robe torn off by Su Mengyan midair was fully restored on his body. Upon landing, he wasted no time, and without a word, dashed toward the stone door.

When he saw the stone door was already closed, Chen Mo was stunned.

And in that moment of hesitation.

A silhouette, exuding a cold killing intent, appeared ghost-like behind Chen Mo, striking with a palm.

Chen Mo perceived this and turned to strike back with his palm.

"Boom!"

The two palms clashed violently, a powerful shockwave rippling outward.

Chen Mo’s expression changed as he realized Su Mengyan’s strength was far greater than before.

His throat felt sweet, and his body was violently flung back, crashing against the stone door, which swung open under his impact. To his surprise, it remained unbroken.

"Puh..." a mouthful of fresh blood spewed from Chen Mo.

Su Mengyan also stepped back several steps, clenching her fists, surprised at the power of her earlier strike.

She then carefully evaluated her realm, realizing she had reached Perfection in the Divinity Transformation Realm, just one step away from the Void Realm.

This filled Su Mengyan with joy; furthermore, she discovered a vast energy within her. If she could refine and absorb this energy, breaking through to the Void Realm would be a cinch.

However, alongside the joy, came bad news—her purity was gone.

She glanced at Chen Mo.

It was then she noticed that the plain and unremarkable man she had seen before was gone, replaced by an extraordinarily handsome man.

Su Mengyan was stunned: "Disguise?!"

Chen Mo had already stood up, wiped away the blood from his lips. Hearing Su Mengyan’s inexplicable question, he was startled, then as if understanding, he hurriedly took out a copper mirror from the Blood Pearl, upon seeing his original face reflected back at him.

He quickly examined his body in surprise: "Half-Step Divinity Transformation?!"

Indeed, he had progressed from Middle Stage Nascent Soul to Half-Step Divinity Transformation.

Directly skipping Late Stage Nascent Soul and Nascent Soul Perfection.

"Hiss..." He drew in a sharp breath; this was faster than riding a rocket!

Unprepared for the earlier encounter, he spat blood when Su Mengyan struck.

However, now...

"Do you want to continue?" Chen Mo moved his muscles and bones, ready to employ his trump cards if the situation continued.

Since he had revealed his true face, there was no need to hide anymore.

"Who exactly are you?" Su Mengyan asked coldly, eyeing Chen Mo.

Despite her satisfaction with his current appearance, her body had been defiled by this unfamiliar man, indicating he was likely not one of the other Immortal Dao Sects’ prodigies, thus unworthy of her; unless his constitution matched hers.

If not, having ruined her purity, he could not be allowed to live.

"Are you okay?"

At that moment, a concerned voice came from behind Chen Mo, tinged with urgency.
