Chapter 26: Reaching Rank 100 to Become a God and Slapping the Entire Continent in the Face, the Immortal King Sees Through the Mosaic!
Although the crucial parts were thoughtfully covered with thick mosaics by the sky screen, the radiant glow flowing across her skin, white and lustrous as mutton-fat jade, along with the terrifying explosive power that could be felt even through the screen, still caused countless men across the entire Douluo Continent to stare in stunned silence. At the same time, it made innumerable female soul masters feel ashamed of themselves.
Her skin was crystal clear and translucent, as if every inch of flesh and blood had been forged from divine metal. Her originally cold temperament now carried an added trace of sacred and untouchable majesty.
Especially the Hell Spirit Cat totem on her back, which rose and fell slightly with her breathing, as though an ancient ferocious beast was slowly awakening.
At this same moment, deep within the Primordial Divine Palace of the Primordial Immortal Court, a palace that stood above the Nine Heavens and was wrapped in endless chaos energy, a pair of originally half-closed eyes slowly opened.
Within those eyes lay the sun, moon, and countless stars. As they opened and closed, scenes of the birth and destruction of universes flowed within them, terrifying beyond measure.
They belonged to the lord of the Primordial Immortal Court, the Immortal King, Jiang Chen.
"Oh?"
At this moment, Jiang Chen lay sideways on a reclining chair woven from the branches of the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree. His gaze seemed to pierce through layers of space before finally falling unobstructed upon the perfect body above the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
For an Immortal King, the so-called mosaic naturally did not exist.
Those breathtaking curves, along with the faint flush on her skin caused by the recent reconstruction of her body, were all clearly visible to him.
Yet there was not the slightest trace of lust in Jiang Chen's eyes. There was only calm appreciation, like that given to a work of art, along with a faint trace of approval.
"I didn't expect Zhu Zhuqing to possess such determination. Heh, one could say she truly broke and rebuilt herself. And her luck seems quite good as well."
"She actually used the power of the Spirit Cleansing Pool to transform the low-level martial soul rules of that world into a special physique bloodline."
At this point, Jiang Chen continued to watch without looking away. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly as his fingers lightly tapped the armrest.
"Although in a world like the Perfect World, this kind of physique would only be considered ordinary, even at the bottom, it still counts as breaking free from the mortal body. At least she now possesses the qualifications to step onto the path of cultivation."
...
At this time, beside the Spirit Cleansing Pool.
The old nanny, who had been observing Zhu Zhuqing's transformation with a serious expression, was startled the moment she saw Zhu Zhuqing emerge from the water just like that.
Her eyes were immediately drawn to the two enormous peaks on Zhu Zhuqing's chest.
Soon after, the nanny withdrew her envious gaze. She glanced down at herself, sighed softly, and casually waved her hand.
Splash!
In the next second, a flowing light-blue fairy dress woven from unknown divine silkworm threads appeared out of thin air. It wrapped around Zhu Zhuqing's enchanting body—a body capable of turning all living beings upside down.
"Hoo..."
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing finally awakened from that mysterious state.
She slowly opened her eyes and carefully sensed the power within her body.
"This power..."
After a long moment, Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head and looked at her jade-like, crystalline palm before clenching it tightly.
Bang!
A crisp sound immediately rang out from her palm.
Although her body now felt empty, without a single trace of soul power remaining, she felt that her current state had never been better.
It felt as though, with a single punch, she could directly blow apart her former self.
"Awake?"
Seeing her standing there blankly, the nanny clasped her hands behind her back. After withdrawing her envious gaze, she coughed lightly with a faint blush on her face before calmly looking at Zhu Zhuqing.
"How do you feel?"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing immediately descended to the ground. Although she was still slightly unsteady on her feet after the transformation, she respectfully bowed to the nanny.
"Thank you, Granny, for granting me a new life!"
"It feels as if a thousand-pound burden has been lifted from my body. My entire being feels completely reborn!"
As she spoke, Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment before finally asking the question that everyone cared most about.
She raised her head and looked at the nanny with both anticipation and nervousness in her eyes.
"Granny, in our world, the ultimate stage of cultivation is reaching rank 100 and becoming a god."
"At that point, the body evolves into a divine body, possessing an endless lifespan and powerful strength."
"I want to know..."
At this point, Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly as she asked,
"Although I haven't yet entered the Blood Transformation Realm, with this body reconstructed by the Spirit Cleansing Pool..."
"If it were placed in our world, roughly what level would it correspond to?"
The moment those words were spoken, the entire Douluo Continent and even the entire God Realm turned their attention toward the scene.
For a moment, everyone held their breath and stared at the sky screen, desperately wanting to know the answer.
But someone who had lost all soul power and had never cultivated before was still just a mortal. Even if her body had been reconstructed, she couldn't possibly be stronger than a god, right?
If that were the case, then all of them, who had cultivated for countless years, would have basically lived their lives for nothing.
"Hmph. Overestimating herself."
Within the God Realm Committee.
The God of Destruction snorted coldly, his face full of disdain.
"Reaching rank 100 to become a god is a qualitative leap, an elevation of one's life level!"
"She is nothing more than a mortal body with brute strength and no energy fluctuations whatsoever, yet she dares to compare herself to the gods?"
"What a joke!"
Beside him, the Asura God also shook his head slightly. Although Zhu Zhuqing's surging blood vitality earlier had surprised him, he absolutely did not believe that a mortal could rival a god.
"At most, her physical constitution is comparable to a slightly stronger Soul Ancestor," the Asura God finally concluded.
However, after hearing Zhu Zhuqing's question, the nanny in the scene froze for a moment.
Then she looked at Zhu Zhuqing as if she were looking at a fool. She even reached out to rub Zhu Zhuqing's head, with an amused expression.
"Girl, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about the word 'god'?"
As for your world's so-called rank 100 god...
Granny Wang thought for a moment, as if recalling Zhu Zhuqing's power before the transformation, while also searching for a suitable comparison.
Finally, she pointed toward the Spirit Beast Garden in the distance, where a small pink pig with wings was currently snorting and digging in the dirt.
"See that? That's a Flying Spirit Pig raised in the Spirit Beast Garden as food for ferocious beast cubs."
"Because it eats spirit herbs all year round, it has accumulated some spiritual energy within its body, which makes its hide thick and its flesh tough."
"If we convert things according to physical strength and life level..."
At this point, the nanny paused briefly before turning back toward Zhu Zhuqing and speaking calmly.
"With your current physical strength, you could probably beat one or two of those Flying Spirit Pigs."
"As for your so-called rank 100 gods..."
Granny Wang let out a chuckle, shaking her head with a look of disdain.
"Those pseudo-gods created by stacking low-level soul power have bodies as fragile as paper."
"Not to mention comparing them to you, even compared to that pig, their physical strength would still be inferior."
"So, to answer your question."
After saying that, the nanny raised a finger and gently waved it in front of Zhu Zhuqing before speaking word by word.
"Although you haven't entered the Blood Transformation Realm yet, and you haven't even truly stepped through the threshold of cultivation..."
"In terms of life level and physical foundation alone..."
"You have already surpassed what your world calls rank 100."
