Cultivation knows no years; several months had already passed in the outside world.
However, within the Divine Sea Space, the flow of time was even slower, and Xiao Ze had Cultivated for over three years.
Within the Divine Sea, a massive vortex spanning hundreds of thousands of miles pulled the essence blood and energy of the entire Divine Sea Space towards its center.
Yet, even with the continuous infusion of essence blood and energy from the entire Divine Sea Space, the center of the vortex seemed like a bottomless pit, showing no signs of filling up.
Such a vast amount of energy, coupled with the passage of time, made the aura at the vortex's center grow increasingly profound and immense.
Initially, the auras of those two Super Divine Beast bloodlines held absolute dominance.
The Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python coiled around Xiao Ze, radiating a terrifying sense of devouring everything.
The Dragon Phoenix phantom, suspended high above his head, swept through the Divine Sea with an aura of utmost nobility and preciousness.
However, as time went on, both the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python and the Dragon-Phoenix Bloodline became mere backdrops to the increasingly profound and powerful aura of Xiao Ze's body.
Above the Divine Sea Space, the Three Beast Sovereigns all looked at the center of the great vortex with solemn expressions.
Over these three years, they had become numb to the sight, but no matter when they recalled it, they couldn't help but marvel internally.
After a long silence, the Palace-dressed beauty slowly spoke.
“It's almost complete… Xiao Ze must be aiming to forge an Immortal Grade Physical Body by utilizing the essence blood and energy of the Divine Sea Space, along with his two mysterious Divine Beast bloodlines.”
The scholarly man and the burly man exchanged glances, speechless.
Even within the Spirit Beast Clan, the achievements Xiao Ze had made were unprecedented.
Three years, to forge an Immortal Grade Physical Body.
One must know that an Immortal Grade Physical Body was comparable to a Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereign.
Although three years ago, Xiao Ze's combat power was already sufficient to slay the Profound Demon Emperor, and specifically a Peak expert among the Profound Demon Emperors.
However, forging Saint-Grade power in three years was still far beyond their imagination.
A moment later, the scholarly man also said with a bitter smile.
“Forging an Immortal Grade Physical Body in three years; compared to that, Xiao Ze breaking through three Realms in three years, from Late Stage Spiritual Grade to Late Stage Immortal Grade, seems somewhat unremarkable.”
The burly man opened his mouth, about to retort, but the words stopped on his tongue.
Breaking through three Realms in three years was an extremely sensational event, even across the Great Thousand Worlds.
But it was indeed as the scholarly man said; compared to forging a Saint-Grade, progressing from Late Stage Spiritual Grade to Late Stage Immortal Grade did seem a bit unremarkable.
Thinking of this, the burly man's face showed a helpless expression.
He hadn't expected that one day he would also consider breaking through three Realms in three years to be unremarkable.
As the three of them discussed, they also sensed that the aura beneath the Divine Sea was becoming increasingly complete.
Three years of arduous Cultivation, was he finally about to take the last step?
Just as this thought emerged in their minds, a vast and magnificent aura emerged from beneath the Divine Sea.
As soon as this aura appeared, even the Three Beast Sovereigns bowed their heads in reverence.
Unlike the bloodline pressure of the Dragon-Phoenix Bloodline that previously made the Palace-dressed beauty and the scholarly man feel an urge to submit, the aura now emerging made even the burly man bow his head—that was reverence for a Saint-Grade!
In the Great Thousand Worlds, Saint-Grade was already the Peak Realm.
Throughout history, only the Immortal Great Emperor had transcended Saint-Grade.
The current Great Thousand Worlds knew very little about the deeds of the Immortal Great Emperor.
Almost no one knew the Realm above Saint-Grade.
Therefore, in the eyes of countless experts, Saint-Grade was already the Peak level in the Great Thousand Worlds.
And the power represented by Saint-Grade was enough to make countless experts in the Great Thousand Worlds bow their heads in reverence.
Beneath the Divine Sea, a brilliant purple-gold light pillar instantly shot into the sky, stirring the Divine Sea and causing colossal waves to rise tens of thousands of feet high.
The magnificent purple-gold light illuminated all directions, imposing its might over the entire Divine Sea Space, causing the Divine Sea Space to tremble.
The Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python and Dragon Phoenix phantoms beside Xiao Ze all vanished, leaving only Xiao Ze himself.
He was tall and slender, with fair skin, and faint purple-gold light shimmered, giving him a sense of immortality.
After a long period of silence, Xiao Ze slowly opened his eyes, and from within his pupils, two purple-gold beams of light shot out.
In an instant, the Divine Sea in front of Xiao Ze split into two, forming a chasm tens of thousands of feet deep that could not recover for a long time.
Xiao Ze felt the power on his body, countless times stronger than before, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
This fated opportunity in the Divine Sea had given Xiao Ze an Immortal Grade Physical Body, a Saintly Body!
“It wasn't easy. I finally grasped the power to suppress, and even slay, a Saint-Grade,” Xiao Ze said softly.
Before this fated opportunity, although Xiao Ze possessed various means and was not lacking in Peerless Divine Powers or Peerless Saint Objects, which were enough to threaten a Saint-Grade.
However, to truly suppress, or even slay, a Saint-Grade in a normal state, if not absolutely impossible, was still a one-in-a-billion probability.
But now, not only had his spiritual power Realm crossed three stages, bringing Xiao Ze's spiritual power Realm to the Late Stage Immortal Grade.
He also possessed a Saintly Body, making him fearless even when facing a Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereign, and even capable of defeating them.
In addition, completing the refinement of the three Origin branches also granted Xiao Ze three Peerless Divine Powers.
His improvements in areas such as War Formation Master and Spirit Array Master were also extremely significant.
Three years of arduous Cultivation had brought about a qualitative leap in Xiao Ze's overall strength!
The immense improvement made Xiao Ze somewhat unclear about the limits of his own strength.
However, Xiao Ze was certain that an ordinary Early Stage Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereign was no match for him.
A thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Ze then organized the gains from this fated opportunity.
He stood up, lightly tapped his toes, and arrived before the Three Beast Sovereigns, respectfully bowing.
“Thank you, Three Beast Sovereigns Seniors, for the fated opportunity you bestowed, allowing me to achieve a breakthrough.”
The Three Beast Sovereigns looked at each other, not having expected that Xiao Ze could directly use the Divine Sea Space to leap to the Peak level of the Great Thousand Worlds.
Saint-Rank Heavenly Sovereigns, even in the Three Beast Sovereigns' lifetimes, were existences they had to look up to.
The Palace-dressed beauty shook her head and smiled, “No need for such formalities. While the Divine Sea fated opportunity was important, achieving such gains is also due to your own capabilities.”
The scholarly man and the burly man nodded in agreement.
After all, if it were an ordinary Cultivator, even if they reached the Heavenly Sovereign Realm, they wouldn't be able to break through three Realms and cultivation an Immortal Grade Physical Body in three years within the Divine Sea.
Xiao Ze's gains were still due to his own talent, especially those two extremely peculiar Super Divine Beast bloodlines.
However, since Xiao Ze didn't mention them, they wouldn't pry.
After some pleasantries, Xiao Ze hesitated for a moment, then slowly spoke.
“Three Beast Sovereigns Seniors, I have a Spirit Nurturing Array that can preserve your power for a longer time.”
“Especially now that the Devil Emperor is gone, if you don't use your power, it should last for several millennia.”
“Later, if the Three Beast Sovereigns Seniors are interested, I can also refine bodies to contain your power, which could be considered a new life.”
Xiao Ze's suggestion startled the Three Beast Sovereigns.
However, after a brief thought, a glimmer of light sparked in their eyes.
It seemed truly feasible?
