Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chu Linfeng hesitated for a moment, preparing to circulate the chaotic immortal power within him to see what would happen, when Jiang Tao suddenly said, ”Kid, I think you shouldn’t try. Even if you do, it’s useless; at most, it will make the Ascension Platform emit yellow light, which is a complete waste of time.”

Chu Linfeng glanced at him and found Jiang Tao’s face showed utter disdain, ”Brother, I wonder how many colors the Ascension Platform can emit, and what are the corresponding power levels? Please enlighten me, Lin Feng would be immensely grateful.”

Before Jiang Hong could speak, Jiang Tao responded, ”Kid, you should know your limits. The Ascension Platform emits seven lights that correspond to the realms you can potentially break through to in the future, which is also the basis for the Emperor’s Palace recruiting talent. Is there a need for someone like you, who can only reach the Earth Immortal Realm, to know this?”

Chu Linfeng had initially wanted to say that he too was just at the Earth Immortal Realm, what right did he have to boast? If he wanted to kill him, it would take no time, provoke him enough and he wouldn’t hesitate.

”Second brother, that’s our duty, so don’t say more. If he truly only has the potential to advance to Earth Immortal, then we’ll send him to the mine for some tempering. If he has Celestial Immortal potential, then we’ll send him to the City Lord’s Mansion,” Jiang Hong said.

Chu Linfeng gave Jiang Hong a grateful glance. Jiang Hong continued, ”The colors are divided into yellow, orange, red, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Yellow corresponds to Earth Immortal potential, orange to Celestial Immortal, red to Golden Immortal, green to Daluo Golden Immortal, cyan to Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, and the last two to Immortal Monarch and Immortal Emperor. I hope you can make the Ascension Platform emit orange light so you won’t suffer.”

Chu Linfeng nodded and slowly circulated the chaotic immortal power within him, injecting it into the Ascension Stone. In his mind, the result might be red or cyan light, but the outcome was somewhat unbelievable to him, even Jiang Tao and Jiang Hong were taken aback.

The Ascension Platform did not emit the heaven-defying purple light; instead, no light appeared. No matter how hard Chu Linfeng tried, he couldn’t make the Ascension Platform emit any light.

”Is the Ascension Platform broken? How could it not even emit yellow light? Could it be that this kid is inherently a waste, only capable of an ordinary immortal realm, yet he was able to ascend to the Immortal Realm? That’s really strange,” Jiang Hong said incredulously.

”Didn’t I say this guy was a waste? You let him try, and now the result is none, not even Earth Immortal potential. Really a waste of expression. Quickly send him to the mine; this kid has wasted quite a bit of our time, I get annoyed just looking at him,” Jiang Tao said.

”Second brother, check what’s wrong with the Ascension Platform. We must know that today these two things happening is very unusual. No one can stay in the Ascension Pool for a whole day, and the Ascension Platform shouldn’t emit no light. Even the most wasteful once ascended should be able to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm, it’s an eternal rule,” Jiang Hong said.

”What a bother!” Jiang Tao glared at Chu Linfeng and approached the Ascension Platform, then circulated the immortal spirit power in his body and pressed it onto the platform, which emitted orange light. He was delighted, ”Brother, it emitted orange light! Does this mean I can break through to Celestial Immortal?”

”Indeed, second brother, you seem to have some potential. The Ascension Platform should be fine, this kid might really be a waste. Take him to the mine; I’ll report this strange occurrence to the Hanjiang City Lord; such oddities are rare over millennia,” Jiang Hong said.

”Rest assured, brother. I’m in a good mood today; I’ll take care of this kid,” Jiang Tao replied, but he then noticed the storage ring on Chu Linfeng’s hand. Although the rings from ascended individuals from the lower realm usually contain worthless items, some things might be worth a look to him.

”Kid, entering the mine, you can’t bring a storage ring; hand it to me for safekeeping. When you exit the mine, you can ask me for it back. Otherwise, your ring will be confiscated at the mine, don’t blame me for not warning you,” Jiang Tao said.

Chu Linfeng hadn’t expected the guy to aim directly for the storage ring. He already had a strong aversion to him; boasting with minimal Earth Immortal strength before him, truly unaware of life and death.

”My storage ring holds nothing valuable, giving it to you won’t help. Just take me to the mine; I also want to temper myself there,” Chu Linfeng said.

Seeing Chu Linfeng eager to go to the mine, Jiang Tao felt something was odd. Maybe the ring indeed contained something good, but he already had a plan; the good stuff should naturally be his to share. With his elder brother present, any truly valuable finds wouldn’t include him.

”Alright, let’s go! Anyway, no one will ascend here for a while, and the mine is a great place to temper newcomers. Many who enter after ascending improve their strength, with some even reaching Earth Immortal. Such individuals are quickly put to good use, kid, make an effort!” Jiang Tao laughed.

Jiang Hong went to report the unusual occurrence regarding Chu Linfeng’s ascension to the Hanjiang City Lord, while Jiang Tao led Chu Linfeng towards the mine. Chu Linfeng realized that having suppressed his power to an ordinary immortal realm here, he couldn’t fly—a peculiar discovery.

”Brother, why walk instead of fly? How far is the mine, and when can we reach it?” Chu Linfeng couldn’t help but ask.

”Fly? Haha, kid, you’re hilarious. In the Immortal Realm, only those who reach Earth Immortal can fly. Now, you an ordinary immortal want to fly, that’s a great joke. You wanted to know how far the mine is, right? I’ll tell you, the mine is thirty thousand miles away; at this pace, it will take about half a year to get there.”

”But I’ve thought of a great way for you to avoid the hardship of the journey; you should thank me,” Jiang Tao said.

”Oh, what could this way be? Please tell me, Lin Feng would be immensely grateful,” Chu Linfeng said, inwardly amused, ”Actually planning to act here, truly unaware of life and death. Whether the mine is thirty thousand miles away, I’ll verify soon, and then he’ll know the consequences of offending me. Want the storage ring? Maybe in the next life.”
