Chapter 679: Chapter 277: Golden Runes Within the Mysterious Giant Bone! (Part 2)

”Xu Ran, can he actually fly?”

”Look at the white vortex around Xu Ran, could he really have become an Immortal?”

”I always thought Xu Ran only had the attack skills of an Immortal, but I never expected he could fly?!”

”Xu Ran’s talent is truly terrifying!”

...

The villagers widened their eyes, watching the scene of Xu Ran slowly rising into the air, exclaiming in amazement. Even Qi Lao, who always believed in Xu Ran’s talent, was stunned at the sight in the sky, his hands trembling uncontrollably, unable to believe what he was seeing.

When he first obtained the Body Refining Manual, those people who emerged from the depths of the Great Mountain only ascended slowly, unlike Xu Ran now, effortlessly soaring like an Immortal.

How long had it been, yet Xu Ran had reached a level they could not even imagine.

They were still in the stage of martial practice, while Xu Ran had already begun cultivating immortality, the gap was immeasurable.

”It seems that even this small Great Wilderness Border Village and this small Great Mountain cannot hinder Xu Ran, and may even become obstacles to his progress!”

...

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the white vortices surrounding Xu Ran and the white air currents rising from the Giant Tripod in the air began to merge, sensing each other, and Xu Ran was pulled towards the Giant Tripod by the white vortex within it.

”Plop---”

In no time at all, Xu Ran’s entire body was drawn into the Giant Tripod like a recycled kite, immersed within the marrow and dewdrops. Instantly, golden light bloomed, waves of medicinal fragrance diffusing outward. The villagers watching from outside the courtyard inhaled this fragrance unconsciously, their internal power rising significantly at the same time.

At this moment.

Inside the Giant Tripod, the herbs and Demon Bone thrown in by Xu Binghu were instantly transformed into white bone marrow, becoming part of the medicinal bath.

However, the White Jade Giant Bone, which was cut into ten sections, now existed within the Giant Tripod. The difference this time was that the golden Runes on the surface of the White Jade Giant Bone were fully revealed, protruding as if they could leap out at any moment.

As Xu Ran first submerged into the Giant Tripod, a powerful force surged towards him like a tide, a prickling pain spreading throughout his body, as if countless tiny figures were incessantly pricking his skin with needles, irritating yet not fatal.

Xu Ran furrowed his brows, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, the sudden stinging pain overwhelming him momentarily.

It wasn’t that it was unbearably painful, rather, the sensation was extremely bothersome.

Soon, Xu Ran gritted his teeth, enduring the discomfort, circulating the unceasing stream of Innate Qi within his body, starting to flow through every part, repairing his damaged body. In an instant, countless streams of Innate Qi surged like a flood, continuously washing through Xu Ran’s body, and even white breath seeped out between his pores.

The massive Innate Qi continued repairing the body.

A moment later.

The prickling pain like needle stabs disappeared, replaced by a gentle and comfortable sensation.

At the same time.

The bone marrow within the Giant Tripod decreased at a visible rate, and the water became a lot clearer. However, Xu Ran showed no signs of awakening.

Outside, Xiao Bai observed, pouring the bone marrow directly in, and suddenly, the previous comfort Xu Ran felt vanished, replaced by intense pain, making it feel like every pore in his body was being seared, every nerve pulled taut as the recently infused marrow permeated into him, replacing his blood and bones.

The intense pain caused him to clench his fists tightly within the Giant Tripod, his nails involuntarily digging into his flesh, the pain making him suddenly open his eyes.

Instantly, a gelatinous world appeared before his eyes, which was the marrow.

Within the marrow, the White Jade Giant Bone cut into ten sections emitted a golden glow, and the original golden Runes on the surface separated from the bone, appearing within the marrow.

Simultaneously, these Runes emitted a faint golden stream of light, interconnecting to form a large net capable of binding Xu Ran.

Before Xu Ran could react, the large web of faint golden light directly engraved itself on his body surface.

Soon, the medicinal power in the Giant Tripod was ensnared by this pale golden web, all entering Xu Ran’s body.

In no time, the countless Innate Qi within Xu Ran mingled with the medicinal power entering his body, the intense pain disappearing instantly. In contrast, a gentle and comfortable sensation swept through his body, as if mending it.

As the medicinal power and marrow penetrated, a faint golden halo emerged around his body, signalling the merging of medicinal power and Innate Qi.

Xu Ran closed his eyes tightly, allowing the medicinal power and Innate Qi to blend within, as if witnessing his meridians being washed sturdier under the fusion of medicinal power and Innate Qi, the Spiritual Qi within growing more abundant.

Just like this, a whole hour passed.

In the Xu Family courtyard.

Everyone craned their necks, eager to know what was happening within the Giant Tripod.

”There’s no sound at all, could something have happened?” someone suddenly questioned.

”How is that possible? Xu Ran couldn’t possibly have encountered any issues?”

”But ever since Xu Ran went in, there hasn’t been any sign, could something have really gone wrong?”

”Xu Ran now is like an Immortal, how could anything go wrong during a medicinal bath?”

”Relax, even the Peregrine Falcon and Sick Tiger raised by Xu Ran haven’t shown any dramatic moves, so there should be no problem!”

...

As they spoke.

A sudden burst of golden light erupted from the Giant Tripod, blooming within the Xu Family courtyard like a lotus flower, even overshadowing the sunlight from the scorching sun, making it hard to keep their eyes open.

”What’s happening? I can’t open my eyes!!”

”Why did golden light suddenly appear?”

”What’s going on?”

...

Xu Binghu shielded his eyes from the golden light with his hand, relying on his last bit of memory, spoke excitedly, ”This golden light seems to be emanating from the Giant Tripod?”

Qi Lao, ”Could it be that Xu Ran’s medicinal bath was successful?”

Since Xu Ran entered the Giant Tripod, there had been no sound. Now, with this sudden phenomenon, there’s only this one explanation.

Soon after.

The blinding golden light slowly dissipated, and when visibility returned, everyone’s first instinct was to look towards the source of the golden light.

They saw.

High above, a figure glowing golden stood in the air, golden Runes appearing on his body surface, exuding a mystical aura. This form seemed more ethereal than anything else in the world.

This was everyone’s first impression upon seeing this form.

Clearly, this was Xu Ran’s body after the medicinal bath.

Now, he appeared like a porcelain doll, his body pure and unstained, incredibly attractive, yet untouchable.

Xu Ran descended slowly to the ground, and with a thought, the pale golden Runes floating on his body’s surface disappeared, merging within, as though they had never existed.

”Mm! This medicinal bath advanced my body to another level, and it seems that the Runes of the White Jade Giant Bone have been drawn into my body by Innate Qi.”

When he first submerged into the Giant Tripod, merging with the medicinal power in the marrow, he saw the golden Runes on the surface of the White Jade Giant Bone manifesting perfectly within the marrow, truly remarkable.

Those golden Runes transformed into a large web, all integrating into his body.

It was precisely this action that seemed to have enlightened him on what those golden Runes attached to the White Jade Giant Bone truly were.

”Those golden Runes seem to be a fragment of a Divine Skill, but it requires further exploration!!”

Indeed, Xu Ran now had gained a fragment of a Divine Skill, though currently, he wasn’t clear on what this Divine Skill fragment’s functions were.

”There’s no rush on the Divine Skill fragment; I haven’t even achieved Great Success in the Immortal Sword Skill yet?!”
