Chapter 1202: Reforming the Divine Treasure

The Yulin Army soldiers had transformed into energy bodies; everything inside them was energy, not physical flesh. This was the most opportune time to modify their Divine Bridge and Divine Treasures. Therefore, Qin Mu began the modification immediately.

However, this process was also extremely dangerous. Qin Mu had never before attempted to modify someone else's divine treasures. Based on his previous experiments converting phoenix feathers and dragon scales into matter-energy, the probability of failure was extremely high! Previous failures only resulted in the loss of feathers or scales, but a failure now would cost the lives of the Yulin Army soldiers! Nevertheless, Qin Mu believed he had complete confidence.

He had no confidence in modifying someone else's Heavenly Palace because each Heavenly Palace possessed different attributes, and the attributes varied depending on the cultivation method. However, he was one of the earliest pioneers of the Heavenly River Divine Treasure, perhaps not as early as Xu Shenghua, but Qin Mu had made dozens of trial-and-error attempts to establish it. His understanding of the human body's seventh divine treasure surpassed everyone else's! He was highly confident in modifying the Yulin Army soldiers' seventh divine treasure.

Wei Suifeng was incredibly anxious but dared not disturb Qin Mu, watching him meticulously reshape the soldiers' physical bodies, primordial spirits, and even their souls, piece by piece. Soon after, utilizing the evolution of Yin and Yang energies and the power of the Taiji Original Stone, Qin Mu managed to completely recreate the Yulin Army soldier! Qin Mu sighed with relief, and everyone else felt joy and encouragement.

"Junior Brother, you absolutely must not modify the divine treasure of the next Yulin Army soldier!" Wei Suifeng suddenly interjected.

Qin Mu looked surprised. "Senior Brother, when the Yulin Army soldiers return to the future, they certainly won't be able to rejoin the Heavenly Court. They'll have to integrate into Yankang. Their cultivation methods are too ancient, and opening a Heavenly Court is extremely difficult, not something everyone can achieve." He chuckled, "Those who can destroy their Divine Bridge Divine Treasure and open the Heavenly River Divine Treasure are one in ten thousand! I'm taking this opportunity to reshape their seventh divine treasure for them; their future achievements will be limitless!"

Wei Suifeng shook his head. "Junior Brother, the soldiers under my command are more than one in ten thousand; one in a hundred million is a conservative estimate. During the Dragon Han era, the Nine Celestials established the Divine Treasure and Heavenly Palace realms. These were opened by individuals through their own abilities, with very little inheritance. This was especially true for the Ten Heavenly Guards, who established their divine treasures and Heavenly Palaces entirely through their own capabilities. It's too dangerous for you to help them reshape their seventh divine treasure. Once they arrive in Yankang, they can perfectly well destroy their Divine Bridge and open the Heavenly River on their own."

Qin Mu's eyes gleamed as he fixed his gaze on the fifty thousand Yulin Army soldiers. Over hundreds of thousands of years, the Dragon Han Heavenly Court had selected the Ten Heavenly Guards, each one an elite among elites. Every Yulin Army soldier possessed extremely high cultivation, mostly at the Jade Capital realm! Moreover, these individuals had opened their divine treasures and Heavenly Palaces entirely through their own abilities. Such talent meant that even in Yankang, it would likely be impossible to gather fifty thousand such formidable beings! What an extraordinary and heaven-defying group they were! Of course, the reforms in Yankang had been ongoing for too short a time. While various geniuses were emerging, the limited time and shallow foundation meant that their full potential was yet to be seen.

"Senior Brother, can you guarantee that every Yulin Army soldier will be loyal to you?" Qin Mu quietly asked.

Wei Suifeng replied calmly, "I couldn't guarantee it before, but after they were assimilated by the ghost ship, I'm certain they will no longer be loyal to the Heavenly Emperor. And since I was assimilated with them and accompanied them, in their hearts, I am their leader."

Qin Mu smiled and continued to convert the Yulin Army soldiers' matter-energy one by one, transforming them from energy into physical bodies. He became increasingly skilled, quickly restoring over a hundred Yulin Army soldiers.

Qin Mu looked at Wei Suifeng, who understood and stepped forward. Although Feng Qiuyun and Dragon Lord were currently docile, they might not truly submit. The deterrence of powerful figures like Wei Suifeng and the Yulin Army was necessary to prevent them from making any sudden moves. Wei Suifeng was too powerful; restoring him was much more difficult than restoring others. Qin Mu exerted considerable effort to barely bring him back from his energy state.

"Junior Brother, you should restore yourself first. Your state is very unstable. If you continue to expend energy without cultivating to replenish your vital qi, you will eventually exhaust your cultivation," Wei Suifeng said.

Qin Mu nodded. Indeed, being an energy body was extremely perilous; a slight misstep could lead to an explosion. Furthermore, activating the Taiji Original Stone consumed his internal energy, and without cultivation, he could indeed deplete his own energy and be unable to resurrect himself. He rested for a moment, then began restoring himself.

As the Taiji Original Stone was activated, Qin Mu's heart stirred, and an idea sparked within him: "Senior Brother doesn't want me to modify his comrades, so I can modify myself!"

His eyes lit up. Seeing this, Wei Suifeng couldn't help but worry that the boy's eyeballs might suddenly explode, blowing his skull off with a pop.

"Junior Brother, cause a little less trouble." Wei Suifeng said earnestly, "I don't worry about anyone else, only about you causing trouble and messing things up recklessly."

Qin Mu chuckled, "Senior Brother, don't worry, I know my limits."

"As if!" Wei Suifeng fumed, exasperated, "When have you ever known your limits? You torment others to no end, and you torment yourself to no end too! Just focus on restoring yourself honestly, don't mess around!"

Qin Mu nodded repeatedly, pondering to himself, "My cultivation system is different from others. I only have the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure as a major realm, with the seven Heavenly Palace and Heavenly Court realms being minor stages within it. In terms of realms, I have very little room for modification. And the Dao Realm system created by Kai Huang requires personal enlightenment and cannot be cultivated through matter-energy conversion. What I can modify now is primarily the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure."

His eyes began to gleam again, making Wei Suifeng's heart pound nervously. "When I first opened my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure, my understanding of the path of Yin and Yang evolution wasn't deep, leading to significant deficiencies. This time, while reshaping my physical body and primordial spirit, I can try to integrate my insights into the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure. Beyond that is the path of Grand Primordium!"

Qin Mu mused, "Grand Primordium is the origin of matter. It has form and matter, but has not yet fully formed a body. Therefore, it can undergo countless transformations. However, my understanding of the Grand Primordium path isn't deep yet... What if I could integrate the primordial liquid from the Grand Primordium Divine Egg into myself?" He immediately shook his head, his eyes dimming.

Wei Suifeng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat reassured.

"The primordial liquid from the Grand Primordium Divine Egg can only be catalyzed by the Grand Primordium Divine Stone. If I force the integration, I'm afraid I'd turn into a puddle of liquid and be eaten."

Qin Mu's mind began to work again. "I can also incorporate the runes I deciphered from the Grand Beginning path into this qualitative transformation! Oh, and there are the Great Dao runes on the Heavenly Emperor Tai Chu's eggshell. Although I don't understand much of them, I can copy them down and imprint them into my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure. That's certainly achievable!" He grew excited once more, his eyes shining brighter and brighter, making Wei Suifeng anxious again.

Qin Mu paced around the Taiji Original Stone, thinking, "I can also integrate the Taiyi Primordial Chaos Eggshell into my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure, using these two halves as its cornerstone! Yes! I should build my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure according to the specifications of the ancestral court, not based on the current universe! I'll use the Taiji Diagram as the center and expand outwards from there... No, I'll use the Great Blackwood and the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains as the center!"

The more he thought, the more excited he became. Wei Suifeng quickly shouted to snap him out of it, "Junior Brother, calm down! Your eyeballs are about to explode!"

Qin Mu quickly composed himself and calmed his mind, thinking, "The Hundred Thousand Black Mountains are the divine tree that connects with the past sixteen universes. Perhaps I can use the Great Blackwood as a basis to recreate the divine tree within my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure! I can also utilize the Five Innate Paths to transform them into the five great primordial mineral veins within my Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure! Yes, that's exactly what I'll do!"
