Early the next morning, Ling Jiu left Lantian Base City and flew the maglev airship toward the Australian continent.
It had been a month since he left the Australian continent, and the Arcana Replication could be replicated again.
Ling Jiu's goal was very clear: the Flame Astral Behemoth's Arcana.
"Ultimate Physique!
"Spawn Split!
"The Devourer!
"Inner World!
"Which one should I replicate first?"
As the maglev airship sped through the air, Ling Jiu silently calculated. After replicating the Ultimate Physique, his body would undergo earth-shattering changes.
His hand-to-hand combat ability would definitely increase.
But Spawn Split, The Devourer, and Inner World were not bad either.
...
The airship soon arrived at the valley of Mount Kosciuszko.
After putting away the airship, Ling Jiu went into the dimension and came to the mysterious underground space again, where he saw the crimson Flame Astral Behemoth egg.
Ling Jiu's eyes were burning.
Name: Unknown
Race: Unknown
Arcana: Super Physique (awakened, replicable), Flight Arcana (awakened, replicable), Flame Arcana (awakened, replicable), Doppelganger (awakened, replicable), Soul Peek (awakened, replicable), Devourer (awakened, replicable), Inner World (awakened, replicable)
"Super Physique Replication!"
Ling Jiu hesitated for a long time before making his choice. The other Arcanas had limited effects on his strength, and they were not as straightforward as the Ultimate Physique.
So, he would replicate the Ultimate Physique first.
Replication successful. Assimilate?
"Assimilate!"
At Ling Jiu's command, an incomparably hot, turbulent, and tyrannical Inner Body suddenly exploded in Ling Jiu's body, and then divided into thousands of tiny heat flows, instantly rushing into every corner of Ling Jiu's body.
Boom!!
As if a gasoline barrel had been ignited in his body, Ling Jiu only felt a piercing pain exploding from every corner of his body, like a surging wave, crazily hitting every inch of his nerves. Ling Jiu let out a mournful wail.
"It hurts!
"It … it hurts!"
The next moment.
A scorching red flame suddenly emerged from Ling Jiu's body, burning his cells, his organs, every inch of his skin, and his clothes. For a moment, Ling Jiu became a man on fire.
His casual clothes, worth tens of thousands of yuan, did not last more than a few seconds under the burning flames. Ling Jiu was suddenly exposed to the air.
Through the red flames, one could clearly see the veins on the surface of Ling Jiu's skin, his muscles, bones, and skin wriggling.
It was as if there were countless ants crawling crazily under his skin. It looked extremely horrifying.
"Ahhh —"
Ling Jiu's face was ferocious, and his eyes were bloodshot. He felt like his whole body was about to be torn apart as he convulsed violently.
Ling Jiu had never thought that extreme pain would feel like this. It was so painful that he could neither live nor die.
If possible, Ling Jiu really wanted to pass out. That would save him a lot of trouble. However, the moment he passed out, he would be woken up by the pain again, and it was hard to pass out even if he wanted to.
"Motherf * cker! I've replicated so many Esper Abilities, but I've never felt as much pain as I did today, it's simply … "
Ling Jiu screamed again and again, but he did not know that under this unprecedented pain, his body was undergoing earth-shattering changes.
Whether it was the cells, organs, tissues, bones, muscles, skin, or blood, they were all undergoing unimaginable changes!
Every single cell!
Every inch of flesh!
Every single bone!
Nirvana in the flame!
In a trance, there was an earth-shattering roar. Suddenly, a phantom of a giant beast covered in fiery red scales appeared above Ling Jiu's head. Its body seemed to be made of hard alloy. It flapped its wings and roared again and again!
Looking at Ling Jiu now, his exposed skin had turned red, like a lobster that had been tossed into a hot pan of oil and fried.
...
After some time, when the transformation was completely over, Ling Jiu was lying on the ground, covered in sweat and black blood.
Ling Jiu seemed to be lying in a pool of blood. At this moment, he did not even want to move a finger!
Pain!
It was really too painful!
It was as if he had gone through hell!
That feeling was still lingering in his heart when he recalled it now. Ling Jiu swore that he never wanted to experience that kind of hellish pain again!
After resting for some time, Ling Jiu finally got up from the ground, and then got some water to wash the blood on his body.
At this time, Ling Jiu found something different. His skin was crystal clear, and every inch of his skin was shining with a faint light, like the finest white jade, extremely smooth and flawless, full of the strange charm of strength and beauty.
Looking at his whole body, his body was well-proportioned, and his muscles were well-defined. The thinner he was, the fatter he was, the fatter he was. His whole body was like a perfect treasure made by heaven and earth, completely built according to the golden ratio.
"Looks like I'm more handsome than before!"
Ling Jiu muttered to himself as he clenched his fists. A majestic power surged in his body. It seemed that every bone, every muscle, and every inch of skin in his body contained unimaginably terrifying energy.
"How much... has my body improved?"
Ling Jiu muttered, and then adjusted the surrounding gravity on his body.
One hundred times gravity.
Too light.
Two hundred times gravity.
Kind of felt it.
Three hundred times gravity.
It was a little heavy.
Four hundred times gravity.
A little strenuous.
Five hundred times gravity.
A little stifling in his chest.
Six hundred times gravity.
"That's pretty heavy!"
Ling Jiu cracked his neck and loosened his shoulders. Then, he threw a few punches, full of power and vigor.
Even under six hundred times gravity, it was still quite easy!
Ling Jiu was shocked!
Three hundred times gravity had made the Class 7 Three-headed Frostfire Scaled Dragon unable to move.
Six hundred times gravity had made Ah Fu, a Level 8 Arcanist, bleed from all orifices.
And under six hundred times gravity, he only felt very heavy.
How strong was his body?
To get the answer, Ling Jiu left the valley, turned on the Direbeast Radar, and found the nearest Class 8 Direbeast.
It was a Titan Direbear, evolved from a koala.
Its body was more than a hundred meters long, covered with steel-like spikes, and its body was bloated like a meatball. Its claws alone were more than ten meters long.
"The Titan Direbear is a strength-type Direbeast, and its ferocious strength is also among the top of the Class 8 Direbeasts. I'll use it to test my body!"
Ling Jiu jumped toward the Titan Direbear's head. But the moment he jumped, Ling Jiu knew he had underestimated his current body.
Whoosh!
Ling Jiu leaped hundreds of meters high like the Hulk, then drew a perfect parabola and stepped over the Titan Direbear's head.
"F * ck! Since when did my body become so light? "
Landing back on the ground, Ling Jiu looked at the Titan Direbear, which he had left far behind, and could not help but complain.
The moment he jumped, he felt his body was light as if he had lost weight, and gravity seemed to have no effect on him at all!
"Again!"
Ling Jiu turned around, and with a light tap of his right foot on the ground, he jumped up like a cannonball.
This time, he had good control of his strength, and if nothing went wrong, he would be able to accurately jump onto the Titan Direbear's head.
However, just as Ling Jiu was about to land on the Titan Direbear's head, the Titan Direbear suddenly raised its paw and slapped him as if he was a fly.
Bam!
Ling Jiu was sent flying like a tennis ball, and then slammed into the ground, creating a large pit.
"Bah!"
Ling Jiu climbed out of the pit and spat out the soil that had drilled into his mouth. He then patted the soil off his body and moved his body.
He was intact!
There was no sign of injury at all!
"I'm fine after taking a slap from the Titan Direbear!"
Ling Jiu was amazed. "Just how strong is my body now?"
"Roar!!!"
The Titan Direbear stood up on its hind legs, slapping its chest with both paws as it let out an earth-shattering roar. It was angry that Ling Jiu had disturbed its sweet dream, and it wanted to tear Ling Jiu into pieces.
Boom!!
The Titan Direbear raised its right paw and slapped down. Ling Jiu instinctively wanted to fight back, but he held back and let the paw hit him.
Boom!!
The Titan Direbear's giant paw hit the ground head-on, and the ground within a radius of hundreds of meters shook violently, and at the same time, a large amount of dust was kicked up.
The Titan Direbear was very satisfied with its blow, and then lifted its paw and left. It had absolute confidence in its strength, and Ling Jiu was dead!
"Where are you going, big guy?"
Just then, a teasing voice suddenly came from behind. The Titan Direbear quickly turned around and saw Ling Jiu's body smashed into the ground like a nail, with only his head sticking out. But Ling Jiu was not dead, and instead looked at it with a smile.
"Roar!!!"
The Titan Direbear was shocked. Ling Jiu had taken a bear paw and was smashed into the ground, and yet he was still alive. Was he the reincarnation of a cockroach?
As a Class 8 Direbeast, the Titan Direbear's IQ was not inferior to that of humans. To be honest, the Titan Direbear was a little uneasy at this moment.
Just as the Titan Direbear was in shock, Ling Jiu emerged from the ground like Orochimaru. He patted the dust off his body. "The warm-up is over. Next, the real battle begins!
"I'm going to attack. Are you ready?"
As soon as his voice trailed off, Ling Jiu instantly disappeared from where he was, and in less than a tenth of a second, he suddenly appeared between the Titan Direbear's eyebrows.
Then, he stomped down.
Boom!!
Ling Jiu had to admit that with just a gentle stomp, the hundred-meter-tall Titan Direbear was sent flying as if it had been hit by a speeding high-speed rail. It flew for dozens of meters and finally slammed into the ground.
Whoosh!
Ling Jiu was like a shadow, and the moment the Titan Direbear was about to hit the ground, he appeared under the Titan Direbear. Then, with a push of his hands, he lifted the Titan Direbear up.
"Up!"
Ling Jiu exerted force in his arms and then pushed hard. The Titan Direbear was like a cannonball, flying into the sky at a terrifying speed.
"Again!"
Ling Jiu stomped hard on the ground, and then, like Emperor Kai using the Eight Gates of Inner Mongolia, he stepped on the air and ran directly in the air.
Bam, bam, bam!
The Titan Direbear flew to the highest point, and Ling Jiu ran to the highest point. He somersaulted in the air, and his right foot struck the Titan Direbear's head like a steel whip.
Kacha!
The Titan Direbear's head split open.
