Omnipotent Sage

Chapter 609: Refining

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

The idea of incorporating planets into his fist intent sounded crazy at first. It could even be said that it was almost impossible. However, if one thought carefully about it, he would find that nothing was impossible.

The so-called fist intent, in the end, was the manifestation of the combination of spiritual power and one’s own Dharma power. Although the spirit was invisible, once it was strengthened to a certain degree, it could be condensed into thoughts and could solidify. Presently, Zhou Bao had condensed 18 glittering and translucent thoughts, one of which had even been refined by a kind of mysterious purple lightning and thus possessed many wonderful usages. As a result, this thought was very clear about the relationship between a spirit and entity.

Since a spirit could achieve instantiation, it was possible to transform entities into incarnated spirits. As a matter of fact, many people had done this to strengthen their fist intent. Nevertheless, no one had ever done anything so crazy as trying to take a planet and refine it into the fist intent.

After this idea occurred to Zhou Bao, more absurd thoughts began to fill his mind. Yes, even more absurd.

If he could succeed this time around, he would, in the future, have the opportunity to absorb more planets and refine them into his fist intent; not only planets but also other celestial bodies. Once his strength reached a certain phase, he would even be able to absorb fixed stars, white dwarfs, giant red stars, and all the celestial bodies, into his fist intent. If that happened, it would be possible to turn the simulated universe in his fist intent into a real one.

Of course, this was merely a crazy thought. Looking at the planet getting closer and closer, Zhou Bao clenched the two hammers in his hands. Suddenly, a light flashed through his eyes as he thought of something. He withdrew the two hammers from his hand.

“How stupid am I! I’ve grown so accustomed to hitting people with my hammers recently that my mind is almost full of muscle. Even now I want to fight with force, I’m really…!” Zhou Bao swore in a low voice. There was already a skeleton like yellow jade in his empty hand.

It was a Taihao Fairy Weapon.

The Furnace of Immortality.

A planet traveled along its orbit at the slowest speed of dozens of kilometers per second. If it moved faster, its speed could reach hundreds or even thousands of kilometers per second. Its weight and the lack of pneuma in the void, would cause even a Lord of Heaven to be smashed to bits if he was hit by the planet.

At this moment, the difference between a fairy weapon and a Pure Yang Celestial Device came out. Although his two hammers were very powerful and were Upper-grade Pure Yang Celestial Devices, strictly speaking, they were just half-fairy weapons. In the face of such a planet, the best thing they could do would be to explode a powerful force and smash it. However, a fairy weapon was different. It didn’t need to face the planet head-on because having a complete Immortal Character was equal to having a complete Principle of Great Ways. No matter which great way it was, it was simply not something a planet could resist.

Zhou Bao patted the skeleton’s head. Like serpents, seven black flames shot out of the skull toward the planet.

The Furnace of Immortality possessed a complete Principle of Great Ways.

The Law of Refinement; refine the heaven and earth!

Facing the planet, Zhou Bao displayed the full power of the Furnace of Immortality. The seven black flames were like seven pitch-black chains. They suddenly entangled themselves with the planet.

The planet had been flying towards them rapidly. Now, all of a sudden, it was pulled by seven black chains, and it slowed down. Meanwhile, the seven black chains extended as the planet moved forward and began to diffuse across its surface. At last, when its entire surface was covered in black flames, it stopped flying.

Hiss!!!

Zhou Bao took a deep breath. Several glittering and translucent divine thoughts flew out from the place between his eyebrows toward the planet. At the same time, a black sun rose slowly behind him. The surrounding void began to twist and deform, as if repelled by a strange force.

“What a large planet!”

Nine divine thoughts flew into the black flames. The Furnace of Immortality in Zhou Bao’s hands flew above the planet at the same time. It turned into a giant Elixir Furnace and came down fiercely.

BOOM!!!

The Principle of Great Ways was extremely mysterious. As the Furnace of Immortality fell down, the planet gradually became smaller. Of course, in Zhou Bao’s eyes, it did not become smaller. Instead, the whole space began to compress; the space around the planet was affected by the Furnace of Immortality. So, the planet only looked smaller.

The Furnace of Immortality had a complete Law of Refinement. It also had spatial power. Otherwise, there would be problems refining everything. The actual volume of this planet was too large and Zhou Bao was in the void, meaning he wouldn’t have been able to borrow enough spatial force. Although the Furnace of Immortality was a fairy weapon, it had only reduced the size of the planet to one-tenth of its original size. The flames were blazing and operating the Law of Refinement to start refining the planet.

“I can’t go on like this. I don’t have much time to waste here!” Zhou Bao said to himself. The present situation would not exhaust him too much for this was all done using the power of the Furnace of Immortality. If he had more time, he could refine it slowly. But time was limited. If he wanted the Furnace of Immortality to exert more power, he needed to use his own Real Essence and Dharma power to operate the furnace.

He pointed lightly to the top of the Furnace of Immortality. The black flames that encircled the planet suddenly surged. Then, they began to transform into purple flames and the space around the planet began to melt.

One after another, huge holes appeared, sending out a powerful suction, but they failed to suck the planet into them.

Pure Purple Heavenly Fire!

As one of the strongest Heavenly Fires, the temperature of the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire was extremely high. When using it to refine substances, it could not be used for too long. Otherwise, it would vaporize everything. Converted from the Tusita Fire, the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire was a replica. Although its power was certainly not as strong as that of the real one, one-tenth of its power was enough to deal with everything.

The purple Heavenly Fire burned for ten breaths and then finally disappeared. In this short period of time, Zhou Bao’s nine divine thoughts successfully fused into the planet.

The first step to refining substances and treasures into one’s fist intent was similar to refining a magic weapon. The substances and treasures needed to be refined into one’s magic weapon and then one could integrate their divine thoughts into it. This was what Zhou Bao was doing.

The planet was too large. It was not that simple to refine it. Once the nine divine thoughts integrated into the planet, Zhou Bao felt an enormous amount of power suddenly expand in his spirit and fill within.

“Good, very good!” Zhou Bao was pleased but not shocked. This meant that his nine divine thoughts had completely merged with the planet. Although his spirit swelled slightly, it was not serious. This meant his spirit was powerful enough to support a magic weapon of this size.

The following step was quite crucial.

He needed to refine the newly-refined magic weapon into his fist intent.

He activated the Mysterious Divine Light in his body, to be precise, his nine Dantians, and they started to swarm out. The black sun behind him was blazing. In the depths of the void of his fist intent, stars were twinkling. The shadows of countless celestial bodies, together with a complete scaled-down universe surrounded him.

All of a sudden, his body began to shake. A giant ferocious looking ape suddenly appeared in his fist intent. It had long snow-white hair all over its body. The giant ape stretched out its huge paws and grabbed the planet that was being suppressed and refined by the Furnace of Immortality.

“Ah—”

As the giant ape’s paws moved toward the planet, the planet suddenly shrank allowing the giant ape to grab it.

BOOM!!!!

Zhou Bao felt a strong shock all over his body, and a feeling of contraction emanated from the depths of his body. The huge shock made his chest feel tight and his whole body was boiling with qi and blood. A mouthful of blood would soon be squeezed out of his mouth.

“PLOP!”

He forcibly suppressed the feeling of vomiting blood. He had never known the throat could make such a loud noise from swallowing saliva.

He had the feeling ordinary people would have if they suddenly swallowed a watermelon in one gulp. It could not be any worse.

Although it was terrible, he had to endure it. One could not become fat in one bite, but the present situation was that Zhou Bao was now the size of an elephant.

His expression was very strange. He had forcibly put the huge watermelon (planet) into his mouth and swallowed it with all his strength. It entered his esophagus through his throat and filled his mouth, throat, and esophagus. It took a long time to swallow it. Wherever the watermelon went, the blood vessels would be torn apart. The process was extremely painful, but there was no other choice except to endure the pain.

Not knowing how long it took, he finally swallowed it. His body was damaged. He thought he would feel a little better, but after he looked carefully, it turned out not to be as simple as he had imagined.

The planet was successfully integrated into his fist intent. But as soon as it was integrated, it began to evolve inside his fist intent. Except it didn’t evolve into the planet he had imagined. Instead, it formed a strange celestial body which stayed quietly in his fist intent. It simulated the center of the universe and rotated on its own axis at an extremely slow speed. Zhou Bao felt anxious just looking at it. He estimated it would take at least three years for each rotation.

Three years for one rotation was quite slow. Nonetheless, Zhou Bao could feel that his fist intent seemed to have solidified considerably. As the planet rotated, a subtle power emitted from this strange celestial body. It integrated into his fist power through his fist intent.

BOOM!!!

With one quick punch, hundreds of kilometers away, a meteorite was smashed. However, almost half of the Mysterious Divine Light in his body was consumed in this one punch.

“I see!” Zhou Bao’s eyes flashed and then dimmed immediately.
