Xuanhuan: The Empress and I Swapped Bodies - Chapter 149

Ye Wushuang was unaware of the matters concerning Liu Shengsheng.

He was currently at a critical juncture.

Piled high with a massive amount of resources, Ye Wushuang’s realm was rapidly improving.

The spiritual energy within his body grew denser and denser, compressed tighter and tighter.

It was on the verge of a qualitative transformation, about to become immortal energy.

It was at this moment that Ye Wushuang made a startling move.

He opened his inner realm.

Ye Wushuang’s inner realm was vastly different from others’.

Not only was it larger than anyone else’s, but it also contained immortal energy far denser than the spiritual energy found in others’ realms.

Logically, such immortal energy should only be possessed by those at the Immortal Realm or above.

Yet Ye Wushuang had acquired it prematurely.

When he allowed that immortal energy to surge into his body, an inexplicable change occurred.

Normally, possessing this immortal energy should have allowed him to directly become a powerhouse of the Immortal Realm.

However, this immortal energy wasn’t compressed and refined by Ye Wushuang himself; it was the innate immortal energy originally present within his inner realm.

Because of this, its emergence didn’t instantly elevate him to the Immortal Realm.

Instead, this immortal energy joined his spiritual energy, undergoing compression within his body.

This compression made the immortal energy inside him even denser.

With the addition of this innate immortal energy from his inner realm, the compressive force inside Ye Wushuang’s body suddenly became much stronger.

His body seemed to treat this immortal energy from his inner realm as ordinary spiritual energy.

Consequently, inside Ye Wushuang’s body, this immortal energy and the ordinary spiritual energy began undergoing a qualitative change together.

Then, this immortal energy was continuously refined, transforming into a higher-level energy.

What exactly this higher-level energy was, Ye Wushuang didn’t know.

He only knew that after the spiritual and immortal energies within him were compressed to their absolute limit, the amount of immortal energy inside him had increased more than a hundredfold.

Finally, this compressed immortal energy slowly coalesced, transforming into a new type of gas.

This gas was somewhat similar to immortal energy, yet distinctly different.

Although formed from condensed immortal energy, it was clearly superior, and its color had changed to a noble purple.

This was something even Ye Wushuang hadn’t anticipated.

“Huh? I just wanted to experiment and see if adding immortal energy would cause a different change. I never expected to create something extraordinary!”

“This purple gas is clearly far, far more powerful than immortal energy!!”

Ye Wushuang clearly felt that the presence of this purple gas among the immortal energy was like a king, overwhelming everything around it.

The energy it contained vastly surpassed that of immortal energy.

He even sensed a wisp of rule-like power within this purple gas.

What exactly this rule-like power was, Ye Wushuang didn’t know.

But he could feel that this purple gas was incredibly unusual.

Especially after Ye Wushuang fully consolidated this strand of purple gas, his perception changed even more.

In just an instant, he had grown more than a hundred times stronger.

This enhancement wasn’t just in his magical power; it also included his physical body’s strength and raw power.

An increase in magical power was understandable.

After all, consolidating this strand of purple gas meant he had truly stepped into the Immortal Realm.

Some improvement in magical power fell within expected parameters.

But his physical body’s strength and raw power increasing more than a hundredfold? That was completely different.

His body tempering was already exceptionally advanced; the power contained within his body far exceeded his current magical power realm.

Because of this, further improving his body tempering realm had become much more difficult than before.

Yet this purple gas seemed tailor-made for body tempering, directly enhancing his body’s fundamental essence, making his very life force feel like it had undergone an evolution.

This was something Ye Wushuang himself never expected.

When he condensed a second strand of purple gas, a new change occurred.

Condensing the second strand consumed a massive amount of immortal energy from his inner realm.

Forming just one strand of purple gas used up the equivalent of several thousand strands of immortal energy.

After the second purple strand formed, the bloodline power within him suddenly stirred.

As if drawn by something, it became extremely active.

Simultaneously, it emitted a signal of craving.

From this signal, Ye Wushuang could perceive that the bloodline power within him desired to devour this purple gas.

This gave Ye Wushuang pause, but ultimately, he directed this strand of purple gas into his bloodline.

His bloodline power rejoiced.

It voraciously devoured the purple gas, as if receiving the nourishment it most craved.

At the same time, its aura began changing rapidly.

Ye Wushuang could feel his bloodline power growing swiftly.

This growth was like a young dragon maturing into an adult.

This development also catalyzed changes within Ye Wushuang himself.

His body was strengthened once again.

And it wasn’t just his body; his constitution was enhanced as well.

He felt his body becoming more vast, capable of holding even more spiritual energy.

He even sensed that in the future, the capacity for spiritual energy within his body could rival that of the legendary Ancestral Dragon.

However, there was one prerequisite: Ye Wushuang needed to facilitate the rapid growth of his bloodline power.

Thinking of this, Ye Wushuang felt a headache coming on.

“And here I thought I’d gained another extraordinary ability. I never expected it to be another money pit!”

“This purple energy is incredibly powerful—not only higher grade than immortal energy, but it also promotes the growth of bloodline power. But the amount of immortal energy it consumes is just too much!”

“A single strand of purple gas is equivalent to several thousand strands of immortal energy. Doesn’t that mean the resources I need for each realm are thousands of times what others require?”

“On top of that, my body’s capacity keeps increasing. Filling up for a single realm will probably require more and more resources!”

“By the time I reach the Immortal King Realm, I doubt even the Divine Dragon Empire will have enough resources to support my cultivation to higher realms!!”

Although the feeling of enhancement was fantastic, and possessing the purple gas meant Ye Wushuang would be far, far stronger than other Immortal Realm experts, he also realized his future would be even more plagued by resource scarcity.

For Ye Wushuang, this was undoubtedly a major headache.
