The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 1189: Evolving Source Power

"Oh! Oh!"

The Xuanqing Spirit Body in Jing Yan’s hand continuously let out sharp cries, as if it could sense the presence of Body Origin Power.

Jing Yan looked once more at the sticky Xuanqing Spirit Body, then directly released the control over his Body Origin Power.

The Body Origin Power suddenly released a halo, enveloping the struggling Xuanqing Spirit Body within it.

Jing Yan saw that amidst the light of the Body Origin Power, the Xuanqing Spirit Body gradually stopped struggling, and its entire body began to slowly dissolve.

About an hour later, the Xuanqing Spirit Body completely disappeared, and Jing Yan regained control of the Body Origin Power.

"You’re getting darker and darker," Jing Yan stared at the Body Origin Power.

The color of the Body Origin Power indeed started to turn a deep dark purple.

As if it could understand Jing Yan’s words, the Body Origin Power conveyed a faint expression of discontentment, seemingly in protest.

However, Jing Yan directly ignored this kind of protest.

"Its power has indeed increased significantly!" Jing Yan felt the augmented power of the Body Origin Power with delight. "Although it still hasn’t evolved to the seventh level, its potency has surged since devouring the Xuanqing Spirit Body. I guess that by devouring a few more Low Grade Xuanqing Spirit Bodies, you can evolve to the seventh level and become High-level Source Power." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Jing Yan’s eyes swept towards the void.

The desire to capture a Xuanqing Spirit Body grew more urgent.

After storing away the sixth-level Body Origin Power, Jing Yan continued to fly forward, diligently searching for the next Xuanqing Spirit Body.

A month later, Jing Yan finally discovered the trace of a Xuanqing Spirit Body again.

As usual, he quietly approached first.

When Jing Yan got within about 500 meters of the Xuanqing Spirit Body.

"Oh!" The Xuanqing Spirit Body let out a cry, then swiftly fled, disappearing from Jing Yan’s sight.

"This..." Jing Yan couldn’t even release his Divine Soul in time.

"Goodness, a High Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body, its sensory ability is much stronger!" Jing Yan shook his head with a helpless sigh after a moment.

The Xuanqing Spirit Body he discovered earlier was indeed of High Grade. Its entire body was almost completely transparent.

"It’s really difficult to capture a High Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body, it relies on luck." Jing Yan muttered.

In the Endless Void, under the influence of the Void Yin Wind, the Divine Soul is greatly restricted. Divine Soul Power beyond 500 meters is unlikely to effectively suppress a Xuanqing Spirit Body. Therefore, Jing Yan believed that to capture a High Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body with his current abilities, it would depend on luck.

Three months later, Jing Yan discovered a Mid Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body. This time, his attempt at capturing once again failed. Of course, this capture operation was only a little bit short. If there were another chance, it should succeed.

Half a year later, Jing Yan’s good fortune came; he tightly grabbed a Mid Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body in his hand.

Ignoring the Xuanqing Spirit Body’s screams, Jing Yan released his Body Origin Power. The Body Origin Power excitedly began to feast on it.

But obviously, the speed of devouring a Mid Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body was much slower. This devouring took over ten hours before the Body Origin Power completely consumed the Xuanqing Spirit Body.

After devouring the Mid Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body, the Body Origin Power seemed to fall into slumber. Jing Yan continuously communicated intentions, but the Body Origin Power did not respond to Jing Yan at all.

"Could it be evolving?" Jing Yan thought with great anticipation.

Time passed: one year, two years, five years!

The Body Origin Power remained in slumber. During these five years, Jing Yan had been flying towards the safe haven of the Jade Stream Divine Domain, capturing quite a few Xuanqing Spirit Bodies along the way. As many as twenty-two Low Grade Xuanqing Spirit Bodies were captured. Mid Grade Xuanqing Spirit Bodies were also captured—four in total.

All these Xuanqing Spirit Bodies were kept within the Qiankun Small World by Jing Yan. In the Qiankun Small World, no matter how fast or agile the Xuanqing Spirit Body was, it was securely within Jing Yan’s grasp.

As for High Grade Xuanqing Spirit Bodies, unfortunately, even though they were encountered several times, not once were they captured successfully.

On this day, Jing Yan continued to fly through the void.

"According to the Void Star Chart’s markings, here... I should soon enter the safe haven of the Jade Stream Divine Domain." Jing Yan’s dark pupils gazed into the vast, dim Endless Void.

"It’s not easy indeed! In just these five short years, I’ve consumed resources worth over ten billion Divine Crystals." Jing Yan thought with emotion.

Flying in the Endless Void, one must use Divine Power to resist the Void Yin Wind, leading to massive consumption of Divine Power, which Martial Artists must constantly replenish. This is with Jing Yan having the Daluo Immortal Body; without it, consumption would at least double.

"Oh!"

In the moment while Jing Yan was suspended in the void, lost in thought, a sudden shriek came from ahead.

Jing Yan focused slightly and saw a Xuanqing Spirit Body rushing towards him at an astonishing speed.

"What’s going on?"

"Could the Xuanqing Spirit Body be attempting to attack me?" Witnessing this scene, Jing Yan couldn’t help but be taken aback. He had encountered Xuanqing Spirit Bodies so many times, whether High Grade, Mid Grade, or Low Grade, every time they detected a human, they’d immediately flee.

Never before had he encountered a Xuanqing Spirit Body charged towards a human.

Moreover, though Xuanqing Spirit Bodies are difficult to capture, they indeed lack combat ability.

"A Low Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body?"

"Hehe, since you’re coming at me by yourself, then I won’t be polite!" Jing Yan unleashed a Gravity Domain, following it with a fierce operation of his Divine Soul.

The Low Grade Xuanqing Spirit Body seemed to be suddenly bogged down, and amidst its struggles, it was easily caught in Jing Yan’s hand.

"Hmm?" Before Jing Yan could put the Xuanqing Spirit Body into the Qiankun Small World, a silhouette rapidly approached from afar.

That person also saw Jing Yan, noticeably slowing down. Upon nearing, they completely stopped, exchanging glances with Jing Yan.

Jing Yan stared at the other person, remaining silent.

"Daoist, the Xuanqing Spirit Body in your hand is the one I was pursuing," the person spoke with a dry laugh, taking the initiative to break the silence as Jing Yan kept quiet.

Actually, upon seeing this martial artist, Jing Yan had already understood. Earlier he was perplexed as to why the Xuanqing Spirit Body had rushed straight at him. It turns out the Xuanqing Spirit Body wasn’t trying to hit him; it was being pursued by another human martial artist and fled in panic, coincidentally running into Jing Yan, allowing him to easily capture it.

"Is that so?" Jing Yan’s eyes flickered.

This Martial Artist was also in the Nine Stars True God realm, so Jing Yan wasn’t concerned about his safety. He had already taken down someone like Rui Yi, a Quasi Main God, what was there to fear from a Nine Stars True God Martial Artist?

If this Nine Stars True God Warrior was rude or even attacked, Jing Yan would unhesitatingly store away the Xuanqing Spirit Body and teach the other how to behave properly.
