Sign In Buddha’s Palm

Chapter 296: The Golden Crow’s Divine Body.

Edited by: Mochiusagi

Inside the Fire Element Source.

When the hundredth light spot lit up, the statue suddenly blossomed with a dazzling light. An ancient, pale aura illuminated the surroundings. It was as if space had become frozen and time had turned backwards.

In a matter of moments, a fire that was far more profound and vast than any flame, burst out of the sun statue from deep in Su Qin’s mind.

“I had to consume a numerous amount of Fire Element pills throughout literal years and devoured a Fire Element Source before finally reaching Small Accomplishment. All of that was for the purpose of condensing this kind of primordial power…”

Su Qin closed his eyes, his thoughts were absorbed into the depths of his mind. He was staring at the sun statue, which was constantly spewing out fire energy.

Even though the difference between the Early Stage of the [Burning Sun Divine Art] and Small Accomplishment was only one level, their power was nowhere near each other.

The former only granted Su Qin a wisp of the aura of the Three-legged Golden Crow, as well as a certain degree of perception and immunity towards fire.

That was all.

Although it was a precious thing to have, it wasn’t that unique. In the last prosperous era, there were many Fire Element treasures that could achieve the same effect.

But the Small Accomplishment of the [Burning Sun Divine Art] allowed Su Qin to inherit some of the natural aptitudes of the Three-legged Golden Crow, a Divine Beast! Even the weakest of it’s kind could shake the world. At this moment, Su Qin’s body also naturally began to have some kind of ‘transformation’ in the direction of a Fire Element beast.

While Su Qin’s thoughts were rapidly turning, the Fire Essence that emerged from the depths of the sun statue was rapidly merging into Su Qin’s flesh.

[Boom~]!!!

Su Qin only felt a pang in his mind, then he saw a scene akin to that of the Heavens and Earth being born.

Immediately afterwards, Fire Essence continued to pour in Su Qin’s flesh. It continued until a thunder-like sound rolled. His entire body then began to expand, as if there was a more vast power looking inside.

“My body is being ‘transformed’?”

Su Qin’s face changed slightly.

Once the [Burning Sun Divine Art] was completed, he could transform into the Three-legged Golden Crow. A Human body couldn’t possibly contain such power, even if it was just a hatchling. Hence, his body needed to be transformed from the inside out.

This transformation was not a complete one, so Su Qin will not turn into another race. Instead, it would just continuously refine his body until it’s strong enough to be the power of the Divine Beast.

Of course, this process was slow and only started from the Small Accomplishment.

Just as Su Qin was perceiving the changes in himself.

[Boom~]!!!

Su Qin’s hands suddenly exploded, pieces of flesh and blood were sent flying away. However, the next moment, a large number of Fire Essence poured in, constantly reorganizing Su Qin’s body.

In a few moments, a pair of white jade-like hands ‘grew’ out. He felt like his slender fingers could easily manipulate the power of fire. Along with the re-coalescence of his hands, the entire Fire Element Source trembled violently with an influx of fire energy.

“This is?”

Su Qin looked incredulously at his reformed hands.

His hands were basically the same as before, but in subtle ways, they had changed. It was through these changes, that Su Qin had a feeling that he had mastered the power of fire.

Although Su Qin was able to forcefully master fire before, by using his domain and Primordial Spirit, again, it was forced. Once Su Qin’s control of those two things were gone, his control over fire would immediately dissipate.

But at this moment, with these newly formed hands, Su Qin felt as though he was a God of Fire. He was able to command it without needing to use even a trace of his domain or Primordial Spirit. It was simply unbelievable!

However, it didn’t end there.

Before Su Qin could react, his two arms also exploded into a bloody mess. Just like with what happened with his hands, with the incessant influx of Fire Essence, both his arms quickly regained their original shape. They became even more slender and powerful, now feeling as if it was linked to the endless Fire Element present in the Heavens and Earth.

Next, his feet exploded, then calves, the thighs, the torso, the chest…

The process repeated itself in every part of Su Qin’s body. It was as if he was suffering the world’s most cruel punishment. Even with Su Qin’s willpower, he still felt the immense pain. Even more, with the infusion of the power of fire, his perception was elevated. Basically magnifying the pain he was feeling by a hundred times!

This was the change brought about by the Small Accomplishment of the [Burning Sun Divine Art].

Su Qin’s body would begin to ‘transform’, metamorphosing, as it reassembled and re-consolidating itself to house the power of the Three-legged Golden Crow.

Time passed slowly.

At this moment, although Su Qin did not look different, there was a great change in the subtleties. Numerous subtle changes were superimposed upon each other, making Su Qin feel like a God of Fire. He was exuding a hot and violent aura. Especially between his eyebrows, where a round of imprinting faintly emerged – communicating with the power of fire in the Heavens and Earth.

“Is this the Small Accomplishment of the [Burning Sun Divine Art]?”

Su Qin slowly opened his eyes.

His pupils were pitch black, but in the depths of his pupils was a burning sun; constantly emitting an extremely terrifying aura.

Su Qin stood up and looked at his hands again.

They were now smooth and delicate, like that of a scholar. But when he waved them, the power of fire naturally began to surround it, as if they had seen their Emperor and began worshipping it.

“At this moment, I think my Body is already a Dharma Body…”

Su Qin sighed softly, with an inexplicable emotion on his face.

The Dharma Body that he longed for was naturally achieved after the [Burning Sun Divine Art] reached the Small Accomplishment.

“No.”

“My body should be beyond a Dharma Body. It would be more appropriate to call it the Golden Crow Divine Body.”

Su Qin thought silently in his heart.

After the process was completed, new memories popped into his mind. This kind of memory was similar to an inheritance memory. Despite appearing out of thin air, it was deeply rooted in Su Qin’s mind, as if he had experienced it.

In this new memory, Su Qin knew that his body, which had been ‘transformed’ by the power of fire, was very different from the Dharma Body that had been subjected to the ocean of vitality.

It was more inclined to the Golden Crow Divine Body.

The so-called Golden Crow Divine Body was a kind of constitution, that’s equivalent to the other direction of the Dharma Body.

“Unfortunately, I’m still far from reaching Great Accomplishment.”

Su Qin’s mind merged into his mind and glanced at the sun statue.

Among the 10,000 light spots, 100 light spots on the edge have been completely lit up, which was also a sign of the Small Accomplishment of the [Burning Sun Divine Art].

But if Su Qin wanted to complete the [Burning Sun Divine Art], he would need to light up the remaining 9,900 light spots as well!

According to Su Qin’s experience of lighting up 100 light spots, the resources needed to cultivate the Divine Art to Great Accomplishment would be 100 times more than the Early Stage and Small Accomplishment.

Su Qin had Signed In for more than 10 years and barely managed to Cultivate the [Burning Sun Divine Art] to Small Accomplishment. Meaning, Great Accomplishment would literally take him more than 1,000 years to reach!

Of course, this was not counting Su Qin’s strength getting stronger.

As Su Qin’s strength continues to get stronger, he’ll be able to travel to more dangerous places to Sign In. Of which, the harvest obtained would naturally be far better. Even so, in Su Qin’s estimation, without a few decades to hundreds of years, he simply does not think that he will achieve the Great Accomplishment.

“Let’s see what kind of changes there are in the Small Accomplishment.”

Su Qin slowly closed his eyes, feeling all of the movement in all directions.

He was able to manipulate the power of the fire and feel everything within a few hundred miles. It ranged from the aura of Legends, down to the whispering of ants and flies. They were as if they were close to his ears.

Su Qin even felt his body integrating into the power of fire. He figured that even if he just slept, a large amount of Fire Essence would keep pouring in, slowly improving his Cultivation.

“Ancient records stated that some Divine Beast cubs do not need to Cultivate at all. They just sleep all day long. When they become adults, they would naturally have the power to destroy the Heavens and Earth…”

Su Qin opened his eyes, wearing an astonished expression.

His original thought of this claim back then was that it was just false. After all, the Martial Dao was taken one step at a time. How was it possible to improve Cultivation just by sleeping?

But now, with what he’s experiencing now, Su Qin believed most of it.

He currently only acquired part of the Three Legged Golden Crow’s innate talent, and yet he already had this gradual improvement effect. So how terrifying would it be for those cubs, who really inherited all of the divine talent of a Divine Beast?

“Alas, this kind of enhancement is not suitable for me, it’s too slow.”

Su Qin shook his head slightly and thought silently in his heart.

According to his current rate of improvement, even if he does not do anything and just sleep, in a few hundred years, he would be able to naturally enter the Earth Immortal Realm.

But a few hundred years was enough for Su Qin to impact the higher realms, so why waste it on sleeping?

“And the sun…”

Su Qin slowly raised his head and looked into the sky.

Although the Fire Element Source was blocking it, Su Qin could still feel the sun hanging in the sky.

At this moment, Su Qin looked at the sun and a desire to get closer to it suddenly rose in his heart.

Of course, Su Qin stopped himself from continuing in this line of thought.

Su Qin knew that the reason why he felt this way was the instinct he had obtained after Cultivating the [Burning Sun Divine Art]. Especially so when it reached the Small Accomplishment and his body had been transformed into a Golden Crow Divine Body.

How high was the temperature of the sun? Even with Su Qin’s current [Burning Sun Divine Art], he was not a Three-legged Golden Crow and far from being able to withstand the temperature of the sun.

“That’s right.”

“I should now have some of the natural talents of the Three-legged Golden Crow.”

Su Qin suddenly thought of something and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The Golden Crow Divine Body was the result of the transformation after the [Burning Sun Divine Art] reached the Small Accomplishment, so it should not be counted as one of the natural divine abilities.

In other words, apart from the Golden Crow Divine Body, Su Qin had mastered at least one other ability.

Take the Magic Powers, whose benefits Su Qin had thoroughly enjoyed over the years. He had only acquired a few Magic Power after Signing In for decades, which showed how precious these abilities were.

Thinking of this, Su Qin slowly closed his eyes and felt the aura in his body.

In his meridians, was a flowing river of True Essence that was exuding a hot aura. It was like a burning dragon that was constantly flowing in Su Qin’s body.

Su Qin had a feeling that at this moment, his True Essence’s destructive power should have been greatly increased. Against a normal Peak Legend, a slight touch of his True Essence would easily ignite the former.

“It’s understandable why my True Essence is leaning towards the Fire Element. After all, my body is already a Golden Crow Divine Body. Affecting the attribute of my True Essence is normal.”

“However, I want to know, other than these changes, what other abilities has the [Burning Sun Divine Art] brought me.”

Su Qin was looking forward to this.

The more the better, the better.

“I don’t want an ability like the fire of the sun or an indestructible body. Just give me an offensive Fire type ability!”

Su Qin thought silently in his heart.

The only Magic Power he had that could barely be considered as offensive was [Calling Wind, Summoning Rain], which was an AOE(Area of Effect attack). The rest were support types.

However, [Calling Wind, Summoning Rain]was only effective against those with lower strength than Su Qin, and was not very effective against those of the same level.

[Rumble~]

When Su Qin immersed himself into his body, deep in his eyes, a slowly burning sun suddenly rose rapidly. A terrifying heat then emerged, so much so that even the physical form of the Fire Element Source (the mountain of flames) near Su Qin began to melt.

“This is?”

Su Qin hurriedly stopped what he was doing and he instantly focused on his eyes.

‘An Eye Magic Power?’

Su Qin’s heart moved slightly.

Strictly speaking, the [Eyes of Truth] that he had could only observe Internal Qi. It cannot increase Su Qin’s strength and combat power.

But the one that Su Qin had just activated was terrifying to the extreme. It didn’t even completely activate, but it was already able to melt the physical form of the Fire Element Source.

It was important to note that the Fire Element Source was formed by the Heavens and Earth. Naturally, it had a reasonable degree of tolerance towards heat and high temperatures. To think that it was being melted and at such a rapid pace! This just shows the horror of this new Magic Power.

“Not bad at all!”

Su Qin was satisfied, and turned his head towards the outside.

“Now that the [Burning Sun Divine Art] has reached the Small Accomplishment, there is no need to stay here. It is time to leave…”

Su Qin took a step forward and disappeared.
