Chapter 693 Thousand Hammering and Hundred Refinements Stepping on the Immortal Court
The flames and lightning of the Jade Level were intended for the evolution of Nirvana Creatures into immortality. Lin Shen, an Ascension Level being who forcibly stepped onto the Jade Level, withstood what only Nirvana Level beings should have been able to endure. Reaching such heights was already a feat shocking to hear of.
If not for possessing a Super Base Form, the flesh and blood beneath his carapace would probably have been burnt to cinders the moment he set foot on the first Jade Level step.
Engulfed in fierce fire and bathed in thunder, Lin Shen moved forward step by step. His body constantly oscillated between damage and repair, each part of him like a red-hot iron block being repeatedly forged by thunderfire.
By the time Lin Shen had reached halfway up the left path, the surface of his body had started to melt, and iron-like molten liquid dripped from him.
Even with the tremendous enhancement from his Innate Skill and being a Contrarian, Lin Shen's body was on the verge of giving out. The Super Base Recast was too slow to fully repair his damaged body.
Fortunately, by this time, the Super Base Change finally entered the cooling stage, and Lin Shen's body abruptly cooled down, white steam rising from him.
Yet, under the terrifying flames and lightning, the steam evaporated instantly.
Lin Shen's body, having endured the dual forging of flame and lightning, had already reached an inconceivable level of strength.
In such a state, the strength of his Super Base Form was so great that even most Nirvana Creatures would struggle to compare.
But not long after Lin Shen continued upwards, his body began to melt again, and the Super Base Recast could no longer keep up with the melting rate.
Clenching his teeth, Lin Shen forcibly initiated Super Base Change once more.
Normally, having just activated Super Base Change, and with its effects still not fully released, it should have been impossible to initiate it a second time, as the body's energy supply would not be able to keep up.
Yet, upon this Jade Level, the World's Force absorbed by the Super Base Pattern was so plentiful that Lin Shen's body could not contain it all.
The World's Force being consumed was far less than that being absorbed, and a huge accumulation of the World's Force within Lin Shen's body, an amount so great and terrifying, forcibly triggered a second Super Base Change.
Lin Shen's already terrifyingly strong body, under the state of Super Base Change, received yet another enhancement. And with the Super Base Change only just initiated, in combination with the Super Base Recast, his wounded body was once again repaired.
Lin Shen's steps didn't halt, one step after another he ascended, his entire being bathed in thunder and flames, resembling a walking thunderfire.
Wei Wufu could no longer see Lin Shen's figure, but only a dazzling orb of light that shifted endlessly, where the flames and the lightning interwove with Lin Shen's splendid radiance, making it unbearable to look directly at.
Wei Wufu stared unblinkingly at the orb, his eyes continuously watered, stung by the brilliance.
Lin Shen's body once more began to drip with iron-melt-like liquid, drop by drop onto the Jade Level, where upon contact it solidified into mercury-colored crystals.
Lin Shen knew he couldn't stop, for if he did, the continuity of the Surfing Step would end, and he would not be able to move even a single step on the Jade Level.
Sustaining his body, which was nearly collapsing, the full exalted name of the Jade Emperor constantly resonated through Lin Shen's mind.
If his body could no longer bear it, he would immediately call out the exalted name of the Jade Emperor.
Fortunately, Lin Shen's body held on until the second Super Base Change was completed, entering the cooling phase.
The body that had almost melted instantly cooled down, Lin Shen's entire body radiating a silver holy luster, moving as if liquid mercury silver light flowed with every gesture.
Now his physical strength had already far surpassed that of Ascenders, even surpassing Nirvana Beings.
The secondary physical tempering by flames and lightning strikes allowed his Super-Base Form, which had completed Super-Base Change and Recast, to reach a strength not meant for his level.
Lin Shen's previous judgments weren't entirely accurate, the completion of Base Mutation was certainly an important foundation for ascending the Jade Level, but Nirvana Attributes were also an indispensable condition.
Under the Super-Base Form, Lin Shen's body was already perfect, but regrettably, he lacked the boost of Nirvana Attributes.@@novelbin@@
Relying solely on his physical resilience, he made his way up; the damage the fire and lightning inflicted on his body was simply too great.
There was still half of the Jade Level left before reaching the gates of the Celestial Court, yet Lin Shen's body, which had been strengthened by a second Super-Base Change, started to soften and melt again.
"Can I do it one more time... just one more time... I will be able to reach the gates of the Celestial Court..." Lin Shen gritted his teeth and initiated Super-Base Change once again.

His body had already gone through two Super-Base Changes, and maintaining this state required a massive amount of energy; the energy consumed by initiating Super-Base Change again was beyond calculation.
The massive World's Force absorbed by the Super Base Pattern was almost completely drained in an instant as Super-Base Change was forcibly initiated again.
With the dazzling brilliance flaring up, Lin Shen took a step forward, the flames and lightning on his body flickering like flowers.
"Almost there... almost there... only a dozen or more steps left..." Wei Wufu's eyes were so swollen that he could barely open them, his face streaked with tears, but he was still staring intently at the blinding orb of light ascending step by step on the Jade Level.
In fact, he couldn't see much; his eyes had long been blinded by the bright light, seeing everything in double images.
The Super Base Pattern continued to absorb the World's Force, but the incoming force was barely keeping up with the consumption of the third Super-Base Change.
Fortunately, just before the energy supply couldn't keep up, the third Super-Base Change finally completed, and following an ultra-fast cooling, Lin Shen's body unexpectedly took on a black mirror-like state.
It wasn't truly black but was rather the effect of silver crystals layering to such an extent they formed a color close to black.
It was like transparent water, which, once deep enough, appears deep blue or even black.
With the flames and lightning that had nearly materialized, eroding Lin Shen's body, it made the black crystal-like carcass begin to drip like a red-hot iron block.
Lin Shen no longer had the strength to use a fourth Super-Base Change, the World's Force could no longer keep up with the drain, maintaining triple Super-Base Change was already very difficult, and he could only grit his teeth and keep climbing, each drop of iron juice falling from his body making him tremble.
"Only seven steps left!" Lin Shen's eyes were starting to blur, which was due to the melting of the outer carapace, losing its transparency and clouding his vision.
One step... two steps... three steps...
Iron juice dripped from Lin Shen's body, and when he stepped onto the last stair and came before the gates of the Celestial Court, all the lightning and flames disappeared.
Wei Wufu's eyes, now swollen to mere slits, finally cleared to see Lin Shen's silhouette.
It could hardly be described with the word "human," resembling more a molten humanoid iron block dripping with molten juice.
The iron juice hit the ground, immediately turning into deep, droplet-shaped black crystals, clinking incessantly.
