Chapter 0676 Opportunity to Transform into the Moon

**Chapter 0676: The Moon Transformation Opportunity**

Qin Yun didn’t dwell on it and said, “I don’t know what the issue is. Maybe I need a different kind of breakthrough to achieve spiritual transformation into the moon!”

“Could be! If you find Yang Shiyue, she might be able to help you.” Bingxing said, “Your spiritual cultivation has also hit a bottleneck. Even I can’t help you any further. Our training together ends here.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Yun’s vision flashed, and he found himself back beside the immortal pool in the Celestial Armory Realm.

Bingxing wasn’t there—she had already left the realm.

Qin Yun quickly exited the Celestial Armory Realm as well, waking up in his room.

“It’s unbelievable. I entered someone’s dream from the Celestial Armory Realm. What a bizarre experience!”

Reflecting on it, Qin Yun still found the whole thing amazing.

“Deep down, Bingxing still trusts you, and she really cares about you!” Ling Yuner giggled. “Thinking of making her yours? She’s a genuine celestial maiden, after all!”

“Cut it out!”

He had only lain down for a day, but within the Celestial Armory Realm, under Bingxing’s guidance, he had entered the Sun Moon Celestial Bed’s temporal realm, so his consciousness had experienced an entire year.

“If I were to lie on that Sun Moon Celestial Bed with Sister Bingxing, we could experience two years’ time!”

After getting out of bed, Qin Yun hurried to bathe and changed into blue robes before heading to the Immortal Armory Hall.

He arrived at the hall in haste and saw Bingxing sitting beside the immortal pool, cultivating by absorbing immortal energy. Qin Yun walked over and smiled. “Sister Bingxing, do you need any Nine Cycles Celestial Power now?”

"No need, I can practice with you in tandem; it should be faster this way!" Bing Xing said, "We will practice together on the Sun Moon Immortal Bed without entering the Sun Moon Space-Time Realm. Just through the bed, we can absorb more immortal qi!"

"Alright!"

Qin Yun became excited instantly and followed Bing Xing into the immortal pool below, entering the source of immortality, where they both sat on the Sun Moon Immortal Bed.

"I'll start!" Bing Xing extended her hand.

Qin Yun had always wanted to practice with Bing Xing, absorbing the Ninefold Immortal Power to strengthen his body. Now, his wish was finally granted.

Bing Xing activated the Sun Moon Heart Sutra, and Qin Yun entered the state of joint cultivation with her.

It was Qin Yun's first time absorbing immortal qi at the source of immortality, and he was surprised by how fast the absorption rate was.

"This is Sister Bing Xing guiding the immortal qi over. The speed of your joint cultivation is indeed very fast!" Ling Yun'er said, "Xiao Yun, you must seize this opportunity. Once she practices with you for some time, she won't resist you anymore, then... hehehe..."

"Hehe, you dirty mind!"

Qin Yun muttered under his breath. He didn't know what was wrong with his Dao Spirit, who was usually such a delicate little fairy but always had some rather naughty thoughts.

After feeling a large amount of immortal qi enter his body, Qin Yun used the Nine Yang Divine Soul to quickly convert the immortal qi into Ninefold Immortal Power, which then flowed into Bing Xing's body, circulating continuously between them.

Each cycle made the Ninefold Immortal Power stronger, improving its quality. Especially after flowing through Bing Xing's body, it always brought out a powerful immortal force that refined Qin Yun's body.

In reality, their joint cultivation gave them a sense of close connection, allowing them to feel each other's heartbeats—a very wonderful and magical sensation.

After practicing together for a few days, Qin Yun felt a significant improvement.

"At this rate, you should be able to cultivate an immortal body much faster!"

Bingxing could also feel the benefits of the Nine Cycles Celestial Power, so this was beneficial for both of them.

"Yep, I'm heading out to participate in the Martial Arts Championship!" Qin Yun said happily with a chuckle.

Bingxing led Qin Yun out of the Immortal Essence and emerged aboveground.

"Sister Bingxing, I’ll definitely grow stronger quickly and help you retrieve that star in the Immortal Barrens!" Qin Yun vowed resolutely.

"No need. Just focus on yourself," Bingxing replied coldly.

Qin Yun didn’t say anything more and turned away, walking toward the gate.

Bingxing watched his departing back with complex emotions in her gaze, then softly sighed.

...

After leaving the Celestial Armory Hall, Qin Yun hurried to a large hall within the Protectorate Hall.

Here, many disciples of the Protectorate had gathered, all at the mid- to late-stage Lingwu Realm.

Upon arriving, he saw Jian Ruyan, Yue Bufeng, and Long Qiaofeng.

"You… you all made breakthroughs?" Qin Yun looked at the three of them in surprise.

"You actually didn't break through?!" Jian Ruyan was equally shocked. "Don’t you have the Yuanling Mystic Pill and plenty of Star Dao Pills?"

Granny Ma and Bao Changshou were also present. Sensing that Qin Yun was still at the early Spiritual Martial Realm, they found this puzzling.

If one advanced to the mid Spiritual Martial Realm and cultivated the Yuanling Dao, their aura would carry a faint trace of Yuanling aura.

"My mental energy cultivation is a bit special," Qin Yun sighed. "That’s why I’ve stagnated at this level! You all advised me not to achieve Lunar Spiritualization, but now breaking through is really difficult!"

Bao Changshou said, "Qin Yun, reconsider—abandon your current mental energy cultivation and start over. With the Supreme Elder’s help, you can definitely rebuild your mental energy steadily!"

"No way!"

Qin Yun had already reached an impasse. All he needed was the proper catalyst or some guidance to successfully achieve Lunar Spiritualization.

"Qin Yun, are you truly confident you can resist the invasion of corrupt Yin energies?" Jian Ruyan asked with concern.

"Of course I am!" Qin Yun chuckled. "By the way, what’s the latest with the Martial Arts Championship?"

Granny Ma said, "The rules have been revised… They said too many early Spiritual Martial Realm disciples have been injured or killed, so mid- to late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples are now allowed to participate."

"Doesn’t that leave me outmatched?" Qin Yun frowned. He was only at the early Spiritual Martial Realm.

"Qin Yun, no need to fret! I’ll definitely defeat Brother Hu and take first place!" Jian Ruyan patted Qin Yun’s shoulder. "Given your current state, you might not qualify to represent our Immortal Weapon City in the competition."

Qin Yun glanced at the group of mid- to late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples and snorted, "What kind of joke is this? Even though I’m at the early Spiritual Martial Realm, I’ve still defeated late-stage Lingwu Realm Immortal Disciples. How could I not qualify to represent Immortal Weapon City?"

"But those Immortal Disciples weren’t that strong! The reason I lost to one before was because I wasn’t prepared. Otherwise, I could’ve defeated them too!" Jian Ruyan sniffed dismissively.

Granny Ma said, "Qin Yun, no need to fret. As long as you pass our test, you can still participate!"

The mid- to late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples of the Protectorate all sported haughty looks, believing that even Jian Ruyan couldn’t compare to them.

"There are only four slots," Granny Ma continued. "The test method is simple—a trial of comprehensive skill for all of you."

Qin Yun was very confident about this kind of test.

"The first item—Dao Force test! This will measure the intensity of your Dao Force!" Granny Ma took out a squishy-looking bead.

"You must squeeze this bead with all your strength. It will emit four types of light: blue, silver, gold, and purple. Only those who can make it glow gold will pass the first test!" Granny Ma announced.

In the hall, fifty disciples were taking the test. All were outstanding individuals in the mid to late stages of the Lingwu Realm and disciples of the Guardian Hall.

They lined up one by one to squeeze the bead.

Qin Yun noticed that many mid-stage Lingwu Realm disciples strained with all their might but could only make the bead emit silver light.

Late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples had to strain just to produce golden light.

More than thirty mid-stage Lingwu Realm disciples were eliminated!

Finally, it was Jian Ruyan's turn. She gripped the bead, gave a sharp exhale, and poured her strongest Hunyuan Dao Force into her fist before squeezing the bead with full force.

The bead first turned silver, then gradually shifted to gold—its brightness rivaling that of late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples!

"Jian Ruyan, passed the first test!" Granny Ma declared with great satisfaction.

Jian Ruyan wore a look of pride and flashed a triumphant smirk at Qin Yun.

The eliminated mid-stage Lingwu Realm disciples hung their heads in shame, as Jian Ruyan, who had just broken through, already rivaled them in Dao Force.

Next were Long Qiaofeng and Yue Bufeng. Though they had only recently advanced, they too could make the bead glow gold, though not as brightly as Jian Ruyan.

"My turn!" Qin Yun rolled up his sleeves and chuckled. "Can't be that hard, right?"

"Qin Yun, take this seriously. It's difficult—I nearly broke my bones just now!" Jian Ruyan snapped.

"It's not easy at all!" Yue Bufeng's face was still pale from exerting his full strength in an instant burst to make the bead glow gold.

Qin Yun shot back, "I've killed Immortal Disciples, you know? I might even crush this bead!"

Jian Ruyan raised a skeptical eyebrow. "You're only at the early Spiritual Martial Realm. However strong you might be, the gold light won't be much brighter than mine."

"If I can make this bead turn purple, you'll have to call me 'Brother Yun' from now on—and no more scolding!" Qin Yun grinned.

"If you can actually do it, fine!" Jian Ruyan waved it off, not believing he could make the bead glow purple.

Qin Yun took the bead, gave a low grunt, and unleashed the power within his Bone Spirit, condensing the Nine Extremes Hunyuan Force.

His body immediately radiated waves of energy, making the hall shudder with wind.

The bead instantly turned gold, then gradually shifted to purple, blazing with violet light.

Everyone's hair lashed about wildly as they gaped in astonishment at the glowing purple bead!

Qin Yun's Dao Force was even stronger than that of late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples!

The late-stage Lingwu Realm disciples felt like all their training meant nothing.

"Qin Yun, that's enough!" Granny Ma quickly shouted. "That bead is expensive and difficult to make!"

Qin Yun immediately stopped.

"Good, it didn't break!" Granny Ma hurried over to inspect the bead.

Qin Yun wiped his nose smugly and grinned at Jian Ruyan. "Well, Yan-mei, how's your Brother Yun's strength?"

"You... you monster!" Jian Ruyan was completely crushed. She had thought that after breaking through to the mid-stage Lingwu Realm, she could easily best Qin Yun without even crossing blows.

But before any fight began, she had already lost.
