After a long silence, Lie Xiao suddenly stood up, his eyes seeming to burst into flames.
"At this point, there's no choice but to fight with everything we've got. The leader of the Evil Scorpion Tribe has already contacted me once and revealed his rebellious intentions. Our Fiery Holy Ant Tribe is not the first to be suppressed; other large tribes also harbor discontent. As long as we unite, it is not impossible to overthrow the tribal kingdom and reshape the world!"
With these words, he strode out of the shrine, beginning to make urgent preparations for rebellion.
Chu Xuan observed quietly, lost in thought.
Lie Xin's death had been expected. After all, many years had passed since then. It was natural for Lie Xin to pass the leadership of the Fiery Holy Ant Tribe to Lie Xiao and for Lie Chen to assist him in the King of Myriad Insects' Palace. However, the current situation was clearly far from clear-cut.
"The Monarch of Myriad Insects is not simple. I remember he once suppressed the Fiery Holy Ant Tribe beforeโduring that time, Lie Xin suffered severe injuries and his vitality was greatly damaged. And now, he's acting again, clearly trying to push the Fiery Holy Ant Tribe to the brink of destruction."
Chu Xuan clicked his tongue in amazement. The workings of the mind had little to do with cultivation or realm. Whether it was Blue Star, Soul Star, or the Cave World, there were always individuals of extraordinary wisdom.
Nascent Soul cultivators and even Deity Transformation experts, though mighty, were not immune to foolishness. Thus, Chu Xuan never underestimated the intelligent life of these three worlds.
"I will not intervene in this battle. Let's see how Lie Xiao handles it. Even if the Monarch of Myriad Insects wins, the shard of the mirror should fall into his hands."
Chu Xuan did not mind switching hosts, nor did he have any intention of aiding Lie Xiao. Letting go of the desire to help others and respecting their fate was the best approach. It was beneficial for both others and himself. ๐ง๐ณ๐ฆโฏ๐๐ฆ๐ท๐ฏ๐๐ฃ๐ฆ๐.๐ธ๐ฐ๐
With that thought, Chu Xuan withdrew his spiritual sense and focused entirely on body refinement.
...
Ten years later
Chu Xuan's body refinement realm naturally reached the forty-first level! At that moment, the roar of a giant beast resounded from his body, shaking the heavens above! Endless blood energy erupted from his pores, swiftly forming the ethereal image of a giant beast.
Its long trunk seemed capable of curling up the starry heavens. Its massive hooves appeared as though they could crush mountains and rivers. The beast's sharp teeth were primal and wild, as if they could pierce through any defense. The people on Blue Star heard this earth-shattering roar and rushed out in a frenzy to witness the spectacle.
"Wow, what a fierce monster! It looks like an elephant, just... a bit bigger."
"Is that really 'a bit'? It's clearly a billion times bigger! It must be some kind of immortal's technique. Immortals are truly amazing."
"Coach, I want to learn that!"
...
Inside the Water Curtain Cave.
Chu Xuan exhaled softly, retracting the image of the dragon-elephant. This was the new ability granted by reaching the forty-first level of body refinement.

Vitality Shaping!
In simple terms, it meant condensing his vitality into various forms to combat enemies. At present, however, it could only manifest as visualized objects.
Having practiced both the Giant Elephant Body Refining Technique and the Thousand Refinements Dragon Elephant Technique, Chu Xuan's initial visualizations were of the giant elephant and the dragon elephant.
