Keyboard Immortal-Chapter 2539: Seven-Colored Divine Halo

The dangerous tribulation clouds morphed into colorful auspicious clouds, and the sky rained flower petals. These weren’t real petals, however, but immense aggregations of ki manifested in the shape of petals.

Bathing in them, Zu An felt his cells cheering in exuberance. He had never been immersed in such rich ki before. It was unlike the usual surrounding ki. It was much purer and more soothing. Every breath he took reminded him of the sensation he'd felt when he first drank the Feather Mountain Spring Water.

“Is this the legendary immortal ki?” Zu An wondered.

His body was undergoing a massive change. It had already surpassed those of ordinary cultivators, perhaps even exceeding those of dragons, due to him previously tempering his body with the Primordial Origin Sutra. But now, it was still growing stronger. It wasn't just a simple stats enhancement, but a metamorphosis. His skin shone with a faint luster reminiscent of the moonlight, and he felt as if every part of his body was resonating with the surrounding ki without the slightest impediment.

It was as if he had become a part of the world.

Zu An realized that he might have achieved the legendary ‘Indestructible Body’. Not only did he now boast incredible defensive prowess, his body could also regrow without limits as long as his soul remained intact.

He had no way of knowing for sure, but he didn’t think most deities had reached this level. At the very least, Er Fu, Wei Yueyan, and Gu hadn't.

Just then, Zu An heard a divine symphony. A golden celestial palace appeared in midair. Its doors slowly opened, and a golden light shone down on him.

He thought that it was yet another tribulation and was about to put up his guard when he sensed no danger from the golden light. On the contrary, it felt comfortable to be basked in it.

The distant Mermaid Queen asked Yumen Beiqing, “What’s that ray of golden light?”

Somehow, she trusted the judgment of this woman even though the latter was younger than her.

“Those who achieve immortality manifest divine halos. The more colors or the purer their divine halos are, the stronger they will be, and the greater their potential as well,” Yumen Beiqing replied while keeping a close eye on Zu An. She was curious how many colors the latter’s divine halo would have. fгeewebnovёl.com

The Mermaid Queen thought about how the celestial named Qin had a tricolored divine halo and nodded in partial understanding.

Meanwhile, Zu An’s attention was on a phenomenon inside his body. He sensed a formation inside his mind slowly lighting up, forming a peacock imprint. He was overjoyed. He had cultivated the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra for many years, and he would usually unlock a divine bird ability with each major breakthrough. However, despite having made several breakthroughs, he hadn’t unlocked a new divine bird ability since the Kun Peng.

That had made him wonder if his skill was incomplete, and if it was impossible for him to reach the legendary ninth level. It was only now that he realized that the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra’s scaling was different from ordinary cultivator skills.

It was rumored that it was possible to achieve immortality through the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, but who could have thought that it would be true?

He sensed circles of different colors forming around him. He was curious to know what ability he would receive from the peacock.

“Three, four, five... six, seven?!?!” Yumen Beiqing counted his divine halo colors in shock.

They had spent enough time together for her to know that Zu An was anything but ordinary. There was no way he would manifest just one or two colors for his divine halo when he became a deity. However, she hadn’t expected his divine halo to manifest that many colors!

Isn’t the limit for divine halo five colors? What the heck is a seven-colored divine halo?

It was also at this time that the Keyboard System’s voice echoed in Zu An’s head. “Congratulations on unlocking the Peacock’s ability. The five-colored divine halo allows you to neutralize anything within the Five Elements.”

Zu An’s breathing quickened. Could this be Master Kong Xuan’s Five-Colored Divine Halo from Investiture of the Gods? He could sweep through anyone except for the saints! Thanks to that ability, fans deem him the strongest character beneath the saints!

With this ability, I will be undefeatable!

Just then, the Keyboard System continued, “During the awakening of your ability, you underwent the legendary Seven-Colored Divine Tribulation, causing your Five-Colored Divine Halo to mutate with this world’s origin dao and become a Seven-Colored Divine Halo. You will have to uncover its ability by yourself.”

Zu An was stunned.

Huh? What’s going on? Where’s my Five-Colored Divine Halo? Give me back my Five-Colored Divine Halo!

Even though the Seven-Colored Divine Halo sounded more formidable, given that it had two more colors, there was no way to say whether it followed that logic for sure. What if his ability had become even weaker after the mutation?

There was no way he could be happy when a guaranteed god-level skill pick suddenly turned into another round of gacha draw, where he could end up getting something trashy instead.

However, there was nothing he could do. The only silver lining was that he had finally leveled up. He didn’t stop at level 80—the experience points he had accumulated all this time pushed his level all the way up to level 83! The experience points he needed for each level up had reached a terrifying amount, but fortunately, he had devoured many experts’ energy and had received an immense amount of ki from the heavenly tribulation.

“So this is what power feels like...” Zu An quivered in excitement as he felt the changes in his body. Not only was his ki many times stronger than before, even his grasp of energy had reached a completely new height. If he acquired the World Law Beacon once more, he would be able to exert far greater power than before.

“Big brother Zu, you have reached immortality?” the Mermaid Queen exclaimed in delight. She flew over, looking like she wanted to leap into his embrace, but was hesitant to do so.

Beside her was a conflicted-looking Yumen Beiqing.

“I think so.” Zu An looked at his hands. He still felt like he was in a dream.

“You smell really good now.” The Mermaid Queen’s face reddened.

“An immortal’s body is pure and impeccable. The heavenly tribulation has cleansed all filth; that’s why I smell good now. Do you want to come closer to smell it better?” Zu An regretted those words right away. Under normal circumstances, he would have avoided saying such suggestive words to the Mermaid Queen, but his breakthrough had made him overexcited.

The Mermaid Queen was moved, but with Yumen Beiqing around, she didn’t dare to go too far. Instead, she quickly changed the topic and asked, “Is there any difference now that you have achieved immortality?”

“Other than my deep grasp of ki, the way I see this world is also different now," Zu An replied.

Somehow, the world now looked much more vibrant to him. He could now clearly see many things that he 'd overlooked before, such as the wind trails and the flow of ki. He had gained a deeper insight into the fundamentals of the world.

The Mermaid Queen wanted to ask more questions, but Yumen Beiqing interjected, “How is your divine halo seven-colored? Does it have a special ability?”
