Chapter 519: Dragged Into Soul Cultivation
True Lord Thunder was a being whose entire body gleamed like glass—no trace of flesh or blood could be seen upon him.
That was because ninety-nine percent of his body had been replaced with artifacts.
Countless spirit-energy conduits extended from the ground and walls, linking into his body to transmit torrents of spiritual energy and data.
Layer upon layer of array light veiled him completely, obscuring every detail.
It was said that True Lord Thunder had long stopped moving his physical body, remaining seated in his office year after year, venturing only with his divine sense through the Spiritual Realm to project avatars elsewhere.
But to Zhang Yu, the motionless figure before him looked less like a man and more like a statue in a temple.
Zhang Yu knew that True Lord Thunder followed the Artifact School of the Artifact Refinement Department—the old-fashioned faction Feng Tingting had mentioned before. They regarded flesh as obsolete and saw Law Husks as the true path forward, believing the human body should be wholly mechanized for the Immortal Dao’s evolution.
Zhang Yu had no opinion on that. His understanding of both the Immortal Dao and artifact refinement wasn’t deep enough to judge.
Right now, his concern was: “This True Lord Thunder doesn’t have some kind of flesh-body discrimination problem, does he?”
