Da Xuan Martial Saint
Chapter 924 - 477 Comprehension Atlas_2

However, for Chen Mu.

His martial body completely devoured and digested the demon blood, yet it brought no change to the martial body itself. The demonic power within the demon blood couldn't shake his body in the slightest, nor could it alter his physical form whatsoever.

"The Great Dao unites all, myriad methods are one..."

Feeling the changes happening within his body, Chen Mu couldn't help but mutter to himself.

As the saying goes, with differing realms comes a different height of perception, and thus a different viewpoint. In the past, he had regarded the various evil methods of the Sky Demon Sect and Heavenly Corpse Sect as mere side paths, unworthy of consideration.

But at his current level, looking back, he suddenly realized that whether it's the evil methods of the Sky Demon Sect, the secret techniques of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, or the martial arts of Body Refining... all things in the world become undifferentiated at this stage.

Whether human body or demon body.

All are born into this world.

To transcend Heaven and Earth, ultimately everyone walks the same path, shedding the mortal body, shedding the human body, shedding the demon body to transform into an Immortal Divine Body. Every living being in this realm, at the last step, follows the same road.

However.

Chen Mu quickly shook his head slightly.

Though humans, demons, and the half-human, half-demon methods of the Sky Demon Sect show no difference at the last step, the Sky Demon Sect's practice of using human bodies as food for demons is considered an evil path in the worldly view.

The most crucial point is that the evil methods of the Sky Demon Sect taint the Soul Heart Will during cultivation, gradually turning it demonic, and to transcend the heavens, cultivating into the God Realm, both will and Soul Heart are indispensable powers.

Abandoning will for the sake of physique is indeed a deviation from the path.

Even if one achieves Demon-Human Unity and all methods become one, crafting an Immortal Divine Body, the distorted soul and will still cannot transcend the heavens, ultimately leading to one's demise.

It can only be said that on the path of physical cultivation, the last step is undistinguished, but regarding the soul and will, it is a dead end road, from the moment one forsakes humanity, transcendence becomes impossible.

Glub, glub!!

A large amount of demon blood was continuously devoured by Chen Mu's body.

Now these demon bloods, by essence, can no longer refine his physique, and serve merely as energy for refining. Yet the system panel still accepted them, converting it into accumulated Experience Points.

If before reaching Blood Refinement Perfection, Chen Mu could barely manage some degree of Martial Blood cultivation by refining these demon bloods, at this step without the system panel, these demon bloods would hold no significance for him.

After devouring, it merely disintegrated the demonic power to its fundamental Power of Heaven and Earth, absorbed into the depths of his body, stored as energy, not capable of refining.

After stepping into Blood Refinement Perfection, Chen Mu's speed of devouring demon blood became incredibly fast.

Previously, he relied more on demon blood for refinement, now instead it's a comprehensive devour and digest, fundamentally two concepts. The demon blood poured from the Qiankun Bottle continuously swallowed by his body, turning his physique into a bottomless abyss, devouring everything.

Soon.

All Azure Dragon demon blood was devoured, and Chen Mu switched to the remaining White Tiger demon blood.

Just like the Azure Dragon drinking water, the torrent of demon blood was consumed greedily by his flesh, the entire process taking only a short half a month, consuming all remaining demon blood completely!

[Physique: Blood Refinement (Perfection)]

[Experience: 1761 points]

Chen Mu summoned the system panel for a glance, and saw the accumulated Experience Points hadn't diminished much.

"Not bad."

He nodded slightly, exhaled a turbid breath, and started extracting other Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items from the Qiankun Bottle, such as the Taiyang Fruit, Supreme Yin Water, and other rare items of the world, arranging them one by one.

These treasures, even for a martial artist in the Blood Exchange Realm, can produce some effects in refining martial blood, being the most top-notch Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items this realm can currently produce. Even in Da Xuan's Mansion Treasury, the stock isn't vast.

Without hesitation.

Chen Mu seized a Taiyang Fruit and swallowed it directly.

This is the fruit of Supreme Yang, containing Pure Yang Power, said not to originate from earthly birth, but born beside that solar disk in the heavens, on a meteorite orbiting the solar disk.

Only during cosmic upheaval, when a meteorite falls to earth, can it be acquired from the meteorite, making it truly a Supreme Yang object, greatly beneficial to martial artists cultivating the Taiyin branch of the Path of Yin and Yang and quite effective for the Separating Fire branch as well.

Of course.

For Chen Mu, who cultivates the Qiankun Path, all things of the world can be of use.

Actually, the reason these rare Spiritual Objects were left in Da Xuan's Mansion Treasury, unused, is because successive emperors of Da Xuan cultivated different paths, often just taking the branch suitable for them.

The only one who could meld all resources for personal use, Ji Yongzhao, hadn't managed to deploy all these resources before falling at his hands; otherwise, Chen Mu might not have found so many Blood Refinement Spiritual Items in Da Xuan's cache.

Indeed.

Chen Mu couldn't help but suspect these Spiritual Objects were prepared by Ji Yongzhao for himself!

After all, Ji Yongzhao knew many secrets, not only knowing the God Realm, but also knowing the Divine Under Ninth Rank, and knowing the path to the God Realm requires dual cultivation of soul and body, pushing both to their utmost extremes.
