Chapter 134: Seclude oneself in 123 Chapters, wishing for Great Success

The night was deep and people were silent, the bright moon hung high, and the stars were shining brilliantly.

Under the starry sky, the pure radiance spilled over the earth, and the endless stars congealed into a dazzling Milky Way, the azure sky was clear, and one could see very distinctly.

Deep within the hundred thousand mountains, in a secluded valley, far from human habitation, various wild animals were hopping and darting about, a stream so clear that the bottom could be seen flowed independently, full of unique vitality.

Upon a Dao Platform, Ye Chen sat cross-legged, eyes tightly shut. With each breath, streams of nature’s spiritual energy emerged, filling the space with a shimmering Holy Light that entered his body.

All of this was not mere cultivation, but rather Ye Chen’s preparation for achieving Great Success with the Human Origin Body Technique. He intended to bring himself to his peak condition before secluding himself to break through fully into the realm of Great Success.

This retreat was of utmost importance. For Ye Chen, there was no room for failure. Once he steps into Great Success, in this reborn land of strangers, he would truly have a solid foothold, capable of becoming a power in his own right.

But his ambition was not small, he wished not only to merely establish himself in the realm of Human Origin Body Technique Great Success, but also to make other breakthroughs.

The sky was filled with consistently emerging nature’s spiritual energy. Ye Chen absorbed the spiritual essence and slowly adjusted his state on the Dao Platform. After a full day of tuning, his essence, Qi, and spirit had all completely reached the state of Absolute Peak.

The moment he opened his eyes, it was like thunder streaking across the sky, brightening the world around, one could feel how strong his spirit, Qi, and essence were. Distant demon beasts and wild beasts all felt an oppressive sensation and instinctively fled.

His eyes shone with brightness, his innate vitality was full, this was the manifestation of the spirit, Qi, and essence at their peak.

In Ye Chen’s palm, two Martial God Demon Cores, each as big as an adult’s fist, suddenly materialized. One was silver and flashed with electric sparks, the Martial God Demon Core of the Octagonal Green Bull, containing the power of the Thunder Attribute.

The other blue Martial God Demon Core, which he had bid for at an auction, emitted a strong and gentle energy that could be distinctly felt.

Each Martial God Demon Core contained some of the Daoist Rules power that the Martial God Demon Beast had comprehended during its life, like the Octagonal Green Bull which had grasped the way of thunder, and the Sea Demon that understood the way of water.

Feeling the surging Martial God Energy within the two Martial God Demon Cores, Ye Chen took a long breath, his eyes ablaze with determination. These two Martial God Demon Cores were the capital for the accomplishment of his Human Origin Body Technique Great Success.

Another drop of Essence Blood appeared; this was Divine Blood Essence. The fluctuations it emitted were even more magnificent than those of the two Martial God Demon Cores. This blood essence, refined by a Divine being, if turned into a medication and consumed by ordinary people, could extend their lifespans and add a hundred or two hundred years of longevity.

Even Heavenly Gods could become stronger by consuming it, which gives an indication of the strength contained within.

This was Ye Chen’s powerful assurance, something he would not use unless absolutely necessary.

Elder Yan appeared, sitting cross-legged in the void, and said, "Break through now, I will protect the Dao for you."

"Alright!"

Boom—

Ye Chen clenched the two Martial God Demon Cores tightly in his hands and then suddenly exerted force. A colossal strength of a hundred thousand jin burst forth, and even the hardy Martial God Demon Cores were directly crushed, releasing an extreme terror of energy that caused the heavens and earth to tremble, capable of leveling an area of several tens of miles around with ease.

This was not ordinary energy, nor was it nature’s spiritual energy or Innate Energy, but rather Martial God Energy, a tier above Innate Energy. It was the combination of the Dao that the Martial God had comprehended and Divine Power, truly extraordinary.

The Martial God Energy contained within each Martial God Demon Core was incredibly terrifying, sufficient to flatten an area of tens of miles. Now that two Martial God Demon Cores were crushed, it was even more dreadful.

However, Elder Yan made a move, using his formidable power to forcefully calm the agitated energy into gentleness. Only such a powerhouse could do this; otherwise, even a Heavenly God might struggle with the task.

This was why Ye Chen dared to crush them. Otherwise, if it were just him alone, he could only slowly absorb the energy from the Martial God Demon Cores.

A massive amount of silver and blue dual-colored energy burst from the shattered Martial God Demon Cores, flowing out continuously. Under Elder Yan’s control, it transformed into an Energy Pool spreading ten zhang around, with Lightning and Water Attribute Dao powers emerging.

This was part of the Dao once mastered by the Octagonal Green Bull and the Sea Demon, now merged with Divine Power, becoming Ye Chen’s own Martial God Energy.

Ye Chen sat within the ten zhang Energy Pool, officially starting his breakthrough to the Great Human Yuan Body, ready to condense the Immortal Human Origin Golden Body.

He was submerged in the silver and blue energy of the Martial God. The Human Origin Body Technique instantly operated to its utmost limit, and he absorbed the immense dual-colored energy, seeking to achieve the Human Origin Golden Body in one fell swoop.

Boom—

Transformed into a bottomless pit, the 160,000 tiny pores on his body expanded, like 160,000 black holes, greedily absorbing the vast and pure energy.

Crackle and pop—

Every bone and muscle in his body rapidly creaked and crossed, his flesh trembled, his blood qi roared and boiled, continuously transforming, becoming increasingly powerful and terrifying.

This transformation, from the inside out, was visibly clear to the naked eye; every inch of flesh seemed like a starved man, hungry for untold years, constantly devouring large amounts of dual-colored energy.

Ye Chen’s mind was immersed in it, his thoughts reaching their zenith, wanting to comprehend each change and the profound mysteries within, attempting to understand them.

It must be said, the Human Origin Body Technique is indeed a supreme Body Refining Method, unfathomably mystical, containing various profound mysteries related to the physical body. It was unknown which predecessor had created it, but they were undoubtedly a brilliant figure who dazzled through the ages, with mysteries that no one could fathom.

Even Ye Chen, a descendant of the Combat Saint lineage, had to marvel at it. Such a Body Refining Method, although only limited to previous realms, was truly unparalleled in the world, able to solidify the foundation of the physical body immensely, thus granting the possibility of even greater strength.

The process of transformation could not be too fast, because this was intentional on Ye Chen’s part. He wanted to thoroughly understand the changes in achieving the Human Origin Golden Body, master these transformations, and reach a deeper level of understanding.

Time quietly flowed by—

A day... two days... half a month... a month...

Unaware of the passing of time during cultivation, Ye Chen was completely absorbed in the transformation of his physical body, his mind serene, oblivious to the passage of time in the outside world.

Almost every moment, he was growing stronger.

Rumbling—

As the cultivation progressed towards the later stages, the extent of the physical body’s transformation grew greater, the bones and muscles crossed and sounded like thunder; every inch of flesh continued to grow stronger, with blood qi steaming, the body like a blazing furnace.

Clearly visible within the limbs and meridians, a tremendous amount of power surged wildly, like a flood tide crashing, repeatedly washing the meridians, continuously strengthening them.

During this process, his blood qi underwent a noticeable change, gradually revealing a hint of golden color, which, as time passed, grew more and more...

Ye Chen’s physical body was undergoing inconceivable changes, a deep transformation, evolving towards even stronger realms unceasingly, without pause.

When he stopped transforming, it would be the moment of breaking out of the cocoon and transforming into a butterfly, a complete rebirth. At that time, he would possess unparalleled combat strength, overpowering all...

In the blink of an eye, two months passed. The initial energy pool with a radius of ten zhang was now reduced to less than three zhang, yet Ye Chen was still lost in cultivation, never once awakening.

His consciousness was immersed in the deepest part of cultivation; without a true breakthrough or a sufficiently strong external stimulus, he could not be awakened.

At this moment, his heart was filled with many insights from cultivation, which needed to be digested.

Moreover, Elder Yan knew that this time Ye Chen’s breakthrough was not simply achieving the Human Origin Golden Body; there must be other aspects of breakthroughs, otherwise, it would not be so slow.

Though it was expected, he couldn’t help but frown. Ye Chen was too impatient, eager to break through so quickly—did he not know that impatience was the thing cultivators avoided most?

But thinking of Ye Chen being the reincarnation of a once unparalleled being, perhaps all of this was within the calculations.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away at Xiafeng Academy, on this day, a powerful Martial God expert arrived from afar, descending upon the Cultivation Academy within the Western Regions Kingdom.

His arrival alerted several Martial God Elders of Xiafeng Academy who personally came to receive him because the visitor was a Martial God expert from the Tiandu Academy of the mainland Cultivation Holy Land.

And the purpose of this visit was for the recruitment trial!
