Chapter 303: Ascending to Martial Saint, the Reversing Bone of the Fleshly Mortal, the Daughter is the Professional Reversing Bone

Martial Saint?!

Martial Saint!!!

At this moment, the entire Radiant City seemed to be enveloped by an overwhelmingly terrifying pressure, as if the heavens and earth were enraged, descending tribulation to obliterate the heavens and the earth!

It was as if a deity had emerged from behind the leaden clouds, revealing an enraged visage, spewing thunder to extinguish and slash down the fleshly mortal who defied the heavens!

Atop Radiant Peak!

The great wind arose!

Countless accumulations of snow melted, scalding rain plummeted from the sky.

Pitter-patter—!

Torrential rain poured down, yet it could not wash away the omnipresent, terrifying pressure and aura!

The aura of a Martial Saint!

The ultimate, terrifying martial will!

Nan Li Huo trembled slightly all over, as everyone plunged into the rain, allowing the heavy rain to wash over their bodies, yet they paid no heed, staring wide-eyed at the figure gradually rising into the air from within the city!

They couldn't see clearly!

Completely unclear!

Who was that?!

Even if the martial expert had no concealment, there was a distorting force in the unseen, refracting the light and distorting their vision!

They couldn't see clearly the terrifying figure, entwined by a mountain-like, overwhelming, and terrifying aura, qi, and pressure!

The figure was extremely robust, as sturdy as a mountain, every sinew and bone reaching the pinnacle of strength, as if giant pythons were coiling around the body, exhaling immense power!

Just a glance, and it felt like a surge of oppressive force was bursting forth.

That blazing, resplendent figure seemed to make one's martial will cry out in unbearable agony, on the verge of complete collapse!

Nan Li Huo was not a martial practitioner but a divinity cultivator at the Yuan Phase realm.

Yet, even without being a martial practitioner, facing a being who had reached the pinnacle of human physicality, he still trembled in awe.

It was a human instinct, a respect for the powerful!

The others beside Nan Li Huo were similarly terrified, the disciples of the sect branch hair standing on end, each gasping for breath, almost devoid of the strength to move!

The rank…

Was too high!

"A Martial Saint!"

"And not just any Martial Saint, but… an extremely terrifying one!"

Nan Li Huo's eyes shone brightly, filled with shock.

However, a dazzling flame of light flickered in his eyes!

"Martial Saint… Martial Saint… This might… just might be my chance!"

Because of his injuries, breaking through to the divine essence realm had become extremely difficult. But, if he could use the inspiration from this Martial Saint's breakthrough to stimulate the divinity within, perhaps he could still have a chance to re-attain the divine essence realm!

Even if…

Breaking through to the divine essence realm would completely cut off his path!

Even, due to his injuries, it would be like burning his own life…

But he, Nan Li Huo, had something he must do!

Nan Li Huo sat cross-legged on the large, rain-soaked plaza, where the water flowed like a tide.

Five hearts toward the sky, his primordial spirit out of the body!

Suspended above his head, he sensed the terrifying, abundant martial will of the heavens and the earth!

Zhang Qingzheng, Zhu Hong Dou, and others saw Nan Li Huo's posture and couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Yang Yuan, feeling a mix of emotions, glanced at his teacher and, along with the other elders, retreated from the plaza.

Leaving the entire plaza of Radiant Peak to Nan Li Huo.

...

...

"A peerless grandmaster, reaching the pinnacle, breaking through to Martial Saint?!"

"Within Radiant City, there's actually such a powerful expert hidden? No, an expert among experts!"

Inside the City Lord's residence.

Due to the death of the previous City Lord, Su Huaili, the Grand Jing Dynasty had appointed a new City Lord.

The location of Radiant City was too critical, mainly because the Eight-Armed Lotus Wrathful Third Prince Odd Shrine was situated along the Nine Dragons River, too close to Radiant City.

Therefore, the Grand Jing Dynasty specifically dispatched a City Lord from the Divine Capital.

T

Even Nan Li Huo had to temporarily avoid his sharp edge.

Fortunately, this City Lord had no ties to the Feudal Prince Ji Moli, not sent by him, so Nan Li Huo and he had no significant conflicts, able to coexist peacefully.

Radiant City did not completely calm down after the Li Che family's departure.

Instead, the undercurrents grew stronger, with more and more forces sending powerful experts, even hiding within Radiant City.

The Corpse Deity Cult, with their unyielding intentions, slowly tested the waters, finding that the various fiends of the Netherworld had disappeared, and thus began to re-establish their influence.

They had not given up on the Third Prince Odd Shrine.

On the other side, the Hunter Sect also re-established a branch, but this time more covertly and cautiously.

But now, these experts from various forces were all greatly shocked.

Within Radiant City, there was actually a powerful expert breaking through to Martial Saint?!

Many forces were filled with fear, and the Corpse Deity Cult immediately notified all their Corpse Deity Envoys to withdraw from Radiant City.

In the Heaven-Qi Supervision Bureau.

The Supervisor Hu Ying Yue, whose Chinese two-stringed fiddle had snapped, took a deep breath.

His eyes shone brightly, staring at the scene, unable to resist laughing loudly: "A Martial Saint breaking through, the Three Flowers resplendent!"

"Such an extremely resplendent blood qi, resplendent Three Flowers, terrifying physique…"

"Truly… truly fortunate!"

"To witness such a powerful expert break through, to see such a martial practitioner transcend tribulation! Truly one of the great fortunes of life, a celebration is in order!"

Hu Ying Yue felt his inspiration surge.

He retrieved another Chinese two-stringed fiddle, leaped onto the pinnacle of the eight-cornered, multi-eaved treasure tower, and began to play.

The torrential rain drowned out the sound of his fiddle almost instantly.

Crack, crack—

Thunder rumbled, but Hu Ying Yue remained immersed in his artistic creation.

Dreamlike, entranced, intoxicated!

...

...

The entire Radiant City trembled.

However, none of this was within Li Che's perception or concern.

Above the heavens, the tribulation lightning unique to a Martial Saint's breakthrough was brewing, unleashing an extremely terrifying force, capable of obliterating the heavens and the earth.

It seemed as if this terrifying tribulation had been stimulated by his return to the martial path, his martial will ascending step by step!

Or perhaps, it was because the heavens sensed Li Che's surpassing of the mundane, reaching the signs of a fleshly mortal, and sought to break through the ultimate, treading into the extraordinary, thus descending this terrifying tribulation!

Facing such an extraordinary and terrifying tribulation.

Li Che, however, was completely devoid of any fear or retreat!

This Wusheng Tribulation Lightning was far, far more powerful than the tribulation lightning he faced when he became a Divine Falcon Demi-Saint...

It seemed to be a force from an entirely different dimension!

Boom!

Boom!

Rumble—Bang!

It was even more terrifying than the most fearsome thunderstorm in the height of summer!

The web-like lightning that exploded spread across the sky, awe-inspiring, as if all evil spirits were about to be scattered by this righteous tribulation lightning!

Li Che closed his eyes, his black hair wildly dancing and lashing out, like black lightning!

His massive, muscular body swelled circle after circle, slowly ascending into the clouds, appearing in mid-air.

Like a tiny ant facing the sky's tribulation lightning!

This scene was shockingly intense!

At this moment, Li Che tightly closed his eyes, with an intangible field twisting around him!

His mind was immersed in a unique space.

Facing the Human Body Great Essence Core!

The Physical Essence Core!

Huge like a star!

And at this moment, on the surface of this massive, heart-like, seemingly living Human Body Great Essence Core, there were countless fist marks!

Like deep craters from countless meteor strikes, similar to the uneven surface of the moon from Li Che's past life's memory!

No one knew how many punches Li Che had thrown.

Perhaps it was one punch.

Or perhaps it was thousands upon thousands of punches!

On the surface of the great core.

There was a crack, like a ravine formed by the collision and compression of the earth!

It was bottomless and pitch black!

The immense essence energy gushed out from the crack in the core.

Instantly surging and washing over Li Che at this moment!

Boom—!!!

Li Che suddenly opened his eyes. The enlightenment feedback from the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit had not yet been exhausted, and Li Che was in a state of extreme limits, akin to a god of martial arts.

At this moment, Li Che, whether in martial cultivation or martial combat, had entered a state beyond the ordinary.

A slight movement in Li Che's heart.

He had never experienced combat under the enlightenment feedback of the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit.

Perhaps it would be very powerful!

In this state, Li Che felt that martial arts had become simple and easy, as if... the great way was simple.

However, Li Che always felt that using this state for combat was somewhat wasteful.

But after this thought arose, he could try it later, perhaps using 5% of the enlightenment feedback for combat.

Since the effect of enlightenment feedback was the same, the only difference was the amount of enlightenment feedback, which determined the duration of the state.

With this thought, Li Che felt he had inadvertently developed another trump card.

Boom!

Opening his eyes, his mind returned!

The first crack in the Human Body Great Essence Core represented the opening of the Human Core!

It was far easier than he had imagined!

Because Li Che's foundation was so solid, he thought it would take a great deal of effort and be very difficult to tear open the Human Body Great Essence Core.

But unexpectedly, even before the enlightenment feedback was exhausted...

Rumble!

The lightning was rampant, converging into a deep blue Thunder Dragon. The Thunder Dragon emerged from the sky, with its dragon whiskers, dragon scales, and dragon eyes vividly alive, like a true god of thunder looking down upon the mortals who dared to challenge the might of heaven and earth!

Li Che gazed at the Thunder Dragon, the Dao Fruit in his chest, not just the Dragon Elephant Vajra, but even the Thundermagnet Body Dao Fruit, was jumping wildly.

With the Thundermagnet Body, Li Che naturally knew how to avoid lightning.

Mastery of magnetic field power made attracting and evading lightning his strengths.

However, facing this Thunder Dragon, which was a hundred times more terrifying than the last demi-saint tribulation lightning, Li Che had no intention of avoiding the lightning at all!

Avoiding lightning...

was the choice of the weak!

Li Che wanted to become stronger, to reach the pinnacle, to be the greatest support and reliance for his daughter, wife, and his little family!

He could not be afraid, could not hide!

As the head of the family, as a man, he had to give his all, to fight, to become stronger!

Li Che floated in mid-air, his entire body covered and enveloped by the essence energy from the crack in the Human Body Great Essence Core!

The terrifying essence energy spreading through the heavens and earth almost made the entire Radiant City scorching hot!

Such essence energy was truly shocking and bizarre!

All the cultivators in Radiant City felt that the one floating above the city, facing the vast heavenly thunder, was not a person, but a mythical beast from ancient legends, emerging from the depths of the Enigmatic Tower!

The horrifying essence energy, like the breaching of the Nine Dragons River breaking its dam, surged and rolled out, the intense heat expanding in the air, evaporating all the raindrops within a thousand feet.

Warped the air, cleared the sky!

Boom—!!!

In the extremely dazzling light, though it was daytime, the moment the thunderlight flashed and fell, the world seemed to turn into night!

Everyone watched the figure of the supreme martial artist floating in mid-air, as if they were all blinded by the lightning!

Unable to see anything in the world!

After a long while...

they slowly recovered, light reoccupying their eyes, vision returning.

They looked up.

And saw a scene they would never forget!

In mid-air.

The martial artist spread his five fingers, blocking the descending Thunder Dragon!

Compared to the Thunder Dragon, it was like an ant blocking a hundred-foot python!

Shocking and bizarre!

Is this a martial artist?!

Is this even... a human?!

Even a deity would not be more so!

In the scene everyone was watching, the supreme martial artist who was undergoing tribulation, one hand spread to block the Thunder Dragon, the other hand clenched into a fist, behind him, five qi vortexes, rotating at high speed, suddenly unleashed terrifying power!

The air seemed to collapse at the moment he clenched his fist, exploding into void!

Five Sacred Seeds!

Exploding in rotation!

Turbocharged!!!

A punch was thrown, slamming fiercely into the Thunder Dragon!

A tremendous boom echoed in everyone's ears!

As if the Thunder Dragon was letting out a pained and desperate roar!

Ripples spread in rings, expanding outward, creating hurricane-like howls in mid-air, howling continuously!

Mountain-moving, earth-shaking!

Every part of the Thunder Dragon began to explode, like cysts bursting, creating one flash after another of lightning!

Sizzle—Sizzle—Sizzle—

Countless exploding lightning arcs continuously zapped over the body of the supreme martial artist.

Amidst everyone's astonishment, the martial artist knelt in mid-air, bathing in countless thunderbolts, allowing the thunder to wash over his physical body. It was as if he was absorbing the terrifying essence of thunder.

All the cultivators in Radiant City, whether mortals, martial artists, or divine cultivators, looked up in awe.

In the City Lord's Mansion, the newly appointed City Lord trembled.

He was from the Divine Capital and was a member of the National Teacher's group. In the Grand Jing Dynasty, the most powerful martial artists and cultivators gathered in the Divine Capital, and he had witnessed Martial Saints and their Human Core breakthroughs.

But...

He had never seen such a spectacular scene!

Is this still a human?!

A strong intuition suddenly arose in the City Lord's heart.

If this person doesn't die...

The Grand Jing Dynasty's Ten Gates of Heaven will have a place for this person. So...

Who is this person?!

...

...

Boom!

"Martial Saint!"

"Success!"

Li Che hovered in mid-air, bathing in the thunder pool formed by the true dragon he had shattered.

A thought emerged in his heart.

Upon opening the Human Core, the Martial Saint's essence surged, merging with the Three Flowers' Primordial Energy, transforming into an even more powerful Primordial Energy, fierce and unparalleled, surpassing the Primordial Energy in both quality and quantity.

Primordial Energy was still a type of energy.

But the Martial Saint's Primordial Energy had already become a substantial force.

It had substance and was not a mere illusion.

Primordial Energy could transform into various substantial weapons, even more durable than ordinary metal. Of course, it was still inferior to Divine Armaments.

But this was the Martial Saint's transformation, and the Primordial Energy was undoubtedly stronger than the Primordial Energy.

Opening the Human Core was like opening a door, pushing open the tightly closed gates of heaven and earth.

The spirit seemed to detach from the transforming physical body, connecting to the vast heavens above and the netherworld below.

It was a more profound feeling of unity with heaven and earth.

It was the unique heaven-human unity of the Martial Saint.

Uniting with heaven, uniting with earth, and communicating with heaven and earth.

Li Che felt his five senses detach from his body, merging with heaven and earth, as if heaven and earth were his, and he was heaven and earth.

The Three Flowers' essence, energy, and spirit merged with heaven, earth, and humanity.

Seeking the heights and depths, connecting with the heavens and the netherworld.

Crackling sounds filled the air.

In an instant, his muscles and bones underwent a startling transformation. His physical body, which had reached its limit, and his bones, which had reached their peak, broke through their constraints at this moment.

Even without detonating the five Divine Seeds, he could directly break free from the physical body's shackles.

"So this is..."

"This is the Martial Saint!"

"Breaking free from the constraints of the physical body, truly transcending the mortal realm!"

"From now on, no longer a mortal!"

...

...

Boom!

The waters of the Nine Dragons River surged, as if a ten-zhang-high wave crashed and churned in the sky.

Then, it transformed into a dazzling line of river tide, fiercely slamming into the Odd Shrine in the center of the river.

With a bang, a magnificent spray of water exploded.

As the wave retreated, a new wave fiercely crashed forward.

Suddenly.

After one wave receded.

On the originally empty white jade staircase in front of the Eight-Armed Lotus Wrathful Third Prince's Odd Shrine.

A figure appeared, enveloped in black flames, standing quietly.

With his arms crossed, his gaze was cold and indifferent.

The black flames burned, forming a lotus around him.

He tilted his head slightly.

"The Three-Bladed Double-Edged Saber of Erlang Zhenjun?"

"The Face of Heaven of the Smelly Monkey?"

"And the Yin Soul Sword of the Divine Monkey?"

"Tsk..."

"This is getting interesting."

"A rebellious spirit."

"I wonder..."

"Can he rebel against heaven and earth?"

The Third Prince, with his arms crossed, suddenly had wind and fire wheels beneath his feet, and divine silk wrapped around him like a dancing divine dragon.

"Even if he can't rebel, it doesn't matter..."

"Your daughter received the Divine Monkey's inheritance."

"She's a professional."

Amidst laughter.

The Nine Dragons River seemed enraged, and a wave rose instantly, reaching hundreds of zhang high, and slammed into the Odd Shrine.

The laughter disappeared.

The Third Prince also vanished.

...

...

Crack!

Lightning tore through the sky, ripping apart the leaden clouds laden with heavy snow.

In Heavenly Origin Dao City, the snow that had fallen for several days finally stopped, covering the entire city in a thick blanket of snow like heavy robes.

For the various powers in Heavenly Origin Dao City, these four days had been filled with undercurrents.

Due to the impending opening of the Two-Hearted Sage's Strange Shrine, many new faces had appeared in Heavenly Origin Dao City, and they were all formidable figures.

Divine Sects from Guangling Dao, Longyuan Dao, Qingyun Dao, Xiling Dao, and others had secretly sent powerful cultivators to Heavenly Origin Dao City.

The cultivators in Heavenly Origin Dao City were well aware that these rarely seen powerful figures from various regions had mostly come for the Divine Armament named by the Grand Supervisor in the Two-Hearted Sage's Strange Shrine.

(End of Chapter)The eastern sky glowed, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the mortal realm.

Shendiao Ling seemed to come alive.

Numerous figures exuded powerful auras, with martial wills connecting the heavens and earth, as Martial Dao Saints traversed the snowy lands, leaving no traces in their wake.

There were also Divine Embryo cultivators, their divine nature surging like tides, enveloping their bodies as they soared through the air.

However, no one dared to trespass upon the strange shrine located at Shendiao Ling.

Before the shrine, a white-robed figure with silver hair cascading like a waterfall sat, pointing at a little girl with a small belly practicing her sword.

The sharp sword light danced dazzlingly.

Xi Xi showed no fear, even feeling excited, despite the many Martial Saints and Divine Embryos watching her practice. Xi Xi's heart was fearless, and she wanted to laugh.

One day, she would make them all kneel before her with a single swing of her sword!

Xi Xi's fighting spirit soared, and her sword dance grew faster!

Shendiao Ling was quiet.

No one dared to move, as Lu Tai Bai's reputation was too great. He was the Tai Bai Slaughter Star, listed in both the Great Deity Spectrum and the Heaven Gate Pass, a true top-tier expert of the Grand Jing Dynasty.

Without the presence of their backers, how dare they cause trouble?

"Before the appointed time, we wait. Once the time arrives, we'll open the Ghost Tower," Lu Tai Bai said, pointing at Xi Xi while speaking.

"We will follow the instructions of the Tai Bai Sect Master," the crowd responded, fists clenched in a respectful manner, showing no signs of being ignored.

If they showed anger, they would become the targets of Lu Tai Bai's warning, and that would be truly unjust.

So, it was best to maintain a smile.

...

...

Heavenly Origin Dao City.

Su Family Mansion.

One by one, luxurious horse carriages gathered in front of the mansion as the sky brightened with the morning light.

Many of the Su family's infants, still in their swaddling clothes, were held by their nannies and tightly wrapped before being placed in the carriages.

Only those women who had married into the Su family were left behind in the small courtyards of the mansion, with no one to oversee them.

After leaving some of the Su family's peripheral members behind, Su Leibao immediately ordered the departure from the city!

Dragon Horse-drawn carriages carried the Su family members, while Su Leibao rode alone in a sedan chair. As soon as they left the city, the Su family's caravan split into three groups, each heading towards different destinations.

Suddenly, Su Leibao ordered the carriage driver to stop.

He stepped out of the carriage and saw the amiable Yue Huanglong, the Dao Lord, standing there with his hands behind his back.

"Your humble servant greets the Dao Lord," Su Leibao coughed twice and saluted.

Yue Huanglong's face wore a hearty smile as he watched the Su family, who had decided to relocate their entire clan. He couldn't help but feel admiration for Su Leibao's decisiveness.

"Be careful on your journey," Yue Huanglong said with a smile.

"I've arranged for a team of Divine Guard Army to escort you out of Heavenly Origin Dao City. Once you reach the Divine Capital, please convey my greetings to the Third Prince," Yue Huanglong added.

Hearing this, Su Leibao's face lit up with joy.

"Thank you for your protection, Dao Lord!"

Yue Huanglong nodded, and in the distance, a team of Divine Guard Army clad in golden armor was already waiting quietly.

Leading them was the handsome and charismatic Golden Armor Divine Guard Marshal, Yan Jing!

Su Leibao's eyes narrowed.

Yan Jing?! Yue Huanglong... was actually sending Yan Jing to escort the Su family's departure?

Su Leibao's heart sank a little.

Could it be that they planned to eliminate the Su family on the way?

The mountains were high, the roads were long, and the wilderness was secluded...

If they were truly killed, there would be no one to speak for them.

...

...

Radiant City.

Heavy rain had been pouring for four days.

At the moment when the last thunderbolt intertwined with the suspended figure above the city, the entire Radiant City, shrouded in darkness, seemed to brighten suddenly.

It was as if a rising sun had soared into the sky, high above the clouds!

The morning glow broke through!

The Golden Crow rose in the east!

All because of the wildly dancing black hair and the body that seemed to vibrate with every muscle and bone, like a thunderous collapse.

The eyes opened.

End of Chapter.
