Chapter 447: Ripping the Void with Bare Hands!
Chapter 447: Ripping the Void with Bare Hands!
At this moment, Chen Mu felt that the void around his body had become extremely fragile. It was as if a slight movement from him could cause the void to shatter, and with full force, he could directly tear open a rift in the void!
He stood up slowly, sensing the power his body had gained after entering the Blood Replacement Realm, and took a step forward. He stepped out of the rock cave and a faint light flashed in his eyes. With his right hand in a knife-like stance, he slashed forward fiercely.
Crack!!!
The void under his palm strike shattered like fragile ice, inch by inch. The concentrated force at the edge of his palm even pierced through the white crack in the void, tearing open a pitch-black rift!
As soon as this rift appeared, the nearby seawater surged and roiled, like a ferocious beast opening its massive jaws, frantically devouring the nearby currents, causing the ocean floor to be shrouded in dark, turbulent waves in an instant.
Ripping the Void with Bare Hands!
However, just as the void rift appeared, it quickly healed, closing in the blink of an eye.
Amidst the still-turbulent waters, Chen Mu stood like a solid reef, unmoving. He stared at the area where the void rift had appeared and healed, then looked down at his palm.
There, he saw a terrifying crack on the edge of his palm, deep enough to expose the bone. It was a wound caused by the void rift.
"Even the flesh of the Blood Replacement Realm is still unable to completely resist the void rift..."
Chen Mu muttered to himself thoughtfully.
Then, he gave his right hand a slight shake, and the deep wound on the edge of his palm instantly healed and disappeared.
Although the void rift could still cause some harm to him, a Blood Replacement Realm body, the damage and threat were undoubtedly much reduced compared to the past.
If this had happened before, trying to tear open such a void rift with his bare hands would likely have resulted in his entire right hand being devoured! But now, ripping the void rift with his bare hands was like directly challenging the power of the void. Yet, it only caused a slight rupture at the edge of his palm, which was hardly considered an injury for Chen Mu, who now possessed immense vitality and self-healing abilities. This meant that the strength of his flesh and blood was almost comparable to the void barrier of this world! What a terrifying physique!
If a Blood Replacement Realm expert were here to witness this scene, they would likely be shocked beyond belief.
It was known that ordinary Blood Replacement Realm experts often struggled to tear even the most basic white void cracks, and usually, only through intense battles with others could they initially fracture the void. Only the very top Blood Replacement Realm experts could fracture the void with their own power, and even then, they could only barely penetrate its shallowest layer!
Only the pitch-black void rifts were considered to truly pierce through the void.
And now, Chen Mu's physical strength was almost on par with the void barrier of the world, which meant that the vast majority of Blood Replacement Realm experts, even with their full strength, would at most leave some shallow wounds on Chen Mu's skin, and it would be difficult for them to even break through the muscle layer! With Chen Mu's current body possessing such robust vitality and self-healing abilities, these minor flesh wounds were almost negligible and held no significance for him.
From now on, the only ones who could truly injure him were the Celestial Masters!
Furthermore, the fact that Chen Mu could tear open a void rift with his bare hands was equally terrifying because the area he was in was at the bottom of the ocean, where the void was not weakened by the tides as it had been when the Seekwood Heavenly Realm opened.
The void at the ocean's depths was extremely solid!
Even Celestial Masters found it challenging to truly pierce through the void and create a rift. Two Celestial Masters fighting with all their might could penetrate the void, but it didn't mean that a single person could do so at will!
Celestial Masters also varied in strength, and being able to penetrate the void with one's power was almost a sign of being among the top Celestial Masters in the world. Even with the aid of a top-tier Spirit Armament that perfectly complemented their abilities, there were no more than a handful of such experts in the entire Great Xuanyan and the outer seas.
Yet, Chen Mu had reached this level with his bare hands!
It could be said that with the power contained in his current body, he was already capable of dominating the world, with few rivals under the heavens. And if he were to exert his full strength, unleashing his soul's power and harnessing the Heaven-Earth Domain...
"I wonder, where would I stand among the warriors of this era?"
Chen Mu looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the fathomless ocean depths, toward the boundless sky above, his thoughts serene.
For over a decade, he had trained day and night, never slacking in his efforts. From beginning to end, he had never shown any signs of laziness, and all his hardships and efforts had finally borne fruit.
No matter the present world, there were no opponents who could rival him. Undoubtedly, in today's world, there were few things that could threaten him. Even if the whole world were his enemy, he now had the confidence to face them all!
After reaching this step, Chen Mu was no longer in a hurry.
Upon crossing the threshold of Blood Transformation, there were no longer any barriers between the body and the universe. With Martial Blood as the foundation, all the powers of the body were connected, allowing him to control and manipulate the power of the universe with every move. This was the true embodiment of 'Body and Universe as One', where immense strength returned to the self. Powers like Primordial Essence Breath and the energy of the universe no longer needed to be refined at this stage.
Because all power would be harnessed by the physique, and all strength would be based on the power of the flesh.
However, Blood Transformation was a process.
After crossing the Life and Death Threshold and completing the initial Blood Transformation, the process of Cosmic Blood Infusion would cease. But at this stage, Blood Transformation was not yet complete. In the following period, the warrior still needed to actively absorb the power of the universe to temper their Martial Blood, making it even more refined, until they reached a point where no further progress was possible—the end of Blood Transformation.
This process was much faster than Bone Marrow Washing Realm cultivation because, while the Bone Marrow Washing process also tempered the entire Martial Body, by the time one reached Blood Transformation Realm, the tempering of the Martial Body was already complete, and only the Martial Blood needed to be refined.
Typically, it would take only a few years to fully master Blood Transformation Realm and reach its pinnacle.
As for Qin Mengjun, Chen Mu deduced that he had probably completed the entire Blood Transformation process, and his current strength was likely no less than that of Yin Heng and the Mystic Pavilion Master. He was no longer at the initial stage of Blood Transformation.
"I wonder how long it will take for me to complete Blood Transformation."
A thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind.
His journey to Blood Transformation could be described as lengthy. After all, most Bone Marrow Washing warriors who attempted to break through to Blood Transformation Realm would take at most a month, but he had spent eight or nine months, almost a year if you included the preparation time! This was partly due to Ji Yong Zhao's interference, but more so because his Martial Body foundation was too strong, requiring a longer period of Cosmic Blood Infusion to completely break through the barriers between the body and the universe and truly enter Blood Transformation Realm.
However, for Chen Mu, determining the progress of Blood Transformation was much easier than for ordinary people because he had a more intuitive way of judging.
With just a thought, the system panel appeared before Chen Mu's eyes.
[Physique: Blood Refinement (Minor)]
[Experience: 0 points]
Seeing the system panel's assessment of his current realm, a hint of surprise flashed across Chen Mu's eyes.
"Just Minor?"
Based on his understanding of the system panel, if a realm was marked as 'Minor', there should be subsequent stages of 'Major', 'Complete', and 'Limit Break'.
However, traditionally, there was no such division in Blood Transformation Realm. The vast majority of Blood Transformation experts, after entering this realm, would only need a few years to reach the pinnacle of Blood Transformation, a point where no further progress was possible.
Recalling the Divine Realm, which transcended Blood Transformation.
Chen Mu had a sudden realization.
Wasn't this a sign that Body Tempering Martial Art was not perfect?
Due to insufficient foundations, the Primordial Energy was not dense enough, and various resources were lacking. This led to all warriors in this world reaching the limits of their Martial Dao after advancing a little further in Blood Transformation Realm.
In reality, this was merely the limit of Body Tempering Martial Art, not the limit of 'cultivation'. High-level Blood Transformation warriors like the Dragonwood Island Master stood at the pinnacle of Blood Transformation, but this so-called limit might only be the 'Complete' stage as presented on the system panel, or perhaps they hadn't even reached that!
Furthermore, the description of Blood Transformation Realm on the system panel had changed, referring to it as 'Blood Refinement', indicating that this realm was not just about completing the process of Blood Transformation but required further tempering.
With the guidance of the system panel, combined with his knowledge of hidden secrets and the various insights he gained during Blood Transformation, Chen Mu finally confirmed one thing.
Beyond Blood Refinement,
was the Divine Realm!
In a 69-look-no-wrong version
Cultivating Blood Refinement to its limit and taking one more step forward, one could truly break free from the universe's restraints and shackles, transcending the mundane. The body cultivated at this stage might be called the 'Divine Body'.
"Divine Body?"
Chen Mu's gaze swept across the dimly lit ocean depths.
In the current world, all the top warriors, the most powerful Celestial Masters, pursued the realm beyond Blood Transformation, the path after the third intention. But only he had truly seen that path clearly.
Despite the development of Body Tempering Martial Arts, it was still insufficient to embark on the path to the Divine Realm. However, with the help of the System Panel, even without a clear path, Chen Mu could forcefully forge ahead and create such a path.
Swish!
After a brief pause, Chen Mu turned around and took a step, returning to the underwater cave.
The underwater cave was already submerged in seawater, but it didn't affect Chen Mu at all. The dragon blood pool, still as scorching as ever, continued to emit waves of heat like a burning inferno.
"Let's see how far I can push my current resources in Blood Refinement."
Chen Mu directed his gaze towards the dragon blood pool.
Now that the direction of Blood Transformation Realm, or the so-called 'Blood Refinement Realm,' was clear, he should be able to gain experience points through resources, just like before. Then, the System Panel would forcefully boost his progress.
Although Chen Mu was no longer afraid of any Celestial Master in the world, even the top Celestial Masters like Heavenly Blade Yang Yu and Profound Heaven Mansion Profound Heaven Daoist, might not be able to defeat him. Still, the gap wasn't significant enough for him to easily overpower Celestial Masters.
The closer he got to the peak of Martial Dao in the world, the closer he was to the position of 'Unparalleled Under the Heavens.' Chen Mu's mind became increasingly calm and composed, and he was in no rush to announce his existence to the world.
Fame, wealth, and power,
All of these things were like dirt to Chen Mu now.
The only thing he sought was the Divine Realm after Blood Refinement; everything else was insignificant.
Sizzle!
Chen Mu stared at the dragon blood pool for a moment and then took a step forward, entering the pool!
The blood of the crimson dragon itself was an excellent material for tempering the physique. Moreover, this was not just a drop or two, but an entire pool, a concentrated essence of an entire crimson dragon, including its heart's blood, which Chen Mu extracted and poured into the blood pool. Even for some Blood Transformation Realm experts, this pool would still be effective.
Gurgle, gurgle.
As soon as Chen Mu stepped into the dragon blood pool, his entire body immediately sank into it. The crimson dragon's blood around his body began to bubble, and a surge of fierce and scorching demonic power started to flow into his body.
For those who had not yet cultivated the Five Viscera and Organs Realm before entering the Marrow Washing Realm, falling into this dragon blood pool would instantly melt and dissolve their bodies. Even for a Bone Marrow Washing Master, stepping into such a pool of dragon blood for tempering would require extreme caution.
But Chen Mu was different. His gaze remained calm, and he didn't even try to resist. Instead, he opened up his body, allowing the nearly boiling dragon blood and the surging, scorching demonic power to flow into his body like a raging wildfire.
[Experience: 1 point]
[Experience: 2 points]
[Experience: 3 points]
...
At the same time, Chen Mu summoned the System Panel and immediately saw that the experience points were accumulating bit by bit.
"Very good."
Chen Mu's eyes glinted as he witnessed this.
For him now, the tempering of the crimson dragon's blood was almost unnecessary and of little use. Even if this entire pool of dragon blood was all the concentrated essence of the dragon's heart, it would only slightly enhance his Blood Refinement progress at most.
However, the System Panel, just like before, could still turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. It absorbed all these things that were of little use to Chen Mu and converted them into experience, accumulating them on the panel.
Blood Refinement from Minor to Major required a total consumption of 1,000 experience points! Although the accumulation of experience was slow, counting by single digits, Chen Mu estimated that this dragon blood pool could still bring hundreds of experience points, even more than he had anticipated.
Gurgle, gurgle!
As time passed, the crimson dragon's blood gradually decreased, and its scorching heat was continuously consumed by Chen Mu's body. The experience points on the System Panel also continued to accumulate.
The process of digesting the dragon blood took a long time. Chen Mu soaked in the blood pool for a considerable amount of time until the massive dragon blood pool finally dried up completely. The accumulated experience points on the System Panel reached a total of 417 points.
He was still more than halfway from entering Major Blood Refinement, but Chen Mu remained calm. With a wave of his hand, he took out the Heaven and Earth Flask and poured out the Seekwood Spirit Liquid he obtained from the Seekwood Heavenly Realm, reserving only a small portion. Then, he poured the rest into a newly created Seekwood Spirit Pool next to the dragon blood pool!
Splash!
Chen Mu took another step and entered the Seekwood Spirit Pool.
