Gu Chen called up his panel, and at this moment, there were still one hundred and seventy-six ability points remaining on his panel.
Feeling the boiling blood and vital energy within his body, Gu Chen took a deep breath and spent eighty-eight ability points to raise his Pure Yang True Body, an ancient body refining martial art, to the realm of perfection!
Boom!
Instantly, raging flames ignited on Gu Chen's body, and all his clothes turned to ashes in the blink of an eye, even burning into nothingness.
At this moment, Gu Chen seemed to have transformed into a huge furnace, the temperature of the air around him reaching an extreme. All over his body, inside and out, endless flames were burning; it was visible that from every pore on Gu Chen's body, bursts of firelight were ejected.
Gu Chen's seated body trembled slightly, fists clenched tightly. Every inch of his flesh, bones, and even his internal organs were wrapped in a torrent of pale golden flames.
Every hair on his body also turned into nothingness in an instant.
Even flames wrapped Gu Chen completely, leaving only the silhouette of a seated figure visible.
Splat!
Suddenly, at this moment, Gu Chen's shoulder exploded, and from there, a gush of blood sprayed out, striking a nearby cliffside and causing plumes of white smoke to rise.
The blood inside Gu Chen was so scorching that one could imagine the intense agony he was experiencing.
Pop, pop, pop!
Immediately following, Gu Chen's body burst open in one place after another, with streams of fresh blood ejecting forth.
He was exchanging blood!
Only, Gu Chen's method of blood exchange was somewhat abnormal, or rather, it was exceedingly intense.
In just a short time, his entire body cracked, and blood poured unstoppably, but quickly, under the blazing light on Gu Chen's body, the flowing blood immediately vaporized.
"Ah..."
Such intense pain was almost unbearable even for Gu Chen, who let out a low roar as he endured with all his might. His body was dried and charred as if it was a piece of charred wood.
His body was covered with wounds, and Gu Chen seemed as if he was about to be torn apart; yet even so, the blazing light continued to burn on his body without showing any sign of weakening.
Gu Chen bit down hard on his teeth and stubbornly fought on. As time passed, with the fiery light burning intensely, his flesh, bones, and even his internal organs all turned a charred black.
And Gu Chen's vitality also became weak to an extreme.
Finally, after an indeterminate amount of time, his withered body, like old wood in spring, began to shine with specks of light.
This light originated from the deepest parts of Gu Chen's body. As his old blood drained away, his bone marrow began to emit bursts of light, its flow speed increasing, and as the bone marrow pulsed steadily, particles of impurities were expelled, and new blood was born within Gu Chen to replace the old.
With the nourishment of fresh blood, Gu Chen's withered body also began to gradually plump up and strengthen.
However, the good times did not last long. Before much time passed, his newly healed body tore open again under the terrifying flames, and fresh blood spilled out, flowing continuously from his body.
Of course, this was mainly because Gu Chen's cultivation and physical body had both reached their limits, having long surpassed the Returning to True Stage by an unknown amount.
Within Gu Chen at the moment throbbed an exuberant life force. He felt that with a single step, he could crack the ground, and with one punch, as if he could pierce the sky.
If he were to release this overwhelming life force without reservation, the mountain cave before him would be directly shattered to pieces.
The exuberant blood energy and the vast life force propelled Gu Chen's physical body to an incomprehensible level of terror.
Today, after undergoing three blood cleansings, and adding the one after achieving the indestructibility of the Vajra, that was four times!
Furthermore, the blood cleansing in the Transformation Realm does not only pertain to the physical body, but also to cultivation. After three blood cleansings, although the quantity of Great Sun Divine Gang inside Gu Chen had not increased, its quality had increased several folds compared to before.
The Great Sun Divine Gang, now turned from golden red to pale gold, resembled strands of essence of solar fire, flowing through Gu Chen's meridians as wide as rivers.
After reaching the level of Grandmaster, with the Earthly Martial Skills of the Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic, Gu Chen could now truly manifest some of the divine mysteries of this technique.
"It's like heaven and earth..." Gu Chen murmured softly.
Having personally experienced blood cleansing, Gu Chen now realized the tremendous gap between Grandmasters and those who aren't.
At the same time, Gu Chen couldn't help but yearn for the rumored wonders that Martial Grandmasters of the Innate Realm possessed.
With that thought, his gaze shifted, and he called up his panel.
Name: Gu Chen
Martial Techniques: Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill (Complete, can deduce), Pure Yang True Body (Complete, can deduce), Eight Desolate Azure Dragon Strength (Great Success), True Yang Sword Finger (Minor Success), Controlling Wind Step Shadows (Minor Success), Star Tapping Sword Jue (Beginner)
Inner Power: Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic
Cultivation Age: 630 years
Stage: Early Transformation Realm
Skill Points: 88
Looking at the remaining eighty-eight points of skill value in the panel, Gu Chen gave it only slight consideration before enhancing the Superior Martial Skill, Eight Desolate Azure Dragon Strength.
Boom!
A loud dragon chant echoed, reaching the heavens and piercing the earth. Even though Gu Chen was trying his best to suppress it, at that moment, behind him faintly appeared eight incredibly intimidating azure dragon shadows, fleeting yet visible. The terrifying aura caused the entire cave to tremble, nearly on the verge of collapse.
A torrent of martial knowledge flooded his mind; in just an instant, it was as if Gu Chen had practiced this martial art for decades, mastering all its critical secrets.
As for the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill and the Pure Yang True Body, upon reaching completion, they could indeed be deduced as Gu Chen had speculated, and by then, unless unexpected, Gu Chen would also obtain his first Earth Grade Martial Skill.
"I wonder what the current situation in Yan State is..."
Gu Chen furrowed his brows, calculating the time from when he went to the frontier at Yongxue City until now, roughly over a month had passed.
The court's reinforcements might have already arrived.
With this thought, Gu Chen quickly exited the cave, and upon reaching the outside world, he suddenly felt a chill on his skin.
Gu Chen looked down to see his bare body, and he then remembered that after his retreat, he had been engulfed in flames, naturally reducing his clothes to ashes on the ground.
Fortunately, he had prepared accordingly before the retreat, setting aside clothes in advance. Gu Chen, in his naked state, went to the designated place, took out the clothes, and put them on.
Suddenly, Gu Chen's brow furrowed and his gaze sharply turned to the distance. He sensed several Grandmaster auras rushing towards his location.
Because of his previous activity, he had been discovered!
"Devil Sect, or the barbarians?" Gu Chen pondered.
