Chapter 254 - Completion of the Vajra Invulnerability Divine Power_1
Yan State, DaHuang Mansion city.
At this moment, within a secret chamber of the city lord's residence, Gu Chen sat cross-legged.
Since the day the martial arts master from the Black Sky Sect fled, the remaining Black Sky Sect warriors and demons were like fish on a chopping board before Gu Chen and Xue Ling, completely powerless to fight back. Continue reading at empire
And it was because of that battle that Gu Chen realized there were multiple forces within DaHuang Mansion that wanted him dead.
Now, the power levels of his enemies had reached those of grandmasters, and after this battle, the group lurking in the shadows would certainly be aware of his strength.
A strong sense of crisis emerged in Gu Chen's heart.
Currently, the situation in Yan State was extremely tense, with barbarian tribes coveting them from the outside, while internally there were the Holy Shadows Sect and Black Sky Sect hidden, and moreover, there was an unknown enemy looking to kill him.
Without any accidents, Gu Chen had his speculations about the three grandmasters who appeared that day.
Only a top force could send a grandmaster to assassinate him, there was no doubt about it.
However, there are seven top forces in Yan State, and besides the royal family, each one had grievances with either Gu Chen or Jing Tian Department, so it wasn't easy to guess who it was.
But regardless, once Gu Chen's strength reached a certain level, he could certainly shatter all kinds of schemes and plots coming his way.
The next moment, with a thought from Gu Chen, a panel appeared before his eyes.
Name: Gu Chen
Martial Skills: Diamond Indestructible Divine Technique (Great Success), Eight Desolate Azure Dragon Strength (Great Success), True Sun Sword Finger (Beginner), Controlling Wind Step Shadows (Small Success), Star Tapping Sword Jue (Beginner), Pure Yang True Body (Great Success)
Inner Strength: Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic
Cultivation: Four hundred thirty years
Stage: Middle phase of Returning to True Stage
Point Value: 224
Fortunately, this battle with the demonic sect had yielded quite a few points for Gu Chen, enough for him to improve his strength once again in a short time.
With an increase in strength, Gu Chen would have more confidence in facing the enemies that were to come.
As for the over two hundred points on the panel, Gu Chen had long decided how to allocate them to maximize his strength improvement.
Now, with the help of Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic's power, Gu Chen's cultivation could match that of a grandmaster who had undergone the blood exchange process twice.
And regarding his physical body, because he had cultivated two Superior Body Training Martial Skills, Diamond Indestructible Divine Technique and Pure Yang True Body, his physical strength alone allowed him to stand fearless against martial arts grandmasters who had undergone the blood exchange process three times.
The physical body had always been Gu Chen's strong point, so this time, he planned to first improve his physical strength.
After some deliberation, Gu Chen decided to elevate the Diamond Indestructible Divine Technique, a Superior Body Training Martial Skill, directly to the realm of perfection!
As Gu Chen's thoughts moved, instantly, eighty-eight points vanished from the panel, and the Diamond Indestructible Divine Technique advanced from great success to perfection in a mere moment.
Boom!
When the Diamond Indestructible Divine Technique reached perfection, boundless Buddhist light displayed itself behind Gu Chen, and an enormous Buddha figure rose gradually, accompanied by the light.
As the Great Sun Divine Gang circulated within Gu Chen's body, a radiant sun emerged, enveloping him. He sat within it, his hair washed in golden light, looking as majestic as a sun god.
The scorching power immediately evaporated the moisture in the air, and not just that, the entire secret chamber showed signs of beginning to melt.
Seeing this, Gu Chen hastily retracted the Great Sun Divine Gang within him, and the sun that surrounded his figure also disappeared instantly.
After completing the enhancement of both his physical body and cultivation, only thirty-six points of merit remained on Gu Chen's panel.
If he had enough merit points, Gu Chen would have liked to raise the Eight Desolate Azure Dragon Strength to perfection as well. Regrettably, thirty-six points were far from sufficient.
Thereupon, Gu Chen's gaze shifted, and he allocated the last remaining thirty-six points of merit to the "True Yang Sword Finger," a Superior Martial Skill.
Hisss!
As the True Yang Sword Finger reached minor accomplishment, a burst of corresponding martial understanding surged into his mind. Gu Chen's fingertips now exuded a strand of scorching Sword Gang, which was extremely sharp and extraordinary.
"There are still too few merit points..." Gu Chen sighed to himself.
Yet even so, after this round of enhancements, Gu Chen's overall strength was already comparable to that of a martial arts grandmaster who had undergone blood replacement three times. His physical body was on par with one who had undergone blood replacement four times, and vaguely even surpassed that, with unrivaled defensive prowess.
The gap between blood replacement three times and four times was immense. For example, if Xue Ling were to face a martial arts grandmaster who had undergone blood replacement four times, a casual strike from the latter would be unbearable for him.
Because every round of regeneration and blood replacement exponentially increased one's physique and cultivation, resulting in ever-widening gaps further down the journey.
Especially once reaching blood replacement seven times, there would be a chasmic difference from before. Even dozens of grandmasters who had undergone blood replacement six times couldn't compare.
After the enhancements, Gu Chen did not immediately exit his closed-door training because he still needed to consolidate his power.
...
In Shen Zhou, within Qiongtian Mansion, the location of Sunset Sword Sect's mountain gate.
Today, the Sunset Sword Sect had gathered all its high-ranking members. All ten core elders in seclusion had emerged, and even the sect master of the Sunset Sword Sect did the same.
At the same time, Tian Dao Yang Ling, the sect master of Heavenly Saber Sect, also brought several important figures from the sect and arrived unannounced at Sunset Sword Sect.
When the two sect masters come together, it naturally indicated that important matters were being discussed.
However, even though the meeting was held in Sunset Sword Sect, the person leading was neither of the two sect masters, but someone else.
At this moment, inside the main hall of Sunset Sword Sect, with carved dragons and painted phoenixes on the towering stone columns, there were more than a dozen figures.
The one seated at the top was not the sect master of Sunset Sword Sect nor Tian Dao Yang Ling but an extremely aged elder. Despite his elderly appearance, his demeanor was incredibly sharp, like an unsheathed sword, and his gaze was so penetrating that no one dared meet his eyes.
This person was the previous sect master of Sunset Sword Sect and the only Innate Realm martial arts grandmaster of the sect!
His presence here was not to welcome Yang Ling, for Yang Ling did not deserve such an honor.
"He has arrived!"
At that moment, the Supreme Sect Master of Sunset Sword Sect's expression became stern as he looked towards the main hall's entrance. There, two figures appeared.
As soon as these two figures appeared, everyone in the hall immediately stood up, bowed, and presented their respects. This included the Supreme Sect Master of Sunset Sword Sect, the Innate Realm martial arts grandmaster.
"We welcome the Law King!"
