Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm-Chapter 434 - 433: Immortal upon Meeting the Divine
Chapter 434: Chapter 433: Immortal upon Meeting the Divine
As it turned out, Abbu’s concern was superfluous. Bu Jing hadn’t fallen into any predicament; he was still slowly and methodically breaking through.
It’s just that the time required to break through to the next realm was too long. In the past, Bu Jing didn’t spend so much time in seclusion, leading Abbu to misunderstand as if Bu Jing was encountering issues in his martial arts practice.
The moment Bu Jing broke through, the skies in the Ring Universe turned from day to night, pitch black.
Stars dotted here and there, relieved the darkness somewhat.
Five External World Martial Artists gazed upward, their faces etched with astonishment.
They discovered that these stars were illusive, like some kind of phenomenon, and the arrangements of the stars seemed very familiar.
“These stars correspond to the 720 acupuncture points of the human body!” exclaimed one of the External World Martial Artists.
He was too familiar with the positions of these stars. Becoming an External World Martial Artist meant aligning one’s body’s acupuncture points with the celestial stars. These 720 points were crucially important.
And yet, breaking through to the External World would never create such a spectacle.
“Bu Jing truly has far surpassed us on the path of martial arts. How foolish it was of us to belittle Bu Jing under the presumption that later-comers always rise above their predecessors.” This External World Martial Artist felt shame in his heart.
The night, like a tide, swept in swiftly and receded equally as quick. The encompassing darkness, along with the starlight, poured into Bu Jing’s body.
“So this is the realm beyond the External World, the Taoist Body of the Universe, the inclusion of stars in one’s body…” an External World Martial Artist muttered, enraptured by this magnificent spectacle.
Bu Jing had shut down all his senses, leaving only his consciousness active. Yet, he could still “see” the outside world clearly.
Every blade of grass, every tree, every mountain, every river, every movement…everything was clearly visible.
He could even perceive the initial disharmony within his body.
From the outside, Bu Jing appeared to be still. However, from the inside, one would see that his muscles, bones, joints, blood vessels, and so on were all making minute adjustments to attain the optimal state suitable for him.
The internal injuries he suffered during his breakthrough were also healing at a tremendously fast pace.
“I have comprehended all things, leaving no imperfections or omissions, and brought my body to perfection. This realm shall be named ‘Divine Invulnerability’.”
Bu Jing murmured to himself, smiling as he stood up to face Abbu. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Through his consciousness, he “saw” Abbu approaching alone.
Yet when Bu Jing opened his eyes, what he saw wasn’t just Abbu, but also Jiang Li and two others.
…How embarrassing.
He just boasted about comprehending all things, and yet, he couldn’t see three people.
Jiang Li and the two others looked at him with smirks concealed within their expressions.
It wasn’t Bu Jing’s fault. The three of them had intentionally concealed their auras to avoid Bu Jing’s detection.
“Well done. You’ve taken another step forward in your martial arts path. Having practiced to this point, you must have already established a comprehensive martial arts system,” Jiang Li said, lightly applauding.
Yu Yin nodded faintly. The Ring Universe valued pure physical combat. It was valuable for reference. After the world develops for a while longer, she could learn martial arts from it to enhance her close combat capabilities.
Bu Jing, living for three hundred years, quickly pretended not to be embarrassed, “Yes, I have established a fairly comprehensive martial arts system. I also have a vague idea about the next realm, but I’m not sure how many years it will take to reach it.”
“There’s no rush to breakthrough. The martial arts system you’ve founded must still have many gaps. Taking your time to fill them in before breaking through is also feasible,” Jiang Li suggested.
“Let’s spar. Show me how strong you’ve become.”
Bu Jing clenched his fists, “I dare not disobey your orders, Senior Jiang. However, if I were to use my full power now, I’m afraid I could shatter the continent. Could we go to space to test my skills?”
“That’s how it should be,” Jiang Li agreed.
With a spring in his legs, Bu Jing broke free from the constraint of gravity and entered space.
Upon reaching the Divine Invulnerability realm, he could complete internal circulation, eliminating the need for oxygen.
Bu Jing launched a punch, as mighty as a falling star, its force heavy and immense.
Before it could even reach Jiang Li, it was halted by an invisible barrier.
Jiang Li didn’t block the punch directly. Instead, he diverted the force contained within the punch, making it strike a planet. The planet instantly exploded.
“This punch is not bad. A Body Cultivation practitioner at the initial stage of the Body Integration Realm would have about this level of strength,” Jiang Li critiqued nonchalantly.
“Again, I won’t use the barrier this time.”
Gathering all his strength, Bu Jing was determined to bring out his best form to display to Jiang Li. His techniques were exquisite. He absorbed the essence and discarded the unnecessary from hundreds of martial arts styles. Coupled with his own understanding, he elevated his family’s martial arts technique, ‘Heaven-supporting Pillars’ to new heights.
His four limbs were like pillars, supporting the heavens and the earth, standing strong and unyielding.
“Good, very good,” Jiang Li said, effortlessly defusing Bu Jing’s techniques. Through their spar, he understood what kind of martial arts system Bu Jing had established.
There was still space for perfection.
But now that the martial arts system had been established to this stage, there was no longer a need to worry about it being interfered with by Cultivation systems.
“Let’s go back,” said Jiang Li. Before Bu Jing could react, he was already back where they had started.
Bu Jing was somewhat disappointed. He had originally thought that he would narrow the gap between him and Jiang Li after breaking through to the Divine Invulnerability realm. But now it seemed there was still an immense distance between them.
“I was originally contemplating whether or not to let you participate in the Jiuzhou Conference. However, now that you’ve reached the Divine Invulnerability realm, it appears I don’t have to worry about that anymore.”
“The Jiuzhou Conference?” The brothers had never heard of this conference, but from Jiang Li’s expression, it seemed that this conference held great potential benefits for them.
Jiang Li gave a brief explanation of the Jiuzhou Conference and the agenda for this gathering.
The brothers understood the weight of this meeting.
This was an excellent opportunity for the Ring Universe and Tenzhou World to establish diplomatic relations!
…
The ten days passed quickly, and, amid intense public attention, the much-anticipated Jiuzhou Conference was convened. Over a hundred factions attended the conference, all led by Martial Artists of the Body Integration Realm.
There were far more than these Body Integration Realm cultivators in Tenzhou. Many factions had multiple such cultivators, but only representatives were sent.
There was much interaction amongst Body Integration Realm cultivators; those who attended the conference were all somewhat acquainted with each other. Some were even old rivals or friends.
On this occasion, several new faces appeared amongst the Body Integration Realm cultivators.
Jiang Li stood up and condensed the lengthy opening speech, prepared meticulously by Captain Liu, into a few succinct sentences before he declared the commencement of the conference.
“I trust you’ve all received the topic materials that were distributed by the Imperial Palace. Yes, the topic of this conference is to discuss how to manage the relationship between Tenzhou World and other worlds.”
“Before we discuss this issue, allow me to introduce the representatives from the other worlds.”
“This person everyone should be familiar with, President Ming Zhong from the Ming Zhong World. I know you all enjoy purchasing goods from the Ming Zhong World.”
“These two are the saviors of the Zombie World, siblings Luo Ying and Luo Zhu. Do not belittle them simply because their cultivation level isn’t high. They are the students I personally trained, and I have high hopes for them.”
“These two are from the Ring Universe, the highest combatant, Bu Jing, and the supreme ruler, Bu Dong. You all may not be familiar with the Ring Universe yet. It is a martial arts world that doesn’t use spiritual energy but instead tempers the body to its limits. Currently, Bu Jing has cultivated his body to the Divine Invulnerability realm, and his power is about equal to that of the Body Integration Realm.”
“These two are the administrators of the Ancient World, Yu Feng and his senior sister Wu Lian. They are currently touring and studying in Tenzhou. Due to certain changes that took place, the Ancient World only has ordinary people, and these two are the only cultivators.”
“The pair with the close relationship are Xiao Qing and her boyfriend, Xia Chao, from Lingxi World. In Lingxi World, humans and beasts coexist. Xiao Qing, being a true dragon, claimed Lingxi World as her territory.”
“This is the leader and the director of the Supernatural Bureau from Wei Gu World. These two respectively represent the common humans and the supernatural beings of Wei Gu World, a world where a small portion of the population possesses superpowers.”
After the brief introductions by Jiang Li, a pause and a brief survey of the room, he declared, “I now proclaim that the Jiuzhou Conference begins.”
The crowd erupted into applause.
