Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 527 - 396 Breaking Through to Godhood_1

```

All that happened in Kyushu, Gu Chen was unaware of at that moment, as he lay unconscious.

Not long before, during his battle with the former valley master of Ling Yun Valley, Huo Ke, Gu Chen had given it his all, even using the Taixu Transformation Dragon Chapter and his final trump card, the Heavenly Seed.

However, as a late-stage Divine Ascension realm fighter, Huo Ke’s power was ultimately insurmountable, and despite Gu Chen’s best efforts, there lay too great a gap between their realms—a whole major realm of difference—making it impossible for Gu Chen to kill Huo Ke.

After this battle, Gu Chen sustained severe injuries, and the reason the Tower Supervisor couldn’t deduce Gu Chen’s whereabouts was that Gu Chen was indeed not in Kyushu, having left that world.

At this moment, Gu Chen found himself in a vast expanse of chaos, foggy and indistinct, boundless and immense, as if he had entered the primordial world.

This was the world inside the Heavenly Seed, which Gu Chen entered just before falling unconscious.

Because he was within the inner world of the Heavenly Seed, the Tower Supervisor couldn’t predict his whereabouts using the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill.

This was a chaotic world, for the Heavenly Seed had not yet formally taken root and sprouted. As Gu Chen continued to grow, the chaos inside the Heavenly Seed would also evolve, eventually transforming into a true and complete world, no longer desolate like it currently was.

In the chaos, strands of bizarre energy flowed into Gu Chen’s body, aiding in his recovery from injury.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Gu Chen, floating within the chaos of the Heavenly Seed’s inner world, finally awakened.

"Huh…"

Gu Chen’s eyes snapped open, and he exhaled a long breath, muttering to himself, "That was close."

If he had not had the Heavenly Seed, his odds of falling in the battle with Huo Ke would have been extremely high.

"Is this the world within the Heavenly Seed?"

Gu Chen sat up and started to look around, this being his first time inside.

"Eh, my divine sense?"

At that moment, Gu Chen suddenly felt his brain working incredibly fast, his spirit was vibrant and extremely focused, multiple times stronger than before his unconsciousness.

Then, as if remembering something, Gu Chen hurriedly pulled up the panel and looked at the section for martial arts.

"Just as I thought!"

A smile formed on Gu Chen’s lips, for during his unconsciousness, he had turned misfortune into a blessing—the Refining Spirit Secret had automatically reached the realm of perfection without relying on any merit points!

How could this not bring immense joy to Gu Chen?!

"At the brink of life and death, there truly is no better path to a martial breakthrough," Gu Chen mused to himself.

During the last battle with Huo Ke, he frantically cycled the Refining Spirit Secret to defend against Huo Ke’s divine intent attacks and spiritual martial arts. After hundreds upon thousands of cycles and the external pressure from Huo Ke, the Refining Spirit Secret had actually reached the realm of perfection during the fight, but at the time, he had simply not realized it.

Otherwise, even with the protection of the Heavenly Seed, it wouldn’t have been possible for him to regain consciousness so quickly.

With the Refining Spirit Secret reaching perfection, and despite Gu Chen’s period of unconsciousness, the power of the Heavenly Seed continually aided in his healing. It not only allowed him to recover from his injuries but also helped him solidify his realm and condense divine sense.

This was the power of the Heavenly Seed, with all its mysterious abilities. Otherwise, how could it be named a "supreme treasure"?

"No wonder the Six Great Holy Lands so covet the Heavenly Seed," Gu Chen sighed, acknowledging the extraordinary nature of the Heavenly Seed.

Not to mention in Kyushu, even in other worlds with more complete laws of heaven and earth, the Heavenly Seed is a rarity that emerges once in many years.

This was still just the nascent state of the Heavenly Seed. Once its internal world fully evolved, it would become even more extraordinary.

Moreover, at that time, the true power of the Heavenly Seed would be unleashed. The power that Gu Chen had currently tapped into was less than one percent of what the Heavenly Seed could offer.

"Now that my divine sense is formed and my cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm, I can start to break through to the Divine Ascension," Gu Chen murmured, unable to hide the excitement in his expression.

Martial Ascension to Divinity!

This was a realm many in Kyushu dreamt about and aspired to reach, revered as top-notch grandmasters, elusive and distinguished, a few in number, each a towering figure in the martial world, renowned for decades.

Nobody could have imagined that less than a year after Gu Chen’s breakthrough to the Innate Realm, he would be able to condense divine sense and achieve the status of a top-notch grandmaster in Martial Ascension to Divinity.

This was even more astonishing and rare than reaching the Innate Realm at the age of twenty-two!

With Gu Chen’s talent and combat prowess, once he achieved Martial Ascension to Divinity, there would be very few in the entire world that could make him wary.

At that time, many things he had been unable to do previously could then be initiated and planned.

Facing the now turbulent Kyushu, Gu Chen could truly be said to have become a veritable overlord.

Whoosh!

With a mere thought from Gu Chen, his entire being instantly left the chaotic inner world of the Heavenly Seed and reappeared in Kyushu.

Having been absent for so long, Gu Chen knew, without anyone telling him, that Kyushu was probably in chaos.

But right now, breaking through to Divine Ascension was most crucial; everything else could wait.

Afterward, Gu Chen found a secluded place and began his closed-door cultivation.

Hum!

In the dim cavern, invisible divine sense spread from Gu Chen’s glabella, and at that moment, he felt the various powers contained within heaven and earth, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, ice, fire, and more.

```

"The power of heaven and earth is so diverse; it turns out that my vision was too narrow before," Gu Chen only felt a whirl of dizziness.

In the innate realm, martial practitioners can resonate with heaven and earth only superficially, and the force they can mobilize is very limited.

But once the Divine Passage realm is reached, there occurs a qualitative change because after the condensation of divine thoughts, one can perceive heaven and earth on a deeper level, and employ even more powerful forces of heaven and earth.

It is for this reason that martial practitioners can draw deep forces of heaven and earth into their bodies with divine thoughts, refining themselves, causing the innate true qi to transform once again.

"According to legend, warriors of the Divine Intent Realm can change the weather in a single thought, causing the wind and clouds of heaven and earth to shift. It seems absolutely true," Gu Chen pondered.

Already so powerful at the Divine Passage realm, able to condense various forces of heaven and earth, Gu Chen found it hard to imagine just how strong a warrior of the Divine Intent Realm could be, beyond what is recorded in the ancient texts.

Not to mention, between the two realms lies the Coagulation Field realm.

No wonder, in the tens of thousands of years in Kyushu, there have been few warriors who have reached the Divine Intent Realm—one could count them on one hand.

As his cultivation continually improved, Gu Chen increasingly felt the strength of the demon sect leader Dugu Yun, as well as Emperor Xia.

Then, Gu Chen cleared his distractions, his divine thought condensed, and he began to communicate with heaven and earth.

Boom!

In the next instant, as Gu Chen’s thoughts moved, within a radius of fifty li, heaven and earth buzzed, rolling essence qi flowed through the void and poured into Gu Chen’s body.

This vision was incredibly startling; the land in a radius of fifty li trembled, streams of qi flitted and spiraled, and Gu Chen seemed to have transformed into a vortex, an abyss, frantically absorbing the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi.

Normally, when a martial practitioner breaks through to the Divine Passage realm, the range is at most ten to twenty li, but Gu Chen reached an astonishing fifty li, causing nearly a storm in this area of heaven and earth, stirring up a massive tempest.

Fortunately, before going into seclusion, Gu Chen had specially chosen a desolate place, and after scouting the surrounding environment, which was utterly barren, he decided to break through here.

In these rarely traversed barren lands, it was more convenient for him to break through.

At this moment, the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi, like a dragon, flowed through Gu Chen’s mouth and nose, clinging to his pores, pouring into his body.

The Great Day True Qi within Gu Chen, which had accumulated for sixteen hundred years, became even purer with the irrigation from these Heavenly Earth Essence Qis.

Not only that, sensing that Gu Chen was breaking through, the heavenly seed within him trembled gently, unleashing mysterious powers that helped refine his body and purify his cultivation.

Meanwhile, the natural energy within Gu Chen surged as if he were on a rocket, escalating rapidly!

Crackling!

Sounds of bursting echoed from within Gu Chen’s body from time to time as his muscles, skeletal structure, and even his internal organs vibrated, expelling fine black impurities.

At the same time, nourished by the power of the heavenly seed, his blood became even more vividly red and dripping, with strands of rosy light faintly flickering.

As a result, Gu Chen’s vitality became even more surging, each pulse throbbing like a restless ocean.

It could be said that because of the heavenly seed, Gu Chen had undergone another rebirth in this realm!

This was the power of the heavenly seed; with each breakthrough, the seed would release its power, sublimating and transforming from the most fundamental place—purifying every inch of his body.

Therefore, having the heavenly seed is akin to stepping onto an invincible path—with higher realms attained, the gap between him and others would only widen.

Such a sensation was incredibly wondrous; Gu Chen was completely immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.

Every aspect of Gu Chen’s spirit and vitality continued to soar as if there were no limits.

Soon, seven days had passed.

In these seven days, Gu Chen was in the midst of breaking through, his accumulation of innate true qi exceptionally vast, and naturally, the breakthrough took longer.

Boom boom boom!

With a final hum from the heaven and earth within the fifty li radius, all the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi shaped into a colossal pillar of qi, pouring in from the top of his head—Gu Chen’s breakthrough was officially a success.

"Is this the Divine Passage of martial arts?"

Gu Chen stood up and silently felt the power within his body—in his current state, he truly possessed the strength to move mountains and split the earth.

It was not just an illusion anymore!

Without the need to mobilize his cultivation or communicate with heaven and earth, Gu Chen, relying on his physical body alone, was now more than sufficient!

Furthermore, after experiencing the transformation of the heavenly seed and the breakthrough, Gu Chen’s divine thoughts became even more concentrated, able to traverse far distances in an instant.

His cultivation was the same—although it remained at sixteen hundred years without any change, the quality had multiplied several fold!

Gu Chen was confident that if he faced Huo Ke again, he could thoroughly crush him!

Even though Gu Chen had only just entered the Divine Passage realm and was in its early stages, with his accumulation, even those in the later stages of the Divine Passage realm would not be his match!

"Six Union God Sect, Ling Yun Valley!" As he thought of that previous battle, Gu Chen’s eyes became colder.

Since his debut, that had been his most difficult battle. The difference in realm between the two sides was too great, and in the end, with no other choice, he had to withdraw temporarily.

This time, having reached the Divine Passage realm, Gu Chen’s first task after coming out of seclusion was to trample Ling Yun Valley!
