Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 690 - 498 Physical Body Forms its Own World_2

With their keen eyesight, it was not difficult for them to see how extraordinary King Huai's physical body was, a testament to years of accumulation. At this stage, it was very hard for Gu Chen to match him.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by the roar of a dragon, imperial fighting spirit spread, and with a punch, King Huai sent Gu Chen flying, fresh blood constantly trickling from the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Gu Chen felt a wave of intense pain. Had it not been for his unparalleled physical body and the use of the Pure Yang Luili Body, the strike he had just taken would have shattered all his bones.

Even so, Gu Chen was in great discomfort, as if he was going to fall apart, with waves of pain radiating throughout his body.

This was the first time Gu Chen had competed in physical strength against another and suffered such a great loss.

King Huai also possessed Heavenly Body Refining Martial Skills, and it seemed his mastery was even higher than that of Gu Chen's, hence his superiority in physical strength.

After all, the age of his opponent was evident, and with King Huai's strong talent, plus various resources at his disposal, it was only natural for him to have cultivated his body to such an extent.

"It seems unnecessary to use other methods. With this alone, I am able to suppress you," King Huai said, then turned his gaze to the Tower Supervisor, adding, "Is this your choice, Tower Supervisor? I am quite disappointed."

Hum!

Suddenly, a formidable and majestic aura emerged, startling everyone present, who turned their gaze toward Gu Chen.

At this instant, Gu Chen stood in place, his physique robust and radiant with holy light, while 108 acupoints glowed on his body, each harboring a vague figure within. This tremendous and majestic aura was precisely emanating from them.

"What is this?! Are there divine spirits sitting cross-legged within the acupoints?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng, Yuan Feng, Mo Lun, and others from the higher realms were taken aback with surprise.

They hailed from the higher realms, naturally having unlocked all 108 acupoints of their bodies. However, they did not exhibit the phenomena that Gu Chen was now displaying.

"Could it be?"

An ancient legend surfaced in the minds of Lin Feng and the others at this moment. Instantly, the look they directed at Gu Chen changed from disdain to horror.

"Just a barbarian from the lower realm, can he really achieve this step?!" They were so shocked that they were reluctant to believe it.

And now, as the 108 acupoints emerged, one after another secret force burst forth, blessing Gu Chen's body and immediately causing his physical strength to soar tremendously.

"Hm?!"

King Huai was taken aback, his gaze fixed on the unfolding scene with a mix of surprise and uncertainty, clearly unaware of what it signified.

Boom!

In the next moment, Gu Chen charged forward. His body shone brilliantly, like a sovereign being born. He launched his attacks in full force, his punch heading straight for King Huai's chest and stirring up thousands of waves with its forceful qi, causing King Huai's heart to tremble.

Thud!

Fingers and palms clashed. At this moment, King Huai no longer had the upper hand. Simultaneously, he saw a halo appear around Gu Chen's body. It wasn't a domain, yet it helped Gu Chen fend off all damage.

"Indeed, the body has become a realm. He has taken that step!" Lin Feng and Mo Lun gnashed their teeth. They felt indignant and were consumed by jealousy.

To have the body become a realm was a legend even in the higher realms, achievable only when the physical body of every realm was honed to the limit.

The vague figures sitting cross-legged in the acupoints were an interpretation of reaching this stage.

If having the body sanctified was a tangible realm with clear traces but low probability of success, then having the body become its own realm was truly legendary, almost never accomplished even in the higher realms.

It is said that if one really could reach the realm of the body becoming its own realm, by then a martial artist would no longer need to rely on the external universe. With an internal world formed within the body, one would be able to traverse the vast starry sky and survive countless calamities without perishing.

Of course, this was just a legend. While bodily sanctification exists in the upper realms, the body becoming its own realm has never truly occurred, existing only within the most ancient of texts.

This was an extraordinary achievement that not even the lords of the sacred lands or the leaders of Da Sect, the so-called giants of the upper realms, had reached!

And yet now, they were witnessing it in the lower realm, on Gu Chen, causing them great distress.

They were unwilling to believe it was true, but the vague figures sitting cross-legged in the 108 acupoints on Gu Chen's body proved he had already awakened the divinity or perhaps the potential within his flesh.

And that seemingly ephemeral halo around his body was the embryonic form of the "body's domain" recorded in ancient texts.

All of these signs indicated that in the future, Gu Chen had a chance to truly take that step.

Yes, just a chance, not a certainty, for it was an incredibly difficult feat, one that not even the beings surpassing the saints of holy lands in the upper realms could accomplish.

The phenomena now exhibited by Gu Chen's body only proved he possessed such potential, the talent for transcendence into sanctity in the path of the body, but it did not guarantee his success.

Even at this current level, his prowess was already astonishing. If such a person appeared in the upper realm, he would instigate a scramble among all the top powerhouses.

But in this moment, Lin Feng and the others were gritting their teeth, wishing nothing more than for Gu Chen to fall apart and die without a whole corpse.

The flames of jealousy burned fiercely in their hearts.

Gu Chen also noticed the odd expressions on Lin Feng and the others. Clearly, they knew something, and Gu Chen had decided that after resolving the matter here, he would interrogate the trio.

Boom!

At that time, the imperial fighting spirit boiled over. King Huai launched a punch, the dragon howling loudly, intent on killing Gu Chen right then and there.

"You have no chance!" Gu Chen rebuked coldly. His body's acupoints radiated light, with each vague figure releasing power, further awakening the potential within his physique.

Bang!

With a single punch, heaven and earth shook. Gu Chen sent King Huai flying, instantly reversing the tide of battle.

"Good!"

Upon seeing this, Qin Wu, the Deputy Commander of Jing Tian Department, shouted out loud with excitement on his face.

"Imperial Dragon Fist!"

At that moment, King Huai's gaze was cold, and the Gang Wind danced around him. With a roar, the large dragon behind him leaped into his palm. Golden imperial fighting spirit surged as he struck with a punch powerful enough to upheave the heavens and overturn rivers and mountains!

"Eight Heavenly Dragons, Mountain and Sea Fist Scripture!"

In this crossroads of King Huai's fierce assault, Gu Chen's expression was stern as he used two Earthly Martial Skills, both perfected to the utmost degree.

Instantly, eight heavenly dragons coiled around Gu Chen, transferring their strength to him. His hands glowed brilliantly with unparalleled punching intent, engaging in a colossal clash with King Huai's Imperial Dragon Fist.

With a boom, blinding light swallowed everything in sight!
