Chapter 226: Breaking Through To the Sixth Stage, Divine Might Tyrant Body, Golden Dragons Heavy Gaze (II)



Chapter 226: Breaking Through To the Sixth Stage, Divine Might Tyrant Body, Golden Dragon's Heavy Gaze (II)

Phew!

Chen Chu suppressed his excitement, his gaze sweeping over his four major attributes.

This breakthrough in his art had increased his Physique by 100 points after condensing the Tyrant Body, while his Strength attribute had skyrocketed by 200. The other attributes had been increased as well, but they had only been surface-level changes.

Chen Chu closed the attribute page and slowly flexed his arms. In an instant, his arm muscles swelled, and an immensely powerful force erupted from within him, causing his surroundings to tremble.

Boom!

The earth shook with a roar like that of a dragon and an elephant. His fist, covered in golden dragon scales, smashed forward, instantly compressing the air ahead of it into liquid and forming a rolling wall of air that crashed against the room’s distant wall.

Boom!

The entire cultivation room trembled continuously from the exploding air waves caused by this movement, as the winds howled. When they subsided, a fist imprint with a diameter of three meters and a depth of twenty centimeters had appeared on the steel wall, as if a giant's fist had struck it.

"Such domineering power," Chen Chu exclaimed softly.

He hadn’t actually used any true power just now, but simply relied on the sheer force of his physical body. He hadn't expected that terrifying of a result.

It was truly worthy of the title of the Divine Might Tyrant Body, rumored to possess the power of a colossal beast. Chen Chu's physical body was now as robust as that of a dragon, transcending ordinary flesh, and the golden scales on his body provided formidable defense.

In addition, the strength of his muscles had completely unified as one, and after merging with true power, it became even more fierce and unparalleled in dominance.

Feeling the seemingly earth-shaking power within him, Chen Chu had the sensation that he could fell even a cultivator of the Sixth Heavenly Realm with a single punch.

It wasn’t just a feeling this time; he truly had become that strong. While his cultivation was only at the middle stage of the Fifth Heavenly Realm, the transformation of the Divine Might Tyrant Body combined with his formidable physical strength had made his combat power explosively increase. He would need to find a level 6 mutated beast to test exactly how strong it had become.

However, the breakthrough wasn't over yet. Chen Chu flipped his hand and took out the two level 4 Life Crystals, and his thoughts echoed in his mind. Convert to attribute points.

"You have converted two level 4 Life Crystals, gaining 72 and 81 attribute points."

The attribute points on the page immediately surged from 18 to 171. Seeing this, Chen Chu's thoughts echoed in his mind again. Consume attribute points to enhance the Hidden Divinity secret art.

The reason for enhancing the secret art wasn't to show off, but mainly because he had only been in the mutated beast battlefield for less than a month. It was better to remain low-key for now.

Moreover, the advanced Hidden Divinity secret art would be very helpful for his upcoming ventures, such as going deeper into the Yunwu Mountains to hunt level 6 mutated beasts and search for resources.

Either way, once he returned after killing a level 6 mutated beast, he wouldn't need to challenge anyone. His ranking on the Achievement List would skyrocket, exposing his strength.

Of course, if he encountered one of the top ten cultivators on the Achievement List in the mountains, he could still challenge them. How would those geniuses fare against him now?

As Chen Chu's thoughts fell, the newly acquired attribute points instantly fell back down to 21.

At the same time, an invisible force emerged within him, and the vitality runes that had once integrated into his shoulders and abdomen appeared, shattered, and fused with that force.

Gradually, a complete and ancient rune emerged.

*

It was five o'clock in the afternoon. Chen Chu had spent a few more hours cultivating, thoroughly familiarizing himself with his newfound power before activating the Hidden Divinity secret art and leaving the cultivation room.

As he walked over to the base square, he saw several Fourth Heavenly Realm senior students sitting and idly chatting on the steps.

"Brother, I heard you struck gold."

"Hehe! Struck gold? Just stumbled upon a few Qingyu Snow Lotuses, that's all."

"Damn, you actually found Qingyu Snow Lotuses? How many?"

"Six. These lotuses were growing in a pond on the edge of the Jiuhuan Mountains, but they hadn't bloomed yet, so I had to wait for about a month. A full month. You know what I was doing that whole time? Eating mutated wild game every day, it's almost making me sick."

"Damn, you're lucky as hell."

"Yeah, if I found six Qingyu Lotuses, I'd gladly eat wild game for two months." Envy flashed in the eyes of the surrounding people.

The Qingyu Snow Lotus was a high-level plant resource, valued at 60 contribution points per lotus. Consuming it could greatly increase one’s total amount of true power after refining. However, excessive consumption could lead to that true power being not condensed enough, hindering breakthroughs in cultivation realms.

When finding these types of resources in the wild, students would wait for them to mature while also uploading data coordinates and marking them as guarded by someone. This practice served as an official certification, preventing others from snatching them away.

The main purpose of this was to avoid conflicts that could damage these natural treasures, and to prevent some Fourth Heavenly Realm geniuses from bullying others. After all, this area still fell under the school's jurisdiction, and their aim was to nurture students, not let them engage in feuds and battles like gangs.

Of course, this method was only effective around the base. In places like the Yunwu Mountains, it became significantly harder to enforce, since the satellites couldn’t monitor those areas.

Suddenly, red characters flashed on the square’s big screen.

"Ji Changkong of Nantian Martial Arts High School has counterattacked Baili Yun of Heshan Martial Arts High School, and currently ranks seventy-fifth on the Achievement List."

Defeating senior students above one’s year was known as a counterattack, so even though they had seen many red characters on the big screen in the past few days, there was still a stir in the square.

"Damn, Ji Changkong has already made it into the top hundred of the Achievement List. Didn't he just recently break through to the middle stage of the Fifth Realm not long ago? And that Bai Liyun had broken through to the middle stage last year. His strength is unfathomable."

"Unfathomable my foot. He hasn't even advanced to the late stage in almost half a year. Just maintaining his position is more like it. How could someone who just relies on time like him be a challenge for a freak like Changkong?"

"Hey, aren't you being a bit disrespectful to us seniors by saying that? Can you reach the middle stage of the Fifth Realm by just relying on time?

Suddenly, the second-year student in the Third Heavenly Realm felt a bit embarrassed and quickly apologized. "Sorry, I misspoke."

While the base was in an uproar over Ji Changkong’s feat, in the office building halfway up the mountain, Chen Qi and several other teachers were standing by the window.

"Talented individuals emerge in every generation," Yu Qinghua couldn’t help but exclaim, as he looked at the shining characters on the big screen. "I don't know why, but whenever I see these young people advancing by leaps and bounds, and getting stronger with each generation, I genuinely feel happy."

Chen Qi said lightly, "Of course, this indicates that our education system is becoming more and more perfect, and that the foundation of the human race is getting stronger.

"Think about it. Over a decade ago, only a few freaks could break through to the Fourth Heavenly Realm when we were in school. We were only at the Third Realm when we graduated. Who could have imagined that today, more than a decade later, these third-year students could reach the peak of the Fifth Realm before graduating?

"Look at Ji Changkong from the second year, Chen Chu, An Fuqing, Li Hao, and others from the first year. With their cultivation speed, they might break through to the Sixth Realm by the time they're third-years."

Another female teacher exclaimed, "I just hope these students carry a heart of gratitude when they leave the school, and become pillars of the country rather than traitors.

"The ones they should be most thankful to are the pioneers. If it weren't for Heavenly King Zhenwu and the others proposing the massive plan back then, exhausting their efforts to create the Foundation Building Arts, and leading the legions to occupy a large number of resources to feed back into the country, there wouldn't be enough available for these students to cultivate."

The others nodded slightly. These students' rapid cultivation was due to this favorable environment; high-level and even high-quality resources could be exchanged for with just a little effort. Otherwise, without these resources, even freaks like them couldn't break through to the Fifth Heavenly Realm so quickly through sheer cultivation.

As for those students with average talent, they shouldn't harbor any unrealistic dreams like advancing without ten or twenty years of effort.

Just then, red characters flashed on the big screen once again.

"Hong Tianyi, Nantian Martial Arts High School, Fourth Heavenly Realm. Broke through on March 5th. Ranked 37th on the first-year Genius List!"

"Another genius from our Nantian has made it onto the list."

At the edge of the square, Chen Chu, who was passing by, paused when he saw Hong Tianyi putting down his hand not far away, a smile on his face. "Hong Tianyi, congratulations on breaking through."

After more than half a month, seeing one of the classmates who had come to the battlefield with him caused Chen Chu’s eyes to reveal some emotions.

He himself was already in the middle stage of the Fifth Heavenly Realm.

Hong Tianyi smiled gently with his scholarly demeanor. "Oh, not at all. Compared to you guys, I'm already half a month late."

Chen Chu shook his head. "Half a month isn't one or two years. For us cultivators, time passes in the blink of an eye. Who knows, one day you might surpass us at an even faster pace."

Hong Tianyi modestly replied, "It's not that simple. I just hope you guys slow down a bit and wait for me."

However, despite saying this, Hong Tianyi's eyes were filled with confidence. As Chen Chu had said, the difference in breakthrough time between each other was only half a month.

This amount of time was insignificant to cultivators beyond the Fourth Heavenly Realm. He truly could step into the middle stage, late stage, or even the Fifth Heavenly Realm before anyone else.

Having just returned and dusty from his journey, Hong Tianyi exchanged a few words with Chen Chu before they both went their separate ways.

The next morning, after packing up and replenishing some supplies, Chen Chu set out once again.

This time, he planned to venture deep into the Yunwu Mountain Range to hunt down level 6 mutated beasts, and test just how strong his power was now after the breakthrough.
