Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

...

Time flowed indefinitely, and finally, as endless Heavenly Earth Essence Qi infused his body, Gu Chen finally condensed the first strand of innate true qi within him.

Great Day True Qi!

The golden Great Day True Qi was extremely dense, nearing a liquid state from its gaseous form. Each strand of Great Day True Qi resembled a golden flame, possessing an astonishingly high temperature capable of burning everything.

After the first strand of innate true qi was born, the subsequent accumulation sped up considerably.

With the help of the sacred seed within his body, it didn't take long for Gu Chen to transform all the true gang within him into innate true qi.

At this moment, Gu Chen was seated in the pitch-black void, the power of the sacred seed safeguarding him, allowing him to exist here unharmed for a short time.

While all of Gu Chen's cultivation was being transformed into innate true qi, his physical body, under the nourishment of the rolling Heavenly Earth Essence Qi and the power of the sacred seed, made the official transition from the acquired to the innate, achieving the so-called innate flawless body.

Hum!

One hundred and eight acupoints on Gu Chen's body illuminated, radiating waves of sacred brilliance. Within each acupoint, a holy spirit seemed to be seated, with surging holy power circulating within, bestowing upon Gu Chen added strength.

Boom!

At this instant, Gu Chen's blood surged tumultuously within him, too richly endowed. With each pulse, thunder-like sounds echoed. Moreover, his flesh radiated halos, each drop of blood crystal clear like blood diamonds, without a single flaw, utterly translucent.

After the initial integration with the sacred seed, Gu Chen's life force underwent a transformation, his foundational talents and aptitudes experiencing an earth-shattering change compared to before.

This was a true defying of fate!

His flesh, his blood, his bones, and even his internal organs all underwent fundamental metamorphoses.

Gu Chen sat there, his body like resplendent and brilliant golden glazed armament, extraordinarily remarkable. His bones were as hard as divine weapons, and when his organs functioned, the sound of thunder echoed forth.

Especially his heart, its beats produced intense sounds like the war drums of the celestial realm, red halos spreading one after another, dazzlingly brilliant and resplendent.

The heart, being the source of life and the foundation of a martial artist, its formidable nature was an indicator of Gu Chen's current extraordinary physique.

If Gu Chen so wished, the mere sound of his heart beating could be enough to shock many of his enemies to death.

Now, every part of Gu Chen's body could be considered the sharpest of weapons, even the hair hanging down to his waist became indestructible amidst its shimmering light.

At this moment, Gu Chen's physical body exceeded even the category of inferior divine weapons, and with a mere light squeeze of his palm, even an inferior divine weapon would be ground into powder.

Boom!

Gu Chen shook his body, and immediately a vast surge of blood qi spilled out from the pores all over his body; the blood was fresh and radiant, dazzling enough to shatter the void.

This blood qi was so abundant it resembled the vast sea, seemingly boundless and inexhaustible.

With his hair disheveled and his body glowing brightly, Gu Chen sat there radiating a terrifying oppressive force. He did not resemble a member of the Human Clan, but rather a primordial divine mountain standing firmly in this place.

After the breakthrough to the innate realm, both Gu Chen's physical body and cultivation had made breakthroughs, emitting such a strong suppressive aura that it could subdue all things upon release.

"An incomparable power," Gu Chen softly said, feeling the astonishingly powerful force flowing within him. Without even using his cultivation or the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi of the outside world, merely with his physical body, one punch from Gu Chen could cause a mountain peak to fail to withstand the force, collapsing on the spot.

His body's surface radiated with treasure-like luminescence, while the sacred seed quietly nested within his dantian. After being suppressed by the sacred seed, the mysterious gauntlets remained silent and motionless, without any disturbance.

Now that he had begun to integrate with the sacred seed, Gu Chen had discovered its true nature.

It was indeed just a seed, but no ordinary seed; it required the absorption of the power of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon, and only after innumerable years could it mature.

If it wasn't for the fact that an ultimate power from the ancient times had laid down this grand formation within the sanctuary, it would have taken at least ten thousand years for the sacred seed to mature.

All of this could only be described as destiny, and in the end, it was Gu Chen who benefited.

"A seed, harboring a world inside," murmured Gu Chen, his eyes sparkling as he spoke.

This was the secret of the sacred seed, containing the power of a world within it, and capable of growing alongside its host.

Ordinary seeds root in soil, but the sacred seed had rooted itself within Gu Chen's body, growing with him.

Currently, with Gu Chen's strength being modest, the sacred seed was nourishing him in return. Once Gu Chen's strength reached a certain level, the sacred seed would draw nutrients from him, take root and sprout, and give birth to a world.

As for the sacred seed at the moment, it had just matured. Even though it contained the power of a world and the rules of heaven and earth, it still required a lengthy period to grow.

From now on, the sacred seed would be thoroughly integrated within Gu Chen, growing with him until, in the end, it would evolve a world within his body.

"Truly a treasure coveted by the six great holy lands, this is akin to the power of a world-creating god," Gu Chen mused to himself. The sacred seed could nurture a world inside, and when the power of that world became his alone, how powerful would he become?

Of course, even now, with his body and cultivation bathed in the power of the sacred seed's world, he was immensely strong.

In terms of cultivation, although he had just broken through to the innate realm at the initial stage, the purity of the innate true qi in his body was no lesser than that of a grandmaster of martial arts who had reached the great circle of completion in the innate realm.

"From today onward, I too have attained the position of a grandmaster of martial arts. Across the vast lands of the nine provinces, I now have the power to protect myself, unafraid of the majority of people," he declared.

With both his physique and cultivation having broken through and initially integrated with the sacred seed, Gu Chen decided to leave seclusion and exit the area.

Naturally, he would not disclose the news of merging with the sacred seed to anyone, not even those closest to him.

The sacred seed was a matter of great consequence, and if word got out, it would lead to an enormous upheaval.

Not to mention others, just the six great holy lands alone would certainly not let him go.

At this thought, considering the six great holy lands, a cold light flickered in Gu Chen's eyes. He had not forgotten the actions of Yuwen Wind and the other three from before.

Not seeking revenge was not in Gu Chen's nature.

The entire sanctuary had been created because of the sacred seed. Now that the sacred seed had merged with Gu Chen, the sanctuary would collapse after a period of time.

Gu Chen planned to use this time to slay Yuwen Wind and the other three right here!

Moreover, he was quite eager to see what splendid expressions would cross the faces of Yuwen Wind, Ouyang Yu, Xi Mu, and Lin Bai when they realized he was still alive.
