Chapter 310: Innate Awakener Chen Chu, Bloodline Physique, Three in One (I)

In reality, Chen Chu was also an Innate Awakener. However, the innate ability he awakened was related to his soul, which had split in half and been implanted into a six-horned salamander.

This split was not a simple avatar, but a true bifurcation of his being, creating two independent yet fundamentally connected existences.

Relative to the main body of his soul, the six-horned salamander had also awakened innately, gaining the complete ability to evolve. Combined with the enhancement of half of its innate abilities from his main body, this explained why the colossal beast's power grew much faster than that of his human form.

If it weren't for the soul power that Chen Chu had condensed in his previous life forming the attribute page as he understood it, the gap between his human form and the colossal beast would have been even greater.

Chen Chu didn't mind this situation, as both forms were essentially him. In fact, the speed at which his power increased was already terrifying, covering ground in six months that took many geniuses years or even decades to traverse, and it was accelerating.

However, compared to the Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast’s growth, his main body's progress seemed relatively slow.

Glancing at the remaining 800 attribute points, Chen Chu pondered briefly, his gaze falling on the Hidden Divinity secret art, which had already advanced significantly.

This time, the Thunder Beast had grown close to an emperor-level creature. While this didn't directly feed back into his main body's strength, there were still some changes, such as the faintly pervasive aura of ferocity around him.

Given the unified nature of his soul, this overbearing pressure from the higher life stage was also present in Chen Chu. Therefore, he needed to conceal it—not to play the fool, but to catch others off guard and avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Consume 500 attribute points, maximum enhancement of the Hidden Divinity secret art."

In an instant, the secret arts’ runes, which had been integrated into Chen Chu's body, reemerged and became increasingly complex as they absorbed the energy from the attribute points, gradually forming a "person".

Hum!

As the runes condensed, a faint black shadow appeared behind Chen Chu, like an invisible, transparent entity. As it merged into him, his ferocious aura instantly retracted, creating an almost elusive presence. It seemed that merely glancing away would make one overlook him.

Another complete rune had appeared. Chen Chu's gaze fell on the attribute page.

Rune: Hidden Divinity [Conceal one's aura, reduce presence, can briefly eliminate one's presence when active]

"Eliminate presence!"

Chen Chu's gaze flickered as he subconsciously activated the rune, instantly disappearing without a trace. He still sat at the edge of the bed, but even when looking directly at him, one would instinctively overlook him.

This scene was somewhat similar to when Luo Fei had operated her art back at the shooting range, but his existence vanished even more thoroughly, touching upon the power of laws.

"These runes obtained through maximum enhancement are truly extraordinary."

Many people had cultivated the Hidden Divinity secret art, and numerous advanced cultivators, who had practiced it for over ten or twenty years, had already cultivated it to an advanced level, reaching the limit and condensing runes.

However, Chen Chu felt that their Hidden Divinity runes were not as powerful as his. At least, the art's description never mentioned the ability to completely erase one's presence, even if only temporarily.

Once he acted and exposed his aura, it would automatically deactivate, but it was still remarkable. It was similar to his Divine Might Dragon Elephant rune, which was also more complete and complex than the one condensed by the art’s creator.

Chen Chu had discovered this when analyzing the Divine Might Dragon Elephant secret scripture; it seemed that the runes of the arts he maximally enhanced using attribute points reached a theoretically perfect state.

After testing the new rune's function, Chen Chu's gaze shifted to the attributes of the Thunder Fiery Colossal Beast.

Avatar: Ancient Six-Horned Thunder Fiery Emperor Beast

Level: Ancient Colossal Beast [Possesses seven innate abilities, mutated beast with activated ancient bloodline, pseudo-emperor]

Physical Abilities: Strength+ [Top-Level], Defense+ [Top-Level], Agility+ [High-Level], Regeneration+ [High-Level], Toxin+ [High-Level]

Transcendent Abilities: Golden Flames+ [High-Level], Thunderbolt [High-Level]

Evolution Points: 17800/30000

Due to the abundance of innate abilities, the attribute page had become very concise. When Chen Chu focused on a particular ability, detailed information would automatically appear.

For instance, the Golden Flames, enhanced to high-level, possessed a constant high temperature of ten thousand degrees Celsius, with five times the energy capacity and a more extreme burning effect.

The Thunderbolt ability was similar, being several times stronger than at middle-level, though the increase in power had not yet reached a transformative level and thus lacked the earth-shattering effects.

This was likely because the Thunder Fiery Emperor Beast had not yet reached the emperor-level. Even so, after breaking through to level 8 and the subsequent secondary growth, the preliminary fusion of its major innate abilities had caused a significant increase in the Thunder Beast's combat power.

Originally just on the edge of level 9, the Thunder Beast's strength, with the basic fusion of its major abilities, now rivaled that of a beginning or even middle stage level 9 colossal beast.

As for which side would win in a fight, it would only be known through actual combat. Compared to level 8, when domains had just been acquired, the fusion of major abilities in level 9 colossal beasts formed a more powerful domain, and the potency of their innate abilities was greatly enhanced.

In this context, a beginning stage level 8 Thunder Beast being able to rival a level 9 colossal beast meant its combat power had become exceptionally formidable.

Additionally, the evolution points accumulated for the fifth evolution had reached nearly two-thirds, and it was expected that the next evolution would bring it to the peak of level 9, after which it could activate the ancient aura in one go to break through to the mythical level.

The fifth evolution could be astonishing.

The next morning, as Chen Chu opened the door, he encountered Qingqiu Mingyue coming to visit Yan Ruoyi.

Today, the young girl was wearing a long pink sleeveless dress, which reached her knees. The outer layer was a transparent pink pleated gauze skirt, giving her a vibrant and youthful appearance.

Especially striking were the white fox ears on her head, making her look both cute and charming. She skipped past Chen Chu with light and lively steps.

Huh?

Qingqiu Mingyue stopped in her tracks as she passed Chen Chu, turning back with a puzzled expression. Looking at him standing in the doorway, she said curiously, "Strange, I didn't even notice you standing here, Chu Batian."

Chen Chu, wearing sunglasses, responded calmly, "I've made some breakthroughs in my aura-concealing secret art."

"Oh, that explains it. I was wondering how such a big person like you could stand here without me noticing." The fox-eared girl nodded, still somewhat curious. “What art are you cultivating? It seems really impressive."

Chen Chu replied casually, "It's just the ordinary Hidden Divinity. However, secret arts, like other cultivation techniques, vary with the cultivator. It just happens to work a bit better for me."

"That makes sense." The fox-eared girl nodded, though she still felt something was slightly off.

While they were talking, they arrived at Yan Ruoyi's suite next door. The fox-eared girl skipped into the bedroom, calling out, "Sister Ruoyi, I want to go try on some outfits with you."

"Sure, Mingyue. You look so pretty; you'll look even more stunning in those stage costumes."

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Sister Ruoyi. But I think you look even more beautiful."

As Qingqiu Mingyue entered the bedroom, Chen Chu stayed in the living room. Sitting on the sofa, he flipped his hand to reveal the Divine Might Dragon Elephant secret scripture.

The spatial passage had been completed, and now it was time to continue deducing the secret scripture.

When the time came, he would directly enhance his attributes to break through to the Seventh Heavenly Realm. As long as the secret art's refinement kept pace, he could quickly break through to the Eighth or even Ninth Realm.

As for the summoning secret art, he planned to wait until the seventh stage of this secret scripture was fully deduced.

By then, the Thunder Beast should have also grown to level 9, touching upon the laws. At that point, the projection of an emperor-level level 9 colossal beast would be his second trump card.

However, as Chen Chu's consciousness sank into the secret scripture’s space, a pair of black and gold vertical pupils slowly emerged in the empty white world.

It was the Double Pupil of the Void. It had manifested as a spiritual will, and as Chen Chu's gaze turned to the figure of the Divine Might Dragon Elephant, the entire rune structure magnified before his eyes.

Under this ten-thousand-fold magnification, countless deeper layers of the rune structure information appeared in Chen Chu's eyes, becoming simpler and easier to understand.

So this was the ability to see through illusions and directly perceive the essence.

About an hour later, Yan Ruoyi and Qingqiu Mingyue emerged from the bedroom and called out to Chen Chu, who was absorbed in the secret scripture. "Brother Chu, we’re going to have breakfast first."

"Mhmm." The black and gold vertical pupils in the depths of Chen Chu's eyes slowly disappeared as he put away the secret scripture and stood up.

The fox-eared girl exclaimed, "Chu Batian, you’re studying the secret scripture even when you have such a short time. You work so hard on your cultivation!"

Compared to Chen Chu, Qingqiu Mingyue felt bored and restless after just two hours of cultivation each day, preferring to play with her phone or frolic with her fox.

Yan Ruoyi smiled slightly. "This is why Brother Chu is successful. He never misses an opportunity to strengthen himself, and accumulates bit by bit until he achieves greatness."

Faced with Yan Ruoyi's praise, Chen Chu simply smiled and said nothing. Although there were many reasons for his progress, his consistent effort was undeniable. Since embarking on the path of cultivation, he had been diligently training and fighting, never relaxing for a moment.

Of course, hard work was crucial, but a bit of talent (or an attribute page, or a colossal beast avatar...) was also important.

When the three arrived at the restaurant, they saw Li Daoyi, dressed in a Daoist robe, sitting at the table and eating breakfast while chuckling at his phone.

Chen Chu couldn't help but cough lightly. "Brother Li, mind your image. You're an Innate Awakener; could you avoid looking so lecherous while laughing?"

"Ah... really?"

Noticing the strange looks from Yan Ruoyi and Qingqiu Mingyue, Li Daoyi quickly sat up straight, his expression becoming serious as he restored his usual suave and detached aura, then greeted them smoothly. "Good morning, Sister Ruoyi, and Sister Mingyue."

The fox-eared girl giggled. "Good morning, Li Daoyi. Were you chatting with some beauties just now?"

"I wasn't just chatting; I was discussing life with them," Li Daoyi replied earnestly, trying to maintain his image in front of the young ladies.

As Chen Chu sat down next to Li Daoyi, his gaze sweeping over the sexy images and chat dialogues on Li Daoyi's phone, his expression turned odd.

You mean the life of making babies, right?
