Chapter 792: A Mythical-Level Being Born Daily, Where All Are as Dragons(II)

The core of the Red Sun Body Refinement Art lay in condensing the blood and qi within the human body, transforming it into a force of vitality. The art would then draw upon the power of heaven and earth to temper the body from within.

As a transcendent-level body enhancement art, it naturally included detailed meridian pathways, accurate acupuncture points, and gradual transformation. It bore some similarities to the true martial arts. Or rather, the two paths led to the same destination. After all, the true martial arts of the Blue Planet were also derived from the Ancient Civilization’s system of power.

The first step of the Red Sun Art was to gather one’s blood and qi and condense it into vitality. For Chen Chu, this step was trivial. However, just as he began cultivating, he noticed something was off.

After who-knew-how-many millennia of evolution, the physique of the Blue Planet’s modern humans now differed from those of the ancient human race. Many meridians and acupoints were no longer the same.

In this case, even with a complete cultivation method, Blue Planet humans would be unable to train properly. Worse, they could potentially be driven mad and die from it.

Especially with the vast differences in language and culture across tens of thousands of years—if even a few characters in an art were misunderstood, the consequences could be devastating.

No wonder the ancient emperors had erased all cultivation knowledge from the Void Continent and preserved only the core power systems. Clearly, they had foreseen this issue.

Still, it posed no obstacle for Chen Chu. At his level, his control over his body had long transcended ordinary limitations.

Crack! Crack!

His flesh and blood twisted and shifted under his direction, and he adjusted his meridians with precision. At the same time, he suppressed the destructive power within to avoid disrupting the art's operation.

Fortunately, after his True Battle Demon God Form had reached the mythical level, he fully integrated all traces of prior cultivation arts into his divine body. Only the divine law power remained.

Chen Chu’s true form itself was now the manifestation of arts.

In less than a minute, the internal structure of his body adjusted to resemble that of ancient humans. Then, a strand of blazing vitality emerged from nowhere and began circulating.

Boom!

A faint trace of red sun aura enveloped Chen Chu. He had broken through to the first stage.

His vitality began to circulate rapidly. With each completed cycle, its strength multiplied several-fold, completing sixty revolutions in just a minute.

Boom!

A stronger burst of red sun aura and vitality exploded from within him, his clothing billowing despite the absence of wind. He had reached the second stage.

"The second stage already?! How is that possible?!" Shi Feirou and Shi Feitong stood wide-eyed in shock. The one-armed elder was frozen in disbelief as well.

Chen Chu stopped there. The third stage of the Red Sun Art was slightly different; it required further subtle adjustments to his body.

However, now that he had already started cultivating the art, he had no patience to waste time fine-tuning his physical structure.

Instead of modifying his body to fit the art, it was easier to reshape the art to fit him.

Consume attribute points. Enhance the Red Sun Body Refinement Art to the third stage.

The 56,017 points on his attribute page ticked down to 55,817.

Boom!

𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

A surge of enhancement energy instantly materialized within him and merged with his refined Red Sun vitality. The force exploded, circulating on its own.

Though the attribute page’s enhancement function couldn’t derive new techniques from scratch, it could optimize existing ones, tailoring them to suit Chen Chu perfectly.

The enhancement subtly adjusted his vitality’s pathway. New routes formed beneath his skin and muscles, running smoothly throughout his body.

Boom!

Only a few minutes passed, yet his Red Sun aura swelled more than tenfold. A faint crimson radiance began to emanate from him.

Shi Feirou gasped, voice trembling. "Third stage already?!"

"Amazing..." Shi Feitong clutched her chest, heart pounding and breath ragged. She stared at the seated Chen Chu in disbelief.

It had taken her five whole months, repeated monster attacks, and near-death chases to break through from the second stage to the third. Meanwhile, Chen Chu had done it in two minutes. Two minutes!

Just then, as he lightly sensed the transformation within, Chen Chu issued a mental command once more.

Consume 400 attribute points. Enhance the Red Sun Body Refinement Art to the fourth stage.

His internal vitality burst forth again. This time, it surged through him with power several times more violent than the Third Heavenly Realm’s true power, absorbing all of the energy from his blood and qi in a frenzy and growing stronger.

At the same time, as the Red Sun vitality flowed throughout his body, Chen Chu’s flesh subtly changed—being strengthened and tempered in minute ways.

However, compared to the power of his True Demon God Form, the enhancement from the Red Sun Art was negligible, barely noticeable unless he was paying full attention.

Yet, in the time it took to complete 360 revolutions—one per second—it had already grown over twentyfold.

Boom!

After just six minutes of cultivation, the aura surrounding Chen Chu surged again. In one smooth motion, he broke through to the fourth stage. A layer of crimson flame engulfed him, radiating searing shockwaves of heat.

From initiation to the fourth stage, it had taken Chen Chu only ten minutes—leaving Shi Feirou and the others standing dumbfounded in the distance, numb with disbelief and wondering if they were hallucinating.

“Just like in true martial arts, the fourth stage of body enhancement arts marks a fundamental transformation—the physique begins to evolve, and one steps onto the path of transcendence.” Sensing the subtle changes in his body, Chen Chu once again mentally issued an order with a note of amusement.

Consume 1,400 attribute points. Enhance the Red Sun Body Refinement Art to the fifth and sixth stages.

As an ancient cultivation art, its enhancement costs were naturally higher than standard true martial arts. The fifth stage required 600 points, and the sixth 800, rising steadily.

Boom!

The crimson flames erupted wildly. A wave of scorching, violent energy blasted out from him, compressing the air and sending gales roaring through the entire warehouse.

The shockwave rocked the ground. Standing five meters away, Shi Feirou and the others didn’t dare release their own vitality, afraid they would disrupt Chen Chu. They continued retreating until they reached the doorway.

Amid the howling wind, Shi Feirou’s jet-black hair whipped about, and her white athletic suit flared, accentuating every curve of her figure.

Watching Chen Chu’s meter-high, blood-red flames rise, Shi Feitong swallowed hard. "Sis... he’s already broken through to the fifth stage."

"I know." As she stared at the increasingly immense vitality flames pouring from him, Shi Feirou felt more certain of her guess.

Boom!

The flames around Chen Chu intensified again, shooting several meters high. Behind him, a blood-red sun phantom took form, releasing blistering, unimaginable heat.

The nearly tangible crimson flame of vitality began to crack and melt the cement floor beneath him.

Even though this world was in a decline, where all supernatural forces were suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth, a body refined purely through condensed blood and qi could rival supernatural power once it reached a certain threshold.

"No, Mr. Chen, stop! Our supplies—" the one-armed elder cried out in alarm,

Just before the entire warehouse could catch on fire, the Red Sun phantom vanished. The gale settled, revealing Chen Chu sitting on the ground.

He slowly opened his eyes. He didn’t show the slightest hint of excitement despite having cultivated a powerful art to the sixth stage in less than half an hour.

With his foundation and enough attribute points, even reaching the mythical level in a day wouldn’t be difficult—so long as the cultivation method was refined enough.

After all, he had an endless supply of blood and qi, the most crucial resources for body refinement. His body, on par with a titan-level colossal beast, could endure and experiment with any art at will.

On top of that, he could bypass the time typically needed for cultivation using attribute point enhancements.

"It’s... too weak." Chen Chu released the monstrous force he had been holding in. It instantly devoured the newly formed sixth-stage Red Sun vitality.

Though this cultivation trial, using his own body as the test subject, hadn’t provided much in terms of power, he at least gained significant insights.

The body enhancement art had minimal requirements beyond generating one's blood and qi. Hence, it displayed a real possibility: Everyone on the Blue Planet could become as strong as dragons. Everyone could cultivate.

For now, however, it was just a possibility.

He still needed more of these arts to experiment with—verifying, adjusting, and refining them bit by bit—before he could create a foundational art that was perfectly tailored to modern humans of the Blue Planet.
