Chapter 169 Awakening of talent, a two-layer world
Boom!
As the dragon's blood entered his body, the familiar violent force exploded in Chen Chu's body.
However, compared to the discomfort when he broke through the fourth heaven before, the high-level dragon essence and blood this time did much less damage to his body. It should be all due to the 'dragon'.
At this moment, as Chen Chu's extremely pure energy appeared out of thin air, the dragon elephant's true power in his dantian surged out and enveloped the dragon's essence and blood.
Under the guidance of that force, True Power opens up new routes in the body, involving more subtle meridians, forming an operation map with stronger effects and more subtle coverage.
Wherever the true power passed, traces of purified dragon blood essence blended into Chen Chu's flesh, bones, and the dragon scale lines on the body gradually became clearer.
At the same time, the extremely pure power was divided into two. When half of it was integrated into the true power and continuously circulated to refine the dragon's blood, the other half poured into Chen Chu's sea of consciousness.
In an instant, Chen Chu's consciousness was shaken, and he was pulled by the invisible force and merged with the phantom of the dragon elephant in the sea of consciousness.
Roar!
On the barren and desolate land, a dragon elephant as big as a mountain roared up to the sky, with a will that shook the heaven and earth and shattered the sky.
As he transformed into a dragon and elephant and ran, a domineering aura different from the mind and spiritual power filled Chen Chu's sea of consciousness, and his will gradually became real.
Hurrah!
With the breakthrough in his technique, Chen Chu's breathing gradually became louder and heavier, and the wind even roared between his breaths, like a sleeping giant beast.
In him, the might of a dragon is full of domineering, and the power of a violent elephant is getting stronger and stronger...
Half an hour later, Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes. In the black eyes as bright as stars, a pair of golden vertical pupils exuded terrifying pressure.
Those golden vertical pupils are like statues of gods erected in temples, cold and majestic, overlooking all living beings.
This time Chen Chu did not directly close his eyes, but turned his head slightly to look around.
At this time, the world in his eyes has become two layers. The first layer is the normal picture seen by ordinary naked eyes, with the air flowing slightly and floating dust.
The other layer of the world is a little blurry, and there are some faint cracks in the surrounding space from time to time, and then healed in the blink of an eye.
It was like the world he was in was a bottle that was about to break, which was inexplicably scary.
But soon, as the golden vertical pupils in Chen Chu's eyes gradually disappeared, the terrifying scene of the surrounding space being shattered also gradually disappeared.
Phew!
Chen Chu exhaled, with thoughtful eyes, "Are these strange eyes due to the dragon-elephant body absorbing the mutation of high-level dragon blood? Or is it the influence of my constantly evolving physique?"
“If it’s a skill, the introduction of the Dragon Elephant Body doesn’t seem to have heard of anyone who has awakened any other talents besides the true martial attributes after practicing it.”
“To put it this way, it should be related to my evolving physical body, or a combination of both…”
With the feedback from the clone, the strength of the physical body continued to increase, and Chen Chu gradually discovered the difference between his strengthening and normal Zhenwu practitioners.
The physical strength of other cultivators is similar to the process of continuous tempering with true power and transformation towards true martial arts under the baptism of the energy of heaven and earth.
Similar to cast iron.
But Chen Chu's enhancement is biological evolution. Each time the evolutionary energy fed back by the clone makes his body evolve, the cells continue to divide, and the density becomes more and more terrifying as it continues to shrink.
Coupled with true martial arts training and the absorption of high-level dragon blood, talents similar to those of behemoths were gradually born.
Of course, these are Chen Chu’s speculations.
And this double-pupil talent is still in the initial state of awakening and has not yet been fully formed.
Putting this question behind him, Chen Chu only then focused on his body, feeling the powerful gaze that was about six times thicker.
“It is the late stage of the Fourth Heaven, and it has just entered the late stage. Sure enough, at the later stage, simply strengthening the skills can no longer break through the realm of cultivation.”
This time he broke through the fifth level of the dragon-elephant hegemonic body. Chen Chu's cultivation realm did not break through to the fifth level in one go like before.
As for the reason, when strengthening the breakthrough technique, half of the 'attribute energy' is consumed in the transformation and concentration of the power of will.
When the remaining half of the energy is used to strengthen the true power, the converted energy is not enough to expand the true power to the limit of the fourth heaven, let alone break through the fifth heaven in one go.
In other words, Chen Chu's "gongfa" realm has now reached the fifth level of heaven, but his cultivation level, that is, the amount of true power, is insufficient and he is in the late stage of the fourth level of heaven.
The next step is to concentrate on absorbing and refining the energy of heaven and earth, and you will soon be able to cross the fifth level without any bottlenecks.
And because the skill has already broken through the fifth level, his subsequent practice speed will be several times that of before. As long as he accumulates the amount, he can break through the fifth level.
If he exchanges it for absorbing energy crystals and other resources to increase his real power, he will be able to break through to the fifth level faster, because the only difference is 'energy'.
Other than this, another way is to continue to strengthen the sixth level of the dragon-elephant body, and directly break through the fifth level when breaking through the level of skills.
In fact, Chen Chu had already been mentally prepared for this result. He had noticed this problem when he was maximizing the low-level Dragon Elephant Skill.
When consuming attribute points to strengthen a skill, what is strengthened is the level of the skill. The cultivation realm, that is, the increase in true power, is incidental to the breakthrough of the skill.
It’s just that the real power of the third level before was very weak, and it was insignificant compared to the strengthening of the skills. Therefore, when one level of skills is strengthened, one can break through the first level.
At the fourth level, the real power span of each level increases tenfold, and a breakthrough of the power of will is also required.
In this case, the fourth level of heavenly queen, the 'life energy' divided into two is simply unable to push the skills and cultivation realm to break through at the same time.
However, although the cultivation level has only been promoted to the late stage of the fourth heaven, because the skill level has reached the fifth level, the true power containing the power of the true dragon has been greatly improved.
And because his body has been strengthened by 'Dragon Power', the dragon scale patterns emerging on his body make his defense more terrifying, and his strength more powerful and domineering.
Besides...Chen Chu stretched out his right hand and pressed forward slightly.
Accompanied by faint fluctuations in real power, the ground in front of him shook silently, and a palm print one inch deep and several meters in diameter appeared.
Turning the imaginary into reality, the power of will!
As the power of will is condensed and can interfere with matter as a support, Chen Chu's true power can be extended out of thin air without the help of weapons, and can be unleashed to attack.
However, the newly condensed Dragon Elephant's will is very weak, and the initial combination of will and true power is actually not of much help to combat power. It can only be used as an introduction to the crystallization of true power when breaking through the fifth heaven.
The true power of the power of will will not be initially revealed until it continues to grow and finally merges with the true power of the whole body to break through the six heavens and ignite the flames of true power, bursting out with terrifying power.
Overall, this breakthrough has greatly enhanced Chen Chu's combat power. As for how strong it is, you need to find someone to test it to know.
“Unfortunately, this is a school base. If the training room is damaged, you will have to pay for it.” Chen Chu glanced at the wall of the training room and suppressed the urge to give it a try.
Then Chen Chu took a deep breath, and the voice of his thoughts rang in his mind: "Consume 50 attribute points to strengthen the hidden magic."
When he broke through the fourth heaven and greatly strengthened his physical body, the hidden mystical method that he just started could no longer completely contain his aura.
This is also the reason why Li Hao feels strongly in danger.
Now that he has broken through the fifth level of Dragon Elephant Dominance in one breath, Chen Chu's breath is leaking out, and the terrifying pressure on Chen Chu's body is like that of a giant beast, which almost makes the surrounding air burst.
Anyone who is not blind in this situation will know that his cultivation level has been greatly improved, and the degree of improvement is exaggerated.
But he had only broken through the fourth heaven for half a month, so for some unnecessary trouble, he also prepared for the next operation into the Yunwu Mountains.
It is imperative to strengthen the hidden mystical method.
And the talent he is showing now is already dazzling enough.
Although he will hunt more advanced mutant beasts next, and the combat power he displays will be even more terrifying, there are some things that can be done but not said.
It would be better to let those people figure it out on their own.
As Chen Chu's voice fell, the blood runes that had been integrated into his chest emerged, and then collapsed into an invisible vortex with a bang.
As the whirlpool swallowed Chen Chu's blood and spirit, three more condensed and perfect qi and blood runes slowly condensed.
When three small-level Hidden God runes merged into Chen Chu's shoulders and abdomen, forming a stable triangle, a powerful invisible wave covered his whole body.
In an instant, the terrifying oppressive feeling on Chen Chu's body, like that of a giant beast, disappeared.
…
“Roasted pig’s trotters, roasted super-large mutated pig’s trotters, one can be chewed for a whole day…”
“Come, come, come, the delicious and spicy green-scaled rabbit meat is on sale. It doesn’t cost 9.9 or 6.6 for a hundred skewers. You only need 2 points to contribute and you can eat it to your heart’s content.”
“Students, here is the red barbecued bear paw that I have secretly made for ten years. The meat is delicious and soft. After grilling, it is not only spicy and delicious, but also has the green aroma of golden sandalwood. It is so refreshing.”
“There is a huge sale on bear paws right now. One that is bigger than a pot lid only costs 3 points. It is guaranteed that you will be addicted after eating it, and you can also drink with your brothers all night long..."
“Damn, ten years ago you were still playing in the mud, and your propaganda was even more exaggerated than mine.”
“My ancestral tradition is not good, and just for a hundred skewers of rabbit meat, it actually requires two points of contribution. Don’t you think it’s a bit of a trap?”
“A first-level mutated green-scaled rabbit weighs almost five hundred kilograms and can produce three hundred kilograms of meat, which is enough for you to make a thousand skewers, profiteer.”
“Go away, my rabbit meat is as big as a fist, one bunch weighs a pound, plus my labor and other costs, a hundred bunches of 2-point contribution is very cheap, just make hard money.”
The mountainside behind the Wugao Base is brightly lit at night, and many second- and third-level graduates who have finished their work during the day set up stalls there.
Selling mutated beast meat for barbecue, repairing and refining armors, and a few stalls that went out to collect ordinary resources, but did not exchange them for the school but traded them privately.
These ordinary resources can only be exchanged to the school at a 20% discount price, but if they are sold on-site to students who don’t want to go out and take risks, they can make a little more money by trading them at a 10% discount.
Of course, don’t think the school is evil. Recovering those resources requires special methods and environmental preservation, and some of them that no one here needs need to be transported back.
These all have costs.
Beside the busy night market stalls, Chen Chu looked at this scene in a daze.
Xia Youhui chuckled and said, "How about it, Ah Chu, you didn't expect it."
“I really didn’t expect it.” Chen Chu shook his head.
After breaking through, he was just about to finish his meal when Xia Youhui sent a message asking him to come to the back mountain. Then he saw this scene, and the painting style was completely messy.
Isn’t this a strange beast battlefield full of tense and killing atmosphere?
“Hey, so I’m going to show you around today. Come on, I’m treating you today. Let’s go over and find a seat to sit down and wait for Luo Fei and the others.”
Chen Chu shook his head: "Forget it, your contribution is to refine the extraordinary battle shield. I will do this today."
"Okay, let's eat big today." Xia Youhui nodded and did not argue with Chen Chu.
After all, this guy earned several hundred contribution points today, which is equivalent to what many Third Heaven students earn after working for several months. Soon the two of them found a big table to sit down, and then Xia Youhui shouted familiarly: "Boss, one hundred skewers of rabbit meat, and one bear's paw over there."
“By the way, it’s still the old rule that fruit wine is free, right?”
“Yes, the fruit wine is free.”
“Senior over there, grill a hundred skewers of the hind legs of the Snow Jade Beast.”
“Haole, wait a moment.”
Chen Chu's eyes were strange: "Lao Xia, I see that you are so skilled. Do you come here often?"
Xia Youhui smiled and said: "No, Li Meng and I have been here twice. Liu Feng and the others only know how to practice all day long, which is too boring."
“And Achu, don’t underestimate this place. Many of the bosses here are experienced.”
“In addition to those guys who don’t like to fight and are more cautious, there are also some fourth-level old people who have just returned from the mountains.”
Chen Chu suddenly looked a little strange: "They are relaxing in this way."
Xia Youhui smiled and nodded: "Yes, relax and make some money at the same time, and many of the barbecues they have are without capital."
“Think about it, those mutated beasts are stained for only ten to twenty meters. Find a place to break open the scales before bringing them back. If you cut them off for a hundred or two hundred pounds, you won’t be able to see them at all.”
“Although a lot of these barbecues only contribute two or three points, the accumulation is still a lot in a year, and it is a no-cost business.”
Chen Chu sighed: "They are all talents!"
“Hey! These are just ordinary ones, I heard there are many twists and turns...”
Next, Xia Youhui told Chen Chu a lot of the news he had found out during this period.
For example, some senior students who practice agility and breath-condensing techniques enter the mountains, but they do not hunt high-level mutant beasts, but seek information.
For example, where there are mutant beasts above level 5, where there are dangerous areas that are suspected of having resources, where the space magnetic field is distorted, there may be treasures of heaven and earth, etc.
They will then sell the information at a reasonable price.
These people are very well-informed and have almost all contacts with many Wuhan students in the surrounding area, forming a very large network of contacts.
While the two were talking, Li Meng and several other guys came over, followed by Luo Fei.
Because everyone in the base was dressed very casually, including Luo Fei, who only wore a pair of slim-fitting trousers and a short-sleeved T-shirt, revealing her arms as white as ivory.
The girl came over and sat on the left side of Chen Chu.
As the night wind blew, Chen Chu suddenly smelled the faint fragrance of shampoo coming from beside him.
As his physical body became stronger, Chen Chu's five senses had actually become very terrifying.
In the forest, you can hear the sound of mosquitoes flying hundreds of meters away, your eyes can clearly see insects several kilometers away without any obstruction, and your nose is even more sensitive.
In this case, he would usually suppress his five senses and only let go of his spiritual perception, otherwise he would feel very uncomfortable.
Chen Chu glanced at Li Meng, Yuan Chenghuang and the others, and asked, "Lao Xia, didn't you call me Li Hao?"
Xia Youhui shook his head: "I sent him a message, but he said he couldn't come. In the afternoon, he got the three bottles of the blood essence of the Blood-armored Beast King from the logistics department and went directly to the mountain."
“Holy shit, Li Hao is too hard-working.” Liu Feng couldn’t help but curse.
Bai Mu shrugged: "Obviously he was also stimulated by Chen Chu. After all, he is the second in the freshman class, and now he can't even defeat the mutant beast that Chen Chu crushed."
Yuan Chenghuang agreed: "It is true that this guy Chen Chu is getting more and more perverted. It is a problem if he is not stimulated."
“You can’t blame me. I’ve been able to achieve breakthroughs with practice, and there’s nothing I can do about it.” Chen Chu shook his head.
“Fuck!” Xia Youhui and others gave Chen Chu the **** in unison.
Poof! Luo Fei couldn't help but laugh. She liked to see others embarrassed or shocked because of Chen Chu.
At this time, from behind the barbecue stall not far away, the boss came over with a big iron plate in his arms and shouted: "Here you go, brothers, your spicy green-scaled rabbit meat skewers."
“…This is barbecue!” Liu Feng was a little confused when he looked at the ‘barbeque skewers’ in front of him, which were skewered with half-meter-long steel bars, with five large pieces of fist-sized rabbit meat on each skewer.
A hundred skewers were piled on the table, almost forming a big pile.
The burly second-year high school boss said proudly: "We are cultivators, so naturally it is more enjoyable to eat large pieces of meat and drink wine. Brothers, eat slowly, and I will continue my work."
At this time, Chen Chu waved his hand: "Eat, I'm treating you today, you're welcome."
"eat."
After a while, bear paws that were bigger than the pot lid were also roasted, and everyone drank the fruit wine and ate it. Not to mention that it tasted really good.
By the time everyone was full and full, it was almost midnight, and they had eaten almost 10 cents.
In the corridor of the dormitory, a young man leaned against the door of Chen Chu's dormitory with his arms folded. When he saw Chen Chu coming back, the young man's eyes lit up and he said enthusiastically.
“Brother Chen, let me meet you. My name is Li Fei, and I am in the fifth grade of the second grade.” This cultivator is very familiar with me and introduces himself when we meet.
"Hello, Senior Li. Senior, are you waiting for me here for something?" Chen Chu was a little surprised.
He seems to have never seen this person named Li Fei.
Li Fei chuckled and said, "Yes, I do have something to ask you, or I have a deal to discuss with Brother Chen. I would like to ask if you are interested?"
Chen Chu narrowed his eyes: "Trading, news about high-level mutant beasts?"
“As expected of Junior Brother Chen, he is smart.”
Li Fei clapped his hands and said enthusiastically: "This time I found traces of a late-level fifth-level mutant beast in the middle of the Yunwu Mountains, and it is suspected to be a twisted space zone."
Chen Chu paused for a moment, but he didn't expect that Xia Youhui had just mentioned that there was such a group of people, and now one of them came to him.
“Senior Li, do you think I, a freshman in the ‘early stage’ of the fourth level, can kill a mutant beast in the late fifth level?”
“Haha... Junior Brother Chen, stop joking.”
Li Fei said with a smile: "The news that you killed an early-level fifth-level mutant beast with a trace of king-level bloodline has spread throughout the base. Everyone knows that your combat power is amazing, Senior Brother Chen."
“It’s spread all over the place!” Chen Chu raised his eyebrows.
Even though I knew that the news could not be kept secret for long, there was still something wrong that it had only spread in half a day. It seemed that someone was helping to spread the news.
At this time, Li Fei asked: "How are you, junior? Are you interested in this news?"
Chen Chu thought slightly: "How much is the price?"
An ordinary late-level fifth-level mutated beast is nothing, but the resources that seem to exist are valuable.
Li Fei stretched out a palm: "Fifty points of contribution!"
“Senior, why don’t you go and grab it? A late-level five mutant beast is worth at most 150 contribution points, and it is very dangerous when hunting.”
“There are resources there.”
“But you also said that you suspect you have resources.”
The two of them then engaged in a round of bargaining.
But no matter how Chen Chu raised the issue, Li Fei refused to reduce the price even if he gave 50 points of contribution.
Said that it was also dangerous for him to go deep into the Yunwu Mountains. In order to find out this information, he went through a lot and stayed awake for a week...
But Chen Chu is not stupid either. Who knows how this guy found that mutated creature.
Finally, Chen Chu suggested: "Senior, this is the first time we've met, and I don't know whether what you said is true or not. How about this, I'll give you a 20-point deposit first."
“If I find that level five mutant beast and kill it, or if I find that twisted space zone and gain something, I can come back and pay the remaining 30 points.”
“Of course, if there is a problem with your news, don’t blame me for being rude.” Chen Chu’s eyes turned slightly cold as he spoke.
This senior did not deliberately restrain his aura, and the fluctuations he exuded were around the late stage of the Fourth Heaven.
However, Chen Chu felt that his aura was a bit obscure. His true realm should be at the peak of the Fourth Heaven, and he was among the most talented in the second grade.
But if the other party dares to lie to him, then he must be prepared not to enter the Yunwu Mountains for the rest of his life.
Li Fei nodded: "Okay, just treat me as your friend and pay 20 points as a deposit first. As for the authenticity of the news, I can guarantee that there will be no problem."
“If I didn’t like fighting and killing, and I couldn’t defeat the late-level five mutant beast, I would have gone in to search for resources myself.”
Then Li Fei reminded: "But junior fellow student, we all will settle the score as brothers."
"I will only keep this news for one week. If you don't take action after one week, I will sell it to someone else. Otherwise, something may happen over time."
This so-called accident was, of course, that the mutated beast was discovered by other cultivators.
"Can."
Chen Chu nodded, and then the two parties completed the transfer through the smart watch.
Li Fei then transmitted to him information about the late-level fifth-level mutated beast, the direction, coordinates, and surrounding reference objects of the distorted space.
After watching Li Fei leave, Chen Chu took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xia Youhui, asking him if he knew Li Fei and what his credibility was.
As a gossip player, Lao Xia is very good at gossiping.
Xia Youhui soon responded to the message and confirmed that this guy named Li Fei was a well-known information hunter at Nantian Wugao Base and had a good reputation in the circle.
Until then, Chen Chu believed 60% of the news given by Li Fei.
Today’s two chapters are worth ten thousand words. We will continue tomorrow. Brothers, please remember to vote for us.
