Chapter 383: Chapter 383

Meng Chuan repeatedly operated, the black membrane appearing and disappearing.

He gradually came to an understanding:

"The entire activation process, and the process of maintaining the black membrane on my body surface, will consume my physical endurance."

If in a state of liberation, as the size of the body increases, the consumption rate of the black membrane will also increase.

Bones and muscles are complementary in the dynamics of human collaboration.

To improve physical endurance, one must enhance the resilience of the bones and muscles.

Therefore, the status of the gold element essence has been elevated once again.

In addition to assisting him, it helps increase the threshold of [Ultimate Liberation], and allows the black membrane to exist for a longer time.

"In the future, I can pay more attention to it, but all the elemental essences of the Five Elements are useful, none of them should be neglected..."

His bones and muscles are currently undergoing transformation by the earth element essence.

Excluding the influence of hard skills, under the precise perception provided by the Flesh Flower.

Meng Chuan noticed that the physical defense had increased by about fifteen percent compared to before.

Even though he had spent about three million on buying earth attribute True Spirit, the effects were visible, and the money was well spent.

As his overall strength increased, the effectiveness of the essence refined from the Intermediate True Spirit was also decreasing.

Meng Chuan estimated that once he reached Two Limits, the effect on his bones and muscles would be minimal.

Only an upper core or True Spirit could have a significant effect.

Thinking this, Meng Chuan pondered.

The Celestial Demon possessing Lin Yue that he killed earlier, knew his "vest" as a wood attribute upper Celestial Demon.

"Its True Spirit effect seemed far superior to Celestial Demons of the same level, my fist’s penetrating power almost doubled..."

The True Spirit of the upper near peak demon Chen Cang he used before didn’t have such an effect.

He still didn’t know why...

Coming back to his senses, he withdrew all the black membrane and examined the characteristics of the new Limit Breaking:

[Rock Body (Intermediate)]

Function one: Power of Great Brahma Heaven, the body blessed by Great Brahma Heaven, slight enhancement of horizontal training talent;

Function two: Blessing of Great Brahma Heaven, the body protected by Great Brahma Heaven, some enhancement of the ability to sense evil thoughts;

Function three: Oath of Great Brahma Heaven, the body protected by the oath of Great Brahma Heaven, receives a slight exemption from spiritual damage invasion.

After reading the effects, Meng Chuan was delighted.

Not only was it not the backfire useless effect he was most worried about.

But all three were very useful, truly a treatment akin to a "son of Great Brahma Heaven" level...

The first effect, naturally, needs no further explanation.

Effects related to talent, the more the better.

The latter two surprised Meng Chuan the most.

In terms of defense, what he lacked most was not physical protection.

But the enhancement in [Perception].

Some martial artists specializing in [Spiritual] or intangible Celestial Demons were adept at hiding their evil thoughts.

Without strong perceptual methods, they couldn’t be discovered, naturally leading to a passive state.

The appearance of the Blessing of Great Brahma Heaven precisely made up for this.

Secondly, it was the defense against spiritual damage methods.

Although he had the protection of his Tao Heart and Martial Arts Will, such attacks were unpredictable and varied.

The related defense methods, of course, the more, the better.

"Not long ago, during the battle to destroy the new base of the Demon Summoning Hall.

The last priest with five sublimations came up with a brilliant idea, using a psychic attack method that was quite difficult to defend against by revealing his brain.

In the future, collecting more traits of this kind is advisable, to prevent unforeseeable dangers."

However, traits related to mental defense are indeed rare.

Meng Chuan had been practicing hard skills for over two years.

The [Oath of Great Brahma Heaven] was his first encounter with a mental defense effect.

After examining the new trait, Meng Chuan extinguished the esoteric incense by the pool, and his mind fell into deep thought once again...

Everything else seemed fine, just this "oath" part...

Why did it look a bit creepy...

Moreover, the description of the Rock Body’s effect was too similar to the [Four-Faced Buddha] of the Esoteric Sect known as Great Brahma Heaven.

A big hand swung, bestowing himself with three blessing states.

First blessing, then protection, finally sticking to oneself with an oath, a faithful minister indeed...

However, Meng Chuan carefully contemplated, was this "oath" legitimate?

"In my body... won’t there be another permanent guest?"

He suddenly recalled that every time he broke through a Dharma practice of the Esoteric Sect, that willpower that surrounded him.

Could it be that it was Great Brahma Heaven or something like its avatar...

But soon, Meng Chuan dismissed this idea.

After a brief exposure to Buddhist Sect culture, he also learned a little about Esoteric Sect culture.

In legend, Great Brahma Heaven is the [Celestial King of the Upper Realm] among the Twelve Celestial Kings of the Esoteric Sect.

Four-faced, four-armed, holding Esoteric Sect scriptures, standing on a lotus platform.

It represents creation and origin, worshiped by followers of the Esoteric Sect as a deity for protecting true law and enlightening wisdom, with considerable prestige.

Therefore, Meng Chuan thought it was unlikely to be so outrageous.

A grand god taking a stroll with nothing better to do and peeping at his training just didn’t make sense...

Moreover... is there really a god or Buddha in this world?

If there were, why would they allow Celestial Demons to wreak havoc in the human world?

Shaking his head, Meng Chuan stopped overthinking.

Even if they exist, so what.

Focusing on practicing martial arts, isn’t it more appealing?

A Seven-Limit Great Saint can act with power greater than a nuclear explosion.

To advance further to achieve Eight Limits, with unimaginable power.

As long as I am willing to put in the effort, to rival gods or even surpass them in the future is not an illusion.

Leaping out from beside the pool, Meng Chuan continued to tidy up the ritual items placed in the courtyard.

Simultaneously, he thought to himself:

"However... this time’s Limit Breaking, the other party seemed absent."

During today’s Limit Breaking, he didn’t feel that presence arriving.

Gazing at the Shakyamuni statue hanging on the wall inside the room...

Meng Chuan roughly guessed what was going on...

Although the two are not from the same system.

If we only consider the fruit position of Buddhism, the statue on the wall is at the top of the top, incomparable to any Buddha.

If that thought is truly from the original Buddha of Great Brahma Heaven, would it not dare to come here...

Coming back to his senses, Meng Chuan recently hasn’t planned to practice the hard skills of the Esoteric Sect.

He thought for a moment and summoned a flame with one hand.

Instantly, he turned the Esoteric scripture phonetic edition worth twenty-eight yuan and eighty cents into ashes.

Then, Meng Chuan suddenly had a brainwave and thought:

The Demon Path disciples of the "Demon Summoning Hall", each holding a small beast statue with effects related to spirit and faith.

Therefore, the so-called "Great Brahma Heaven", he boldly speculated.

Could it be a statue deep within a temple in the Western Regions, heavily supported by the beliefs of its followers, rather than an immortal god or Buddha...

It’s nourished by faith, or spiritual power.

Day after day, year after year, under the gathering of massive spiritual power, some indescribable changes occur.

Ultimately... it developed spirituality and "came alive"...

Meng Chuan pondered deeply, increasingly convinced this speculation was reasonable.

Otherwise... those concept-type Celestial Demons hidden in the shadows, using statues, altars, and such to collect "faith" as methods...

Who did they learn from...

As the martial arts practice advanced, and the path of limit breaking became longer.

Meng Chuan felt that a corner of the world’s truth had already been faintly revealed...

Not wanting to dwell on these things, just practicing martial arts was enough.

All of it, overwhelming with power!

After carefully introspecting and finding no abnormalities.

Meng Chuan shifted his heart spirit to the Doma Iron Crotch limit he had previously broken, focusing on the "Rock Pivot".

Function One: Pillar of Great Brahma Heaven...

Function Two: Resonance with Rock...

Function Three: When activating with "Rock Body", "Arm of Rock", "Rock Leg" simultaneously, it forms the four-phase geomantic vein effect (activated).

In the blink of an eye, the function three description slowly disappeared and then reappeared.

Function Three: Four-phase geomantic veins, geospatial energy flow, capture the earth vein energy upon oneself.

Meng Chuan nodded secretly, his previous guess was correct.

The black membrane on the body surface was not from the limit breaking of the Doma Iron Body, but from the effect of the "four-phase geomantic veins".

Whether it’s called armored color domineering, or "black membrane", these are just adjectives he came up with. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁

Their true origin is the so-called earth vein energy.

He had already felt its power before, rightfully deserving the full set effect of the Doma family bucket.

Powerful, no need for more words.

As the night deepened, Meng Chuan introspected once more, and went to sleep excitedly.

"The Treasure Appearance Golden Venerable Skill will be mastered in a few more days, and the body’s defense will rise again.

At that time, entering the Demon Nest will be truly fearless.

Encountering an upper-rank Celestial Demon, whether I can defeat it or not, at least I’ll be in an advantageous position not to die."

To be alive, is to have the ability to output.

This trial’s destination is the newly emerged first-level Demon Nest outside Dengzhou City.

First-level, referring to the intensity level of demonic Qi within it.

The strongest inside will not have power surpassing the upper-rank Celestial Demon.

It’s been tested by professional methods of the Academy of Sciences, relating to the safety of the top tier youth martial artists of Great Chu, absolutely no mistakes.

"I hope this round can straight up earn all the resources needed for the Second Limit..."

Meng Chuan was just "making a wish", with the Second Limit needing the condensation of martial arts star sea within the body.

Apart from regularly cultivating Qi Blood, wanting to continuously practice under the support of external resources.

The amount consumed is simply enormous.

The Three-Limit Master is not so easy to break through.

Otherwise, Master Lu wouldn’t have been stuck at the Second Limit for so long, still some distance from the Third Limit.

Reflecting upon this, Meng Chuan was somewhat emotional.

Unknowingly, his martial arts level has approached Master Lu’s.

Especially in martial reasoning, gradually showing a tendency to catch up.

From the perspective of the Five Elements as a whole, even surpassing.

The only lacking part is the amount of Qi Blood and the difference in martial arts momentum of the Second Limit.

Meng Chuan estimated that the closing of this gap.

Will be by next year...

A week later, time flew like a horse passing by, suddenly and gone.

During this period, aside from practicing martial arts, Meng Chuan adjusted his leisure time.

Occasionally, he would also watch the current Supernova Tournament.

Compared to the first tournament he participated in, where heroes gathered and powers converged.

The second tournament was much less prominent.

Zong Ping also participated but was eliminated after two rounds.

Having just entered the Seven Checkpoints, in the first tournament when he participated, it would surely have been on the level of a one-round tour...

This is due to the rewards of the first tournament being not as bountiful now.

Many students with strength and background, unwilling to waste time on martial arts practice.

Lately, Meng Chuan also occasionally paid attention to various martial arts competitions in Great Chu.

Thinking about whether there are suitable competitions to participate in after his Second Limit break to fill the void of martial arts resources.

Currently, the top contests held long-term domestically.

Only the Tianshan Martial Arts Meeting and the River Gathering.

Meng Chuan doesn’t need to consider the latter in the short term.

The River Gathering is the largest domestic competition, the top stage for the struggle between the rich and the Celestial Kings.

The champion of the last competition was the principal of United University, "Martial Mourning Peak · Sui Chunqiu", recognized as the number one under the Great Saint in Great Chu.
