This was a tranquil cosmic expanse, devoid of sound, vegetation, mountains, or rivers. Only shattered stellar remains could be found, a scene of desolation.
Chu Feng did not enter any life-bearing planet. Instead, he chose a desolate stretch of the cosmic void.
Darkness, silence, and cold were the eternal themes of the cosmos. Chu Feng sat cross-legged, no longer needing air; at his current level, mere energy sufficed for survival.
At this moment, he was refining his physical body, preparing to eliminate its very last imperfection!
After a century in the foreign realm, his spirit had long since reached the limit of the Golden Body level, as strong as it could possibly be. Had he not worried that his physical body couldn't withstand it and would be incinerated, he would have already entered the Sub-Saint realm without an issue.
In fact, even now, if he were to activate his Human King physique to revive its blue blood, he could still enter the Sub-Saint realm ahead of time.
But that would make it imperfect. After all, his true physical body still had flaws and had not yet reached this level. He had deeply realized the physical body's shortcomings during his decisive battle with Little Saint Luo Yong in the Great Dream Pure Land.
The Robbery Induction Breathing Technique was balanced and harmonious. It was speculated that it could only unleash its full potential in the Yang Realm. Nevertheless, it had always been the fundamental reason for Chu Feng's rise.
At this moment, his Yang energy was abundant. Even though the general environment was cold, and he absorbed little Yang energy on a constant basis, his cultivation was more intense than ever before.
Chu Feng's physical body began to glow, gradually resembling a small sun. Yang energy and other energies enveloped his entire body, continuously cleansing his flesh, blood, and internal organs, healing his injuries.
Furthermore, every inch of his physical body was being refined, nourished, and made more resilient.
This was because he was consuming Six Paths Reincarnation Pills, one after another. These pills were specifically prepared for individuals at the Golden Body level, and each cost tens of billions of cosmic coins, making them terrifyingly expensive.
Apart from evolvers from major sects, other Golden Body level rogue cultivators found it extremely difficult to obtain even one. Yet now, he was eating them like candy, continuously chewing and swallowing.
Divine light, like sharp swords, burst forth from Chu Feng's skin, truly terrifying. The dense golden energy made him gradually appear sacred and dazzling as he practiced the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique.
"Robbery Induction... robbing heavenly secrets, robbing the profound meanings of order, robbing the very source of the Grand Dao..." Chu Feng murmured to himself, gaining a clearer understanding in his heart.
Evolution was inherently like sailing against the current. The Robbery Induction Breathing Technique, taking the initiative in adversity and aiming directly at the essence, made him increasingly sense the unfathomable depth of this technique.
Unfortunately, in the Netherworld, it always seemed to be veiled by a thin gauze, preventing some of its key principles from manifesting.
Because it was too profound and too powerful, its requirements for cultivators were exceedingly high. Chu Feng vaguely felt that he had not done well enough in some aspects; for example, his past evolution had been too "wild," lacking something.
"Can it truly only unleash its extraordinary brilliance after entering the Yang Realm?"
He murmured to himself, but soon calmed his mind. It was not appropriate to ponder too much at this moment. He once again began to meditate, activating the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique. Instantly, all kinds of cosmic energies converged, from starlight to the dark energy pervading the cosmos.
Combined with the Six Paths Reincarnation Pills he had consumed, colorful light erupted around Chu Feng, swirling around his body. From his mouth and nose, it was as if dragon-serpents were moving in and out, inhaling and exhaling the order of heaven and earth.
Then, outside his body, a resonant hum could be heard. It was a series of divine chains of order, vaguely appearing and attempting to connect with his physical body.
This was a necessary step to become a Sub-Saint: to communicate and merge with the order of heaven and earth. At that stage, the energy wielded would not only be one's own but also partial, incomplete profound meanings of the heavens and earth.
When that moment truly arrived, words would become law, and it would be incredibly easy to obliterate someone using the power of the vast heavens and earth!
Chu Feng successively swallowed dozens of Six Paths Reincarnation Pills. If other cultivators were present, they would be dumbfounded and their scalps would tingle, as this defied all logic.
For an ordinary Golden Body level expert, one pill would be enough. Consuming several at once would likely lead to an explosion, utterly unbearable.
Yet now, he resembled a deity. His skin was golden, and even his internal organs and bones seemed forged from gold, exceptionally radiant. Coupled with the energy surging from other parts of the universe, forming colorful light around his body, he became increasingly sacred and powerful.
Boom! A surge of powerful vital energy churned within his body, rapidly sweeping through every inch of his flesh. His entire aura transformed. It was forcibly eradicating the last imperfections, pushing him to the absolute peak of strength.
Finally, Chu Feng felt it was almost complete.
Gritting his teeth, he began consuming Sub-Saint-level medicinal herbs!
In recent days, he hadn't gained much else, except for an abundance of evolution resources. Someone was even willing to accept an ancient Sub-Saint medicinal herb as payment to host a dinner for him.
Rumbles! Within Chu Feng's body, thunder roared. Outside his body, divine chains of order trembled, connecting with his body surface. His energy aura surged explosively!
"Just a little more!" Chu Feng did not rush to break through. Instead, he began to nourish and refine his physical body once more.
A long time later, his physical body grew even stronger, dazzling golden, and enveloped in colorful light. This was the Golden Body level reaching its pinnacle, ready to break through and overcome this threshold at any moment.
However, Chu Feng still felt something was amiss, dissatisfied. He wanted to be stronger. His previous cultivation path had been too unconventional, leaving certain flaws that he now wished to mend.
"Earth has a true dragon's lair, and as a grandmaster of natural arrays, I can definitely enter it," he thought. "I can also use array methods there, drawing on the mountains and the dragon's lair, to achieve a sublimation of life, a great nirvana, and rapid breakthrough."
However, Chu Feng felt it would be a waste to go now. Such a place could only be utilized once, and since he could solve the problem on his own now, it was not advisable to rashly disturb the true dragon's lair.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Chu Feng acted, summoning various divine magnetic stones from his person. All were engraved with symbols, arranged around him, forming a deliberate setup.
In an instant, the surrounding cosmic energy became several times denser. He then further refined it, until it surged to more than ten times its original intensity, and even the order runes became ten times more concentrated.
Simultaneously, he once again consumed an ancient Sub-Saint-level medicinal herb. His body felt as if it were about to explode!
It should be noted that he wasn't attempting to break into the Sub-Saint realm. He was still stubbornly and determinedly refining his physical body at the Golden Body level.
"If I'm going to do it, I'll do it best. I don't want an ordinary Sub-Saint status," he declared. "Instead, I want to be able to obliterate those veteran Sub-Saints as soon as I enter this realm. No matter how many years you've cultivated or how many eons you've evolved, I'll still kill you!"
Chu Feng's conviction was firm. He didn't want to be hunted down and suppressed by a group of old Sub-Saints at the Great Perfection stage, simply because he was newly entered and in the initial phase of the Sub-Saint realm.
After two days and two nights, Chu Feng felt his Golden Body cracking, on the verge of shattering. But the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique caused a resonant hum, unleashing immense vital energy and allowing him to touch many order runes in the void.
"Hmm? It works!" Chu Feng was surprised and delighted.
Using his vital energy to touch those orders and imprint their essence, he suppressed his realm, forcibly undergoing another transformation and refinement at the Golden Body level. This made him sense a terrifying aura.
Bang, bang, bang! His body shook violently. His bones, internal organs, and other parts all cracked open. It was more terrifying than enduring a great battle.
Relying on the Robbery Induction Breathing Technique and with an ancient medicinal herb in his mouth, he rapidly recovered at the first opportunity, his vital energy surging boundlessly.
"My physical body is flawless; the last hidden dangers have long been resolved. No flaws remain; it is perfect and resilient. I can now become a Sub-Saint!"
In fact, his physical body had long been more than just resilient and flawless. He had already surpassed the standard a day and a night ago. Now, he was forcibly enhancing his physical body, unable to suppress it any longer.
Boom! Chu Feng unleashed himself, his physical body humming and radiating crystalline brilliance, shaking violently, almost collapsing the cosmic void. A powerful aura erupted as he made his final push to break through. This was akin to a fish leaping into the nine heavens!
With a hum, his body and the cosmic void trembled violently together, as dazzling light of order shot forth.
A powerful aura spread across the sky and earth, seemingly gathering from across the universe. Various order symbols intertwined, like endless heavenly scriptures shining in this place, before all rushing into Chu Feng's body.
And in an instant, that powerful aura erupted from within Chu Feng again, engulfing this cosmic space.
This was order, merging with him.
Ultimately, the physical body would be the vessel, and the spirit could control a portion of the heaven and earth runes, constructing divine chains of order, effortlessly obliterating opponents with the divine might of heaven and earth.
However, at this moment, as Chu Feng achieved Sub-Saint status, he did not use his spirit to control. Instead, he unleashed boundless vital energy, using his physical body to control the order.
He was walking the path of 'Sanctification by Body'.
He exhausted every method, all for the sake of becoming stronger, even stronger. In his view, the physical body was not merely a vessel, but also a fuser and controller, truly digesting these divine chains of order.
Even Little Saint Luo Yong from the outer universe was treading this path. And he had defeated Luo Yong; how could he not achieve it? He wanted to be stronger!
The boundless vital energy he exuded returned, wrapping countless order symbols, and merged with his flesh and blood for a full day and night, completely digesting them.
He achieved Sub-Saint status!
"Still not strong enough, I want to be stronger!" Chu Feng roared.
He once again comprehended the natural world, drawing forth the mystical power from the cosmic starry sky. Innumerable divine chains of order reappeared, merging with his physical body.
Boom! He again enveloped them with his vital energy and absorbed them completely.
This time, the digestion by his flesh and blood and the fusion of the order symbols were relatively quick. He succeeded in just half a day.
When he attempted this for the third time, he found it exceedingly difficult, succeeding only with great effort.
For the fourth time, Chu Feng was forced to activate his Human King bloodline, but his body was too "saturated." His bones, internal organs, and flesh were all filled with order, making it difficult to collect more.
Finally, he used his Human King bloodline to forcibly complete one more instance!
His physical body was completely saturated, unable to accommodate any more. Chu Feng felt as if his entire body were about to explode. His power was boundless; he felt he could single-handedly grasp a moon or lift a star!
Sub-Saint!
Chu Feng successfully entered this realm, and was exceptionally powerful, surpassing other evolvers at the initial Sub-Saint stage. This was because what he desired was the strength to contend with higher-level evolvers!
Moreover, because he was walking the path of 'Sanctification by Body', he would be even stronger.
"Not enough, my spirit must also transcend!"
Boom! When Chu Feng once again gathered the divine chains of order, his spirit burst forth, immensely vast, gathering the light of order throughout the starry sky, absorbing it with his spiritual power.
Doing so was extremely dangerous. His physical body was already saturated, and his spirit was nurtured within his physical body. This could easily cause a collision, leading to a massive explosion!
Generally, people controlled order with their spirit and bore the spirit with their physical body. This was the normal path to sanctification.
But now, Chu Feng was not only achieving sanctification through his body, but also treading the path of others, taking a dual approach. He aimed to reach the strongest possible state at the Sub-Saint level!
Boom! Heaven and earth seemed to be undergoing a massive explosion. Even though Chu Feng's physical body and spirit were absurdly strong, they continuously developed cracks at this moment, almost being destroyed by the impact of order and other forces.
He stuffed ancient medicinal herbs into his mouth, one after another, all Sub-Saint level. These were obtained by "escorting" some Saint Sons home after defeating them in the Great Dream Pure Land.
Hum! In the end, lightning flashed and thunder roared around Chu Feng. Divine flames soared hundreds of thousands of feet high, and runes engulfed the area, like a mountain torrent; it was terrifying.
His physical body's wounds healed, and his spirit became increasingly full. His spirit transformed into divine rainbows, intertwining in this void, capturing divine chains of order, and continuously strengthening itself.
Boom! Finally, Chu Feng leaped up, let out a long roar toward the sky, and punched a hole through the cosmic void!
By the time he calmed down, his flesh was as clear and bright as jade. His long, glossy black hair shone, reflecting light, and fell to his waist. He appeared to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, a truly handsome youth. Yet, he had now achieved Sub-Saint status, and not just an ordinary Sub-Saint!
This achievement was enough to shake the entire universe!
"I... have emerged from seclusion!"
"Starry Sky Knights, Xilin Clan, Corpse Clan, Heavenly Deity Clan..." he mused. "If you dare to show yourselves, I'll obliterate every single one of you!"
These people were still making noise in the starry sky, demanding that he appear to apologize and deliberately humiliating him. Chu Feng sneered. If he were to truly appear this time, who would be scared of whom?
Some also wished to intercept and kill him, to prevent him from marrying into the Sub-Immortal Clan. If these Sub-Saints and old monsters from various clans were to appear now, they were destined for a tragic end after their initial joy.
At this moment, the star sea was indeed not peaceful. Many people were discussing the Sub-Immortal Clan, debating whether Wu Lunhui would dare to go for the marriage.
"Heh heh, does he even dare to show up?" scoffed one. "Last time, he was almost wiped out. I'm sure he'll hide away. If he really tries to go to the Sub-Immortal Clan, he'll be beaten to death on the way. What Chu Devil, what Chu Divine King... This time, in front of all the Sub-Saint seniors, he's just a worm!"
Undoubtedly, those who spoke such words were associated with the Netherworld Clan, Xilin Clan, Corpse Clan, Heavenly Deity Clan, and others.
