Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

Gu Chen's thoughts spurred into action, calling forth his panel.

Name: Gu Chen

Martial Skills: Golden Bell Shield (Complete, Deductible), Burning Vein Finger (Complete, Deductible), Phantom Traceless Step (Complete), Light Shadow Sword Skill (Beginner), Condensing Pulse Sword Wave (Complete, Deductible), Great Vajra Divine Power (Complete, Deductible)

Inner Strength: Pure Yang Wuji Gong

Cultivation: 600 years

Realm: Late Stage of Vajra Stage

Fu Points: 182

With the Qingfeng Faction, including the one inside Wei Jiang, Gu Chen had slain two demonic ghosts of sin level as well as several ghosts of specter level. Among them, the sin-level ghost inside Wei Jiang was the strongest, almost breaking through to the middle phase. A sin level middle phase is equivalent to a warrior of the Returning to True Stage of the Human Clan.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Therefore, it contributed a full fifty-two fu points to Gu Chen.

As for the other sin-level demonic ghost, with its weaker strength, it only yielded forty-eight fu points to Gu Chen.

The remaining tens of fu points all came from those specter-level demonic ghosts.

Looking at the 182 fu points displayed on the panel, Gu Chen took a deep breath, his eyes brimming with a touch of excitement.

Since he had reached the Vajra Stage, several months had passed. One could say that the Vajra Stage realm had troubled Gu Chen for too long.

Of course, if this thought of Gu Chen were to be heard by others, he would probably be beaten to death.

After all, even for the most talented warriors, it would take at least a year or two to consolidate at the Vajra Stage. This was true even for Chen Yu. Who would have thought that Gu Chen, after only staying at the Vajra Stage for a few months, would be somewhat impatient?

But for Gu Chen, he indeed had been stuck at the Vajra Stage for a very long time because he had the help of the panel. As long as he had fu points, breaking through was as easy as drinking water.

Gu Chen looked at the "Deductible" tags following the Golden Bell Shield and the Great Vajra Divine Power among his Superior Martial Skills and thought, "Panel, deduce!"

Gu Chen knew this was his chance to break through the physical limits and achieve the Vajra Indestructible Body!

Whoosh——

Suddenly, on the panel, forty fu points disappeared, and the characters of the Golden Bell Shield and the Great Vajra Divine Power began to blur.

Hum!

The martial knowledge unique to the Golden Bell Shield and the Great Vajra Divine Power appeared in Gu Chen's mind, merging together, sieving the chaff from the wheat. Simultaneously, as if entering an epiphany, countless sparks of inspiration burst forth in his mind.

Innumerable insights about martial body refinement continuously emerged in Gu Chen's mind, causing his brain to swell.

With the excellent foundation of these two Superior Martial Skills and the aid of the panel, a brand new martial art was gradually birthed in Gu Chen's mind!

And this new martial art, replacing the Golden Bell Shield and the Great Vajra Divine Power, was named — Vajra Indestructible Divine Art!

Gu Chen, sensing the profound wonders of this newly emerged martial art on the panel, knew it was much more advanced than the Golden Bell Shield and the Great Vajra Divine Power. However, based on the fu points used for deduction, he learned that this newly acquired Vajra Indestructible Divine Art was still a Superior Martial Skill.

It had not, as Gu Chen had imagined, merged two Superior Martial Skills into an Earth Grade Martial Skill.

But Gu Chen was not greedy, for this newly acquired Superior Martial Skill was the key to achieving the physical pinnacle, the Vajra Indestructible Body!

Looking at the remaining 142 fu points on the panel, Gu Chen did not hesitate. He immediately enhanced the newly emerged Vajra Indestructible Divine Art on the panel to the rudimentary stage.

Boom!

At that moment, Gu Chen's body reverberated sharply in the outside world. Countless golden lights burst from the pores around his body, spreading inside out, enveloping his entire being, dyeing him a dazzling gold color—even his hair.

In Gu Chen's body, his flesh, bones, tendons, and even organs all radiated bursts of golden light, so resplendent that it seemed like a small sun. The glow on Gu Chen's surface originated from within.

Gu Chen sat cross-legged, with a solemn and majestic bearing, his expression grave. Inside him, thunderous vibrations roared, the sound of his organs trembling.

Thump thump thump!

Simultaneously, Gu Chen's heartbeats sounded like drums, clearly audible to the outside world. As his heart pumped faster, it caused his blood to surge and circulate rapidly, combining with the rhythm of his flesh and bones. His whole body resonated, triggering the most intense transformation of his physique!

Gu Chen's bones clanged, as if being forged, like metal striking metal. Layers of impurities were expunged, leaving his bones pristine, gleaming with a translucent luster akin to the finest suet jade without a single flaw.

In that moment, the strength of Gu Chen's body, which had plateaued at the Ancient Savage Dragon level, surged once more.

Eight hundred fifty thousand...

Nine hundred thousand...

Nine hundred fifty thousand...

One million!

In just a short while, Gu Chen's pure physical strength had reached one million catties!

Soon after the increase ceased, Gu Chen glanced at the panel. With the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art reaching the rudimentary stage, 124 fu points remained on the panel. Gu Chen spurred his thoughts into action again and directly elevated the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art to the beginner level.

Rumble!

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion, the mutation within Gu Chen's body that had just ended started anew!

```

This transformation was even more violent than before, as the strength of his flesh body continued to increase. Gu Chen only felt a secret force emerging from the deepest part of his being, blooming within him, and spreading to his limbs and bones.

At this moment, a fierce light spread through the marrow in Gu Chen's bones, making all his marrow suddenly become several times more dazzling, and then began to shake intensely.

Puh!

Gu Chen's pores spurted blood, staining him completely red.

His bone marrow was producing blood, and as the old blood was expelled from the pores, a steady stream of new blood emerged from within Gu Chen.

This was akin to cutting hair and washing marrow, the most fundamental evolution of the flesh body!

Had anyone else been present, they would have been greatly surprised because changing blood and washing marrow were experiences exclusive to martial arts grandmasters!

Only upon reaching the realm of a martial arts grandmaster would one undergo the dual trials of changing blood and washing marrow, allowing the physical body to undergo a transformation as radical as shedding an old body for a new one, with each refinement elevating the physical strength.

With just the physical body alone, one could roam the world, a single palm strike powerful enough to collapse a small mountain—a truly terrifying strength capable of smashing mountains and splitting the earth.

Yet Gu Chen, although still in the Vajra Stage, had already experienced this transformation, which typically required reaching the level of a grandmaster. Although it happened only once, this one time would bring earth-shattering changes to Gu Chen's physical body!

Simultaneously, one could imagine how terrifying Gu Chen's flesh body would become after this transformation.

And only when the flesh body reached the indestructible state of Vajra could one prematurely experience the hair cutting and marrow washing rites at the Vajra Stage, thoroughly solidifying the martial artist's foundational cultivation, benefitting the warrior's future immensely.

Golden flames surged from every pore of Gu Chen's body. He sat cross-legged in a dazzling golden light, radiating gloriously like a sun god.

This fierce light cleansed his body of impurities and the sullied blood, burning it all away.

Given the current quality and strength of Gu Chen's physical body, the amount of impurities expelled illustrated the rapidity of the bodily enhancement!

At this moment, every part of Gu Chen's body—flesh, bones, visceral organs—radiated light.

They vibrated following a special pattern, with his organs rumbling increasingly clearly, becoming more crystal-like and transparent, and the flow of his blood accelerated, lapping against the walls of his vessels with a sound like the roaring of the sea.

Especially his blood, which faintly shimmered with a pale golden luster, somewhat dazzling to behold.

Not only that, even his bone marrow and the bones themselves were enveloped in a glaring light, while his flesh seemed to be forged from some metal, translucent and wrapped in radiant light.

With the blood continuously surging within him, a vast ocean-like vital energy, pale golden in color, pressed outwards from within his body into the surrounding void.

Threads and sparks drifted among the pale golden vital energy emanating into the void around Gu Chen, crackling and sparking, an incredible sight to behold.

This was the final level of the Vajra Stage, the ultimate realm of the physical body—indestructible Vajra!

In such a silent moment, with no one around, nobody knew that Gu Chen had accomplished a feat that no warrior in Shen Zhou had achieved in hundreds of years.

If the news of Gu Chen attaining the indestructible state of Vajra spread, not only would Qiongtian Mansion and Shen Zhou be shaken, but the entire continent would be rocked!

After centuries, a warrior had again reached the ultimate physical state of indestructible Vajra, an event shocking enough to astound the world!

At this moment, every move Gu Chen made was filled with explosive power. His body was crystalline and lustrous, emitting a pale golden light, as if he had cultivated a "Golden Body", flawless and fragrant, even his hair, now reaching his waist, lustrous and radiant with health.

It was certain to say that Gu Chen had embarked on the great path of physical sanctification, achieving no small feat.

Now, merely by sitting there, Gu Chen exuded an intimidating presence as if his physical body alone could collapse the void, his vibrant vital energy lurking within like an Ancient Savage Dragon, brimming with life and terrifying in its might.

Gu Chen's physique was also becoming more robust and symmetrical, as if measured with precision, evenly distributed throughout his entire body, not a bit too much or too little.

His features became even more masculine and handsome, strikingly three-dimensional, with eyebrows merging into his temples and eyes like dazzling stars. He looked like a perfect sculpture crafted by an artist, flawless.

"Is this the limit of the physical body—indestructible Vajra?" Gu Chen opened his eyes, and as his pupils dilated, sparks seemed to streak through the void, accompanied by a flash of bright light.

Having exerted so much effort, he had finally reached this long-desired realm, which left Gu Chen feeling overwhelmingly emotional, almost beside himself.

"At last!"

Feeling the explosive power coming from within his body, Gu Chen clenched his fist lightly, and the void seemed to tremble.

With just a bit of effort, a secret force appeared to surge from the deepest part of him, and his entire body would be covered in a divine glow, as if a deity descending, resplendent in splendor.

At that moment, Gu Chen's mind stirred, and he summoned the panel.
