NOVPUBSu Changkong’s right hand clenched tightly into a fist and he smashed it into the air.
"Roar!"
The violent force was like a rampaging behemoth, roaring and charging forward, plowing a massive trench six to seven yards wide in the earth. All the trees, rocks, and hills on its path burst violently and flew in all directions.
This was merely a punch thrown by Su Changkong using his physical strength alone!
"Crack!"
With a squeeze of his left hand’s five fingers, space itself began to twist and collapse in his grip, emitting the sound of an explosion.
"This is too terrifying... After devouring a hundred Alien Beasts, the Giant Whale Skill has broken through, and the Giant Whale True Qi has merged into the muscles and bones throughout my body. The strength of my physique is almost on par with the Heavenly Dragon Battle Puppet in the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky!"
Looking at his own hands, Su Changkong couldn’t help but sigh and shake with awe.
Devouring a hundred Alien Beasts, Su Changkong’s physique underwent a colossal metamorphosis. It’s no exaggeration to say that, without using any Martial Arts Skills, his body alone could now withstand attacks from pseudo-Divine Skills!
Previously, the likes of Ba Yi and Ba Chen were born with extraordinary gifts, specializing in toughening Martial Arts, and their strong physiques allowed them to withstand pseudo-Divine Skills. If not for Su Changkong’s Impregnable Blade Soul, killing them wouldn’t have been so easy.
But now, the strength of Su Changkong’s body had surpassed theirs, almost comparable to the Heavenly Dragon Battle Puppet nurtured in the Transforming Dragon Gate for two to three thousand years; after all, that was merely an inanimate object, whereas Su Changkong was a living being!
The multitude of benefits from having a powerful physique were immense: greater strength, increased speed, and on top of that, an increase in the body’s endurance, capable of sustaining stronger bursts of power.
"Originally, the limit for unleashing my Mysterious Turtle True Essence at full force was one drop; any more would tear my veins and body asunder. But now..."
Su Changkong’s heart thumped energetically, aware of what this meant: the body is the foundation of everything, and the stronger the body, the more terrifying the attacks that can be unleashed.
Whoosh!
Deciding to test his current limits, a giant tiger phantom appeared behind Su Changkong. Within his Dantian, a drop of Mysterious Turtle True Essence exploded, surging through his veins and muscles into the phantom behind him, rapidly inflating the tiger to nearly sixty yards in length.
"Yet, this isn’t my limit!"
Su Changkong thought to himself, as with a thought, a second drop of True Essence exploded, then a third!
Majestic True Essence erupted wildly; in the past, such an outburst would have torn his veins asunder. Now, he only felt a slight strain!
Three drops of Mysterious Turtle True Essence burst forth simultaneously.
"Boom!"
The white tiger phantom behind Su Changkong rapidly swelled to fifty yards long and twenty yards high. Its white fur billowed, and its pale golden eyes were filled with dignity. The spiritual energy of nature churned into disarray, nearly indistinguishable from a real True Beast, more than several times stronger than before!
"Roar!"
The White Tiger opened its maw wide, emitting a roar that shook an area of a hundred miles.
"Rumble!"
Endless booming echoed throughout the mountain range, the entire colossal wilderness shook and trembled, the visible soundwaves rolling like thunder, and a stampede of myriad beasts!
"Crack! Crack!"
The clouds in the sky dispersed, the moon seemed to tremble, swaths of space vibrated and exploded, revealing pitch-black Chaotic Void; mountains and towering trees disintegrated to ashes under the impact of the soundwaves, almost vibrated, disassembled into Nothingness.
This barren mountain range shook as if about to crack open, causing landslides!
When everything quieted down, within a radius of nearly a mile around Su Changkong, everything had disappeared, obliterated into ash. This patch of Nothingness almost vanished into chaos, but under the influence of the powers of Heaven and Earth Nature, it slowly healed.
"This... is too terrifying! Originally, unleashing a single drop of Mysterious Turtle True Essence at once was my limit, but now, after the metamorphosis of my physique, I can unleash three drops at once! The power has undergone a qualitative change!"
Looking at the surroundings reduced to ruin – the rocks, trees, and the void – Su Changkong swallowed and his eyes filled with shock. His Mysterious Turtle True Essence output had increased, and naturally, the Martial Arts Skills he unleashed were far stronger than before.
"That Gu Lie’s Golden Armor Divine Path Skill focused on defense, and I had difficulty breaking it for a while. But now... I fear it would take only a handful of moves to shatter his ’turtle shell’ and kill him dead."
Su Changkong clenched his fists. Unleashing three drops of Mysterious Turtle True Essence at once was an outright Transcendence of the pseudo-Divine Skills’ level, imbued with an invincible might, not much less than the power displayed by Ji Xuexiao and Wei Shengxin at that time!
"And beyond that... the greatest change is in the True Blood within me, all the blood in my body has transformed into True Blood. Once triggered, how terrifying will it be?"
Su Changkong was somewhat expectant.
Originally, Su Changkong’s heart contained only a cluster of True Blood. Driven by this True Blood, the Giant Whale Body Technique allowed him, even before he became a Five-Qi Grandmaster, to slay a Five-Qi Grandmaster like Qi Gang.
But thereafter, it couldn’t keep up with him, and even when triggering the True Blood, it was only better than a regular Five-Qi Grandmaster and nowhere near as powerful as those who possessed pseudo-Divine Skills. Instead, it could strain his body too much, rather like a white elephant.
But now, after devouring one hundred top-tier Alien Beasts and breaking the Giant Whale Skill into the 11th realm, all the blood in Su Changkong’s body had condensed and metamorphosed into resplendent True Blood.
A single drop of his blood, when dispersed, could fill a small pond!
"Giant Whale Body Technique!"
Su Changkong took a deep breath and coursed his Qi and Blood.
