265: Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Manual

"So this is what a Celestial looks like..."

Chen Heng exclaimed, looking at everything around him, which had become incredibly clear.

After temporarily breaking through to Celestial, Chen Heng found that his way of seeing the world was different.

He could see the withered Meridians in the rosewood table and the Meridians of Xiao He, who was sound asleep in the next room.

Moreover, he could see every important node; it seemed that if he cut off a certain node, he could put someone in a death zone.

But around him, there also appeared clusters of things twisting the air.

Chen Heng reached out and lightly touched them; those things, like heat radiation, immediately wrapped around his hand.

His fingers began to wither at a visible speed, and the Indestructible Golden Body was completely ineffective!

With a crack, Chen Heng's withering hand was directly torn off by him.

"What is this thing?" Chen Heng frowned, throwing the completely withered palm onto the table.

"Forget it, let's not think about it for now."

Shaking his head, Chen Heng focused his attention on the Bloodline, which had the optimization button lit up.

He gently clicked on the Asura Bloodline's Optimization.

-17

"Hiss~" Although Chen Heng was rich and powerful now, seeing seventeen Optimization attempts disappear at once still made his heart ache a little.

[Asura Bloodline 50% → 55%]

"Something feels wrong. Why did the consumed Optimization attempts suddenly become so many?"

Scratching his head, Chen Heng, although a little puzzled, still had no intention of stopping.

After the effect of this drop of Boiling Blood passed, Chen Heng crushed the second drop of Boiling Blood.

-19, -21

After two Optimizations, Chen Heng's Asura Bloodline reached a concentration of 65%.

Only one drop of Boiling Blood could be condensed per day, so the Bloodline's Optimization would have to wait for now.

Next, Chen Heng turned his gaze to the Martial Skill, which he hadn't Optimized in a long time.

Since possessing three types of Bloodline Power, Chen Heng hadn't encountered an opponent who could make him use his Martial Skill for a long time.

However, it still needed to be Optimized, otherwise, it would be a joke if it couldn't keep up with his Physical Body.

Internal Skill: Nine Revolutions Longevity Art (Eighth Revolution), Five Elements Five Organs Diagram (Netherworld Heart Fire Perfection, Lung Metal Perfection, Spleen Earth Perfection, Liver Wood Perfection)

External Skill: Indestructible Golden Body (Major Achievement), Seven Mansions Divine Saber (Major Achievement), Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Fist (Major Achievement), Dragon Tiger Strength (Maximum 300 times), Hegemon Spear Technique (Major Achievement)

"Let's Optimize the Hegemon Spear Technique first."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Heng still decided to Optimize the Hegemon Spear Technique, which had only been evolved once.

But when he clicked the optimization button, the Hegemon Spear Technique did not change.

The original Optimization interface began to twist, and a brand-new option appeared before Chen Heng's eyes.

[Three secondary evolved External Skills have been reached. Do you wish to proceed with a tertiary Fusion Evolution?]

[Yes / No]

"Fusion Evolution?" Chen Heng was stunned. What kind of thing was Fusion Evolution?

[Fusion Evolution can break through the limits of existing External Skills, further strengthening their power.]

A simple explanation that was utterly useless.

"Trash System, I'll replace you sooner or later..."

Chen Heng muttered, torn about whether to try the Fusion.

Trying it would definitely not be a loss, after all, everything after each Optimization brought him great surprises.

But this Fusion... "Forget it, the weak ones are useless, and the strong ones can't be used."

"Optimizing it definitely won't be a loss. Let's do it!"

Chen Heng shook his head and clicked 'Yes'.

-150

"So much!"

But before Chen Heng could finish exclaiming, a strong sense of detachment erupted from within him, followed by waves of emptiness.

"Holy crap! Where are my indestructible golden patterns?!"

Looking at the indestructible golden patterns that had disappeared from his body, Chen Heng's mind buzzed.

[Fusion Evolution successful]

...And then what?

Why is there no more movement?

Damn it! Give me back my Indestructible Golden Body!

Chen Heng cursed wildly in his heart, but he didn't make a sound. Instead, he opened his system backpack.

"Whoa! My eyes!"

The moment he opened the system backpack, a seven-colored light gave Chen Heng's titanium alloy dog eyes a critical hit.

Rubbing his teary eyes, Chen Heng took out the dazzling scroll.

[Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture]

"What a domineering name!"

[Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture: A top-tier External Skill fused and evolved from three secondary evolved External Skills, in conjunction with the host's development direction.]

[The Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture is divided into ten stages, represented by the ten Heavenly Stems from the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.]

[They are: Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui.]

[Each stage has its own profound mysteries; please explore them yourself.]

"Hmm... why does it feel like the System's explanations are getting lazier and lazier?"

Chen Heng rubbed his chin and directly used the Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture in his hand.

[Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture (Grade Jia)]

As soon as this line of text appeared on Chen Heng's panel, his originally lost indestructible golden patterns reappeared on his body.

Both the Eight Desolations Six Harmonies Fist and the Seven Mansions Divine Saber reappeared in his mind.

Not only that, Chen Heng's body, which had been somewhat bloated even when suppressed, quickly returned to normal.

Finally, he even reverted to his former handsome appearance, with a feminine touch.

Looking at the handsome Young Master in the mirror whom he hadn't seen in a long time, Chen Heng's lips curled slightly upward.

Although he had become much slenderer now, his strength had not diminished at all; instead, it had become even more powerful.

His Physical Body's strength had not decreased at all, rising to an even higher level than before.

Before Chen Heng could revel in his joy for much longer, he discovered that something seemed amiss within his Dantian.

A blood-red, small figure with curled limbs appeared inside his Dantian, looking nine-tenths similar to him.

It seemed to be an embryo?

"Am I... pregnant?"

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Chen Heng's back.

He hadn't felt fear when facing the Wutong God, nor when facing the evil Dragon.

But now, a sense of fear, almost despair, grew in his heart.

"That's not right, how can a man get pregnant?"

Just as Chen Heng was about to explode, the System's explanation finally appeared before his eyes.

[heaven and earth blood fetus: Similar to the 'slaying three corpses' in cultivation, after it matures, you can choose to slay it or use it as a Clone. Once mature, its strength will be comparable to the main body.]

"Then slaying it or not slaying it doesn't seem to make much difference?"

Chen Heng asked, a little confused.

If it was the same whether he slayed it or not, keeping it as an aid would also be a good choice.

[Slaying the Blood Fetus results in a Heavenly Martial, not slaying it results in an Earthly Martial.]

After the System finished explaining, it fell silent again; no matter how Chen Heng called, there was no further response.

It didn't explain the difference between Heavenly Martial and Earthly Martial, nor how to use this heaven and earth blood fetus.

However, the heaven and earth blood fetus was so tiny right now, it didn't look like it could be used.

"Forget it..." Chen Heng sighed. This wasn't the first or second time he had been startled today.

As for how to use the heaven and earth blood fetus, whether to slay it or not, he would think about it later.

Setting aside the newly acquired Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture, Chen Heng turned his attention to the two Internal Skills that were both nearing Perfection.
