188: Chapter 188 The Third Gate! Sixth Grade Perfection!
Inside the Cultivation Room of the Heaven Character Number One Villa.
Wang Pingan was completely unaware of the terrifying phenomenon outside that was enough to shake the entire Xuanyuan University.
He had immersed all his focus into the crazy "war" occurring within his body, full of destruction and rebirth!
After successfully breaking through the "upper jiao gate", which symbolized spirit and will, and the "middle jiao gate", which symbolized qi, blood, and the physical body, the energy within him had accumulated to a terrifying level that made even him feel palpitations!
That vast, ocean-like golden qi and blood surged and roared crazily within his meridians, which had been widened more than tenfold, like an angry Yangtze River!
Every cycle made his physical body tougher and more powerful!
But he knew this was not enough!
Far from enough!
What he wanted to impact was the last, most mysterious, and most core gate in his body!
That final barrier located deep within his dantian and sea of qi, which governed all his life essence and connected his body and soul—the Lower Jiao Gate!
Only by breaking through this gate and completely merging his spirit, qi, blood, and life force into one, reaching the perfect state of unity of "essence, qi, and spirit", could he truly step into the pinnacle of a Sixth Grade martial artist!
"Come on! Let me see just how hard this last gate is!"
Wang Pingan's will burned to the extreme at this moment!
A silent roar full of madness and determination erupted in his heart!
"Break... for me! Break! Break!"
Driven by his will, the torrent of qi and blood within him, which had grown to a terrifying level that even he found somewhat unfamiliar, changed direction once again!
They no longer surged aimlessly but transformed into an incomparably huge, indestructible, terrifying drill condensed from pure golden qi and blood!
Carrying an indomitable, determined will capable of drilling through heaven and earth and penetrating the origin, it fiercely drilled toward that final gate located deep within his dantian and sea of qi, which radiated an ancient and mysterious aura!
Boom!
A chaotic, thunderous sound, deeper and more terrifying than any before, exploded within his dantian and sea of qi!
At that moment, Wang Pingan felt as if his entire lower body was about to be completely vaporized!
An extreme, indescribable pain spread wildly from his dantian to his limbs and bones!
This pain was no longer a simple physical tearing, but a decomposition and reconstruction originating from the most fundamental level of life!
"Pfft!"
Even Wang Pingan's formidable physical body, tempered by the "Myriad Calamities Indestructible Body", could finally no longer withstand that terrifying impact at this moment!
He violently spat out a large mouthful of scalding blood that shimmered with a brilliant golden luster!
The blood-colored cracks on his skin surface that had just healed burst open again!
This time it was not seeping, but gushing!
Streams of tiny blood arrows shot wildly outward from every pore of his body!
In just a few seconds, he had turned into a terrifying blood-soaked figure, as if he had just been fished out of a pool of blood!
"Damn it... this is getting a bit carried away..."
Feeling the life force rapidly slipping away within him and the extreme pain that almost shattered his will, for the first time, a trace of an emotion called "regret" welled up in Wang Pingan's heart.
He felt that he might have really gone too far this time.
Continuously impacting the "Three Jiao Gates" was simply not something a human could do!
However, once the arrow is fired, there is no turning back!
Things had reached this point; he had no retreat!
Either succeed!
Or die!
"Die? That word has never existed in my, Wang Pingan's, dictionary!"
An unprecedented longing for "life" and an obsession with "becoming stronger" originating from the depths of his soul erupted at this moment!
His will, which had become somewhat scattered due to the extreme pain, condensed once again!
It became tougher and crazier than ever before!
"Isn't it just a damn gate?! I'm going to smash it to pieces today! System! Hold on for me!"
He roared crazily, pushing his SSS-rank "Life Dominator" talent to the extreme!
【Talent Effect 1: Absolute Control!】
Activate!
Hum—
His body, which was on the verge of collapse like a leaking balloon, shuddered violently at this moment!
The billions of cells within him that were wailing and breaking seemed to have received a supreme decree from "God" in this instant!
They stopped collapsing!
They began to divide and recombine crazily at an inconceivable speed that completely violated the Life Law!
Those golden bloods that were gushing wildly outward, filled with immense life force, also seemed to be under some invisible pull!
They actually flowed backward and fused back into his body!
His injuries were healing crazily at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye!
And the torrent of qi and blood within him, which had been greatly consumed by impacting the gate, also seemed to have received endless replenishment, becoming violent and surging once again!
"Come again!"
Wang Pingan let out another crazy roar in his heart!
The indestructible golden drill formed from pure qi and blood flared with blinding light at this moment!
Carrying a determined will of "success or death" and "all or nothing", it fiercely crashed again into that final gate, which was already covered with countless cracks and tottering!
Crack!
A crisp yet incomparably grand shattering sound, as if coming from above the nine heavens or from beneath the nine underworlds, finally resonated through Wang Pingan's entire body and mind!
That indestructible final "Lower Jiao Gate", symbolizing the source of life, was completely smashed at this moment!
Rumble!
The moment the gate opened, the spirit power of the upper jiao, the qi and blood power of the middle jiao, and the life force of the lower jiao!
These three distinct yet originating-from-the-same-source powers no longer had any barriers between them at this moment!
They converged, blended, and swirled in his dantian and sea of qi, like three vast rivers rushing from different sources!
Forming a gargantuan, three-colored energy vortex radiating an aura of chaos and primordial beginning!
Essence, qi, and spirit merged into one!
Sixth Grade Great Perfection achieved!
