177: Soul Breakthrough

Body Arts are far more valuable than Battle Arts, which can be seen from their selling price.

Previously, Lin Chen's ultimate Battle Art, which fused nine branch laws, only sold for 10 source essence.

Ultimate Battle Arts can already serve as the heritage of some overlord-level sects.

It can be said that a single Ultimate Body Art can allow a body cultivation force to grow into an overlord rank!

God-tier Body Arts are also highly sought after by ordinary body cultivation forces.

Every Ultimate Body Art circulating in the world today can be traced back to countless years ago, either created by geniuses of heaven-shaking talent or by the combined wisdom of countless beings.

It's hard to imagine the impact the three Body Arts Lin Chen is currently selling will bring.

Whichever force obtains an Ultimate Body Art will have the opportunity to become an overlord-level force!

In fact, Lin Chen sold them cheaply; he completely underestimated the value of Ultimate Body Arts... At this moment, in Hong Country, countless forces noticed the three Body Arts, including many merchants from other Great Worlds who came for business.

"Quick, inform the clan! We must obtain one of the Body Arts!"

"Ultimate Body Arts, how many years has it been since they last appeared? And now two have appeared at once."

"Quickly apply for funds from the sect, and be fast!"

An Ultimate Body Art costs 600 source essence, which is no small sum. The total assets of a Later Stage of Dao Realm powerhouse are only about a hundred source essence.

The two major body cultivation sects in Hong Country also noticed the two Ultimate Body Arts.

"Sect Master, quickly make a decision, or it will be too late!"

In a huge training ground, Xiong Lie, with a bear's head and a human body, anxiously shouted.

Opposite him was a brawny man over ten meters tall, whose appearance was very similar to that of humans, except his height far exceeded humans.

This was precisely a powerful race from the Endless Realm—the Giant Spirit Race!

"The amplification of two Body Arts cannot be stacked. Our sect already has the Celestial Tyrant Body Art; we shouldn't be too greedy."

A rough voice echoed in the training ground. Xiong Lie was stunned upon hearing this, then nodded and said:

"I was impulsive just now. Even if we had an additional Ultimate Body Art, at most it would give our sect another faction; our overall strength would not increase."

"Moreover, this Body Art would require a large amount of resources and effort to research in the early stages, so it's indeed not worth it."

The same scene was unfolding at another overlord-level body cultivation sect in Hong Country.

Since both sects already possessed Ultimate high-tier Body Arts, these two Body Arts held little appeal for them.

At this moment, in the Space-Time Holy Land of Hong Country, Yu Wanxing sat cross-legged on the high platform of the main hall.

A Later Stage of Dao Realm powerhouse was reporting to him about the Body Art commotion.

"Oh?"

"So, this was caused by that boy Lin Chen again."

"That boy really has many secrets."

Yu Wanxing had also suspected that the Body Arts might have been created by Lin Chen, but when three appeared at once, he abandoned that idea.

One must know that an Ultimate-tier Body Art requires countless generations of ancestors to perfect.

If a single being could create an Ultimate-tier Body Art, and a high-tier Ultimate one at that, then that being would at least be at the Imperial Rank Golden Body level!

"Acquire all three Body Arts; we can't let the profits flow elsewhere."

Yu Wanxing said indifferently.

The Dao Realm powerhouse below immediately bowed respectfully and withdrew.

At this moment, Yu Wanxing on the high platform slowly looked into the distance, as if he could see Lin Chen through layers of space.

"This is getting interesting. It seems this boy might truly surprise me in this Multiverse War."

The sensation caused by the three Body Arts ended with the royal family's acquisition.

The value of these Body Arts was too high. Ordinary body cultivation forces in Hong Country needed to raise funds, and external merchants also couldn't make decisions in a short time; they needed to apply to their clans.

However, contacting two Great Worlds was not as convenient as using the virtual world.

They simply didn't have enough time to purchase them.

Ultimately, external forces who wanted these Body Arts could only obtain them from the Hong Country royal family at a higher price.

After the royal family acquired the Body Arts, Lin Chen also received the information immediately.

Looking at the assets in his virtual account, Lin Chen was incredibly excited.

"My realm can finally break through!"

Lin Chen then directly exchanged all the source essence.

About an hour later, the source essence was delivered.

"First, devour them all!"

At this moment, in Lin Chen's Inner World, there were 1279 source essence, each the size of a watermelon.

The Hong Country trading platform charges handling fees for selling items, but as a viscount, Lin Chen received significant reductions in fees.

With a thought, Lin Chen's thousands of source essence transformed into a massive energy tide.

This time, the system absorbed them equally quickly, finishing in about an hour.

Name: Lin Chen

Realm: Venerable Realm Ninth Level + (Can be upgraded after fusing laws and spiritual transformation)

Spirit: Half-step Dao Realm + (Consumes 5P energy points to upgrade)

Golden Body: Saint-tier Fourth Forging + (Consumes 30P energy points to upgrade)

Law Fusion: Initial fusion of two laws consumes 0.1 P energy points; each additional law increases consumption by 0.1 P... energy points: 1293.15 P

"Let's go to Flame World to break through."

Lin Chen knew that this breakthrough would cause a huge commotion, and too many people were watching him now, so he needed to be low-key.

Immediately, Lin Chen traveled to the Flame World through a dream crossing.

It was that familiar aura. It hadn't been long since he last came, yet the entire Flame World was even more dilapidated.

In his perception, the entire Flame World was plagued by natural disasters: volcanoes, earthquakes, hurricanes... Lin Chen went directly to a giant volcano.

After comprehending all the branch laws of the Great Dao of Fire, he already had strong resistance to flames.

"First, break through the spiritual realm, then fuse the laws."

These were all necessary conditions for breaking through to the Dao Realm.

Lin Chen then directly consumed 5P energy points.

Suddenly, he felt his Mental Energy begin to grow wildly.

His thoughts became clearer, his brain's processing speed increased, and his spiritual perception range rapidly expanded... Bang!

In the ethereal, his Mental Energy seemed to break through a layer of shackles, and his spirit began an unprecedented transformation!

The spirit is formed by the fusion of Mental Energy and soul, and at this moment, his spirit began to transform into a true spirit.

The true spirit is the fundamental imprint of a life form. If the true spirit is immortal, it means that the life form will not perish in the world.

This process of transformation was painful, and this spiritual transformation was a greater leap than his previous 99 body transformations.

However, this time it wasn't as painful; Lin Chen only felt incredibly comfortable.

The entire transformation process lasted for one day before it ended.

At this moment, Lin Chen's spirit had completely transformed into a true spirit!

With a thought, his true spirit power emanated outwards, instantly enveloping the entire Flame World, then continued to spread outwards, reaching into the endless dark void.

His true spirit power even directly penetrated into the second and third layers of space-time.

"The true spirit perception range is roughly three times that of a small world."

At this moment, Lin Chen, relying on his true spirit power, could sweep through countless Venerable Realm powerhouses!

The most difficult part of breaking through to the Dao Realm is this transformation from spirit to true spirit; this step has blocked countless beings.
