87: Achievement of Zhenwu

After finishing his Cultivation, Gu Chang walked out of the discharge room; due to his arrival, this place undoubtedly became even more important.

The entire power station, within a three-kilometer radius, was cleared out, and the entire Divine Martial Forbidden Army was stationed around it.

Anyone wishing to enter would undergo strict scrutiny and inspection; they guaranteed that no external disturbances would interrupt Gu Chang's Cultivation.

Although Gu Chang's strength meant he didn't need these arrangements, he was still the Emperor of the Shenwu Dynasty after all, and the officials below would not reduce these arrangements.

"Your Majesty, the barbarian beef is ready."

As soon as Gu Chang emerged from the discharge room, someone immediately brought over the prepared barbarian beef.

"Put it down!"

Gu Chang nodded and then began to eat large mouthfuls; while Cultivating with electricity was fast, the daily consumption was also quite large.

He consumed hundreds of kilograms of barbarian beef daily, otherwise, it wouldn't be enough to replenish the Qi and blood expended during Cultivation.

After eating his fill, Gu Chang found the artisan responsible for this hydroelectric power station.

"The next few days will be the final crucial period of my Cultivation, so no matter what happens, you must ensure the stability of the current, it absolutely cannot be suddenly cut off, and you must not come to disturb my Cultivation."

As his gaze swept over all the artisans present, they instantly shivered; although they didn't understand why Gu Chang said this, it was clear they all firmly remembered his words.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, we guarantee we will not delay your important matter!"

"That's right, there will absolutely be no problems!"

"..."

Immediately, they began to assure Gu Chang.

Gu Chang had nothing to say about the previous incidents, as they were indeed unaware at the time.

"Ma An, you also pay attention; when I Cultivate next, no matter what sounds you hear, do not let anyone break in, and certainly do not let anyone cut off the electricity supply!"

Then he separately found the Divine Martial Forbidden Army Commander and issued a separate order to him!

"Yes! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, your subordinate will defend Your Majesty with his life!"

Ma An agreed to Gu Chang's request without any hesitation; for him, Gu Chang's command was everything!

"Very good, with you watching, I am at ease!"

After explaining this matter, Gu Chang left; the Dao of civil and martial arts lies in balancing exertion and relaxation; he could not spend all his time on martial arts, as that might not bring benefits but would certainly bring many disadvantages.

Making Blood Talismans, contemplating the Martial Dao, and pondering how to proceed to the next Realm were the things Gu Chang spent the most time on daily.

Soon, three days had passed, and inside the discharge room, Gu Chang's Martial Dao Divine Paragon was once again shattered by the powerful current, and black True Qi permeated the entire discharge room.

"Hoo~ Haa~"

Gu Chang was clearly much more prepared this time; he immediately adjusted his state on the spot, then suddenly opened his mouth and absorbed this Martial Dao True Qi into his body.

"Boom! Rumble!"

Immediately afterward, his body instantly turned black, his physique began to swell, and his flesh, bones, Meridians, and internal organs all became increasingly tough and powerful under the effect of the Martial Dao True Qi!

"Ah!!!"

The pain was still heart-rending, piercing deep into his bone marrow, so unbearable that Gu Chang could only let out a mournful wail like a cry.

Outside the discharge room, all the artisans and guards shivered upon hearing this sound.

They almost instinctively wanted to cut off the current, but just as they were about to act, they were forcibly stopped.

The leading old artisan had a resolute expression, looking at the tightly shut door of the discharge room, and said to the others:

"Have you forgotten what His Majesty instructed the day before yesterday?"

The other artisans were also anxious, especially as His Majesty's screams from inside the discharge room became increasingly shrill, giving them a chilling sensation just by listening from outside.

"Old Gu!"

"It concerns His Majesty's life!"

"Precisely because it concerns His Majesty's life, we cannot act rashly!"

"We must obey the command and ensure the power supply; this electricity absolutely cannot be cut off!"

The old artisan spoke with conviction, allowing no room for others to question him.

In reality, this was something Gu Chang had specifically sought him out to instruct, though by this point, he already felt extremely tormented.

"Alas!"

"What should be done!"

"What should be done!"

"..."

The other artisans paced anxiously, feeling like ants on a hot stove.

"Gentlemen, please operate all equipment normally, and by no means disturb His Majesty's Cultivation; you must ensure everything remains as usual!"

At this moment, the Divine Martial Elite Soldiers protecting the surroundings also gathered, and their leader, Divine Martial Forbidden Army Commander Ma Wu, directly issued this order to all the artisans.

At the same time, elite and brave Divine Martial Forbidden Army soldiers arrived at the scene; they watched all the artisans, and the Cultivation room area, in particular, was tightly protected.

At this very moment, they absolutely could not allow anyone to interfere with Gu Chang's Breakthrough.

"Yes! We understand!"

"Why are you still standing there! Quickly check everything, absolutely do not disturb His Majesty's Cultivation!"

"Okay, okay, okay! We're going! We're going now!"

"..."

Seeing that the Divine Martial Emperor's most trusted Divine Martial Forbidden Army Commander had spoken, these artisans immediately calmed down and then promptly inspected every part of the entire hydroelectric power station according to their usual procedures, ensuring no sudden errors would occur.

After seeing them calm down, Divine Martial Forbidden Army Commander Ma Wu also came to guard outside the discharge room.

Although he appeared exceptionally calm on the surface, he was actually extremely nervous upon hearing Gu Chang's screams erupting from inside the discharge room.

However, his trust and admiration for Gu Chang had long surpassed his inner emotions.

Since Gu Chang had been able to foresee the current situation beforehand, then he would certainly be fine; therefore, he had to strictly carry out Gu Chang's orders!

Inside the discharge room, the heart-wrenching transformation gradually ended; Gu Chang felt as if he had walked past the gates of hell several times.

Amidst the immense pain, his mental will finally broke through some barrier, allowing his perception to extend beyond his body.

He discovered that the world before his eyes had undergone a tremendous change; everything became more real, more traceable, and he vaguely felt that if he could alter these things, it would surely produce unexpected effects.

But now he could do nothing but "see" and perceive, existing merely as an observer.

"Hoo~ Hoo~"

"Hahaha!"

But the next moment, he laughed out loud with joy, for he had now stepped into an entirely new Realm, a new Realm that no predecessor had ever reached!

Although his body, having just completed its transformation, was still very weak, its essence had already been elevated by a level.

The previous iron-like black color had faded, his skin was as smooth as jade and emitted a faint glow, his bones were harder than refined steel, and while they had a jade-like feel, they subtly gleamed with a silvery texture, and his tendons were like intertwined golden threads, even tougher and stronger.
