The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 762 Martial Arts Celestial Being, Divine Soul Power (Seeking Monthly Tickets~)

hum~
The Azure Flame Command Flags fluttered in the wind, and a vortex of primordial energy clouds appeared out of thin air above Chen Ping'an.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth may seem ethereal, but it truly exists.

There are mineral veins that condense primordial energy, which is stored within crystals and is called primordial crystal.

The primordial energy within the primordial crystal is extremely thin, capable of nourishing internal energy and true essence, but having little effect on spirituality. It offers no benefit to cultivation. Yet, at this moment, this cloud formation is over a mile in size.

If Chen Ping'an hadn't already placed a barrier to isolate the area, this remote place would likely have caused quite a stir.

Although there are no changes in celestial phenomena when a Celestial being breaks through a realm, the fluctuations generated by this breakthrough are naturally quite different from those of ordinary realms.

Martial arts masters can draw upon the power of heaven and earth; upon reaching this level, the world itself undergoes transformation.

These primordial energy tides nourish the body and provide the greatest assistance when breaking through to a higher realm.

This is a breakthrough in phenomena!

Once this kind of phenomenon is completely digested, one's realm can be considered initially stable. Although it is not a permanent solution, it will not cause instability in one's realm due to individual reasons.

Such phenomena are described in some ancient texts as a gift from heaven and earth.

"A sign of divine intervention!"

Chen Ping'an closed his eyes and sat quietly, contemplating himself.

After entering the realm of celestial beings, the space within the brow and heart altar underwent earth-shattering changes.

The space expanded, and looking around, there was a sense of emptiness. Like the beginning of chaos, it stretched out in all directions. Above the mind's eye, a vortex swirled, faintly glowing, carrying a strange, twisting power.

It was a special force field that made people feel disoriented and disoriented, giving them a sense of being lost in a trance.

The source of the soul.

The true core of martial arts, the Heavenly Man, resides in the central hub of the spiritual platform. He borrows the power of heaven from his divine soul, achieving the unity of heaven and man.

At this moment, within the source of his divine soul, constant vibrations and changes were occurring, subtly distorting the spiritual platform space. Although Chen Ping'an had only just broken through to the next realm, the divine soul power permeating the area showed no signs of thinness; every strand exuded unparalleled purity. The vibrations of his divine soul were filled with boundless power.

With nine spiritual patterns as its foundation, achieving oneness with heaven and man, and ascending to the Celestial Realm, such a foundation is naturally incomparably pure. Although the specific classification of the foundation is unknown, judging from Chen Ping'an's judgment, this purity is definitely far superior to that of ordinary Celestials.

As for whether he could be above the pure Dao foundation and reach the perfect level, he couldn't judge.

but
Chen Ping'an's mind was as clear as a mirror, allowing him to gain insight into himself.

hum~
In a flash of inspiration, a jade bottle appeared before him, its surface crystal clear, revealing a strange liquid flowing within.

The liquid inside the bottle was black and white, seemingly blending together yet clearly distinct.

Rare and precious item, Yin-Yang Dew!

Yin-Yang Dew can be used to purify the soul and improve its quality, making it an extremely rare and valuable spiritual item.

For the pseudo-celestial beings, it is an even greater creation that allows them to continue their path.

Its value is extremely high, even immeasurable.

Chen Ping'an obtained this item from the Youtan Cave, along with Condensed Jade Liquid and Shangqing Pill.

He gave the Crystal Jade Liquid to Gu Qingchan, but he still keeps the Shangqing Pill on his person.

"Let me see where your limits are."

Chen Ping'an focused his divine light, and the Yin-Yang Dew inside the bottle slowly entered his mouth.

Yin-Yang Dew can be swallowed, using the spirit as a guide to directly enter the spiritual platform and benefit the source of the spirit.

As soon as the Yin-Yang Dew entered his mouth, Chen Ping'an's body underwent rapid changes. The black and white liquid emitted divine light and pure energy, entering his mind and spirit.

The source of the soul, like an ancient, swirling vortex, vibrates with the power of the soul. As the divine light and pure energy transformed from the Yin-Yang dew appear, the source of the soul is also undergoing a transformation.

Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere above constantly changed as Chen Ping'an's realm progressed. His spiritual source within his spiritual platform also gradually transformed.

With the enhancement of Yin-Yang Dew, it even took on a black and white connotation.

With nine spiritual patterns, he broke through the barrier and ascended to the realm of heaven and man. The source of his divine soul within Chen Ping'an's spiritual platform was already outstanding, far surpassing the pure essence.

Now, with the enhancement of Yin-Yang Dew, it has reached a new level of perfection, truly achieving a state of perfection.

Furthermore, with the enhancement from the Yin-Yang Dew, his source of divine soul underwent a slight transformation. Although it was only a minor change, for Chen Ping'an, it meant that his divine soul power had received an additional boost.

Compared to ordinary divine soul power, Chen Ping'an's divine soul is different in quality, and the divine soul power he triggers also has a slight assimilation and devouring effect.

Although this effect is only slight, it is an extra benefit for Chen Ping'an.

This boost can change according to his will; he can hide it normally or unleash it at full power.

"The meaning of black and white?" Chen Ping'an's mind focused slightly, his gaze becoming more reserved: "Interesting."

Chen Ping'an did not use up all of the Yin-Yang Dew he took out; he only used half of it before the source of his divine soul within his spiritual platform could not advance any further.

It is clear that he was already extremely close to perfection before, and may even have been perfect in his own right. Now, after consuming the Yin-Yang Dew, he has only added a little bit of mystical change to this level of perfection.

Such miraculous transformations usually only occur in those extraordinary cultivators with special physiques and unique cultivation techniques.

The possibility of it happening is extremely slim.

To reach the realm of martial arts prowess is to be among the best of the best of the grandmasters. A large portion of these achieve only a pseudo-prowess, and among those who truly attain prowess, a significant portion merely demonstrate mediocre abilities. Their souls lack even the quality of being truly refined, let alone possessing divine power.

The chances of actually reaching that stage are extremely slim to the point of being rare.

However, the empire's territory is vast and boundless, like the universe itself, so such extraordinary talents may well emerge. And with the power of time and the accumulation of generations, ultimately, a few such beings will appear.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg beneath the grand curtain of a dynasty. The true foundation, scale, and grandeur of a dynasty are difficult for outsiders to fathom.

Leaving aside other matters, such as the Hidden Dragon Ranking, where geniuses compete and stars shine, there has always been a tradition that those of royal blood or military elites are excluded from the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

This matter concerns the limitations of standardized systems, the constraints of which are obvious. But what about those limitations that are not yet apparent?

The dynasty spanned four borders, its territory vast, and heroes from all over the world emerged in endless succession, like carp crossing a river.

The four realms of Moti, with the northern realm alone, can be called the four directions of the universe. There is the Snow God Palace that has existed for thousands of years, the vast and boundless North Sea, the Black Nether Mountain Range where monsters thrive, and the territories of dozens of states that stretch across the land.

The place where he was located was a territory under the jurisdiction of the Northern Border, which covered seventeen states. Under the influence of the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion, it was called the Bi Cang Territory.

However, no matter how vast the territory of the North is or how complex the forces are, it does not diminish the rarity of martial arts masters.

Achieving the status of a martial arts master would make one a renowned and unparalleled expert in the Northern Territory, or even in any part of the dynasty. Such experts often remain hidden behind the scenes, serving as the core of the power struggles among various factions. Their strategic deterrence, built on profound foundations, is never revealed to the world.

To the world's inhabitants, a Grandmaster of Martial Arts is already considered the pinnacle of combat power. Anything beyond that is beyond their comprehension. And such matters need not be known to them.

The celestial beings are those who stand atop the clouds, overlooking the world. Since they reside in the clouds, their form and appearance are unknown to outsiders.

Among the celestial beings, there are also different ranks, but the specific details are not visible to ordinary people. Only truly powerful and influential forces with a long history will have detailed analyses and records.

Information about any martial arts master is invaluable. In particular, information containing detailed details about main combat techniques, secret arts, and protective artifacts is considered a closely guarded secret by all parties, and it is no exaggeration to call it strategic intelligence.

Aside from a few individuals with drastically different personalities, no martial arts master would easily reveal their personal information. Superficial information is fine; at most, it might be a summary of their techniques or a simple demonstration of their combat strength. But delving deeper into their information would likely infringe upon the true interests of many masters.

Especially the extremely precise power of those secret techniques, their explosive methods, protective trump cards, and some strange and unique secret techniques. This kind of information is a closely guarded secret among individuals.

In life-or-death battles, the true means of survival are not easily known to outsiders.

If someone is deliberately targeting us and has made preparations in advance, wouldn't that put the celestial beings at a disadvantage?

Unlike martial arts grandmasters, the methods of martial arts celestial beings are extremely complex and difficult to describe, far beyond what conventional combat power can match.

Correspondingly, the combat power of a Martial Dao Celestial is equally terrifying. If a Martial Dao Celestial were to so desire, they could completely destroy a city under the influence of others at the same level.

It can't be described as a means of moving mountains and filling seas, but it can be said that the great power comes from within itself.

However, once they reach the Celestial Realm, it's rare for them to truly disregard life and death and fight with all their might. Even when they do fight, it's mostly a contest of strength and a gamble, rarely a fight to the death. Chen Ping'an was already quite aware of this before.

However, one cannot generalize. Such information may have been recorded because he was not at a high enough level at the time and had not yet truly come into contact with the Celestial Beings.

Martial arts masters, though rarely seen in the world, will still fight fiercely when it comes to the core interests of power struggles. If it involves opportunities, spiritual treasures, secret realms, or caves, it's hard to say whether they will fight to the death.

For those at lower levels, the Martial Dao Celestial Being is like a celestial palace, completely inaccessible to ordinary mortals. Since they cannot even come into contact with them, those below have no idea what the lives of these celestial beings are like, or what their social circles are like.

People in the public can have many criticisms of grandmasters, or even great grandmasters, and as long as they don't escalate the matter, most people won't care. But if it involves a celestial being, even if it's just some gossip, then there's a very high chance they'll risk their lives.

Such things are often depicted in the amusing anecdotes of the Purple-Eyed Demon Lord's life.

With the Purple-Eyed Demon Lord dead and his cultivation extinguished, coupled with the established political climate at the dynasty level, discussions about him are often filled with jokes and speculations. However, when it comes to another martial arts master who may still be alive, no one dares to engage in any truly in-depth conversation.

Previously, some people, in pursuit of traffic and to attract attention, released strange versions inspired by the story of the Purple-Eyed Demon Lord, who overthrew his superior and forcefully conquered a celestial female ruler.

Shortly after the announcement, the person who made the announcement and the forces behind them disappeared without a trace.

The majesty of Heaven and Man cannot be disrespected.

The painful lessons of the past are still fresh in everyone's mind, and no one wants to tarnish their reputation.

Chen Ping'an didn't know whether Celestials were dignified or not. Previously, his circle of friends was limited, and he hadn't had much contact with Celestials, let alone dared to insult their dignity.

Now that he has reached the realm of celestial beings and achieved the status of a martial arts master, he no longer has such feelings.

Speaking of
Not long ago, he had indeed thoroughly humiliated a celestial being. Although it was a coincidence, not of his own volition, the outcome clearly showed that it was just that.

Of course, he also paid an extremely heavy price for his overconfidence.

The injury on my left shoulder that has yet to heal is the best proof of this.

Chen Ping'an focused his mind and spirit, consolidating the Celestial Realm he had just entered after breaking through the barrier.

He had only heard about the Martial Dao Celestials before, but now that he had actually set foot in it, he had a different feeling.

This information is corroborated by previous information, and we continue to accumulate our findings.

His brow and spirit platform, the source of his soul, appear vast, but their core is like a grain of rice, pure and refined, the very source of his soul.

This is the Realm of Pivotal Light.

The Martial Arts Celestial Realm has four realms. The initial realm of the Celestial Realm, or the first realm of the Celestial Realm, can be called the Pivot Light Realm.

Upon entering this realm, the source of one's soul is like the light of a grain of rice, its radiance faintly visible, allowing one to begin to hear the sounds of heaven and earth.

However, the source of the soul, though as small as a grain of rice, can be manifested outwardly when activated, its power is immense and its might unfathomable.

Generally speaking, a martial arts master, whose soul is shaken, can borrow the power of heaven and travel a distance of about a mile.

The range of combat power can extend for several miles. If the technique is special, or if one uses a powerful treasure or secret technique, the range of combat power can be further increased.

Reality isn't a biographical novel; it doesn't feature so many fantastical and mysterious displays of combat power. While the scope of combat might seem small—several miles—in reality, such battles could cause mountains to collapse, rivers to overflow, and other natural forces to tremble.

Ordinary people who witness this would likely be shaken to their core and overwhelmed with awe. If a figure were to be present amidst such immense power, they would feel as if a celestial being had descended upon the world, and even that would fall far short of description.

The power of combat can extend for miles, but this doesn't mean that the power of combat between celestial beings can only affect a radius of a few miles. You must know that in the midst of battle, martial arts celestial beings can move.

In the blink of an eye, they can soar through the sky. In the heat of battle, a war between celestial beings and humans covering an area of ​​tens or hundreds of miles is commonplace. If the battle becomes a long and drawn-out affair, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles is also quite normal.

Such a sight could not be described without the mighty power of nature!
Unlike martial arts grandmasters, martial arts celestial beings are truly capable of flying. It's not about being lifted up by true energy, but rather genuine flight in the true sense of the word.

Within the spiritual platform, the soul trembled, and an invisible pulling force counteracted the sinking of the earth.

Guided by the divine soul and borrowing the power of heaven, this kind of flight is not a mere skimming, but true flight in the real sense.

Not only does it have a longer battery life, but its speed is also far superior to that of a Grandmaster!

With a single thought, one can escape to the mountains and forests; with another, one can soar through the sky. In that single thought, one suddenly feels the vastness of the world.

Such unrestrained freedom is truly exhilarating.

With a lifespan of a thousand years and immense power, he is a true practitioner standing at the pinnacle in any place.

A celestial being at the height of martial arts, with every gesture and movement, exudes boundless power, dominating all directions like a blazing sun.

However, even among martial arts masters, there are differences in strength.

Chen Ping'an had previously inquired about this information, and although it was not detailed enough, it could still be used as a reference.

The gap between martial arts masters and those at the highest levels is immense. The difficulty of overcoming this barrier is extremely high. Even the most exceptional geniuses at the very top find it incredibly difficult, unless they possess some special physique or an extraordinary and powerful technique.

It's unrealistic to think you can fight beyond your level just by relying on your protective treasures.

Those who can cultivate to this level are all extraordinary talents, possessing astonishing abilities, and have endured countless battles and bloodshed. Given the differences in cultivation levels, there are too many factors that need to be overcome to achieve a breakthrough across realms.

The difficulty level is self-evident.

According to the information Chen Ping'an had previously gathered, within the four realms of Celestial Beings, there was little precise distinction in combat strength among Celestial Beings at the same level. At most, there were preliminary impressions circulating, which were clearly inaccurate to use as a standard for judging combat strength. Celestial Beings possessed a complex array of methods, various secret techniques, and countless trump cards; without a true life-or-death battle, no one could know their opponent's true limits!
Among the celestial beings, there are many cunning and treacherous individuals who appear timid but are ruthless when it comes to fighting. There are also those who practice the art of sorcery, each with a kind and benevolent appearance but a multitude of hidden methods.

They seem easy to mess with and easy to bully, but once you actually start fighting, you'll know what a tough nut to crack is!
Among the celestial beings, those with weak reputations may not necessarily be weak in strength. But what is certain is that those who can make a name for themselves and earn the respect of all sides are mostly formidable figures.

Like the former patriarch of the Gu family, Gu Tianren. Alone with his sword, he guarded the Azure Dragon, causing various forces to dare not touch the Azure Dragon's interests.

Among beings of the same realm, one can distinguish between superior and inferior, but it is virtually impossible to determine life and death.

Compared to martial arts grandmasters, celestial beings have more complex life-saving trump cards, and their combat methods are also extremely complicated. They will not fall into an extremely passive situation because of a single type of counter.

Their long lifespans allow them to handle certain situations with greater composure.

Through long-term accumulation, they gradually made up for their shortcomings, making their inherent weakness of self-control less noticeable. Even if they couldn't solve the problem, they could address it from other angles.

Between the celestial beings and humans, life and death are indistinguishable. However, under certain specific circumstances, such events, though rare, can still occur.

For example, some newly ascended Celestials have shallow foundations and have not been in the Celestial realm for long, so their accumulation is insufficient. If they encounter some well-established and experienced Celestials, under various factors, it is still possible for their lives to be in danger.

In addition, there are certain geographical factors, such as secret and dangerous places, cave ruins, etc. If you fall into a chaotic battle under complex factors, you may also die if you are unlucky.

However, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to distinguish between life and death among beings of the same realm. However, while life and death may be indistinguishable, one can still determine superiority or inferiority.

While the overall foundation and protective methods are difficult to assess, cultivation level can still serve as an important reference factor.

Within the realm of Heaven and Man, there are those who have just entered this realm, those who have been immersed in it for a long time and have cultivated for many years, and those who have reached perfection and are only one step away from the second realm of Heaven and Man.

Within the same realm of Heaven and Man, cultivation levels vary, but the differences between them are not as significant as traditionally understood. If the protective artifacts are substantial enough, one can certainly contend with them. Elders and Venerables from powerful factions can even achieve victory against overwhelming odds by relying on purer divine soul power, more powerful protective treasures, and more formidable cultivation techniques.

Based on Chen Ping'an's limited understanding, in the martial arts realm, combat strength can be roughly divided into ordinary and veteran based on the same level.

"I wonder what level of combat power I possess now?"

Chen Ping'an sat cross-legged, quietly experiencing the changes within himself, digesting the atmospheric phenomena, and stabilizing his own realm.

As his realm stabilized, the myriad insights he had gained in the past lingered in his mind. Whether it was because he had just reached this realm or because the gifts of heaven and earth had not yet faded, some of the problems and shackles that had troubled him in the past seemed to melt away like spring snow.

At this moment, Chen Ping'an's mind was clear and lucid, like a mirror.

Various ideas, like shooting stars streaking across the dark night, became clearer and clearer in his mind, and the patterns and textures became more and more concrete. A profound and exquisitely drawn scroll slowly unfolded before him.

"Seven Absolute Divine Skills, Blood Restriction of Ten Thousand Demons." Chen Ping'an murmured, his voice booming like a bell, shaking the void.

Use yourself as a crucible to melt your spiritual experiences and insights, discarding the dross and keeping the essence, and bringing forth new ideas.
To create a new path of spiritual practice!

boom!
An atmosphere descends, enveloping you.

Chen Ping'an sat with his eyes closed, his expression profound, like a celestial being with his eyes closed.

　I'll update a little later tomorrow, probably in the afternoon.
