People are in high martial arts, the system lives in fantasy

Using his own abilities, Su Bei found a place in the valley with the highest concentration of energy and slowly sat down.

At this moment, his energy and spirit had already reached their peak.

Within his body, true essence surged wildly like a mighty river, expanding the breadth of his inner universe in the darkness.

Rumble!
Above the celestial sphere, solar energy converges like flowing gold. Wherever the energy passes, it's like soldiers conquering new territories, and golden knights march in formation. Wherever their spears point, the inner universe becomes as bright as day.

Three towering gates, reaching to the heavens and the earth, sit within the inner universe, like the backbone supporting this world.

Above the first gate, the profound meaning of the physical body carried an aura of breaking through shackles;
Above the second door, genes flickered, carrying the joy brought by evolution;
The third gate was filled with qi and blood, carrying a profound sense of energy advancement.

Each secret door represents a physical constraint and a hidden treasure; once opened, it opens up another world.

At this moment, all three doors were faintly tinged with a warm golden color, exuding a sense of light and sunshine. They were like the underlying code rooted deep in the genes of northern Jiangsu, changing accordingly with each version update.

Rumble!
With Su Bei releasing his absorption, the solar energy in Yanggu rushed into his body, and the celestial sphere instantly transformed it into solar essence, adding another part to the energy in the inner universe.

And after a long time.

In the vast passageway, which resembles a riverbed, and like a dam stopping the river from flowing forward, a magnificent and solemn gate, seemingly imbued with the principles of nature, stands between heaven and earth.

Patterns appeared on the door, like reliefs sculpted by heaven and earth. Flowers and plants grew naturally, and beasts ran about. The invisible wind was manifested in the door. At the very center of the door, a magnificent sun pattern floated on it, as if everything revolved around the sun, shining with light.

It is the fourth secret gate—the gate of the spiritual aperture!
It connects the martial artist with nature. Once opened, the martial artist can begin to utilize the power of nature, and at this point, one can be considered extraordinary.

The surging river of true essence within the inner universe, like a real long river, relentlessly rushed towards this gate.

buzzing...

The door trembled slightly, as if it might be forced open at any moment!
If an ordinary person could see this from within, they would probably be extremely shocked. The more one progresses through the secret gate, the more difficult it becomes to open. Ordinary martial artists need to be fully prepared and continue for several days to break through to a higher realm. They also need to pay attention to the consumption of true essence and take gene potions to maintain their strength in order to avoid failure at the last moment.

But Su Bei's foundation is so solid that even a hundred third-tier martial artists combined might not be able to match him alone. If even he cannot break through, then probably no one at the same level can.

The greatest obstacle to his spiritual attainment was not opening the door to the secret realm.

Boom boom boom!
After an unknown amount of time, Su Bei suddenly opened his eyes.

On the crimson rock face, the Sunstone veins pulsate slightly like blood vessels.

He was sitting cross-legged by the hot spring pool closest to the main mine, his face reflected in the water—a face favored by the sunlight, with tiny golden rays seeping from his pores, a sign of excess energy overflowing from his body.

"It went even more smoothly than expected."

He lightly touched the water's surface, and the instant the ripples spread, the sunstone fragments deposited at the bottom of the pool suddenly lit up. These minerals, which had been immersed in the sun's energy for years, now gathered in his palm as if paying homage to a king.

This is a sign that the "Great Sun Emperor's Body Technique" has reached its peak. What is considered a top-tier technique in the fantasy world has shown an even more terrifying adaptability in this world—it is devouring the surrounding solar energy in a predatory manner.

"The Fourth Secret Gate, open!"

Su Bei suddenly clenched his fist, and a booming sound like a great bell resounded from within his body.

Within the inner universe, the River of True Essence roared its final roar. Amidst the surging waves, the secret gate that reached the heavens and the earth suddenly opened a crack, and then poured forth for thousands of miles until it was completely opened!

A surge of immense joy welled up within me.

It is a joy that arises naturally from the body's evolution, like a seed that has been planted for months and finally blossoms and bears fruit; it is an emotion imprinted deep within the genes of life.

Su Bei felt his body suddenly become much lighter. The numerical range that had reached its limit was once again stretched and increased, as if he had taken off a heavy backpack and could run at full speed again.

From that fourth gate, an evolutionary energy surged forth, penetrating Su Bei's limbs and bones, flowing into his blood, bones, meridians, and billions of gene particles.

In every unknowable and inaudible corner, the sounds of reproduction, division, aggregation, crackling, and cheering resounded, as if celebrating the subtle occurrence of a brand new evolution.

An invisible spatial ripple followed, surging out of his body.

The clouds above the valley were torn apart by an invisible force, and a pillar of sunlight, tens of meters in diameter, fell straight down, enveloping Su Bei entirely.

Several martial artists who were cultivating in the distance opened their eyes at the same time, staring in astonishment at this strange phenomenon.

"Is someone breaking through to the Grandmaster realm?"

"No, this energy fluctuation sounds more like the sensations of enlightenment."

"Holy crap, is this for real? Opening a spiritual aperture can cause such a huge commotion?"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, their face showing disbelief.

With such a commotion, people would believe it if they heard that a grandmaster was practicing here.

However, the martial artists who were granted permission to enter Yanggu Valley were all quite knowledgeable, regardless of their character or academic performance. So even though they were extremely curious, no one dared to be reckless and insist on going to see it.

Each martial artist has their own secrets in their cultivation; if they were to clash, it might lead to a fight to the death. And at this moment, at the center of the pillar of light...

Su Bei had already taken out several of the Five Elements Treasures needed for the Spirit Aperture, and he also took out the Sun Crystal that he had been keeping all along. Under the impetus of some kind of power, the hard treasures turned into spiritual liquid, solidified and combined together to form a bright sphere that released a gentle aura like the rising sun.

He slowly activated the "Great Sun Emperor Body Technique," and as soon as he touched the sphere, it was as if he was absorbed into his body through his pores.

next moment.

On Su Bei's spine, a spiritual aperture slowly emerged, resembling a miniature sun.

The acupoints on the spine are like the rising sun, intense yet not scorching, instead exuding a gentle vitality.

As this spiritual aperture appeared, the Great Sun Emperor Body Technique seemed to be condensed to its extreme in an instant, and a tremendous suction force suddenly surged out.

“Crack—”

Suddenly, the sound of crystals shattering came from the Sunstone veins deep in the valley. The solar essence that had been dormant in the earth's veins was now surging towards the pillar of light like rivers flowing into the sea.

The vein-like mineral veins on the rock wall dimmed at a visible speed, while the spiritual apertures on Su Bei's spine became increasingly brilliant, and fine golden patterns gradually appeared on the surface—if you looked closely, the patterns on them were somewhat similar to the celestial sphere of the inner universe!

Some people noticed that their swords were trembling in their sheaths, with fragments of sunstone embedded in the blade constantly emitting points of light; even more, martial artists who cultivated fire-attribute techniques were surprised to find that the true energy in their dantian was uncontrollably tilting slightly towards the pillar of light.

"This is... the resonance of heaven and earth?" An elderly man with white hair pressed his trembling right hand tightly, his cloudy pupils reflecting the towering pillar of light. "Legend has it that only when a perfect spiritual aperture appears in the world will this phenomenon occur!"

Su Bei could clearly feel that his connection with the energy between heaven and earth had suddenly become several times stronger—when the wind brushed against his skin, he could “hear” the faint energy pulse contained in the airflow; the spring water seeping from the cracks in the rock wall, as he perceived it, flowed with the natural power of water like veins.

The solar energy from the pillar of light poured into the miniature sun, and within a very short time, Su Bei sensed that the energy within his spiritual aperture was nearing saturation.

The miniature sun slowly rotated on his spine, each rotation drawing in the surrounding energy of heaven and earth to form a vortex, causing even the pores on his body to open up, creating a wondrous resonance with nature as he breathed in and out.

"This is the mystery of the Spirit Aperture Gate..." he murmured, raising his fingertips slightly. A wisp of golden true essence surged from the Spirit Aperture, condensing into a half-illusory, half-solid flame in his palm. The flame was not purely burning, but rather interwoven with countless energy runes as fine as hair, faintly resonating with the pillar of sunlight above Yangyang Valley.

This is more like an application of natural energy.

Gently fling it out, the fleeting energy, upon contact with the ground, exploded like a bomb, creating a small crater two or three meters in diameter.

But this is far from the limit.

At the second vertebra of the spine, another miniature sun was formed.

Then, the third, fourth, fifth...

"I see."

Su Bei introspectively observed the dramatic changes within his body. At the very bottom of his spine, a ninth, newly formed miniature sun was taking shape, connecting with the previous eight to form a perfect nine-star structure.

This is the Nine Luminaries Sacred Yang Mysterious Aperture cultivated through the Great Sun Emperor's Body Technique!

Faintly, Su Bei could even sense that these nine miniature suns were forming a subtle connection with the celestial sphere within his body, as if they were interconnected.

Nine is the ultimate number, and it seems to subtly align with the Great Dao.

Although the number of spiritual apertures that can be opened is the same as that of ordinary super-grade gene methods, there are huge differences between the spiritual apertures.

At this moment, the pillar of light in the sky was gradually fading.

When the last bit of energy was completely absorbed, the pillar of light that enveloped the valley suddenly collapsed into a ball of light the size of a fist, which slowly sank into Su Bei's spiritual aperture in his palm.

In an instant, golden rays of light burst forth from every pore of his body, and nine miniature sun-like spiritual apertures behind him were arranged in a fan shape, making him appear like a god.

After a long while, the golden glow was finally drawn back into Su Bei's body.

"So this is the interaction between heaven and man."

Su Bei looked down at his hands, and his spiritual aperture seemed to have transformed into a completely new sensory organ, connecting him closely with nature.

At this moment, he could clearly sense the dew rolling on a leaf a hundred miles away, and hear the muffled sound of magma churning three hundred meters underground.

The circulation channel formed by the spinal acupoints and the energy of heaven and earth makes every inch of his skin a medium for absorbing energy.

The mineral veins within a hundred meters of the seat were now completely transformed into ordinary rocks, and Su Bei simply raised his hand, and his fingertips condensed solar true fire that was a hundred times purer than before.

He suddenly remembered the maxim on the last page of the "Great Sun Emperor's Body Instructions":

"Those who transform into the great sun, their every move exudes divine power."

Six of the nine spiritual apertures have been completely filled, and upon entering the fourth rank, one will reach the mid-stage realm.

Within the fourth tier, he is already invincible. (End of Chapter)
