Devouring: Starting with an innate sacred body and Dao embryo

Chapter 72 One Year Later, Back to Space

Twenty days later, on a deserted stretch of the Pacific Ocean, the massive body of the Golden Horned Beast swam through the air, its four hooves flailing and its tail lashing out.

On its opposite side, Jiang Chen was fighting it hand-to-hand.

Its tiny body contained terrifying power and explosive force, and its punches were fierce and unparalleled, landing one after another on the body of the golden-horned behemoth.

Although the golden-horned behemoth fought back with all its might, it was inevitably suppressed and put at a disadvantage, suffering the bombardment of its iron-like fists.

With its scales shattered and blood and flesh splattering, the golden-horned behemoth roared in pain, halting its attack and raising its two front hooves to signal a stop.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen stopped his attack and asked, "Fourth brother, how is the body of this golden-horned beast adapting?"

Although Luo Feng possessed the Golden Horned Beast, his soul was different from the beast's, so he would need an adaptation period to become familiar with and master the beast's body.

"I have basically mastered this body."

With its wings spread wide and hooves outstretched, Luo Feng skillfully performed a variety of agile movements using the body of the Golden Horned Beast.

"However, even if I possess the Golden Horned Beast, I am still no match for you, Senior Brother."

Luo Feng shook his enormous head, looking somewhat depressed.

"Take your time. Just because you're not my match now doesn't mean you won't be in the future. Anything is possible. Maybe you'll become one of the strongest beings in the universe and stand at the very top."

Jiang Chen said it as if he were joking.

"One of the strongest beings in the universe!"

Luo Feng felt a surge of longing, then nodded firmly: "I will strive towards this goal!"

"It's good that you have this ambition."

Jiang Chen nodded and chuckled, then changed the subject: "How's the development of your first clone going?"

After Luo Feng possessed the Golden Horned Beast, he immediately used his innate secret technique, the clone technique, to regenerate his original Earth body.

However, it takes a certain amount of time to develop a clone.

"It has only just begun to develop, and it will probably take about a year for it to fully develop successfully."

Looking at the Earth clone being nurtured within his inner world, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel a little anxious, thinking it was all too slow.

With his current ferocious appearance as a golden-horned behemoth, he is simply not fit to be seen by anyone.

Therefore, under the guise of seclusion for cultivation, they could only inform their relatives, friends, and Xu Xin, and wait for the Earth's body to be reborn.

"A year isn't too long."

Jiang Chen laughed and said, "By the time your Earth clone is successfully formed, I'm afraid I should be able to attend your wedding."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, his face beaming with sweet joy: "Xu Xin promised me that we'll get married once I finish my seclusion."

"Congratulations! I'll have to prepare a big gift for you then."

Jiang Chen feigned distress, as if he was worrying about what gift to prepare.

"Don't just talk about me, senior brother. You still don't have a girlfriend. If you don't want to find one on Earth, are you going to look for one in the universe?"

Luo Feng joked.

"Finding someone from the universe wouldn't be bad either. Ideally, they'd fit my aesthetic and be incredibly powerful. Maybe I could even live off them."

Jiang Chen joked with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Luo Feng returned to the sea to rest, while Jiang Chen left and returned to the Kyoto base city.

After the battle with the Golden Horned Beast, Jiang Chen has become the undisputed strongest person on Earth, revered by all martial artists on the planet.

This also kept him incredibly busy, attending victory celebrations, participating in events held by various top powers, clearing out powerful monsters in the ocean, reclaiming lost human territory, and planning the future direction of humanity...

Of course, he didn't spend too much energy and time on these things, but only developed a general framework.

His main focus was on improving his own abilities.

His current improvement in strength can be divided into several directions.

One is his realm, which requires consuming various precious energy resources to improve.

Another aspect is the amplitude of his power exertion, which needs to be broken through through combat.

Another is to cultivate various secret techniques.

Huyan Bo left behind numerous and complex secret techniques.

Among these secret techniques, Jiang Chen mainly cultivates three of them.

These are Soul Imprint, Tower of the Void, and Stream of Ten Thousand Lines.

Soul imprints can unleash soul attacks and enslave others.

The Void Tower is a supreme secret technique for soul defense, even more precious than the Soul Imprint.

The Myriad Flows technique is a spatial flight technique, which is also extraordinary.

Since obtaining the inherited soul imprint, Jiang Chen has devoted some of his energy to cultivating these three secret techniques and has achieved some results.

He has already cultivated the Myriad Swords Soul Seal, and is about to condense the Enslavement Soul Seal.

The Void Tower has successfully completed the first level of cultivation and is now attempting to reach the second level.

As for the Myriad Flow, although Jiang Chen has not yet mastered it, he has found the key. After a few more years of study, he will be able to reach the One Flow realm.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

By then, Jiang Chen will have been able to grasp the basics of spatial laws.

This made Jiang Chen sigh, realizing how incredibly powerful comprehension was in comprehending secret techniques and fundamental laws.

And this is only a tenfold increase in comprehension; if one breaks through to the Eternal Star level, the increase in comprehension will reach one hundredfold.

The insights gained into secret techniques and fundamental laws will likely be beyond imagination.

Time always flies when you're cultivating.

More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the secret chamber, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged, his primal force and mental power intertwining, both reaching the sixth level of the planetary realm.

The Water Domain and Thunder Domain are faintly visible, indicating that they have already broken through to the seventh level.

Meanwhile, within Jiang Chen's sea of ​​consciousness, two layers of the Void Tower were exquisite and profound, constantly protecting his soul.

Within the solidified Myriad Swords Soul Seal, the Enslavement Soul Seal has been successfully formed.

This is the result of Jiang Chen's cultivation over the past year; his cultivation level has increased from the fourth level of the Planetary Realm to the sixth level.

The Water Domain and Thunder Domain have been upgraded from the fifth level to the seventh level.

Having cultivated the Void Tower to the second level, the Soul Enslavement Imprint has also been successfully condensed.

"Jiang Chen! Hong, Thor, and Luo Feng are already waiting for you. They can't wait to get to the universe!"

Babata urged.

"Okay, tell them to wait a moment, I'll be there soon."

Jiang Chen got up and walked out of the secret room.

Outside, Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng had already arrived. Upon seeing Jiang Chen emerge, they all stepped forward.

"Third brother, everything is ready, we should set off now!" Hong said.

"Yes, after more than a year of waiting, we're finally leaving today!" Thor laughed.

"If it weren't for my seclusion, my eldest and second brothers would probably be in the universe by now."

Luo Feng, who had already condensed into an Earth-like body, couldn't help but show a hint of apology.

Several months ago, he finally succeeded in conceiving in his original body, and then married Xu Xin. He has been busy ever since, and has finally found some time to conceive.

"Fourth brother, you're being too polite. We can go to the universe sooner or later. It's all there anyway, we can't escape it," Thor comforted him.

"Now that everything is ready, let's go."

Jiang Chen led Luo Feng and the other two to the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship, and under Babata's control, they flew into space.
