Chapter 7: Stop, Wuchen, Extreme Blood Power

"Everything?"

[Response: As long as the host has enough Tianjiao Points, anything can be exchanged. This includes, but is not limited to, secret arts, divine abilities, cultivation techniques, physiques, divine weapons...]

"How do I earn Tianjiao Points?"

[Response: Ten years from now, the Tianjiao List will descend, and the host can earn points through it.]

"Ten years..."

Chu Wuchen found the wait lengthy and couldn't help but ask, "Then why are you here so early? Why not come ten years later?"

System: ...

[I'm on standby]

However, the Tianjiao List...

...

A few days later, the Ninth Ancestor reappeared.

Boom!

His sudden arrival shook the void, but there was no oppressive pressure. In front of Chu Wuchen, the Ninth Ancestor was always gentle. He adored this child immensely.

Seeing Chu Wuchen in disarray, he even bent down to tidy the child's clothes.

"Wuchen, you are already two years old. It's time to start cultivating."

The Ninth Ancestor said.

"Okay."

Chu Wuchen nodded earnestly.

With his delicate, porcelain-doll-like appearance, this serious nod made him look even more adorable, endearing him further to the Ninth Ancestor.

Of course, this was due to his age and appearance. Chu Wuchen had no desire to be cute.

"Haha, little Wuchen is so obedient."

The Ninth Ancestor laughed heartily.

"Come, let's start your cultivation."

He said, taking Chu Wuchen's small hand and disappearing from the palace.

To the Ninth Ancestor, the most important thing now was to instill a strong Dao heart in Chu Wuchen.

A heart of invincibility.

A heart that is steadfast and resilient.

Only with such a heart could his extraordinary talent fully manifest, ensuring it wasn't wasted or squandered like a prodigy left untended.

The Ninth Ancestor had high hopes for Chu Wuchen.

He was a prime candidate, a top-tier immortal seedling, who had to be nurtured to his full potential.

Of course, this wasn't entirely necessary.

Chu Wuchen wasn't truly a two-year-old child who understood nothing. On the contrary, having struggled and risen through two lifetimes, his mind was exceptionally resilient. He also possessed extraordinary wisdom.

Moreover, he understood a fundamental truth:

A man's true confidence, his strongest foundation, always stems from his own strength.

This principle held true in any world.

Only the definitions of strength varied under different rules and laws.

...

Soon, they arrived at an ancient cave. Inside, it was a world of its own. The land seemed like a miniature universe.

This place was enveloped in immortal mist, filled with a mystical aura.

The atmosphere was extraordinary.

Noble and mysterious, it felt like a place where true immortals might have lived.

Boom!

Two figures descended from the sky.

The Ninth Ancestor held Chu Wuchen's small hand, landing beside a celestial pool.

"Wuchen, you will cultivate here."

The Ninth Ancestor pointed to the pool.

The pool wasn't large, only about ten meters in diameter, but its aura was exceptional.

The celestial liquid was crystal clear, imbued with laws.

Each particle seemed like a miniature world.

The immortal energy was extremely dense.

It seemed like true dragons swam, phoenixes soared, and qilins trod on auspicious clouds...

"I refined this pool of celestial liquid myself, using dozens of immortal medicines."

The Ninth Ancestor said.

For a being of his stature to personally refine such a pool, using dozens of immortal medicines, showed its incredible value.

Chu Wuchen's eyes sparkled, looking at the pool as if he were a little miser who had discovered a priceless treasure.

His gaze was full of greed and longing.

At this moment, he could even feel his body quivering with excitement.

This pool of celestial liquid was extraordinary.

For an ordinary being, it would induce a profound transformation.

Even for someone as exceptional as him, it was a tremendous fortune.

"Haha!"

The Ninth Ancestor laughed, stroking his beard.

He was very pleased with Chu Wuchen's expression. It gave him a sense of achievement and, in a way, reflected Chu Wuchen's desire for power.

This was precisely what he wanted to see.

"Wuchen, start your cultivation."

"Mmm."

Chu Wuchen nodded obediently, then, taking short steps, leaped into the pool.

Splash!

Celestial liquid splashed everywhere.

The liquid flew up but didn't spill around; instead, it was drawn back into the pool by a force.

This was naturally the Ninth Ancestor's doing, further demonstrating the pool's preciousness. Even he didn't want to waste any of it.

In fact, he intended to use it himself.

Boom!

As soon as he entered the pool, a sound resonated from Chu Wuchen's body. He began to glow, his flesh and blood radiant.

It was as if he were burning, like a vast furnace of heaven and earth.

He continuously absorbed and refined the celestial liquid.

His Supreme Bone, Double Pupil, and Immortal Blood...

Were all frantically absorbing.

Countless runes emerged, swallowing the liquid like a whale.

These components needed to grow with Chu Wuchen, requiring immense power for nourishment and awakening.

At this moment, the celestial liquid was perfect.

Boom!

The sound grew louder.

Chu Wuchen's physical strength was visibly increasing.

His blood energy surged, vast as an ocean, constantly enhancing.

His strength...

Continued to approach 100,000 jin.

This sight left the Ninth Ancestor astonished.

This child...

His speed was terrifying.

On the other hand, it also highlighted Chu Wuchen's remarkable physique. No ordinary being could absorb and endure such immense power in a short time.

Even most prodigies couldn't achieve this!

However, the Ninth Ancestor's astonishment quickly turned to joy. Chu Wuchen's talent was even more extraordinary than he had imagined.

"Wuchen, stop absorbing."

Finally, the Ninth Ancestor spoke.

He had plans for the pool's liquid himself. He only let Chu Wuchen use it first out of deep affection, believing the child wouldn't need much. But now, Chu Wuchen had absorbed most of it, far exceeding expectations.

Yet, despite the Ninth Ancestor's words, Chu Wuchen remained unmoved, continuing to absorb voraciously.

"Leave some for me!"

The Ninth Ancestor became anxious.

Seeing this, he couldn't bear to interrupt Chu Wuchen and resorted to manually extracting some of the celestial liquid.

This sight...

Tsk, tsk...

It was quite unbecoming for a Ninth Ancestor of the Chu family.

Especially for the Ninth Ancestor of a powerful clan like the Chu family.

Boom!

Not long after, a roar erupted from within Chu Wuchen, as if a shackle had been broken.

This was the extreme limit of the Body Refinement Realm, the pinnacle of 100,000 jin of blood power.

"In the Body Refinement Realm alone, he consumed so much power..."

The Ninth Ancestor muttered.

This was a good sign.

It indicated that Chu Wuchen's physical potential was terrifyingly vast, even more extraordinary than his own.
