Chapter 540: Chapter 533: Order
BOOM!!!
The terrifying explosion rocked everything around him. Even Zhou Yuanjue himself was stunned by the destructive power generated by the energy blast.
It had been such a casual strike, yet the mere release of that biological energy produced an effect that seemed to rival a missile explosion.
Conventional ground weapons, like tanks, would probably be blown to smithereens by an eruption of this power.
And this was just a casual test from Zhou Yuanjue; he hadn’t made any deliberate effort to meticulously control or shape the structure of this energy.
One could only imagine how much its effects would be amplified if he could integrate this power into specific moves, like a Secret Technique such as Sky Traverse.
That would be far more powerful than any attack method he had used to date!!
He used his cells to generate force, directly extracting the potent biological vitality stored within them as energy. He then channeled this energy out of his body through his magnetized physique. Finally, using his Life Magnetic Field as a guide, he kept the biological energy condensed in a specific form and structure before unleashing it completely under the control of his will.
This method of attack had already transcended the simple release of fundamental powers like the physical body and magnetic fields, ascending to a higher Energy Level.
This was not a power that an ordinary life-form could master, and it was also something completely beyond an ordinary life-form’s imagination.
By directly mobilizing the bio-energy within his body, his soul’s authority over his physical form had reached another level.
Staring at the massive, nearly twenty-meter-wide crater that had appeared before him, where some of the sand had crystallized from the intense heat, Zhou Yuanjue couldn’t help but mutter, "This... is this the power wielded by the King Level?"
Initially, humanity could only utilize power through bodily tissues, such as by contracting muscles and moving joints.
Thus, the beginning of the Martial Dao was focused on the fundamental development of the human body—strengthening every organ and learning various martial techniques to achieve perfect application of one’s power.
As humanity evolved to a higher level of life, at the Saint Awakening Realm, the Life Magnetic Field became a new power they could command. It helped them further unlock their bodies’ potential and understand themselves and nature.
But upon reaching the King Level, the human will gains complete mastery over the body, penetrating to the cellular level. They can even alter their own genetic structure to achieve autonomous evolution. Naturally, their utilization of the body undergoes a qualitative leap.
There were far too few records about the King Level, so Zhou Yuanjue didn’t know what kind of power one would grasp after reaching it. However, he speculated that the power he had just displayed was likely the signature characteristic of the King Level.
In fact, his guess was correct. This formidable power was indeed exclusive to the King Level.
It was known as the Divine Soul.
WHOOSH!!
The next moment, the cellular backlash from forcibly commanding his cells struck him. This forced him to exit the state of cellular activation, withdraw the field of will scattered throughout his body back into his central nervous system, and regain control of his physical form.
PFFT!!
The backlash at the cellular level made him spit out a mouthful of blood. He felt uncomfortable all over, his entire body severely injured.
However, the Southern Dipper Immortal Seat on his chest then began to glow, and a silvery-white power enveloped his entire body.
To someone like Beichuan Xuanxin, such injuries would be extremely severe, possibly even life-threatening. But to Zhou Yuanjue, who possessed a nearly immortal Recovery Power, they were merely minor wounds.
What truly concerned him was the consumption of his own stamina.
One-tenth.
A single release of that level of bio-energy had depleted nearly one-tenth of his now almost bottomless reserves of stamina!
Although this ability was incredibly tyrannical, its consumption was simply too terrifying.
This was not a technique designed for ordinary life-forms.
’What level am I even considered to be right now?’
Zhou Yuanjue began to ponder as he regulated his breathing to recover.
He found that he couldn’t quite pinpoint his own level of strength.
Although he had found the path to break through to the King Level, his body had not yet undergone the final transformation. And yet, he could already wield a power that should only belong to the King Level.
This was a state never before seen in Earth’s biosphere. Therefore, no one could truly define Zhou Yuanjue’s current level.
With the dual sublimation of his physical body and magnetic field, those at the pinnacle of mortals, like the Seven Mo Luo, were no longer his match. He was even confident he could briefly contend with a King Level expert.
And now, with the triple sublimation of his physical body, magnetic field, and Control Power over his body, he had evolved a bio-energy attack method. His strength had once again taken a great leap forward. The true gap between him and a genuine King Level expert was something he would perhaps only know after a real fight.
’No matter what, the most urgent task right now is to figure out how to compensate for the flaws of the cellular activation state.’
Zhou Yuanjue calmed himself. His pickup hadn’t arrived yet, so he continued to plan for the future.
’I have to overcome the flaw of the cellular rebellion in the "Self-Annihilation" state. Otherwise, I’ll never be able to achieve a true leap in life, because I can’t fully control that power.’
’If the body is a country, then its various cells are the citizens. In the past, the field of will resided in the brain, acting as a dictator over the entire body. It was like a feudal regime, an autocracy that stifled the initiative and creativity of the "individual," making it impossible to fully activate their power.’
’But in the "Self-Annihilation" state, the field of will completely detaches from the brain and merges with the body, fully activating the autonomy of the cells. In this state, each individual cell fights for itself. But since they are all part of the same collective, biological instinct drives them to unconsciously compete for leadership and control within the organization, leading to war and backlash. In reality, this is like the state described by some "anarchists"—a state that exists only in ideals but cannot be realized. If one were to actually govern a country or build a collective based on this state, it would inevitably lead to rebellion and dire consequences.’
’These are experiences and lessons that can be drawn from the history of Human Society’s development. The Martial Dao is the Cultivation of the body, but the great Dao and Truth are hidden in all things. Perhaps I can draw on the experience of Human Society’s development and, by sacrificing a small part of the cells’ autonomy and creativity, establish a new system within my body, one unique to the life-forms of Earth.’
’I need to establish a new "order" within my body and discard the inherent biological order. This is also a path to completely mastering myself...’
Zhou Yuanjue was lost in thought, his eyes gradually growing brighter and brighter as important words flashed through his mind.
Order, system, laws.
Acupoints, meridians, and nexus.
