Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques

Chapter 549: Chapter 542: Imprinted in the Genes

’This is the feeling...’

A faint smile touched Zhou Yuanjue’s lips as he gazed at the enormous, malevolent beast.

His entire body trembled. Under the immense pressure, every cell reacted with instinctive fear. His very existence was facing a fatal moment.

However, much like a spring, the greater the pressure, the more immense the power it accumulates.

He was a member of the Donghua people.

The culture of Donghua, the Martial Dao of Donghua, the spirit of Donghua—all were deeply ingrained in his very being.

Perhaps, among his people, there were many who were selfish and self-serving, many who bowed and scraped, many who endured humiliation just to survive.

But there were more who were impassioned and righteous, whose fervor pierced the heavens, who would cast aside life and death for their cause.

They would rather die as shattered jade than live as intact clay tiles.

They would rather die on their feet than live on their knees.

All of this spirit was infused into every cell of his body.

At this critical juncture, all his cells cast aside their baser instincts. Resonating with that powerful spirit, they began to unleash their full power.

’So many ambitions are born of sacrifice; we dare to command the sun and moon to bring a new dawn.’

At this moment, without any guidance from Zhou Yuanjue, the countless awakened "I"s within him began actively seeking a path of revolution—a path to establish a new order within his body and create a new epoch for life itself.

At that instant, Zhou Yuanjue’s primary consciousness, his magnetic field of will centered in his brain, began to guide the various parts of his body.

The first was the Niwan Palace, located between his eyebrows.

A faint spark flickered, swaying precariously. It seemed as though it could be extinguished at any moment, yet it persisted.

Amid this perilous storm, the spark grew ever more brilliant, resilient, and stable.

This was the first "nexus" he had established within his body.

It was also, in itself, a groundbreaking event of the highest order.

In any society, any people, any organization, once a single spark appears, a raging fire will inevitably follow, burning unstoppably.

A new order, representing advancement and power, will completely replace the old.

It is a surging tide, an unstoppable certainty.

Once the nexus in his Niwan Palace was established, other parts of his body began to follow suit. In the face of this immense crisis, and with little guidance from Zhou Yuanjue’s primary consciousness, a new physical order began to form. Centered on his various Acupoints, it was established by the autonomous will of his countless cells.

A single spark ignited a revolution within his body, the likes of which had not been seen in the tens of millions of years since Earth’s birth.

The Industrial Revolution completely changed Human Society and the course of history.

Now, the biological revolution taking place within Zhou Yuanjue’s body would in turn completely change Human Society, Earth’s entire biosphere, and the history of all civilizations and races.

His body was undergoing a metamorphosis, but it wasn’t just his body. The entire era was being transformed.

In that moment, Zhou Yuanjue’s Spirit entered a trance, and countless images flashed before his eyes.

Ancient Earth.

RUMBLE!!

The clouds roiled as a bolt of lightning ripped through the dim sky, striking the water below.

From this, the very first forms of life, the first living structures, came to be.

The once-silent planet began to teem with activity. In the boundless oceans, more and more peculiar life-forms evolved. Tectonic plates shifted. Life Evolution advanced through great hardship.

A new Chapter for life began when the first organism left the ocean and set foot on land.

The vast lands flourished. Prehistoric beasts rose and fell. Earth’s climate changed cataclysmically.

Finally, a creature was the first to rise from all fours. It stood for the first time upon the vast earth, arms hanging at its sides, and lifted its head to gaze at the endless sky.

Standing tall, a pillar between heaven and earth.

The primordial shape of the character for "human" was thus born into the world.

With the emergence of humankind, in the brief span of tens of thousands of years, the entire planet and its civilizations were turned upside down.

As these scenes unfolded in Zhou Yuanjue’s mind, tears welled in his calm eyes.

It was an ineffable, moving experience.

These images were not illusions. They were a legacy, branded deep within the Natural Magnetic Field and etched into the very genes of all life—a heritage that could never be forgotten.

Fragile life struggled to survive in a cruel world. Generation after generation, they could only evolve passively, never truly able to master their own destinies.

But now, everything was different.

Because he had come into this world.

The images flashed past, and the final scene to appear before him was, surprisingly, himself.

In a boundless jungle, atop a low mountain peak, a figure shimmering with light faced a massive beast with blood-red eyes.

The wind howled and the clouds churned, stirring the air into a chaotic torrent.

That figure, though tiny, would never retreat.

To charge forward in the face of adversity, to be unafraid of hardship and peril—this was the will of the Martial Dao, and also the will of Life Evolution.

This very scene, here and now, would be deeply seared into the Natural Magnetic Field—just like all the other moments Zhou Yuanjue had witnessed. It would be branded into the genetic memory of every living being on Earth.

Because, at this moment, life on Earth had reached a new peak.

Zhou Yuanjue slowly closed his eyes.

「At the same time.」

"Die!!!"

A heaven-and-earth-shattering roar echoed in all directions. The black-robed figure crouched slightly and thrust his hands forward in a rapid series of pushes.

ROAR!!

The phantom of the Evil Black Tortoise—a being of pure, immense biological Energy that stood between heaven and earth—let out a furious roar. Under the control of the black-robed figure’s magnetic field, it charged violently toward the low mountain peak.

Its two giant heads launched a frenzied assault.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!

An immense roar and vibration followed. The unimaginable power seemed capable of razing the entire mountain to the ground.

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ!!

Perhaps because the power at the scene was too intense, everyone before the pool felt the ground tremble violently. The water in the pool vibrated, and the projected image of the battle blurred completely, rendering it impossible to see a thing.

SPURT!!!

At almost the same instant, the two clan elders seated on either side of the pool violently coughed up a mouthful of blood, briefly breaking out of their Wooden Eye state.

"Clan Elders!!"

All the members of the Forest Race let out shocked cries.

"The fluctuations on-site are too powerful. We were caught off guard and injured by the aftershock. Wait a moment. We’ll try to re-establish the connection immediately."

The Second Clan Elder spoke, and then both elders fell silent again.

Hearing the Second Clan Elder’s words, the expressions of all the Forest Race members turned grim.

They were well aware of the two elders’ strength; they were undoubtedly elites among the Celestial Level. Yet now, even from such a great distance, the aftershocks from the battle’s magnetic field were enough to make them cough up blood.

They couldn’t begin to imagine what kind of terrifying power was at play.

’Could Zhou Yuanjue possibly survive such power?’
