Chapter 560: Chapter 553: Yuan Yi
RUMBLE!!
After absorbing a massive amount of Life Energy, a highly compressed blast from the Energy Cannon in Bi Qiu’s chest erupted with a world-shaking roar.
The entire land trembled.
SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH!!
Within the Prime Seed Pool, the thick Source Liquid churned with the tremors of the earth, causing even Zhou Yuanjue’s cross-legged figure to shift slightly.
However, the commotion was not enough to wake him.
He was at the most critical moment.
Over the past few days, thanks to the immense energy provided by the Forest Race’s Source Liquid, his body’s transformation had reached a profound level.
Manipulating the very essence of one’s genes was an extremely delicate and perilous matter, and what he was doing now went far beyond simple genetic modification.
He was fusing life, magnetic field, soul, and genes—everything—to form his own unique life imprint, and he could not afford even a moment of distraction.
Within his body, his blood and energy surged wildly. Everything was seemingly being reforged, and the manipulation of his genes had reached its final stage.
With one final closure, the initial creation of his life imprint would be complete.
And this would signify the true completion of his life’s metamorphosis.
CLICK!!
In the depths of his consciousness, the genetic sequence slowly closed, its parts fusing perfectly. As they arranged themselves, they formed a shape that resembled a feather, or perhaps an entire wing.
Profound beyond measure.
BOOM!!
The very moment his unique life imprint completely closed,
an immense attractive force poured out from his body.
The pores all over his body opened, rapidly absorbing the surrounding Source Liquid.
The level of the Prime Seed Pool dropped at a visible rate. If Kutum were here, he would surely be overcome with heartache.
VMMMM!!
At the same time, every cell in his body was reactivated, emitting Starlight from within.
The Star Transformation of his cells.
However, this was different from before. Amidst the silvery-white light, fine, blood-red lines spread out from within his cells. They crisscrossed and connected, covering the surface of his body in a pattern remarkably similar to his life imprint. This made his Divine Buddha-like figure appear even more majestic and mysterious.
In the Prime Seed Pool, Zhou Yuanjue’s eyes snapped open, and he slowly rose to his feet.
SLOSH!
The viscous liquid slid off his body, revealing his powerful, near-perfect physique.
He looked down at his hands, feeling the power within his body.
Before, his body’s Star Transformation would have inevitably had a huge impact on the surrounding environment.
There would have been blinding light, a powerful, leaking magnetic field, and massive, spontaneous changes in his surroundings.
He could call storms and make the very heavens change color.
But now, in this new state, even though his power had surged by an unknown magnitude, he had no effect on his surroundings whatsoever.
The surface of the liquid didn’t ripple from leaking Energy. The ambient temperature didn’t rise from his magnetic field or body heat. Even the Starlight radiating from within him had lost its former blinding quality, instead swirling gently around his body.
Yet, within this utter stillness lay a terrifying power.
Suppressing instinct, liberating the self—the path of the Martial Dao is the pursuit of true sovereignty over every aspect of one’s being. Now, he had finally tasted such a realm.
The Celestial Demons call individuals who have broken through their biological limits and can truly control the direction of their own evolution "King Level."
This is because they believe such individuals have surpassed ordinary life forms. They are like an Overlord or a Sovereign, a transcendent King that ordinary life can only look up to in awe.
That is why they call this realm "King Level."
But in Zhou Yuanjue’s eyes, this was merely another realm on his path of the Martial Dao; it held no greater meaning.
’Even this realm will eventually be surpassed by me. It’s no different from the other stages on my Martial Dao path, like Outer Cultivation, Inner Cultivation, and Holy and Bright.’
’Outer Cultivation, Inner Cultivation, Mastery of Fist Techniques, Holy and Bright, Guardian Dao, Saint Awakening, Celestial Phenomenon...’
’Since this is a new realm on the path of the Martial Dao, it should have a proper name.’
’The so-called King Level is ultimately just a narrow, self-limiting title, like a frog in a well.’
"Soul, life, magnetic field... All things return to one. Complete control over oneself, forging one’s own path, condensing one’s own life imprint..."
"This new realm... I’ll call it ’Yuan Yi’."
Zhou Yuanjue whispered to himself, establishing the name for a realm that held landmark significance for the entire biosphere of Earth.
BOOM!!!
Just then, another violent tremor struck. The entire ground tilted slightly, snapping him back to his senses.
"HAHAHAHA!! The Green God is nothing special after all!! If you don’t have any other tricks up your sleeve, then you can all become my food!!"
At the same time, a wild laugh echoed between heaven and earth.
Only then did Zhou Yuanjue realize that the entire sky above the Forest Race Ancestral Land was now covered by thick, mysterious vines.
And in the direction of the laughter, within a massive crater that appeared to have been blasted open by a powerful shockwave, two figures could be faintly seen.
"Has the battle already started? It seems I’m a step late. But not too late."
Zhou Yuanjue muttered to himself.
WHOOSH!!
The next moment, with a light tap of his toes, his figure shot silently into the air like a sharp arrow, covering dozens of meters in a flash.
In mid-air, the initial force from his launch dissipated. His body hung suspended for a moment before gravity took hold, and he began to fall.
However, at that very moment...
VMMMM!!
The cells throughout his body released power. He refined a potent stream of biological energy, channeled it through his legs, controlled it with his magnetic field, and then detonated it.
BANG!!
With a muffled bang, Zhou Yuanjue rode the air shockwave generated by the explosion of Divine Soul Power at his feet and took another forceful step.
Instead of falling, his body rose even higher as he leaped forward.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!!
Then, amidst a series of muffled bangs, Zhou Yuanjue advanced step by step as if treading on empty air, swiftly bypassing the obstacles on the ground below as he rushed toward the battlefield.
He had conceived of such a technique before, but his limited magnetic field strength meant he could only induce limited environmental changes, making it impossible to truly achieve. Furthermore, walking on air required an exceptionally demanding level of control over the release and retraction of power, which was why he had never succeeded.
But now, having reached the Realm of Origin One, both the strength of his power and his control over it had reached a new height.
And so, he became the first ordinary human to conquer the sky with his own two feet!!
