Chapter 334: Chapter 129: Super Grade (Part 2)

Thirty feet!

Fifty feet!

One hundred feet!

One hundred and fifty feet!

...

Three hundred feet!

The Martial Arts Saint Body expanded rapidly, growing larger and larger, inflating like a balloon. It shimmered with a faint golden light and gradually became more solid.

It was like the illusory image of a Buddha descending upon the world!

...

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea,

SWOOSH!

Fang Rui’s eyes snapped open. In that instant, the Martial Arts Saint Body solidified completely. "I’ve broken past Super Grade. The Martial Arts Saint Body is complete!"

The three-hundred-foot-tall Martial Arts Saint Body opened its eyes at the same moment. It was like adding the pupils to a painting of a dragon, bringing it to life in an instant.

But he was in a cave. How could it possibly be three hundred feet high?!

BOOM!

With a world-shaking crash, the mountain rock shattered, and Fang Rui burst out in his Martial Arts Saint Body form.

Under the midday sun, Fang Rui’s three-hundred-foot-tall Martial Arts Saint Body shimmered with a faint golden light. It emanated an incomparably terrifying aura that made the very air hiss and tremble under the pressure.

"SCREEE!"

A pair of Flowing Cloud Cyan Simurghs circled high in the sky, crying out in alarm as they looked down at their master. They felt the immense pressure from the difference in their life forms, their bodies trembling so much they almost plummeted from the sky.

"This feeling of overflowing power, like an Immortal or a Buddha... It’s truly... powerful!"

Fang Rui murmured to himself. Without retracting his Martial Arts Saint Body, he instinctively looked at his status panel.

[Name: Fang Rui]

[Tribulation: 9876]

[Cultivation Technique: Longevity Scripture (Golden), Primordial Scripture (Volume 2)]

[Realm: Super Grade (???), Middle Grade Spirit Master]

[Skills: Divination Skill (Limit-Breaking) (Golden), Fang’s Medical Skill (Perfection), Life-taking Saber Technique (Perfection), Rapid Trace Step (Perfection)...]

[Divine Techniques: Immortality (Gray), Outside the Calculation]

...

’Huh? Does the Longevity Scripture not have a Level anymore?!’

Fang Rui was surprised for a moment but then immediately understood. ’That’s right. Levels are for classifying those who come after. As the creator, I am the limit. I am the pinnacle. Why would I need a Level to acknowledge that?!’

’Golden represents the Perfection of the Longevity Scripture within the current framework. It cannot be upgraded any further...’

That made sense. Since there was no path forward yet, how could it be upgraded? He would be able to once he derived the next volume of the Longevity Scripture.

’My Martial Arts Realm has three question marks? Right. I didn’t take the Seed Path. I created my own New Technique, a unique existence, so of course it doesn’t have a realm name.’

’Hmm, what should I call this realm?!’

Fang Rui pondered.

Innate?

’That sounds too petty. Compared to the minor Innate realm from martial arts stories, where just emitting Sword Qi shocks everyone, perhaps I could call mine ’Great Innate’? Great Innate? No, that sounds strange.’

Transcendence?

’I have indeed opened up a qualitative gap in life form between myself and ordinary people, so I deserve the description "shedding the mortal body." But the name doesn’t sound very good, like it’s a foundational realm of the Immortal Path... It’s not domineering enough!’

Martial Arts Myth?

’Now that’s domineering! A realm like this is indeed extraordinary and saintly, so calling it ’Martial Arts Myth’ isn’t too much of an exaggeration. It would also be great for intimidating people. But... it’s one thing to deceive others, I can’t deceive myself. If this goes on, I’m afraid I’ll get a big head!’

"Forget it. This realm opens up a sea of Spiritual Essence, so I’ll call it the ’Primordial Sea’!"

As the thought crossed Fang Rui’s mind, on the status panel, the three question marks after Super Grade in the Realm category instantly changed into two words: Primordial Sea.

"So, my changes after breaking into the Primordial Sea Realm? First, the biggest change has to be the Martial Arts Saint Body."

He murmured, pushing his hands forward. The three-hundred-foot-tall Martial Arts Saint Body mirrored the action.

SWOOSH!

Spiritual Essence surged, crackling like electric arcs as it spun and shot out, slamming into the cliff face like a cannonball. Amidst a RUMBLING sound, a large amount of rubble came tumbling down.

"That Qi Martial Saint’s Martial Arts Saint Body was two hundred feet tall. It’s probably because of the Seed Path—the external Spirit Seed isn’t pure enough. But with the achievement of my New Technique, my Martial Arts Saint Body is a full three hundred feet tall."

"In the Spirit Master path, the realm above Upper Grade Spirit Master is the Source Realm. As far as I know, Seed Path Martial Saints are generally much weaker than Source Realm Masters, but that might not be the case for me!"

"Yesterday, Old Yuan shattered his Celestial Heart Seal for a self-sacrificing strike. If the me of today were to face it, I probably wouldn’t be seriously injured."

With a thought, Fang Rui’s Martial Arts Saint Body instantly dimmed and turned illusory, and his physical body floated gracefully to the ground.

"Compared to the Gang Essence from First Grade, which could leave my body by a hundred feet, my Spiritual Essence is more agile and condensed, able to leave my body by a full three hundred feet. This is also the foundation for constructing the Martial Arts Saint Body."

"The Martial Arts Saint Body is a burst state that consumes a massive amount of energy. Without the Chaos Dragon Pearl Origin to supply power, it would be difficult to maintain for even half the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. Normal combat will still be in my regular state."

Fang Rui tested the strengthening effect of Spiritual Essence on his body. It was over seventy percent stronger than when he was at First Grade, a truly qualitative change.

Furthermore, his abilities in healing injuries and suppressing poisons had also taken a major leap forward.

’Yesterday, Old Yuan’s attack shattered that Qi Martial Saint’s Martial Arts Saint Body and severely wounded his ’spirit’. Otherwise, with the powerful life force of a Seed Path Martial Saint, that Qi Martial Saint might not have died.’

Fang Rui shook his head, putting these thoughts aside. With a flick of his wrist, Spiritual Essence surged in his palm, swirling to form a Cyan Jade Light Saber. Then, just as quickly, it transformed into a Cyan Jade Erhu.

"The ’Spiritual’ in Spiritual Essence doesn’t refer to Spiritual Qi, but rather to agility and spirituality—a power that can turn the mundane into the miraculous."

He murmured, gently drawing the bow across the erhu in his hand.

YIYIYAYA!

The melodious sound of the erhu drifted through the air, seeming to contain a strange rhythm.

High above, a flock of wild geese flying past stopped and began to circle. As if being controlled, they shifted formations. First, they formed a shape like a striding person. Then, they rearranged into a single, straight line. Finally, they came together to form the intricate, complex character meaning ’spirit’.
