Upon becoming a First-order Martial Artist.
The sense of shackles around his body vanished. As he ran, his strength seemed to rise steadily. With a casual movement, Su Bei now wielded tens of thousands of jin of force, and his speed was astonishingly fast.
Every movement kicked up rolling clouds of sand and dust behind him, as though an army of thousands was charging through.
His perfected martial realm in boxing also showed its effects at this moment. The suddenly surging strength in his body came completely under his control within mere minutes.
An ordinary person would never have been able to achieve this without a period of grueling cultivation.
In this world, martial realms were as important a component of one's strength as divine sense was in a cultivation world.
It was hardly strange that it had such an effect.
Su Bei's movements here were so great that the Star-walking Rats dwelling in this desert could not possibly have failed to notice.
Rustle, rustle, rustle...
Tremors spread across the ground. From deep underground, Star-walking Rats swarmed toward the surface.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sand and soil exploded. The Shattered Battlefield had not seen fresh flesh and blood for a long time, and these Star-walking Rats burrowed out of the earth like mad creatures. Their sharp fangs gaped wide as they longed to tear a piece of flesh from Su Bei's body.
There were a great many of them. In just this brief moment, more than a dozen had emerged!
Rather than being alarmed, Su Bei was delighted. The Star-walking Rats were too small, and the trace of rule power in their blood was even thinner. The more that came, the better!
He swept his spear.
The Star-walking Rats that had previously been able to cause Su Bei a little trouble were now like weeds. With a single horizontal sweep, five died on the spot, and he directly stored them in the Mustard Seed Space.
In an extremely short time, Su Bei killed all dozen or so Star-walking Rats.
He stored every one of them in the Mustard Seed Space.
Su Bei did not stop. He continued making an even greater commotion in the desert. Before long, he drew out several dozen more Star-walking Rats. After killing them all, he stored them in the Mustard Seed Space as well.
After traveling for quite some time, no more Star-walking Rats emerged to deliver themselves to their deaths.
He had probably cleared out most of them.
Su Bei frowned. He had killed more than twenty Star-walking Rats, yet the rules of this Shattered Battlefield remained incomparably stable, as though they had not been affected at all.
Only parts of the desert environment showed signs of collapse.
"Based on past experience with Shattered Battlefields, a Shattered Battlefield usually has between thirty and a hundred Starry Sky Alien Beasts, as well as one lord-level Starry Sky Alien Beast..."
"More than twenty Star-walking Rats have had so little effect. It seems that, aside from the Star-walking Rats, there are other Starry Sky Alien Beasts in this Shattered Battlefield, and quite a few of them at that."
He had run into a rather unlucky situation. There were simply too many Starry Sky Alien Beasts.
And the more Starry Sky Alien Beasts there were, the stronger the lord would be.
Still, this was a Shattered Battlefield open to Quasi-Martial Artists. The Starry Sky Alien Beasts would not be too powerful, so dealing with them should not take much effort.
He still did not know how large this Shattered Battlefield was, but this desert should be the territory of those Star-walking Rats.
With a flash, Su Bei did not leave the desert. Instead, he found a relatively safe place nearby.
He sat down cross-legged.
He took out the meteorite from his spatial storage, and the Emperor Sun Aura within his body immediately began to stir wildly once more.
He then took out all the Star-walking Rat blood and stored it in a bottle.
After preparing everything, Su Bei took a deep breath.
The Great Sun Emperor Body Technique began to circulate in his mind.
The first step was to inscribe a dharma seal over his heart. In a Fantasy World, this could easily be done with spiritual energy.
But in this world without spiritual energy, it became somewhat difficult.
His blood and qi followed a special trajectory as the surrounding energy rushed madly into his body. In the end, it was condensed together under the envelopment of his blood and qi, as though he were drawing runes inside his body.
It formed a seal over his heart.
Pop!
Su Bei's body shuddered, and the blood and qi at his chest instantly scattered. The dharma seal he had only just begun to draw vanished without a trace, while a great amount of blood and qi leaked out through his pores.
Su Bei gritted his teeth and continued.
Once.
Twice.
Three times.
His blood and qi were consumed wildly, only to be filled again in an instant by the Emperor Sun Aura.
Over and over again.
Su Bei did not know how much blood and qi he had consumed. He only felt that even if three to five fourth-order Martial Artists were drained dry, it would still not be enough to match the amount he had expended.
Finally.
A sun rune condensed from blood and qi appeared over Su Bei's heart. Blood and qi formed the seal upon it. It looked unstable, even as though it might collapse at any moment, yet it contained an ancient aura—majestic and mysterious, like the vast earth itself, as though it did not belong to the mortal world.
As expected of the other me. Even in a world without spiritual energy, the cultivation art he created can still turn blood and qi into a dharma seal.
Su Bei was secretly shaken. He did not know whether the Martial Artists of this world could accomplish the same thing after cultivating to greater heights, but one thing was certain: even if they could, it was definitely not something a First-order Martial Artist who had only just broken through could do.
The first step was complete.
Only then did Su Bei take out all the Star-walking Rat blood. He injected a strand of blood and qi infused with the Great Sun Emperor God Art into it, and a mutation began. The blood in the bottle spontaneously condensed and compressed, turning into a single red drop of blood that shimmered with dazzling radiance.
At that point, Su Bei placed the meteorite against his chest. He forcibly squeezed out a drop of essence blood and inscribed it onto the meteorite. An aura of the same origin immediately emanated from it.
At the same time, that refined drop of blood instantly fused into it. The rule power within the blood also took effect, turning substance into the insubstantial. At a certain moment, the meteorite transformed into something that no longer seemed to belong to this mortal world.
The second step was complete as well.
At this point, the real highlight came next.
The next moment.
Su Bei activated his blood and qi. The dharma seal over his heart flashed, spiraling outward and gathering around the meteorite. After a few breaths, all that remained in Su Bei's hand was a pile of powder.
And at the same time.
A sphere of light appeared over Su Bei's chest, taking the shape of a completely illusory meteorite.
Boom!!
Like the explosion of spring thunder, the Emperor Sun Aura surged forth without Su Bei even needing to urge it, rushing directly into the meteorite light sphere. Su Bei could even sense the joy radiating from the Emperor Sun Aura!
Like a fledgling bird returning to its nest, it could not wait.
The Emperor Sun Aura had found the place where it truly belonged!
But the light sphere had only just been born and was still fragile. As all the power of the Emperor Sun Aura rushed into it, the light sphere shook violently before it could stabilize, as though it were about to shatter.
"Condense!"
Su Bei formed a hand seal, and the phantom suddenly solidified. Light shone brilliantly, like a miniature sun.
"Great Sun, enter my body!"
The "sun" moved and appeared above Su Bei's sea of blood and qi, enveloping his entire body like the sun illuminating all living things.
Rumble!
The immense Emperor Sun Aura surged into every particle, every cell, and every strand of DNA in Su Bei's body.
It was energy vastly more powerful than Jade Wood, and the genes within his body began to tremble madly once again!
The quality of the Emperor Sun Aura's energy was simply an overwhelming advantage from a higher dimension!
The genes that had originally carried a jade-green tint were almost instantly crushed apart and reassembled by this higher-level energy, utterly tyrannical!
The new genes gleamed with brilliant golden light, looking noble and majestic. If his previous genes had been like tenacious soldiers, then his current genes were like kings clad in golden armor.
They looked down upon the world, supreme and peerless!
The Emperor Sun Aura contained an enormous amount of energy. No matter how ravenous Su Bei's genes were, they were completely filled.
The changes to Su Bei's appearance were even more obvious. His body, which had already been nearly perfect, now reached true perfection!
His frame became broader and thicker. Every part of his body seemed to have been meticulously sculpted by the heavens. Even his temperament changed somewhat, like the rising morning sun.
The strength of his physical body began to soar once more!
10000 KG!
12000 KG!
14000 KG!
16000 KG!
18000 KG!
19000 KG!
His strength had actually risen by a full 10,000 kilograms!
Su Bei lightly waved his hand.
The immense force nearly stirred up a gale. Sand and stones flew everywhere, a terrifying sight.
He rolled his neck.
"Yes, this is the feeling."
"Crushing my opponents is the proper way for me to operate. The moment I become a First-order Martial Artist, I will be invincible among First-order Martial Artists."
Su Bei checked the time. His breakthrough had actually taken more than a day.
The Emperor Sun circulated, and the sun within his inner universe shone down, as though it were connected to the sun of the outer universe, keeping him in perfect condition at all times.
"I wonder how the others are doing."
"It is time for me to sweep through everything."
