Chen Yu's transformation lasted for a long time.

Only several days later did the surging essence Qi of heaven and earth outside gradually settle down, no longer raging as it had before.

This also allowed Yan Ruyu and the others to breathe a quiet sigh of relief.

During the days of Chen Yu's transformation, they had not dared to lower their guard in the slightest, fearing that word of the disturbance here might accidentally spread and draw people from those Desolate Ancient Families.

After all, at this very moment, with the Demon Emperor's Emperor Weapon revealed to the world, descendants of the Azure Emperor like them had become hot commodities.

Plenty of people wanted to find them and seize the Emperor Weapon from their hands while they were weak.

What? You said an Emperor Weapon could not be seized?

The people of those sacred lands and Desolate Ancient Families could not care less.

The prolonged suppression of heaven and earth had long since made these powers forget the terror of ancient sovereigns and Great Emperors, leaving them ignorant of many things.

If you told them an Emperor Weapon could not be seized, they would only insist on trying.

What if they succeeded?

In short, the Azure Emperor Lineage's current situation was far from safe. For them, the less commotion there was right now, the better.

Now that Chen Yu's transformation had reached a stopping point, this was undoubtedly good news.

Inside the secluded cultivation chamber, Chen Yu sat cross-legged alone.

On closer inspection, shattered bones and golden blood lay everywhere.

These were all remnants left behind by his transformation.

After several transformations, his entire body had been renewed, as though he had lived another lifetime, with an unprecedented sense of lightness and comfort.

Although his cultivation realm had not risen, his physical body and divine sense had grown several times stronger, and formidable power surged with his every movement.

My physical body now probably isn't inferior even to a Desolate Ancient Sacred Body at the same level.

Various thoughts flashed through Chen Yu's mind. It might even be stronger.

Like the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, the Divine Sacred Body was also powerful to the extreme. In terms of its origin, it was far stronger than even the bloodline of an emperor's son.

But from Chen Yu's own experience, the two were powerful in different ways.

The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo possessed not only the Sacred Body's flesh and blood Qi, but also the Innate Dao Embryo's affinity for and ability to integrate the myriad Daos.

The Innate Dao Embryo and the Sacred Body complemented each other perfectly, making the physique formed by their union capable of rivaling the Chaos Body.

As another union between the Sacred Body and a different physique, the Divine Sacred Body was equally powerful, but its emphasis was different.

His strengths had become even stronger.

Compared to a pure Sacred Body, the Divine Sacred Body possessed an even stronger physical body and blood Qi, surpassing the pure Sacred Body.

Boundless divinity was contained within its vast golden blood Qi. Layered together, the two seemed to undergo sublimation, making their original strengths even stronger.

At the same time, the Divine Body's original traits, such as its wondrous ability to comprehend the Dao, had also been enhanced, becoming far more powerful than before.

It felt as though the two had been a single whole to begin with and had merely become complete now.

Chen Yu suspected that this was very likely because the two physiques already shared a deep connection.

According to ancient legends, both the Divine Body and the Sacred Body contained humanity's most ancient blood and were formidable physiques that had evolved from humanity's true blood.

And now, the Divine Sacred Body born from their union, having combined the strengths of both, might be closer to the pinnacle of humanity's true blood.

Compared to the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, it might fall short in integrating the myriad Daos, but it definitely surpassed it physically and would not be inferior in other respects either.

Overall, it was definitely a physique of the same tier.

Chen Yu rose and began moving around.

With his movements, the surrounding essence Qi spontaneously surged toward him, causing his Bitter Sea to roar and send out peals of thunder.

At times, it roared like a tsunami; at others, sacred sounds rang out from within, as though a supreme god king resided there, filling it with vast divinity.

As Chen Yu rose, heaven and earth roared in response, and the spirits of the four directions celebrated and crowned him. He resembled a divine being walking the world, before whom heaven and earth would bow together, possessing a terrifying, imperious presence.

This is a little too exaggerated.

Chen Yu stood where he was, feeling his current state with a measure of helplessness.

After this transformation, he discovered that his presence had become somewhat too pronounced.

This did not mean his cultivation had grown stronger, but rather that his position within heaven and earth had risen.

He merely stood there, without needing to do anything more. Simply by his presence, the laws of heaven and earth in every direction spontaneously bowed and submitted to him, as though heaven and earth themselves were paying homage.

With this divine and sacred physique, he seemed to have truly become an Innate Divine Being, possessing the majesty of a god king who could command the four directions and look down upon all things.

Bang!

When he circulated his divine power, the divine power within his Sea of Bitterness surged like a tsunami, spontaneously beginning to draw in the surrounding essence Qi and convert it into Life Spring Liquid.

In just a few breaths, his Divine Bridge rose even higher, as though it would cross the Bitter Sea and was about to reach the next realm.

Vaguely, Chen Yu sensed something.

Within his Bitter Sea, a manifestation had already awakened on its own, reviving spontaneously alongside his divine and sacred physique.

This should be a manifestation that had awakened naturally with the formation of his Divine Sacred Body.

The Desolate Ancient Sacred Body could possess nine great manifestations. As long as the timing was right, they could awaken naturally and be mastered, which was far easier than ordinary people painstakingly comprehending them.

As a union of the Divine Body and Sacred Body, the Divine Sacred Body had inherited this trait as well, and even surpassed it.

At the very least, even Ye Fan, who possessed the Sacred Body, had not awakened a single manifestation while in the Divine Bridge Realm.

Yet Chen Yu had now accomplished it.

This really is monstrous.

Standing where he was, Chen Yu felt his current state and could not help sighing.

His previous physique had already been very powerful. With second-generation emperor blood and nearly half a Divine Body's origin, both his physique and aptitude had been extremely formidable.

But compared to his current physique, it amounted to nothing.

In fact, Chen Yu's current physique had not truly reached perfection yet and still had flaws.

The main reason for this was the insufficient Sacred Body Origin.

The origins of the Divine Body and Sacred Body had combined to form the Divine Sacred Body, but the residual effects of the Origin Blood of All Things had not been enough to restore the Sacred Body's bloodline origin to completion. It had only restored around sixty to seventy percent, leaving it flawed.

This flaw had left Chen Yu's Divine Sacred Body somewhat congenitally deficient. Although it was a Divine Sacred Body, its innate origin was not yet complete and needed to be supplemented afterward.

For Chen Yu, however, this slight flaw was not much of a problem.

Here on Big Dipper, there was only one living Sacred Body, but there were still quite a few dead ones.

As long as Chen Yu sought them out one by one, he would eventually obtain more Sacred Body Origin through check-ins.

When that time came, his Divine Sacred Body would make up for its innate deficiency and become truly complete.

Of course, using another drop of Origin Blood of All Things would also work, but that would be rather wasteful.

Still... I really do have quite a lot of miscellaneous bloodlines in my body.

Holding the small golden bottle, Chen Yu carefully sensed them and was left somewhat speechless.
