Thirty-Six Transformations, evading calamity and avoiding disaster
"Call!"
They were unaware of the extent of the impact their tests had on the outside world.
Gouchen, who was communicating with the Gouchen Heavenly Palace in an attempt to complete the "Star Power Empowerment," was completely immersed in the mysteries of Star Power.
As for that faint scream from before?
Gouchen it as a side effect of the "Star Power Empowerment" and didn't take it to heart at all.
Star Power, or to be more precise...
The Star Power of [Gouchen Heavenly Palace] is synthesized from the primordial Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and was created by hundreds of gods with all their might.
Therefore, this Star Power is naturally different from other Star Power, filled with a... mixed feeling?
Yes, even though it was his first time encountering Star Power, Gouchen, with his exceptional talent, had already sensed its complexity. The mixture of heaven and earth's Star Power Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the involvement of hundreds of gods...
This results in the fact that, in terms of purity, the Gouchen Star Power cannot be compared with that of other Star Power.
After all, other Star Power are nurtured by stars and each possesses the attributes of its corresponding star.
Slaughter, healing, conquest, calamity, or blessing...
These unique attributes are the hallmarks of each corresponding star, and the very foundation upon which every [Star God Dao] can touch the Great Dao. It seems... I can purify this Star Power?
A thought flashed through his mind unintentionally, Gouchen's Heavenly Eye between his eyebrows quietly opened.
As a tester, Gouchen naturally knew that he had the authority, responsibility, and obligation to do so.
Otherwise, if this mixed Star Power came into contact with other Mountain Folk, the harm it would cause would be absolutely unimaginable.
Whether from the perspective of data collection or simply because he felt it was within his capabilities, Gouchen's body began to change on its own. This was precisely the [Thirty-Six Transformations] derived from the [Thousand Transformations Divine Ability].
Although the Thirty-Six Transformations are not like the Thousand Transformations Divine Ability, which allow one to change their body at will.
However, as a simplified version of the "Thousand Transformations Divine Ability," the "Thirty-Six Transformations" have a natural advantage in avoiding disasters and calamities.
"Gouchen?"
Having keenly observed Gouchen's change, the Nüshi immediately opened her Heavenly Eye.
Outwardly, Gouchen still retains its human form.
However, with the activation of the [Thirty-Six Transformations], a tremendous change has taken place within Gouchen's body.
From the five internal organs to the meridians and acupoints, and even to every single cell...
To adapt to the complex Star Power, these cells are evolving at a rate visible to the naked eye.
In the original timeline, even if Gouchen cultivated the [Thousand Transformations Divine Ability], it would have been impossible for him to perform such subtle and precise manipulations on his physical body.
Even the [Thirty-Six Transformations] focused on avoiding disaster and misfortune.
Its changes are also influenced by the practitioner's subjective will, making it impossible to achieve such a passive adaptation effect.
However, ever since Wu Jun Dao Proving the Great Unity, the sun that shines over the Three Realms has granted all living beings an extraordinary speed of evolution.
The miracle of compressing billions of years of evolution into an individual gave Gouchen, who had cultivated the Thirty-Six Transformations, the ability to adapt and evolve autonomously.
Without any need for subjective will, the cells themselves will adapt to and select from those mixed Star Power.
In fact, in this day and age, even without cultivating the [Thirty-Six Transformations]...
Given enough time, this evolutionary phenomenon will also occur at the individual level.
Humans who live in groups year-round might not perceive it clearly, but it's completely different for the spirits and wild beasts living in the mountains and fields. When Gouchen went to Yu Abyss to conduct an ecological survey, he discovered that many wild beasts were gradually evolving into human form.
They were all born as pure wild beasts.
But as they grew, these wild beasts became more and more like humans.
This is even more pronounced in individuals who possess intelligence.
Their cognition and inclinations are influencing the evolution of the body in a profound and lasting way.
This continuous evolution is somewhat similar to the Transformation Method of the Hanging Silk Lady.
But it is more passive and has no barriers to entry.
It was at that time that Gouchen mastered the Thirty-Six Transformations and gained the ability to actively influence this evolutionary process. "Gouchen! What are you doing now!"
As more and more Star Power flowed into his body, the image of a ferocious evil god faintly appeared behind Gouchen.
The evil god's upper body was a ferocious, eyeless Ominous Deity, while its lower body was a raging thundercloud.
Unfortunately, no matter how furious the evil god was, the power from the "God-Control Law" always kept it bound within Gouchen's body.
Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as his power was gradually depleted, eventually becoming the foundation for the evolution of Gouchen's physical body.
"Fenglong, shut up!"
Suddenly opening his eyes, Gouchen, enveloped in starlight, roared angrily.
Fenglong is the name of this Ominous Deity, who was also the thunder god who wreaked havoc in the mountains and forests before being Gouchen.
As an extremely rare deity possessing both the divine attributes of a thunder god and a cloud god, Fenglong practically grew up alongside Gouchen. Fenglong actually admired this Three-Eyed Clan who imprisoned him in his youth.
However, Gouchen always liked to stir things up, and most of the time he became the "price" for those stir-fries.
It was no wonder that Fenglong appeared so flustered and helpless.
As it turned out, Fenglong's guess was absolutely correct.
As Gouchen's body gradually adapted to the mixed Star Power and purified it bit by bit...
Faint lightning began to appear on Gouchen's body, and the starlight surrounding him began to assimilate with the lightning, no longer simply adapting to and filtering Star Power.
Instead, he used his mastery of Thunder Method to influence this pure Star Power in the opposite direction.
Thus, a Star Power that combined the characteristics of lightning and starlight was born.
"You're insane!"
Whether it was shock or astonishment, Fenglong also felt the birth of this power.
The simultaneous tempering of his body by lightning and Star Power caused Gouchen's physical strength to increase at an almost unbelievable speed.
In less than a few breaths, Gouchen's physical strength was already close to the threshold of the "Divine Gate and Heavenly Pass".
However, unlike ordinary immortals, Gouchen's physical body is more inclined to Myriad Transformations.
Correspondingly, the Yuan Qi reserves within Gouchen's body also received an astonishing boost.
It should be understood that Mountain Folk are among the best of humanity, and their vital Yuan Qi reserves far exceed those of ordinary humans by more than a hundred times.
Gouchen, who had practiced Thunder Method since childhood and completed the [Thirty-Six Transformations], was more than ten times more numerous than ordinary Mountain Folk.
Building upon this foundation, Gouchen's mastery of the Dao of Yuan Qi had surpassed even that of the Heavenly Deity born from heaven and earth. (Monthly ticket, Lun Wang/Female C recommendation ticket, Xin Wang)
