"Begin your cultivation."
Gu Chen said in a deep voice.
Zhao Bo didn't know what to say at that moment, so he could only suppress his shock and nod.
Soon, Zhao Bo sat cross-legged, swallowed the Luo Heaven Pill, and began cultivating. Before long, a mist rose around his body, and he gradually entered a meditative state.
Upon seeing this, Gu Chen closed the door.
He didn't take out the Jade Guanyin because, besides the fact that Zhao Bo's "Undying Divine Skill" wasn't the only way to cultivate it, another reason was that he couldn't reveal too much to Zhao Bo.
Occasionally revealing something is necessary to maintain mystery and awe.
After Zhao Bo began cultivating, Gu Chen also began to digest his internal energy.
After his cultivation reached the Revolving Illumination Realm, apart from killing those two members of the Beacon Fire Hall, he hadn't had a chance to properly stabilize his cultivation.
When cultivators meditate, they lose track of time. In the blink of an eye, Gu Chen had spent most of a day in meditation.
Gu Chen didn't open his eyes until nine o'clock in the evening.
"Great! It's stable."
Gu Chen exhaled a heavy breath, feeling completely refreshed throughout his body.
Moreover, not only did he stabilize, he also gained Divine Sense!
Divine Sense is a fundamental skill for cultivators, and also a technique that distinguishes them from martial artists!
The so-called Divine Sense, simply put, is the ability to perceive. Some powerful individuals can know what is happening thousands of miles away just by relying on their Divine Sense. Of course, Gu Chen has only just cultivated it, so it won't be that exaggerated. His current range is less than ten meters, but this thing is very illusory and more terrifying than any technological product or electronic radar.
Soon, his brows furrowed slightly, for he sensed a deathly aura spreading through the room. A thought struck Gu Chen, and he immediately stood up, opened the door, and peered inside.
Zhao Bo was still sitting cross-legged in the center of the formation, but his face was contorted in pain. Even from the doorway, Gu Chen could hear the cracking sounds of his bones.
"Going mad with qi?"
A thought flashed through Gu Chen's mind: it was clearly just a breakthrough, how could he have suffered a qi deviation?
He quickly dismissed the idea, then released a Divine Sense to investigate, discovering that Zhao Bo had actually fallen into a cultivation misconception. After all, the modified version incorporated a lot of Gu Chen's understanding, and while the original "Undying Divine Skill" only had a return path, the path forward was different.
Given Zhao Bo's level of understanding, it's truly difficult to comprehend.
"Fine, I'll help you out."
After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen went to Zhao Bo's back and placed his hand on his spine.
Puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted from Zhao Bo's mouth.
This mouthful of blood was actually stagnant blood in his body. After spitting it out, Zhao Bo felt refreshed, as if he had been reborn. At the same time, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Revolving Illumination Realm!"
I've broken through!
Zhao Bo was extremely excited and turned to look at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen nodded and said, "Not bad, you've broken through."
At this moment, Zhao Bo clearly felt the difference. After all, the Revolving Illumination Realm was known as the Grandmaster Realm. The effect of this transformation was like a child suddenly growing into an adult, and his body was full of power!
"Reflect on it carefully!" Gu Chen said in a deep voice.
Within three days, he first broke through to the Revolving Illumination Realm, and now Zhao Bo. If this were to be told, probably no one in the entire Huaxia would believe it. But Gu Chen not only accomplished this, but Zhao Bo also broke through with his help.
Zhao Bo nodded firmly, then hurriedly closed his eyes to meditate.
Every breakthrough to a higher realm brings a brief moment of enlightenment, known as "enlightenment of a realm." Gu Chen's realm was so high that he didn't need to seek enlightenment before, but Zhao Bo is different. He had been stuck at this realm for many years, and now that he has broken through, he naturally needs to use his heart to seek enlightenment.
About half an hour later, Zhao Bo finally finished his enlightenment, opened his eyes, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light!
The next moment, he knelt down and prostrated himself before Gu Chen!
"Thank you, Master!"
Zhao Bo was so excited that he didn't know what to say, and a stream of tears rolled down his cheeks.
The Revolving Illumination Realm —that's the realm countless martial artists dream of!
Zhao Bo had been stuck at the Peak Bone-Forge Realm for over ten years! Breaking through in one fell swoop, he truly felt reborn and his long-cherished wish had been fulfilled!
It even gave him an urge to roar to the heavens!
But he held back, because he knew that it was all because of one person!
Someone who suddenly appeared a few days ago, and whom he had been extremely skeptical of!
But now, all that has vanished. He feels nothing but admiration and respect for Gu Chen. At this moment, he is incredibly grateful to have become Gu Chen's disciple! This is an incredible opportunity, one that can only be encountered once in a lifetime!
"You're welcome. This is the result of your own hard work."
Gu Chen stood still, smiled faintly, then reached out and helped Zhao Bo up, asking, "How do you feel after the breakthrough?"
"Excellent!" Zhao Bo exclaimed excitedly, "All of this was given to me by my master, especially the Luo Heaven Pill. After taking three of them, I almost suffered a qi deviation. If it weren't for my master's presence, I might have already died!"
"It's not that exaggerated." Gu Chen chuckled and said, "However, you've also reached the Revolving Illumination Realm. Let's go to the courtyard and feel your strength."
Upon entering the courtyard, Gu Chen stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Now, throw a punch at me. Remember, with all your might!"
"This..." Zhao Bo hesitated for a moment. After the breakthrough, he clearly felt that his strength had increased significantly. Even though he had not yet fully stabilized and digested it, he estimated that he could easily deal with the three of his predecessors.
"What, afraid of hurting me?" Gu Chen asked with a half-smile.
Zhao Bo gave an awkward smile and said, "Master, no."
Gu Chen's expression turned solemn, and he coldly said, "Attack without hesitation!"
"Good!"
Zhao Bo could only grit his teeth, then focused his energy in his dantian, his fingers forming a crane's claw, and reached out to grab Gu Chen!
A fierce wind howled, and claws seemed to drink blood!
It's a move from the "Undying Divine Skill," the Five Void Claw!
Having unleashed this move once more, Zhao Bo, now at the Revolving Illumination Realm, had gained new insights and understanding!
But the next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted!
Because when its claws were less than two inches away from Gu Chen, they could no longer advance even an inch!
There seemed to be an invisible shield of energy in front of him, completely blocking him out!
You must understand, he is no longer the same as before, he is now at the Revolving Illumination Realm, yet he still cannot break through Gu Chen's defense!
Then, something even more surprising happened. Gu Chen raised his hand and flicked it gently in the direction he was in!
In an instant, as if ripples were spreading across water, the air shield in the void transformed into a wave of water centered on Gu Chen's finger, shooting straight towards Zhao Bo!
Thump!
A cacophony of clanging weapons rang out!
When the Five Void Claw encountered Gu Chen's flick of the wrist, their attack vanished instantly!
Zhao Bo stumbled backward, lost his balance, and fell to the ground!
How could that be?
Zhao Bo looked up, staring in disbelief at Gu Chen, who hadn't moved an inch!
