"Chen Yu wins, becoming the new eighth on the Heavenly Martial List!"
The surroundings fell silent, with only the voice announcing the victory echoing.
For Chen Yu, this was expected. He had planned to enter the top ten when he came here, but a troublemaker like Qu Nanxiang suddenly appeared, so he taught him a lesson in passing.
The discussions around gradually started, and those who hadn’t entered the Heavenly Martial List, or were disciples of the same rank as Chen Yu, expressed shock and admiration without reservation.
The top ten on the Heavenly Martial List is already at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Martial Sect disciples, attracting attention different from other disciples.
"This is definitely the fastest rise in ranking in the history of the Heavenly Martial List."
"Chen Yu is undoubtedly the first among our batch of disciples, even Qin Wentian appears dim in comparison."
Qin Wentian, standing nearby, was in shock, and hearing these words, his emotions were even harder to contain.
Since he was a child, he was surrounded by various halos, always achieving first place in everything, but ever since meeting Chen Yu, he felt his life had completely changed, and his glory had shifted to Chen Yu.
Whoosh, whoosh!Chen Yu and Luo Yulian flew off the Sky Martial Battle Platform.
"You’re impressive. Before, I thought you were like a toad wanting to eat swan meat, but it seems I underestimated you. As Lin Yuxuan’s good sister, senior sister supports you, oh."
Luo Yulian, although defeated, quickly emerged from the failure and jokingly teased with a smile.
"Yu Lian, don’t talk nonsense."
Lin Yuxuan bit her silver teeth.
However, Chen Yu’s growth speed surprised even her. Lin Yuxuan had seen many talented elites, but Chen Yu undoubtedly stood among the top ranks.
Furthermore, being in the same sect, she had some understanding of Chen Yu’s character and temperament, which she found quite favorable. Such a fianc wasn’t too bad after all.
Wait, why did she suddenly think of him as a fianc?
Lin Yuxuan’s cheeks flushed slightly as she extinguished her previous thoughts.
This scene was captured by Guan Hongri beside her, who thought Lin Yuxuan’s heart was moved because of Chen Yu.
"Haha, congratulations to Junior Brother Chen for entering the top ten of the Heavenly Martial List."
Guan Hongri, standing beside Lin Yuxuan, squeezed out a smile to congratulate him.
In the previous battle, he witnessed Chen Yu’s true skills, feeling a bit pressured.
It seems within ten years, Chen Yu entering the top five of the Heavenly Martial List is no problem. When he receives half of the compensation resources, he will progress quickly and surpass Guan Hongri even faster. .
This made Guan Hongri more displeased with Chen Yu. The timing of his entry into the sect was similar to Chen Yu’s age, and being surpassed would leave him without dignity.
But in this sect, Guan Hongri had no way to deliberately make things difficult for Chen Yu.
After bidding farewell to Lin Yuxuan, Guan Hongri, and others, Chen Yu came to the Heavenly Storage Pavilion.
This is a forbidden place in the Heavenly Martial Sect, storing many secret techniques, powerful inheritances.
Besides these, there are other types of ancient texts, covering everything.
After entering the Heavenly Storage Pavilion, Chen Yu started to read relevant texts, wanting to understand his newly awakened physique.
Able to accelerate the absorption of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and absorb all types of energies in the world to enhance his cultivation, Chen Yu’s newly birthed physique was quite remarkable.
"Xuantian Divine Body, Chaos Body!"
Chen Yu found descriptions of these legendary physiques, somewhat resembling his newly birthed one.
Both the Xuantian Divine Body and the Chaos Body can absorb various energies in the world.
There is a difference between them; the Xuantian Divine Body absorbs fewer energy types but has a faster cultivation speed, while the Chaos Body absorbs more types, with faster absorption speed, but requires self-"filtering" to use them.
"Though it’s hard to determine which of the two this new physique belongs to, both Xuantian Divine Body and Chaos Body are legendary and the strongest cultivation physiques, rarer than even the Undying Body."
Chen Yu had a smile on his face.
Individuals possessing these two types of physiques are extremely rare in ancient texts.
And these children of Heaven, as long as they do not perish, have a high probability of breaking through to the Heavenly Union Realm, becoming one of the gods of the main world.
Leaving the Heavenly Storage Pavilion, Chen Yu returned to his residence.
He would certainly figure out in the future what kind of new physique he had just acquired.
He entered the meditation chamber to begin seclusion and consolidate his just-broken-through cultivation realm.
He needed to quickly improve his strength and obtain more resource rewards, which, even if not needed now, would be useful in the future.
Spending two months, Chen Yu completely stabilized his cultivation, then began cultivating related combat techniques within the Vermilion Bird Burning Sky Wings layer.
"Sky Fire Flash," Vermilion Bird Strike, Heaven Feather Strike, etc., all still had room for improvement.
Moreover, within this layer, there were other attack techniques, flying secret skills, which could be selectively cultivated.
Vermilion Bird Burning Sky Wings had been perfected, but there was still room for improvement.
"Sky Fire Flash" had four layers in total, and Chen Yu had only cultivated up to the second layer.
The flying combat technique is extremely important for the Vermilion Bird Sacred Wings, and this technique is tailor-made for Body Cultivation, with instant explosive speed and attack amplification.
In his daily routine, Chen Yu cultivated this flying secret skill and other attack techniques in a special training secret realm, becoming more proficient in utilizing the Vermilion Bird Sacred Wings.
He spent three months on this.
Until "Sky Fire Flash" reached the third layer, the subsequent progress was slower, he gradually shifted focus.
The next stage of cultivation centered on comprehending the Profound Meanings.
He now focused on comprehending three types: Space Profound Meaning, Gold Profound Meaning, and Fire Profound Meaning, which required a vast amount of time and resources.
For others, it would have been unbearable long ago, and they might have given up on the Four Symbols Divine Body. Even if they persisted, progress would be slow.
But Chen Yu’s speed in comprehending the Profound Meanings was swift, and resources were abundant.
In the path of cultivation, the two most important aspects are talent and resources. Talent might be difficult to change, but resources must be strived for with all efforts.
No one would complain about having too many resources. Now Chen Yu wanted to rapidly enhance his strength to receive the rewards Elder Fan mentioned.
Among the three Profound Meanings, the Space Profound Meaning was the quickest to break through.
One day, a month later, his Space Profound Meaning broke through to the fifth level!
The higher the Space Profound Meaning realm, the more it truly displays its power.
At the Fifth Level of Space Profound Meaning, simple spatial attack divine skills could already be performed.
Buzz buzz!
Chen Yu extended his palm, with space power surging, quickly forming into a translucent, void-like blade.
Swoosh!
The blade flew out swiftly, without making much of a sound, silently slicing through the stone walls of the secret chamber.
An attack purely formed from the Profound Meaning of Space was equivalent to a regular attack from a Five-star King, but this "Space Blade" excelled in silence and speed, making it perfect for a stealth attack.
"What if the Space Blade is combined with the Void Sky Holy Fire?"
Chen Yu smiled slightly.
Buzz!
He condensed another Space Blade, upon which wisps of silver-gray flame suddenly appeared.
In an instant, Chen Yu sensed the terrifying power contained within this silver-gray transparent blade.
Clearly, the power unleashed by the combination of Void Sky Holy Fire and spatial energy was even greater.
Chen Yu refrained from testing the power of this strike, fearing the destruction of his seclusion chamber, and the Space Flame Blade in his hand gradually dissipated.
He took out a crystallized stone of the Profound Meaning of Fire, focusing on comprehending the Profound Meaning of Fire.
Aside from comprehending the Profound Meaning, he also set aside some time to practice the "Heavenly Fire Spirit Technique."
This fire control secret technique could not only enhance precise control over the True Fire Spirit Flame but also improve and hone Soul Power.
A year after closing himself off from the world, Chen Yu emerged.
The compensation system set by Elder Fan had long been deliberately leaked by Guan Hongri, which brought Chen Yu a lot of attention, but more so, jealousy.
After exiting seclusion, Chen Yu once again headed to the Sky Martial Battle Platform.
During this year of seclusion, he had made significant improvements. His use of the Vermilion Bird Sacred Wings far exceeded before, he had broken through to the Fifth Level of the Space Profound Meaning, his Profound Meaning of Gold reached four and a half levels, and his Profound Meaning of Fire also reached the fourth level.
Therefore, he wanted to find someone to spar with; combining cultivation with battle is the fastest way to improve.
"Chen Yu has come to challenge again."
"It seems he is determined to claim the compensation reward."
He quickly attracted a large group of disciples since Chen Yu now stood at the top of the Heavenly Martial List among the disciples, and battles within the top ten of the Heavenly Martial List were very captivating.
"A year ago, he just defeated the eighth-ranked Luo Yulian, how much could he have improved in just a year?"
Many didn’t have high hopes for Chen Yu.
Qin Wentian quickly arrived, looking at Chen Yu with shock. Is this guy even human? He’s challenging again, aiming for an even higher rank.
Soon, Lin Yuxuan and Guan Hongri arrived as well.
"Challenging the seventh, Qian Xiaosong!"
Chen Yu glanced at the name on the list.
Originally, the seventh should have been Jiang Han, but he had now climbed to the fourth position, and the seventh became Qian Xiaosong, who was also a Five-star King.
"I thought Junior Brother Chen would amaze us, but why is he only challenging someone just one rank higher?"
Guan Hongri quipped sarcastically.
Chen Yu ignored him, and soon his opponent, Qian Xiaosong, arrived.
The two didn’t know each other and exchanged no words, directly entering the Sky Martial Battle Platform.
The battle was about to erupt.
But Chen Yu took the initiative, using the speed advantage of his Vermilion Bird Sacred Wings to suppress Qian Xiaosong.
Qian Xiaosong attempted several times to disrupt Chen Yu’s rhythm but failed each time.
"His control over the battle has gotten stronger."
Lin Yuxuan said calmly.
"Qian Xiaosong’s strength isn’t much different from mine, but back then, my fight with Chen Yu was intense. However, now it seems the outcome of this fight is without much suspense."
Luo Yulian, beside her, said.
The outcome of the fight was predictable from the start.
The current battle was about whether Qian Xiaosong could perform extraordinarily, turning the tide and reversing the outcome.
At a certain moment, Qian Xiaosong seized an opportunity, his aura intensely rising, and the black-patterned giant blade hovering above his head emitted thick black smoke, transforming into a fearsome beast.
"Overlord Slash."
The blade swiftly slashed out, aiming at Chen Yu’s back.
Bang!
The cold and oppressive black blade light engulfed Chen Yu’s figure, with the surrounding airflow vibrating fiercely.
Suddenly, Qian Xiaosong sensed danger and hastily retreated.
But it was a bit too late; a transparent Space Blade sliced across his leg, an open wound appeared with bones cut through, and blood splattered out.
The dust cleared on the opposite side, revealing Chen Yu’s figure, the wound on his shoulder rapidly healing.
"I concede!"
Qian Xiaosong lowered his head.
"What happened just now? When did Chen Yu injure Qian Xiaosong?"
"It was the Space Blade; amidst the chaos earlier, Chen Yu took advantage of Qian Xiaosong’s inattention and used the Space Blade, which can only be unleashed with the Fifth Level of Space Profound Meaning!"
"This is a true genius, the Fifth Level of Space Profound Meaning!"
...
"Chen Yu won, advancing in rank to become seventh on the Heavenly Martial List!"
Chen Yu’s ranking moved up once again; although it was only by one position, many strong competitors on the Heavenly Martial List noticed Chen Yu’s progress in strength.
In just one year, Chen Yu had undergone such a significant transformation!
In reality, a year ago, Chen Yu had just broken through to Four-star King, at a phase where there was still considerable room for progress.
After the battle ended, Chen Yu left the place.
This fight was just an exercise after a year of seclusion.
In the days ahead, he planned to challenge opponents one by one, step by step, aiming for the top of the Heavenly Martial List!
On his way back to his residence, Chen Yu suddenly received a message.
"There’s news on the Heavenly Crystal Gold."
The White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw needed this rare material to reach perfection.
Previously, he had posted a requirement for Heavenly Crystal Gold in the "Heavenly Treasure Hall," and now there was finally some development.
