Chapter 425 - 287: Slaying 3 Supreme Grandmasters in a Row_4
The more eerie events followed,
Gu Zhan’s dantian, which had automatically developed an Inner Mansion when he had advanced to the Supreme Grandmaster level, contained an empty Spirit Platform hidden inside,
and now, as the True Essence transformed,
that Spirit Platform vanished,
then the Inner Mansion also gradually disappeared,
followed by the dantian slowly fading away.
At this point,
Gu Zhan was entirely unsettled,
for a martial artist’s dantian is formed at the onset of the Postnatal Realm as a station for absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to condense into Martial Arts Energy,
since Gu Zhan stepped into the Postnatal Realm,
the dantian had been developed,
and now,
the dantian he relied on for so long was actually gone!
However, the True Essence within him still remained,
Before Gu Zhan could react,
that strand of True Essence, brought to the pinnacle of transformation, suddenly blazed like a flame, then directly permeated into his limbs and bones, Eight Extraordinary Meridians, Heaven and Earth Two Bridges, as well as internal organs.
At that moment,
Gu Zhan sensed a significant change,
his body underwent a transformation, a change in essence, a transformation of the flesh,
he could clearly feel,
his blood boiling within him, infused with a violent element, and his limbs, bones, and Eight Extraordinary Meridians seemed to have been renewed,
at that moment,
Gu Zhan gained clarity,
his physical body had changed, elevated to a higher quality,
as if his former body was a mortal shell, now transformed into copper skin and iron bones.
This sensation was incredibly comfortable,
because this sense of power felt particularly substantial, completely distinct from before.
Although his realm remained the same,
previously, his strength was provided by the energy from the dantian, but now, he felt, this energy comes from within himself,
they are entirely two different concepts,
this sense of solidity was unprecedented.
However, he also felt that the transformation was not yet complete,
but after considering for a moment,
he realized it was likely because he hadn’t broken through to the next realm yet, given that he was currently cultivating within the same realm.
"But," Gu Zhan stroked his chin, muttering, "now there’s a problem, without a dantian, how am I supposed to cultivate?"
After a moment’s contemplation,
Gu Zhan attempted to operate his cultivation technique,
at that instant,
the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within a radius of several miles suddenly went berserk, surging towards Gu Zhan with frenzy.
Unlike the absorption by the dantian before,
this time, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi flooded directly into Gu Zhan as if his whole being were the center, pouring fiercely into his limbs and bones, Eight Extraordinary Meridians, forming a unique energy reminiscent of flames.
Moreover, the cultivation speed was much faster than the dantian; comparing a single dantian to the human body was a difference of dozens of times.
Gu Zhan slowly finished his cultivation, clenched his fist, feeling the unprecedented formidable power as if he could shatter the void with a single punch.
Slowly, without activating energy or manipulating Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi,
he simply struck the towering tree beside him, large enough to be embraced by an adult, with his bare strength.
With a "crack",
the trunk of the towering tree shattered directly.
"This kind of energy is significantly different from True Essence, one is cultivated postnatally while the other seems innate!"
After sensing for a while,
Gu Zhan thoroughly understood the changes in his current body,
In summary, the energy quality was wholly elevated, and his control over force had reached an unprecedented, meticulous level.

Gu Zhan looked at the system interface and murmured, "What kind of scenery will the next realm reveal?"
Having said that, Gu Zhan slowly raised his head,
"Sword King City, you shall be next!"
