Chapter 661: Five Two Seven, Great Achievement in Ancient Martial Arts_2

While the two were speaking, they had already concluded that Jiang Chen was a scourge that was causing chaos in the world.

"How audacious! Defaming me as a devil in my presence and trying to take my possessions."

"You two are quite something!"

"And you, Luli Venerable, as a strong figure in Buddhism, instead of thinking about slaying demons, you ally with them. There will certainly be a place for you in Buddha Hell."

Seeing the two acting as if they had already seen through him, Jiang Chen was furious and mocked the two coldly. Then he let out a laugh so astounding it seemed to shake the heavens.

"Creation Green Lotus, quickly merge with me."

Upon hearing Jiang Chen’s voice, Creation Green Lotus and Karma Fire Red Lotus rose at the same time, flying towards Jiang Chen. At that moment, Jiang Chen opened his mouth and swallowed the two Innate lotus flowers flying towards him.

Boom!

The next moment, an unimaginably powerful force of the Original Source erupted from within Jiang Chen, expanding his acupoints one after another.

One, ten, a hundred, thousands, tens of thousands...

Almost instantly, the tens of thousands of yet unopened acupoints within Jiang Chen’s body were all opened at once, each producing small worlds.

Boom!

The mighty force surged out, stirring within Jiang Chen’s body, elevating his mind to an unprecedented height.

In the moment of dizziness, Jiang Chen seemed to have reached the end of Heaven and Earth, where countless paths of the Innate converged, interweaving into a splendid Dao Fruit.

That was the Dao Fruit of the Innate Path, the so-called Dao Sovereign’s Dao Fruit. By imprinting one’s spirit upon it, one could attain the Dao Venerable Realm of the Innate.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was only one step away from the Dao Venerable of the Innate. But no matter what, he couldn’t take this step.

His accumulation was not enough.

However, being able to stand at the end of Heaven and Earth proved that Jiang Chen was now on par with the Venerable Dao of Innate.

He began to break through, creating a grand accomplishment in Ancient Martial Arts!

Boom!

The illusory River of Time and Space appeared behind Jiang Chen, distorted by the massive force bursting from his body.

On this illusory River of Time and Space, countless reflections of Jiang Chen appeared, all burning up and releasing unparalleled power, pouring into reality, into Jiang Chen’s body.

In an instant, the universe fell silent!

Then, it was earth-shattering.

The entire universe, the laws, the River of Time and Space, the River of Destiny, even the entire Three Realms, trembled at this moment. In particular, the Fate of the Human Race swirled endlessly, manifesting in the sky like a glowing sun, illuminating everything.

"Is this movement due to someone attaining the Tao?"

"No, no, if someone were just to attain the Dao and achieve the Innate Dao Sovereign’s Fruit, although it would resonate with Heaven and Earth, it wouldn’t make the Human Race’s Fate react this way."

"This fluctuation feels very familiar."

"Yes, it’s Ancient Martial Arts, someone has made significant progress in Ancient Martial Arts!"

At this moment, countless powers of the Three Realms were alarmed, they all opened their eyes incredulously and looked towards the source of the disturbance.

"Jiang Chen has achieved mastery in Ancient Martial Arts?"

"How did it happen so quickly?"

"Jiang Chen has only been cultivating for a little over two hundred years, and he’s already advanced in Ancient Martial Arts?"

"That’s too quick, how did he do that? Even if he was constantly consuming Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, it wouldn’t be this fast!"

At this time, not just the people who didn’t know Jiang Chen well, even those who did, were all so shocked they couldn’t speak.

Jiang Chen’s cultivation speed was really shockingly fast, too fast for anyone to react.

If others were just shocked, then Zao Chi and Luli Venerable were dumbfounded. They had never expected that when Jiang Chen said he would break through, he really meant it, and he did it right in front of them, achieving mastery in Ancient Martial Arts.

When did breakthroughs become so simple, let alone breakthroughs of such a grand realm?

Breaking through in the midst of battle is easier said than done, after all how many have truly accomplished it?

Zao Chi and Luli Venerable were caught in shock by the sudden event, but their astonishment did not last long. Quickly, both of them reacted and simultaneously attacked Jiang Chen.

They cannot allow Jiang Chen to break through successfully. Otherwise, their troubles would be immense. He was already so strong even before breaking through; if he were to complete the breakthrough, how could the two of them possibly rival him?

Exchanging glances, the consensus between Luli Venerable and Zao Chi was to go for a kill shot right away.

"Thinking of striking now? Too late!" Seeing the two charging at him, Jiang Chen revealed a disdainful expression, allowing their attacks to hit him without attempting to dodge or retreat.

The completion of Ancient Martial Arts, brought not just changes in power to Jiang Chen, but also physical transformations.

Before, Jiang Chen’s physical body could only compare to top-grade Innate Magic Treasures, but at this moment, his body has broken through once again, reaching a state rivaling an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

In other words, even if Jiang Chen stood still, one would need to use an Innate Spiritual Treasure in order to break his defense.

However, the strength of his physical body was not the greatest change. The biggest change was that with the completion of Jiang Chen’s Ancient Martial Arts, the most primal mark inside him awakened.

From the deepest parts of his bloodline, mysterious power emerged, transforming into a series of profound runes, brandishing themselves onto Jiang Chen’s flesh and blood.

The Innate Heaven and Earth runes are peerless Dao symbols comprehended by Human Ancestor Suirenshi from the Innate Treasure, Heaven, and Earth Cauldron. The Human Race’s clan-defending grand formation, the Innate Heaven and Earth Great Formation, was created based on these runes.

But initially, these runes were not used to derive formation techniques, but to inscribe within the body.

The Human Ancestor knew well that even if Ancient Martial Arts were completed, and the power to contend with an Innate Dao Sovereign was obtained, there was an essential difference when compared to a true Innate Dao Sovereign.

In order to make Ancient Martial Arts more powerful, the Human Ancestor thought of many methods, among which the most successful was to brand the Innate Heaven and Earth runes into the flesh.

Thus, the body could confirm with Heaven and Earth, transforming into a Heaven and Earth Cauldron which could smelt everything in the world.

Upon achieving Ancient Martial Arts, Dao patterns naturally formed, body becoming the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, with Qi-blood as fire, smelting everything.

One could see that with the evolution of the Innate Heaven and Earth runes, within Jiang Chen’s body, if there was a shadow of a large four-legged, double-eared cauldron, and it seemed to be appearing.

The attacks of Zao Chi and Luli Venerable rushed into Jiang Chen’s body, before even detonating, they were refined by the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, becoming his own power.

This is the power of Ancient Martial Arts, any incoming force can be refined and integrated into one’s self.

"You two seemed to have been enjoying yourselves, now it’s my turn." Looking at the two, a cruel smile appeared on Jiang Chen’s face.

Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s figure appeared in front of the Luli Venerable and he fiercely smashed his fist into the Venerable’s face.

With a bang, Luli Venerable’s head was directly blown up by Jiang Chen’s punch. At the critical moment, his True Spirit escaped from his body, thus managing to survive.

"How is this possible?"

His own pride-filled flesh was smashed by Jiang Chen’s punch, bringing about a huge shock to the Luli Venerable.

"Sharira, kill!"

At the brink of life and death, the Luli Venerable held nothing back. A dazzling light rose from his True Spirit, releasing thousands of rays of radiant light, sweeping towards Jiang Chen.

This is the Luli Venerable’s Sharira, his foundation. The fact that even the Sharira has been brought out shows that the Luli Venerable has begun to fight for his life.

"Kill!"

The Taichu Divine Sword emerged from Jiang Chen’s hand, bursting out with a brilliant swordlight, sweeping towards the Sharira with the intent to shatter it.

Until now, to put pressure on himself, Jiang Chen didn’t use any Magic Treasures. But now that he had broken through, he didn’t need to hold anything back and directly used the Taichu Divine Sword.

The swordlight shone out, and in an instant, an overwhelming sword qi swept over, as if to sever all vitality in heaven and earth.

The Taichu Sword was passed down by the Saint, the Shangqing Severing Heaven Sword Technique.

Following the Taichu Divine Sword, four Innate Spiritual Treasures; the Dutian Map, Shenxiao Jade Crown, Shangqing Spiritual Symbol, the Green Light Yin Yang Lamp, successively surged from Jiang Chen’s body, joining the Taichu Divine Sword to attack the Luli Venerable.

With five Innate Spiritual Treasures, four high-grade ones and one top-grade, unless the Medicine Master Liuli Buddha personally came, under this onslaught from the five Innate Spiritual Treasures, the Luli Venerable was doomed.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was overwhelming his opponent with treasures.
