Stronger from Earth

Chapter 375 - 374: Second Advancement

The Spirit Valley villa district remains unchanged, with few figures and all passing by being dignitaries. As for Wang Xuan’s villa, it still appears uninhabited.

Yet, even in this state, there are Earth-level creatures wandering outside, scanning within with Divine Thought, but Wang Xuan’s profound array skills leave the alien creatures unaware, seemingly as if everything is normal.

"He still hasn’t returned." A figure hidden in the darkness suddenly sighed, apparently a humanoid creature.

A Demon Lord flicked its tail, sneering, "Are you regretful? If he had returned, you’d die the moment you investigate. It’s a miracle your brain isn’t soaked, and yet you still regret."

This demon is smart, hoping Wang Xuan’s figure won’t appear in the villa district, prolonging their lives rather than truly becoming cannon fodder.

Upon arriving on Earth, they’ve faced heavy casualties for unclear reasons, for the Mother Star, for themselves, or perhaps due to coercion, as they are just weak Earth-level creatures.

On Earth, they can only hide, fearing discovery by human Immortals. Most powerful figures reside in sects and large families, thus moving outside risks exposure.

"Have you noticed not a single cockroach has emerged from the villa?" the demon spoke, raising doubts hard to quell.

"Really?" The Evolver from the Evolution Realm frowned slightly, ready to investigate personally, as Divine Thought still showed no figures in the villa.

The Demon Lord grabbed him, saying, "You fool, why not find a Wizard to examine using special means?"

With that, this Demon Lord’s figure vanished, unwilling to face danger, even if a scapegoat is found.

...

The Tower of Space-Time stands tall, like a pillar supporting the heavens, spanning the Cosmos, eternally enduring with infinite power.

The power of time envelops Wang Xuan, his body seemingly in an independent spacetime, unaffected by the outside world, everything outside him halted.

Shoujo Wei’s eyes blinked, then never opened again, as a wind-blown ant from the wall paused in mid-air, unable to fall to the ground.

Wang Xuan cannot leave the space where his body resides, but he can cultivate, letting consciousness operate to control everything bodily.

The Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art is practiced, a forbidden Divine Art, and as its Dharma Gate suggests, Wang Xuan begins condensing the flesh’s essence.

Unknown how much time passed, a drop of golden blood tinged with purple formed, comparable in essence to five times the other blood, called heart-blood.

Pure Source Power flows out, compensating the energy consumed during cultivation, maintaining the Tower of Space-Time’s operation.

In independent time, he condenses essence blood drop by drop, continually replacing the original blood of the flesh.

When all blood was replaced, Wang Xuan felt his Life Force nearly doubled!

The principle of the Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art is akin to the Blood Exchange Realm, but it condenses special essence blood, making this refining process far surpass the Blood Exchange Realm.

Each junction in the Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art is perfected by Celestial Race Demigods, achieving the utmost extent to allow the cultivator maximum transformation without side effects.

The transformation process resembles nurturing Gu, ordinary Gu Insects birthing a Gu King, countless Gu Kings battling together nurturing a Gu Emperor, theoretically enabling limitless transformation for creatures.

Such refining principles have been researched for eons in the Celestial Divine Realm, reaching an acme.

Wang Xuan knows each cell in his blood experienced transformation, being more distinct than other body’s cells.

Blood delivers nutrients to other body tissues, continuously replacing cells, marking the second stage of a cycle, resulting in a full-body transformation once complete.

A cell’s abundance of life and energy equals five times before, the flesh’s transformation enhancing Magical Power and Primordial Spirit.

Wang Xuan estimates his combat power ascended two tiers, equivalent to his Clone Emperor Xuan during Pure Yang Peak.

Even if an Early Jade Platform Realm cultivator stands before him, he can crush them!

This process, despite storing ample Essence Qi Golden Core in acupoints and Dantian, exhausted everything. After a cycle, the Source Power value discreetly dropped by two million.

"The Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art records that after a cycle of transformation, long-term cultivation must follow to heighten the flesh’s potential, autonomously appearing as more superior essence blood, representing a separation process."

He reckons it resembles a county high school admitting many township freshmen annually, with many kids growing stronger in a highly competitive environment, automatically distinguishing talents.

"Flowers in an Instant Great Success (Accelerate possible), accelerate?"

Wang Xuan directly elevated this Divine Technique; with enough Source Power value, he can cultivate it to the Limit Realm.

Consciousness operates in independent time, Wang Xuan studying Flowers in an Instant Divine Techniques, spending one and a half million Source Power value to reach the limit level.

"Flowers in an Instant Divine Technique involves numerous elements like devouring, transforming, creation, time, etc. Cultivating it to the limit level enhances my understanding of the Path of Creation and grasping the Path of Time." Wang Xuan benefited immensely.

Unbeknownst to him, his flesh also completed the sedimentation process, his combat power discreetly heightened.

"Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art Second Cycle Entry (Accelerate possible), accelerate?" prompted the Time Spirit.

"Accelerate!" Wang Xuan replied without hesitation.

His consciousness again plunged into cultivation; this time executing the second cycle of Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art, Wang Xuan clearly felt strained, the process arduous.

Due to the unimaginable benefits from the first cycle, his combat power jumped two tiers directly, possessing the capacity to defeat a Middle and Early Jade Platform Stage combatant.

Close eyes, open eyes.

Shoujo Wei, within a blink, sensed the changed Wang Xuan, his aura seemingly deepened several times, his presence peculiar.

Wang Xuan’s blood carried a faint purple tint, the purple-gold flesh extraordinarily mystical, truly unlike ordinary people.

Another breath passed, Shoujo Wei noticed Wang Xuan’s momentum doubled in her thought interval again!

The purple in his body grew more apparent, the golden glow couldn’t suppress it. If the purple increased further, they’d balance equally.

Suddenly, Wang Xuan opened his eyes, a smile curling his lips, then stood stretching. His eyes revealed fatigue, along with deep solitude and indifference.

"Why did your aura suddenly elevate so much? Could you have broken through the Great Realm?" Shoujo Wei asked surprised.

Wang Xuan lounged on the sofa, replying lazily, "Guess?"

With significant progress, he naturally rejoiced but refrained from revealing this to the alien race. Though the girl is beautiful and naive, she hailed from the Celestial Divine Realm.

As Shoujo Wei cultivated the Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art for years, naturally she sensed hints from Wang Xuan’s changed aura, her eyes showing astonishment.

"You’ve broken through the Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art?! Impossible!"

How long has it been? Since she imparted this art to Wang Xuan, only two days have passed.

Two days yielding results from the Extreme Metamorphosis Divine Art? Preposterous!

Before Wang Xuan spoke, he noticed masses of spiders and rats surging outside the villa, densely carpet-like in gray and black, horrifyingly numerous.

Frowning slightly, Wang Xuan sneered, "Seems like those seeking death have arrived."

Setting arrays to conceal himself solely offered time to investigate more alien race information, yet he hadn’t acted when they barged in.
