Chapter 801: Chapter 441: Heaven and Earth Infusion!
Blood Exchange!
Blood is the root of the Martial Body, the essential foundation of a living being’s existence, and the key link between ‘Qi’ and ‘Body’.
The Martial Arts body consists of flesh beneath the skin, tendons within the flesh, tendons surrounding the bones, and finally the five viscera and six organs. From the core of the Jade Marrow, only ‘Blood’ ties the entire body together, connecting the internal organs and bone marrow to the external skin, flesh, and fascia. This is the fundantal link that connects everything.
It can be said that the cultivation of Body Tempering Martial Arts, from outer layer to inner refinent, from skin toughening and body refining to the First Realm of Marrow Cleansing and the achievent of the Martial Body, is the process of building and perfecting each component, culminating in the stage of Blood Exchange to achieve full integration!
Before the Blood Exchange.
The Vigorous Inner Breath condensed by a martial artist is gathered through the inhaling and exhaling of the Power of Heaven and Earth by the five viscera and six organs. Once they step into the Blood Exchange stage, Martial Blood thoroughly perates the entire body, allowing the utilization of Qi and Blood from the Martial Body to refine Vigorous Inner Breath. This marks the complete Major Achievent of the ‘Inner World’, capable of wielding trendous power with a re flick of a finger.
To battle a Blood Exchange practitioner while still within the Marrow Cleansing Realm is nearly impossible. Even the nine Qiankun Grandmasters who were considered invincible within the master realm and practiced the Qiankun Path throughout history were no match for any Blood Exchange practitioner, at most able to escape from their grasp.
This is because they fundantally lack the power to fully integrate the Martial Body and cannot exert the full potential of its strength.
Like ordinary people, if one can utilize twenty to thirty percent of their muscular strength, they are already considered experts. Practitioners of martial arts techniques might reach forty to fifty percent, Grandmasters up to seventy to eighty percent, but only at the Blood Exchange Realm can one truly push the physical body to its limits and exert every drop of power to the extre!
At present.
Chen Mu had been in this world for fifteen years, practicing martial arts for nearly thirteen years. After enduring skin toughening, body refining, tendon changing, bone tempering, viscera refining, organ strengthening, and the Seven Realms of Marrow Cleansing, he finally approached the threshold of Blood Exchange and crossed it in a single leap!
Almost at the mont when Chen Mu’s Mysterious Pass at the crown of his head was fully cleared, the Power of Heaven and Earth within a radius of over ten miles began to violently surge, converging on him with overwhelming force!
With a crash.
The Power of Heaven and Earth surged like tides, penetrating down from Chen Mu’s Heavenly Spirit, through his Mysterious Pass, and inundating his entire body. It coursed through his limbs and bones, pervading every blood vessel and ridian, flushing every piece of flesh, every inch of ridian, and every drop of blood!
This process was far from comfortable. It felt almost like ten thousand needles piercing every part of the body, deep into the flesh. The sensation was impossible to block out, as every sense in his body was awakened by the surging Power of Heaven and Earth, sharpened to the extre, allowing Chen Mu to clearly feel the presence of every drop of his blood!
However.
Such pain was nothing to a person capable of taking the step into Blood Exchange. It could render an ordinary person unconscious in an instant, torturing them to the brink of death countless tis between unconsciousness and awakening. Yet, for soone whose Martial Will was refined to the extre, whose heart was as clear as a still water, it was bearable.
At this mont, Chen Mu was enduring not only the physical pain of Blood Purification, but also the tempering of his soul. When his Mysterious Pass opened, his Soul Heart, though still within his body, was no longer sheltered by it, but fully exposed to the Power of Heaven and Earth, undergoing the sa purification as his flesh.
Just then.
From a distance, one could see Chen Mu sitting cross-legged, his clothes scattered into dust under the pressure of the surging Power of Heaven and Earth, exposing his unparalleled Qiankun Martial Body, glowing like the sun, emitting intense Blood Qi that could burn all things!
At the top of his head, a faint halo emitted light, resembling a full moon, reflecting the majestic Blood Qi of his body.
This was the phenonon of a martial artist impacting the Blood Exchange.
The Fiery Sun descending upon the body!
The Bright Moon positioned overhead!
To a martial artist, the Soul Heart is an exceptionally elusive thing. Before entering Blood Exchange, it is said to hide deep within the body, but is more accurately a part of the body itself, inseparable. When the body dies, the soul perishes, the Soul Heart returning to silent annihilation with the death of the body.
Only at the step of Blood Exchange does the Soul Heart separate from the body in a true sense for the first ti. It doesn’t materialize into a miniature human as depicted in many strange tales, but instead appears as a glowing halo suspended above the head like a bright moon.
Chen Mu could feel the nurturing effect of the Red Birth Fruit on his exceptionally strong Soul Heart, which was becoming more substantial and material under the flushing and refining of the Power of Heaven and Earth, almost ready to manifest in the world.
Simultaneously.
He could distinctly feel the vastness of the Da Xuan World, the boundless expanse of the Heavens and Earth, even feeling a sense of weightless freedom that seed to lift his Soul Heart to the Heavens Vault, rging with Heaven and Earth, overlooking the mortal world.
At that mont, the excruciating pain of ten thousand needles piercing his flesh felt like a re tornt in the mortal realm. Scenes from the first two years he spent in this world — the darkness, the struggles at the bottom rung of society — flashed before his eyes. Even deeper, blurry mories of the trials and tribulations from his past life surfaced, replaying the hardships and sufferings he endured.
