Chapter 1409: The Divine Pulse
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Crystal Pagoda hung quietly above the mountain peak. Suddenly, light burst out from it.
As the pagoda started to shake, two figures shot out from it and landed on the mountain peak. The two figures were Mu Chen and Ancestor Xuan Tian.
Hoof.
When Ancestor Xuan Tian came out of the pagoda, he could not help taking in a deep breath of air that was filled with spiritual energy. It had been unbearable for him the past few days when he was suppressed inside the pagoda.
“Elder Xuan Tian, from now on, we are family. I hope you will look out for me,” Mu Chen said, while cupping his fist as he looked at Ancestor Xuan Tian.
Ancestor Xuan Tian smiled wryly and felt depressed. He had not expected to fail in his mission and be imprisoned by Mu Chen. He had also been threatened by Mu Chen to become the Elder of the Mu Estate…
Although it was only for 30 years, he had lost his freedom. Such circumstances would have been depressing thing to any Heavenly Sovereign.
Given his status, not only could he be hired in the Mu Estate, but he could be hired as a higher echelon by any of the top forces in The Great Thousand World and be paid handsomely. However, since he had fallen into Mu Chen’s hands, he could forget about being paid, as he had to provide free labor for Mu Chen for 30 years!
Since he had sworn to Mu Chen back in the pagoda, he had to keep his word. It was extremely important to a Heavenly Sovereign to keep his promise.
If he went back on his word, it would go against his conscience. Then, there would be a scar deep within him that would affect his future cultivation greatly.
Thus, Mu Chen was not the least bit worried that Ancestor Xuan Tian would run away from him. Likewise, Ancestor Xuan Tian could rest assured that Mu Chen would not change his mind 30 years from now.
“I wonder if Elder Xuan Tian can enlighten me…” Mu Chen said amicably as he sat cross-legged on the mountain peak.
Ancestor Xuan Tian stole a glance at him and asked, “Are you referring to the way to perfect the Heavenly Spiritual Body?”
Mu Chen nodded. When he had exchanged blows with Ancestor Xuan Tian earlier, he already knew the way to perfecting the Heavenly Spiritual Body. However, he still had to ask Ancestor Xuan Tian about the details, as he did not want anything to go wrong.
Ancestor Xuan Tian sat down cross-legged, and after thinking for a while, he did not evade the question. After all, this was not a secret, and even if he did not share it with Mu Chen, Mu Chen would be able to find it out through other means.
“I think that you already know how to perfect the Heavenly Spiritual Body…” Ancestor Xuan Tian waved his sleeve and said. “The Heavenly Spiritual Body is the mark of a Heavenly Sovereign. The physical body can change into a spiritual body at any time, and the combat force is really amazing! It can become one with the space, and the spiritual energy in the body is endless.”
He then added, “However, this is only the beginning stage of the Heavenly Spiritual Body. One has to refine the Spiritual Pulse that is deep within the physical body in order to merge with the Heavenly Spiritual Body. By doing so, the Heavenly Spiritual Body can then gradually be perfected. The perfected Heavenly Spiritual Body is not only marvelous, but it will evolve into a Spiritual Pulse Super Power.”
“A Spiritual Pulse Super Power?” Mu Chen’s gaze froze as he asked, “Is the Stellar System Diagram that you displayed earlier the Spiritual Pulse Super Power?”
Earlier, when he had exchanged blows with Ancestor Xuan Tian, Ancestor Xuan Tian had used this to fend off the fierce attacks from Mu Chen’s two replicas. His defense power was indeed amazing!
“Any other ordinary Rare Super Power could not match up with the defense power of my Stellar System Diagram. If I was to fight with other opponents who are of my same level, they would not be able to counter my blows like you.” Having said this, Ancestor Xuan Tian looked strangely at Mu Chen. He must be wondering why he was so unlucky to have met such a powerful person like Mu Chen.
The Qi into Trinity was one of the 36 Rare Super Powers in The Great Thousand World, and even a Divine Heavenly Sovereign yearned to possess it. However, the Super Power had fallen into Mu Chen’s hands, which caused many people to become envious of him.
Mu Chen smiled and asked, “Is there any pattern for the evolution of the Spiritual Pulse Super Power?”
“How the Spiritual Pulse Super Power will evolve depends on the cultivation technique of the cultivator.” Ancestor Xuan Tian pondered for a while, then said, “As for the level of the Spiritual Pulse Super Power, it will depend on the strength of the person’s Spiritual Pulse.”
“Oh?” Mu Chen stared at Ancestor Xuan Tian as he listened attentively to him.
“When you start cultivating, you will learn this. The Spiritual Pulse is divided into three levels, which are the Heavens, Earth, and Human levels. It has been rumored that there is a rare Spiritual Pulse above the Heavens Spiritual Pulse that is known as the Divine Grade Spiritual Pulse. So far, no one has yet to possess it,” Ancestor Xuan TIan explained.
“Although the Spiritual Pulse comes in different forms, it is classified according to the numbers one to nine. One to two belong to the Human Grade Spiritual Pulse, three to four are the Earth Grade Human Pulse, five to six are the Heavens Grade… And seven to nine are the Divine Pulse. Back then, when I refined the Spiritual Pulse, it turned into six stars that belong to the Heavens Grade Spiritual Pulse,” he added.
Ancestor Xuan Tian’s voice was filled with envy. “I have heard that some of the Divine Grade Spiritual Pulses evolve into powerful Spiritual Pulse Super Powers. They are classified under the supreme level of the Rare Super Power. You can even say that they are on par with the 36 Rare Super Powers!”
When Mu Chen heard this, he suddenly looked grim. He knew how mysterious and horrifying the power of the 36 Rare Super Powers were. When one possessed this level of Super Powers, his peers would be no match for him!
However, Mu Chen was well aware that it was rare to possess the 36 Rare Super Powers. If he had not been fortunate to chance upon one, it would have been very tough for him to obtain it.
At this moment, when he heard Ancestor Xuan Tian mention the Spiritual Pulse Super Power that was comparable to the 36 Rare Super Powers that could be evolved from the Divine Grade Spiritual Pulse, he was intrigued.
“Divine Grade Spiritual Pulse?” Mu Chen muttered to himself as his eyes shone brightly.
When he first started cultivating, he had no idea which Spiritual Pulse he possessed. His Spiritual Pulse seemed to be so well hidden that he could not even sense it. Although Ji Xuan possessed the Heavens Grade Spiritual Pulse, Mu Chen did not think that it was powerful.
“At this stage, I should be able to know the Spiritual Pulse that is in my body.” Mu Chen took a breath. He was determined to find out the level of his Spiritual Pulse, no matter how well hidden it was!
“I will have to trouble Elder Xuan Tian to watch over me for some time,” Mu Chen said as he smiled at Ancestor Xuan Tian.
As everything in the Mu Estate was in place, Mu Chen could grab ahold of the opportunity to perfect his Heavenly Spiritual Body. He would be heading to the Budur Ancient Clan, and there would definitely be an earth-shattering fight. As such, he had to be able to control and build up his strength in order to prepare for that.
When Ancestor Xuan Tian heard Mu Chen’s request, he sighed. The Estate Master was not shy in asking for a favor, and he had immediately given him a task to perform.
Ancestor Xuan Tian nodded and moved his body. He then appeared at a distance and sat down cross-legged.
After taking a deep breath, he was taken aback. Apparently, he had noticed the pure spiritual energy that was in the Ancient Celestial Palace.
“This must be the Ancient Celestial Palace. The Heavenly Emperor has indeed built an amazing place.” Ancestor Xuan Tian nodded to himself.
Given his experience, he knew that no ordinary top forces in The Great Thousand World were able to provide such a great cultivation place. Only the supreme powers were capable of doing so.
As a Heavenly Sovereign, this was a great cultivation place for him, and it would benefit him greatly. In this case, the 30 years that he had to remain as the Elder of the Mu Estate was worth it.
When Mu Chen saw Ancestor Xuan Tian’s action, he smiled and shut his eyes.
He focused his mind and a spark appeared in his physical body. His flesh, bones, and meridians seemed to come alive and they filled his body with vitality.
Mu Chen’s mind searched deep into his physical body, but even at this level, he was unable to locate his Spiritual Pulse. As his mind continued to settle in, he seemed to shuttle through time.
Although he continued to sense the Spiritual Pulse, he was unable to detect anything. However, Mu Chen did not give up. He was calm as he continued with his search.
After two hours, something suddenly caught Mu Chen’s attention. It was as though he had broken through a barrier. The scene before him changed, and Mu Chen’s mind came to a strange space.
This space was chaotic. It was as if a mysterious fog had filled the space and blocked all if his sensors.
“Why is there fog all around?” When Mu Chen’s mind noticed the fog, he was taken aback. He sensed that the fog was caused by a human, and it had blocked off all of his sensors on purpose!
Initially, Mu Chen was shocked. However, he soon calmed himself down. Apparently, this must be done by someone before the spiritual energy in his body had been formed.
He deduced that it must have been done by his mother when he was born. She had kept his Spiritual Pulse deep within his body!
Apparently, his mother had done it to prevent the Budur Ancient Clan from using some means to check on his Spiritual Pulse in order to track him down. His mother had clearly gone to great lengths in order to protect him.
Mother, thank you, Mu Chen said in his heart ,and he felt the warmth from his mother at that moment.
However, I am no longer a baby and have grown up. Even if the fog is gone, no one can do anything to me now.
The mysterious fog seemed to hear Mu Chen’s inner voice. It suddenly shook and started to dissipate at a visible speed.
After the fog dissipated, light burst out from the chaotic environment. It shone from deep within, and when Mu Chen’s mind looked at it, he saw that it had started to take the shape of a Purple Moon.
A Purple Moon? Mu Chen was shocked. According to what Ancestor Xuan Tian had told him, this was the lowest grade of the Human Grade Spiritual Pulse!
As Mu Chen was feeling puzzled, another light appeared around the Purple Moon. Following that, one after another Purple Moons started to take shape.
In just a short while, eight Purple Moons had appeared in the chaotic environment. They hung high up in the sky and exuded a mysterious light.
When the eight Purple Moons appeared deep inside Mu Chen’s body, the surface of his physical body burst out with light. Eight dazzling pictures of moons appeared on his skin. Then, a mighty power suddenly exuded from his body.
When Ancestor Xuan Tian, who was some distance away, saw what had happened, he was stunned. He could not help but shout in amazement, “Eight Moons appearing at the same time! “This guy possesses the Divine Grade Spiritual Pulse!”
