Chapter 380: A Flesh Like the Blazing Sun

Shen Qing reached out, plucked the treasure fruit, and in a few quick motions stuffed it into his mouth.

In an instant, the vast energy surged through his whole body.

This power far surpassed any previous treasure fruit.

Shen Qing's eyes lit up: "No wonder it's a treasure fruit that grew by absorbing the world's power."

Although he was still marveling with his mouth, his other actions were not slow.

The Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique operated, a roaring sound arose; this was the muscles on Shen Qing's body bellowing.

And in the outside world.

Heaven and earth were undergoing drastic changes.

The surrounding evil qi swiftly gathered toward Shen Qing, providing energy for his physical breakthrough.

Every inch of Shen Qing's flesh and blood was ascending, his bones being remolded, his blood likewise boiling; all his blood gradually changed from bright red to brilliant golden, each drop as heavy as a mountain range, as if it could crush the entire world.

The Martial Emperor and others far away in the distant Evil Clan's royal court all turned their heads toward Shen Qing's direction.

Shen Wendao's face showed a faint smile: "Old Martial, this little guy is getting closer and closer to us."

The Martial Emperor also shook his head: "This speed is too fast; perhaps he can surpass us and forge the new path even quicker."

Kai Er sat on a nearby stone: "After this breakthrough, he's truly stronger than me for real—it's terrifying; he must be breaking through his physical body."

Li Lun fell silent, wondering how he remembered that when he first arrived at the border battlefield, he happened to encounter Shen Qing's breakthrough; how long ago was that, and now another major breakthrough?

Shen Qing's breakthrough continued uninterrupted for nine days, each day his aura growing stronger, until the tenth day.

Above the cloud heavens, all evil qi was dispelled, the Milky Way hung inverted, and billions of stars suddenly brightened in unison.

Shen Qing took a step and arrived above the cloud heavens.

In an instant, golden light burst forth, as if sunlight were once again showering upon this barren land.

By this point, Shen Qing's physical body was no longer a mere fleshly body but a humanoid sun, every inch of muscle radiating brilliant golden light—this is the brilliance of life exalted to its utmost.

Shen Qing slowly opened his eyes; golden light shot out, piercing heaven and earth and the void, his black hair flying behind him, each strand like a divine weapon continually rending the surrounding void.

"Is this the thirteenth layer of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique?"

Shen Qing whispered softly.

But even so, wherever the sound wave passed, the void shattered like glass into fragments that fell away; the remaining evil qi was also blown away, the myriad stars twinkling across the sky, yet their radiance was all obscured by Shen Qing.

Shen Qing could feel that his physical body had grown strong to an inconceivable degree; even without any other means, he could easily shatter the void.

Shen Qing took a step, and the entire land trembled continuously.

"Third Layer World? I hope it's somewhat interesting."

While Shen Qing was undergoing his breakthrough.

The cleansing of the Evil Clan World was also proceeding in full swing; the Divine Farm Institute, Heavenly Craft Workshop, and others entered the Evil Spirit World, while the lingering evil spirits, having lost their evil god, were no match for the Great Martial and the Holy Luo Empire, basically being swept away in one push.

The millennia-long war between humans and evil spirits finally came to an end.

The Martial Emperor was consulting with Li Lun.

The Martial Emperor nodded: "There should be nothing left; when the time comes and we return, we can prepare to set out for the Third Layer World."

Speaking of the Third Layer World, the eyes of the Martial Emperor and Shen Wendao both lit up.

The new path they had forged was strong, and both could feel that their new path still had room to reach an even higher level.

But they always fell just short, unable to take that step.

As for the Third Layer World, according to Li Lun, whether heaven-defiers or rebels, there are people dedicated to researching the new path, and their achievements are not insignificant.

If they could learn something from those people, they might be able to advance even further.

Li Lun also had some anticipation in his eyes: "The Third Layer World has been silent for too long; your arrival might bring some new variables."

Li Lun said that, but mainly it was Shen Qing; after a brief association, he had realized that Shen Qing was an unstoppable demon pill.

Kai Er, sitting to the side, spoke: "When the time comes, you go; I won't."

"Someone still needs to watch here; if another strong enemy arrives, we won't be left without any time to react."

The Martial Emperor and Shen Wendao both looked at Kai Er; Shen Wendao said: "Kai Er, according to Li Lun, the Third Layer World likely holds a secret formula for continued strengthening—you really don't intend to go?"

Kai Er leaned back in his chair, picking up the rum on the table: "Forget it, forget it; that belongs to your world, and you still have Shen Qing."

"I've reached my limit; there's no talent left for me to exploit, and I trust you—once you've completely conquered the Third Layer World, I'll go enjoy my blessings then."

Kai Er laughed heartily and took a sip of rum.

"Everyone has their own aspirations; Shen Wendao didn't press further, merely speaking."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Kai Er."

Kai Er nodded.

Just then, Shen Qing also returned to Pass-Heaven City and entered the secret chamber.

As soon as he entered the secret chamber, the eyes of Shen Wendao and the Martial Emperor both flashed with sharpness.

They both felt the strength of Shen Qing's physical body, far exceeding their estimates by a great margin.

The next moment, the Martial Emperor moved, lunging directly at Shen Qing, grabbing at his collar with one hand—no killing intent, but the motion was extremely swift.

Shen Qing slightly turned, raised his hand, and precisely seized the Martial Emperor's wrist.

In an instant, a scorching aura surged forth; everyone felt the formidable aura emanating from Shen Qing's physical body, every inch of muscle and every drop of blood roaring, that sound like it came from the moment heaven and earth were first opened.

Kai Er's mouth curled upward; it seemed his decision was unproblematic—only someone with talent like Shen Qing deserved to stand on that higher stage.

And his task was simply to handle logistics well.

Li Lun was dumbfounded; the strength brought by Shen Qing's breakthrough this time also somewhat exceeded his expectations.

If Shen Qing could block the Martial Emperor's punch, it would indicate that their physical bodies are likely evenly matched; even if there is a difference, it wouldn't be large.

Then now the only difference between Shen Qing and the Martial Emperor lies in the new path and primordial qi.

But Shen Qing possesses four supreme powers that can stand equal to the Martial Emperor's new path.

That would mean that Shen Qing's gap to the Martial Emperor is only vital energy, but you must know that Shen Qing is currently only at the third level of the Martial Saint realm.

Li Lun swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he faintly had a premonition that he seemed to have brought back a peerless magic pill.

The third-layer world is likely to get lively!
