Chapter 22: Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body!

He sat silently on the ground, recalling all the cultivation techniques from before the Great Destruction, each one returning to Fang Can’s mind.

“Divine Elephant Subduing Hell Power,” “Six Desires Dividing Demon Chapter,” “Magnetic Field Rotation,” “Burning Decree,” “Nine Calamities of Heaven and Man,” “Dragonless Heart Method,” “Eight-Nine Mystery Skill”…

All manner of techniques and their corresponding effects rose within Fang Can’s heart.

But the more he visualized, the less confident he became.

Because to visualize a technique in the mind required not only logical coherence but also payment of a corresponding cost.

Yet the costs of those famous techniques were all so exorbitant that Fang Can could not afford them.

Description:

The host’s thoughts converge, using delusion as foundation, flesh and blood as altar, will as anchor, and qi and blood as offering to begin visualization and manifestation.

Begin manifesting 【Divine Elephant Subduing Hell Power】

Manifestation progress: 0.0000000… 1%

—Estimated time required: 99999999999…99 trillion years—

…

Looking at the panel’s content, Fang Can felt no surprise.

The time and energy required to conjure an invincible technique out of thin air far exceeded what a mere mortal like him could afford.

“If so, what if I gradually lower the requirements?” Fang Can pondered.

He decided to abandon the idea of creating a complete technique outright, and instead focus on manifesting a technique for the Transformation of Mortal Form realm.

After closing his eyes and visualizing for a stick of incense, Fang Can glanced at the description bar: to manifest the Transformation of Mortal Form technique with the effects of Divine Elephant Subduing Hell Power, only ninety million years were needed.

“That’s simple enough—just chip away at the effects step by step, build the framework first, and let the universe handle the rest.”

Fang Can lowered his head, thinking how to maximize benefit with minimal resources.

“First, the energy issue: each training session requires massive food intake. Better to change how energy is absorbed. Then efficiency: eighty-eight dantians are too crude. Better to strengthen every cell, leaving no weakness…”

With these thoughts, he reduced the requirement from direct energy generation to zero-point energy, then to dark matter, until finally downgrading it to sunlight.

Finally, the foundation issue: he originally wanted to extend transcendence down to atoms, then settled for molecules, then nanometers, until finally settling on cells—barely manageable.

Having simplified the requirements to this point, Fang Can took a deep breath and looked at the description bar.

Begin manifesting 【Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body · Initial Version】

Manifestation progress: 0.000001%

—Estimated time required: 594 days 6 hours—

…

“Can only simplify this far.”

Fang Can sighed, accepting reality—he had cut everything he could; if he cut any further, there’d be nothing left to see.

More than fifty minutes had passed since he swallowed a massive dose of arsenic, yet Fang Can still leaned against the windowsill, expressionless.

Before the deadline arrived, Fang Can pulled a coin from his pocket and flipped it: “Will I die from arsenic poisoning? Heads yes, tails no.”

Watching the coin land face-up, Fang Can made up his mind.

Suddenly, the manifestation time on his panel sharply shortened.

—Estimated time required: 296 days 5 hours—

“Hmph, the arsenic is finally being digested?” Fang Can’s eyes held a trace of satisfaction; he ignored it and plunged fully into further manifesting the visualization.

As the arsenic—seventy to eighty times the lethal dose—further fused with his cells, Fang Can’s “Reverse Fortune” and “Unyielding Resolve” talents both reached their limits, desperately hoping to save this living father of a man.

After several minutes, Fang Can began experiencing violent gastrointestinal reactions: nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain.

He also suffered headaches, dizziness, and similar symptoms, but he ignored them all, dismissing them as illusions before success.

But just before the death-reel flickered before his eyes, the second talent’s hand began to exert force.

Under the second talent’s stimulation, Fang Can’s cells erupted with terrifying vitality, frantically resisting the negative state caused by arsenic merging with his blood.

—Estimated time required: 2 hours 30 minutes—

With the talent’s frantic boost, the “Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body” began advancing steadily.

But outside the room, Jiang Ningan grew restless, for she sensed Fang Can’s once strong, vigorous heartbeat gradually weakening, his breath becoming faint and intermittent.

“Could this guy actually die in there?” Jiang Ningan fretted.

She had always been calm and composed, but today this boy had stirred her emotions countless times—she simply had no way to handle a madman.

Looking at the closed door, she hesitated, then ultimately did not burst in—she simply waited silently outside.

One hour… two hours… three hours…

Time crept forward slowly, and the girl’s mood sank to its lowest point.

Because the man inside had completely stopped breathing and his heartbeat had ceased—he was dead.

In that moment, guilt flooded the girl’s heart; she felt she had talked him to death.

Before she could sink further into self-reproach, a powerful heartbeat suddenly pounded into her ears.

“Thump… thump… thump…”

Each stronger than the last, the heartbeat kindled hope in her heart—could this little madman still be alive?

Under her tense gaze, the door handle turned gently, and a slightly gaunt figure stepped slowly out.

Yes—he stepped out. She had watched with her own eyes just moments ago as Fang Can broke his own legs.

Before she could think further, when she saw Fang Can’s face, she was terrified—he bled from all seven orifices.

“You… you’re not dead?” Jiang Ningan stammered.

If not for his heartbeat, she might have thought this man had become a vengeful ghost come to claim her life.

“Why would I die?”

“You’re bleeding from all seven orifices, and you’re walking—aren’t you a ghost now?”

“Bleeding from the orifices is bleeding from the orifices; death is death—how can they be the same?” Fang Can wiped the dried blood from his face calmly.

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon the panel.

Description:

You have successfully manifested the technique: 【Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body】

Flesh Transformation: 3.85%

…

Unknown to anyone, as morning sunlight streamed into the room, Fang Can’s technique began to activate automatically.

His cells began actively consuming external sunlight, converting it into energy to strengthen his body.

Even if Fang Can never trained again, his flesh transformation rate would rise automatically.
