The already opened Earth Shackles shattered with a crack under the continuous heavy blows, and the eighth layer, the heavy Earth Shackles, was fully opened.
The ultimate level of ancient martial arts is the Nine Heavens, and the pinnacle of physical cultivation is the Eight Gates. Therefore, when Jiang Yuan obtained the Eight Gates Body Technique, his physical body had already taken a big step ahead of the Qi Awakening cultivation level.
Under the Qiling system, he is only at the third stage of the Supreme God Realm, but in the ancient martial arts system, he is a terrifying body cultivator with an ultimate physical universe.
With the eighth shackle completely broken, Jiang Yuan's physical body became as solid as the earth, and countless attacks could no longer shake it.
"The Pulse of the World!"
Jiang Yuan looked at the sediment on the seabed. He never expected that there would be a trace of the World Vein at the bottom of the sea, hundreds of thousands of meters deep.
The appearance of the World Pulse at this moment proves one thing: the World Pulse wants to establish a connection with him through the Shackles of Earth.
The final three shackles, Man, Earth, and Heaven, are not merely adjectives, but truly represent the convergence of the power of Man, Earth, and Heaven.
At this moment, the world's pulse and physical body once again confirm the concept of the unity of the eight physical bodies: Pangu's body transformed into the world, and that world can also become a physical body.
The Annihilation Sea Puppet continued its relentless bombardment of Jiang Yuan, whose physical body was constantly being reassembled amidst the destruction. Yet, even so, he offered no resistance, silently enduring the Annihilation Sea Puppet's frenzied attacks.
If the physical body is like sand, then the Annihilation Sea Golem is a giant millstone. He needs the Annihilation Sea Golem to wear down his weak parts. Only the strongest parts of his physical body will remain.
Under the influence of the world's pulse, the earth dragons in the trenches churned and were squeezed out, until Jiang Yuan absorbed all the earth's power, making them part of his unbreakable earth shackles.
"It's time to end this!"
On the thirty-second time Jiang Yuan was shattered by the Annihilation Sea Puppet, he finally unlocked the most perfect Earth Shackles.
The Shackles of Earth, the eighth level of ancient martial arts, corresponds to the Supreme God Realm.
Jiang Yuan stretched out his body, and the violent power was amplified by every subtle movement he made. He was like a barrel of gunpowder that had been lit, and any move he made would cause an energy tsunami.
"Is this the perfect state of the Earth's Shackles?"
Jiang Yuan stepped on the ground, and a huge trench stretched out from beneath his feet.
"Your physical body seems to remind me of the great sea god!"
This was the first time the Silent Sea Golem had stopped its attack on its own initiative, simply because Jiang Yuan had displayed immense power, reminding it of its master, the Sea God.
However, upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "Not even close!"
The answer was ambiguous. The Silent Sea Puppet thought Jiang Yuan was ashamed of his inferiority, while Jiang Yuan said that the Sea God was far inferior to him.
After all, his physical body was comparable to that of Pangu, and the Sea God couldn't possibly compare to him in terms of physical strength when they were at the same level.
"You are worthy of making me unleash my strongest attack!"
At this moment, the Silent Sea Puppet held Jiang Yuan in high regard, and it was fortunate to have met someone on par with the Sea God.
"Alright, I'll take your move, and then I'll return the favor!"
Jiang Yuan's clothes were completely torn to shreds, and he was even more unrestrained in the sea, completely naked.
"Boundless—the ocean embraces all rivers!!"
The Annihilation Sea Golem brandished two chains, which at this moment acted like conduits connecting to the ocean, frantically transporting the ocean's power to the Annihilation Sea Golem.
The power it carries is increasing at a visible rate: one hundred million tons, one billion tons, ten billion tons, the numbers are constantly changing, just as it says, "the sea embraces all rivers." At this moment, the power of the Annihilation Sea Puppet has no upper limit.
It's as if numbers are just an adjective!
"Take this!"
The Annihilation Sea Golem unleashed its accumulated power to its peak. In the instant of contact, the entire sea area collapsed by a hundred meters. The fully quantified power was enough to destroy everything below the level of a god.
Jiang Yuan, standing at the very center of the sea, also suffered from the power of the Annihilation Sea Puppet's all-encompassing strength, but he did not retreat an inch. The eight portals surrounding him collapsed together with the sea as it went deeper.
"Hundreds of billions!"
"Trillion!"
"Oh!"
As Jiang Yuan continued to sink, he murmured to himself, his power increasing, "Even if it's a trillion, so what? Power is like a rootless duckweed; it's just a fleeting moment that will eventually vanish!"
"Come on, let it experience the true Eight Gates!"
Jiang Yuan's sinking momentum stopped, and the second portal, Kanmen, magnified a thousand times over, instantly creating what appeared to be an inextricable gate on the seabed.
The attack from the Annihilation Sea Golem was rendered ineffective.
An endless sea of annihilation surged into it, but to no avail.
This is the strongest underwater defense; at least, no one within the Nascent Soul realm can break through it.
"You've really gone to a lot of trouble to fill the Kan Water Gate for me!"
Jiang Yuan did not close the Gate of Rest; this was his way of responding to the attack from the Silent Sea Puppet.
He accepted the challenge, but he hasn't retaliated yet!
"Shackles of the Earth, break!"
Jiang Yuan's body swelled up, and his enormous eternal Dharma form stood on the seabed. He stood on the earth, drawing upon the immense power of the earth from the sea.
"What a pity, the conditions here aren't right for me to unlock the Secret of Life!"
The enormous Dharma image whispered in the sea, revealing that it had already mastered the eighth of the Nine Secrets—the Secret of Life. Back in the black market, the Death God's symbiotic ghost fire, Hellfire, had relied on the Secret of Life to survive until now.
Of course, since the Hellfire became the spirit of the Book of Life and Death, the secrets of life naturally belonged to him.
However, Jiang Yuan still had some concerns because he had not yet obtained his seventh secret, the Life Secret.
The secret of his fate is held by the people of the Astrology Palace, namely Gong Suxin from the divination lineage and Zhong Litong from the astrology lineage. Last time, during his faked death, he sent Gong Suxin to negotiate with Zhong Litong, but the result was not optimistic.
