As soon as the last battle ended, the brightly lit center of the military base received the news, or rather watched the live broadcast filmed by Master Chongzhou Wuxiu.
After watching Chen Chu's figure disappear on the big screen, many senior military officials present remained silent for a long time.
After a long while, a colonel sighed and said, "After this battle, the geniuses in our southern battlefield will either burst out with a stronger motivation to practice, or they will never recover."
"Don't worry about this problem. When they find that no one can take Chen Chu's move, they will comfort themselves that the problem is not them but Chen Chu."
Someone laughed: "Haha... Indeed, we humans are creatures that are very good at regulating external pressure."
At this time, a middle-aged man asked in confusion: "Did you notice just now that the fighting spirit of this little guy is a bit strange?"
"Although I can't sense it through the screen, judging from the vision of the concentrated fighting spirit, it should be a killing force. This kind of power of thought can only be concentrated after killing at least a million enemies."
A major hesitated: "Didn't he say before that these bloody evil spirits came from the mutant creatures that he had killed before?"
"Since he started practicing, the number of mutant creatures he has killed is less than 200. How could this number of creatures possibly gather such a huge amount of blood evil?" Someone frowned slightly.
"Indeed, that is very strange."
After Chen Chu's stunning success two days ago, they all looked at the resume of this suddenly rising talent, which was generally quite inspiring and traceable.
Especially his performance after going to Koroya. He usually acts cautiously, but once he takes action, he is decisive and ruthless, just like today.
But according to historical records, the number of rebels and evil cultists he killed in Koroya was only about one or two hundred.
Together with the more than one hundred low-level mutant creatures killed in the subsequent cleanup mission, there were not many high-level alien beasts killed in the one month since entering the alien beast battlefield.
So where does such a strong evil spirit come from?
Sitting at the main seat, Ling Yi said slowly: "It should be related to the previous blood moon. The day after the blood moon disappeared, he carried a pile of mutant beast corpses and remains back to the base."
"According to the director of the Nantian Wugao Logistics Warehouse, the little guy was emitting an astonishing smell of blood, and it made people breathe heavily even after washing their armor."
"On the night of the blood moon, he must have experienced a brutal bloody battle, killing countless mutant creatures and gathering an astonishing amount of evil energy."
"It just so happened that at that time he touched the threshold of fighting spirit and sealed the bloody evil energy into his body until it was triggered again today."
“Here’s a picture you can look at.”
As he spoke, Ling Yi slid the touch screen on the table a few times, and suddenly a picture filled with countless white bones was projected on the big screen.
"This is what a special operations team that entered the Yunwu Mountains for support found yesterday morning when they came out. The location is close to the edge of the mountains."
"Tens of thousands of mutant creatures died around this cliff and hillside, most of them were level one and two, with a small number of level three and four."
"Based on the rotting flesh and blood underneath, they estimated that these creatures had been dead for about ten days, and the cause of death was that they were all killed by the powerful heavy weapons."
"This is also the reason why I determined the source of the blood evil energy in him."
"...So many corpses." Looking at the picture taken from a distant bird's eye view, many high-level masters of the sixth and even seventh heavens were secretly shocked.
I didn’t expect that Chen Chu was so powerful at that time and killed so many mutant creatures in one night. No wonder he could sweep the entire southern battlefield in one breath today.
The so-called million evil spirits refer to the blood and energy equivalent to one million people, not really to kill one million people.
Under normal circumstances, the blood energy of a first-level mutant creature is more than ten times that of an ordinary person, and the blood energy contained in second- and third-level monsters is even more terrifying.
That's why the bloody aura on Chen Chu is so heavy.
However, this method of gathering fighting spirit cannot be learned by ordinary people.
Simply killing tens of thousands of mutant creatures is enough to exhaust a high-level cultivator, and even a seventh-level cultivator would not be able to continue fighting for so long.
As for Chen Chu... he is a pervert. Not to mention his combat power that is far beyond his realm, what is terrifying is the endurance he displays, like a divine elephant that knows no fatigue.
As for why the investigation had to be so thorough, it was because Chen Chu's performance was too dazzling.
When faced with such a genius, the authorities will release more permissions, information, and provide more precious high-level resources. Naturally, they do not want to see ungrateful people or even spies lurking in the enemy's territory.
After confirming that Chen Chu was fine, the next thing to discuss was the treatment and authority to be given.
At the same time, the large red characters flashing on the big screens of all the Wugao bases also changed.
"Chongzhou Wugao, Chen Chu defeated the 23rd to 10th place on the record list and joined forces to become the number one of the younger generation in the southern cultivation world."
"He has become the first person to reach the top of the battle record list as a first-year practitioner. He is invincible in divine power and a peerless genius."
In an instant, all the people who were anxiously waiting at the Wugao base were in an uproar.
"What? This time it's a siege!"
"Too terrifying. He was able to defeat more than 20 masters of the same level who were at the late fifth level or even at the peak of their level. He is truly worthy of the title of peerless genius."
"This guy is really a first-year student. Are you sure he's not a King's retraining student?"
At this moment, all the Wugao bases in the entire southern battlefield fell silent, and tens of thousands of people looked at the flashing red words on the big screen in disbelief.
At the Nantian Wugao Base, Xia Youhui clenched his fists and shouted excitedly, "Achu is so cool this time. He is the best of the young generation in the south. He actually did it."
"Yeah, I thought he was joking at first." Yuan Chenghuang's face flushed with excitement.
Liu Feng looked envious: "I only care about whether there are beautiful girls screaming at the scene."
Bai Mu said sourly: "We are all cultivators, not those crazy little girls out there. How could we possibly scream?"
But just as he finished speaking, a sophomore girl not far away screamed excitedly: "Ah... Junior Chen Chu is so handsome, I like him so much."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Suddenly, Xia Youhui and a few other guys burst into laughter and patted Bai Mu's shoulders hard.
In the distance, sisters Lin Xue and Lin Yu stared at the shining red characters in a trance, because the result was so shocking that they didn't know what to say.
"Brothers, let's go to the barbecue street in the back mountain. I, Chen Dahu, am very happy today. All the green-scaled rabbit meat is free. You can eat as much as you want."
"And my Zhang Tie's secret red barbecued bear paw is also free today. There are five left from yesterday. First come, first served."
"Damn, do you have the nerve to take out the ones that weren't sold out yesterday?"
"Why should I be embarrassed? I always freeze the food after cooking it, and only take it out when someone orders it. It is 100% hygienic and clean."
"Haha... Not bad, everyone is very excited today. All the super roasted pig's trotters in this stall are 20% off."
"80% off, it's better not to fight at all."
"That's right. Chen Dahu and Zhang Tie are both free today, and you are so stingy."
"Nonsense, theirs are all first-level mutant creatures, how can they compare to my third-level mountain-shaking scaled pig? My pig's trotter is bigger than a water tank. I will lose a lot if I give it to them for free."
"Let's go have a drink together."
"I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight."
"If you want to eat barbecue all night, just tell me. Don't leave until you're drunk. It's all 10% alcohol juice sake. You're not going to get drunk."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Many people are destined to suffer from insomnia this night.
Because it was too shocking and it was late at night, after everyone dispersed, no one noticed that on the updated first-year genius list on the big screen, Chen Chu's cultivation level had become the late fifth level.
After defeating all the geniuses of his generation in one day and becoming the number one, Chen Chu did not act as high-profile as many people had guessed, but quietly returned to Nantian Wu High School in the second half of the night.
While Xia Youhui and others were excitedly eating barbecue and drinking fruit wine, he applied for a personal practice room to continue his retreat.
The Blood Prison fighting spirit that had just been condensed needed to be consolidated, and at the same time, one had to become familiar with this special power that was different from true strength, will, and spirit.
While Chen Chu was in seclusion, the next day, the school announced that the stable information network of the Yunwu Mountains had been completed, and at the same time, the outbound missions were divided into levels.
The Nine Ring Mountains are divided into Level One and Level Two, with the outer part of the Cloud Mountain Range being Level Three, the middle section being Level Four, and the deep section being Level Five.
All students can enter the mountain based on their own strength and danger level. At the same time, the space-based satellite constellation will increase monitoring of the entire southern battlefield.
Suddenly, most of the students above the third level became excited. Within half a day, they formed thousands of teams and poured into the Yunwu Mountains.
The Yunwu Mountains have been closed for many years and contain countless resources. The few students who enter on normal days cannot discover much.
Now, with the team of martial arts teachers sweeping the high-level exotic beasts in front and full information coverage in the back, as long as you are careful, it will be a completely open holy land.
…
Two days later.
As the door of the training room slowly rose, Chen Chu, dressed in casual clothes, walked out.
Chen Chu's hair had not been trimmed for several months, and now it covered his ears. His bangs, parted 3:7, covered his eyebrows, revealing his eyes as gentle as jade.
At this moment, he had a gentle temperament, and there was no trace of the invincible power that had killed his way through the entire battlefield two days ago.
At this moment, Chen Chu had an idea and took out a mobile phone from the Sumeru bracelet.
Sure enough, as soon as the phone was taken out, there was a series of messages from Xia Youhui, Liu Feng and others and Chen Qi.
Chen Chu first clicked on Xia Youhui’s voice message.
"Ah Chu, let's go out and make some money... No, let's go to the outskirts of the Yunwu Mountains to hone our skills. We'll come back and have a barbecue and drink with you to celebrate."
"Damn it, Chen Chu, are you a monster? You broke through to the late fifth level after just one battle. How can we catch up with you?"
"Chen Chu, when I come back, remember to sign dozens of autographs for me. When you become the king in a few years, I can sell these autographs for money..."
"These guys." Chen Chu smiled and then clicked on Chen Qi's text message.
The content was very simple, asking him to go to the office. Chen Chu couldn't help but think of what Chen Qi had said before: "About my subsequent cultivation."
As if thinking about something, Chen Chu walked towards the teacher's office building.
"Chen Tianjiao has come out of confinement."
"You are too polite, Senior. Please call me Chen Chu."
"Haha, Junior Brother Chen, well done. This time our Nantian Wu High School has also become famous."
"Morning, Chen Tiancai."
Along the way, whether it was the second or third grade students or the staff, they all greeted him warmly, as if the whole world had changed overnight.
Chen Chu was mentally prepared for this situation and responded one by one with a smile.
"Come on, come and sit down."
In the office, after Chen Chu sat down, Chen Qi opposite him took out a sealed envelope and gave it to him.
"Teacher, what is this?" Chen Chu took the envelope in confusion, and when he tore open the seal, he keenly noticed a warning aura dissipating from it.
I opened the envelope and found something like a postcard inside.
When he opened it, there was his brief profile, and below it was a code indicating his identity as a level six "Genius" and a key code of thirty-six digits plus runes.
At this time, Chen Qi said to the mobile phone, "Docking completed", then put down the phone and turned off the synchronized webcam.
Looking at the puzzled Chen Chu, Chen Qi explained: "This time you have demonstrated your absolute dominance over the younger generation of the southern martial arts world, and your talent has reached the official level of genius."
"The Tianjiao level is the highest level known to the younger generation. It gives you the authority equivalent to that of a high-level practitioner and allows you to see a lot of information that you couldn't see before."
"In addition, the authorities have also opened up all high-level skills to you."
"Of course, you are just browsing the general outline. If you want to practice other advanced techniques, you still have to exchange them. This is to respect the knowledge of those founders."
"As for the password on the card just now, it will be your core verification in the future. Smash it and destroy it after reading it."
"There are countless abilities in this world. Any verification has loopholes, including fingerprints, pupils, and mental fluctuations, but the only thing that cannot be imitated is memory."
"This key information is only known to you and the Tianyu Core Think Tank. If it doesn't match, you will be rejected when you log in to the Dongxia Core Information Database in the future."
"In addition, there are some items with special requirements. For example, when exchanging for top-level skills, this password verification is also required."
"Such a high level of confidentiality." Chen Chu was a little surprised.
At this time, Chen Qi continued: "In addition to the authority, the military also rewarded you with a top-level secret book. You can practice it after you reach the peak of the sixth level."
"Top secret book." Chen Chu sat up straight suddenly.
He was still worrying about where to earn 3,000 merit points after reaching the sixth level to exchange for the top secret book, but he didn't expect that he would be rewarded directly here.
But at this time Chen Qi shook his head slightly: "But I don't recommend you to practice the secret book directly."
Chen Chu looked puzzled: "Teacher, why is this?"
Looking at the young man who had only entered the alien beast battlefield for a month and had already become the number one among the younger generation, Chen Qi sighed with emotion: "Because you are so talented."
"Before the third level, we practitioners mainly temper our bodies and change our constitutions. After the fourth level, we hone our true strength and will."
"When we reach the peak of the sixth level, we have almost reached the limit of martial arts, or the limit of physical martial arts. What comes next is the Tao, the path."
"What is Tao? The heaven and earth, all things, all living beings are Tao, but we cannot touch it, and we cannot 'see' it directly, so there are runes."
"This is a type of rune that the strong men of the human race observed from mythical beasts, as well as from some relics discovered in the mythical world. Each rune contains special power."
"These runes are called words, but in fact they are a manifestation of power. They are extremely complex at the microscopic level and can allow intelligent life to observe and understand the 'Tao' more intuitively."
"And the Seventh Heaven condenses the True Martial Phantom by outlining the runes, but it is not just outlining one rune. Instead, it takes a complete rune as the core and continuously adds and selects."
"A simple metaphor is the process of building a house, which eventually forms a more powerful whole, and finally merges with the will and manifests itself externally, harnessing the power of heaven and earth."
"It's just that some of these houses are shaped like mythical beasts, some are like dragons, and some are built by people in their own human form."
“Therefore, every top secret book is most suitable for the creator. It is they who verify the manifestation of their own path, and the later ones just follow their path.”
"And the Zhenwu phantom condensed in the seventh heaven and the Zhenwu combat body in the eighth heaven are all laying the foundation, preparing for impacting the ninth heaven and breaking through the king level."
“Therefore, for many high-level practitioners, after breaking through to the eighth or ninth heaven, every bit of progress becomes extremely difficult.”
"Because the further back you go, the more different those roads become from them. It's even more difficult to repair and renovate them because the foundation is set."
"But Chen Chu, you are different. With your talent, you can definitely carve out your own path. On the contrary, choosing someone else's path is a bad idea."
“Even if you rely on your extraordinary talent to break through to the King level in the end, you will still be among the weakest, because at that time you will find that the conflict between you and that path is even greater.”
"Of course, another reason is that the top secret book corresponding to the Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body, the Divine Power Dragon Elephant, is incomplete."
"The secret book corresponding to the Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body is incomplete! Why?" Chen Chu frowned slightly.
"Because the senior who created the low-level Dragon Elephant Art and the high-level Dragon Elephant Tyrant Body died in battle more than 20 years ago. At that time, his cultivation had just broken through the ninth heaven."
“As such, the content of the Divine Power Dragon Elephant Secret Book he created only involves the Ninth Heaven, and does not include the path of practicing the laws to the peak of the Ninth Heaven.”
"The military is rewarding you with a top-level secret book at this time. I think it is also to let you prepare in advance and build your own Zhenwu Secret Book."
"I created my own top secret book, teachers, you think too highly of me." Chen Chu smiled bitterly.
Chen Qi encouraged: "Chen Chu, you have to have confidence in yourself. You are a genius who has cultivated to the late fifth level in the first grade."
"Besides, your current cultivation level is only at the late fifth level, and you are still a long way from the peak of the sixth level. There is still enough time."
"Of course, the teacher is not forcing you to create your own secret book, but is giving you references and suggestions."
"When you break through to the late sixth level, if you still have no idea about the secret book you created, you can choose a secret book that suits you to practice."
"Also, I think you can consider in advance whether to join the military after graduation or the three major federal departments, and make plans for your future path..."
Then Chen Qi told him some things that needed attention, and then Chen Chu left.
This time, Chen Chu's authority was upgraded by one level, and he was given a top-level secret book, but there were no other substantial rewards.
It may not sound like much, but you have to know that the value of a top-level secret book is tens of thousands of contribution points, and the prerequisite for redemption is that the authority meets the requirements.
Coupled with the invisible benefits of level six authority and the concentrated fighting spirit, it can be said that this time he displayed his talent and made huge profits by sweeping the entire southern battlefield.
