What a strange feeling.

As he slowly flew downwards from a height of several thousand meters, Chen Chu felt like a fish in water, as if he was born to fly.

This feeling of perfection is one of the hallmarks of the Eighth Heaven.

It is a combination of the practitioner's spirit and martial arts, and when he breaks through the seventh level, the interaction between heaven and earth gives him the 'real' Zhenwu phantom, which is actually another kind of spirit of heaven and earth.

Gifted by heaven and earth, one's innate harmony with heaven and earth is the reason why one can mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to bless and amplify the practitioners several times or even dozens of times.

In this case, as the practitioner breaks through the eighth level, his body merges with the Zhenwu phantom and naturally possesses the characteristics of an innate spirit.

Looking at Chen Chu who fell from the sky and landed not far from him, Ji Wuji, who was dressed in white and had a sturdy and resolute figure, exclaimed: "I admire the talent of Junior Brother Chen."

Facing the talent of Chen Chu, who was in the eighth level of the first grade and had condensed the fourth level of the embryonic world, even Ji Wuji felt inferior to him.

Although he was interrupted by this guy every time he showed off, the other party's talent was the only one he had ever seen in his life, even more exaggerated than those innate awakeners who were descendants of kings.

Chen Chu said politely: "Senior Ji, you are not bad either. You have already broken through to the eighth level before you even graduate. If you push this kind of talent back ten years, there won't be many in the entire Dongxia."

Chen Chu was indeed not overestimating him. The Qingqiu Minghui he met at that time was the descendant of the king and had awakened the power of his bloodline. He was only in the late seventh level when he was twenty years old.

This trip to the ruins brought together almost all the geniuses of the younger generation in the entire Federation, but only five or six of them broke through to the seventh level.

And Gabriella only broke through after entering the ruins later.

But Chen Chu feels that someone will reach the ninth level of heaven in the future.

The girl, who was naturally gifted, inherited the sword formation in the ruins, and walked the path of the king. The path of the king of heaven was also coming to an end.

With this kind of talent, if it weren't for Chen Chu, she would undoubtedly be the number one. Even Li Daoyi, who was a congenital awakener, would be a little bit short of her.

Thinking of this, Chen Chu couldn't help but look into the distance, where An Fuqing, Xia Youhui and others were looking at this side.

Xia Youhui yelled, "Ah Chu, stop bragging to each other over there."

Chen Chu couldn't help but smile. He took a step and instantly appeared more than a hundred meters away. He took another step and flashed another hundred meters away. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the edge of the residential area.

The Rune God Seed is ten times faster, making Chen Chu’s speed even more amazing.

In fact, this ten times is just a conceptual conversion. When the core rune condenses into a divine seed, it becomes a power similar to supernatural power.

Just like when the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon broke through to level eight, his talent, which was originally just an explosion of muscle power, condensed into a rune sequence chain.

Surrounded by this force, Chen Chu not only traveled more than 100 meters in one step, but also did not cause an air explosion or a rapid shock wave.

The same goes for the power and defense of the Rune God Seeds. They are not simply enhanced, but form an invisible magical power to bless them at all times.

Chen Chu could control these magical powers like instincts freely, and he would not crush the chopsticks into powder while eating.

Lin Mei, who was beside Lin Xue, spoke first, smiling, "Brother Chen, congratulations on breaking through the eighth level."

Chen Chu smiled: "I am just one step ahead this time. Senior Sister Lin, you have gained a lot this time. Maybe you will catch up in no time."

"Chen Chu, don't be so modest. Do you think we don't want to catch up with you?" Li Hao was speechless.

After only a few months, he had fallen behind by three major realms, and these three major realms would take top geniuses several years or even more than ten years to cross.

It was obvious that he was born with supernatural powers and was the second genius of Nantian Wugao High School who was expected to surpass An Fuqing. But now he has fallen to third place. Who can he turn to for justice?

Facing Li Hao's complaints, Chen Chu just smiled.

He couldn't just say that he had an extraordinary talent and that it was just a breakthrough and not worth mentioning, otherwise it would be even more discouraging.

At this time, Xia Youhui came over and said, "Ah Chu, the faster you break through, the better. I feel like next year I'll be able to go out and say that King Chen Chu is my brother."

"Maybe not next year." Chen Chu hesitated, because he felt that he could break through to the King level this year.

In fact, before entering the ruins, his original goal was to reach the Ninth Heaven in one year. It would be a little difficult to reach the King in one year, because the law of the peak of the Ninth Heaven is a difficult hurdle to cross.

This natural barrier has blocked too many talented geniuses and stopped too many veteran strong men in the late ninth level.

However, now that federal resources are being allocated to him, his martial arts foundation and realm are already sufficient, so it is not impossible for him to become a king in one year.

Xia Youhui, who didn't know this, encouraged Chen Chu: "Ah Chu, you can definitely do it. I'm already ready to show off next year."

"Okay, I'll try my best, class monitor, classmate Lin." Chen Chu said with a smile and greeted Lin Xue and the others, then looked at Li Daoyi not far away.

"Brother Li, I sensed a strange and domineering force in your thunder. It seems that you have already stepped out of your innate limitations. Congratulations."

"It's OK, it's OK." Li Daoyi's tone was rather modest. At this moment he just wanted to keep a low profile. It would be best if these people ignored him, just like he had not said the previous sentence 'I am the only one in the world'.

Before everyone could exchange greetings, the middle-aged man with the scar in the distance flashed and appeared, laughing: "Today, my human race has added two more eighth-level masters, which is cause for celebration."

Seeing this, Xia Youhui immediately introduced him familiarly: "Achu, this is the person in charge of the frontier base, Major General Bai Tu."

Uh... you guys, you can make friends wherever you go. Chen Chu glanced at Xia Youhui, then smiled and said, "Hello, General Bai Tu."

Bai Tuhong laughed loudly: "You're welcome, classmate Chen. When you made a breakthrough earlier, Xie Wangzuo sent me a message, asking you to go to Base No. 1, saying that the things you wanted are ready."

"Ready." Chen Chu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Apparently his life crystal had arrived.

"Everyone, I'm going to go to Base No. 1 first."

After saying hello to everyone, Chen Chu disappeared in a flash. After leaving the frontier town, a sonic boom was heard.

Compared to the silent and transcendent movement, Chen Chu prefers the domineering feeling of bursting the air and bursting everything.

Soon Chen Chu arrived outside Base No. 1 and saw from afar a huge silver vortex a thousand meters high, emitting invisible ripples.

In Chen Chu's slowly emerging black-gold vertical pupils, the entire passage within dozens of kilometers around was filled with strong spatial fluctuations.

Compared with the underwater passage controlled by the Kulon Beast Empire, the Dongxia passage is larger, more stable, and has a stronger carrying capacity.

During the days he was in seclusion, nothing unusual happened under the sea.

It seems that the mythical beast, the King of Black Annihilation, has not yet noticed the changes here.

But it's normal when you think about it. These mythical beasts sleep for several months, half a year, or even ten years at a time. For them, the concept of time is very slow.

And this is the norm.

Because these giant beasts practice while they are asleep.

As the size becomes larger and larger, the energy consumption of the behemoth's daily activities as a supernatural creature is also exaggerated, requiring a large amount of biological energy.

And all of this consumption comes from the energy from heaven and earth that they absorb.

Therefore, reducing activities can reduce daily consumption and effectively increase their cultivation and growth speed.

As for hunting other behemoths for food, generally only hunting behemoths of the same level will have a significant improvement, the reason is the difference in quality and quantity.

After the extraordinary creatures reach level eight, with each level up, the size difference between the giant beasts increases by several times or even dozens of times, and the energy contained in their flesh and blood increases by more than ten times.

Therefore, the improvement effect of an eighth-level behemoth eating a seventh-level behemoth is not obvious unless it devours a large amount all day long.

As for hunting and devouring their peers, very few behemoths do this.

Because no beast can guarantee victory over the opponent. Before the fight, no beast knows what the opponent's talent is or how strong it is. What if the fight fails and the beast is killed and eaten instead?

Therefore, after reaching level nine, unless there are visible benefits in the fights between giant beasts, even if there is a conflict they will just release their pressure and that will be the end of it.

Instead of fighting, it is better to sleep more and absorb the energy of heaven and earth to improve your strength.

As for the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, it slaughtered monsters of the same level as slaughtering dogs and even dared to hunt those at a higher level, only one had appeared in the sea in all these years.

However, after reaching level nine, the growth rate of the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon slowed down.

Its powerful physique, which is dozens of times stronger than that of the giant beasts of the same level, gives it the strength to suppress the giant beasts of the same level. With the blessing of several top talents, it is even invincible in the same level.

But at the same time, because its body is so powerful, a huge amount of energy is consumed for every meter of growth.

This is also the reason why it hunted several level nine behemoths, went to the Arctic Sea to devour a large number of level seven and eight behemoths, and only broke through to the middle level nine after three early level nine behemoths.

In this case, there is not enough energy to maintain the rapid growth of the body, let alone convert it into evolutionary value and accumulate it.

And then the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon will have to go from the middle to the late stage of level nine, and then to the peak of level nine, which will be even greater. It feels like it may have to eat a mythical beast to achieve that.

For example... the Lord of Black Oblivion.

As if lost in thought, Chen Chu passed through a series of gates and soon arrived at the office building in the center of the base.

Yes, the center of Base No. 1 is a hundred-meter-high office building, and Xie Chen’s office is on the top floor of the 33rd floor.

It’s strange, why do people like to build thirty-three floors?

Confused, Chen Chu passed two more identity verifications before taking the elevator to the top floor. When the elevator opened, there was a spacious office.

At this time, Xie Chen was sitting behind a desk, looking down at a document in his hand.

Xie Chen raised his head, looked at Chen Chu who walked in and smiled, "Xiao Chen, you came at the right time. Here, take a look for yourself. This is the list of resources allocated to you for your next practice."

As Xie Chen said this, he pushed the information sheet and a space bracelet over and spoke.

"Our human race has always attached great importance to the cultivation of the new generation, especially those with outstanding talents, who will receive more resources."

"The reason is simple. Only a genius can transform those resources into strength in a short period of time and bring out the greatest effect."

"As for those with average talents, even if they get the same resources, they can only absorb them slowly, and the effect is only two or three tenths of the same."

"As the most talented person of the new generation, you are no exception. There are enough resources here for you to cultivate all the way to the late ninth level."

Xie Chen knew that Chen Chu's talent was average at the beginning, and it took him half a month to build a foundation. Therefore, he only practiced low-level skills in the beginning, and his resources were not as good as those of the geniuses of the same period.

Telling him this now is to prevent him from still harboring the resentment and dissatisfaction he felt at that time.

Chen Chu also understood the meaning of his words and smiled: "I understand what the throne means. The Federation currently has limited resources and it is impossible to take care of everyone."

As he spoke, Chen Chu sat down opposite Xie Chen, politely took the information sheet with both hands, and then surprise appeared in his eyes.

One hundred ethereal crystals, used to strengthen and expand his storage space.

Fifteen ninth-grade blood lotus seeds, each worth two thousand merit points, can strengthen the qi and blood of an eighth-level strong man and accelerate the transformation of flesh and blood.

Nine portions of divine body-building liquid condensed from the essence and blood of mythical beasts, each portion is worth two thousand merit points, and twenty dragon-patterned blood crystals, each of which is worth one thousand six hundred merit points.

These two god-level resources are used after the ninth-grade blood lotus seeds develop resistance.

According to the efficacy description on the data sheet, Chen Chu would be able to cross the eighth level of flesh and blood rebirth in two months at most, or even more than a month at a faster pace.

In addition, after he broke through the ninth level, he also gained star crystal sand, void pure water, and ethereal fruit, which strengthened his magical power. Their value is more than ten times that of the resources in the eighth level.

Seeing this, even Chen Chu couldn't help but breathe a little faster, because the value of these resources has reached several million contribution points.

Noticing the subtle change in Chen Chu's expression, Xie Chen slowly said, "These god-level resources can only allow you to save and accumulate. When you reach the peak of the eighth level, it depends on you."

"This also applies to the Ninth Heaven. These resources can only help you reach the late stage of the Ninth Heaven earlier, but the peak of the Ninth Heaven is a hurdle that no one can cross quickly."

“So if you are at the peak of the eighth level, or if you quickly cultivate to the late ninth level and suddenly stop, remember to be modest and keep a calm mind.”

Chen Chu thanked him, "Thank you for your teachings, I will keep them in mind."

Regardless of whether these kind reminders were useful or suitable for him, Chen Chu was grateful.

At this time, Xie Chen continued: "In addition to these, I also temporarily applied for some god-level resources to expand the embryonic world, including branches of the sky tree and the earth soil."

"By then, it will be enough to stabilize the foundations of your four embryonic worlds." Xie Chen said, taking out another space ring.

"Inside this ring are the life crystals I transferred from the Seventh Legion. There are 32 level 7 crystals, 7 level 8 crystals, and one level 9 life crystal."

"Currently, the sources of crystals in the Federation are divided into three parts. Low-level crystals are the most numerous. They come from various mutant beast breeding grounds around the world and are provided to college freshmen and ordinary military soldiers for their initial training."

"After reaching level 4 or 5, the number of crystals decreases drastically. Most of them come from the exotic beast battlefields of various countries. The output will be exchanged for those geniuses and special forces warriors at a low price."

"The federation's philosophy is to not pile up resources in inventory. All useful resources should be distributed as much as possible after they are acquired, or exchanged at a low price to those in need, so as to improve overall strength."

"Under such circumstances, the high-level life crystals from the mythical world are even more scarce. One reason is that there is not much stock, and the other is that it is not easy to obtain."

"Over the years, most of the high-level exotic beasts and giant beasts in the surrounding area have been killed, so even for me, I can only mobilize this few high-level life crystals in a short period of time." At this point, Xie Chen said with some regret.

"It's a pity that you have already reached the eighth level of cultivation. Levels below the seventh level are of no use to you. Moreover, those low-level crystals are allocated to Wugao for the new semester resources and cannot be intercepted."

"Thank you, Throne." Chen Chu took the space bracelet and space ring.

With these resources, not only can he make rapid progress in the next two levels, but the giant beast can also improve its strength at the same time.

After talking about resources, Xie Chen continued, "By the way, Xiao Chen, don't rush into the mythical world. The forbidden weapon prepared for you by the chairman of the senator will take a few days."

"The so-called forbidden weapon is a special secret treasure that contains the power of the rules of the strongest. It will shatter after being used once. It is very powerful."

"You are now being targeted by the Purgatory Clan and the Evil God Alliance. Once your whereabouts are exposed there, there is a high probability that you will be attacked and killed by the King."

"In the war between our human race and the Purgatory Clan over the years, both sides have been infiltrating, so safety is the first priority. It is best to wait until the forbidden weapon arrives before going over."

"No problem. I'm planning to stay in seclusion for a few more days."

In fact, even if Xie Chen didn't say it, Chen Chu was ready to calm down for a while before going to the mythological world, because he still had a lot of things to prepare.

For example, deducing advanced martial arts combat skills.

After obtaining the five seeds of innate magical powers and condensing the body of the God of War, both the nature of his power and his fighting style underwent great changes.

As a simple high-level combat skill, the Eight Desolate Purgatory Halberd is no longer able to unleash his full strength.

In fact, when Chen Chu broke through to the seventh level, the problem of insufficient power of his combat skills had already appeared. It was just that his cultivation breakthrough was too fast, and he reached the eighth level before he had time to adjust.

Therefore, he needed to remain in seclusion for a while longer, burning his attributes to enter enlightenment, and smelting his martial arts to create destructive combat skills that could bring out all of his advantages.

In addition, now that there are enough life crystals, the time and space summoning must be strengthened to perfection, or even to the limit.

When he goes to the mythological world, summoning the Thunder and Flame Emperor Dragon will be his trump card.

Although the Chairman of the Senate will make a forbidden weapon for him, this top-notch life-saving trump card should not be used if possible, because if one is used, one less will be used.

While Chen Chu and Xie Chen were talking, the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon far under the deep sea was also busy.

The surrounding seawater whirlpools that stretched from sky to earth were spinning, making rumbling sounds. The air in the waterless area several hundred meters from the center was so hot that it distorted the vision.

In the Burning Golden Flame spewed out by the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, the skeleton of the Blade Beast was constantly being melted. Most of the matter was burned to ashes, leaving only the most essential part.

Under the continuous fire-breathing of the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon for three days, the hard ground with the passage as the center had already melted into hot magma, rolling continuously.

In the previous battle, the skeletons of three level nine behemoths were obtained, two of which were in the early stage of level nine, and one was a peak level nine quasi-mythical beast.

As for the late level nine blue-marked beast, because it is a soft-bodied creature, even after it mutated, it has no bones in its body, only scales on its surface.

Under the burning of the golden flames filled with scorching destructive energy, the half-blade skeleton of the beast gradually turned into a dark golden crystal substance that was five meters long and three meters in diameter.

Only then did the flames in the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon's mouth slowly go out.

Phew! Finally done.

Even with its strength, it was a bit unbearable to spit fire for three consecutive days. It felt like it had fired more than ten rounds in a row, and both legs felt a bit weak.

At this time, the swirling sea water in the distance exploded, and the head of the silver dragon carefully poked in, roaring and growling: "Roar! Ao Tian, ​​are you done burning?"

Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon nodded and growled, "It's finished burning, you can come in."

"Roar! Ao Tian, ​​you're finally done burning."

As the silver dragon spoke, it opened its mouth excitedly, and a strong stream of cold air blew out of its mouth. Wherever it passed, the rolling magma and the earth were frozen and cooled in the blink of an eye.

Bang!

A giant silver dragon with a body length of more than 150 meters rushed out of the whirlpool, and its heavy footsteps landed on the ground, causing the ground to shatter instantly.

The silver dragon came in front of the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon, poked its head out to curiously look at the crystalline substance that had been burned to only a little essence, and didn't understand why it burned these bones.

At this time, the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon slowly growled: "Cesitia, Big Horn and the others haven't reached their peak yet?"

The silver dragon shook his head. "Jiao Ji came back the day before yesterday and said that the two of them were still a little short of accumulating resources. They have been guarding those resource points for the past few days."

"Just a little bit more." Lei Yan Emperor Dragon nodded slowly.

In addition to the flesh and blood of more than ten level eight and nine beasts harvested in the previous battle, we also obtained the high-level renewable resource territories where these beasts were entrenched.

These resources are similar to the green life crystals and the growth crystals on the island where the ancient giant crocodile is located, but are more advanced. They were then distributed by the Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon to his subordinate giant beasts.

Zhulong occupied the place where the blue-seal giant beast was entrenched, only more than ten kilometers away from the passage.

The nine-headed dragon also occupied one, and then all the treasures produced by the remaining resource points were temporarily supplied to the unicorn tiger Kun and the deep-sea dragon turtle.

After eating some of the flesh and blood of the Blade Beast, the late level eight Deep Sea Dragon Turtle and the One-horned Tiger Kun both achieved great growth under the stimulation of the quasi-mythical flesh and blood factor.

Coupled with the sufficient supply of resources and energy, it is already close to the peak of level eight.

But the speed is still a bit slow.

Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon sighed slightly, then growled: "Roar! Ceciltia, I'm going to go over to the other side and take a look. I'll leave this side to you."

"I've been waiting for so long, but the guys on the other side haven't come over yet. I'll have to go find them."
