Ascending to Godhood: I Can Foresee All Futures

Chapter 118: Chapter 97: Innate Protective Golden Bell

Time flowed by, and even Chen Sheng himself lost track of how long it had been.

The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi accumulated in his body had reached a critical saturation point. Like a spring compressed to its absolute limit, it was restless, yearning for release and transformation.

’This is the moment!’

With a thought as fast as lightning, Chen Sheng guided the immense torrent of Primordial Qi with all his might. Like reining in stampeding wild horses, he directed it toward the mysterious gateway of his Dantian, launching a final, ferocious assault.

BOOM!

BOOM!

RUMBLE!

Wave after wave of Primordial Qi, each stronger than the last, smashed fearlessly against the formless barrier.

Finally.

After countless assaults, Chen Sheng felt something inside him give way with a soft CRACK. A tiny, imperceptible fissure had appeared on the solid gateway.

’The gateway is cracked!’

Chen Sheng’s spirits soared. Without letting up, he urged the increasingly turbulent Primordial Qi onward, pressing his advantage.

The rampant Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi continued to surge, not stopping until the gateway to his Dantian was completely shattered.

In that instant, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged wildly into the newly opened space of his Dantian.

Not daring to delay for even a moment, Chen Sheng quickly took out an azure jade stone that contained Innate Spiritual Qi. With a surge of strength in his hand, he fiercely crushed it.

This was the step to breaking through to the Innate Second Stage: condensing a Spirit Seed.

Once the Spirit Seed was formed, one was considered Innate.

BANG!

A wisp of exceptionally pure and sentient Innate Spiritual Qi burst from the stone. It was misty like smoke and swirled around Chen Sheng. He immediately guided it with his palms, circulating the Secret Technique from the Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique to make the wisp of Spiritual Qi spiral around him.

With each revolution, threads of cool, refreshing spiritual light separated from the Spiritual Qi, flowing through the apertures of his body and into his damaged Meridians.

Wherever the light passed, the Meridians that had been ravaged by the berserk Primordial Qi were repaired and nourished at a speed visible to the naked eye, even becoming wider and tougher.

Even more miraculously, this Innate spiritual light seemed to possess a supreme authority. Wherever it went, the previously untamable and violent Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi instantly became incredibly docile, parting to make way for the Spiritual Qi.

Countless streams of spiritual light converged and surged toward his Dantian, like a flock of birds returning to their nest.

Chen Sheng’s body began to emit a faint, gentle, and pure halo, as if he were cloaked in a radiant glow.

The circulation path of the Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique began operating on its own, reaching its absolute peak. Under the technique’s profound influence, the Innate spiritual light and the massive volume of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in his Dantian began to rapidly spin, compress, and coalesce...

After an unknown amount of time.

A pale golden speck of light the size of a grain of rice, containing immense vitality and Spiritual Charm, quietly appeared in the center of his Dantian. It spun slowly, instinctively drawing in the surrounding Primordial Qi.

The Innate Spirit Seed—formed!

The moment the Spirit Seed finished forming, Chen Sheng’s entire body trembled violently. He felt as if his whole being—body and soul—had just completed a pivotal transformation and ascended to a higher state.

Within his Dantian, the once-chaotic Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi seemed to instantly find its center. It became orderly, revolving around the Spirit Seed as it was rapidly refined and transformed...

The first wisp of energy—pale golden, condensed like a silken thread, yet containing astonishing power—was born from the Spirit Seed.

Innate True Qi!

Then came a second wisp, and a third...

As the Innate True Qi continued to multiply, the Innate Spirit Seed grew more solid and powerful. Simultaneously, the pure Innate True Qi began to flow out from his Dantian, nourishing his entire body.

Sinews, bones, Meridians, organs, flesh, and skin—every minute part of Chen Sheng’s body was being cleansed and nourished by the Innate True Qi.

An immense vitality welled up from the depths of his being, sweeping away all the fatigue and injuries sustained during the breakthrough.

Chen Sheng could clearly feel his power skyrocketing. His five senses became sharper than ever before, and even his thoughts were clearer and more agile.

His hair, now darker and more lustrous, stirred without a breeze. His skin tightened, taking on a warm, jade-like sheen. The qi and blood throughout his body surged, no longer restlessly, but like a vast, unending river.

This was the complete transformation brought by the Innate Realm.

Chen Sheng slowly opened his eyes. A faint golden light flashed in the depths of his pupils before vanishing, leaving them looking profound and majestic.

An incomparably tyrannical and immense aura, far surpassing what he had before, emanated from him, naturally spreading to envelop the entire tent.

Innate!

He had finally, successfully, stepped into this realm!

Deep in his consciousness, the information on his progress panel changed.

[Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique: Minor Achievement (1/500)]

Looking at this line of text, the corners of Chen Sheng’s mouth curved up into a satisfied smile.

With a flicker of his thoughts, he tried to circulate his power. The qi and blood in his body roared as his might climbed steadily. Then, he activated the pale golden Spirit Seed in his Dantian.

DONG—!

A low, melodious bell chime resounded.

Suddenly, countless streams of pale golden energy surged from the hundreds of apertures on Chen Sheng’s body. A few yards out, they rapidly coalesced into a faint, illusory Golden Bell—ancient and solid—that shielded him completely.

The Innate Protective Golden Bell.

This was the Protective Divine Technique of the Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique, one that could only be manifested after reaching the Innate Realm.

This Golden Bell was formed from the inside out, fusing the essence of his qi, blood, and True Qi. A product of both internal and external cultivation, its defensive power far surpassed the Protective Qi Shield of an ordinary expert at the early Chaoyuan stage of the Innate Realm.

Even the most powerful Wind-Breaking Crossbow in the Military Preparation Camp could not hope to so much as dent this bell.

Furthermore, as Chen Sheng’s True Qi deepened and his comprehension of the Cultivation Technique grew, the Protective Golden Bell would not only become more solid and its range expand, but it would even develop profound abilities such as Golden Bell Rebound and Bell Chime Soul Capture.
