Ruling Martial World by Infinite Insect Swarms

Chapter 151: Chapter 145: Innate Body, Divine-Demonic Body

”A Heaven and Earth Phenomenon!”

Everyone looked up at the terrifying scene in the sky, utterly shocked. Legend said this was a phenomenon that only appeared when the most supreme geniuses broke through to the Qi Sea Realm.

There was the ”Blazing Sun Illuminating the Eight Desolations” for those who comprehended the Fire Realm.

The ”Azure Sea’s Rising Tide, Dancing with the Bright Moon” for the Water Realm.

There was even the ”Golden Crow Descending, Jade Rabbit Rising” for those who comprehended both water and fire, and the ”Kunpeng Spreading its Wings, Soaring to the Nine Heavens” for the Wind Realm, among others.

Even insights into the same Law could manifest different phenomena for various reasons.

However, most Heaven and Earth Phenomena had been recorded. So what was this phenomenon that Qin Yu was displaying?

The vast majority of those ferocious Exotic Beasts, formed from Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, were right there on the battlefield, locked in a frenzied battle with the numerous aquatic Demon Fiends.

Rapid Insects, cockroaches, Poison Burst Insects, Profound Flood Dragons, Thunder Rocs, Black Thorn Eagles, and other conventional units—even the Flood Dragon King, the Seven-Colored Spirit Deer, the Mountain-Splitting Demon King, the Red Feather Demon King, and other Insect Swarm units—all emanated an incredibly terrifying pressure.

It was the Power of Laws.

The Laws of Heaven and Earth, descending from the great unknown.

This shocking scene stunned every human and Demon Fiend alike. However, Wenyuan, who followed closely behind Qin Yu to protect him and block any sneak attacks from the rear, was overcome with ecstasy.

’This is my Qin Family’s prodigy!’

’The rise of the Qin Family will be unstoppable!’

In all of Yunlong County, no one had heard of a genius of this caliber emerging for at least a thousand years!

Although he knew that a rare few geniuses could produce such a phenomenon when breaking into the Qi Sea Realm, this was the first time he had witnessed it with his own eyes.

Even the Bishui River Dragon King, who had previously looked upon Qin Yu with disdain, now stared intently at him.

The Demon Suppression Bureau had launched their attack at the end of the auction, around noon.

Although the battle was extremely fierce, not much time had actually passed. Under the sun’s rays, the countless Insect Race War Beasts in the sky appeared somewhat transparent. After all, these insect units were not truly of the Insect Race.

They were formed by the convergence of the world’s power, constructed from many different Powers of Law.

As the Insect Race units roared one after another, all sorts of different Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, empowered by Law Force, surged violently into Qin Yu’s body.

An immensely vigorous power was already brewing within Qin Yu’s body.

The gaze of the Bishui River Dragon King, Ao Qin, was already filled with killing intent. Even he could feel a sense of crisis from the power brewing within that phenomenon.

A human genius who was merely at the Qi and Blood Realm, no matter how strong, was insignificant to a Primordial Mansion Realm expert like himself, who already had one foot in the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

But the Qi Sea Realm was different, especially a breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm that triggered a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.

He already felt threatened.

”Even if he breaks through to the Qi Sea Realm and triggers a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, he’ll only be at the Early Stage Qi Sea Realm. He doesn’t even have a single decent treasure, let alone having cultivated any Secret Techniques.”

A savage look appeared on the face of the Bishui River Dragon King, Ao Qin. His massive draconic body suddenly whipped around, his huge tail slamming toward Demon Suppression General Chen Jianqiu with unstoppable momentum.

Chen Jianqiu, still stunned by the scene of Qin Yu’s breakthrough, didn’t dare to face it head-on and quickly retreated.

However, his pupils shrank the next instant.

’This is bad!’

Ao Qin instantly spewed a torrent of water from his mouth, a deluge that surged toward the still-advancing Qin Yu like an inverted heavenly river. Having just killed the Dragon Turtle and being in the midst of his breakthrough, Qin Yu had no power to resist an expert at the Peak of the Late Stage Primordial Mansion Realm.

”No!”

Qin Wenyuan, guarding Qin Yu from behind, his eyes wide with fury, drew his saber and charged forward without hesitation, executing his Celestial Wind Saber Technique to its absolute limit.

He instantly slashed out an immense hundred-zhang Wind Blade.

But against the full-power attack unleashed by the Bishui River Dragon King, Ao Qin, it was as fragile as tofu. The Wind Blade was instantly annihilated, and all he could do was watch helplessly as the torrent of water crashed toward Qin Yu.

A hint of despair filled his eyes.

BOOM!

As the river-like torrent of water slammed down on the advancing Qin Yu, the incredibly majestic Insect Race units within the Blood Sea seemed to snap to life.

The Rapid Insects, cockroaches, and the others roared. The moment the torrent of water came into contact with the Blood Sea and the insectoid phenomenon, it was instantly shattered and evaporated.

It vanished into thin air before even touching Qin Yu.

However, the force of the impact still made Qin Yu raise his eyes to the behemoth in the sky, his own gaze filled with indifference.

”How is this possible?”

”He blocked it.”

”That was a full-power strike from the Bishui River Dragon King! Even General Chen Jianqiu probably couldn’t have withstood it so easily.”

Many of the Demon Suppression Bureau experts present had extremely sharp judgment, but even Primordial Mansion Realm Great Powers like Zhang Han and Chen Jianqiu looked on with confusion.

But in the next moment, a flash of memory crossed Zhang Han’s eyes.

”I once read in an ancient text that when the world’s most supreme geniuses break through to the Qi Sea Realm, they trigger certain strange rules between Heaven and Earth, forming a phenomenon.

During the breakthrough, power descends to allow them to shed their mortal form and forge an Innate Body, comparable to the ancient Divine Demons.

Under the protection of this power, no attack can possibly touch them.”

Zhang Han gripped his Long Saber tightly, a fiery glint in his eyes. He had always thought this was just a myth, but he never expected it to be real!

’Protected by Heaven and Earth during a breakthrough!’

What was an Innate Body?

Legend said that only lifeforms nurtured by Heaven and Earth itself could be considered to have a true Innate Body. Such beings had another name—Divine Demons.

When an ordinary Martial Artist breaks through, they are merely scoured by Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi. This converts the Qi and Blood Power in their body into Primordial Qi, which then cleanses their flesh, muscles, and bones, making their body lighter and more agile.

This too was a qualitative transformation.

But it was simply incomparable to a breakthrough that triggered a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon and forged an Innate Body—a Divine-Demonic Body.

Cultivation is like constructing a building.

Only with a solid foundation can one build higher and more stably.

As a Demon Suppression General, he knew far more than an ordinary person. He knew that Divine Demons truly existed in this world and that they still resided in certain places to this day.

BOOM!

His body shot forward, and he slashed directly into the surging torrent of water.

”Bishui River Dragon King, Ao Qin! You dared to collude with the Blood Demon Sect and attempt a blood sacrifice of Bishui City! You have committed an unforgivable crime.

You have no chance left.

Surrender now, and we might leave you with an intact corpse when the Celestial Patrol Army arrives.”

Demon Suppression General Zhang Han sneered.

’An intact corpse!’

’And nothing more.’

Colluding with the Blood Demon Sect was a secondary offense. But attempting a blood sacrifice of a human Prefecture City was an absolutely unforgivable, monstrous crime. Forget a Primordial Mansion Realm member of the Dragon Race like him...

...even a Primordial Spirit Realm expert would be hunted relentlessly by the Demon Suppression Bureau for it.

Until they were dead!

This was an iron law of the Great Wei Dynasty, with no room for negotiation.

”Hmph! By the time the Celestial Patrol Army arrives, you’ll all be long dead!”

A flicker of panic flashed through Ao Qin’s draconic eyes, but it turned to ferocity in the next instant. His gaze drifted downward toward Mo Yuzi, who had plunged into the Bishui River to set up some kind of Array.

’When I made this decision, I knew there was no turning back.’

’But if things had continued as they were, what choice did I have?’

’My heirs were dying one by one. Even the power within the Bishui River Dragon Palace was being slowly usurped by that wretch. If I had delayed any longer, I feared I would meet some ”mysterious” end myself.’

’Facing the encroachment of the Canglan River Dragon Palace, I had no way to fight back. I could only retreat, bit by bit.’

The Canglan River was one of the great rivers within the Great Wei Dynasty’s territory. Its Water Veins were vast and its resources abundant. The strength of its Dragon Palace was far beyond what the Bishui River’s could ever match.

’But I refuse to accept it.’

’Even if it means death, I will fight back with everything I have!’

’If I can devour the thing sealed in the Demon Suppression Cave beneath the Bishui River, I’m certain I can step into the Myriad Phenomena Realm, maybe even break through to the Primordial Spirit Realm!’

’Then even the Canglan River Dragon King would have to bow his head to me!’

...

CRACKLE!

As the power from the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon surged into his body, Qin Yu felt his organs, his limbs, his bones—every inch of his flesh, every single cell—undergoing a drastic transformation.

Guided and scoured by the unseen Laws of Heaven and Earth, an incredible change was taking place. The power in every fiber of his being was being madly absorbed, then constantly dividing to form new cells.

Even the roaring phenomenon in the Blood Sea—the Insect Swarm units formed by the Laws of Heaven and Earth—ultimately surged into his body, transforming into strange, new patterns.

Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder...

Patterns representing all sorts of different Laws were ultimately branded onto his skin.

This kind of transformation was not recorded even in the legacy of the Insect Nest.

He could feel that his body, already pushed to its perfect limit by his Insect Swarm’s modulation, had transformed into something truly incomprehensible.

This was not a simple increase in strength, but a leap in his very level of existence.

Like a snake transforming into a dragon.

Shedding its mortal coil to become a True Dragon!

The body that had been severely damaged by the eruption of the Power of Dominator was now perfectly repaired. His skin radiated a crystalline luster, and the strange patterns representing the Insect Race units glowed brilliantly.

Qin Yu opened his eyes. He looked at the Bishui River Dragon King fighting desperately against the two Demon Suppression Generals in the sky, then glanced down at Mo Yuzi in the Bishui River below.

He uttered a single word: ”Die!”

The Insect Race patterns on his body instantly stirred the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

BOOM! BOOM!

The Wind and Thunder Wings materialized behind him. The Evil-breaking Saber in his hand suddenly turned blood-red, and the surging waters of the Bishui River formed into a Divine Dragon, carrying Qin Yu as it charged directly toward Mo Yuzi at the bottom of the river.

The Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, having transformed into mysterious patterns, was not merely for show.

It represented power!

Like Innate Divine Techniques, it allowed him to control Wind and Thunder, command water and fire, and even govern the earth!
