Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile-Chapter 183: Divine Physique
Swoosh
At Ye Chen’s command, the spiritual fruits and herbs entered his mouth.
However, he did not use them to temper his body but directly sent them inside his dantian.
Instantly after that, the ice flame flared up and started to refine them.
Ye Chen was not idle either.
To achieve a divine physique, some extraordinary things had to be done and one of them was using his soul essence to imprint his body.
Normally, one could only be able to extract their soul essence after reaching nascent soul and above. But even after that, they had to pay the painful price of vitality.
It could be understood how important the soul essence was. For any cultivators below nascent soul, it was no different than giving them a death sentence, as they would only be able to live for a few days after this.
Certainly Ye Chen didn’t have any problems with this at all. Especially since he was immortal. Of course this didn’t mean he could extract endless soul essence, as doing so would weaken his soul.
Back to the body cultivation technique, it was certainly a life-or-death choice for anyone. If they succeeded, they would live; if not, they could only wait for death.
The divine physique was not something that could be achieved easily after all. A pity it met Ye Chen, who was wondering how much soul essence to use.
He was planning to imprint his body as well as newly made dragon scales. In this way the dragon scales won’t be auxiliary anymore but almost a part of his body.
If the conditions are met, he could even turn them into his true part of soul.
This was the reason why he went through the trouble of creating the scales just now.
Swoosh
There was no hesitation; he made a few hand symbols. Instantly after that, five drops of golden blood condensed inside the sea of consciousness.
It was none other than soul essence and although it looked like it wasn’t enough, he was already doing an overkill by using this much.
The next moment the five golden drops of blood trembled slightly and turned into countless tiny invisible threads. After this, they started to take the shape of strange symbols at his command.
Once done, he immediately controlled the symbols to be imprinted on his body. The first were bones, then meridians, muscles, and so on.
Certainly the newly made dragon scales weren’t forgotten, as well as his original mountain body.
His actions once again alarmed everyone, especially Zhen Yunqi and Jing Xiao, who were in the nascent soul realm and could sense something soul-related was flowing through the whole mountain.
Ye Chen was not aware of this, nor did he have time to care.
This body cultivation technique was meant for the human body but with him making such changes, the process was bound to be difficult or even end up as a failure.
However, there was no regret because if he succeeded, he would gain immense strength.
Swoosh!
The spirit fruits and herbs inside his dantian turned into medicinal essence. Then without even him doing anything, they coursed through his body.
Wherever the medicinal essence passed, it lit up the imprinted symbols.
Ye Chen had to do nothing as the medicinal essence even entered his sea of consciousness on its own before surging through the dragon scales and lighting up the imprints.
Next came his original body; there was no difficulty as the essence passed through the gate of spiritual qi opened by the void pearl before lighting the imprints on his original body too.
Once done, the medicinal essence returned to his body and started to merge with his golden spiritual root.
Buzz!
The next moment an invisible pressure descended, almost making him spit out the blood.
However, the worst was yet to come as the imprinted symbols started to shine brightly, increasing the pressure further.
Because of this, his skin displayed the signs of cracking; the same went for bones, meridians, and even the nine-dragon heart.
The dragon scales were not spared either; they were even more fragile than his body and were on the verge of breaking. As for his original mountain body, it remained calm as time passed; not even a ripple appeared.
Hum!
Suddenly, Dao rhymes started to ring through the void pearl world; however, they weren’t soothing and calming but arrogant and dismissive.
It even pressured his soul so he could stop the process.
Rejection!
This was the rejection from Divine Celestial Physique itself.
Unlike other special physiques, every divine physique was unique and could be said to have a certain self-awareness.
However, wasn’t it too arrogant to reject Ye Chen?
"Humph, since you don’t want to be obedient, then I will make you obedient," Ye Chen snorted coldly.
In that instant a vast aura rivaling the current pressure erupted from him.
Inside his sea of consciousness, Long Ruxue’s expression changed greatly; she was very familiar with this aura, especially since he used it to threaten her into signing the soul contract.
’His divine ability must be useless; it’s no wonder he dares to put on a show of sacrificing,’ she thought with a pout.
Bang!
The sky inside the void pearl suddenly split open, revealing a vast rift filled with nothing but chaos.
Long Ruxue couldn’t help but gulp audibly seeing this; however, she suppressed every urge to go out because she understood that something that could open up the rift through chaos was not something she could confront.
’Did he really not care about death? Or is he really that confident?’ She pouted, hoping he wouldn’t do something provoking.
Because there will be only one outcome, and that is death.
She did not want to die this young.
However, Ye Chen was going to do what she feared the most.
"Heh! Finally showed yourself!"
He sneered.
The Divine Celestial Physique was not something that would appear at birth. There was only one way to acquire this physique and that was to summon it and then get acknowledged by it.
But it clearly rejected him. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Helpless, he could only create a new way to acquire this physique and that was to subdue it by force.
