Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 620 - 597: Remodeling Physique (1/3)
Chapter 620: Chapter 597: Remodeling Physique (1/3)
According to Huo Tian, one’s physical constitution is determined at birth and varies from person to person.
In the vast universe, there are countless dominant races whose descendants are born with infinite potential, capable of achieving in a mere hundred or even ten years what others could not in a lifetime.
This is what a constitution is, naturally in harmony with a certain force between heaven and earth, and the growth rate is such that not even freaks like Zhou Heng, who can absorb and refine Life Essence Qi with the Black Sword, can compare!
Constitution is not about lineage; in Huo Tian’s words, bloodline is merely the lowest form of inheritance!
A bloodline is only formed when an ancestor of a family reaches a considerable height, and their understanding of the Martial Path is integrated into the bloodline, passing down through generations. However, a constitution doesn’t require any exceptional ancestor; it’s an ability granted by the cosmos.
"Meng Fan, Yiyao, Yulian, you three are of the Mysterious Yin Physique, but your Mysterious Yin Physiques are not pure, just barely touched upon. A true Mysterious Yin Physique is naturally close to the path, and dual cultivation with a lover would not reduce your cultivation level or lifespan. I will elevate you to the true Mysterious Yin Physique!"
Huo Tian stood aloft while Ying Mengfan, Han Yiyao, and Han Yulian were seated cross-legged on the ground, nodding at Huo Tian’s words.
"Begin!" Huo Tian extended a snow-white slender finger, buzzing, and a rune on her knuckle lit up as she swiftly tapped each of their foreheads.
Ying Mengfan and the other two women collapsed the moment the finger touched them, but just an instant later, cracking noises erupted from their bodies, and they were drenched in cold sweat, quickly soaking their clothes.
Their beautiful faces turned extremely pale, their lips lost all color, and every single vein seemed about to burst out from their skin.
"Ah—" They couldn’t help but scream, but the area around was sealed off by Huo Tian, so their cries could not be heard by Zhou Heng.
"This is just the beginning; what follows will be even more painful. If you can’t endure it, the transformation of your constitutions will fail!" Huo Tian said indifferently, seemingly oblivious to their suffering.
"We will definitely persevere!" The three women said determinedly, gritting their teeth and forcibly suppressing their screams.
"How about you, would you also like to transform your constitutions?" Huo Tian asked the other women.
"Yes!" The women replied without hesitation.
"Fuxiang, you are inherently pure, and also a virgin. I will transform you into the Charming Lady Body, but remember, you must not lose your virginity before your cultivation reaches its peak, otherwise the constitution will become ineffective!"
"Moon Shadow, your aptitude is the best among everyone, but it’s not enough. I will transform you into the Moon Lady Body, making moonlight your source of cultivation!"
"Gu Zi, you follow the path of slaughter, thus, you shall have the Slaughter Body, achieving mastery through killing!"
"Yumei, Lanxin, Huoshui, you all possess a natural allure, thus, shall have the Hundred Charms Body, practicing the path of desire!"
"Lianqing, you have a trace of the Gluttonous Tribe’s constitution, so you shall have the Swallowing Body, capable of consuming everything under the heavens!"
"Yi Xiang... you are without traits, so I will simply find you a Flame Body, able to consume fire to increase your cultivation level, and when fully mastered, command all fire under the heavens!"
"Muyue, you have a trace of the Wind Clan’s constitution, so you shall have the Wind Spirit Body, capable of commanding the winds of the Nine Heaven Gang Wind!"
Although seeing each woman drenched in cold sweat, their bones loudly cracking and breaking, Nangong Yuerong and Orchid Concubine suppressed the fear in their hearts. Although the process was painful now, if they could endure it, their future prospects would be boundlessly bright!
They looked at Huo Tian with hopeful eyes, now only the two of them and Mu Tongtong remained. However, Mu Tongtong, because of the Innate Poison she had suffered and her father’s sealing within the Temporal Origin Liquid, had her constitution transformed by Huo Tian during her rescue, making further transformation unnecessary.
Huo Tian looked at the two of them and after a moment of hesitation, said, "You two need not take part!"
Thud!
Nangong Yuerong and Orchid Concubine almost spit blood. Why were they exempt? They couldn’t just be overtly discriminated against like this!
Yet they also faintly understood; it was because Zhou Heng disliked them, and thus Huo Tian, their Senior Sister, showed them partial treatment. But did they dare to complain to Huo Tian? They could only retreat to one side, heartbroken.
"Sister, Sister, what about Tongtong?" The little girl with Elf Race blood clung to her, having always been in the Nine Mystic Trial Tower in retreat. She had recently shot up to become the Moonlight King and surpassed her predecessors by acquiring the Seven Wheels Waning Moon.
"You already possess the bloodline of the Elf Empress, able to command all the trees under heaven, no need for further enhancement!" Huo Tian said weakly; after all, her realm was only that of a Moonlight King, and transforming so many constitutions at once was taxing for her.
"But Tongtong still wants to be more formidable, just like Sister!" Mu Tongtong tried to snuggle into Huo Tian’s arms, her most powerful ploy for sympathy, one that usually worked on Ying Mengfan and the other women.
Huo Tian just glanced at her, and Mu Tongtong instantly felt a chill in her heart, laughed dryly, and quickly retracted her body.
...
Seven hours later, Zhou Heng rose to his full height and at the thought, seventeen Bright Moons shone behind him.
The Life Essence Qi of three Three Wheels Moonlight Emperors and one Peak Moonlight Emperor had increased his Bright Moons by three wheels!
He scanned the area and saw that all the women were lying down haphazardly, their clothes soaked with sweat, looking as though they had just been intimate with him. However, their faces didn’t carry the flushed charm of post-coital bliss but were frightfully pale instead.
What happened?
He looked at Huo Tian and was not overly worried. How could anything go wrong with such a Peerless Heavenly Maiden in charge?
"I’ve helped them transform their physiques. Right now, they are in a critical period. As long as they persevere, their future cultivation speed will not be inferior to yours and might even surpass you!" Huo Tian said indifferently.
Only then did Zhou Heng understand what was happening. He couldn’t help but give a wry smile and said, "You didn’t have to make them so powerful. What if they all end up ruling over me?"
Huo Tian ignored his joke, pretending she hadn’t heard.
"Then can you improve my physique as well?" Zhou Heng asked again.
"You don’t need it!"
"Why not?"
"I can’t see through it!"
"What do you mean?"
"I can’t see through your physique, and since you’ve received your master’s legacy, you don’t need any physique enhancement."
That’s so unfair!
"How long will it take for them to complete the transformation of their physiques?" Zhou Heng asked.
"Three to five days!"
Zhou Heng frowned slightly. The Creation Emperor at Earth’s Core would appear in no less than ten days. They didn’t have much time! But since it had already happened, he wouldn’t dwell on it. Fine, he thought, I’ll just stay here and guard them. If anyone else comes looking for trouble, I’ll slaughter them all!
If he could be elevated to the level of a Moonlight Emperor, then he must at least start as an Eight-Wheel Moonlight Emperor! Even if Zhong Gufeng greatly concealed his strength, actually possessing Eight Wheels, or even Nine Wheels or Ten Wheels, starting from Eight Wheels already signifies a qualitative change, completely comparable to Ten Wheels.
He calmed his mind and continued exploring the conversion of the Overturning Heaven Palm and Feiyu Seven Swords into fist techniques and finger swords, refining these two techniques until mature. He actually wanted to convert the Sky-soaring Nine Forms into fist techniques and finger swords as well, but that swordsmanship was so profound and enigmatic that he could only copy blindly without any right to alter it.
There really were some who had the guts. Because of the influence of the Moonlight Lotus, this Starwind Trial had attracted many young prodigies from high-tier Immortal Cities, some of whom had just entered the Third Layer Heaven. But for the sake of the Moonlight Lotus, they were willing to try their luck.
After all, if they couldn’t win, they would simply reveal their identities; typically, no one would fatally strike them. Their goal was clear and single-minded, aimed solely at the Moonlight Lotus.
With more people, some would inevitably be troublemakers. Seeing Ying Mengfan with so many beautiful women naturally aroused their desires. Deeming themselves stronger than the Moonlight Sovereign, they foolishly came to cause trouble.
As a result, Zhou Heng slaughtered one after another, killing a pair when two came. In just four days, he had slaughtered another seven Moonlight Emperors!
His Moon Wheel count had now reached twenty wheels, extremely close to the twenty-one wheel limit he had at the Moonlight King stage.
Moon Shadow Saintess, Gu Zi, and Feng Lianqing were the first to complete their physique transformation. Though they looked like they had crawled out of Hell when they woke up, there was a noticeable change in their Essence, Qi, and Spirit. Zhou Heng couldn’t quite put his finger on it, but it was a completely different feeling.
Next were Ying Mengfan, Han Yiyao, and Han Yulian, the three with the Mysterious Yin Physique.
After they woke up, Huo Tian said, "They are now true Mysterious Yin Physiques. If you dual cultivate with them, it should help you break through to Twenty-One Wheels."
When she talked about dual cultivation, her expression remained unchanged, as if she wasn’t discussing matters of intimacy but rather something mundane like eating or breathing.
A few women had yet to complete their physique transformation. Since there was time, Zhou Heng’s gaze shifted across the three women, and he revealed a mischievous smile that made all three lower their heads involuntarily.
He burst out laughing, scooped up the three women, and entered the Nine Mystic Trial Tower.
"Big pervert, you want to flaunt your lasciviousness in broad daylight; that’s too lecherous!"
"It’s clearly night!" Zhou Heng chuckled and said, "We have limited time, let’s start now!"
The three women were bashful to no end. Though none was a blushing bride, there was still an odd sensation.
"Come on!" Zhou Heng said with a big swoop, tossing the three women onto the bed.
Since he hadn’t yet obtained an Immortal Residence, this Nine Mystic Trial Tower was his mobile home, and its interior decoration was second to none, equipped with all kinds of furniture.
Everyone was so familiar; there was no need for pretense. Soon, they were entangled with each other.
At the pinnacle of their climb, a robust power surged into Zhou Heng’s body, then returned into the bodies of the three women, cleansed by nature’s spiritual energy as if he had just broken through a realm.
Not only he benefited in this manner, but the three women did as well. However, when Zhou Heng persevered for a second round, he didn’t gain any cultivation increase.
Just like the first time with the three women, it was a one-hit deal. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
