858 Breakthrough to the Eighth Innate Stage

Chu Yunfan had been preparing for a whole month, stuffing himself with food and eating tens of billions worth of Innate pills, all for the sake of breaking through.

Of course, with his strength, he could break through slowly, but that would take a lot of time. And what he lacked the most right now was time. He had destroyed the Jiangs' grand plan, and once the Jiang Great Ancestor returned, he would have to face his greatest test.

Before that, he had to make himself stronger.

Although the Chu Great Ancestor had also sent word from outer space that he would stall the Jiang Great Ancestor, Chu Yunfan was never one to place his hopes on others.

Moreover, there were also the Fluttering Blooms that were eyeing him. He truly did not have much time left.

Under the control of the Emperor Method, the powerful medicinal strength turned into a surging energy that began to rush through his meridians which had yet to be activated.

If all the previous stages before the Innate Stage were to cultivate one's body, then the Innate Stage was to cultivate one's meridians. The cultivation of the Acquired Stage could only form a small circulation of the body.

However, Innate Stage experts had to open up even more meridians. After opening up the Heaven and Earth bridge, they would be able to resonate with nature and form a great Innate energy circulation. Every movement of one's hands and feet would contain great power.

The more meridians they opened up, the stronger the power the Innate expert could borrow.

And now, most of the meridians in Chu Yunfan's body had already been opened, and the remaining ones were also extremely strong. This was because as he cultivated the Imperial Physique, he also strengthened his meridians at the same time.

If not for this, his meridians would not have been able to withstand the immense pressure when he blasted out this raging power and would have exploded.

This was a problem that Chu Yunfan had to face when he opened his meridians. Now, it had finally come to an end.

Under the support of the massive medicinal power, Chu Yunfan now forcefully opened up the meridians that originally needed to be carefully opened. Only he—who had cultivated both the Imperial Physique and the Thunderclap Physique—could withstand this kind of torment.

Even so, his entire body was covered in a cold sweat. One could imagine how much pressure and pain he was under.

But Chu Yunfan didn't give up, because he knew that he had to break through to the eighth Innate Stage. If he failed, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

As he opened up his meridians one by one, the originally solid barrier of the eighth Innate Stage began to crack and was on the verge of collapse.

Chu Yunfan wasn't in a hurry, so he just tried to break through step by step. However, the efficacy of the medicine he had taken in the past month was amazing, so even though he did everything step by step, the efficiency of the process was amazing.

Chu Yunfan was still able to watch over the alchemic furnace to ensure that there would be no problems with the concoction process. If it were any other alchemist, they would not dare to be as bold.

Time passed day by day. Finally, after three days, Chu Yunfan suddenly opened his eyes. The blocked medicinal power in his body was released all at once, sweeping out like a flood.

He had finally opened up his last meridian, and he rushed into the eighth Innate Stage. His strength had a fundamental improvement.

Compared to before, the efficiency of Chu Yunfan's energy output had increased by at least several folds, and the improvement in his combat strength was self-evident.

If he were to exchange blows with the vice-sect master of the Fluttering Blooms again, the man would not be able to last that long and would be heavily injured with a single punch.

The increase in combat power was so obvious. The Imperial Physique was so powerful.

And Chu Yunfan absorbed the rest of the massive medicinal power while circulating his Emperor Method, scattering it into his limbs and bones. With the help of this massive medicinal power, he could consolidate his new cultivation level in the shortest time possible.

Now that the barrier of the eighth Innate Stage was gone, this feeling of breaking through almost made Chu Yunfan a little intoxicated.

'No wonder it's said that there's no cycle of cultivation in the mountains. The happiness of cultivation is better than all the happiness in the world,' Chu Yunfan thought to himself. Even he was a little addicted to the joy of cultivation.

Although cultivation was boring, if one could sense the progress of cultivation like him, then the dullness could also become incomparable happiness.

Chu Yunfan stood up and his body made a series of crackling sounds. He had been sitting there for three days and three nights without moving.

And after this breakthrough, the Divinity Nourishment Pill was also about to be completed.

'Since there's still some time left, I'll practice the Eight Astonishing Punches,' Chu Yunfan decided after some thought.

He had only managed to cultivate one of the portions of the Eight Astonishing Punches. In fact, the Eight Astonishing Punches were made up of eight different techniques.

Previously, his cultivation level was not high enough to cultivate two different wondrous techniques at the same time. Now that his cultivation level was much stronger than before, he could continue to cultivate.

He decided to practice the Garuda Portion of the Eight Astonishing Punches. The Garuda was one of the eight guardians of the Buddha in ancient legends. If it were to be described in a more familiar way, it was the golden roc.

This golden roc ate dragons. Everyone knew that dragons were the top creatures in the world. Their life level was very high. However, this golden roc consumed dragons as food. One could imagine how powerful it was.

In addition to being able to spit out an extremely powerful flame—which was the Garuda flame—the most amazing thing about the golden roc was its speed.

When using the Garuda Portion, one's speed could be increased to the extreme. When combined with Chu Yunfan's Nine Heavenly Deity Transformations, his speed would really be increased to an astonishing degree.

At that time, he would be able to go anywhere in the world.

Chu Yunfan closed his eyes, and the cultivation method of the Garuda Portion from the Mighty Emperor Battle Book appeared in his mind. Countless words appeared in his mind, and in an instant, turned into a huge golden roc. With a cry, it shook the world. Just by visualizing this secret method, he felt as if he possessed the secrets of nature. He could fly in the sky and escape the earth.

And around Chu Yunfan's body, an incomparably huge golden roc appeared. It was not the slightest bit inferior to the asura from before and looked extremely fierce from a distance.

Countless cultivation information was transmitted into Chu Yunfan's mind.

All of a sudden, Chu Yunfan threw out a punch. This punch was different from the one from the Asura Portion. A red flame launched out from his fist, and the temperature in the room instantly rose.

The moment Chu Yunfan threw out this punch, many of the Chu experts outside the villa instantly felt as if an incomparably huge bird of prey had appeared in front of their eyes and was about to devour the world.

That flame was enough to burn the whole world.
