Chapter 72 "The Ice Evolution at the End of the Sky"
The Chaos True Spirit merged into Gu Ce's body, causing a slight transformation in his soul and a clearer understanding of the laws.
But not many.
After a brief trial and a test of his combat prowess, Gu Ce returned to Chaos City to cultivate in seclusion, choosing not to continue hunting Chaos Beasts.
……
Passing through the sixth level of the Sky Bridge meant that Gu Ce had six opportunities to comprehend the Chaos Stele, and he also gained 63000 points.
Including the points from before, I now have a total of 163,000 points.
Gu Ce planned to use these points to purchase a body-refining technique.
physical fitness!
This is the most significant weakness of the Six-Eyed bloodline at present.
The innate secret techniques brought by the Six-Eyed Bloodline are mainly focused on the comprehension of laws, which makes the [Analysis] innate secret technique quite abnormal. However, it also creates a huge gap between the Six-Eyed Bloodline and other peak bloodlines in terms of physical qualities and divine bodies.
The twelve peak bloodlines of the Starry Sky Beasts each possess an incredibly powerful body; apart from special life forms, almost no one in the same rank can compare to them.
Gu Ce's current physical attributes, relying on a 10-fold increase in genetic level, seem quite good among the human race. However, compared to the giant beasts of the starry sky, or even some of the domain lord-level bloodlines among humans that emphasize physical constitution, he might not be able to compare.
The first three volumes of "The Ice Peak Prologue" contain 4152 fist techniques, 3789 leg techniques, and thousands of different fighting skills...
To master these close-combat techniques, one must possess exceptional physical attributes.
Within "The Ice Peak Prologue," there exists a body-refining secret technique that ranks among the top three of the human race, created by the Lord of Ice Peak. Unfortunately, this technique requires a World Lord level or higher to cultivate, and Gu Ce is currently only at the Universe level, so he cannot use it yet.
"Rimuru, search for body-refining techniques that I can afford right now," Gu Ce instructed.
"Okay." Rimuru nodded in response and immediately began searching.
The treasure trove of the Virtual Universe Company contains countless treasures and secret techniques.
After a period of searching, we finally got the results.
……
The complete "Flame Soul Body Refining Method" is worth 120,000 points (70% off in the Primal Secret Realm).
……
The first five volumes of "The Myriad Void Shadow Body" are worth 13 points (5000% off in the Primal Secret Realm).
……
The first three volumes of "The End of the Sky Ice Evolution" are worth 15 points (6500% off in the Primal Secret Realm).
……
"This is 'The End of the Sky Ice Evolution'?" Gu Ce's eyes lit up.
The title page of this secret technique clearly states that those who have consumed the Heavenly Ice Crystal Fruit can reach the optimal state of cultivation!
"Not bad!" Rimuru said smugly.
"I just learned that the Heavenly End Ice Crystal Fruit is a special plant cultivated by a King-level Immortal Alchemist named Heavenly End King in a secret universe realm, hence the name. And this 'Heavenly End Ice Evolution' was created by Heavenly End King, along with a matching body-refining secret technique. The complete set requires a full 60 points and consists of five volumes."
"Besides the Skyfall Ice Crystal Fruit, this Skyfall King has also cultivated many different plants, such as the Skyfall Ice Derivative Fruit."
"One Heavenly Ice Evolution Fruit is worth 1000 points. Besides slightly increasing one's compatibility with the fundamental laws of water, its main use is to assist in cultivating the Heavenly Ice Evolution technique."
"This 'Heavenly Ice Evolution', when fully cultivated, can achieve a maximum physical amplification of 8 times. Well, a 100-fold increase in exertion can be regarded as a 1-fold increase in physical amplification. This is also one of the basic requirements for entering the Immortal Realm."
"The first three volumes of 'The Ice Evolution of the End of the Sky' can increase the body's amplification by 4 times. When combined with the Ice Evolution Fruit of the End of the Sky, the body can be tempered by extreme cold, greatly improving physical fitness and making the body resistant to fire and cold."
"Great, this is it!" Gu Ce made the decision.
Since this secret technique suits me, there's no need to hesitate too much.
After purchasing the "Heavenly End Ice Evolution" manual, Gu Ce also found the Heavenly End Ice Evolution Fruit in the treasure vault. After a discount, he bought eight of them for 700 points each to aid his cultivation.
More than 160,000 points vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving only a pitiful 900 points.
These points weren't enough to do much, so Gu Ce applied to the Virtual Universe Company for the best cultivation plan for the Star-Eating Grass, which required additional points. Zero-Pole Venerable would pay for it on his behalf.
Next, it's time to focus on cultivation.
……
Virtual Universe's delivery speed is quite fast.
Within a few days of placing the order, the secret technique, along with those treasures, was delivered to the door of Gu Ce's residence.
After receiving the box from the staff, Gu Ce eagerly returned to his room and opened it.
"Whoosh!"
The moment the box was opened, a chilling blast of air rushed out.
What came into view were eight fruits that looked like peaches, crystal clear and emitting a white, cold aura.
The Ice Fruit of the End of the World!
The contents of the secret technique "The Ice Evolution of the End of the Sky" had already been learned and memorized by Gu Ce in the virtual universe, so there was no need to look it up again now.
"I wonder if these eight Heavenly Ice Evolution Fruits are enough for me to cultivate to the first level of the Ice Evolution Body?" Gu Ce murmured.
The first level of the Ice Body is a 1x increase in body strength. If Gu Ce can reach this level at the cosmic level, it will be a significant improvement for his strength, since Gu Ce's current power increase is only around 70x.
No more hesitation.
Taking out a Heavenly Ice Fruit and setting the rest aside, Gu Ce swallowed it without hesitation.
Upon entering, one is immediately greeted by a bone-chilling cold.
The taste of Tianmo Bingyan Fruit is completely different from that of Tianmo Bingjing Fruit.
The texture of this fruit is more like a thick marshmallow. It looks a bit chewy, but when you actually chew it, it disappears directly in your mouth and turns into water as it flows into your body.
"hiss!"
Gu Ce gasped instantly.
The aftereffects of the Heavenly Ice Fruit are quite potent!
Being in an ice cave is an indescribable feeling; it's as if one's soul has been frozen, and even the senses of the body become incredibly slow, causing the body to shiver uncontrollably.
Despite his physical discomfort, Gu Ce immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate the techniques within the "Heavenly End Ice Evolution" manual.
It guides the medicinal power of the Heavenly Ice Fruit within the body, merging it with primal energy and mental power, integrating it into the cells and deep within the body!
The medicinal power of the Heavenly Ice Fruit was being rapidly absorbed.
Gu Ce could clearly feel that his body was undergoing a transformation.
After the medicine gradually took effect, Gu Ce stood up and began to practice the fist and leg techniques from "The Ice Peak Prelude".
"Oh!"
Every punch and every move contains terrifying power.
As Gu Ce delved into these close-combat techniques, his understanding of power generation skills also gradually improved.
It is estimated that it will not be long before Gu Ce will be able to fully master the exertion of his body and achieve a 100-fold increase in power.
