Half a year passed quietly.

In that deep and unfathomable darkness, almost ten thousand feet above the ground, I could still sense the sound of my heartbeat.
This sound is intertwined with the occasional chirping of insects or accompanied by the creepy hissing of lizards.

As time goes by, this once vigorous and vibrant heartbeat gradually becomes dull and weak.
Its beating frequency also slowed down from once per second to once every three to five seconds.
Until finally it became weaker and slower, as if it had stopped completely.

To this day, the only sound that can still be vaguely detected is

All that was left was the endless, teeth-chattering chewing sounds of the snakes and insects.

Although half a year was just a blink of an eye for the outside world, it was a long and difficult time for Xie Que.

With his quick recovery ability, whenever part of his body was eaten by snakes and insects,
He can repair the parts that have been eaten and restore a little vitality to stay alive.

Before this, the body of the Beiju Wumin was polished by Xie Que.
His body was as perfect as if it had been cut by a knife or an axe. Every inch of his muscles was strong and powerful, and he exuded an ultimate fusion of violence and aesthetics.

However, at this moment, his originally tall, broad and imposing body was completely covered by a thick layer of blood scab.

Like a silkworm in a cocoon, or a cicada bound by a shell, it is experiencing a painful struggle before metamorphosis.

Hidden beneath this layer of blood scab is Xie Que's body, which has been deeply corroded by snake and insect poison.

In this endless darkness, none of his muscle fibers, blood vessels, and meridians were spared, and his internal organs were also incomplete.

They are either riddled with holes from toxins or constantly being gnawed by ruthless insect poisons.

Xie Que's face became hideous and ferocious at this moment, as if he was a ghost crawling out of hell.
His two eyes had been eaten by poisonous insects, leaving only empty and deep eye sockets.

But even so, Xie Que still maintained the posture of sitting cross-legged on the ground with his five hearts facing the sky, without any change.

Due to the enormous pressure created by the accumulation of countless rocks and soil, Xie Que's bones were broken inch by inch and his muscles were rotten.

But with his terrifying willpower, the martial arts spirit he forged supported his almost collapsed body and temporarily resisted the terrifying pressure that was enough to crush him into pieces.

At this moment, Xie Que's eyes were half open and half closed, and the emptiness in his pupils was like an abyss.

Between his lips and teeth, the words "calm and unmovable like the earth" kept echoing.

Suddenly, his chanting stopped, and his hoarse and sharp voice seemed to come from the underworld.

"Success or failure in half a year depends on today."

Xie Que knew very well that the risk this time was probably even greater than opening up the cave world during the Martial God stage.

Opening up the cave world is already the stage of martial god, even if it fails,
A piece of flesh and blood can still be left, and with the help of the magical power of rebirth by dripping blood, one can regain life.

However, his body at the moment was only at the third level of the martial arts realm, and even the ghosts could not sense it.
This means that if his practice fails, everything he has will come to nothing.

Even so, Xie Que never retreated or hesitated at all.

He put his own life and death aside and devoted himself to the pursuit of the ultimate martial arts with an almost crazy enthusiasm.

However, the speed of time flow in the Samsara Paradise is very different from that in the outside world, so Xie Que spent a year in the Samsara Paradise, while only half a day passed in the Maha Realm.

Such a time difference means that potential threats such as Jerry Yang may not have realized his potential.

Since he decided to rebuild his martial arts, Xie Que was determined to do everything to the utmost.

Strive to reach a point in each realm where there is no room for further advancement before considering breaking through to the next level.

Half a year later, Xie Que has already noticed that
His super-fast recovery ability has surpassed the gnawing speed of those snakes and insects.

This change was reflected not only in the speed of his body's recovery, but also in his rejuvenated internal organs.

After countless rebirths and repairs, these internal organs have been covered with a layer of bloody luster.
This layer of luster seemed like an indestructible barrier, preventing the fangs of insects and snakes from penetrating into his flesh and blood.

All this rebirth and recovery is not without cost.

During the recovery process, Xie Que's body experienced unprecedented consumption and hardship.

His arms, which were once as thick as buckets, have now become thin and weak.

All the muscles and fat were almost consumed.

Not only that, there was not much blood left in his body.

Originally, they were flowing like rivers, but now only the most basic amount is left, barely maintaining the minimum needs of life.

If Xie Que had not relied on his strong body to accumulate a huge amount of blood and energy as support,

I'm afraid he had already been defeated in this ordeal and became another pile of bones under this barren land.

However, even in such a difficult situation, the Qi and blood in Xie Que's body still showed amazingly profound strength.

Even though they have been almost consumed, the remaining energy and blood are as thick as the sum of three or five martial arts masters.

Within Xie Que's meridians, which had been eaten away by insects and snakes until only a narrow strip remained, the remaining qi and blood were stirred up like a surging ocean, emitting bursts of roaring sounds like the tide.

As the qi and blood began to flow again, Xie Que's heartbeat, which had become weak due to long-term consumption, began to regain its vigorous and powerful vitality.

It was beating faster and faster, and each beat was like a rumbling thunder exploding in Xie Que's chest.

Finally, pushed by this force, the poisonous insect that was biting Xie Que's liver tightly began to be squeezed by the muscle strength that was restored in Xie Que's body.

Under the crushing force, it was instantly crushed into powder and turned into nothingness, as if it had never existed.

The powdered remains of these poisonous insects were quickly devoured by the surging blood in Xie Que's body and turned into nutrients to nourish his body.

Afterwards, the rest of the poisonous insects suffered the same fate.

Under the impact of the mighty Qi and blood in Xie Que's body, they continued to transform into blood-colored mist.
Then it was completely consumed by the surging blood and energy and dissipated into nothingness.

Even the most powerful little snake, which was covered in scales and almost turned into a dragon, was defeated by the unstoppable force in Xie Que's body.

It was instantly crushed into meat paste, and then swept away by the vast energy and blood.

All of this was created by Xie Que based on the Dragon Snake Ringing the World Sutra, integrating the essence of the true interpretation of martial arts, and after countless times of deliberation, he finally modified it.

This cultivation system gave him the ability to devour almost everything. No matter what kind of substance it was, it could be refined by the high-temperature and hot blood in his body, and then assimilated into a part of his own blood, becoming the source of his blood.

As the snakes and insects turned into nutrients to nourish his body, Xie Que's physical burden gradually eased.

As a result, his heartbeat became heavier and more powerful, like the beating of a war drum.

boom!Boom!

The next moment, the blood and energy in Xie Que's body burst like a river, turning into a surging torrent.
It quickly traveled through the veins in his body, causing waves of strong fluctuations.

Wherever the blood and qi passed, they were all covered by the thick blood mist that escaped.

This blood mist was like the nectar of life, nourishing every inch of Xie Que's skin, every muscle, and even every tiny blood vessel.

Under the nourishment of this blood mist, Xie Que's body parts that had been eaten by snakes and insects were now recovering at an astonishing speed.

Every muscle and every bone is glowing with vitality under the baptism of qi and blood, as if they have been endowed with terrifying new vitality, becoming tougher and stronger.

The parts that were once the most severely damaged have now miraculously recovered to near perfection.
It was as if he had never experienced any harm, not even a faint trace was left.

When this energy and blood flowed through the brain, the most delicate and fragile part, Xie Que couldn't help but slow down, and every movement he made was extremely cautious.

He knew very well that the brain was the control center of the whole body, and any slight mistake could lead to unpredictable consequences, or even put him in an irretrievable situation.

Therefore, even when he was facing such an important and fragile part, he did not dare to be careless or rash at all.

At the same time, Xie Que's heart and lungs seemed to have turned into greedy beasts, which kept devouring every bit of blood and energy left in his body.

It is like a thirsty person finally finding sweet rain, enjoying the nourishment from the depths of life to the fullest.

Under the nourishment of this energy and blood, the various functional levels in Xie Que's body began to surge at an astonishing speed.
It was as if there was an invisible force pushing him forward, causing him to constantly break through his own limits.

This surge in power does not come from his own potential, but is a temporary effect of various hormones under specific conditions.

However, for him at this moment, this is enough.

After all, it is not easy to escape from this abyss, let alone a martial arts master.

Even to become a martial arts immortal, one needs to pay a huge price.

After completing all this, Xie Que continued to sit cross-legged on the ground without panic.

Xie Que knew that he still had one last crucial preparation to complete.

So he slowly closed his eyes and let his spiritual will instantly immerse itself in a dark space.

In this space, he saw a being that was extremely similar to him. That was the inner demon bred by this witch's body.

This inner demon was deliberately cultivated by Xie Que using the method of the origin of inner demons. It integrated the main consciousness and subconsciousness of the witch's body, and also incorporated some of Xie Que's memories.

"You took my body away..."

The voice of the inner demon echoed in the dark space.

But before he finished speaking, Xie Que flicked his fingertips lightly, and the body of the inner demon shattered like fragile glass.

Its fragments turned into dots of light and merged into Xie Que's own spiritual world.
In a flash, Xie Que's spiritual world became purer and more powerful.

This action was Xie Que's decisive move to completely resolve the potential hidden dangers of this body.

Now, Xie Que's understanding of the great cause and effect has become quite profound.

He seemed to be standing on the torrent of fate, overlooking the web of cause and effect, no longer afraid that someone could do something to him in this regard.

However, as cautious as he is, he will not leave any potential hidden dangers.
So, he set about erasing all the remaining marks left by the body he had taken over.
Make sure you have complete control over this body and no longer be disturbed by any external forces.

"If you want to achieve the ultimate, you must first break through your own limits." Xie Que silently repeated this sentence in his heart.

In this deep underground, without the nourishment of spiritual energy, Xie Que could not accurately judge how much his body's blood and qi capacity had increased.

But he could clearly feel that compared to before, the body's capacity for qi and blood had at least doubled.

Under such torture, coupled with the "calm and unmovable" I realized,
It has already made the body like a rock, eternal and motionless.

Xie Que slowly opened his eyes. The eyes that had been torn apart by snakes and insects had now fully recovered.
However, the whites of his eyes were covered with fine red blood vessels due to the violent surge of qi and blood, making them extremely eye-catching.

He took a deep breath, and like a wild beast ready to attack, a low and powerful roar came from his throat.

At this moment, his heart, blood, tendons and bones seemed to respond to his will, erupting with thunderous sounds, like a thunderbolt exploding in the sky.

In the centuries-long battle with Jidu Tianjun, Xie Que's will was tempered to be harder than steel.

This abyss of the ground could not imprison him forever.

Then, the layers of blood scabs covering his body burst instantly, turning into a blood mist.
Xie Que was like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, or like a dragon entering the river or the sea, regaining his freedom.

He held on to the thick rock and soil with his hands like iron pliers, and used all his strength to climb up.

After several hours of hard work, Xie Que finally jumped out from underground and bathed in the sun again.

At this moment, he was covered in dust, and his originally strong body became thin due to long-term consumption, as if only a layer of skin was left covering the bones.

"The timing is just right, it should still be in time."

Xie Que sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and concentrated.

After about seven or eight incense sticks of time, a gap in the void suddenly opened up in front of his eyes.
What flows out of it is the power of the world transmitted by the God of Seeking through special means.

This was the result Xie Que had drawn long ago through his own powerful predictive ability in the Other Shore Realm. Even a strong man like Yang Zhiyuan,
All he could sense was that the source of this power seemed to have accidentally fallen from the void, and he could not associate it with Lord Qiusuo.

Xie Que slowly stretched out his hand and gently grasped the golden world power in his hand.

At that moment, he seemed to feel the pulse of fate beating gently in his palm.
