Da Xuan Martial Saint

When the proportion of golden blood in one's martial blood reaches a certain level, trying to further refine more golden blood becomes as difficult as climbing to the heavens. Often, it takes one or two years just to refine ten drops, and the improvement brought by this is naturally negligible.

Many martial artists even believe that golden blood is the 'heart blood' possessed by those of the ninth and tenth ranks of Heavenly Demons. It is also the true essence blood accumulated by these martial artists. In the Blood Exchange Realm, they rely on this essence blood to make their bodies more resilient and refined, capable of drawing more power during the burst of Vigorous strength.

But now.

In Chen Mu's cracked skin, the bright red is gradually fading, replaced by almost an entire golden hue!

With each rupture and healing of the skin, this process accelerates, making the red blood within Chen Mu's body less and less, while the golden blood becomes more and more. Until at last, the red blood is almost invisible, and all that meets the eye is golden brilliance!

"Blood Exchange..."

"So, the Blood Exchange Realm can truly be cultivated to transform all martial blood into golden blood..."

Qin Mengjun looked at Chen Mu's body, unable to stop her murmured shock.

It is called golden blood.

But, in fact, as an expert in the Blood Exchange Realm herself, she knows very well that this golden blood can hardly be considered 'blood' at all; it is almost the power of heaven and earth condensed to the extreme and integrated into one's martial blood.

Each drop of golden blood contains life force and heaven and earth's Yuan Qi, so vigorous it's unimaginable.

If a martial artist at the level of the Five Organ and Viscera Realm were to casually swallow a drop of golden blood, their body would likely be unable to withstand it and would collapse and explode on the spot, just like consuming Heavenly Demon Heart Blood, which they simply cannot bear!

The Eighth Realm of Body Tempering Martial Arts is named the 'Blood Exchange' Realm because the martial arts sage who initially developed this realm thought that this realm is the process of gradually replacing all martial blood with golden blood. In the end, the entire body flows with golden blood condensed by heaven and earth's Yuan Qi, thereby refining the entire body, achieving a complete metamorphosis, shedding the mortal body, and reaching a new realm.

However.

Since the emergence of the Blood Exchange Realm, it is unknown how many years have passed, yet no one has been able to transform all of their martial blood into golden blood. Countless exceptional martial artists have persistently advanced along this path, but none have succeeded.

As a result, in this generation, many even consider this path a wrong one, insisting only through the comprehension of Artistic Conception, the comprehension of the Celestial Human Dao, blending oneself into the heavens and earth, is the correct subsequent path in martial arts practice.

But now.

Chen Mu has proven that this path is feasible!

Among the world's martial artists, indeed, through the Body Tempering Martial Arts, it's possible to achieve Perfection on the path of Blood Exchange, reaching the ultimate, thoroughly refining and transforming all martial blood, reaching a true state of Great Perfection!

"Phew."

At this moment, Chen Mu, with eyes closed in a cross-legged position, his chest constantly heaving.

He is breathing, inhaling and exhaling heaven and earth's Yuan Qi.

Waves of heaven and earth's Yuan Qi, through the side formation core of the Qiankun Lock Dragon Formation, are forcibly extracted from the Earth's Veins, infused into Chen Mu's body, and scatter the blood qi pervading the entire mountain cave.

Since Yin Heng outside had been prepared, constantly controlling the Qiankun Lock Dragon Formation, upon sensing the change, he immediately moved the formation core, simultaneously controlling the disturbances, unreservedly channeling the Power of the Earth continuously over.

Sizzle, sizzle!

Chen Mu's skin still continues to fracture and heal, only the speed is increasingly slowing down, and the cracking marks are becoming smaller and smaller, from the initially cracking all over the body, now only some parts occasionally show a few slits.

And the blood within his body seems to have completely transformed into bright gold, and those skin cracks show no trace of red.

But.

In such a state, Chen Mu clearly knows in his heart that the transformation is not completely over yet; there remains some remnants of 'red blood' within his body's golden blood.

The step of achieving Blood Refinement Perfection, indeed as he foresaw, will transform all martial blood completely from dark red to bright gold, seemingly shedding the mortal body, stepping from the mundane to the sacred, but this step is by no means easy.

This refinement of golden blood has never been a transitional process of one drop at a time!

The golden blood infiltrates the red blood internally, blending into one entity, with no distinction. The final path of refinement is to strip away and remove all mundane qualities from the whole body's blood, leaving only the purest golden essence blood. The closer to the purest, the more difficult the refinement, and if he had to cultivate it on his own, the difficulty would be unimaginable!

But for the system panel, whether it is the initial start of refinement or this final step of refinement, the efficiency has never changed, consistently advancing step by step.

Finally.

After the last breath, Chen Mu felt his entire body undergo an abrupt change!

The last trace of mundane blood impurities was completely refined and transformed. The blood flowing within him is now truly golden blood, arguably the essence blood of heaven and earth, and he has finally reached the Realm of Blood Refinement Perfection!

"Heaven and Earth Essence Blood."

At the moment the transformation ended, Chen Mu regained control over his body, feeling an endless surge, a kind of unmatched, absolute power.

If heaven and earth were to bleed, then what would flow would be this golden martial blood within him!

At this moment.

Chen Mu felt not just the vast unmatched physical power; he also perceived a wisp of restraint within the ethereal in regards to his body, and he knew what this restraint was.
