Chapter 145 Grade 4 Genesis Beas (1/2)

“Myriad Transformations…”

Zhou Yuan’s finger brushed across the ancient Genesis Rune as a brilliant splendour blossomed in his eyes. In that split second earlier, he had already understood the function of this Genesis Rune.

His hand gradually tightened around the Heavenly Yuan Brush, suddenly jerking it a moment later.

Bzz!

A powerful Genesis ripple pulsed from the brush as the snow-white hairs at its tip began to expand and lengthen.

Swish!

Zhou Yuan swung the brush as its hairs transformed into a long snow-white whip that swept across the area.

Pch!

The air was blasted away with a cackle as the long snow-white whip swept past. After a full round, the towering ancient trees in the vicinity were cleanly cut at their waists, the interiors smooth as a mirror.

The hairs that made up the long whip shook again. In a split second, they had already dispersed, transforming into countless almost invisible white threads that engulfed the area to their front.

Chch!

The wall in front of them was poked full of innumerable holes so deep that it was impossible to see the bottom.

Zhou Yuan’s arm jerked and the countless snow-white hairs shot back towards him, returning to the brush tip.

“So… this is Myriad Transformations!” A fire seemed to burn within Zhou Yuan’s eyes as they gleamed brightly.

The third rune seemed to have bestowed life unto the Heavenly Yuan Brush, allowing the hairs of the brush tip to take on countless forms. As such, the brush would become even stranger and more unfamthomnable, making it hard to defend against it.

In future fights, the transformation powers of the Heavenly Yuan Brush would surely make his opponents suffer.

“It’s a pity that the Heavenly Yuan Brush only recovered to the mid grade Black tier level after unlocking the third rune.” Zhou Yuan had originally thought that it would be able to rise to the high grade Black tier level.

Though it was a little disappointing, a mid grade Black tier Genesis Weapon was still more than sufficient. The current Heavenly Yuan Brush and its three runes was no weaker than high grade Black tier Genesis Weapons. In fact, when using the third rune Myriad Transformations, there was likely no weapon that could come close to it in the bizarreness aspect.

Zhou Yuan continued to play with the brush for some time, before grudgingly turning it back to its smaller form and returning it to his waistband.

Zhou Yuan muttered to himself, “I should hurry up and kill more Genesis Beasts, take their pure Genesis Qi and strengthen myself such that my Genesis Qi cultivation will advance to the Heaven Gate stage as soon as possible.”

There was an insane difference between the Qi Nourishing stage and the Heaven Gate stage. Bluntly put, the Qi Nourishing stage was akin to laying one’s foundations, while the Heaven Gate stage was where one was finally bestowed destructive powers.

Only at the Heaven Gate stage would the Genesis Qi in the body be allowed to freely leave and display its true might.

Even though Zhou Yuan was currently able to temporarily achieve a similar effect with the amazing Omni Python Qi and Black tier Genesis techniques, there was still a gap between this and the true Heaven Gate stage.

Of course, the most direct and observable difference could be seen when he was travelling. Even when Zhou Yuan was in a rush, he could only leap and sprint, unable to achieve the feat of temporary flight like abilities by using Genesis Qi to support one’s body.

Thus, reaching the Heaven Gate stage was the most important goal for the current Zhou Yuan.

...

In the following few days, Zhou Yuan swept across the area like a hurricane. Every mountain he passed was nearly turned upside down as ferocious Genesis Beast after beast became victim to his brush.

As he hunted and killed, Zhou Yuan could feel the Genesis Qi in Qi Dwelling strengthen day by day, growing more abundant and powerful.

However, there was one thing that baffled him; the feeling that he was going to breakthrough to the next cultivation level still did not come to him.

In a deep barren valley.

Corpses were scattered all over the ground, while Zhou Yuan sat in the middle of the carnage. His current appearance was rather ragged, bloody wound after wound visible on his body, evidence that he had just experienced a pretty tough battle.

It was indeed as it looked. Zhou Yuan had discovered this valley half a day prior, which contained over a hundred Metal Bone Wolves. Amongst them, a little more than twenty were comparably to the Heaven Gate stage, while the rest had Qi Nourishing stage strength.
