Chapter 88 - 88: The Carp Leaps Over the Dragon Gate - One Realm Beyond Another! (2)
However, with Lu Changsheng’s exceptional comprehension score of 581 points, in just an hour, it seemed as though he had grasped the essence of it.
“The ‘Ninefold Leap Over the Dragon Gate’ primarily revolves around ‘Carp Transforming into a Dragon’ as its core concept, using the human body as nine ascending dragon gates, progressively climbing them to achieve ‘Carp Transforming into a Dragon.'”
“One realm beyond another.”
In an instant, Lu Changsheng understood a glimpse of the true meaning of the ‘Ninefold Leap Over the Dragon Gate.’
He needed to concentrate his entire life force, willpower, and more into one point, then use the human body as nine ascending realms, executing a transition like a “Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate.”
One leap represented an advancement.
Lu Changsheng hardly hesitated. At this moment, his vitality and spirit were at their peak.
When else was a better time to make the leap?
“Boom.”
Lu Changsheng felt as if he had transformed into a carp, wanting to rise over the high dragon gate.
At the same time, his life force was intensely concentrated, rapidly depleting.
This leap seemed to last an instant and also felt like a long time.
Lu Changsheng seemed to have reached the top of the high dragon gate, and with all his strength, he leaped over it.
“Buzz.”
The moment he felt himself pass the dragon gate, the marrow in his bones vibrated intensely, and the blood in his body also surged vigorously.
This feeling was too familiar, Blood Marrow Exchange!
Yes, this was the Blood Marrow Exchange!
Lu Changsheng had undergone this process twice before, so he was very familiar with it.
One hour, two hours, three hours…
It wasn’t until dawn that Lu Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes.
“Swish.”
There was no hint of fatigue in Lu Changsheng’s gaze; instead, he appeared full of energy.
And in just this one night, Lu Changsheng had undergone his third Blood Marrow Exchange. His physical strength had increased by ten cauldrons, reaching a total of thirty cauldrons of power!
An increase of ten cauldrons of power in a single night!
Furthermore, he had accomplished this without using any external items; Lu Changsheng had merely “leaped over the dragon gate.”
“It’s incredible! Truly amazing.”
“So, shall I try the second leap over the dragon gate?”
With a thought, Lu Changsheng imagined himself once again transforming into a carp, gathering all his strength, and leaping towards the dragon gate.
This time, Lu Changsheng had to leap over the second dragon gate!
“Boom.”
Lu Changsheng attempted the “Leap Over the Dragon Gate” once again.
He leaped high, even surpassing the first dragon gate. However, right after crossing the first dragon gate, it seemed like he lacked the strength to reach the second dragon gate.
With a “splash,” Lu Changsheng seemed to fall back into the water.
In reality, just a moment ago, Lu Changsheng had been vigorous, and his vitality surged.
But the next moment, he felt like a punctured balloon, with his vitality and spirit rapidly waning. He began to gasp heavily, as if he were extremely exhausted.
“This attempt failed.”
“To successfully leap over the dragon gate, it must be achieved in one go. Otherwise, it’s impossible to leap over the dragon gate twice.”
“The interval between my first and second attempts was too short, and my vitality and spirit didn’t fully recover to their peak.”
“At least it will take approximately a month, or even longer, to attempt the leap over the dragon gate again. Otherwise, if I fail, it will take longer to recover.”
Lu Changsheng had gained some insights into the nuances of the “Leap Over the Dragon Gate.”
One should never attempt to leap over the dragon gate without absolute necessity.
Once a failure occurred, it would consume too much time.
Just like now, after failing once, Lu Changsheng needed at least two to three months or even longer to adjust his vitality and spirit to the conditions required for the leap over the dragon gate.
If he failed again, it would further delay him for two to three months or even longer.
“However, even if I can only leap over the dragon gate once for now, it will still bring me to the first level of the ‘Ninefold Leap Over the Dragon Gate,’ increasing my power by ten cauldrons.”
“Now, I already possess thirty cauldrons of power!”
“And I still have a blood crystal. As long as the Blood Crystal Secret Art is perfected, 1 can immediately refine it, which will increase my power by another ten cauldrons.”
Lu Changsheng took out the “Blood Crystal Secret Art” from his pocket.
The Blood Crystal Secret Art wasn’t difficult, but it required a lengthy period of time.
With Lu Changsheng’s comprehension, he quickly grasped the Blood Crystal Secret Art.
So, he accessed the attribute panel.
Host: Lu Changsheng
Comprehension: 581 (Hidden Dragon in the Abyss)
Blood Crystal Secret Art: Basic
Ninefold Leap Over the Dragon Gate: First Level
Dragon God Transformation: First Transformation
Nine-Character Thunderous Chant: Perfection (Incomplete)
Lu Changsheng looked at the martial arts on the attribute panel and was quite satisfied.
He had recently broken through to the Divine Power Realm, and his strength had increased significantly, currently in a rapid upward trend.
With some more hidden cultivation, his strength would surely soar.
Perhaps, he wasn’t too far from the Hundred Cauldrons Realm.
If other Divine Power Realm warriors knew about his progress, they would probably be envious to the point of madness.
Ordinary warriors, even if they managed to reach the Divine Power Realm, would often stagnate in their strength.
To make improvements, it would take them “years” or even “decades.”
But what about Lu Changsheng?
His strength increased on a “monthly” basis. Shortly after achieving the Divine Power Realm, he already possessed thirty cauldrons of power. The speed of his improvement was astonishing!
Lu Changsheng then proceeded to organize the martial arts and techniques in his package once again.
In the end, he had sorted out three hundred and eighteen martial arts.
However, over two hundred martial arts had already been practiced by Lu Changsheng.
In the end, only sixty-eight martial arts remained.
But these sixty-eight martial arts were of high quality.
Most of them were third or fourth-tier martial arts, and there were even fifth or sixth-tier, or seventh and eighth-tier martial arts.
Moreover, there was one martial art that surprised Lu Changsheng; it was actually a Divine Power Realm martial art!
