Chapter 964 Arhat Overlord Golden Body
There were no shortcuts to tempering the body, and it was also impossible to use an extremely special S-rank cultivation method like the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
This was a fact that Chu Nan immediately understood after exchanging for the Arhat Overlord Golden Body from the martial arts database.
The Arhat Overlord Golden Body was divided into four levels. The first level was the most basic tempering of the body. Just like those martial artists who had just entered the Novice Realm and were at the Novice Realm and the Overlord Body Realm, they slowly increased the strength of their muscles and tempered their bodies through a cultivation method.
However, what was different from ordinary Novice and Overlord Body Martial Artists was that the Arhat Overlord Golden Body was an S-rank cultivation method. Just the effect of this first level had already suppressed at least 99% of cultivation methods.
Compared to when Chu Nan first cultivated it, he could only rely on the most popular F-rank cultivation method—the basic martial technique combined with the Nine Revolutions Technique to refine his body. The first level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body was undoubtedly much stronger.
This cultivation method not only allowed a martial artist to simply increase the strength of their body through muscle training, but in the process of cultivating the first level, it would put an extremely strict requirement on every inch of muscles in their body and give very detailed guidance.
Chu Nan originally thought that the strength of his body was already extremely shocking and the control of his body was also extremely powerful. However, after cultivating the Arhat Overlord Golden Body, he understood that an S-rank cultivation method was an S-rank cultivation method after all. Cultivating this cultivation method actually allowed the control of his body to clearly increase.
Take the simplest example of using the Hong Clan\'s Long Fist.
Previously, when Chu Nan used the Hong Clan\'s Long Fist, although he could calculate the best punching posture through his powerful data ability, he could even naturally mobilize his Internal Breath and increase the power of the fist technique.
This made Chu Nan feel that his understanding of the Hong Clan\'s Long Fist had already reached the limit. The ultimate power of this fist technique was limited by the essence of its D-rank martial technique.
However, after cultivating the first level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body, it was as if Chu Nan had opened up a new world. He discovered that he could even mobilize every inch of his muscles alone and be more precise.
This way, coupled with his powerful data ability, he discovered that if he used the Hong Clan\'s Long Fist, not to mention Internal Breath and spatial energy, just using his body could increase the strength displayed on his fist by 13-18%.
For example, the first move of the first stance of the Hong Clan\'s Long Fist—Sitting Horse Rush Fist. Before he cultivated the Arhat Overlord Golden Body, the highest strength he could unleash with a punch was only 1.872776 tons. After cultivating the first level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body, the strength of his fist clearly continuously increased. His last attempt had even reached an astonishing 2.087611 tons! He had broken through two tons in one go!
Apart from that, Chu Nan could clearly sense that in the past three months, he had been persistent in cultivating the Arhat Overlord Golden Body and the strength of his body had gradually increased.
Although this was naturally impossible to compare to the shocking increase in strength when he used his high-frequency vibration Internal Breath, Flame of Life, and countless times to reconstruct his body in the alternate space, there was still room for improvement when his body had already reached his current strength. Just this point was enough to surprise him. He deeply felt that exchanging for the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method was a wise choice. No wonder Mu Yutong had told him that this cultivation method was the most suitable for him.
If Chu Nan had really been as Mu Yutong had said and it was almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven\'s Gate because of his foundation, then cultivating the Arhat Overlord Golden Body had hope of improving the refinement of his body. Perhaps he could finally reach the physical strength needed to break through the Cosmic Heaven\'s Gate and successfully break through.
From this point, although Mu Yutong had publicly announced Chu Nan\'s bleak future and brought him a huge blow and a lot of trouble, he still had some kindness towards him after telling him about the existence of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
Of course, the current Chu Nan definitely did not need to pay special attention to the effect of the first level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
Compared to the simplest increase in muscle strength, Chu Nan was more concerned about the increase brought about by the second to fourth levels of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
The second and third levels of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body were actually also tempering the body, but the difference from the first level was that from the second level, martial artists were required to add control of their Internal Breath. Coupled with the previous training of the muscles, they were to temper the deeper parts of the body, such as the meridians, bones, internal organs, and so on…
The requirements of the third level went further and added the control requirement of spatial energy.
Chu Nan had yet to cultivate to the third level, but from the introduction of the cultivation method, the third level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body was actually already targeted at martial artists above the Void Break Realm. It required martial artists to strengthen the spatial energy contained in their bodies when cultivating and complement their Internal Breath to refine their bodies.
In fact, Chu Nan was not unfamiliar with this.
After being slapped into the stargate by Grek, in order to survive in the alternate space, Chu Nan was forced to reconstruct his body. In fact, he had already used the Goddess\' Song cultivation method to use spatial energy to refine his body.
However, under that dangerous situation, Chu Nan naturally did not have the energy to pay attention to those details.
Now that the Arhat Overlord Golden Body had appeared, it could allow him to adjust it again and further increase the strength of his body.
However, if it was only to temper the body, it was definitely impossible for the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method to be evaluated as the highest S-rank cultivation method.
The essence of this cultivation method was the fourth level. The first three levels were actually only to lay the foundation for the fourth level.
According to the introduction of the cultivation method, after cultivating the fourth level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method, martial artists who cultivated this cultivation method could freely control the spatial energy hidden in their bodies and cooperate with the spatial energy of the outside world to set up a powerful energy shield inside and outside their bodies. Not only did it increase the strength of their bodies by several times or even dozens of times compared to their normal state, but they could also rely on the energy shield to easily block any attacks from the outside world and ensure that their bodies were as tough as a fortress.
After Chu Nan read the introduction of every level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method, he immediately summarized that in fact, the Arhat Overlord Golden Body could be completely divided into two parts. The first three levels were equivalent to Internal Breath cultivation methods like the Nine Revolutions Technique, and the fourth level was equivalent to Internal Breath usage cultivation methods like the Flame of Life.
These two parts were closely related but could be completely separated.
If he could cultivate the first three levels of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body to a sufficiently profound level, the power and effect would naturally be stronger when using the fourth-level cultivation method.
However, if his grasp of spatial energy was good enough and his physical body was strong enough, it was not impossible to directly learn to master the fourth level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
Chu Nan happened to be a martial artist with these conditions.
It could even be said that Chu Nan was definitely the martial artist with the greatest qualifications to directly learn the fourth level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method.
The first three cultivation methods could not be completed quickly, but the fourth level was not necessarily the case for Chu Nan.
Therefore, after exchanging for the Arhat Overlord Golden from the martial arts database, not only did Chu Nan persist in cultivating the first three levels of the Arhat Overlord Golden every day, he could barely begin to cultivate the second level. At the same time, he continuously cultivated and grasped the fourth level.
Although the lack of the foundation of the first three levels of the cultivation method indeed made Chu Nan feel a little troublesome, with his already powerful body, powerful Internal Breath, and powerful control of spatial energy, most importantly, with his extremely exquisite data ability, he had even basically grasped the fourth level of the cultivation method.
After closing his eyes, Chu Nan controlled his Internal Breath to circulate in the meridians in his body according to the second level of the Arhat Overlord Golden Body cultivation method as he divided a portion of his mind to interact with the spatial energy in his dantian.
While sensing that his Internal Breath was gradually strengthening his meridians according to the special guidance of this cultivation method, the Internal Breath in the small universe in Chu Nan\'s dantian transformed into strands of spatial energy through the star cloud and gradually condensed into a faint figure.
This figure assumed a cross-legged meditative posture in the void of the small universe in his dantian. The top of his head was as smooth as a mirror, and his entire body emitted a faint light condensed from spatial energy. It was actually the image of a golden Arhat.
