“No wonder many people said that if one wanted to become the strongest martial artist, they could not walk the path of the predecessors.”
Feeling the change in his body, Chu Nan could not help but sigh.
After confirming the results of this experiment, Chu Nan felt relieved and started to cultivate again.
The result of this cultivation session was obvious. The speed at which Chu Nan’s Internal Breath increased was more than three times faster than before.
Not long after, Chu Nan felt that the Internal Breath in his dantian had become extremely abundant. It even filled every meridian that flowed through it to an abnormally full state, causing him to feel a faint swelling pain.
Chu Nan knew very well that the modified second level of the Nine Revolutions Technique had already reached the peak. As long as he could make a breakthrough, he would be able to start cultivating the third level.
After thinking for a while, Chu Nan was not in a hurry to start cultivating the third level of the cultivation method. Instead, he calmed his mind and started to circulate the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique that he had not used since he successfully cultivated the second level seven years ago.
However, it was different from before. This time, when Chu Nan circulated the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, he no longer circulated it along the circulated Nine Revolutions Technique. Instead, he started to experiment with the meridians.
With the experience of modifying the second level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, although Chu Nan still spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, he completed the entire modification process much faster than before.
When Chu Nan circulated the modified first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, he immediately discovered that many of the meridians in his body that he could not open in the past seemed to have automatically loosened as his Internal Breath flowed.
Chu Nan immediately understood why his Nine Revolutions Technique was unable to break through. It turned out that there was a problem from the beginning.
As the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique continued to circulate, Chu Nan clearly felt that while the meridians in his entire body were expanded further, wisps of internal breath passed through the meridians to moisturize the cells near the meridians, causing every cell to become even tougher.
The process of using Internal Breath to strengthen the body was the so-called Overlord Body.
Overlord Body Realm Martial Artists all underwent this process.
Before this, although Chu Nan’s Internal Breath was not weak, he had always been unable to use it to strengthen his cells and body. Therefore, he could only barely reach the initial-stage Overlord Body realm.
Now that he had improved the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, Chu Nan could truly use his Internal Breath to strengthen his body. In other words, he had finally become a true Overlord Body Martial Artist.
Only then did Chu Nan truly understand the power of the Nine Revolutions Technique.
When the Nine Revolutions Cultivation Technique was circulated, because every trace of Internal Breath would flow in the dantian and meridians for nine cycles before returning to the dantian, it would last longer than most Internal Breath cultivation methods, causing the Internal Breath to flow in the meridians. Naturally, it would also last longer to strengthen the body more.
After just a single cycle, Chu Nan could clearly feel that his physical strength had increased substantially.
According to the data obtained in Chu Nan’s mind, every time he circulated the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, the strength of his muscles would increase by approximately 0.3%.
Although this number looked very small and as the Nine Revolutions Technique circulated, the number became smaller and smaller, the flow of Internal Breath was extremely fast. It only took less than five seconds to circulate the nine revolutions once.
When this number fell infinitely close to zero, Chu Nan stopped.
After using his Internal Breath to investigate, Chu Nan discovered that circulating the first level of the Nine Revolutions Technique had practically zero effect on him.
Logically speaking, it meant that he should start cultivating the second level of the Nine Revolutions Technique.
Of course, since Chu Nan was cultivating from the start, there was naturally no obstruction when breaking through.
With a punch, the fist broke through the air with a muffled sound.
Chu Nan nodded in satisfaction. The strength of his muscles had increased by 37.3478% compared to before. The power contained in this punch had naturally increased greatly.
If he added the terrifying experience he had obtained from countless battles in the virtual space based on the data, then his punch could definitely unleash nearly ten times the strength he had previously!
This was only an advancement he had obtained by modifying the Nine Revolutions Cultivation Technique through data experiments to a cultivation method that was most suitable for him.
After teasing him for a while, Chu Nan closed his eyes again and started to circulate the modified second level of the Nine Revolutions Technique.
The characteristics of the Nine Revolutions Technique was that the next stage of the center of gravity was almost like a staircase. Therefore, when Chu Nan started to circulate the second stage of the Nine Revolutions Technique, he was surprised to discover that the strength of his body had increased even more exaggeratedly than before.
In just over an hour, the strength of Chu Nan’s body had increased by 73.3773% again! His internal breath had also increased by nearly 10%.
Soon, Chu Nan reached the peak of the second level.
Feeling the abundant strength in his body and the overflowing Internal Breath in his dantian, Chu Nan knew that he should begin to break through the third level of the Nine Revolutions Technique.
After recalling the detailed description of the third level, Nine Revolutions Technique, Chu Nan took a deep breath and started the experiment again.
Threads of Internal Breath flowed through his meridians. Sometimes, they were successfully opened, but sometimes, it caused the blood in his body to surge and he even spat out a mouthful of blood.
After close to a thousand experiments, Chu Nan finally confirmed the third level route of the Nine Revolutions Technique that was most suitable for him. Then, he calmed his mind and released the Internal Breath into his dantian.
Countless threads of Internal Breath instantly filled most of the meridians in his body. After circulating through these meridians, they returned to his dantian and flowed out again.
As his Internal Breath circulated every cycle, the originally unblocked meridians in his body were overcome one by one.
The Internal Breath in these meridians gradually thickened from thin threads to fully occupying the meridians in the dantian.
When the last meridian was finally filled with Internal Breath, Chu Nan felt a bang in his head. The Internal Breath in his meridians suddenly seemed to have been connected to his dantian, and countless Internal Breath surged through his meridians like a torrent.
Chu Nan was overjoyed. This situation meant that he had finally reached the stage where his meridians were completely opened and his Internal Breath could instantly reach his entire body!
In other words, he had finally cultivated the third level of the Nine Revolutions Technique!
Feeling the continuous flow of his meridians and dantian, Chu Nan sighed endlessly in his heart.
He did not expect that the third level of the Nine Revolutions Technique that he had not been able to break through for seven years would actually be broken through so easily now.
If not for the help of terrifying data collection, analysis, and processing ability that allowed him to analyze the data when his internal breath flowed through every vein in advance, it would probably be several times more difficult for him to succeed alone.
Now, he had only spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and had successfully broken through. Moreover, because he had tested this third level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, he had confirmed that it was the most suitable for him and the effects were even more outstanding.
Chu Nan even dared to say that other than the senior who invented the Nine Revolutions Technique 400 years ago, no one had obtained a higher cultivation level than him when cultivating it.
In fact… even that senior was inferior to Chu Nan.
This was because it was impossible for that senior to have incomparably precise data as a reference for every meridian and every trace of internal breath in his body.
Looking down at the blood stains on his chest and bed, Chu Nan laughed and casually wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth before jumping up from the bed.
Although he was slightly weak after spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, Chu Nan clearly felt that his physical body and internal breath were much stronger than before.
Whoosh!
Chu Nan punched out, bringing about the force of a chilly wind.
He glanced at Dongfang who was still lying on the bed like a dead pig and a smile flashed across his face.
From today onwards, he was no longer the Chu Nan who could be bullied by others!
