Chapter 1363: New Era Humans, I Want to Become the Martial Ancestor

Xu Zhi quickly asked, "Dao Brother, what are your thoughts?"

After all, the Martial God Palace he had established, with Sheila and Muyu Ling, boasted outstanding martial arts aptitude, but it absolutely couldn't compare to the first tier of monstrous talents from ancient times to the present.

"Terrifying."

"Extremely terrifying."

Kuang Tu gazed into the distance, his expression far from calm. "They are already at the Ninth Tier. Unfortunately, their aura is contained, making it impossible to discern clearly from such a great distance. I wonder what kind of combat power a Ninth Tier entity on this new path possesses."

"However, the Soul and Martial paths are balanced and harmonious, vast and profound. They cultivate the fundamental self. Their Ninth Tier, with a single force, can break myriad laws; they definitely won't be weak..."

"At the same time, their auras are complete, so the Ninth Tier should be their current ultimate limit."

"The ultimate limit?"

"Yes," Kuang Tu said, "the cosmic rules are not yet complete; there are still many deficiencies and loopholes. The new path to the Tenth Tier hasn't even opened, let alone the Eleventh Tier."

Xu Zhi's thoughts churned.

As expected, professional experts are formidable.

Before, he was an outsider and didn't understand at all, but now he did.

No wonder those Chaos beings had said earlier that they were born at the wrong time, because their era hadn't fully arrived yet, and the Ninth Tier was currently the limit.

"However, even at the Ninth Tier, they are not to be trifled with by ordinary Tenth Tier Saints."

Kuang Tu lowered his gaze. "Beyond the Chaos Heavens, Saints lack the support of a Dao field, and their mastery of rules is inherently thin... But the energy level of those entities is too immense, spanning countless light-years, like the difference in size between a planet and a speck of dust. They are very powerful."

Xu Zhi mused, "These beings before us are the ones we are secretly observing... And we are also simultaneously studying their system to emulate it."

Soon, Xu Zhi led him to the new sandbox, where he saw the ordinary beings who had had their bloodlines severed.

Kuang Tu observed them, his expression calm. "Indeed, it's connected to our Longevity Dao Palace. Only we have the means to sever the bloodlines of beings... And you possess some peculiar bloodline methods that prevent their resurgence."

"Dao Brother, you can take full charge of this development. How do you think it should proceed?" Emperor Messiah chuckled softly.

Kuang Tu glanced at Xu Zhi, scoffing, "Aren't you afraid I'll seize power?"

After all, if development proceeded this way, with him fully in charge, seizing power would be very easy.

He held the core technology, having developed this entire system himself, so turning the tables would be effortless.

"What if you do seize power? Each profession has its specialty. Martial arts and soul arts are not my forte... but you, esteemed sir, excel at them. If we succeed in overturning their era, I would hand it over without a single complaint," Messiah replied.

Kuang Tu remained silent.

If that were truly the case, then this person was indeed noble and upright.

He thought for a moment and said, "Regardless of the physical size disparity—we'll consider that later—our priority is to enable entry into that cultivation threshold and complete the Dao foundation. Otherwise, everything will be illusory! And how to complete the Dao foundation requires extensive study!"

"However, the 'End of Dharma' environment you've created is quite suitable. Cultivating martial and soul arts inherently involves cultivating the primordial body. Perhaps there's a method to cultivate and complete martial arts, using it to nurture and complete a life martial art, thereby mending the Dao foundation... But this would be no less difficult than establishing an entirely new fundamental martial arts method." Kuang Tu elaborated on the difficulty.

"Then this..." Messiah feigned a moment of hesitation.

"Still, it's worth a try. After all, you may not know, esteemed sir, but the general principles of the ancient martial and soul arts were all refined by me. Now, to establish another cultivation method without bloodlines, I do have experience," Kuang Tu said enthusiastically. After all, it was finally his turn to open up a new era.

Those Saints had been smug before.

They had attained enlightenment through black holes, through rivers; even Rong Cheng had created a new flying myriad heavens, and Zhiji had established a netherworld reincarnation...

Only he was left, with nothing to do!

But now, it was finally his turn to leverage his strengths and forge his own transcendent era. If it succeeded, he would be akin to the Dao Ancestor of "new humanity." How could he not be excited?

Moreover, according to current intelligence, he was the one with the greatest advantage, with the best chance to reach the pinnacle!

"How long do you think it will take?" Xu Zhi looked at him. "Those Chaos beings are too fast... Our progress has already fallen too far behind."

"Hehehe, no need to worry."

Kuang Tu burst into laughter, saying, "I've observed them, and it's undeniable that the average quality of each clan member is exceptionally high, capable of forging an era... But compared to someone at my level, they still fall short. After all, they currently only have a thousand or so clan members; it's natural that no monstrous talents have emerged. As for me, I can devise a concise, initial method in just a hundred years."

Xu Zhi: "..."

A hundred years to complete the missing piece, turning bloodline humans into complete, bloodline-less humans?

He was somewhat astonished.

What kind of monsters were these? They made it seem like even eating and drinking wasn't as simple as what they were doing!

"No one understands martial arts and soul arts better than I do," Kuang Tu said with a laugh. "I can tell at a glance if something can be done, and I already have an idea for this one just by looking at it. By combining it with other heaven-defying regenerative bloodlines and a martial arts cultivation method, a dual approach will achieve it."

"Others simply couldn't achieve this. You came to the right person; I have all the necessary tools... I am the greatest repository of martial arts techniques from ancient to modern times, and I possess a vast collection of bloodlines."

He said he carried a gene bank with him.

He had over a hundred heaven-defying bloodlines, all related to martial arts and life-body cultivation from throughout the cosmos, past and present.

With these, he could combine them to create a powerful regeneration method. Coupled with bloodline generation, it was theoretically possible, and if theoretically possible, he could quickly make it a reality.

After all, his martial heart stood at the pinnacle of human history.

Xu Zhi felt dizzy from listening, completely unable to grasp it, feeling that this was simply monstrous.

But how could he not be a monster?

Even the weakest among them, Zhiji, could historically slay Zerg Overlords whenever she went out.

Let alone this grand master?

He was likely among the strongest in terms of pure combat power, a fanatic specializing in killing techniques.

"In a hundred years, I'll develop the initial method, then directly release it to these bloodline beings, allowing them to deduce and refine it over vast eras," Kuang Tu said, brimming with excitement. "After all, as you know, our individual perspectives are limited. It's when all beings deduce and update the cultivation methods themselves that they become truly perfect."

"Our speed might be slow initially, but we will quickly catch up to those sky-high figures."

Kuang Tu was full of confidence. "Because they are stuck at the Ninth Tier, unable to advance further, they will only be caught up by us... Since they are currently stuck at the Ninth Tier, they will surely be researching martial arts techniques and combat methods... By the time we catch up, their research will be mature, and we can simply copy it. We'll be shoulder to shoulder in an instant!"

Xu Zhi: "..."

He let out a breath. Good heavens, he truly was a Longevity Saint.

"Amazing," Messiah said, completely convinced. Feeling that this was a truly powerful ally, he added admiringly, "You, esteemed sir, are truly a world-shaking genius! Heaven must have created you specifically to sneak you into this future era, to sever the bloodlines for our human race and find a path to survival!"

"Precisely," Messiah said.

Xu Zhi, however, secretly gasped.

Indeed, only magic can defeat magic!

Only unreasonable monsters can defeat monsters.

As soon as this grand master arrived, he immediately began to pursue the lost progress, even starting to strategize for those Chaos beings—something previously unimaginable.
