Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 423 - 279: One Acre Golden Light
Within the Hero King Realm.
Chen Ku stood outside the grand array, gazing at the ten Fourth Realm demon corpses slain by the Earth Carrying Formation, and even in death, they gathered martial destiny.
He aimed the Martial Arts Gold Order at the ten dead demon corpses.
[Scholar Chen Ku, account credited with five thousand martial destiny]
Chen Ku listened to the sound of martial destiny being credited from the Martial Arts Gold Order, feeling that there was nothing more pleasing in the world than this sound.
His figure flashed, reappearing in the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth.
He watched as the ten Fourth Realm demons, released again from the Evil Summoning Banner, were assimilated by the martial destiny of the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth, and then absorbed into the Hero King Realm, to be extinguished by the Eight Gates Shocking Array...
The demons extinguished by the Eight Gates Shocking Array, although bypassing the process of Chong Sha upon him, would undoubtedly generate martial destiny.
This sparked a curiosity in Chen Ku to explore the nature of "martial destiny."
Muttering to himself:
"My master once told me some generalized concepts about destiny.
The so-called destiny can be explained like this: Heaven and Earth nurture life, no matter how large or small, old or young, they all possess luck, and many strands of luck gathered together form destiny.
Among the vast sea of life, the like-mindedness and camaraderie of waves of people shape different destinies.
There exists martial destiny, cultural destiny, sword dao destiny, and divine destiny, immortal tao destiny, etc.
According to the explanation within Martial Arts Heaven and Earth, martial destiny is the destiny of the Martial Path. From the day the Martial Ancestor established the martial arts system in ancient times, martial destiny began to take form.
Later, for tens of thousands of years, countless predecessors of the Martial Path contributed continuously, gradually expanding the martial arts destiny.
With the expansion of martial arts destiny, the ancestors from the lineage of martial cultivation naturally formed a considerable force, welcoming all the predecessors who contributed to the martial arts system into the "Ancestor Hall" to be honored as ancestors, from Martial Ancestor, the Ten Great Martial Saints, to the Seventy-two Generals, and such sages of the martial arts lineage.
Later, as martial cultivation became one of the great "pillar systems" in Heaven and Earth, that initial "Ancestor Hall" evolved into the "Martial Temple," revered by all Martial Practitioners of the world, standing alongside "Confucian Temple," "Divine Temple," and other systems as the orthodox.
It was because of this word "orthodox," that emperors of each dynasty sought to host an "orthodox system" in their dynasty as their lifelong wish."
"The Daji Dynasty, founded on martial strength, eradicated external legal systems, respecting martial arts and abolishing legalism domestically, thereby gaining the recognition of the Martial Temple, allowing the Daji Dynasty to occupy over seventy percent of the world’s martial arts destiny."
Chen Ku mused to himself:
"According to my understanding, martial arts destiny is like a ’public heritage’ left from ancient times, legally belonging to all martial arts practitioners as ’common property,’ because the formation of martial arts destiny is the result of the collective luck of all martial artists, past and present, creating a river of destiny.
The Martial Temple is akin to the ’custodial department’ managing this public heritage of all martial cultivators.
The Daji Dynasty recognized by the Martial Temple effectively holds rights to part of this public heritage but cannot fully control all of it.
In other words, the river of martial destiny never has a true owner; its birth is due to the fusion of the luck of martial practitioners, past and present.
All Martial Practitioners are the true owners of martial arts destiny.
To fully embody the martial arts destiny of past and present upon a person, unless this person is recognized by all martial practitioners... like the Martial Ancestor?"
Chen Ku let his thoughts wander.
Moments later,
He returned to pondering the essence of martial destiny.
"Although within the martial destiny of Qiu Dragon Mansion, martial destiny merely serves as ’money’ for exchanging divine weapons and pills, considering the fact that Martial Arts Heaven and Earth was entirely developed from ’martial arts destiny,’ the role of martial destiny is completely unimaginable."
An idea flashed in his mind:
"Capable of evolving an entire world from martial destiny, how could it be confined to the role of silver coin? This indirectly answers why any creature within Martial Arts Heaven and Earth is imbued with corresponding martial destiny – because this world itself evolved from martial destiny."
The gentle breeze blew.
Chen Ku moved forward, speculating on the essence of martial destiny and the truths of Martial Arts Heaven and Earth.
Unbeknownst to him,
He continued releasing demons from the Evil Summoning Banner into Martial Arts Heaven and Earth to be artificially assimilated into martial destiny, then absorbed into the Hero King Realm to be extinguished, thereby seizing martial destiny in the process.
After half an hour, he had accumulated thirty thousand destiny on the ledger.
Chen Ku had generally figured out the value of martial destiny each demon from the First to Sixth Realm could be absorbed for within Martial Arts Heaven and Earth.
Ten points for First Realm demons, fifty points for Second Realm demons, three hundred points for Third Realm demons, five hundred points for Fourth Realm demons, eight hundred points for Fifth Realm demons, one thousand points for Sixth Realm demons.
Calculated based on this value.
This time he brought in forty Sixth Realm demons, one hundred Fifth Realm demons, three hundred Fourth Realm demons, five hundred Third Realm demons, eight hundred Second Realm demons, one thousand First Realm demons. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Every demon within the Evil Summoning Banner was assimilated into martial destiny demons, and after slaughtering them, he could obtain approximately 470,000 martial destiny.
470,000 martial destiny!
