Chapter 752: Chapter 7: Thirty-Six Transformations, Avoiding Disaster and Calamity

"Hoo!"

He had no idea how much impact his little test was having on the outside world.

Right now, as he was communicating with the Gouchen Celestial Palace, trying to complete the Gouchen "Star Power Pouring into the Crown", he was already fully immersed in the marvel of star power.

As for that faint scream just now?

Gouchen simply took it as a side effect of "Star Power Pouring into the Crown" and didn’t care in the slightest.

Star power, or to be more precise...

The star power of the[Gouchen Celestial Palace]was synthesized from Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, forged by hundreds of Gods going all out.

So this star power was naturally different from other star powers, filled with a sort of... jumbled feel?

Yes. It was clearly his first time coming into contact with star power, yet Gouchen, blessed with excellent talent, had already noticed how mixed this star power was.

The mixture of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the participation of hundreds of Gods...

This caused Gouchen star power to be completely incomparable to other star powers in terms of purity.

After all, other star powers were nurtured by stars and each possessed the attribute corresponding to its own star.

Be it slaughter, healing, conquest, calamity, or blessings...

These unique attributes were the hallmark of each corresponding star, and were also the very foundation upon which every path of the[Star God’s Dao]could touch the Great Dao.

—I seem to... be able to purify this star power?

Such a thought flashed inadvertently through his mind, and the Celestial Eye at Gouchen’s brow quietly opened.

As a tester, Gouchen naturally knew he had the authority, as well as the duty and obligation, to do this.

Otherwise, letting this kind of mixed star power come into contact with other Mountain People would cause harm utterly beyond imagination.

Whether from the perspective of data collection, or simply because he felt it was within his power, Gouchen’s body began to change of its own accord.

This was precisely the[36 Transformations]derived from the[Thousand Transformations Divine Power].

The[36 Transformations]might not allow his body to change at will like the[Thousand Transformations Divine Power]did.

But as a simplified version of the[Thousand Transformations Divine Power], the[36 Transformations]had a natural advantage in avoiding calamities and disasters.

"Gouchen?"

Sensing Gouchen’s changes with sharp acuity, Lady Historian opened her Celestial Eye at once.

On the surface, Gouchen still maintained a human shape.

However, with the activation of the[36 Transformations], earth‑shaking changes had already taken place inside him.

From his Five Viscera and six internal organs to his meridians and acupoints, down to every single cell...

In order to adapt to that jumbled star power, these cells were evolving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If it were on the original timeline, even if Gouchen cultivated the[Thousand Transformations Divine Power], there was absolutely no way he could perform such subtle and precise operations on his own flesh.

Because even the[36 Transformations], which focused on dodging disaster...

Its transformations were still influenced by the cultivator’s subjective will, and couldn’t possibly achieve this kind of passive adaptation.

However, ever since Emperor Hao attained the Dao of Taiyi, the Taiyang that shone over the Three Realms had granted all living beings an utterly transcendent evolutionary speed.

That miracle of compressing an evolutionary process of hundreds of millions of years into an individual allowed Gouchen, who cultivated the[36 Transformations], to gain the ability to actively influence and adapt to evolution.

He didn’t need any subjective will at all; the cells themselves would adapt to and filter that jumbled star power.

In fact, in this current era, even if one didn’t cultivate the[36 Transformations]...

As long as they lived long enough, this sort of evolutionary phenomenon would also appear at the individual level.

Humans who lived in groups all year round might not notice it very clearly, but those Spirit Monsters and beasts living in the wilds were a completely different story.

Back when Gouchen went to Yuyuan to conduct an ecological survey, he discovered that many beasts were slowly evolving into human form.

Clearly, they had all been pure beasts at birth.

Yet in the course of their growth, these beasts became more and more humanlike.

This was even more evident in individuals who had gained intelligence.

Their cognition and inclinations were influencing the evolution of their bodies in a profound and lasting way.

This continuous evolution was somewhat similar to Xuansi Gu’s[Transformation Technique].

But it was even more passive, and had no threshold whatsoever.

It was at that time that Gouchen perfected the[36 Transformations], thereby gaining the ability to actively influence this evolutionary process.

"Gouchen! What are you doing again!"

As more and more star power poured into his body, a ferocious Evil God silhouette faintly emerged behind Gouchen.

The Evil God had the upper body of a feral, eyeless Evil God, and the lower body of raging thunderclouds.

Unfortunately, no matter how this Evil God raged, the power from the"Divine Control Technique"always bound it within Gouchen’s body.

So he could only watch helplessly as his own power was consumed bit by bit, becoming the foundation for the evolution of Gouchen’s flesh.

"Fenglong, quiet down for me!"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Gouchen, shrouded in starlight, bellowed harshly.

Fenglong was the name of this Evil God, the Thunder God who once wreaked havoc in the mountains before being subdued by Gouchen.

As an extremely rare God who simultaneously possessed the dual Divine Format of Thunder God and Cloud God—Fenglong could be said to have grown up alongside Gouchen.

He actually admired this Three-Eyed Race youth who had imprisoned him since childhood.

But he couldn’t stand how Gouchen loved to mess around all the time, and how most of the time, he himself ended up as the "price" of that messing around.

It was only natural that Fenglong would appear this panicked and helpless.

And facts proved that Fenglong’s guess was spot‑on.

As Gouchen’s body gradually adapted to that jumbled star power and refined it bit by bit...

Faint arcs of lightning began to appear on his skin, and the starlight swirling around him also started exhibiting a tendency to merge with the thunder.

No longer merely adapting to and filtering the star power.

Instead, he was using his mastery of Thunder Skill to exert a reverse influence on this purified star power.

Thus, a type of star power that combined both lightning and starlight was born.

"You lunatic!"

Whether it was shock or disbelief, Fenglong also felt the birth of this power.

Tempering his body with both lightning and star power at the same time caused Gouchen’s physical toughness to skyrocket at an almost unbelievable speed.

In just a few breaths, Gouchen’s bodily strength was already about to touch the threshold of the "Divine Gate Celestial Pass".

But unlike an ordinary Undying Body, Gouchen’s flesh leaned more toward a body of Thousand Transformations.

Correspondingly, the Primordial Qi reserves within Gouchen also surged to a terrifying degree.

One had to know, Mountain People were already the elites among humans, their internal Primordial Qi reserves more than a hundred times that of ordinary humans.

And Gouchen, who had practiced Thunder Skill since childhood and completed the[36 Transformations], was more than ten times stronger than ordinary Mountain People.

On top of that, after yet another rise, Gouchen’s attainment in the path of Primordial Qi had in fact already surpassed that of a Celestial God nurtured by Heaven and Earth.
