"Change the form—let's do another one!"
If You Don't Show Off at the Beginning, You Lose Half the Game turned elegantly, the familiar opening stance, the familiar motion, the same ordinary punch!
"Bang!"
Another corrupted beast race genius was blown apart!
Don't ask why!
Demon Core Battle Armor plus the Infinity Gauntlet!
Defeating these corrupt beast race geniuses at the Nascent Soul realm is as easy as taking them down with a single punch!
The combined power of two forty-eight demon marks, enhanced by Six Great Completion level Intent, paired with the absolute dominance of the Purgatory True Demon Body!
And on top of that, the ultimate technique taught by Master Guapi the Watermelon Man—a straight punch that perfectly unleashes 100% of one's own power!
While That Old Senju Hashirama and the others fought over turns beating up Gu Aotian, If You Don't Show Off at the Beginning, You Lose Half the Game happily farmed the so-called super-powerful special guards mentioned by Chi Mo—one punch at a time—grinning from ear to ear.
"Brainless one-punch kills, ahh, this is the feeling I want! So damn refreshing!"
If You Don't Show Off at the Beginning, You Lose Half the Game carried two massive speakers on his back blasting Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies, feeling the BGM while mindlessly grinding monsters.
These Nascent Soul–level corrupted beast geniuses were indeed powerful.
Unfortunately, they had lost their sanity.
Against the even stronger If You Don't Show Off at the Beginning, You Lose Half the Game, they were nothing more than living targets.
"Bastard!!!" Chi Mo roared in fury!
These beast race geniuses—he had spent a long time corrupting them one by one. They were supposed to be the most loyal guards he would bring out of the secret realm to sweep across the world!
And in such a short time, a third of them were already dead!
How could he possibly endure this?!
Just as Chi Mo was about to step out and kill If You Don't Show Off at the Beginning, You Lose Half the Game, a figure blocked his path.
"You're not going anywhere," He Yiming said calmly.
There wasn't much time left—only a few hours remained!
They had to eliminate these two Evil God Apostles quickly! Gu Aotian and Chi Mo!
"He Yiming!!! Do you really think you're something? A mere trash from the lower realm dares compare yourself to this genius?" Chi Mo's killing intent surged.
"That stupid woman Mu Xueying—I have no idea what she saw in you! She actually abandoned this genius to be with you. What an idiot!"
"But it doesn't matter! After I kill you and slaughter all your disciples, I'll naturally find that woman and give her a good beating!"
"In the past, perhaps this genius would have feared her somewhat. But now…"
After speaking, Chi Mo's aura suddenly erupted!
The terrifying power of the Nascent Soul Realm surged violently!
Even more frightening—within this blood-red world, hundreds and thousands of blood-colored versions of Chi Mo slowly emerged!
"Now that I have the Evil God's power amplifying me, I've completely excavated my genius potential! Stepping into Nascent Soul is only the beginning!"
"He Yiming, do you know what Divine Transformation is?"
…
Chi Mo burst into laughter.
"Oh? What is Divine Transformation?" He Yiming asked curiously, completely unconcerned about the vast and overwhelming power Chi Mo was displaying.
"From Body Tempering to Heavenly Pill—in our Upper Realm, that is called the Human Realm!"
"Because cultivators in that stage are still fundamentally ordinary humans in body. Only their strength differs. Their essence has not changed much!"
"But starting from the Nascent Soul Realm up to the Great Emperor Realm—it is completely different!"
"During this stage, a cultivator's body undergoes qualitative transformations, gradually becoming a completely different life form from ordinary humans!"
"Nascent Soul! Divine Transformation! Divine Division! Dao Integration! Tribulation Crossing!"
"The pinnacle of Tribulation Crossing—is the Great Emperor!!!"
"Every realm is a rebirth of body and spirit! Every breakthrough brings one step closer to the legendary immortal realm that is undying and indestructible!"
…
Chi Mo laughed loudly, filled with anticipation and excitement.
It was as if every future realm was already waving at him.
"So, what are these five realms like?" He Yiming happened to be lacking in this knowledge, so he quickly asked.
"Trying to stall for time so you can live a little longer? Hahaha! Fine, this genius will grant you your final wish before death!" Chi Mo sneered and began explaining.
"The Nascent Soul Realm is when one perfectly fuses Intent and evolves it into Dao Pattern! At the same time, the Heavenly Pill transforms into a Nascent Soul, forming a new inner world within the body!"
"When the power of Dao Pattern, cultivation, and spiritual sense are perfectly fused—that is the power of the Nascent Soul!"
"But once you reach the Divine Transformation Realm—that is a true qualitative leap!"
"In Divine Transformation, the Nascent Soul is refined into a Divine Spirit! From then on, one transcends the limitations of the physical body—able to leave it and act independently! One can possess others, reincarnate, and transform in countless ways!"
"With a single thought, the Divine Spirit can soar ninety thousand Li into the sky, traversing vast distances to manifest itself, appearing like a god to the ants of the lower realm
"Even more astonishing—at the Divine Transformation Realm, one can split off a portion of their Divine Spirit and grant it as an incarnation to disciples! Each incarnation possesses power that ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators could never hope to match!"
"Furthermore, one can even separate their own Intent and bestow it upon disciples! Even if their talent is insufficient to comprehend Intent themselves, they can still wield Intent and truly step into the Heavenly Pill Realm!"
"As for Divine Division, Dao Integration, and Tribulation Crossing—those realms are like impossible dreams to you. Telling you would be pointless!"
"Alright. You've heard enough explanations. Now—you can die!"
Chi Mo curled his lips into a grin as he finished speaking.
"Mm, that was some useful information. Letting you live a bit longer did have some value," He Yiming nodded.
He hadn't expected to squeeze a bit of worth out of Chi Mo. Not bad.
"Ant! You simply don't understand! I, who possess Great Emperor bloodline, was fundamentally different from you from the moment I was born! I've changed my mind—I'll use the most primitive method! I'll crush you alive with nothing but pure physical strength!!!" Chi Mo growled viciously.
He stomped forward and, using nothing but his physical body, charged brutally at He Yiming!
"Competing in raw physical strength? I like that!" He Yiming smiled and, without hesitation, charged straight at Chi Mo as well!
"BOOM!!!"
In the next instant, Chi Mo slammed violently into He Yiming's body! He Yiming also struck Chi Mo at full force!
"Crack!"
"Puhah!"
The sound of bones shattering rang out, accompanied by someone coughing up blood.
He Yiming stood there calmly, unmoving.
Chi Mo, however, crashed to the ground, completely dumbfounded.
"I've already stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm… I possess a Great Emperor bloodline, have the Evil God's power amplifying me, my body tempered by countless heavenly treasures… I'm no weaker than a Sacred Body… Why…"
"Why can't I overpower a mere Heavenly Pill from the lower realm?"
…
Chi Mo's eyes widened as blood sprayed from his body. He stared at He Yiming in utter disbelief.
From that collision, He Yiming was practically unharmed!
Chi Mo himself had half the bones in his body shattered, meridians torn apart. If not for the Evil God's power sustaining him, that single clash would have crippled him.
What the hell was going on?
At that moment, He Yiming spoke.
"I've fought many opponents."
"But…"
"Someone as brain-dead as you? Honestly, this is the first time I've seen one."
…
He Yiming took a deep breath and sighed leisurely.
Chi Mo: "???"
