"Level 20?!"
The Grand Elder's shocked voice echoed in the room, momentarily stunning the other two.
"Grand Elder, what do you mean by level 20?"
Of the four people present, two were Titled Douluo, one a Spirit Saint, and one had just awakened his Spirit. Where would a level 20 come from?
The Grand Elder, however, did not answer Mu Xi's question. He grabbed Chen Yi's wrist, and a pure spirit power immediately flowed into Chen Yi's body.
"How is this possible?! Yi'er's Physical Body is now comparable to a top-tier Spirit Elder, and the strength of his meridians far surpasses ordinary people; most importantly, his spirit power has actually reached level 20, but when he broke through, I clearly sensed Innate level 10 full spirit power."
The Grand Elder's words were full of disbelief. Chen Yi still hadn't absorbed a spirit ring, but without absorbing a spirit ring, one cannot Breakthrough the level 10 limit. This is common knowledge that even ordinary people know!
Chu Shanhe was equally shocked after checking. After all, Innate spirit power level 20 was simply too astonishing and unheard of on the entire Douluo Continent. This situation had completely subverted their understanding.
Watching the two disbelieving bigwigs, Mu Xi on the side was utterly bewildered.
What?! Level 20? The Sect Master and Grand Elder mean that my son's Innate spirit power is level 20!
How is that possible! In all the recorded history of the Douluo Continent, no one has ever heard of anyone whose Innate spirit power exceeded level 10!
The next moment, Mu Xi was suddenly startled. Could this situation cause any problems for his body?!
"Sect Master, Grand Elder, will Yi'er be alright?"
The Grand Elder shook his head after hearing this: "Yi'er is now better than ever. Not only do his Physical Body and mental force far exceed those of his peers, but his Foundation is also incredibly solid. It can be said that his condition is even better than those top-tier Spirit Ancestors who have been taking medicinal baths since childhood!"
Mu Xi became more confused the more she listened. So how did this extra ten levels of spirit power come about? One must know that the Seraphim, as recorded in the "Legend of the Angel God" left by Spirit Hall, also had Innate spirit power level 10 in his youth!
As the three racked their brains for a reason, Chen Yi spoke directly:
"I think I know why."
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, the three were stunned. How could Chen Yi know something that a group of "old foxes" who had accumulated more life experience than Chen Yi could not figure out?
"My Innate spirit power should only be level 10; the extra ten levels of spirit power should be God-bestowed spirit power."
Seeing the suspicion in their eyes, Chen Yi didn't intend to be mysterious. After all, in his plans, whether it was immortal-grade medicinal herbs or the Spirit core Cultivation method, these were not things a child who had never left the Sect could produce.
Therefore, the identity of the God of Thunder's Legacy holder had to be revealed, otherwise, no matter how eloquently Chen Yi spoke, they would only dismiss it as the ramblings of a child who had been unconscious for many days.
As for why he wasn't worried about someone killing him for his treasures, it was because the Body Sect was too pure. In their hearts, there was only one goal: to make the Body Sect a Spirit Master Holy Land like Spirit Hall!
Chen Yi revealing his identity as a God Legacy holder was a great boon for the Body Sect. Once Chen Yi became a God in the future, the Body Sect reaching the heights of Spirit Hall would no longer be a dream.
"What?! God-bestowed spirit power?! God!"
"God-bestowed? Yi'er, is it the God that this old man understands?"
"Yi'er, you said God. Are there really Gods in this World? Immortal and eternal Gods?!"
God-bestowed spirit power, even without much explanation from Chen Yi, the two could understand what it meant, but it was precisely because of this that they were horrified.
Why could Spirit Hall reach its current heights?
It was because a God appeared ten thousand years ago.
The Seraphim Spirit it left behind suppressed all Spirits in the World, producing peerless individuals generation after generation. The Douluo Continent dared not disobey.
God, the legendary level 100 God, a dream that countless powerhouses had yearned for but could not reach for ten thousand years.
Many powerhouses went mad for it, only to end in sorrow. By now, many people believed that God was nothing more than a rumor, a fantasy.
Now, Chen Yi said that he possessed God-bestowed level 10 spirit power. What did this mean? It meant that Chen Yi was very likely to have received the favor of a God, and in the future, he might even become a new God!
If a God appeared in the Body Sect, it would completely sweep across the continent, with no more rivals!
Looking at the three who were utterly terrified, Chen Yi nodded heavily and said in a deep voice:
"The reason this Disciple has been unconscious these past few days is precisely because he obtained the Legacy of a God, named the God of Thunder..."
Chen Yi told the three what happened in his Sea of Consciousness after he fell into the light cocoon, of course, omitting the matters of his previous life.
When they heard that Chen Yi had gained the favor of the God of Thunder in his Sea of Consciousness, who not only took Chen Yi as his Disciple but also intended to pass on his God Position to him, the three were all speechless, clearly still not having recovered from the groundbreaking news.
After a long while, Chu Shanhe finally spoke hoarsely: "So, as long as you Breakthrough to Spirit Saint, you can undergo the God Position assessment."
"And, as long as you succeed, you can inherit the God Position of the God of Thunder, no, the God King of Thunder and Lightning!" The Grand Elder's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he quickly interjected.
"That's right."
"Hahahaha! Good, good, good!"
Hearing Chen Yi's affirmative reply again, the two old men laughed excitedly. How many years had it been since they had laughed so heartily?
This was the relief of a burden lifted, the ecstasy of looking forward to the future, and the excitement of a group of prisoners who had walked alone in the darkness for a long time seeing the dawn.
Eight hundred years ago, since the first Sect Master founded the Body Sect, generations of Disciples had pressed forward for the rise of the Body Martial Soul.
No matter how dark or arduous the road ahead, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, they would rush forward regardless of everything, even if it meant sacrificing everything, without a single complaint.
But it had been too long, so long that they couldn't see any hope.
The suffocating success rate of the second Awakening and those resolute young faces tormented their hearts, making them wonder whether they should pursue that unseen sliver of hope or consider those young children.
Three years ago, the whale glue proposed by Chen Yi did indeed greatly increase the success rate of the Body Martial Soul's second Awakening, but this was achieved by throwing resources at it, and the whale glue would eventually run out.
This was also why Chu Shanhe was willing to risk his life to obtain the Breaking Clan's alchemy techniques, even though he knew Qian Daoliu might have been nearby at the time, and even though he knew he was just a slightly larger ant in front of Qian Daoliu. But he still went, just to prepare a fallback for the younger generation.
The laughter gradually faded, and Chu Shanhe raised his hand to wipe away the moisture that had unconsciously welled up in the corners of his eyes, looking at Chen Yi with fervent expectation:
"Yi'er, with the God of Thunder's Legacy, the Body Sect's eight-hundred-year-old wish is finally going to be realized in your generation!"
"From today onwards, your safety will be the Sect's top priority. The God Position assessment will undoubtedly be extremely perilous, and the Sect will do its utmost to pave the way for you." The Grand Elder also reined in his excitement, his tone becoming solemn.
Looking at the sincere expressions of the Sect Master and the Grand Elder, warmth surged in Chen Yi's heart. This was the Body Sect, this was his home in this life!
