Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Qilin Divine Hero Mantra: Hunyuan
Root element: 45
The Book of Immeasurable Merit clearly and directly indicates the changes brought about by the upgrade of the Qilin Divine Hero Mantra.

More specific and subtle changes can only be understood through the Qilin Divine Mantra itself; it is not directly indicated in the Book of Immeasurable Merits.

The Qilin Divine Hero Mantra reached the Primordial Chaos Realm, allowing Gao Wu to bypass the Demon God's restrictions and enter the depths of the Source Sea, advancing to level 20.

This allows him to gain a deep understanding of the universe and the source of its power.

In the long run, the most important thing is that it improves his learning, analytical, and computational abilities.

Gao Wu then examined the meditation methods of each sect, as clearly as reading the lines on his palm.

If he so desires, he can employ meditation techniques from various sects, which are even more refined than those of a level 20 divine general.

The Primordial Chaos Realm Qilin Divine Mantra also enhanced his perception of fortune and misfortune, and improved his ability to control all spirits.

Most importantly, the Qilin Divine Mantra of the Primordial Realm allows his wisdom to reach the Primordial level, which can prevent him from being contaminated by evil and filthy information.

For example, he can learn the wrong knowledge taught by the demon god, but he can still judge the advantages and disadvantages, right and wrong by using divine incantations.

Gao Wu felt this was crucial, as his 45 points of innate talent made learning anything incredibly easy for him.

At the same time, it can also help identify incorrect and harmful information, avoid going astray, and avoid being deceived.

Who knows if there are any problems with the methods taught by the demon god!

Gao Wu has now mastered many meditation techniques and integrated them with his own martial arts, thus forging his own path in this world.

Give him some time to refine his skills, integrate martial arts, spirit, physical body, and star armor, and he will become the number one grandmaster in this world!
Even the most powerful demons are ultimately corrupted by the abyss. The higher the level, the more severe the corruption.

The methods created by the demon god are ultimately limited by themselves.

However, he was able to examine the Source Sea and the Abyss with greater clarity from an outsider's perspective. In this respect, although he was not as advanced as the Demon God, the methods he created were more suitable for humanity than those of the Demon God.

"Brother Gao," Ye Ning called softly from outside the door.

It was already 9:30, and there was only half an hour left until the final, but Gao Wu still hadn't made a move, and Ye Ning couldn't help but get a little anxious.

"Hold on."

After washing up and changing into a Qingcheng blue uniform, Gao Wu leisurely came out of his room.

Ye Ning was pacing anxiously, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gao Wu come out.

She hurriedly said, "Let's hurry, we're going to be late."

With such an important final, Gao Wu was only just getting up, leaving Ye Ning at a loss for words. But she didn't dare say anything either.

Liu Yeqing admired Gao Wu, but Gao Wu seemed unconcerned and relaxed today, even though it was the final.

Whether it's feigned composure or genuine confidence, this demeanor reveals a magnanimous heart and the potential to achieve great things!
The three of them were actually staying at the guesthouse of Luohan Hall, which was only a few kilometers away from the arena. By the time they arrived by car, there were only two minutes left before the final match began.

The staff responsible for inspecting the Star Armor were all waiting, and Gao Wu was late in arriving. They even thought he was going to withdraw from the competition.

Many staff members were somewhat disappointed to see Gao Wu appear.

The head Star Armor Master said to Gao Wu, "It has been inspected three times, and Longyuan is in normal condition. Please sign for it."

Normally, Gao Wu would check it himself to make sure the Star Armor was in good condition before signing it.

This process usually takes about twenty minutes.

It's all because Gao Wu arrived too late. The maintenance staff didn't care about that.

Gao Wu glanced at Long Yuan and replaced the two swords with new ones. There were no problems with the internal situation.

Although this is Dalin Temple's territory, they wouldn't tamper with the Star Armor. They were even quite afraid that something might suddenly happen to the Star Armor.

After all, it is a mechanical metal structure, with both an external energy center and a Star Master's source force field and spiritual magnetic field integrated, making its internal structure extremely complex.

It's normal for Star Armor to have problems.

At 10:00 AM sharp, Gao Wu appeared on the arena, riding the Dragon Abyss. Various boos and whistles erupted from the crowd.

This is the home ground of Dalin Temple, and all the spectators overwhelmingly support Zhang Xuanxiang. Even before the battle begins, hundreds of thousands of spectators are doing their utmost to put pressure on Gao Wu.

With hundreds of thousands of people cheering together, the atmosphere was truly earth-shattering, and the vast arena space was filled with a surging tide of voices echoing back and forth...

The host said, "The atmosphere is very lively. Today's final is between Zhang Xuanxiang from Dalin and Gao Wu from Qingcheng."

"Zhang Xuanxiang's fighting style is fierce and domineering, yet his martial arts are highly versatile. Their encounter in the finals will surely present us with a spectacular battle..."

As a host, he was quite principled and did not show any obvious bias.

The female host was less reserved, saying, "I still favor Zhang Xuanxiang. The Vajra King meditation method paired with the Vajra King is a perfect match. Zhang Xuanxiang has been practicing in Dalin since childhood, and his meditation method and physical skills are both extremely advanced."

"His innately fierce and courageous character is truly like that of Vajra King descended to earth!"
"Looking at Gao Wu, he's ultimately a latecomer to the art. Although he's an unparalleled prodigy, his path is impure, and he's destined to lose this battle..."

The female host knew that these words would offend more than 70% of the audience.

The Alliance of Star Masters has many schools of thought, and although Dalin is a holy land for Star Masters, it is also the target of competition among other sects.

Moreover, the public has a natural tendency to sympathize with the weak. Or rather, they are more likely to empathize with Gao Wu, a Star Master from a humble background.

Zhang Xuanxiang came from a prestigious and upright family, and his aloofness in all aspects naturally created a sense of distance between him and the general public.

Ordinary people without an academy-like bias will naturally gravitate towards high-level martial arts. Moreover, the transformation of a professional gamer into a Star Armor Master is more inspiring and legendary, making it easier to gain support from ordinary people.

The female host understood a principle even better: standing in the middle is meaningless; no one on either side will remember you.

She wanted to choose to support Zhang Xuanxiang, to let others argue and be angry, so that others would remember her!
By agreeing with these people, you may seem to be trying to please them, but in reality, no one will care.

The opposite is what generates traffic—that's reality! Unsurprisingly, her words immediately ignited the emotions of SkyNet viewers. The ratings even jumped two points!

With this result, the organizing committee should give her a huge bonus...

Gao Wu on the stage couldn't hear what the host was saying; his gaze was fixed on Vajra King opposite him.

Vajra Myo-o is the largest and heaviest of the Master Star Armor, standing twelve meters tall yet maintaining a stable and sturdy structure, which is extremely difficult.

The vajra in the opponent's hand was also very distinctive; it was only seven meters long but weighed thirty tons. Its triangular structure also gave it a certain cutting ability.

Despite being a hundred meters apart, Gao Wu was able to "see" Zhang Xuanxiang's state thanks to the blessing of the Qilin Divine Hero Mantra. He saw that Zhang Xuanxiang's spiritual magnetic field had condensed into a crimson Vajra King, which completely overlapped with the star armor he was riding.

Compared to his condition a few days ago, Zhang Xuanxiang's mental strength has increased by 30%. He also possesses an extraordinary and powerful mental strength, exuding an aura of extreme firmness and strength.

At this moment, Zhang Xuanxiang seemed to be possessed by Vajra King!

Gao Wu knew that Zhang Xuanxiang was blessed with divine power, but he didn't know whether this divine power came from a demon god or a divine general.

The powerful divine force resonated with Zhang Xuanxiang's spiritual magnetic field and his own nature, allowing him to enter a peak state where he was full of fighting spirit and burning with passion, yet remained calm as ice.

"You're using cheats too, but too bad, mine are even stronger..."

Gao Wu realized that Zhang Xuanxiang had used external force, and he laughed instead. If the Qilin Divine Hero Mantra hadn't been upgraded, Zhang Xuanxiang in this state would indeed be quite difficult to deal with.

Now, it's far from perfect... However, Zhang Xuanxiang also revealed all the essence and mysteries of Vajra King, which gave him some insights.

Gao Wu turned his gaze to the main stands, where the divine general Zhang Fuhu was sitting in the center seat. This man was tall, with white hair and gray eyebrows. Although he looked old, he was still exceptionally powerful and had an extraordinary presence.

No one explicitly stated Zhang Xuanxiang's background, but Gao Wu knew that Zhang Xuanxiang was Zhang Fuhu's grandson.

In his eyes, Zhang Fuhu's spiritual magnetic field condensed into a perfect golden halo, exuding a powerful and sacred aura.

If he hadn't seen the truth about the Abyss Demon God, he would never have imagined that Zhang Fuhu was actually a follower of the Demon God.

Or perhaps Zhang Fuhu didn't know the truth about the Demon God and only thought he was one of the true gods!

This is also normal.

The Qilin Divine Hero Mantra, which requires trillions of merits to upgrade, only resonates with the universe for a few seconds.

Without such resonance, he would not be able to see the source of the demon god.

A sharp whistle interrupted Gao Wu's wandering thoughts. The red light wall dissipated, and the Vajra King opposite him strode forward, raising his vajra pestle.

Zhang Xuanxiang did not rush to charge; the Vajra King he controlled was fast but steady.

Vajra King is indeed heavy, but under the stimulation of his powerful spiritual magnetic field, he also possesses extraordinary strength. Although not light, he can unleash terrifying speed and power in an instant.

He knew that Gao Wu was good at changing his tactics, and that charging in recklessly would only give the opponent an opportunity.

With at least one or two hundred billion people watching the battle in real time, how could Gao Wu possibly back down in front of so many people?
As expected, Long Yuan merely drew his two swords in a gesture, but showed no intention of retreating or evading.

"What a hero!" Although Zhang Xuanxiang hoped that Gao Wu would do this, seeing Long Yuan's brave and fearless posture, he couldn't help but praise him loudly.

Ye Ning in the stands was unusually anxious. She gripped Liu Ye Qingqing's hand tightly and muttered, "Positioning, positioning, what are you standing there for? Are you really going to fight head-on?"

Liu Yeqing also pursed her lips; she too couldn't understand Gao Wu's strategy. But she believed Gao Wu's combat wisdom far surpassed hers…

The entire Dalin Temple was incredibly excited. Gao Wu was going to face Zhang Xuanxiang head-on. Could he withstand even one of Zhang Xuanxiang's attacks?!
When the two were less than ten meters apart, Zhang Xuanxiang, riding the Vajra King, raised the Vajra pestle high and suddenly stepped forward to smash it straight into Longyuan.

Vajra King's step was swift and fierce. The plastic steel ground beneath his foot shattered with a deafening roar. The violent force radiated outwards along the plastic steel ground in a ring, shattering and exploding layer by layer, sending countless fragments flying.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire vast arena trembled violently.

This is not merely the weight of Vajra King; it also possesses an endless and fierce source of power generated by his spiritual magnetic field.

The audience felt a chill run down their spines; it seemed as if Vajra King's step had crushed their hearts.

The unparalleled impact of the scene stunned the minds of hundreds of thousands of viewers. Even Ye Ning, a high-level Star Master, was inevitably overwhelmed by the power of the Vajra King, his face turning pale.

Many Star Armor Masters also widened their eyes. Zhang Xuanxiang's aura was too strong today. The spiritual magnetic field he radiated made them all feel the pressure.

Can Gao Wu, who is facing Zhang Xuanxiang head-on, really withstand this attack?
The falling vajra shattered the air, leaving a long white crack in the sky.

Long Yuan, however, met the Vajra Pestle head-on with his sword crossed, causing the hearts of many Star Armor Masters to pound. What kind of fighting tactic was this? Had Gao Wu been paid to do this?

Regardless of what the onlookers thought, the twin swords and the vajra clashed head-on, producing a deafening roar.

Long Yuan's body suddenly sank downwards, his legs sinking more than a meter into the ground. The burst of source power once again lifted the ground up, sending huge pieces of plastic steel flying everywhere like cannonballs.

The giant vajra pressed down on the crossed swords, burying Longyuan deep into the ground. Although it seemed to have the upper hand, Zhang Xuanxiang had a bad feeling.

He mobilized all his source power and energy for a full-force attack, only to have it swallowed whole by the Dragon Abyss Twin Swords! How is this possible?

Long Yuan, who had just taken a heavy blow, paused for a moment before reflecting all the source power and spiritual energy he had received back. At the same time, he also used his high martial arts skills to condense sword energy into source power.

The crossed swords vibrated violently, emitting a sharp sword cry, and the heavy vajra was jolted high into the air.

Zhang Xuanxiang could not withstand the blow either, because the force was the combined power of him and Gao Wu. He could only raise his vajra pestle and step back to adjust and deflect the force.

The ground beneath Longyuan's feet shattered once more. Using the force, Longyuan leaped high into the air and thrust his swords downwards in a crisscross motion. The two swords pierced through the gap in Vajra King's neck and then twisted.

The mighty head of Vajra King flew up amidst the flashing sword light...

A unified gasp of surprise erupted from the entire audience…
