Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================¶¶================

"Tier-1 Heaven Ranked Martial Spirit!"

When it happened, Arthur could immediately sense the qualitative change that his Martial Spirit just went through.

"Right now if I enlarge my Devouring Martial Spirit to its widest form it would be sufficient to cover an area of about a thousand meters."

The absorbing power of the martial spirit has been enhanced an unknown number of times.

It was so much so that Arthur knew if he cultivated now, it would only take him a few days to reach the peak of the Gold Core Realm!

What sort of concept is that?

This was a crazy cultivation speed that other Martial Spirits of the same rank as Arthur's would not be able to match.

Although Heaven Rank Martial Spirits were fast, they could not compare to the speed of the Devouring Martial Spirit as this was its specialty.

It devours.

Arthur took a deep breath to quell the excitement he felt as this was not yet the end.

"I will leave these Earth Grade spirit crystals for another use. Now for the heaven-ranked ones..."

Arthur's consciousness peered through the storage ring that Cora gave to him and examined the amount of heaven-grade spirit crystals.

"This should be enough," he calculated that they should be enough for him to level up his martial spirit to the peak of the heaven rank.

'Cora, you have no idea how much help you have brought to me,' Arthur decided he would treat her a bit better because of this.

Meanwhile, Cora had no idea about the help she brought as those spirit crystals were not worth anything to her at all.

Only spirit crystals above the heaven rank could get her attention.

Just like before, Arthur's martial spirit absorbed and refined the spirit crystals and slowly began to increase its rank.

In a short amount of time, another violet-colored ring appeared behind Arthur.

Tier-2 Heaven Ranked Martial Spirit!

Time passed and after an unknown length of time, Arthur halted his absorption because his martial spirit had been filled up.

Ten violet rings appeared around it signifying its rank.

Peak Heaven Ranked Martial Spirit.

Arthur held the urge to spread his devouring martial spirit and smiled.

Even though only a few thousand heaven-grade spirit crystals remained from the crazy absorption, Arthur felt satisfied, for now.

From his past life memories, he knew that there were still martial spirits of a higher grade out there in the vast universe, but he will get to that level with time.

But even so, with the current rank of his martial soul, he would be considered a very rare genius even in the higher realms.

'For this lower realm, this is enough. Moreover, I feel a bit strange...'

Since his martial spirit reached the heaven rank Arthur had felt a change in his body and felt a certain urge within himself to...devour something?

​ He unsummoned his martial spirit, and used his spirit power to scan for any changes in his body.

After a few minutes, Arthur opens his eyes wide in surprise.

"Did I just get a new physique?" He thought out loud.

'Wait, I need to confirm this...'

Arthur brought out a spiritual herb from his storage ring and a sweet plant-like smell filled his nostrils.

The plant was shaped like a flower but with three small red fruits at the top.

The was the red berry flower, a fourth-grade spiritual herb.

Holding the plant in his hand, Arthur sensed a force within his body.

This force felt like it was within every part of him, filling up every cell, and he knew what this force was.

'Devouring force,' Arthur named it.

With a thought, the devouring force came out from his palm and made contact with the plant.

And immediately it did, the plant began to lose its color and soon it became just a husk as all of its essences was sucked dry in an instant.

"Fuuu," Arthur blew on it and it dispersed with the wind like dust.

"Wow," Arthur was surprised, pleasantly surprised.

That was a fourth-grade herb that he just devoured!

A fourth-grade herb that even Grand Martial Realm cultivators will not dare absorb directly.

Spiritual medicines have a bit of chaotic essence energy within them. That is why they have to be refined by Alchemist into pills to get the purest essence out of them.

Absorbing the plants like that can cause problems to a person's cultivation.

But Arthur felt none of that as all the essence energy in the plant was absorbed and refined in an instant and his body absorbed it.

"Wait, my body?" Arthur noticed as he used his spirit power to scan his body and found out that the essence energy he absorbed did not go into his daitian as he expected but got evenly absorbed by his body.

At the same time, he felt a very minuscule amount of strengthening take place.

It was too little to be noticed and was practically negligible, and Arthur was only able to barely sense it due to his spirit power.

"So now I have a new special physique. And it is such a powerful one at that. And I still have not discovered its full abilities yet."

Arthur remembered that Suo Hao told him that he had a physique that had never been seen before, and one that could create a new physique for him as long as certain conditions are met.

Suo Hao also said that with such an ability it was possible for Arthur to have multiple special physiques!

The possibilities were endless!

'Is the condition to create a new physique to have a Heaven Ranked Martial Spirit?'

'But how would I have a new martial spirit?'

'Can I devour one? That might be possible even though I have not tried it before.'

'With the devouring physique, I should be able to absorb and assimilate with almost anything.'

'It's like it was perfectly suited for my original physique!'

Arthur recalled how he was able to absorb Old Man Whitebeard's soul power with his martial soul.

This means he would be able to absorb soul power with his physique and maybe even an entire soul.

Arthur realized he needed to do a lot of testing so that he will know the details of what he can and can not do with his martial soul and new physique.

This way he can make plans that will maximize the abilities of both.

After a bit of thinking Arthur finally decided on a name for both of his special physiques.

"My first and original physique which is the most powerful in my opinion shall be called, the Dao Creation Physique!"

"It may have no destructive power but the ability to create any special physique is heaven-defying. And if there is anything that makes me excited is defying the heavens!"

"As for my devouring physique, hmm, I will call you the..."

"Dao Devouring Physique!"

'Because one day...I might devour the Grand Heavenly Dao!' Arthur said in his heart.
