His strength increased, and he even obtained the nascent form of Chaos Divine Fire. Xu Chuan was in a great mood because of this.
However, to break through to the Emperor Venerable realm, his current accumulation was still insufficient.
He had no clear idea of how to further increase his strength.
Suddenly.
He remembered the secret technique he had obtained from Li Yan's divine soul earlier.
When he had seen Li Yan fuse with Hou Qinglin and his strength greatly increase, he had felt a stir of desire.
Therefore, when he killed Li Yan, he had deliberately searched for this method.
The purpose was to see if he could try to cultivate it and use it to enhance his own strength.
If not for Ling Feng's interruption, he would have almost forgotten about it.
Now that he remembered it again, he decided to study it thoroughly!
Perhaps, this secret technique was the key for him to break through to the Emperor Venerable realm.
This was a hint from the destiny trait [A Sense of Foreboding].
Xu Chuan was quite fond of this destiny trait.
It had helped him a lot on his cultivation path.
Many times, it was thanks to the hints from this destiny trait that he had been able to turn danger into safety.
Although it was only a purple destiny trait, its help was no less than that of a golden destiny trait!
Therefore, Xu Chuan attached great importance to the hints from his destiny traits.
He began to examine everything in Li Yan's memory regarding this secret technique.
The first thing that caught his eye were five large characters.
"One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones?!"
Xu Chuan muttered to himself.
This name, at first glance, was extraordinary.
It shared the same name as a great divine ability from the myths and legends of his previous life!
He had already obtained a secret technique for Three Heads Six Arms before.
Now, another "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" had appeared.
Xu Chuan even suspected that this world had some inexplicable connection with his previous world.
Otherwise, there was no way such familiar names would appear.
However, Xu Chuan did not delve too deeply into these matters.
These were things that his current strength could not explore.
When he became invincible in the chaos, he would have plenty of time to research them.
His consciousness sank into the secret technique, reading it over and over.
"It truly lives up to its name, this One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones secret technique is indeed wondrous!"
After browsing through it, Xu Chuan couldn't help but sigh.
At the same time, he realized that Li Yan had not fully comprehended this secret technique.
In fact, he might have even gone down the wrong path.
Otherwise, his combat power would have been several times stronger!
If that were the case, the outcome of that battle would have been uncertain!
Sensing this, Xu Chuan couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.
Fortunately, he was now a Son of Destiny.
Heaven's will favored him.
This greatly increased his chances of winning!
"If I can cultivate this successfully, I will be able to directly attempt to break through to the Emperor Venerable realm!"
"Even, at the moment of breaking through to the Emperor Venerable realm, I will be able to advance far on the path of an Emperor Venerable!"
After analyzing it, Xu Chuan reached this conclusion.
This relieved Xu Chuan.
The destiny trait's hint was indeed correct.
He had found the way!
"Let's begin cultivating, break through as soon as possible, and get out of here!"
Xu Chuan calmed himself down and repeatedly studied the contents of the secret technique.
Once he was thoroughly familiar with all the procedures for cultivating this secret technique and ensured that there would be no problems, he began to cultivate.
The so-called One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
It was about using the rules of martial arts to cut out three avatars within one's own body.
These three avatars would represent the past life, the present life, and the future life, respectively.
Each of them could be said to be Xu Chuan.
And each of them could also be said not to be Xu Chuan.
Their souls were all divided from Xu Chuan's Yang God.
They possessed independent consciousness, yet they had a subtle connection with Xu Chuan.
And they could merge with him at any time.
Unlike Li Yan's previous situation, where he only split out one avatar and that was it.
Furthermore, it could only be merged once, and then no further merging was possible.
As Xu Chuan delved deeper into the understanding of the technique, he was surprised to discover.
There was a connection between the Three Heads Six Arms technique and One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones!
After cultivating Three Heads Six Arms, he could more easily cut out the three avatars.
And it directly saved him the pain of splitting his soul.
This was an unexpected joy!
If there were no other option, who would want to endure such pain.
Now, being able to bypass this step was a tremendous boon for Xu Chuan!
Whoosh!
The moment he began cultivating this secret technique.
The martial dao rules within Xu Chuan's inner world were activated.
These martial dao rules directly pulled out the illusory River of Time.
However, what appeared in the river was nothing else.
It was merely Xu Chuan's past, present, and a vague future.
After all, with Xu Chuan's current strength, it was impossible to manifest a true River of Time.
Everything about Xu Chuan was manifested on the river.
Cut!
Xu Chuan's thought descended.
Following the method described in One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
He transformed the massive amount of martial dao rules into a sharp blade of rules and slashed down at the River of Time.
Rumble!
The already illusory and weak River of Time, under the blade of rules, was directly broken into three parts.
Each of these three parts represented Xu Chuan at a different period.
The River of Time slowly transformed into pure light.
Then, Xu Chuan shouted, "Merge!"
The three streams of pure light trembled violently.
Then Xu Chuan directly threw his already divided soul into them and merged with them.
Following this, the martial dao rules began to solidify, forming three bodies identical to Xu Chuan.
Once the bodies were completely formed, the three streams of pure light, which had merged with souls, rushed into the bodies and merged completely with them.
Each of these three bodies possessed astonishing potential.
It could be said that they were all top-tier martial arts prodigies.
They would definitely progress at lightning speed in their martial dao cultivation.
Boom!
Terrifying pressure descended upon the Void Immortal Realm.
Instantly, the Void Immortal Realm felt as if it was on the verge of world destruction.
Xu Chuan also felt this pressure.
He understood that Heaven's will was enraged and would not allow Xu Chuan to master One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
It wanted to descend calamities to obliterate these three bodies.
However, at this point, it lost its target.
The dense fog in the grand hall directly isolated Heaven's will.
Unable to locate Xu Chuan, this calamity began to wreak havoc within the Void Immortal Realm.
It seemed to be venting its anger.
"It's almost done!"
Xu Chuan's eyes were somewhat dim, and his complexion was slightly pale.
Cultivating this secret technique was more difficult than he had imagined.
He had paid a great price.
But compared to the gains after successfully cultivating it.
All of this was worth it!
Finally, the illusory feeling on the three bodies disappeared, and a special sensation appeared in Xu Chuan's heart.
Xu Chuan rejoiced and said, "It's done!"
The three bodies also opened their eyes simultaneously.
In the grand hall, there were now four Xu Chuan.
Three avatars and one main body.
On the surface, whether it was their appearance or the aura of their souls, they were identical to the main body.
It was likely that even those closest to Xu Chuan would have difficulty distinguishing them!
Although these three avatars possessed self-awareness.
Essentially, they still obeyed Xu Chuan.
As long as he wished, he could recall them at any time, or separate them at any time.
Furthermore, the cultivation realm of the three avatars was not much different from his current one.
The only thing lacking was the gap in energy.
