40 Chapter 40

'Almost...almost.'

It has been three weeks since Gong Wu entered metamorphosis and he knew he would be ready to emerge very soon.

During the entire process, Gong Wu had been in a dream-like state going in and out of consciousness.

However, Gong Wu hadn't been setting idle in his cocoon of essence Qu instead he has been using the "Flesh Forging Metamorphic art,"

Guiding the reconstruction method and reforming Gong Wu's physique, making it as terrifying as possible.

'Now!'

With a series of cracks and pops, the fiery cocoon made of pure essence Qi shattered into thousands of pieces and dissipated into the air leaving not a trace of it behind.

Where the cocoon once laid was now a glorious young man this man was Gong Wu.

His body underwent a fundamental transformation that has reshaped his whole physique.

His crystal clear skin emitted a faint light, and his raven black hair danced wildly in the air.

Every movement was accompanied by the sound of surging water, like a raging sea tearing through the room.

Except it wasn't water making that energetic noise it was Gong Wu's blood Qi flowing through his veins.

There was no longer any trace of fat on Gong Wu's body, It was like a divine work of art that was sculpted by a master.

"What's going on why am I here?"

Gong Wu was delirious he had completely forgotten what was going on but he had a vague feeling he was trapped right now.

'I remember now!'

It all came rushing back to Gong Wu, he knew why he was in this room.

"Coiling Dragon Temple, how do I get out of here!?"

Gong Wu walked to the door just to stop midway when he noticed something off about the room.

'Why is everything still in one piece if my memory serves correct I destroyed it all during my crazed rampage?'

Gong Wu quickly realized that he had been relocated during the metamorphic transformation and this thought deeply disturbed him.

This meant while he was defenseless people could come into the room and do anything they wanted to him.

Gong Wu swallowed his discomfort and decided to escape immediately he didn't care whether or not that Dao protector might kill him if he did.

He had to leave now before anything else terrible could happen to him.

However, Gong Wu hesitated when saw a new figure in a large mirror near the door.

'Was this me, I noticed that my body changed but not this much!'

Gong Wu was in disbelief at his miraculous transformation, he couldn't even recognize himself in the mirror he was just that different now.

He was no longer a slender 7(3) anymore instead he was now a compact 6(4) with all his mass compressed into a lean muscular form.

My once gaunt and towering figure is now full of perfectly crafted muscles wrapped in clear jade skin.

My eyes have become a deep amber color, so deep that if you stared into them it felt like you could suffocate.

My greasy hair was now thick and smooth like a piece of finely woven silk.

I had been completely reborn after using the "Flesh Forging Metamorphic art,"

'But why did I become smaller?'

Gong Wu focused and used his inner vision, a technique he learned a long time ago, to view his insides, and what he saw amazed him.

His dark redbones which were once full of thousands of dime-sized holes were now normal white solid bones.

"Did my special constitution mutate!?"

This was very possible since special constitutions are just simple mutations they can undergo further mutation if simulated properly.

'I wonder what it does now? I hope it hasn't disappeared since my bones are normal now.'

Gong Wu knew special constitutions could change but he wasn't sure if they could vanish.

He really wished they didn't since that special constitution was the only advantage he had in this life.

'Never mind that I must find a way out but I do know I can't leave out that door.'

Gong Wu could clearly feel that space locking formation surrounding the room, he could also now sense all the spiritual Qi in the room.

His cultivation was still in the body tempering realm but he felt his strength far surpassed it.

"I feel like I could crush anyone below the golden core realm, my body has been tempered to such a frightening degree!"

It wasn't just his physique that has been reshaped.

His aptitude, talent, and comprehensive ability were all enhanced, making him almost as terrifying as the genius born from large clans or large sects.

'Just how strong has that technique made me? I must use it again!'
