Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog

Gradually, it appeared within the Innate Furnace, landing atop the gray cocoon that enveloped Chen Ku.

In an instant, a golden lotus slowly blossomed, from which a spirit vein extended, rooting into Chen Ku's flesh.

The lotus seat supported this gray cocoon, and suddenly Chen Ku felt his mass of flesh beginning to transform, as if a fetus were being reborn.

In a daze, Chen Ku understood something.

"This is the Tenth Layer of Huntian Skill, leveraging the Innate Origin within the Innate Furnace, starting to operate spontaneously, beginning the impact on the Eleventh Layer of the Huntian Overlord Body!"

He felt that the vein from the golden lotus, akin to an umbilical cord, was connected to his mass of flesh. Subsequently, his body gained the outline of a fetus.

The pain disappeared.

Next came an indescribable warmth and comfort. As a day passed, Chen Ku found that his fetal arms and legs had appeared, curled within the large cocoon.

On the second day, the fetus within the cocoon began to develop facial features.

By the third day, the internal organs and other parts started to form.

...

By the ninth day, Chen Ku felt that his 'young' fetal body had completely formed, except his eyes couldn't open because he sensed something brewing within them.

"The Eyes of the Tyrant Body?"

Chen Ku speculated about something.

From then on, he observed the growth of his body entirely from a third-person perspective, and since the formation of his fetal body, the growth rate was almost nine transformations a day.

Every day, he grew by three zhang.

Simultaneously, the Innate Furnace also expanded with him.

Thus, as time continued to swiftly pass by.

The cocoon within the Innate Furnace kept swelling, and Chen Ku's body grew from a fetus, and by the time he reached the age of three or four, he was already over ten zhang tall, like a giant ancient deity's infant.

"Is this still a human? At this rate, by the day of emergence, won't my physical body become a giant?"

Chen Ku felt that once he emerged, he seemingly could no longer be called a mortal but rather some ancient race coexisting with heaven and earth.

"Fortunately, the Golden Dragon Transformation has the Divine Skill of Big and Small Ruyi. Even if the true form becomes as tall as a mountain, it can still shrink back."

At the same time, Chen Ku, with eyes closed, consciously clenched his small fists, clearly feeling the terrifying power contained within these small fists.

Even at this tender stage, it seemed as if he could flick himself dead with just a finger.

"Is this the power of the Tyrant Body? Or perhaps the extraordinariness of the Innate Foundation?"

...

Since Yuan Wutian's attack on Guzi Pass led to his capture and death, and the subsequent severe loss of over thirty-six thousand Qi Cultivators from Yuan Country, nearly two months had passed in the blink of an eye.

In these fifty-plus days, because of the battle at Guzi Pass, the warfare on the northern front of Ji Country had diminished considerably, while the conflicts in the northeast had become increasingly intense.

Due to the resurfacing of Prince Yong Yang Han, he drew out three ancient Qi Cultivators from Yuan Country, all Fourteen Realms Ascenders from the Immortal Temple of the Beiyuan royal family.

The three Fourteen Realms reached the northeast, yet that Prince Yong Yang Han, reputedly having obtained the will of the Martial Temple and being the Grand Ancestor's own brother, could still hold the northeastern frontline firmly.

However, several days ago, the appearance of a palace that stretched across the western ocean and docked above the Northeast Sea shocked the entire world.

Because that palace was actually one of the Yun Dynasty's God Temples among the five major nations out of the two hundred or so in the world.

It's rumored that all cities and palaces of the Great Fortune Dynasty are Small Thousand Worlds, floating in the sky, connected to each other, making each palace in every city a city itself, each city a Cave Heaven, and an Array Eye.

Extrapolating from this, the entire Yun Dynasty is the largest grand array since the dawn of creation, operated by the countless billions of people in the Cave Heavens of each grand palace.

Thus, the docking of a Yun Dynasty God Temple in the northeast of Ji Country clearly indicated its intentions.

Yun Dynasty has entered the war!

What was originally the Ji Yuan Great War, evidently, from this day forward, was proclaimed to become a new era's 'Three Kingdoms Chaos,' and perhaps even...

The Fourth World War!

The so-called world war has documented recognition, the first one recorded in history being in ancient times when the 'Emperor True Dragon' unified the nine regions of the world.

The second world war was during the late ancient times, post the True Dragon's fall, with various factions like Taoist, Buddhist, Demon, Immortal fighting for hegemony and establishing doctrines.

The third world war arose three thousand years ago due to the 'Tao Demon Immortal' wars of the Three Kingdoms, eventually leading the five great nations of Taoist, Buddhist, Demon, Immortal, and God to restart, forming today's Yun, Luo, Yuan, Ji, and Yang as the five major countries and two to three hundred small ones.

After that, there hadn't been a war involving more than three countries for three millennia, especially with the entry of 'Great Fortune Dynasty,' deemed the most powerful country in the world.

For a time, countries all over the world, and hundreds of small nations, with various emotions—whether trembling, anticipating, or fearing—watched the wheels of the world's grand fate about to roll forward!

At the same time.

On an island floating in mid-air in the camp of the Invading Army against Ji, the Thirteenth Prince of Yuan Country, Gu Hanfei, after discussing the changes in the global situation with many within the camp, finally led the conversation back to their current predicament:
