Then he could attempt to agglomerate his blood vessels and enter the Blood Condensation stage, thus becoming a true martial artist. As the FengFu Star grew larger, his physical body also changed with it and became stronger. The FengFu Star was just like a spring nourishing his whole body. His current transformation made him greatly different from his old self. Each Star requires ‘nine transformations’ to become perfect.” The other most peculiar aspect of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art was that while ordinary cultivators had to cross only nine Heavenstages for each cultivation realm, Long Chen has to go through thirteen Heavenstages to enter the next realm. Besides, after the ninth Heavenstage, each increase allowed his power to explosively multiply.
