Four Arm Earth King

In the decisive battle against Ma tribe, when Cheng Hu’s tiger transformation reaches him, two bronze arms grow. No less than fourteen Gu worms take part, including rank five Amplify Effect Gu. Defense rises by over four times, strength reaches eight hundred jun, and while he touches the ground that strength keeps rising without end. His body inflates to twice its size under a bronze luster, four arms thicker than a grown man’s thighs. He rips Cheng Hu’s tiger form in two, then flies through the thunder eagle group and kills Eagle King Yang Po Ying. He fiercely smashes into Cheng Long’s giant dragon. Ma Shang Feng cries that even Cheng Long could not take one move from him. Hei Lou Lan sees a reflection of Liu tribe’s three heads six arms. ^{ch. 541}

After the battle the bronze arms vanish. Repercussions are much more serious than he expected: heavy internal bleeding, and his soul weakened to five hundred man soul. The several experiments before only scratched the surface; this battle is the first time he used the move to its extreme, even beyond the theorised time limit. Four arm earth king was made in a hurry from five hundred years of experience and a moment of inspiration, and was still in experimental phase. Earth Overlord Gu at rank five is the cause of the heavy aftermath: the move was based on ground fighting, and longer contact with the ground lightens the repercussions, but he flew almost the entire fight. He will not give up flying, so the killer move has to be greatly altered. ^{ch. 543}

Despite great flaws in dual cultivation, and despite four arm earth king being newly created and not yet perfected, they were already enough as a cornerstone that lets him stand proud in the mortal world. ^{ch. 544}

Injuries from that use have already recovered. He changes Earth Overlord Gu to Wind Overlord Gu and adjusts the other supplementary Gu, so he need not step on the ground and fights best in the wind. The stronger the wind, the more battle strength he can display, and the smaller the drawbacks after the move. A fight with no wind leaves consequences no better than before, and Gu Masters have many methods to restrict the wind. He treats four arm earth king as only a starting point toward eliminating the weakness of strength-enslavement dual cultivation. The result still cannot escape the limits of transformation path; he wants a lasting change to the body, not a temporary transformation. Reaching this point had already expended his five hundred years of knowledge accumulation. ^{ch. 546}

Fang Yuan had been trying to combine strength path and enslavement path. Four arm earth king was the initial result, his strength path killer move, a casually created killer move full of flaws. After he improved it, it became four arm wind king. With this move he went on a killing spree in the final battle of the Imperial Court contest, defeating Ma tribe’s army and pushing Hei Lou Lan into Imperial Court blessed land. ^{ch. 569}

Six Arm Heavenly Zombie King is about ten times as strong as four arm earth king and four arm wind king. Fang Yuan could test four arm earth king himself earlier because the risks were not great and he could endure them. ^{ch. 570}

Mo Yao’s will warns that Hei Lou Lan’s strength path killer move surpasses four arm earth king. Fang Yuan refuses to use four arm earth king, because he has a stronger strength path killer move, and activates Six Arm Heavenly Zombie King instead. ^{ch. 621}
