Chapter 728: Chapter 491: God-Level Body Tempering Method! (4K)_2
Lu Changsheng then found another Body Tempering Skill suitable for Lu Qinglian â an Emperor Tier mid-grade Body Tempering Technique called âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ.
The technique has nine levels.
To cultivate the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ, one needs various fire attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills for Body Tempering. Each breakthrough is accompanied by fierce fire burning. If one withstands it, the physique will be improved; if not, death is certain.
Although the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is an Emperor Tier mid-grade cultivation technique and is one level below the Emperor Tier top-grade âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ,
It is not necessarily so.
When cultivated to Great Perfection, the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ allows oneâs physique to be comparable to a top-grade Emperor Soldier, on par with the 13th level of âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ.
The âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is rated as an Emperor Tier mid-grade cultivation technique for three reasons.
Firstly, the cultivation of âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ can only use fire attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills. In contrast, the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ can be cultivated with any attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills. Therefore, the conditions for cultivating the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ are more stringent than those for cultivating the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ.
Secondly, the amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills required to cultivate the nine levels of the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is comparable to those needed to cultivate all thirteen levels of the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ.
Thirdly, the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is exceedingly dangerous. While basic cultivation of the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ only requires an accumulation of various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills, each breakthrough in the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is akin to taking a walk through the Ghost Gate Pass.
Therefore, after a comprehensive evaluation, due to various shortcomings, the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ is only rated as an Emperor Tier mid-grade cultivation technique.
Most Body Tempering Martial Artists do not dare to take the risk of cultivating the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ.
But for Lu Changsheng, this is not an issue.
Lu Changsheng has an abundance of fire attribute Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills required for cultivating the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ.
With Lu Qinglianâs Martial King Divine Physique already strong enough, the nine reincarnations through fire shouldnât be a problem during her cultivation of the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ.
Rewarding a mid-grade Emperor Tier technique comes with a system reward.
âFrom today onwards, you shall cultivate this technique.â
Lu Changsheng bestowed the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ to Lu Qinglian.
Lu Changsheng had already prepared the Body Refinement Elixir in advance.
For fire attribute Immortal Pills, there were countless in Lu Changshengâs possession, with the True Yang Limitless Pill being one of them.
Lu Qinglian memorized the Body Tempering Mnemonic Verse and began cultivating the first level.
With the fire attribute Body Refinement Elixir akin to magma, Lu Qinglian meditated while exercising her Qi within it, as her Martial King Divine Physique incessantly devoured the medicinal power of the elixir.
Her body was flawless, with strands of her azure hair shimmering with firelight.
With Lu Qinglianâs constitution, cultivating the first level of the âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ was effortless.
It was not only the first level â the Body Tempering Elixir refined by Lu Changsheng directly aided Lu Qinglian in reaching the fourth level.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple, Lu Qinglian, with an Emperor Tier mid-grade technique âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ and gained a reward of 9 million times return: A God Tier sixth-grade Body Tempering Technique âEternal Indestructible Artâ.]
A God Tier technique?!
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath.
The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator actually returned a technique that surpasses Emperor Tier!
God Tier techniques, cultivated by Divine King Realm experts, are unique skills passed on.
God Tier techniques are divided into nine grades.
The lowest is the ninth-grade God Tier technique, and the highest is the first-grade.
âEternal Indestructible Artâ, as a sixth-grade God Tier Body Tempering Technique, is a strong cultivation method even among God Tier techniques.
The system displayed brief information about this technique.
[âEternal Indestructible Artâ: A God Tier sixth-grade Body Tempering Technique divided into ten levels, created by the Immortal Divine King during Ancient Times. Upon cultivating it to the highest realm, the flesh can compare to a Dao Artifact, eternally indestructible.]
The Immortal Divine King?
Lu Changsheng had seen records of this Divine King in ancient texts.
Legend has it that this Divine King reached the pinnacle of the Divine King Realm, and with one punch could shatter a hundred thousand mountains and obliterate stars.
The Body Tempering Technique he created had reached the level of a sixth-grade God Tier technique.
There was another technique available for cultivation.
If Lu Changsheng could master the âEternal Indestructible Artâ while in the Immortal Emperor Realm, then he would be unparalleled in the Immortal Emperor Realm.
A physical body comparable to a Dao Artifact in the Immortal Emperor Realm?
Lu Changsheng dared not even imagine it.
Lu Changsheng attempted to cultivate the first level.
âEternal Indestructible Artâ requires a huge amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, even more than what the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Artâ requires.
Moreover, the uniqueness of the âEternal Indestructible Artâ lies in the necessity to disassemble and reconstruct the body during the Body Tempering process, which involves enduring endless agony and potential demise during disassembly.
Feeling the intense pain from all over his body, Lu Changsheng gave a wry smile.
â`
He finally understood that both âEternal Indestructible Artâ and âFire Phoenix Nirvana Methodâ were dangerous cultivation techniques, which is why they werenât highly ranked.
In fact, the tier of âEternal Indestructible Artâ was not just Divine Tier Six, but it was downgraded because of its danger.
The tier of a cultivation technique was also related to its level of danger.
If out of ten cultivators who practice a technique, nine perish as a result, then the evaluation wonât be high.
Lu Changsheng became even more cautious.
If one could master the âEternal Indestructible Art,â it was fine, but if not, then it was dangerous.
The first layer of the âEternal Indestructible Artâ was already extremely perilous and painful.
The Immortal Divine King who created this technique was truly a madman, having created a method that tormented oneself.
However, just the first layer of the method already surpassed the thirteenth layer of the âQing Emperor Eternal Life Art.â
Lu Changsheng knew that this body tempering technique was worth cultivating, even if it meant suffering.
Sword Tomb.
Xu Jing was still trying to resurrect the female sword immortal of the Heavenly Sect.
The soul of the female sword immortal was slowly condensing.
Normally, using the Yins ha Qi to create a new soul within an empty shell could take hundreds of millions of years, or even longer.
But Xu Jing possessed the Ghost King Banner.
This treasure could gather the Yins ha Qi from a hundred thousand li around, concentrating it near the Ghost King Banner. Weaker Yins ha like the mountain demons and yakshas would be crushed by the power of the Ghost King Banner and return to their elemental qi.
With the Ghost King Banner, Xu Jingâs speed of cultivating the Netherworld techniques increased significantly, and the speed of the female sword immortalâs soul condensing was faster as well.
According to Xu Jingâs estimate, the female sword immortalâs body originally required hundreds of millions of years to condense a soul, but with the Ghost King Bannerâs help it would only take a few million years to resurrect.
This was equivalent to Xu Jing granting her a new life.
Xu Jing was also cultivating the Deductive Method of the Netherworld.
In front of Xu Jing lay more than a dozen bones, all with cracks, and the patterns formed by the cracks were the result of the deduction.
âA sign of great misfortune.â
While cultivating, Xu Jing awoke with a start when the divination indicated great misfortune.
Lu Changshengâs actions were always quite stable.
Once Xu Jing deduced an omen of great misfortune, he immediately placed the female sword immortal into his space ring, then retracted the Ghost King Banner, erased his own presence, and hurriedly fled.
When one cannot discern where the threat is coming from, of the thirty-six strategies, fleeing is the best.
Xu Jing didnât hesitate for a moment.
Just after Xu Jing had left, in less than two hours, several figures appeared where Xu Jing had just been.
âThat person has fled.â
âIs it possible to track his whereabouts?â
âIt seems he used a treasure that shielded his presence; we are no longer able to continue the pursuit.â
âIf we return like this, we canât explain to our master.â
âWe have no choice⊠Even the master didnât expect her to still be alive. If she were to regain her power from the past, we wouldnât be her match either.â
âIdiots, sheâs already dead.â
âThen why does our master still want us to track her down?â
âI donât know that, letâs go back and report.â
The figures quickly disappeared again.
By this time, Xu Jing had already fled far, with lingering fears in his heart.
What exactly was the âgreat misfortuneâ indicated by the divination?
He, Xu Jing, had offended very few powerhouses; it was unlikely that he would be hunted down.
âCould it be because of this female sword immortal?â
Xu Jing turned his suspicion towards the female sword immortal he had unearthed.
But then Xu Jing shook his head.
What a joke.
The entire Immortal Realm knew that the Heavenly Sect, a super sword cultivator sect from ancient times, had been annihilated, with no survivors. With the passage of time, who else would know of such a female sword immortal?
âIâll go back and consult my master.â
Not daring to return to the Sword Tomb for cultivation, Xu Jing headed back to Mount Taihua.
