Jun Wuxie’s heart pounded, had a sealed prehistoric civilization been opened?
The moment the Shrine’s gate opened, a thick, ancient aura surged forth.
He saw gigantic Azure Stone Ancient Steles, shrouded in mist, somewhat blurry, like tombstones.
One, two, three…
There were exactly Nine Azure Stone Ancient Steles, covered with densely packed sword-shaped characters, but they were not very clear.
Even from a great distance, he felt a suffocating sense of oppression!
“Someone actually managed to enter the Eternal Life Shrine?”
A slightly surprised voice interrupted Jun Wuxie’s thoughts.
“Who?”
Jun Wuxie’s heart tightened; there was someone inside the Shrine?
He bravely walked further in and vaguely saw a nine-story Bronze Ancient Tower, its body covered in cracks.
“Possessing Mysterious Divine Meridians of Chaos but only being in the Acquired Realm.” The Mysterious Woman’s voice spoke again: “So, the Bloodline was stolen, and the Dantian shattered. No wonder he could gain the recognition of the Key to Eternal Life…”
“Senior?”
Jun Wuxie looked at the Ancient Tower in front, covered in cracks. It seemed the voice was coming from inside it?
“I have a Cultivation Technique here that can help you forge a Dantian different from ordinary people. Are you willing to try?”
“Why would Senior help me?” Jun Wuxie’s mood was agitated, but he calmed himself and said, “Senior must have conditions, right?”
There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world!
“Of course. As for what the conditions are, I will tell you in the future. You are not yet qualified to know now.”
After the Mysterious Woman finished speaking, a golden light rushed out from the tower and submerged into Jun Wuxie’s glabella, and a large amount of information surged into his mind.
“Forge the Physical Body with Soldier’s Intent, build a Physical Body Dantian, transform all Qi into blood essence, solidify the foundation of life, and generate endless Qi and blood. Fuse the source of all weapons, gather the Qi of the Beginning, Cultivate the strongest Saint-Grade Physique, and refine an invincible Golden Body…”
Primordial Golden Body Art!
Jun Wuxie examined it carefully. Was this a Cultivation Technique specifically for cultivating the Physical Body?
Physical Body cultivation, due to lacking a systematic foundation, generally could only reach the Peak of the Acquired Realm. It couldn't defeat an Innate Realm Martial Artist who cultivated True Qi, let alone Realms above the Innate Realm.
However, this Primordial Golden Body Art opened up a whole new world for Martial Artists who Cultivated their Physical Body!
“What are you so excited about?”
A Weapon Tomb appeared out of thin air, with ancient swords, ancient spears, battle lances, and other weapons like bells, tripods, towers, and seals floating above it.
“Enter the Weapon Tomb and circulate the Primordial Golden Body Art. You can try to forge your Physical Body into a Dantian. You must consider carefully; once you fail, your body will burst and you will die.”
“No need to consider!”
Jun Wuxie knew this was his only chance to become stronger!
As a weakling, one could only be at the mercy of others, powerless to resist, watching those they cared about suffer humiliation without being able to do anything!
He didn't want to continue living in mediocrity; he would risk his life for this!
He stepped into the Weapon Tomb!
Sword Intent struck, and Jun Wuxie instantly felt as if his body was being torn apart. The unbearable pain made him cry out in agony.
Spear Intent was sharp, each time feeling as if it pierced through his body.
The Bell’s Intent vibrated, threatening to shatter his Soul.
The Tripod’s Intent and Tower’s Intent were as heavy as mountains, pressing him to the ground, forging his body like a giant hammer!
He gritted his teeth and persevered, always holding onto the belief that he could not die, that he had to become stronger. Only by becoming stronger could he protect Yue Yao and ensure she would no longer suffer.
He didn’t know how much time had passed. His consciousness had become blurry, gradually almost unable to perceive anything. He only felt as if his entire being had fallen into an abyss, continuously sinking, sinking.
At the same time, he seemed to see a ray of light, shining on him so warmly, as if it could dispel all the gloom in his heart and all the darkness before his eyes…
After a long while.
“He succeeded?” The Mysterious Woman muttered to herself: “Back then, countless powerful Ancient Blood Physiques, without exception, all exploded and died, making me once believe this method was unfeasible. It seems it wasn’t a problem with the Cultivation Technique, but a problem with the person…”
Jun Wuxie woke up from his daze, and upon hearing this, he almost fainted from anger.
“How do you feel now?”
Jun Wuxie tried to stretch his limbs. His body still felt pain, but unlike before, every inch of his flesh and blood was imbued with power!
At the same time, he felt that his body contained some indescribable things, similar to Sword Intent, Spear Intent, and so on.
He had a misconception, as if his Physical Body was not just flesh and blood, but also a weapon!
He tried to jump, and instantly leaped over ten meters!
He checked his cultivation.
Peak of Acquired Realm Ten Changes!
This was his Peak Realm from half a year ago, before his Mysterious Divine Meridians of Chaos were extracted!
What shocked him most was that his current strength was more than double what it was half a year ago at this Realm!
“Now test what Rank your Physical Body strength has reached.”
A stone platform flew out from the Ancient Tower and landed in front of Jun Wuxie.
“Physical Body strength also has a rating standard?”
Jun Wuxie was a little surprised. The surface of the stone platform was covered with runes, and there was a crystal stele on it.
He stepped onto the stone platform, and at the Mysterious Woman’s reminder, placed his hand on the crystal stele.
In an instant, a mysterious energy surged into his body, entering every inch of his flesh and blood in his limbs.
At the same time, the runes on the stone platform glowed faintly, and prehistoric characters gradually appeared on the crystal stele.
“Proto-Spiritual Rank?” The Mysterious Woman was a little surprised: “Not bad, a slightly higher Rank than I expected.”
“Senior, what does this Proto-Spiritual Rank Physical Body strength mean?”
“Proto-Spiritual Rank Physical Body strength is equivalent to the impact resistance of Proto-Spiritual Rank armor and the attack strength of Proto-Spiritual weapons. Of course, this is without using Martial Skills. If you use Martial Skills, you can now easily pierce Proto-Spiritual Rank armor and shatter Proto-Spiritual Rank weapons.”
“Senior, are you telling the truth?”
Jun Wuxie was shocked. What was the concept of a Proto-Spiritual weapon?
Xiao Xing, the head of the Xiao Family, had a Proto-Spiritual weapon that could cut through iron like mud and was extremely tough.
The Elders of the Xiao Family had tried it before. With their cultivation of Innate Realm Three Changes and Four Changes, even using their full strength, they could only bend the Proto-Spiritual weapon and could not cause substantial damage to it.
This meant that his current Physical Body could withstand attacks from Martial Artists below Innate Realm Five Changes, and the opponent couldn’t break his defense!
“Look at your lack of ambition. Your current Realm is too low. In the future, as your Realm improves, your Physical Body strength will synchronously increase to Spirit Rank One Star, Two Star… Nine Star, Saint-Grade…”
“Saint-Grade?” Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, and asked blankly: “What is Saint-Grade?”
“This is not something you should understand at the moment. Let’s stop here for today. Go collect resources and prepare for your Breakthrough. Remember, you must always treat your Physical Body as a weapon to comprehend Soldier’s Intent.”
“Hmm… In the future, it’s best to make Breakthroughs in each Realm within the Weapon Tomb; it can help you comprehend Soldier’s Intent.”
Jun Wuxie’s mouth twitched. Entering the Weapon Tomb was worse than death!
“Oh, and the Primordial Golden Body Art will make you consume ten to dozens of times more resources than ordinary people.”
“What?”
Jun Wuxie was dumbfounded. With such terrifying resource consumption, how could he Cultivate?
“Senior?”
The mysterious nine-story Ancient Tower was silent, with no sound responding to him.
Jun Wuxie thought for a moment and walked towards the Ancient Tower, but he was blocked by an invisible barrier and couldn’t Breakthrough it no matter what.
He stared blankly for a moment, then left the Eternal Life Shrine.
