Chapter 909 – Body Refinement (continued)

Body refining secret technique!

Yang Junshan had an idea and quickly said: “Please advise me, senior!”

Taoist Eastflow pondered for a moment, then said with focus: “One skin two meat, three veins and four bones, internal organs, seven marrow, eight blood and nine bones are all indestructible, do you know of this principle of body refining?”

Yang Junshan was slightly stunned as he shook his head: “This junior has only heard someone say before that the body is extremely strong compared to cultivators, but I do not know how important it is. The things this junior has obtained regarding body tempering over the years are mostly vague and unclear, so this is the first time this junior has heard of it.”

The Taoist Eastflow nodded his head and continued, “In the cultivation world, most cultivators do not value the body tempering technique. This is because in the process of cultivation, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth has seeped into the body, allowing the body to continuously grow stronger as the cultivation level increases.”

Yang Junshan nodded his head, it was extremely difficult to cultivate the body tempering technique, not only did it require a long period of perseverance, it would also consume a large amount of time, and very few cultivators were willing to spend their time cultivating it.

The Yang family also had inherited body tempering secret techniques, and had repeatedly warned the younger generations to practice body tempering secret techniques diligently, explaining the importance of body tempering secret techniques. However, most of the disciples were still not enthusiastic about body tempering.

But in reality, this process is extremely slow. At the very least, when one reaches our level of cultivation, looking back, they will realize that the nourishment provided by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to the body is almost negligible. Perhaps this nourishment is more comprehensive and can allow the body to be strengthened in all aspects.

However, there are different levels of body forging techniques. Normally, the lower tier body forging technique can only enhance the skin and bones, while the middle tier body forging technique can improve the tendons and bones. Of course, this can only be accomplished with the cultivator’s continuous cultivation, and for the cultivator to advance to the Dao Realm and condense the primordial spirit, the body would only be the minimum requirement. ”

The stronger the body of a cultivator, the more vigorous the blood essence, the stronger the primordial spirit will be. In addition, the risk of breaking through to the Dao Realm will be lower, and the foundation of the primordial spirit will often be related to the future advancement of one’s cultivation level until the thunder tribulation arrives. ”

“Thus, a ambitious cultivator, before advancing to the Dao Realm, would never allow his fleshly body to remain in the state of Altering Muscle and Bone Forging.”

Yang Junshan had already come tealization that he could guess what Taoist Eastflow truly wanted to say, but regarding the strengthening of his fleshly body, Yang Junshan was still unable to grasp a clear and systematic way, thus, Yang Junshan pretended to not understand at all and continued to humbly ask for guidance: “Then may I ask Senior, to advance to the Dao Realm, how appropriate is it to strengthen your fleshly body to what extent?”

Without even thinking about it, Taoist Eastflow replied: “It’s not good to change blood at the eighth step, but it’s best if I can reach the realm of Purification at the seventh step.”

Yang Junshan’s expression immediately changed. He had always valued the strengthening of the body, and had spent quite a bit of time on the secret body forging technique, but now that he had reached the fourth stage of the Altering Muscle Bone Forging technique, there was no problem at all. His internal organs had only been strengthened to the heart of his internal organs, the gall bladder, stomach, small intestine and all other internal organs.

As for Purification, to be honest, Yang Junshan’s fleshly body had already reached this realm, but because the strengthening of his five viscera and six organs were far from being completed, Yang Junshan had not yet activated this stage of strengthening.

With regards to the change in Yang Junshan’s expression, Taoist Eastflow seemed to have expected it and laughed: “How is it, are you scared?”

Yang Junshan honestly nodded his head, and said ashamedly: “Junior is a frog at the bottom of the well, and is only at the peak of the first four stages of Body Tempering, not even close to the seventh level of Purification. To think that he would dare peek at the Dao Realm despite being so shallow, you are truly arrogant, and extremely ashamed.”

Hearing this, the Taoist Eastflow laughed out loud, and said: “You don’t have to belittle yourself, it’s already good enough that you can strengthen your body to the perfection of the first four stages. As for reaching the realm of Purification, you need a high grade body forging technique as a legacy.”

Could a high-grade body forging technique do it?

The “Monarch Mountain Diagram” that he cultivated was alsigh-grade body forging technique, but the effect of this technique on the strengthening of his five viscera and six organs was minimal. Although he had already felt the realm of Purification, he still felt that forcefully opening the seventh level of Purification without having strengthened his five viscera to the perfection stage was still unreliable no matter how he looked at it.

Could it be that the secret body forging technique he trained in originated from an alien race?

Yang Junshan’s heart sank. In fact, he already had this suspicion in his heart, otherwise he wouldn’t have needed to spend time and effort to perfect the “six viscera brocade” and gather the “Five Viscera Atlas” inheritance.

From his point of view, the question of where to start the process of Purification and Blood Purification before one’s internal organs had been successfully refined was most likely related to the body forging technique that he had practiced.

Yang Junshan promptly asked the Taoist Eastflow for guidance: “Senior, may I ask, the strengthening of this junior’s body has always been confined within his internal organs, and it is very rare for it to enter my body, thus I am unable to further discuss about Purification, and am unsure of what to do?”

The moment Yang Junshan’s words fell, the Taoist Eastflow became silent foare moment, and the atmosphere between the two of them immediately became somewhat awkward.

Yang Junshan thought that his inquiry had touched upon Flying School’s secret. He was about to open his mouth to apologize, but unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he saw that Taoist Eastflow was actually also looking at him in astonishment.

“Elder...”

Yang Junshan was frightened by the Taoist Eastflow’s stare.

“You don’t know?”

Taoist Eastflow finally opened his mouth and spoke, his tone filled with doubt.

Yang Junshan did not understand, and immediately asked: “Know about what?”

“Altering Muscle and Bone Forging. After the body refining fourth level perfection, you can directly go over the realm of Purification and open the internal organs. You don’t need to care if the strengthening of the internal organs is complete or not.”

After Taoist Eastflow finished, he saw Yang Junshan’s dumbstruck expression and said: “It seems you really do not know.”

Yang Junshan wanted to say something, but when the words were about to reach his mouth, he swallowed them back and continued to concentrate on listening to the Taoist Eastflow: “The strengthening of the five viscera and six organs is extremely difficult, the cultivation world basically does not have complete inheritances regarding the strengthening of the five viscera and six viscera, there are even inheritances that are broken into pieces or left behind by self-exploration, but I have never heard of anyone capable of strengthening their five viscera and six viscera to the Perfection Stage, where most cultivators directly skipped these two stages and went through the Purification process.”

Yang Junshan felt that his mouth was a little dry and could not help but ask: “Then do these internal organs not need to be strengthened?”

“Why not? Not only is it there, it’s extremely important!”

The Taoist Eastflow explained: “It is precisely because it is too important that these two stages are the hardest to strengthen during the body forging process. Because of the lack of a complete strengthening inheritance, the cultivator either has a shallow level of intelligence to strengthen, or can only strengthen a few of the internal organs. Some of them are lucky and obtained some Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasureo refine into miracle medicines that can strengthen the internal organs, but there is not a single person in the cultivation world who can truly refine all of the internal organs to perfection.”

Yang Junshan immediately asked: “Could it be that even the Taoist ancestor cannot do it?”

Grand Taoist Dong Liu sneered: “If all my internal organs are strengthened to the Great Perfection Stage, why would I be afraid of a mere lightning tribulation?”

Yang Junshan momentarily stopped talking, but then heard from the Grand Taoist Dong Liu, “This old one’s luck is not bad. When I had just stepped into the cultivation world, there was a spiritual cavities in my body that coincidentally grew up above my kidneys, and with the help of some secret arts passed down by the sect, I had difficulty strengthening it to the peak of perfection. Afterwards, this old one did everything possible to find a type of natural spirit root, refined it into a special kind of Body Tempering Pellet, and then strengthened my stomach to the peak of perfection.

Just by raising the two organs of the kidney and stomach to perfection?

Especially when Yang Junshan saw Grand Taoist Dong Liu’s expression, which seemed to be a little proud, as if he was quite satisfied with his achievements in strengthening his internal organs, Yang Junshan felt that he had become especially messy.

There were gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, bladder, heart, internal organs, and eleven organs. It seemed that Yang Junshan himself had strengthened five of them to the Great Perfection Stage, and even his large intestine had been strengthened to the Great Perfection Stage. He wondered what kind of expression Yang Junshan would have if he were to inform Taoist Eastflow of this result.

Yang Junshan even thought that Taoist Eastflow might have directly turned him into a Body Refinement Pellet and swallowed it!

Yang Junshan unknowingly swallowed his saliva. Seeing Taoist Eastflow so complacent after strengthening the two organs to the perfection stage, he could almost determine the achievements of this cultivation world’s body forging technique on the five viscera and six organs. Thus, whether it was the “six viscera brocade” or the “Five Viscera Atlas”, both could not be said!

Yang Junshan composed himself and asked: “Senior, if I skip all of my internal organs and directly start Purification, won’t it affect the strengthening of my body as a whole?”

“I don’t know how to cleanse the marrow, but it’s hard to say if I can change my blood!”

Taoist Eastflow said helplessly, “Even though Purification isn’t an issue that’s being obstructed by one’s internal organs, opening the Purification barrier is extremely difficult!”

Was it difficult?

If Yang Junshan had not suppressed him again and again, his Purification would have already begun!

Wu, thinking back to the Immortal Root Spiritual Cauldron mentioned by the Taoist Eastflow, I think that when Yang Junshan first opened his cultivation, there waidden Spiritual Cauldron in his spine, could this be the reason?

Moreover, he also had a Spirit Aperture which he dared to use. Back when he was practising “six viscera brocade”, the first thing he opened was also his gallbladder cultivation, and he quickly reached the Great Perfection Stage. Could it be that it was also because of the Spirit Aperture?

A few thoughts quickly flashed through Yang Junshan’s mind, and he then asked: “Senior, since you don’t need to undergo the strengthening of your internal organs to not affect the Purification, how could it possibly affect the Blood Transformation?”
