“l do not know when I will be able to meet you and demonstrate the knowledge I have gained. I want you to know that I have been moving forward all these years, never stopping, following the teachings!’
Reflecting on his lifelong journey, it all started because of Xuan Yi, his mentor. Although he was aware that Xuan Yi had plans and reasons for staying hidden all these years, the deep respect in his heart never wavered.
Once again lifting his head, Jian Wushuang suppressed his emotions.
“Go on, young one. After you gather all these origin sources, you can come find me. This old man still has some insights on the Dao of forging,” said the old man with goat horns, putting away the precious treasures and disappearing within the grand hall.
Jian Wushuang flashed away, leaving the grand hall, only to bump into Wan Xing, who had also been teleported out.
They met without exchanging many words, just nodding slightly in acknowledgment.
His ranking indeed surprised Wan Xing!
It seemed there was another formidable opponent. Wan Xing sighed inwardly. However, with his imitation Eternal Treasures and his mastery of skills, he was confident.
Hmm!
Among the half-step Emperors, he was standing at the peak.
They passed each other, Jian Wushuang heading to the adjacent treasure hall, and Wan Xing leaving the City Lord’s Mansion.
Thunk!
Stepping into the Treasure Hall, a familiar figure and a warm smile greeted his eyes.
“Haha, young man, you’re a bit late this time. That spatial treasure has already been exchanged by someone else,” Qiuhuang laughed heartily.
He seemed eager to see Jian Wushuang regretful, but he was disappointed. Jian Wushuang just sighed lightly and didn’t seem to care too much. nove(l)bi(n.)com
“Huh? You don’t seem to care at all!” Qiuhuang said, puzzled.
But Jian Wushuang just smiled and replied, “Enlightenment cannot be forced. If I can’t obtain it, it’s simply not meant to be.”
That treasure didn’t hold much attraction for him at the moment; it wasn’t a big loss.
The strength of the physical body was related to the divine body. At that time, MO Long possessed the Eye of the Candle Dragon, and with the enhancement from the divine body and the perfection of his physical body, he attained such immense physical power.
Jian Wushuang understood that Qiuhuang was being cryptic. He took the initiative to inquire, “Senior, you mentioned that it takes a thousand-fold enhancement of the divine body to achieve a top-grade physical body. For a top-grade body, how much enhancement and how many times is needed?”
Qiuhuang squinted his eyes, a longing expression on his face. “To be honest, back in my days, I only achieved a top-grade physical body. Many powerful cultivators only reach that level. To have a physical body comparable to a
Innate Treasure is already remarkable. However, there are those unparalleled Grand Yan Immortals who, in pursuit of perfection, elevated their bodies to the supreme-grade level. It’s hard to quantify the treasures needed. Just
passing the hurdle of the divine body alone deterred countless Grand Yan
Immortals.’
“Those truly capable of condensing their physical bodies to the supreme-grade level need treasures enhanced by 10,000 times. Without 10,000-fold enhanced treasures, no matter how many resources are poured in, it won’t work.’
“The utmost limit of the physical body ends here. After becoming an Emperor, one can have avatars outside the body. There’s no way to further enhance it unless through reconstruction!” Qiuhuang added cautiously, refraining from sounding overly confident.
He still had some distance from the peak of the universe. Although he was a bit ahead of other Emperors, it was only by a small margin.
“10,000-fold!” Jian Wushuangs initial interest waned instantly. However, his expression subtly changed at the mention of reconstruction.
An Emperor could reconstruct their physical body?
It was the first time he heard of it, but the concept was too remote for him to dwell on it further.
“Well, do you still have the confidence to cultivate?” Qiuhuang deliberately taunted.
Jian Wushuangs expression regained its calmness. He replied calmly, “This junior’s divine body is not even 2,000 times enhanced. The gap is too significant.”
“Haha, I told you, this supreme-grade physical body isn’t something an ordinary person can cultivate. It’s reserved for those monstrous geniuses!”
Monstrous geniuses!
Jian Wushuang wanted to retort, “Am I not monstrous enough?”
He was already this formidable as a Nine Revolutions. The crucial point was that his room for improvement was exceptionally vast, especially his origin source. It had already grown immensely, but there was still tremendous room for enhancement.
One should know that many Grand Yan Immortals had already elevated their origin source Dao to the ninth layer, and some even had almost perfected their origin source Dao, reaching peak-level power.
Alternatively, there were second-grade special origin source Dao. Once perfected, they had the power of a Dao Lord..
