“Young Master, how is it? Has someone from the Sunset Sect come?” Old Ma asked curiously.
“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded.
“So is Young Master going to the Sunset Sect?”
Jiang Yuan laughed: “No, I am not!”
“Ah? Why not?”
“Because the disciples of the Sunset Sect don’t appreciate my talent! ”
“What?” Old Ma was surprised, and then quickly comforted: “Young Master, it’s okay! Your talent can take you anywhere! If the Sunset Sect doesn’t want you, it’s their loss. There is also the Moonfall Sect!”
Jiang Yuan responded with an ambiguous smile.
“Uncle Ma, you don’t have to comfort me. I am not that fragile! I have more confidence in myself than anyone else.”
After saying that, he waved his hand: “Uncle Ma, I am going to practice now!” Then he walked straight towards the backyard.
Seeing that Jiang Yuan was not pretending, Old Ma finally set his mind at ease.
“That’s good! I also believe that the Young Master will surpass anyone else, and he is not at all inferior to Zhao Li from Dashun Prefecture!”
“Zhao Li? You are underestimating Young Master!” Gu MO spoke, his eyes looking at the departing Jiang Yuan revealed a burning battle intent.
A few days ago.
He had a fight with Jiang Yuan after he completely understood his sword intent.
At that time, he thought that after understanding the sword intent, he was an invincible existence under the Body Forging Realm’s ninth level.
But after fighting with Jiang Yuan, he understood what it meant to break ten thousands of tricks with one force.
Every time Jiang Yuan’s heavy sword swept to his sword body, his body’s qi and blood would churn, and it would take several breaths for him to calm down.
Under such circumstances, even if he relied on sword intent to take the initiative and stood on an invincible position, Jiang Yuan also stood on an invincible position.
He simply could not break Young Master’s defense.
And speaking of endurance, how could he compare to him?
Condensing sword intent requires a lot of mental power, while Jiang Yuan just has to stand still and he could easily resist any of his attacks.
A few days later.
Sunset Sect.
There are magnificent buildings here, with spiritual fog flowing and immortal cranes calling.
There is also a surging purple cloud and golden light reaching thousands of feet.
An elder with white eyebrows and beard stood on the edge of a cliff, with a surging sea of clouds under his feet.
“Junior Sister Gongsun, what gains have you made during this trip down the mountain?”
Gongsun Zhi nodded slightly, with a smile on her face.
“The gain is not bad, Zhao Li is indeed a child with extraordinary talent, I have already explained it to his parents, he will cultivate in the sect in the future.” “That’s good!” The elder nodded.
Then he asked, “What about the other one? Isn’t there also a genius in Lin’an County, Dali Prefecture?”
Gongsun Zhi shook her head after hearing this: “He can’t make it!” “Oh? Why not?”
“His past was spent lingering in the pleasure district, wasting time.”
“So what’s the harm in this? I was even more reckless when I was young. I once stayed in a brothel for several months.”
“This is different!” Gongsun Zhi shook her head: “He can’t be compared to you, brother.”
The elder laughed: “Let’s not talk about this, what about the others? It is said that he went from Body Forging Realm Level 3 to Level 7 in just one month, this speed shows that the talent of his physical body is very strong, which will be extremely beneficial to his breakthrough in the future.”
Gongsun Zhi said: “I don’t know if it was one month, the one who reported was just an outer sect disciple, and he might not be able to clearly see the person’s real strength at that time, but there is one thing I don’t like!”
“Which point?” The elder asked, confused.
“He has taken the Organ Refining Pill, and it is only the Organ Refining Pill for the outer sect disciples. With this, his foundation must be unstable.”
Then Gongsun Zhi went on to say: “And there is also the most important point. His Spirit, Energy, and Soul level are too average, he can’t be compared with my disciple Zhao Li at all. In his case, it would take too long to cultivate to the Spirit Cultivation level, unity of spirit, energy and soul is also a hurdle. For a variety of reasons, he can’t be considered a genius!”
The elder shook his head: “Well, forget about it! Since you have judged it, let it be then!”
“Yes, I told him that if he is interested, he can come to our Sunset Sect to apprentice by himself.”
“That’s good too! Heaven helps those who help themselves, we have given him a path to continue his cultivation!”
The elder nodded slightly, very satisfied with Gongsun Zhi’s arrangement.
Meanwhile.

Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
“Finally made a breakthrough! Is this the feeling of the Spirit Cultivation level?”
At this point, Jiang Yuan felt that his mind was empty, and his five senses had greatly improved.
Even though he was inside the room, all the flowers, plants, and trees in the Zhenyuan Escort Agency were clearly appearing in his mind.
When the breeze blew, even the falling leaves on the ground could be clearly presented in his mind.
More importantly, Jiang Yuan felt that his spirit energy was becoming more and more full.
Being nurtured by his physical body, he could feel his spirit energy growing and maturing constantly.
He then slowly closed his eyes again.
He carefully observed the changes occurring within his spiritual platform.
After a while…
The corner of his mouth curved up into a smile, a look of delight spread across his face.
Many realizations dawned in his heart.
Nourish the soul, nourish the soul!
Using the physical body as a vessel, what’s being nourished is the essence and spirit.
This is what it means to nourish the soul, I understand now!
No wonder the previous eight realms focused on refining the physical body, only a robust physical body can nourish the spiritual platform, in return, foster the essence and spirit, allowing them to infinitely enlarge.
The physical body and essence and spirit are interconnected and inseparable.
The stronger the physical body, the more efficient it is to nourish the soul.
This is precisely what nourishing the soul means!
At this realm, there’s no need for practice, you just need to sit and watch the clouds drift and the sun and moon rise and fall.
With the passing of time, naturally one can nourish their essence and spirit to their peak.
Since the physical body acts as the vessel, perhaps the upper limit of the essence and spirit is tied to the strength of the body.
In this regard, the Sunset Sect seemed to have gone down a wrong route, overlooking the importance of the physical body.
The Sunset Sect is no more than this.
But at this moment, a trace of curiosity surfaced in Jiang Yuan’s heart.
He wondered why the Sunset Sect would overlook such a crucial point.
The way of cultivation is expected to build from the ground up like a skyscraper.
The foundation is incredibly important.
If the physical path is so critical, why would they ignore it?
In his heart, a myriad of questions arose, all without answers.
The Sunset Sect is not a minor sect or school, they have the power to appoint an outer sect disciple as the County Honour, their influence must be enormous.
Such an influential entity, must have a long heritage.
In principle, it’s unforeseeable that they would overlook this point.
After a moment, Jiang Yuan shook his head.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it!
Maybe I’ll find out in the future.
Afterwards, the gloom in his heart cleared, and his mood brightened.
The body path is immensely important.
[Name]: Jiang Yuan
[Realm]: Body Forging Realm, 8th Level (Soul Cultivation)
[Innate Fate]: Longevity Never Ends (Purple), Body of Dragon & Tiger (Blue),
Outstanding Comprehension (Green)
[Qi Yun Power]: 82 Strands [Luck Seed]: None
Eighty-two strands now!
It’s picking up speed!
Just need another nine days, and I can upgrade the remaining innate fate once again.
At that time, my comprehension will surely increase dramatically!
Excitement suddenly welled up within Jiang Yuan’s heart.
Subsequently, Jiang Yuan pushed open the door to his room.
Uncle Ma and Gu MO were in the courtyard, refining their bodies.
“Uncle Ma, Gu MO, come with me, we’re going out to relax!”
“Young master, where are we going to relax?” Old Ma asked curiously, dropping the stone lock he was holding.
“Yunyan Pavilion!”
“Ah! The brothel?” Old Ma’s eyes widened in shock, and he hurriedly protested, “H…h…how can we go to such a place?”
Seeing Old Ma’s nervous expression, Jiang Yuan could not help but smile.
“Uncle Ma, you’re not telling me you’ve never been there, are you?”
“W…w…what are you talking about! I’ve become a seasoned veteran through numerous hardships, how could I have not been there!” “That’s perfect then, come and relax with me!”
“T…t…this is not appropriate…” Old Ma stuttered reluctantly.
At this moment, Gu MO sheathed his sword.
With a calm expression, he said, “Good, I too, am curious about what these pleasure quarters described in books are like!”
“Well…sigh! Then I’ll accompany you two!”
On the road, Jiang Yuan was in a relaxed and content state.
Entering the soul cultivation level, all I need to do is lie down to cultivate essence and spirit. This kind of leisure and relaxation is rare.
I might as well go and check out the Yunyan Pavilion from my previous life’s memories. My past life frequented that place quite a bit!
At this moment, Jiang Yuan is also quite curious..
