Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 106: The Embryo of the Indestructible True Body

At this moment, upon hearing Kong Nian's words, Jiang Yuan's heart shook violently, causing waves to surge.

The Eight-Nine Profound Art!

How could this be? Isn't this a fictitious technique from ancient myths and legends?

Then, he remembered the Heavenly Circulation Star Chart, and became even more lost in thought.

Could there be such a coincidence in the world?

Just then, Kong Nian said, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Yuan snapped back to reality and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, just thinking about some things!"

Kong Nian smiled and asked, "Do you know who this technique is from?"

Jiang Yuan was surprised and said, "Isn't it from the predecessors?"

"I don't have that kind of insight!" Kong Nian shook his head. "The foundation of this technique comes from the most outstanding genius in the history of the Tian Shou Peak. His insight is unparalleled, no one can compare! He has created many techniques, and several of the supreme-level Tian Jie techniques in the Tai Xuan Sect today are also from his hands."

Then he handed the ancient book in his hand to Jiang Yuan and said, "Take a look for yourself! This technique is a Body Refining technique with an extremely high upper limit, and its lofty intention is truly breathtaking!"

"Unfortunately, my talent is limited, and even if I devote my whole life to this technique, I won't be able to achieve a breakthrough in transformation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan's curiosity was immediately piqued.

He took the ancient book and saw the name of the technique written on it.

The Indestructible True Body.

What an imposing name, Jiang Yuan thought to himself.

The names of most techniques are related to their intentions.

If the intention is high, then the grade of the technique will naturally not be low.

He slowly flipped through the pages and read them one by one.

In front of him, He Mingyuan saw this scene.

His fingers unconsciously turned white.

Although he looked down on this technique, in his eyes, the path of the physical body was just a small path in the shade. Only the path of the divine soul was the path to heaven.

But this object represented Kong Nian's lifelong effort.

To pass on his lifelong effort to someone else meant that this person held an irreplaceable position in his heart, beyond anyone else!

Thinking of this, his heart was in turmoil, unable to express it in words.

For so many years, he had been respectful and meticulous.

For what?

Just for the position of the first seat of the Tian Shou Peak.

Kong Nian had reached this age, and his time was running out.

In three to five years, or maybe ten years, he would completely pass away.

At that time, a new first seat would undoubtedly be born on the Tian Shou Peak.

Given the current decline of the Tian Shou Peak, in his eyes, there was no one else who could take on the position of the first seat except him.

Although the Tian Shou Peak was somewhat declining now, it was still one of the seven veins of the Tai Xuan Sect.

Being able to become the first seat of the Tian Shou Peak would undoubtedly allow his cultivation path to go further.

Based on his current cultivation in the Spirit Sea Realm, if he wanted to break through to the Divine Bridge in the future, without the support of the Tian Shou Peak, he wouldn't even have a single percent of confidence in his heart.

But if he could become the first seat of the Tian Shou Peak, in his heart, this confidence would at least increase to fifty percent.

This is the difference.

However, the appearance of Jiang Yuan today completely shattered the illusion in his heart.

He knew that although his cultivation level was slightly higher than Jiang Yuan's, in terms of talent, he was far inferior to Jiang Yuan.

Moreover, Jiang Yuan had a very strong physical body, which was suitable for inheriting Kong Nian's mantle.

In this situation, what competitive advantage did he have?

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but clench his fists.

But he dared not, and could not.

In the presence of such a great cultivator like Kong Nian, any unusual behavior would be noticed by him.

Just at this moment.

Jiang Yuan slowly exhaled a breath of impurity.

He also had some new understanding of this technique.

This ancient book also recorded the ideas, origins, and insights of that genius in the past.

In the eyes of that genius, the change of eras was the calamity of each era.

Therefore, he came up with a rough plan.

Using the power of calamity to refine the body, refining the physical body into an unparalleled existence, and ultimately surviving countless calamities.

After having this idea, that genius devoted himself to it, spending several months.

Finally, he constructed the general steps of Body Refining.

However, he got stuck at the first step!

Because the power of calamity was too elusive.

He had never heard of anyone who had mastered the power of calamity.

Until he thought of the thunder tribulation that the great cultivators in ancient times attracted when they broke through.

He suddenly had some enlightenment in his heart. In the thunder tribulation, there must be the power of calamity.

Only by breaking through the tribulation could one be reborn and make further progress.

Based on this idea, he found a substitute for the first level of Body Refining in this technique, which was the Wind and Thunder Sand.

This substance only appeared occasionally on nights of wind and thunder, and within the thunder, there would be a trace of the power of calamity.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan also thought of the legends he had seen before.

In ancient times, before the connection between heaven and earth was severed.

The laws of heaven were more complete than they are now, and when great cultivators broke through, they would attract the baptism of thunder tribulation.

Under the baptism of thunder tribulation, about half of them would perish.

In the ever-changing era of today, the rules of heaven have also changed. Since the connection between heaven and earth was severed, thunder tribulations no longer occur.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan sighed slightly as he held this book on the Immortal Body that could withstand countless calamities.

"Unfortunately, there is no thunder tribulation in this era. In my opinion, the best way to cultivate this technique should be to attract thunder tribulation for Body Tempering."

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Kong Nian also shook his head and sighed, "I had thought of this before, but unfortunately, it's not the right time."

"In this era, no matter what, thunder tribulations will not be attracted. For cultivators, it is also a good thing! At least it will reduce the situations where they turn into ashes under thunder tribulations!"

"But for this Body Refining technique, we can only find substitutes."

"I have the results of my experiments later. Currently, I can only cultivate up to the third level. The path ahead will need you to explore!"

"If you can truly reach the intended level, perhaps you can surpass all weapons and surpass the strength of all things in the world with your mortal body!"

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Senior, rest assured, this technique suits me well. I will definitely not let it be buried in my hands."

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, a smile appeared on Kong Nian's face.

On the side, He Mingyuan witnessed this scene, feeling a mix of emotions.

After passing on all his lifelong efforts to him, the next step should be to accept him as a disciple, right?

However, the subsequent development did not go as he had expected.

Kong Nian chatted with Jiang Yuan for a few moments, then told him to go back and focus on his cultivation. Without sufficient realm, he wouldn't be able to cultivate this technique to a profound level.

Cultivation realm is the foundation of everything.

Before leaving, Jiang Yuan thought for a moment, then said to Kong Nian, "Senior, there's something I want to tell you. Whether you believe me or not, I have to tell you!"

Seeing Jiang Yuan's serious expression, Kong Nian waved his hand.

In an instant, the two of them were isolated from the outside world. Kong Nian said, "Speak. Besides the two of us, no one else can hear what you're about to say!"

Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "Three years from now, the situation in Qianyuan Country will be set. They will mobilize the entire country's strength to attack the mountains and destroy the temples, trampling over the sects. We will definitely lose!"

Kong Nian sighed softly, "Actually, we have long been prepared for this outcome, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. We only have three years left!"

"Why not mention retreat?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Kong Nian shook his head, "It's not that simple!"

Then he waved his hand, "You go back! Focus on your cultivation. As you said, you only have three years of peace!"

As he finished speaking, he broke the isolation around them.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan didn't say anything more and took his leave.

On the way back.

Shu Xiaoxiao said, "Young Master, I feel that He Mingyuan has hostility towards you!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, "That's natural. He is Kong Nian's direct disciple. Seeing his master pass on all his lifelong efforts to me, he can't help but feel dissatisfied. Extreme individuals might even resort to betraying their teacher and destroying their ancestors!"

"Otherwise, why do you think he didn't appear when I came to Tian Shou Peak last time, but showed up in time this time?"

"This is not a coincidence!"

"Ah?" Shu Xiaoxiao was surprised, "Young Master, should we remind Senior Kong Nian?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and shook his head, "Don't underestimate Senior Kong Nian. Haven't you heard a saying?"

"An old person becomes cunning! Senior Kong Nian has lived for hundreds of years, his heart is like a clear mirror!"

"He sees everything, playing tricks in front of him would only make us a laughingstock!"

At the same time.

Kong Nian on the mountain peak heard the conversation between Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao below, nodded slightly, and then glanced at He Mingyuan, sighing softly.

He Mingyuan was startled, "Master? What's wrong?"

Kong Nian shook his head, "Nothing, just a bit disappointed."

Hearing this, He Mingyuan was confused, but seeing Kong Nian's expression, he didn't dare to speak again.

After returning to Tian Zhu Peak, Jiang Yuan went to Gu Mo's residence.

With the arrangement made by Wang Zhi Shi last time, Gu Mo successfully entered the inner sect.

Officially becoming an inner disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect.

Now the residence he lived in was not far from Jiang Yuan.

About one or two kilometers away.

"Greetings, Young Master!"

Gu Mo pushed open the gate of the residence and saw Jiang Yuan standing in front of him.

"How is it? Are you getting used to it?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Gu Mo nodded, "It's good. Living alone, I feel more at ease."

Shu Xiaoxiao said, "So you mean, the young master and I disturbed you before?"

He paused for a moment and shook his head repeatedly, "How could that be!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, don't tease Gu Mo. Don't you know him? He can hardly speak a few words in half a day!"

Gu Mo also smiled and said, "The young master understands me!"

He looked at Jiang Yuan's figure, his eyes filled with gratitude.

If it weren't for Jiang Yuan, he would never have had the opportunity to come this far and embark on the path of cultivation.

Not to mention becoming an inner disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect, achieving the feat of an ordinary person ascending to the heavens.

If it weren't for Jiang Yuan, he might have long become a frozen corpse in the wind and snow, unable to avenge his parents' death.

Jiang Yuan looked around the courtyard, which was incredibly desolate and quiet.

So he said, "Gu Mo, you should go and invite a few maidservants. Otherwise, it's too lonely here!"

"Besides, you should focus on your cultivation instead of doing everything yourself, which will only delay your progress!"

Shu Xiaoxiao nodded as well, "Yes! The young master has me to take care of him! But you're different!"

Gu Mo looked at the two of them and relaxed, saying, "I'm still used to being alone. Having more people around would make me feel restrained!"

"Ah!" Jiang Yuan shook his head and sighed, no longer trying to persuade him.

A flash of light appeared in his hand, and twenty medium-grade spirit stones floated in the air.

"Take these and cultivate well!"

Gu Mo was stunned by this scene, then shook his head repeatedly, "Young master, please take them back! How can I continue to take your blood?"

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "Gu Mo, are you still my bodyguard?"

"Of course!"

"In that case, have you ever heard of a bodyguard not being paid?"

Gu Mo was taken aback.

Jiang Yuan continued, "Moreover, you are only at the second level of the Meridian Opening Realm. How can you protect me?"

"These spirit stones are your payment for protecting me!"

"Think about it, in the future, I will definitely encounter many strong enemies on my cultivation path. If you protect me, you will undoubtedly face great danger!"

Jiang Yuan looked at him and said, "Accept them! I don't lack these resources!"

Gu Mo reached out and took ten medium-grade spirit stones, then said, "Young master, as you said, these ten stones will be my payment! You can take back the rest!"

"You have already shown me too much kindness, and I can't bear it."

Jiang Yuan no longer insisted and shook his head slightly, "Alright then! Focus on your cultivation!"

"Yes!"

After leaving Gu Mo's mansion, Jiang Yuan briefly glanced at his storage ring.

Then he calculated his current wealth, converting the spirit stones, and found that he only had a little over 11,000 low-grade spirit stones left.

As for other items, they were all very useful resources.

For example, the small teleportation talisman, a life-saving item whose price was immeasurable if sold at auction.

It would start with the calculation of high-grade spirit stones.

There was also the mysterious small bone given by Lu Qingshan, full of endless secrets. He had only grasped a little bit of it, but his speed had already increased by fifty percent.

If he could completely comprehend the mysteries within, the price would be even more incalculable.

He was about to go back when he thought about it and headed towards Liu Jie's mansion.

Since he entered the inner sect, he had never visited him.
