Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 295: Chapter 236 Data Panel Refresh_2

Amid his blood boiling, he took out an entire bottle of Essence Yuan Pills, didn’t even look, and tossed his head back, swallowing ten Essence Yuan Pills.

After consuming the elixir pills, Zhao Sheng took out the Magic Array Stone Ball, disabling the Gravity Magic Array.

The moment the twentyfold gravity disappeared, he immediately felt relieved all over, his body felt light as if a slight step could lift him into the air.

In fact, with a little effort, he could easily jump up to ninety feet.

The potential of this physical body was so strong that even Zhao Sheng himself was shocked.

Zhao Sheng sat down cross-legged, allowing his stomach, voracious as a Taotie, to digest the Essence Yuan Pills.@@novelbin@@

He summoned the Hundred Lifetimes Book from his Divine Soul, opened the sixth page, and a data panel appeared before his mind:

Name: Zhao Qingyang (Zhao Sheng)

Life Span: 29/236

Realm: Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer, Half-step to God

Profession: Second Order Talisman Master, Second Order Alchemist, Second Order Artifact Refiner,

[Constitution:]Gold and Fire Dual Spirit Roots (Earth), Barbaric Ancient Battle Body (Earth)

[Talent:] Immortal Spirit Realm (impaired)

[Skills:]

Cultivation Technique: Golden Crow Burning Sky Technique (skilled), Star God Thousand Heart Technique (skilled), Qi Observing Skill (beginner), Little Cloud Realm Spirit Puppet Technique (mastered)…

Hundred Arts: Taoist Skill (skilled), talisman (mastered), alchemy (mastered), artifact refining (skilled)…

Before his reincarnation, Zhao Sheng randomly drew a profound-level skill: a mastered “Little Cloud Realm Spirit Puppet Technique”.

This was a unique artifact refining magic skill, more specifically, a special technique belonging to the category of refining spirit puppets.

Where exactly in the vast universe was Little Cloud Realm, and how many worlds away was it from Tianzhu Realm?

Zhao Sheng did not know, but he understood that Little Cloud Realm was probably a cultivation world where artifact refining was prevalent.

From the exquisite soul refining and artifact refining methods in the “Little Cloud Realm Spirit Puppet Technique”, it was clear that the level of artifact refining in that world was considerably higher than in Tianzhu Realm.

This profound-level drawing turned out to be a win for Zhao Sheng, as he not only learned a foreign language but also easily advanced to a Second Order Artifact Refiner.

Although he was significantly specialized as an artifact refiner, when a real Spiritual Puppet Artifact was placed before others, no one could deny that he was a Second Order Artifact Refiner.

Of course, his simultaneous practice in artifact refining was currently known only to him.

Being a thirty-year-old body refiner at the Foundation Establishment stage, along with being a Second Order Alchemist and Second Order Talisman Master was already shocking enough.

If he also revealed his title as a Second Order Artifact Refiner, he feared that Nascent Soul old freaks might come knocking on his door the next day, if not to take him as a disciple, then for live dissection.

Zhao Sheng dared not bet that they would come with good intentions, solely to take him as a disciple.

In Tianzhu Realm, body refiners at the Foundation Establishment stage were also known as Divinity Realm Body Refiners.

Above the Innate stage of martial arts is referred to as “Divinity”!

Body refiners at the Foundation Establishment stage, with the enhancement of Spirit Roots, are more than ten times stronger than Divine Communication Martial Artists.

Zhao Sheng was precisely at the Half-step to God stage.

In terms of physical prowess, he was far stronger than other body refiners at the Foundation Establishment stage.

However, regarding realm, he had yet to master the five senses; he was not yet a true Body Refiner.

The Immortal Martial Hall was personally established by Zhao Xuanjing six hundred years ago.

By then, he had just advanced to Golden Core and had joined the Ksitigarbha Sect for exactly half a cycle.

Living among the top ten major sects of the Central Continent, Zhao Xuanjing experienced a broadening of his vision, deeper than during his time on Taifu Mountain.

Back then, he deliberately exchanged for over a dozen body refining techniques from the Ksitigarbha Sect’s Scripture Cave and founded the Immortal Martial Hall.

This move was not only to pave a path of body refining for his family but also to stimulate and tap into the potential of the Zhao’s Mortal Clan.

You should know that the strength of Divine Communication Martial Artists was no less than those at Qi Refining Perfection; some exceptionally strong Divinity-reaching Grandmasters could even contend with Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Judging by the outcome, Zhao Xuanjing made the right move, as today Immortal Martial Hall is filled with native-born Innate stages; there are even more than a hundred who are at Half-step Divine Communication Martial Sect.

And the number of Divinity-reaching Grandmasters who could compete against Foundation Establishment Cultivators for more than a hundred rounds exceeds five.

Don’t think this is too exaggerated; considering just five or six “comparable to Foundation Establishment” Divinity-reaching Grandmasters emerged from over five million of the Zhao’s Mortal Clan.

This one in a million ratio is what’s truly astonishing, and the difficulty of martial arts can be seen from this alone.

“Heavenly Human Four Forms” is the principal Divine Communication Martial Arts practiced by Zhao Sheng, its origins lying in Ancient Buddhism before it was acquired by an ancestor from the Ksitigarbha Sect.

This unknown ancestor personally removed the overly devout aspects of the technique and merged it with the sect’s Body Refinement Techniques, thus creating “Heavenly Human Four Forms”.

This technique is divided into four major realms: “Body Phase, Heart Phase, Divine Phase, Dharma Phase”, corresponding to the realms of Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Divinity Transformation.

The Immortal Martial Hall only possesses the Body Phase section of Heavenly Human Four Forms, intricately divided into the Divine Communication of the five senses: “eyes, ears, mouth, nose, body”.

As a Body Refining Technique derived from Buddhist practices, Heavenly Human Four Forms has the unique feature of varying divine powers depending on the individual.

Take Zhao Sheng, for example, he had mastered “Spiritual Smell, Divine Eye, Taotie”, but was still lacking in the ear and body aspects.

If it were other Divine Communication Martial Artists, they might possess abilities like seeing in the dark, hearing over distances, and other superpowers.

…

After reviewing his personal data, Zhao Sheng put away his Hundred Lifetimes book and sent his Divine Sense into his storage bag. Then a grape-sized Geng Gold Pearl flew out, spinning around, and finally hovered three feet in the air in front of him.

Then, he silently operated his technique, and the spiritual power in his core started “boiling”, turning into a pale purple sea of fire.

“Purple Sun Fire, arise!”

Following a low shout, a purple “lotus” suddenly rose within the pale purple sea of fire,

The moment the Fire Lotus appeared, it abruptly flew out of the dantian, through layers of skin and flesh, emerging below Zhao Sheng’s navel and gently flew under the Geng Gold Pearl, enveloping it.

Zhao Sheng formed a Golden Crow Seal with his hands, and the Purple Sun Spiritual Power in his body surged, following the line of spiritual power connected to the Purple Sun Fire.

With a thought, his Divine Sense stirred, and spiritual power poured into the fire, causing the Purple Sun Fire to explosively bloom into a huge fire lotus about ten feet in diameter. The petals of the fire lotus slowly spun, releasing an intimidatingly high temperature.

In the center of the Fire Lotus, the Geng Gold Pearl gently pulsed. Under the intense heat of the Purple Sun Fire, its surface gradually shone with a brilliant blue light, as dazzling as the stars.

An hour later, Zhao Sheng was sweaty, with nearly half of his core’s spiritual power consumed.

At that moment, the Geng Gold Pearl within the Purple Sun Fire Lotus had noticeably shrunk significantly, the wisps of Geng Metal Qi were trapped by the Fire Lotus, swirling around the pearl.

Just then, Zhao Sheng’s eyes blazed with Divine Light, he spread the Golden Crow Seal and suddenly changed his hands into the Lotus Seal.

Instantly, the Purple Sun Fire Lotus swiftly shrank to the size of a fist,

Then, the Purple Sun Fire Lotus, wrapped in Geng Metal Qi, quickly retracted back into Zhao Sheng’s abdomen like a weary bird returning to the forest, delved deep into his dantian, and finally merged into the Purple Sun Spiritual Power.

The moment the Geng Metal Qi was freed from its binds, Zhao Sheng hooked it with his spiritual power, slowly drawing it out from the dantian, transporting it to his right thigh bone, and began refining it into the bone using a secret technique.

Half an hour later, the last wisp of Geng Metal Qi was completely refined, and by then, the surface of Zhao Sheng’s right thigh bone exhibited spots of cold light, within which faint Sword Intent was clearly overflowing.

Over the next ten years, Zhao Sheng successively transformed nearly seventy bones such as limbs, hands, feet, ribs, and breastbones into Geng Metal Sword Bones.

Only less than twenty Geng Gold Pearls remained, but only one-third of the Geng Metal Sword Bones had been refined.

Geng Metal, a high-end treasure material, is rare and sought after; who knows how long it will take to fully refine the Geng Metal Sword Bones.

Unable to help himself, Zhao Sheng sighed, waving his hand as a beam of Geng Metal Sword Light burst out instantaneously from his palm.

In an instant, the Sword Light fell upon the cast iron ground, leaving behind a deep, pitch-black hole with its edges smooth as glass.

He released his Divine Sense into the hole and discovered that the hole was over half a foot deep, considering the thickness of the cast iron was over three inches.

Seeing this, a smile finally appeared on Zhao Sheng’s face.

“Geng Metal Sword Bone is indeed powerful, making all the effort worthwhile.”

Moments later, Zhao Sheng put away the Geng Gold Pearls, flipped a Magic Array Stone Ball single-handedly, reactivated the Gravity Magic Array, and set it to twenty-three times gravity.

Then, he took out two Mid-grade Fire Spirit Stones from the storage bag, held them in his hand, silently operated a mysterious skill, and began extracting the spiritual energy from the spirit stones, refining and merging it into the Purple Sun Spiritual Power.

…

A year later, the Geng Gold Pearls were exhausted, eighty-three Geng Metal Sword Bones were refined, and he successfully broke through to the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer.

That day, Zhao Sheng, sweaty from exertion, walked out of the Overweight Room.

Just then, the elder Jade Token on his waist suddenly began flashing urgently.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately sent his Divine Sense into it, and a message instantly appeared.

“Tonight, late afternoon, Unity Hall, the elders have a meeting, you must attend! Left by Zhao Dexuan.”

Zhao Dexuan is the current Clan Leader of the Xinglong Zhao Family, a Perfect Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

This Clan Leader, who advocates Governance Without Action in managing the family, is particularly adept at playing it safe, essentially a ‘good-natured’ type of leader.”

“Clan Leader, to think that I was notified this time! It seems something significant must have arisen in the family again. Could it be…”

Zhao Sheng’s complexion changed as he suddenly thought of something.
