Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Hongmeng Body Refining Technique

These words caused Xiao Xi’er to pause for a moment, and with a snort, she fell silent.

Inside the Immortal Law Pavilion, Xiao Yan’s eyes were immediately drawn to the countless floating Immortal Techniques, and he couldn’t help but feel astonished.

So many Immortal Techniques!

Surely there must be some that match his physique?

“Please place your hand on the Stone Platform in front of you.”

A misty female voice sounded in his ear.

“Hmm?”

Xiao Yan glanced around but saw no one; after all these years, he was somewhat accustomed to odd occurrences.

“I am the Guardian Spirit of the Immortal Law Pavilion.”

The ethereal voice continued to echo in his ears: “According to the rules, every new disciple who joins our Heavenly Dao Sect can select one Immortal Technique.”

“If you wish to choose for yourself, you may freely pick any Immortal Technique scroll. If you would like me to choose for you, please place your hand on the Stone Stele in front of you.”

“Guardian Spirit? Is this the legendary spirit of the sacred artifact that Xi’er mentioned? Guardian Spirit, can you tell me why my physique is incapable of cultivation?” After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yan asked.

“Place your hand on the Stone Stele, and everything will be revealed.” The misty voice resonated again.

“Alright, I appreciate your help, Senior!”

Saying that, Xiao Yan slowly placed his hand on the Stone Stele in front of him.

Soon, a gentle wave of energy emanated from the Stone Stele, and Xiao Yan felt his body tremble, followed by a warm current flowing within him.

“Guardian Spirit, what exactly is wrong with my physique?” Xiao Yan cautiously asked, filled with extreme tension.

“Your physique is an extremely rare Heaven Abandoned Body,” the ethereal female voice resounded in Xiao Yan’s mind.

Boom!

It was as if a thunderclap struck out of the blue; Xiao Yan’s brain buzzed, and a look of sorrow washed over his face.

“Heaven Abandoned Body!” Xiao Yan stood in shock, momentarily lost in thought.

Although he didn’t know what a Heaven Abandoned Body truly meant, he could tell from the name alone that it was not good news!

Abandoned by Heaven!

Had even the heavens forsaken him?

“The so-called Heaven Abandoned Body means that Heaven has forgotten your existence, resulting in the absence of a Dantian, making it impossible for you to refine Qi,” the Guardian Spirit’s voice continued.

Xiao Yan forced a bitter smile, “Is there any way to restore my Dantian?”

“Unless you obtain the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir to live anew, reforge your body, or have a Dao Prover reverse your destiny and reshape your Dantian, even then, your cultivation speed will be a thousand or ten thousand times slower than others,” the ethereal female voice echoed once more.

Upon hearing this, a hint of despair appeared on Xiao Yan’s face.

For he had never even heard of the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir or a Dao Prover, making it impossible for him to imagine what kind of Realm those beings belonged to.

“Could it be that I’ll never be able to cultivate in my lifetime?””Am I destined to be crushed under Liu Yanran’s feet for my whole life?” Xiao Yan said unwillingly.

“No, the temporary inability to repair your Dantian does not mean you cannot cultivate; it’s merely a matter of whether you can endure the pain that ordinary people cannot withstand,” the Guardian Spirit’s voice continued.

“Can I cultivate?” A hint of light flickered in Xiao Yan’s eyes, and he then declared firmly, “As long as I can cultivate, as long as I can become stronger, I can endure any pain!”

“Since that’s the case, there is an Immortal Technique that is most suitable for your cultivation,” the Guardian Spirit continued.

Then, a scroll appeared before Xiao Yan.

“What is this Immortal Technique?” Xiao Yan asked in confusion.

“This is the Body Refining Technique ‘Hongmeng Body Refining Technique: Body Refining Chapter.'”

“Hongmeng Body Refining Technique?” Xiao Yan murmured to himself.

“Because you have no Dantian, you cannot refine Qi, but this results in the best body refining constitution. If you successfully practice this technique, it will sufficiently compensate for the flaws of your Dantian and even exceed Qi Refiners of the same tier,” the Guardian Spirit explained.

“Really?” Xiao Yan’s eyes widened in astonishment as he exclaimed.

“Naturally. However, body refining requires enduring extreme physical torment, comparable to a thousand cuts and ten thousand slices, in order to achieve an incredibly strong body. Can you endure that?” the Guardian Spirit asked.

“I can endure it; no matter what pain it is, I’m willing to accept it!” Xiao Yan took a deep breath and nodded earnestly. As long as I can cultivate, what does mere physical pain count for?

“Thank you, senior Guardian Spirit!” Xiao Yan expressed his gratitude solemnly, reaching out to tightly grasp the scroll.

Liu Yanran, three years from now, I will definitely defeat you!

Outside the Immortal Law Pavilion, Xiao Xi’er fixed her gaze on Su Bai.

“If anything happens to Brother Xiao Yan, I’ll hold you accountable!”

“Please trust in my strength. This world is vast, and there are many forces stronger than the Lingxiao Sect and the Yuntian Sect!”

Her eyes were filled with a strong warning, and her words caused Su Bai to nod in agreement.

“You are right; this world is indeed vast, and the Lingxiao Sect and the Yuntian Sect are nothing significant.”

Then, Su Bai shifted his tone and smiled amicably.

“But, regarding any sect stronger than my Heavenly Dao Sect, I’m sorry to say I haven’t heard of one.”

“What do you mean by that?” Xiao Xi’er frowned and said coldly.

“What do I mean? I don’t know, but a sixteen-year-old Foundation Establishment, unprecedented in Great Zhao—I’m curious what you want so close to my disciple?”

At this point, Su Bai suddenly raised his head, a teasing smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“You… have seen through my cultivation level?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xi’er’s pupils constricted sharply as her gaze fixed intently on Su Bai.

She possesses a supreme treasure; without taking action, it’s impossible for anyone from the outside to see through her cultivation level! On ordinary days, she has been disguising herself as someone at the Qi Refining Third Layer, not wanting to draw too much attention. But now, someone has unexpectedly revealed her secret!

“I not only see through your cultivation base, but I also have a question: why do a heir from an ancient family only have bodyguards at the Nascent Soul Realm?” Su Bai’s gaze drifted to a certain spot in the void, his expression holding a hint of a smile.

Deep within the clouds, a shadow froze under that gaze, suddenly becoming rigid. Discovered!

Xiao Xi’er instinctively took a step back, looking at Su Bai in shock. Not only had he seen through her, but he also figured out Uncle Ying! Moreover, he knew she hailed from an ancient family! Who exactly is this person? Could he perhaps be a successor from the same ancient family?

“Isn’t the Nascent Soul Realm enough?” Xiao Xi’er asked, lowering her voice.

This person has such an audacious tone, calling it merely the Nascent Soul Realm!

After all, a Nascent Soul is a figure of ancestral level in the cultivation world, capable of supporting a super sect! Even the strongest figures in top five hundred sects like the Lingxiao Sect and the Yuntian Sect are merely at the Nascent Soul level!

“Hehe, it may be enough for now, but what about in the future? I remember that the previous Sect Master of the Yuntian Sect has been in seclusion for a hundred years and hasn’t died; who knows, he may have already reached Divine Transformation.”

“At that time, when your brother Xiao Yan goes to the Yuntian Sect, do you really think this bodyguard of yours can keep him safe?”

“Your family, it’s not a difficult task to have a bunch of Divine Transformation experts or even those above that level, is it?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xi’er immediately fell silent.

It seems… there is some truth in what was said?

High above the clouds, the shadow trembled all over.

The family has Divine Transformation experts guarding the entrance; he, as just a Nascent Soul, if he doesn’t stay by the young lady’s side…

It’s over, he’s about to be out of a job!
