Chapter 255: Chapter 9 Physical Body Divine Ability, Mu Qingliu's Decision (Please Subscribe)_2
...
Half a day later.
A beam of mirror light crossed infinite distances.
It descended upon the buffer zone between Central Divine Continent and the Barbarian Wilderness.
"The offspring of the Demon Saint is dead?"
Daoist Immortal Sect Master Mu Qingliu frowned.
"Sect Master, at that time..."
Jun Xiaoyao immediately began to explain.
Upon sensing that the great prince of the Barbaric Demon Beasts was about to awaken,
Jun Xiaoyao had all the disciples of the numerous Immortal Sects retreat to the Central Divine Continent for the time being.
In addition,
Jun Xiaoyao also spied on the movements of the thousand-zhang giant ape from a distance through a secret technique.
What he discovered was a terribly shocking scene.
A great prince standing a thousand zhang tall
was actually trampled to death by the "tiny figure" after just a few stomps.
Jun Xiaoyao did not see the appearance of that "tiny figure",
For this person's vitality surged around him, repelling all spells and divine skills.
"Let me see."
The Daoist Immortal Sect Master Mu Qingliu arrived at the scene,
and then, with the aid of the light of the Taihao Immortal Mirror, began to 'trace back.'
This was the capability of the Taihao Immortal Mirror, which could forcibly 'trace back' to a specific period in a region's past.
Of course,
the 'traced back' scenes could not involve levels of Refine Void.
Ancient Saints were already influencing the surrounding heaven and earth, the natural nemesis of such 'tracing back' techniques.
"Buzz."
The scene shifted.
The next instant,
the scene was filled with boundless vitality.
"Indeed, it is an Ancient Saint, and furthermore, a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint..."
Daoist Immortal Sect Master Mu Qingliu stayed silent, although the scene did not specifically trace back to anything, but based on Jun Xiaoyao's explanation and the residue aura at the scene,
he was already able to deduce many things.
"A Body Cultivation Ancient Saint?"
"Since when did my Central Divine Continent birth such a powerful being?"
Mu Qingliu thought, frowning.
He was unaware whether this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint was a friend or a foe to his Daode Immortal Sect.
But beyond doubt, a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint skilled in offensive capabilities could completely alter the balance of power among the current four major forces if he wished to.
...
In the north of Divine Continent,
Blood Demon Sea.
The ruler of the Blood Demons sat cross-legged on a small island deep within the Blood Demon Sea.
Although he was also an Ancient Saint of Refinement Void, he had merged with the Blood Demon Sea,
thus possessing an ability close to immortality; however, he also gave up his freedom as his true body could not leave the Blood Demon Sea's range.
Of course,
if willing to pay the price,
the ruler of the Blood Demons could also enter the Central Divine Continent.
That would be by driving the Blood Demon Sea to start expanding.
As long as the Blood Demon Sea was vast enough to cover the entire world,
the restriction that the ruler of the Blood Demons could not leave the Blood Demon Sea would make no difference.
"Huh?"
"News from the Demon Saint?"
The ruler of the Blood Demons raised his eyebrows.
In order to jointly resist the Daode Immortal Sect,
the Demon Saint's Nest, the Blood Demon Sea, and the Ghost Palace of Netherworld had always shared intelligence.
The enemy of an enemy is a friend.
The Daode Immortal Sect was too powerful.
If they did not join forces, they would only face defeat more quickly.
"A Body Cultivation Ancient Saint has appeared?"
The ruler of the Blood Demons appeared grave.
The limit of the lineage of Body Cultivation was the Divinity Transformation Stage, which is why it was a vassal to the Immortal Path, and many cultivators always treated Body Cultivation techniques as a means to strengthen the body and improve health.
Even so,
If not relying on external objects, at the same level, a Body Cultivator was seldom much weaker than a cultivator of the same level.
In some aspects, they might even be stronger.
Especially,
from the Divinity Transformation Stage of the Body Cultivation lineage,
there was an extremely low chance to conceive Physical Body Divine Abilities.
Body Cultivators in the Divinity Transformation Stage had a chance to master Physical Body Divine Abilities.
Theoretically, Body Cultivators in the Refining Void Period had an even higher chance of mastering Physical Body Divine Abilities.
"Where did this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint come from, is he the backup of the Daode Immortal Sect?"
The ruler of the Blood Demons desperately wanted to know the identity of this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint.
If this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint really came from the Daode Immortal Sect,
in the next thousands of years, the Blood Demon Sea, the Demon Saint's Nest, and the Ghost Palace of Netherworld wouldn't be able to turn the tide and would only be able to hide in their own territories, barely clinging to survival.
...
In the south of Divine Continent,
Ghost Palace of Netherworld.
"A Body Cultivation Ancient Saint?"
The gaunt man sitting on the throne had a bit of a headache.
Over the past few decades, too many changes had occurred in the world.
First, a Master Yuanyang from the East Sea emerged, possessing the strength of a Half-step Refinement Void Ancient Saint.
And now, another Body Cultivation Ancient Saint had appeared.
As the King of Ghost Cultivators, how could the gaunt man not know how powerful a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint was?
"Where are all these people coming from?"
The gaunt man rubbed his brow.
"Let's not mention that Master Yuanyang from the East Sea for now, with half-step Refine Void strength, he might be some ascetic master hiding his prowess."
But a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint?
Has such a thing ever emerged throughout history?
Shouldn't there be some sort of omen?
Like the emergence of a group of Body Cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Stage first.
Then from this group, a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint would be born.
Only then would it make sense as a gradual progression.
"Still, I need to investigate this,"
"As to what stance this Refinement Void Ancient Saint truly holds."
The gaunt man did not believe that this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint came from the Daode Immortal Sect.
If the latter, known for its domineering style, had actually borne a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint,
they would have announced it impatiently by now.
How could there be no news about it until now?
...
Cloud Mist Blessed Land.
Lin Yuan appeared silently in the cultivation chamber.
"No one has noticed..."
Lin Yuan glanced at the situation in the Cloud Mist Blessed Land after leaving for over ten days.
Everything was normal; no one else had come to visit, and Chunhua and Qiuyue had been dutifully standing guard outside.
"Physical Body Divine Ability."
Lin Yuan let out a light breath.
He faintly felt the pulsation deep within his bloodline, almost fully formed, ready to 'break out of its shell' at any moment.
"Exactly what kind of Physical Body Divine Ability is it?"
Lin Yuan looked forward with anticipation, quietly waiting.
After half a day,
the Physical Body Divine Ability completely took shape.
In an instant,
a deluge of information about 'Physical Body Divine Ability'
flooded into Lin Yuan's mind.
"Physical Body Divine Ability—Blood Rebirth?"
Lin Yuan's eyes shone brightly.
This Divine Ability could be called omnipotent.
Whether it was for saving his own life,
or for fighting,
it had great utility.
According to the introduction of this Divine Ability,
as long as Lin Yuan's physical body had not completely turned into nothingness,
and there was at least a drop of his blood remaining, he could quickly be reborn.
That was truly terrifying.
For someone like Lin Yuan, who possessed a Martial Tao Primordial Spirit and was an Evolver,
even if his physical body collapsed,
the Primordial Spirit still had the power to fight.
But for the vast majority of Sixth Rank Evolvers,
without a physical body, although it wouldn't mean death, their soul body's and spirit body's strength would significantly diminish.
"First, I will comprehend the fundamental essence of this Divine Ability..."
Lin Yuan gathered his thoughts and began to study carefully, relying on his Against-Heaven's Understanding.
The Divine Ability, Blood Rebirth, was indeed good, but it came from the Bloodline Power of Jun Wuji in this world.
That is to say,
once the time for Lin Yuan to stay was up and he returned to the Main World, even if he became a Refine Void Body Cultivator again,
the awakened Physical Body Divine Ability might not necessarily be Blood Rebirth.
After all, the two bodies were different, and their bloodlines were also different.
However,
as long as he fully understood the essential principle of the Blood Rebirth Divine Ability,
no matter where Lin Yuan was, he could use this Divine Ability.
The so-called Divine Skills, the so-called talents, were nothing more than a complex Law or Dao.
Once its essence was understood, it could be easily deployed.
That was the terrifying aspect of Against-Heaven's Understanding.
Study all things.
And then utilize all things.
...
Daode Immortal Sect.
At the highest hall,
Sect Master Mu Qingliu sat expressionless.
"I can't wait any longer..."
Mu Qingliu stood up and muttered to herself.
In the buffer zone between Central Earth and the Barbarian Wilderness, traces of a Body Cultivation Ancient Saint had appeared.
This made Mu Qingliu somewhat uneasy and also feel a hint of pressure.
If this Body Cultivation Ancient Saint allied with the Nether Palace, Blood Demon Sea, and Demon Saint's Nest,
even though they still wouldn't be able to shake the foundations of the Daode Immortal Sect, it would indeed cause great chaos across the land.
The Daode Immortal Sect urgently needed a second Refinement Void Ancient Saint to preside over it now.
Originally, Mu Qingliu wanted to observe for a while longer and choose the final successor between Jun Dongjin and Mu Mengting.
But now,
there was no more time for that.
The resources and methods currently possessed by the Daode Immortal Sect
were only enough to forcibly promote one person to the Refining Void Period.
"As long as the Immortal Sect has two Ancient Saints presiding, even if that Body Cultivation Ancient Saint joins forces with those three old fools, it won't make a difference,"
Mu Qingliu thought to herself.
Having two Ancient Saints presiding over Mount Morality Immortal had an effect that wasn't as simple as one plus one equals two.
"Jun Dongjin... Mu Mengting..."
The names of these two individuals flickered through Mu Qingliu's mind, and she had already made her decision.
