Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Peak of Body Refining

Wang Xuan’s status among the disciples of the Mountain Gate is far beyond what it was when he first entered the Otherworld.

After a period of interaction, the Mountain Gate disciples have come to realize his strength. Whether in terms of power or strategy, he is indeed beyond comparison with these young people.

However, cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight. No matter how talented one is, the path of cultivation must be taken step by step, without the slightest chance of luck.

Forcibly pursuing speed in cultivation will only waste one’s talent, ultimately leading to a shaky foundation, depleting one’s potential, and affecting one’s future. No one would make such a foolish mistake.

There was once someone who broke the record for the fastest achievement of the Earth Immortal Realm to leave a name in history. Born with immortals nurturing his roots and bones in the womb, he began cultivating at six, reached Organ Refining at seven, Blood Exchange at eight, the Vajra Realm at ten, and Earth Immortal at twelve.

Such speed is truly unimaginable, but what happened next was shocking.

At twelve, he was at the First Realm of Earth Immortal, but it took until thirty-six to reach the Second Realm of Earth Immortal, and at one hundred and eight, he reached the Peak of Earth Immortal, after which his cultivation level showed no further progress.

At the Peak of Earth Immortal, he fought an Earth Immortal Second Realm—Divinity Transformation cultivator, and was easily defeated, becoming a laughingstock.

The record said to be famous in history turned out to be a joke and became a cautionary tale for many teachers to warn their disciples.

There is a common understanding in the cultivation realm that before the age of twelve, it is best to stop at the Peak of Skin Refining and not break through further.

Wait for the body to develop before proceeding with Bone and Organ Refining.

And before sixteen, do not surpass the Peak of Blood Exchange, fully utilizing one’s innate potential before breaking through.

Before the age of eighteen, the Mountain Gate will ensure that disciples continue to build their foundation, solidify their base, and settle for the future.

Long Jiyuan and Liu Weiyang exchanged glances, both filled with doubt. They were unaware of Wang Xuan’s true strength, or perhaps they never understood it.

A few days ago, they unlocked a seal and immediately gained Peak of Meridian Opening power, making them standouts in the group, sweeping aside those boys and girls, originally expected to take the leadership position.

However, even after their breakthroughs, everyone, intentionally or unintentionally, still looked to Wang Xuan as the leader, which was a bizarre phenomenon.

“He might be at the Peak of Blood Exchange, or perhaps not yet. To break through to the Meridian Opening Realm, it’s supposed to take some time to settle before attempting gradually.”

Long Jiyuan believed Wang Xuan could reach the Meridian Opening level within a few months but didn’t think one day would be enough.

Liu Weiyang slightly shook his head, “You forgot, back at the Immortal Martial Combat Hall, he was only at the Peak of Organ Refining, yet he suppressed Chen Hong and Zhang Qingyu.

In less than two months, he had reached the Blood Exchange Realm. Such speed is indeed terrifying, and even when we sit quietly, we can hear his blood rushing, confirming he’s in the Blood Exchange Realm.

To cross two great realms in such a short time and maintain such a solid foundation, reaching the Meridian Opening level by tomorrow is not impossible. Although miraculous, he is Wang Xuan.”

“That’s true, but do you think when Wang Xuan reaches the early stage of Meridian Opening, he could withstand the Peak of Meridian Opening experts like Jing Yishui and Lei Tingzhi?” Long Jiyuan asked in doubt.

This is a debatable issue. No one knows because there is a realm gap.

But such uncertainty is something worth praising. The sword cultivators of Celestial Sword Mountain at the Peak of Meridian Opening have always been strong among their layer. The notion that they might not securely defeat someone at the early stage of Meridian Opening is remarkable.

From this, it’s evident how immensely powerful Wang Xuan’s combat power is, unimaginably valiant within the same rank, nearly sweeping aside cultivators of the same tier.

Wang Xuan possesses full confidence, understanding Jing Yishui and Lei Tingzhi’s mindset, or rather, a life attitude.

As former losers overcome by him, they of course feel unwilling. But when renewed with confidence, challenging again, growing more resilient with setbacks, isn’t about revenge.

“Unfortunately, you will be disappointed.”

After reaching the limit of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Scripture, his physique naturally strengthened. As the suppression of the heavens and earth eased, he naturally entered the Blood Exchange Realm.

What signifies the Blood Exchange Realm?

The bone marrow undergoing transformation absorbs a lot of essence qi, using the body’s nutrients as production materials to create new blood to high standards.

The bone marrow, critical to the human body, is responsible for blood production, and its transformation naturally leads to the transformation of the blood.

When the original blood and essence are absorbed, the waste is excreted, and the essence is converted to nourish the bone marrow, nurturing new blood.

This process is termed Blood Exchange, and when old blood is completely replaced with new blood, one has entered the Blood Exchange Realm.

The new blood, every drop like essence blood, thick as mercury, contains significant qi, blood, and nutrients.

One month into the Blood Exchange Realm, he continually trained diligently, using no accelerators. The progress was excellent, smoothly breaking into the middle phase of Blood Exchange.

The high-quality blood flowing through the body naturally leads to the transformation of the flesh body.

The so-called rebirth is essentially achieved through a cycle of gradual enhancement from muscle, skin membrane, bones, and internal organs. After the Peak of Marrow Refining, when Blood Exchange begins, essence blood further nourishes muscles, skin membrane, bones, internal organs, and even bone marrow, continuously strengthening them.

From Muscle Training to Marrow Refining is the first rebirth, and the Blood Exchange Realm is another rebirth, with Blood Exchange cultivators constantly strengthening their physique.

“This past month, I’ve been experimenting and delving deep into the Heart-Cutting Demon Scripture, hypnotizing countless members of the Celestial Race every day. My hypnotism skills have become masterful; with just a glance or a sound, I can hypnotize a dozen or twenty ordinary people.

Even those in the Bone Marrow Refining Realm can be unknowingly hypnotized if they are unguarded.”

One month was enough to accomplish many things.

But since the Sealers have all reached the Peak of Meridian Opening, and the Mountain Gate disciples who were originally at the Peak of Blood Exchange have broken through to the Early Period of Meridian Opening, overall strength has greatly improved, and I should breakthrough as well.

It really takes some heart power to suppress them.

“Accelerator,” he summoned.

Name: Wang Xuan

Age: Twenty-four

Height: 1.88 meters

Weight: 120 kilograms

Realm: Middle Period of Blood Exchange

Cultivation Skills: Mortal Transformation Technique – Minor Achievement, Bone Marrow Cleansing Scripture – Limit, Life Generating Technique – Seventh-Layer Limit, Heart Spirit Demon Scripture – Peak of True Demon Realm, Divine Elephant Golden Bell Shield – Seventh-Layer Limit, Overlord Saber Limit, Mixed Element Stance Limit…

Source Points: Twenty-nine thousand eight hundred and twenty

Wang Xuan analyzed the skills he had learned, the most important being the Heart Spirit Demon Scripture and Divine Elephant Golden Bell Shield. He could enter these techniques at any time, but for better cultivation results, it’s best to elevate his cultivation level to the Peak of Blood Exchange.

At the Peak of Blood Exchange, his physique would be more formidable, and practicing these techniques would yield greater benefits; forcing quick results is not good.

“Mortal Transformation Technique – Minor Achievement (Acceleratable), would you like to accelerate?”

Wang Xuan clicked on the accelerator with his mind. Instantly, the accelerator started, and the Mortal Transformation Technique’s operation speed increased by thousands, even tens of thousands of times, completing hundreds of Great Cycles in the blink of an eye.

Brand-new blood coursed through flesh, tendons, bones, organs, and marrow, with these body materials absorbing the essence of blood, continuously evolving and strengthening.

The comfort felt like metamorphosing into an immortal, and in the span of breathing, Wang Xuan reached the Late Period of Blood Exchange, followed swiftly by the Peak of Blood Exchange, with the blood circulating in the body countless times.

As the Mortal Transformation Technique reached perfection, Wang Xuan realized that the blood could no longer enhance his physical constitution, indicating that the blood and other body tissues had reached the same starting line.

“After the Mortal Transformation, condense the body’s essence qi into Primordial Essence, which is the true essence of the body. Condensing a cluster of this might require devouring a huge bull.”

The Mortal Transformation Technique continued to accelerate, generating clusters of Primordial Essence within his body, which roamed the body like little mice beneath the skin.

The Primordial Essence began flushing the body, repairing hidden injuries if any existed, and purging impurities.

The ultimate transformation, leaving a perfect and flawless body akin to a newborn, with a robust physique, formidable life force, impressive recovery abilities, and various bodily functions reaching an unattainable level for ordinary people.

Wang Xuan’s fingers trembled slightly, testing subtle movements to sense self-data and see just how much improvement there was.

His fingers moved back and forth like an illusion, each motion eliciting a burst of air explosions, like a string of firecrackers grabbing attention with loud pops and bangs.

After several breaths, Wang Xuan had clarity in his heart.

“Strength increased by 50%, my power should be around 80,000 pounds now, capable of raising 40 tons. At the level of Body Refining, this is quite formidable.”

This power is more than triple the Peak of Blood Exchange; if calculated with his Innate Divine Strength, it should’ve been tenfold, but that’s nearly impossible.

Even at the current 80,000 pounds, few in the Body Refining Realm can achieve it.

This foundation results from cultivating several limit realms, along with techniques like Divine Elephant Golden Bell Shield, Life Generating Technique, and Heart-Cutting Demon Scripture.

“Probably even at the Peak of Meridian Opening, no one possesses the power I have, meaning I can crush those in the Blood Exchange Realm, comparable to the Meridian Opening tier.”

Strength, vitality, self-healing ability, five senses, and thinking, although martial arts and speed are somewhat lacking, he is almost not inferior to the Peak of Meridian Opening.

However, this strength is only enough to compete with general Peak of Meridian Opening individuals, and can’t guarantee victory. Jing Yishui and Lei Tingzhi, are prodigies of Celestial Sword Mountain, capable of defeating ordinary Peak of Meridian Opening practitioners with a single blow.

Their strength is extraordinary.

Wanting to suppress Jing Yishui and Lei Tingzhi with this power is truly impossible; it needs much more.

“Still need to keep cultivating hard.” Wang Xuan sighed.
