Chapter 3490: Proving the Dao Through the Body

arlike person, but...""No, no, no. You can't hide your true feelings in front of me," the alluring figure laughed. "I know what you desire...you want to make a name for yourself through war, to furthe...Fang Yu quickly returned to the center of the auction hall. 。Though the guards outside were numerous and appeared extremely formidable. 。However, in Fang Yu's presence, these guards were as useless as decorations, unable to offer any resistance. 。Therefore, seeing Fang Yu appear again in the private room with a calm face, both Xiaoliyu and Bai Mei's eyes held a mixture of strangeness and surprise. 。To bypass so many guards outside, could it really be that easy Given the platform they're on, they've seen countless strong fighters and naturally, many figures with ghostly agility as well. 。But, like Fang Yu, entering in hiding instantly became untraceable, not a single hint of his presence could be detected, until he voluntarily manifested himself... before this, I had truly never heard of such a thing. 。To have such ability, if it were a killer…

Bai Mei looked at Fang Yu's eyes with even more vigilance. 。Although there's no apparent hostility from this Fang Yu yet, a presence with such potential danger...must be treated with utmost caution!For the young mistress's protection, nothing can be left to chance! “Little Black, you’re truly amazing!” Little Carp skipped forward excitedly. 。

Fang Yu looked at the girl with her friendly personality, his eyes flickered, and he said: "It's all thanks to my master, and... I'm just capable of this. My uncle said that someone like me wouldn't survive in Wuzhou at all." 。"Humph, your uncle is just talking nonsense!" The little fish snorted and said, "With your skills, you want to sneak into the auction house's warehouse once That's enough." 。As soon as he said that, Bai Mei glanced at Xiao Liyu. 。

The little fish didn't care, pulling Fang Yu back to the windowsill. 。Come on, Xiaohei, let's continue. What do you want I'll get it for you. 。“The little carp said, “We’re selling a secret manual now” 。Fang Yu looked at the auction platform. 。At this moment, on the auction stage in the center of the hall, an elderly man with white beard and hair holds a seemingly worn-out ancient tome in his hand. 。This is an ancient secret scripture of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, a great sect from the Northern Desolation. During the time when the Taiyi Immortal Sect was still around, it was a forbidden technique that was never passed down outside the inner sect. 。But as everyone knows, the Taiyi Xianzong was exterminated five thousand years ago. As for the many secret manuals within the sect, they have all been circulated and fallen into the hands of major forces in Behuang. 。“The old man introduced in a gentle voice, ‘This ancient text is unique and the seller obtained it after great effort, even risking his life.’” 。"What kind of kung fu is '

“""

At this time, a cold-faced middle-aged cultivator from the east spoke. 。"That's right, I've heard of Taiyi Xianzong, but ever since it was destroyed, all the truly valuable martial arts and secrets within the sect were long divided up. How could they have ended up in our Southern Wilderness" A man in a luxurious robe shook his head and said. 。"This is the Ling's Auction House, I wouldn't doubt the authenticity of this secret manual, it's just a matter of price..." A veiled female cultivator with a magnetic voice said softly. 。"I understand the questions you honorable guests may have, and now I shall reveal... This is the Taiyi Immortal Sect, the Taiyi Cultivation Manual..." 。The elder on the auction stage said 。Taiyi Cultivation Scripture

Hearing this name, the cultivators in the audience seats first frowned, then shook their heads. 。Today's auction is unlike any other, with only cultivators who received invitations allowed entry. 。Therefore, those sitting in the hall today can be said to represent the most influential figures in Wuzhou. As they are at a higher level, their understanding and vision naturally extend further. 。"They all seem to know this martial art" Fang Yu asked curiously, seeing the reactions of these representatives from various factions below. 。。The little fish beside him scoffed, “Besides, Ti Xiu doesn’t really have the qualifications to be sitting here today.” 。"Why Is this auction house still discriminating" Fang Yu asked. 。

"Discrimination Hehe, you're really something, Xiaohei..." Xiaoluyu glanced at Fang Yu and smiled, "There is discrimination, of course, but what I mean is... right now, cultivators are unable to support a powerful force. They are a very vulnerable group" 。Today's auction, for 'safety', only invited representatives from influential forces in Wu State. Naturally, cultivators wouldn't have a chance to participate. 。"

Why is Tixiu weak" Fang Yu pursued, puzzled. 。His goal in coming to this auction today wasn't the small carp, nor the auction itself, but rather the Year Ring. 。But now, having finally heard something about physical cultivation, he naturally wanted to find out more. 。"Little Hei, are you a curious baby Why so many questions" Little Fish blinked and said 。"As you know, I just came from a remote mountain village. Usually, besides farming and raising pigs..." Fang Yu said. 。"Well, then I'll tell you why, since I just heard my... family elders talking about it..." 。The little carp cleared its throat and began to tell the story. 。In the primordial world of barbarity, cultivation in ancient times was divided into two major branches. After entering the path of cultivation, most cultivators would choose between two directions: either physical training or qi refinement. 。Back then, there were many cultivators who specialized in physical refinement and those who cultivated qi. They were basically in a state of balance. 。At the same level of cultivation, in actual combat, physical cultivators are generally stronger than Qi cultivators. This is also the fundamental reason why many cultivators choose the path of physical cultivation. 。

Body refinement allows oneself to gain combat effectiveness faster, thus seizing more resources. 。As time passes and things develop, with cultivators' realms growing higher and higher, the disadvantages of physical cultivation become increasingly apparent. 。That's... the upper limit problem. 。

Physical cultivation has a clear limit, while cultivators of Qi can continuously climb to new heights, from Earth Immortals, to Heaven Immortals, to Xuan Immortals, and even higher levels. 。As for physical cultivation, it relies on constantly tempering one's fleshly body to enhance one's cultivation power. 。A body refiner can only temper their body a limited number of times. Most body refiners spend their entire lives tempering their bodies only two to thirty times, which is considered top-tier among body refiners. 。and those who can temper their bodies over forty times are basically great figures recorded in history. 。Most body cultivators don't die at the hands of their opponents, but rather in their own 'next' tempering. 。Continuously tempering the body until it explodes, seems to be the inevitable ending for cultivators. 。In this situation, the number of cultivators who choose the path of physical refinement gradually decreases. 。

Meanwhile, in the Qi Refining direction, more and more powerful cultivators emerged. These powerful cultivators created many mysterious cultivation techniques, which made the development trend of the Qi Refining direction completely surpass that of Body Tempering. 。

Amidst this trend, a peerless genius suddenly emerged in the ranks of those who practice physical cultivation. 。This cultivator spent his entire life tempering his body eighty times… In the end, he successfully comprehended the laws of the Dao and became the only one who attained the rank of Immortal King by proving himself through his physical body. 。"Immortal King... the upper limit of that body cultivator is quite high as well..." 。"Fang Yu said" 。"Yes, this upper limit is certainly high, but the problem is, there's only one cultivator who has reached the level of Immortal King in history, while there are many Immortal Kings who focused on cultivating Qi." 。"The little fish blinked and said, " 。Here are a few options for the text you provided, depending on what you'd like to convey:**Formal:*** **
