Chapter 200 - 132 Dark Forces, Su Lingxiu Refines Evergreen Bones_2
“Moreover, the cultivation technique for the Refined Skin Realm has started to spread, with more people starting to practice it. I’m also working with Xu Junhe, reshaping the beliefs of Martial Artists.
“Not long from now, I believe there will be quite a number of Martial Artists in the Borderlands.”
Kou Ruozhi reported the changes in the Borderlands to Su Lingxiu.
Martial Arts had begun to spread in the Borderlands.
“Over at Wu Country, The Emperor of Wu personally made a visit and attained the Martial Arts techniques. We’ve made an agreement. Our target is the same, that is, the Inner Domain.
“The Xu Family has become the sacred place of Martial Arts in the Borderlands, every Martial Artist respects the Martial Saint, anyone who practices Martial Arts worships the Martial Saint.
“When we enter the Inner Domain in the future, we, the Martial Artists of the Borderlands, will certainly make a place for ourselves.”
Kou Ruozhi’s face was full of excitement.
Rebellion and all that, are child’s play. Going into the Inner Domain to compete, and rival the Martial Artists of the Inner Domain, is what a man should do!
“Additionally, the Heavenly Mother Sect is planning to dissolve. I intend to rename the Heavenly Mother Sect to the Medicine King Sect. I wonder what you think?”
Su Lingxiu paused, falling into deep thought.
After all, she would have to go to the Inner Domain eventually. The Heavenly Mother Sect was her force, and with this reorganization, it should have a new look.
“My practice focuses on alchemy and Martial Arts, with Alchemy as the main focus. Once we enter the Inner Domain, conflicts are inevitable. To establish a foothold there, strong power is necessary.
“And this power is not just my own, but also requires a sufficient number of powerful individuals. Only with these can we acquire more resources.”
With this in mind, Su Lingxiu weighed her options and said, “Select some talented and capable individuals to set up Chang Qing Pavilion. Let’s settle with this name for now.”
Kou Ruozhi blinked, Chang Qing Pavilion?
“Yes, yes, as expected, Miss Su thought it through. Eternal prosperity, that’s quite a good choice!”
Kou Ruozhi flattered her.
Su Lingxiu tossed him an elixir pill, saying, “You’re starting to cultivate the bones now. This pill is for you. Do a good job.”
“Yes, yes!”
Kou Ruozhi was overjoyed.
Having finished reporting, Kou Ruozhi took his leave.
Li Xuan was pensive. More people in the Borderlands started practicing Martial Arts, and there were already dozens of people who had begun their journey in Martial Arts.
Furthermore, each one of these practicing Martial Artists were worshiping him, the Martial Saint.
They also called him the Martial Ancestor of the Borderlands.
However, he had yet to receive any feedback from the Golden Finger.
“Is it because there are still too few people practicing?”
Li Xuan pondered.
“Indeed, disciples are reliable. It’s been some time, 1 wonder how Xu Yan is doing? How far away is he from fully breaking through to the Innate Realm?”
For a while, he had not received any Golden Finger feedback from Xu Yan.
“Meng Chong went to the Inner Domain, and I didn’t get any feedback from him either. So, it seems Grandmaster-level Martial Artists are not very common.”
Not long after Xu Yan went to the Inner Domain, he killed a Grandmaster.
As for Meng Chong, even after such a long time, he had not given him any feedback, clearly indicating that he hadn’t killed a Grandmaster yet.
Indeed, Grandmaster-level Martial Artists in the Inner Domain, belonging to the top rank, were rare and not so easy to encounter.
Red Cat came over and lay down in front of him, looking at him intently.
The thick gold chain around its neck had been lengthened by Shi’er due to Red Cat’s growth.
“You still don’t understand?”
Li Xuan sighed. Although Red Cat was more intelligent than ordinary beasts, it was still not human after all.
However, it seemed to understand a bit, otherwise its body wouldn’t have grown so much.
He picked up the cane and pointed out the acupoints on Red Cat once more, explaining the technique of the Great Demon.
Such as, how to open acupoints, how to nurture the physical body, and how to condense the body of the Great Demon.
“I told you, the first acupoint, open this one in your head. After it’s opened, your intelligence should increase a little.”
Li Xuan pointed to an acupoint on its head and said.
Red Cat gave a look of semi-understanding.
“Alright, go and ponder it by yourself. If your body continues to grow, you’ll become less cute, and I might be tempted to stew you.”
Li Xuan threatened with a chuckle.
Red Cat’s body shuddered, suddenly feeling pressured. It hurriedly scampered away with its tail hanging down, finding a place to contemplate.
“Master, aren’t you overestimating Red Cat? How could it possibly understand the methods of major demons? It might not even remember the acupoints you’ve taught it.”
Su Lingxiu didn’t have much faith in Red Cat.
“That’s not necessarily true, haven’t you noticed it’s already grown considerably larger?”
Li Xuan said with a smile, “Even if it can’t cultivate into a major demon, it would still be useful as a sturdy beast of burden.”
Su Lingxiu gave a nod, her hands fiddling with the corner of her clothes as she asked, “Master, how can I forge the Everlasting Bone?”
She had been stuck at the Golden Bone stage for quite some time.
Li Xuan glanced at his third disciple. She was also incredibly gifted, and he had always suspected that Su Lingxiu might possess a special physique.
However, the Everlasting Bone was far too extraordinary. It was not something that could be easily cultivated.
in
Everlasting, everlasting, immortal throughout the ages.’ It depends on vitality and on being uninterrupted; your eldest senior brother’s Jade Bone is the purest root bone in the world; your second senior brother’s Diamond Lustrous Bone is the most solid one in the world;
“The Everlasting Bone of your Alchemy Martial Arts is about being uninterrupted and having rich vitality, just like this big tree, which grew from a small sapling.
“The Everlasting Bone is the foundation of your Alchemy Martial Arts. It depends on how you comprehend it, how you align with the Essence of Everlasting.”
Li Xuan thought for a moment and then gave his guidance.
Su Lingxiu contemplated over his words. In her mind, she visualized the Alchemy Manual, various alchemy formulas, and her most recent insights.
“Thank you, master!”
Su Lingxiu said respectfully.
Returning to her cultivation spot, she was still deep in thought. Her master’s words had given her some new insights.
Everlasting for eternity, is all about being uninterrupted and thriving vigorously.
But how can it be uninterrupted and thrive vigorously?
She looked at the flowers she had planted. Some of them had already withered, but the leaves on the branches of the flower trees were still verdant, and there were some wilted leaves on the ground too.
However, some of the flowers were in full bloom. This was their blooming season.
She seemed to have a vague understanding in the depth of her mind.
She took out a refined Everlasting Elixir subconsciously, placed it in her mouth, sat amidst the flowers, and started cultivating. At one point, she felt a surge of vitality.
The scent of flowers wafted into her nose, soothing her heart and mind. Withered leaves on the ground and fresh buds emerging were all in her thoughts.
Isn’t this the meaning of being uninterrupted?
At one point, Su Lingxiu felt her bottleneck loosen, and her bones seemed to exude a peculiar sensation. Slowly, it felt like a warm current was flowing through her bones.
Li Xuan’s brows perked up. Su Lingxiu was about to break through to the Everlasting Bone.
“Once the Everlasting Bone is forged, she can start refining her organs. For Lingxiu, organ refining isn’t difficult, she can quickly enter the Martial Arts path.
“After breaking through the Blood Qi level, she can refine elixirs with her Blood Qi.
“A deeper understanding of the Medical Manual isn’t too far-off!”
Li Xuan was excited. Once Su Lingxiu had set foot on the martial path, he would receive feedback from Alchemy Martial Arts, especially from the Everlasting Bone. What kind of transformation would occur when the Jade Bone, Diamond Lustrous Bone, and Everlasting Bone combined?
All of a sudden, a long-lost golden light emerged.
Li Xuan’s heart leapt with joy. From which disciple did this feedback come?
“Your disciple Xu Yan, while cultivating his state of mind at Wushuang Pavilion, has comprehended the Natural Order. Your Natural Order has been perfected!”
BOOM!
In an instant, the Mountain and River Sword Intent mastered by Li Xuan underwent a transformation.
Within the Mountain and River imagery, it was no longer just a vague landscape, but it now contained living creatures such as birds circling, fish swimming in the river, and insects in the grass.
He could even faintly see people hard at work.
“Holy!”
Li Xuan was utterly shocked. Although this Natural Order was an illusion, it was still a significant advancement, a perfection of the Mountain and River Sword Intent.
Now, within the Mountain and River imagery, there seemed to be thriving life.
Of course, this was all very abstract. After all, this was just the foundation of the Natural Order. His perfected understanding was still quite basic.
Even so, Li Xuan was able to sense the meaning contained in the Natural Order and the powerful force it represented.
“If one day, my Mountain and River are like the heavens and the earth, how powerful would that be?”
Li Xuan couldn’t even begin to imagine.
Indeed, all this needed the support of his Martial Arts realm. Without it, even the most profound understanding wouldn’t develop the Mountain and River imagery fully..
