Chapter 0004: Chaotic Immortal Body
Buzz
"So heavy?" Ye Chen was astonished, not knowing what metal these iron weights were made of. His current strength was equivalent to the second stage of the Body Strengthening Realm, making it impossible for him to use these iron weights for training. However, those stone pedestals were quite suitable; each stone pedestal weighed only about 100 pounds, which he could manage.
Ye Chen walked under the large tree and discovered that it was filled with various items for physical training. Although they were roughly made, they were quite practical. There were stone stumps and black metal weights. Ye Chen reached out to try one and found that he had to exert all his strength just to lift a fist-sized weight.
Ye Chen listened attentively, deeply imprinting every word of Ye Wentian in his heart. At this moment, he finally gained an understanding of the cultivation system of the Changsheng Continent, which was remarkably different from that of Earth, being even more mysterious and profound
Half an hour later, Ye Chen was utterly exhausted, every ounce of strength drained from his body. The two stone stumps in his hands crashed to the ground, and the mark on his chest emitted a slight warmth as pure spiritual energy surged into his body. At the same time, a wave of heat radiated from his lower abdomen, with several streams of spiritual energy circulating through his limbs and meridians.
The skin has become significantly tougher and more resilient; if it undergoes a few more refinements with spiritual energy, it should be able to break through to the third stage of skin refinement.
The efficacy of the internal elixir has begun to wane, yet the spiritual energy surging from the mark on his chest remains exceptionally pure. It continued to circulate through Ye Chen's skin for nine complete cycles before suddenly coming to a halt on its own. No matter how much Ye Chen tried to control it, he could not refine the spiritual energy within his body to cleanse his skin. However, the weakness that had enveloped him vanished completely, and he felt invigorated, sensing an increase in his strength.
Although Ye Chen's psychological age is already in his twenties, he is still deeply shocked at this moment. The first physique of all time! What does this represent? It signifies that if he successfully cultivates in the future, he will be an absolute king among his peers. However, despite his extraordinary physique, it is sealed by the Great Dao.
Practice a few more times
Ye Chen was about to stand up and continue to exert his physical strength, allowing the mark on his chest to once again release spiritual energy. At that moment, a sudden coolness emanated from the mark on his chest, followed by a surge of immense spiritual energy that gathered and flowed toward a specific area of his muscles, subsequently penetrating into a single cell.
A glimmer of brightness flashed in Ye Wenting's eyes. Although the chaotic celestial body was sealed by the Great Dao, his comprehension and memory remained unaffected.
Ye Wontian stood beside Ye Chen, observing him. Although the Overlord Fist Seal was still somewhat unfamiliar in Ye Chen's hands, it was already unimaginable for a beginner.
Chen Er, you must remember what I say! Ye Wentiang looked deeply at Ye Chen, his tone serious. "The Chaotic Immortal Body, the first physique of all time, is too defiant. Therefore, the laws of heaven and earth do not permit such a physique to exist in this world. In the future, whether you are out in the world or become a disciple of a major sect, you must remember, never let anyone see your physique, otherwise, you will surely perish on the path of cultivation"
Good
The Secret Realm of Life Sea consists of nine levels, corresponding to nine surges of the Life Spring. The disparity in strength between practitioners at each level is immense. Ye Wontian said, glancing at Ye Chen, "As for the realms beyond the Secret Realm of Life Sea, they are too distant for you at this moment. In the future, when you cultivate to the Life Sea Secret Realm, you will naturally understand. I shall not elaborate further here."
The first eight stages involve refining the physical body through the essence of heaven and earth, allowing the blood and energy of the body to become abundant. The ninth stage focuses on refining the spirit and achieving a state of complete introspection. Only then can one utilize the blood energy and spiritual herbs to open a special space in the dantian. The incoming spiritual energy will form a sea of spiritual power within this space, referred to as the 'Sea of Life.' Beneath the Sea of Life, a spring known as the 'Spring of Life' will emerge, connecting to the life blood energy of the human body. It is here that the life blood energy first surges forth. The spiritual power in the Sea of Life will undergo refinement, and the practitioner's physical body will also be refined, undergoing a transformation that enhances longevity by one hundred years. At this point, one can be considered to have truly entered the 'Secret Realm of the Sea of Life'
"Do you remember?" Ye Wenting asked Ye Chen, observing his demeanor.
Father ... ... " Ye Chen felt somewhat uncomfortable. Ye Wentian did not blame him for concealing the truth, nor did he think he was impersonating someone. Instead, he spoke this sentence, treating him as his own child. After a brief silence, Ye Chen finally asked: "What do you mean by the chaotic immortal body?"
Ye Chen was left speechless; this punch likely possessed a force of several thousand pounds. How could a practitioner at the physical body realm condense a fist imprint? He was filled with confusion. Ye Wentian seemed to understand Ye Chen's thoughts and explained: "This fist imprint is driven by the airflow generated by the physical body's strength. To put it simply, it is the wind generated by the punch, but it is merely condensed into shape in a special manner."
It seems that I must quickly elevate my physical realm in order to unleash the power of this set of fist seals. Ye Chen muttered to himself, immersed in the Overlord Fist Seals. By the time he came to his senses, Ye Wentian's figure had already vanished, having left at some unknown time. Beneath a large tree in the back lay a pile of tools.
The great path is reversible! The great path is reversible! Ye Chen repeatedly recited this phrase in his heart, influenced by his father Ye Wentian's dominance and ambition. After a long while, he finally calmed his emotions, his expression serene, and his eyes as still as a dry well. He said, "Father, could you explain the cultivation system of this world to me?"
It can be clearly felt that with each circulation of the spiritual energy throughout the body, the hardness and elasticity of the skin are enhanced by a degree.
"Show me a demonstration. With your current strength, you are at most equivalent to the second stage of physical body. I do not require you to unleash the wind of your punches; it is sufficient if you can execute the moves of the Overlord Fist Seal." Regarding Ye Chen's words, Ye Wentian had no doubts. The Chaotic Immortal Body is, after all, a fusion of two ancient physiques. The Chaotic Body possesses immense physical strength, with every cell and every drop of blood within it being a treasure. The Immortal Body has unparalleled comprehension, naturally close to the Dao.
Ye Chen took a step forward, extending his arms and legs, executing the Overlord Fist from beginning to end with great vigor. Although there was no concentrated fist wind, there was a hint of the Overlord's momentum, and he remarkably performed this entire set of martial arts with almost no errors.
A hint of joy flashed in Ye Chen's eyes as he touched the skin on his arm. The sensation was markedly different from before; at this moment, his skin had become somewhat more resilient.
The air within three feet around Ye Wen Tian flowed with his movements, emitting a humming sound, and then formed an almost transparent fist imprint. It struck a tree that was as large as two people could embrace, three meters away.
The third stage of physical cultivation is skin refining. Ye Chen sat cross-legged, his face covered in sweat, his hair and clothes completely soaked. After exhausting his physical strength, he finally allowed the mark on his chest to unleash spiritual energy. He controlled this energy to circulate through every inch of his skin along his meridians
Ye Chen practiced the Overlord Fist continuously for several dozen times, and a hint of joy gradually appeared on his face as he became increasingly adept at it. During this process, whenever there were slight flaws, Ye Wentiang would correct him. After an hour, Ye Chen had nearly perfected the movements of this set of fist techniques. Although he was unable to condense the fist wind due to a lack of strength, he could still exert two to three points of power.
Come, today I will teach you a martial art called 'Overlord Fist Seal', which consists of seven forms. Pay close attention!
He moved quickly, and Ye Chen's eyes were fixed intently on every movement of Ye Wentian, committing the trajectory of his arms to memory. Ye Chen's gaze was filled with the shadow of Ye Wentian's dancing arms
The large tree swayed with a rustling sound, and a three-inch deep fist print appeared on the trunk, while leaves fell from the sky.
"But Father, no matter how special my constitution is, it is of no use..." Ye Chen's eyes flashed with anger as he said, "The Dao does not allow me; my dantian is sealed, and perhaps I can only cultivate my physical body for a lifetime."
"The great way is not irreversible!" Ye Wenting looked up at the sky, and a faint voice reached Ye Chen's ears, "There are no absolutes in the world; as long as you work hard and do not give up, there is hope for everything"
With each punch thrown by Ye Wantian, a roar of a tyrant accompanied it, causing the surrounding leaves to flutter down. The fierce wind from his punches made the towering trees tremble uncontrollably. Seven consecutive roars of the tyrant exuded a momentum capable of swallowing mountains and rivers. With the final punch, a resounding crack echoed as he forcefully broke a tree as thick as a water barrel, sending debris flying in all directions
"So how many realms are there in the Secret Realm of Life Sea? Are there any other secret realms beyond the Secret Realm of Life Sea?" Ye Chen inquired. The cultivation system of the Eternal Life Continent had already captivated him greatly.
Ye Wentian nodded, showing no signs of surprise at Ye Chen's words regarding 'this world,' and said: "Cultivation is divided into physical body and secret realms. The physical body has nine stages, and those who cultivate the physical body are not yet considered true cultivators. Only those who have truly entered the first secret realm of the human body, the 'Sea of Fate Secret Realm,' can be regarded as true cultivators"
Ye Wen Tian's expression was serious, and as he spoke, he seemed to embody the spirit of a conqueror, exuding a regal aura of dominance
Of course, if you are still that Chen'er, then it would be impossible for you to possess the 'Chaos Immortal Body'; the Chen'er of the past has completely vanished from this world. A trace of pain flashed in Ye Wentiantian's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and looked at Ye Chen, saying: 'Whether it is him or you, you are both my children, my Chen'er'
Bang
Nine Stages of the Physical Body, First Stage: Strengthening the Body, Second Stage: Enhancing the Physique, Third Stage: Refining the Skin, Fourth Stage: Refining the Muscles, Fifth Stage: Refining the Bones, Sixth Stage: Cultivating the Marrow, Seventh Stage: Refining the Meridians, Eighth Stage: Refining the Organs, Ninth Stage: Refining the Spirit and Consciousness
This morning, the soup that Nan'er gave me turned out to be brewed from spiritual herbs! Ye Chen finally understood in his heart why that girl was so mysterious and reluctant to speak. However, he felt it was truly a pity to consume such precious spiritual herbs himself; it was too wasteful. With the mysterious mark on his chest, he no longer needed any other spiritual resources. Instead, Nan'er, being a cultivator herself, would benefit the most from these spiritual herbs brewed for her.
Watch closely! Ye Wentie instructed Ye Chen, as he once again unleashed the Overlord Fist Seal, with his arms dancing, the airflow wildly converged.
When the Tyrant Fist Seal is cultivated to its highest realm, it allows the fist wind to take form, and each punch can emit a sound akin to the roar of a tyrant. In combat against practitioners of the physical realm, it can catch them off guard, instilling fear in their hearts and achieving remarkable effects
Ye Chen recalled the complete and unblemished boxing techniques demonstrated by Ye Wentian in his mind, and then nodded affirmatively
