Chapter 61: The Martial Body is Formed, the Bell Rings

  Hmph!

  In the mountain forest, Li Chen suddenly stumbled and spurted out a blood arrow, carefully scanning behind him to make sure no one was chasing after him before hiding behind a huge boulder.

  With a few loud thuds, Lei Peng and the little monkey landed beside him, vigilantly looking around. Fortunately, they had an understanding with each other; otherwise, it wouldn't have been easy to escape just now.

  "It seems that with my current strength, ordinary mid-stage True Essence realm warriors are no match for me!"

  Li Chen stabilized the blood and energy inside his body. Just now, he hadn't had time to solidify his cultivation after breaking through, so he encountered a strong enemy and fought hard, but internally, he didn't suffer much damage.

  On that day, he had not yet broken through, but relying on various means, he almost drew with Li Kunfeng, a mid-term warrior in the Quanzhen realm. Today, although several times more dangerous than then, after his breakthrough, these are nothing to him.

  Moreover, from the three people's moves just now, he could feel that all three of them had some reservations, seemingly not intending to take his life, but only wanting to injure him.

  Of course, in a place like this, even if you killed him, no one would know.

  Wow!

  He clenched his fists, and a thoughtful look flashed in Li Chen's eyes: "If not for the loss of the treasure armor, it would be possible to fight them... Treasure armor... Refining Body Secrets!"

  It seemed that he had thought of something, and Li Chen's eyes lit up. He took out a pellet of Gathering Breath Dan and swallowed it, before unfolding his body and fleeing into the distance.

  Time flies, when night falls, in a courtyard of the inner disciples' residence of Nanyun Peak, Xuan Yun Sect.

  Li Chen slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, and pulled out a jade slip from his bosom: "Li Mingyun said this is the only one in heaven and earth. Whether he's bragging or not depends on what's inside."

  Stick the jade slip on your forehead, close your eyes and concentrate your spirit.

  Buzz!

  A faint fluctuation flashed by in the gray misty light, and it was only a short while later that Li Chen's pale face opened his eyes: "My divine consciousness is still too weak, just looking at the jade slip can make me so tired. However, the body-refining technique inside doesn't have a name, did Li Mingyun get it wrong?"

  But thinking again, I feel that it's not right. Someone like Li Mingyun wouldn't make a mistake, unless he was intentionally fooling him, but there's no need for someone who is taking on an apprentice and giving away treasures to do so.

  "Wind and thunder anomalies, five elements yin and yang, nine pulses converge, mixed yuan without leakage, wild body through the sky. Isn't this the same as that 'Only I Am Supreme' theory? No, that night my mind inexplicably had the incomplete martial skill 'Wuji Dragon Collapse'. Could it be that this Body Refining Treasure also has such an incomplete technique?"

  After careful consideration, Li Chen sat down and restored the divine consciousness that had just been generated, and once again explored the contents of the jade slip.

  It was another brief moment, and Li Chen's face turned pale, his expression changing unpredictably: "Could it be that it's really incomplete, and there are only three heavenly vein condensation methods - fire, thunder, and wind? If Li Mingyun wanted to harm me, wouldn't he have just made a move?"

  Sitting on the giant stone in contemplation, until the sky darkened and the afterglow shone on his face again, he came to himself once more. Looking at the distant afterglow, he gritted his teeth: "Practice, those two old guys still don't know what kind of danger they'll have me do, without great power, I won't even know how to die."

  There are still a few Yunli fruits, plus many yuan stones, and the "Pure Yang Art" I cultivate happens to help me condense the heavenly fire pulse, cultivating a spiritual body, which strengthens my meridians even more and can also save time in cultivating the "Nine Turns Pure Yang Art".

  The heavens are favorable, the earth is advantageous, and people are in harmony; if you don't practice, it would be a great injustice to yourself!

  Thinking of doing it, Li Chen took out the yuan stone and the last few cloud pear fruits to make all preparations, sat down to recover his divine consciousness several times, and then memorized all the contents in the jade slip.

  Wait until recovery to the best condition, then practice according to the method recorded in Yu Jian.

  Haha!

  The next morning, just as the sky was brightening, a long whistle with an undertone of excitement suddenly came from the inner courtyard, startling everyone and making them look around to see who had made such a surprising sound.

  In the house, Li Chen, who was completely unaware of the many suspicions he had aroused, was standing with his shirt off, and his entire person looked like he had grown several inches taller. His body surface was smooth as ever, and even the scars that were originally left behind had faded a lot, suddenly restoring his original youthful appearance, only to add a few points of firmness.

  Carefully looking at his chest, near the heart, a faint red glow flashed, flowing through the entire body's meridians, forming an almost imperceptible web of light.

  Wow!

  "What incredible strength!"

  He clenched his fist and felt the surging power in his hand, and Li Chen clearly knew that his hard work overnight was not in vain.

  Even he himself did not expect that this seemingly extremely difficult nameless body-refining technique would actually allow him to break through to the second stage of martial body.

  Although it's just the initial stage, with his pure Yang True Qi, he has completed the ten layers of the Small Week Sky and has a strong foundation. With all these conditions combined, he is confident that no martial artist in the Refining Truth Initial Stage can be his match.

  It is worth noting that the cultivators of the body are also divided into nine levels, corresponding to the nine great realms of martial artists. The first two levels of the initial stage of martial arts are equivalent to the initial stage of the Refining Truth Realm. Relying solely on their physical bodies, ordinary swords and sabers cannot harm them, and even the aura emitted by low-grade spiritual weapons may not be able to cause them any harm.

  Of course, if there is a real energy infusion, then it's a different story.

  It's not as simple as one plus one equals two, but rather a doubling of growth.

  In fact, Li Chen's breakthrough this time is also reasonable. His physical body was originally strong and could be considered a first-class spiritual body peak, it's just that he hadn't undergone systematic cultivation yet.

  After cultivating the Pure Yang Skill that destroys the body, there was already a thread of breakthrough opportunity. After cultivating this unnamed refining body technique, after a day and night of uninterrupted refinement of Yunli fruit medicine power, guiding the most pure thread of pure yang true energy in one's own body, transforming into heavenly fire pulse condensing into the heart pulse, the entire flesh body is being washed and refined by Huo Xi Yuan Qi at all times.

  The power of his entire body was sublimated, becoming the catalyst for him to break through to the early stages of the Second-Order Martial Body.

  It can be said that if Rui Chen hadn't cultivated the pure Yang technique to condense his fire attribute true energy, and didn't have a strong physical body, as well as numerous Yun Li Guo and sufficient Yuan Shi, all sorts of coincidences coming together, if it were someone else cultivating that unnamed refining body technique, it would be absolutely impossible for them to succeed so quickly.

  "It's almost half a month now, it's time to take a trip to Luoyang!"

  Thinking of the three figures chasing him over a dozen days ago, Lei Chen's eyes flashed with cold light. The opponent was truly impatient to get rid of him. Now that his cultivation had made great progress, he wanted to see what the opponent could do.

  "Lei Peng, Jinzi, gone!"

  Taking a deep breath, Li Chen got up and walked out of the house, calling for Lei Peng and Little Monkey Jinzi to set off.

  Just then, a burst of celebratory bell sounds suddenly floated through the entire Xuan Yun Sect, ringing out three times in succession.

  The three chimes of the bell signify the birth of another elite genius!

  In Li Chen's mind, a figure suddenly flashed by without warning. At this moment, the only one who met the conditions was her.
