Chapter 6: Creating the Star Body Cultivation Method (3/5)

"This brother is incredibly strong!"

"I haven't even grasped it yet, and he's already begun cultivating."

"Could this man be a prodigy from some prestigious family?"

Li Xingkong cleared his throat: "Alright, continue listening."

Without further ado, he resumed his lecture.

Zhang Taixuan cultivated while listening.

【Just as you were about to dissolve the bitter sea, you suddenly realized— the physical body is the foundation of cultivation; only by refining it to its utmost can you lay an unrivaled foundation.】

【In this cultivation world, people do not value physical refinement before the Bitter Sea realm— because no matter how much one refines their body in the post-heaven stage, it can hardly rival a Divine Body, Sacred Body, or Demon Body…】

【Special physiques are too powerful; merely breaking through a realm grants extraordinary power. Even the Empress Dowager's genius required devouring numerous Divine Bodies to evolve into a Chaos Body before reaching the peak.】

【The Empress Dowager's path is not easy to walk. You must forge your own.】

【For someone from this world, this path would certainly be extremely difficult.】

【But you possess the Chat Group, and in the future you can seize creation from countless worlds— naturally, you will not follow this world's path. You rejected the temptation to immediately open the Bitter Sea, and resolved to refine your body to its utmost before opening it.】

With clarity on his path, Zhang Taixuan directed all the essence and qi into refining his body, dispersing it throughout his limbs and hundred bones.

His blood and qi, bones, and meridians grew stronger under the refining of celestial essence.

Half a day passed.

Li Xingkong ended his teaching. Everyone rose, intending to approach Zhang Taixuan and make acquaintance, only to find he had already left without notice.

Spirit Herb Garden.

"Good thing I left quickly— otherwise I'd have wasted time on meaningless socializing."

Before his transmigration, he had been an introverted, socially anxious person.

After transmigration, he certainly couldn't suddenly become charmingly sociable.

The Chat Group is better— no need to meet face to face; say whatever you want!

He opened the Chat Group; the four members were chatting merrily.

Yotsuya Miko: "Uncle Jiu is truly formidable. With that talisman, ghosts and demons no longer dare approach me— I just wonder how long it'll last."

Lin Fengjiao: "As long as it works. When the talisman is used up, I'll give you a few more."

Huang Rong: "I wonder what Brother Zhang is doing— he hasn't shown up today at all."

Lin Fengjiao: "He's probably cultivating. Didn't he say yesterday that an Elder would be giving a lecture today?"

Ying Zheng: "Cultivation—the path to immortality. If only I could cultivate too."

Huang Rong: "Wow, Emperor Qin has arrived. By the way, since you got the historical records yesterday, have you dealt with Zhao Gao and Li Si yet?"

Ying Zheng: "I've only dealt with Hu Hai and Hu Ji so far. Li Si and Zhao Gao— I'll kill them when they're no longer useful."

Zhang Taixuan: "Hehe, I, Hu HanSan, am back! Rong'er, did you miss me?"

Huang Rong: "No! I don't even know what you look like yet! By the way, how's your cultivation going?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Easy peasy. Too simple. But I'm planning to add a new realm to the cultivation system of this world."

Huang Rong: "Add a new realm?!?! Is that even something you can just casually add?!"

Zhang Taixuan: "I have no choice. I'm just a normal body. To compete with Divine Bodies, I must refine my body to its utmost. Without taking a shortcut, achieving Dao is impossibly hard."

You have to understand, the cultivators in this world are absolutely monstrous.

The kind of beings who could probably catch an Emperor's weapon barehanded.

If you don't put in the work on your physical body, the disadvantage in the later stages will be extremely obvious.

After explaining the reasons, the friends in the chat group were stunned.

Lin Fengjiao: "Even a celestial artifact that can obliterate a galaxy with a single strike can be caught barehanded—the world you come from is way too terrifying!"

Huang Rong: "This... Zhang big brother, can you really pull it off?"

Zhang Taixuan: "How can a man say he can't? I gathered the essence of heaven and earth earlier, and my physical body is indeed getting stronger bit by bit. Anyway, there's no rush inside the grotto-heaven, so I'll just strengthen it slowly for now."

Yotsuya Miko: "Too bad I don't have any techniques on my side, so I can't help Zhang big brother."

Huang Rong: "My family does have some martial arts, though I don't know if they'd be useful to Zhang big brother?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Peach Blossom Island martial arts? If possible, I'd love to see them! Right, Old Mischief has the Nine Yin Manual, said to be the compendium of all martial arts. If there's any chance of getting it, that would be great."

Huang Rong: "That's a bit tricky. My father kept him locked up for so long and still couldn't get his hands on it."

Zhang Taixuan: "I know some old stories about Old Mischief. You could try tricking him—it might work."

With that, he went on to tell the tale of Old Mischief, Yideng, and Yinggu.

Huang Rong: "This... so Old Mischief actually did something like that back then. Knowing this, I think things will be much easier to handle. 【Red Packet】"

Huang Rong: "Let me give you my family's inherited martial arts first, hope they're useful."

Zhang Taixuan: "Many thanks."

Lin Fengjiao: "I have some fist and leg techniques here too, hope they'll be useful to you, young friend. 【Red Packet】"

Zhang Taixuan: "Many thanks, Uncle Nine."

After claiming Uncle Nine's and Huang Rong's red packets, Zhang Taixuan began to study them intently.

【You comprehended the fist and leg techniques gifted by Lin Jiu, and grasped the method of training external martial arts.】

【Combining the martial arts theories from your previous life, you divided the realms and quickly created a cultivation method for the six realms of national martial arts.】

Six Realms of National Martial Arts: Ming, An, Hua, Dan, Gang, Shen

【You comprehended the martial arts gifted by Huang Rong, and grasped the method of training internal energy.】

【Combining the web novel theories from your previous life, you quickly reorganized them into a method of four realms of internal cultivation.】

Four Realms of Internal Cultivation: Body Refining, Postnatal, Innate, Grandmaster

【You combined the strengths of both internal cultivation and national martial arts, creating the seventh realm of national martial arts—the Star Realm, opening the acupoints of the physical body and pushing qi, blood, and flesh to their absolute peak.】

【You combined the Way of Martial Arts, deduced the Way of Refining Acupoints, and created the Grandmaster and Celestial Being realms.】

【You combined the Celestial Being Realm and the Star Realm, creating the Star Body Forging Method!】

Star Body: When a mortal body's flesh is tempered to the absolute limit, acupoints are opened, transforming it into a passive constitution.

"Now I can cultivate!" Zhang Taixuan was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that mere ordinary martial arts would, under heaven-defying comprehension, transform into such an extraordinary existence.

With heaven-defying comprehension, even the resources of a low-martial world could be transformed into supreme creation.

This kind of aptitude was truly terrifying.

He stood up and began cultivating beside the spiritual herb garden.

Cultivating low-martial world techniques in a Gao Wu world — naturally, the speed was extraordinary.

With the blessing of heaven and earth's essence qi, his physical body's blood and qi rapidly strengthened; Bright, Dark, and Transformation each took a quarter of an hour.
