Chapter 129

Klee was not afraid, tilting her head as she scrutinized Zhongli.

She couldn't help but feel that this serious-looking big brother was a bit overly excited.

"Sect Master, we don't understand. What is this 'Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body'? What is that?"

Alice was so anxious she could hardly sit still.

Right now, looking at the reactions of Zhongli and Jiang Yan, it was clear that Klee's talent was as good as it could possibly be.

But...

She really didn't know what the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body was!

If it were something like the Primordial Sacred Body or the Innate Dao Body, she could at least cross-reference it with the cultivation novels she had read.

This Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body sounded domineering, but what was it actually like?

Deep down, Alice was thrilled.

Her little treasure had far greater talent than her own; for Alice, nothing was more worth being proud of than this.

Her daughter was an unparalleled, peerless prodigy!

Just hearing that the ancestor Xuanxi had achieved the status of a Heavenly Immortal made it clear to Alice how terrifying this physique was.

But the key now was...

How to evolve it?

Even if Klee's Fire Spirit Body required the resources of an entire world to evolve, Alice would be willing to slaughter her way through the Sea of Quanta to find them.

The determination of a mother for her child is unimaginable.

Seeing Alice's emotional state, Jiang Yan decided not to keep them in suspense and said softly:

"The Fire Spirit Body is a basic five-element physique. Besides that, there are also the Wood Spirit Body, the Water Mist Body, and so on."

"Physiques of this kind have average inherent strength, but they are the most sought-after in all the great sects of the cultivation world."

"Because this type of physique can grow."

"The Wood Spirit Body can evolve into the Green Emperor Longevity Body; those who possess this physique can bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh on bones with a single drop of blood."

"Their lifespan is also ten times that of cultivators of the same rank."

"Their attainments in wood-element techniques are absolutely heaven-sent, unmatched by anyone."

"By the same token, Klee's Fire Spirit Body can evolve into the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body."

"In the past, when the ancestor Xuanxi was traveling through the star seas at the Spirit Refinement and Void Return stage, she saw a world plagued by demons, where mortals were suffering immensely."

"The ancestor Xuanxi was enraged; with her mid-stage Spirit Refinement and Void Return cultivation, she unleashed divine fire across the sky, completely burning that entire world to ash."

"Later, after breaking through to the Void Refinement and Dao Integration stage, she awakened the Samadhi True Fire, capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas."

"She was ranked seventh on the Prodigy List."

"In just a thousand years, she broke through to ascend, and upon arriving at the upper realm of Shushan, she received focused cultivation."

"In just ten kalpas, she achieved the status of a Heavenly Immortal."

"All of this, aside from the ancestor Xuanxi's extremely high comprehension, was due to the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body."

He paused, and seeing that everyone was beginning to understand, Jiang Yan continued:

"The Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body is one of the Divine Bodies. Ordinary physiques are only called special physiques."

"But the strongest among special physiques are called Divine Bodies."

"The greatest strength of the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body is that anyone who awakens one of the five-element Divine Bodies has the opportunity to use the mutual generation of the five elements to awaken the Five-Element Sacred Body."

"That is a true Sacred Body, which even transcends the level of special physiques."

"Klee's Fire Spirit Body has the chance to evolve into the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body in the future; for this reason alone, her talent is unparalleled in the world."

Alice excitedly hugged Klee and kissed her, then hurriedly looked at Jiang Yan.

"Sect Master, what must be done for Klee to awaken the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body? No matter what, I will make it happen!"

Jiang Yan shook his head and said softly:

"For ordinary factions, it is absolutely impossible, but for a great sect, it is easy."

"To awaken the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body, the Fire Spirit Body must practice the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art."

"This technique is a top-tier immortal art born from the heavens and earth."

"According to records, five peerless techniques were born at the beginning, and the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art was one of them."

"To fight for these immortal arts, the major top-tier sects of the cultivation world mobilized their entire strength, and the cultivation world was almost shattered."

"In the end, the sect masters of each sect came forward to negotiate; all the great sects copied these techniques and then destroyed the originals."

"Therefore, among the top-tier sects of the cultivation world, all possess these five techniques."

"Shushan is no exception."

Jiang Yan looked at Klee with a profound gaze.

These words were not his own invention; they were all recorded on the jade talismans, and he was simply relaying this information to everyone as recorded.

As for the Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art...

The moment Klee's aptitude was identified, the long-silent system spoke up.

"Preaching and teaching."

"Accepting the first disciple."

"Reward: Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art, World-Purifying Glazed Bottle."

This World-Purifying Glazed Bottle was clearly a dharma treasure given to him by the system.

As for its specific use, he could check it later.

As for this Red Emperor Burning Heaven Art...

Who else would it be for?

In other words, the system was prompting him to quickly take Klee into the sect.

From this, one could see how powerful Klee's special physique was.

Jiang Yan withdrew his thoughts, looked up at Alice, and said softly:

"No need to rush. Since you all intend to join Shushan, let's take it one by one."

"First, Lisa, you excel in alchemy and possess a top-grade lightning spirit root. Bamboo Peak excels in alchemy, and Wind Return Peak excels in artifact refining."

"You may choose one branch to join."

After some thought, Lisa asked:

"Sect Master, is there any way to improve one's talent?"

"The alchemy of Bamboo Peak includes pills that can reverse the innate, capable of recasting spirit roots."

Jiang Yan sighed and said softly:

"I believe you don't need to be so obsessed with spirit roots. I have already said that you have an unactivated special physique."

"Furthermore, such pills are extremely rare, and since you yourself already possess a top-grade spirit root, those pills would not be very effective for you."

"If you want to join Bamboo Peak for this reason, I advise you to reconsider. Cultivators must prioritize their own cultivation."

Lisa breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"Thank you, Sect Master, but I still wish to join Bamboo Peak and try."

"Very well."

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and gave Lisa a disciple token.

"Your talent will not be wasted at Bamboo Peak. Bamboo Peak currently has no Peak Master, only the head disciple of Bamboo Peak, Lishui, in charge."

"You can communicate with him later."

Lisa imitated the gestures of Ningguang and the others, cupping her hands and saying:

"I will strictly follow the Sect Master's decree."

Jiang Yan looked at Alice again and said softly:

"Alice, your strength is sufficient to be an acting Peak Master. I hear you excel in artifact refining; would you be willing to be the acting Peak Master of Wind Return Peak?"

Alice was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said:

"Sect Master, I do not wish to be a Peak Master. I only want to be with Klee. I have been busy with border affairs and have never had time to spend with her."

"Now that I can rest for a while and formally cultivate, I want to make up for the maternal love Klee has missed."

These words left Jiang Yan with nothing to say.

Making up for maternal love is, after all, human nature.

Jiang Yan sighed and said softly:

"In that case, you shall temporarily serve as the Law Enforcement Elder. The Law Enforcement Hall is responsible for patrolling Shushan and monitoring the words and deeds of the disciples."
