Chapter 1037: The Four Primordial Monkeys

Being able to cultivate in the Wuzhuang Temple was naturally a good thing for Su Fan.

One must know that this Wuzhuang Temple was a Grotto-Heaven world, no worse than the Fire Cloud Cave.

Although the Fire Cloud Cave was managed quite well by the human predecessors later, after all, there were many human predecessors in the Fire Cloud Cave, so the consumption was even greater.

Theoretically, the Fire Cloud Cave Grotto-Heaven was higher than the Wuzhuang Temple, only below the ancestral vein Grotto-Heavens like Kunlun.

But because the human predecessors moved into the Fire Cloud Cave, the consumption became larger and larger.

Before reaching the Quasi-Sage level, the Immortal Dao required a large amount of spiritual energy. Even Great Luo Golden Immortals could barely avoid cultivating to improve their cultivation, but Golden Immortals could not do that.

If they really didn't sit and cultivate for a long time, their cultivation would not be maintained.

There were quite a few human predecessors at the Golden Immortal level in the Fire Cloud Cave.

The Wuzhuang Temple was different. This Great Immortal Zhenyuanzi didn't like excitement, so he never took apprentices, and there was no one in the entire Wuzhuang Temple except for the few Daoist boys he had pointed out.

So the Innate Spiritual Energy of the Wuzhuang Temple was quite sufficient, and there was also an Innate Spiritual Root inside.

One must know that Innate Spiritual Roots breathe out origin energy and transform it into heaven and earth spiritual energy, which is quite good, similar to plants on Earth in later generations producing oxygen.

Ordinary spiritual plants might need to consume the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

But top-tier Innate Spiritual Roots like this Ginseng Fruit can actually take root in heaven and earth, but at the same time, they can absorb the Chaos origin energy outside the Primordial heaven and earth to transform it into Innate Spiritual Energy, just like the original heaven and earth fetal membrane.

The heaven and earth fetal membrane had long been shattered and could no longer have the effect of transforming Chaos origin energy.

But these top-tier Innate Spiritual Roots could still do it.

The Kunlun ancestral vein, the dojo of the Primordial Saint, actually also had Innate Spiritual Roots. Only these Innate Spiritual Roots could allow the Innate Spiritual Energy of the Grotto-Heaven not to dissipate.

Innate Spiritual Energy was naturally very beneficial to Su Fan. The washing of Innate Spiritual Energy could allow Su Fan's physical body to have a little bit of Innate divinity and could also allow Su Fan's physical body to transform again.

Especially since Su Fan practiced the method of tempering the physical body, he also had a great thirst for Innate Spiritual Energy.

This method of tempering the physical body, the Nine Refining Golden Body Decision, might not be as good as the Witch tribe's "Nine Turns Mysterious Art," and might not be as good as the "Eight-Nine Divine Art," but it was not inferior to some cultivation methods created by Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Even if it was not a complete cultivation method.

But after these years, he had been constantly deducing it, and in fact, he had supplemented quite a bit, at least supplementing the cultivation method to the level of the fifth layer. Once cultivated to the peak, his strength would be comparable to a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and his physical body would become a Sage.

Even if it couldn't compare to Yang Jian back then, it wouldn't be worse than that Yuan Hong.

In the Earth Immortal World, the most famous for tempering the physical body were Yang Jian and Yuan Hong, both of whom practiced the Eight-Nine Divine Art, a top-tier physical cultivation method.

The "Nine Refining Golden Body Decision" might not be as good as the Eight-Nine Divine Art. After all, that was a cultivation method created by an Immortal-level powerhouse in the *Swallowed Star* world, and not an ordinary Immortal-level, at least a King-level Immortal, or even a Venerable-level.

The Venerables in *Swallowed Star*, let's not talk about the realm in this Mythical World, but at least in terms of combat power, they would definitely not be too weak, at least stronger than Taiyi Golden Immortals. Su Fan was very certain of this.

So the complete "Nine Refining Golden Body Decision" from *Swallowed Star* was enough for people to cultivate to above the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

Perhaps compared to the Eight-Nine Divine Art, it might be quite inferior.

But the difficulty of cultivating the Eight-Nine Divine Art was also obvious. Otherwise, why did only Yang Jian learn it among the disciples of the three sects, or plus a Yuan Hong who stole it?

This Eight-Nine Divine Art was not unique to the Chan Sect. In fact, all three sects had it, and even in the major forces of the Primordial, this Eight-Nine Divine Art was not a secret, and many forces had copies.

But the only ones who truly succeeded in cultivating it were Yang Jian.

Is this Eight-Nine Divine Art inferior to the Immortal Dao? The path of the physical body is not inferior to the Immortal Dao at all.

The Witch and Demon tribes could dominate the ancient times, especially the Witch tribe, whose physical bodies were powerful, which was the best proof. Using their bodies to resist Innate Spiritual Treasures, who could do it? Only the Witch tribe and some Demon tribe bloodlines.

The Witches fought heaven and earth, and their physical bodies took a lot of advantage.

Even if the disciples of the three sects were arrogant and looked down on this physical means, were the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect fools?

This Eight-Nine Divine Art was clearly a top-tier cultivation method.

Leave it alone and not cultivate it?

As for this Daoist method, fearing that cultivating it would lead to being hunted down by the high-level members of the three sects, that was thinking too much.

Didn't that Yuan Hong steal it?

He was still doing well in the Heavenly Court now.

If it weren't for the fact that he participated in the calamity during the Investiture period, I'm afraid his days wouldn't be worse than Yang Jian's. In fact, even now, he was on the Investiture List, and his days in the Heavenly Court were still very good.

The only drawback was that because he had no physical body, he couldn't continue to cultivate this Eight-Nine Divine Art.

However, before the Investiture, his cultivation was not bad.

And in the Heavenly Court, because he practiced the physical body, even after being on the Investiture List and having no physical body, his combat power was not bad.

Later, he actively approached the Jade Emperor, and the Jade Emperor specially used an Innate Spiritual Root to reshape his physical body, and his strength even exceeded what it was before he was on the list.

It's just that after all, using an Innate Spiritual Root to replace the original physical body, he couldn't be as mixed as before, and coupled with the fact that his true spirit was bound to the Investiture List, he couldn't let his true spirit and physical body fully merge, so he couldn't continue to improve his cultivation.

However, combined with the Eight-Nine Divine Art, his combat power was quite strong at the Golden Immortal level.

Su Fan, after inquiring, also praised Yuan Hong.

It can be said that among the four Primordial monkeys, this Yuan Hong had the most miserable background.

The Lingming Stone Monkey, who understands changes, knows the timing of heaven, knows the advantages of the earth, and moves stars and fights, was born from the mending stone. The future achievements of this monkey were also likely the best. Although he was later forced to enter the Buddhist Sect and became a protector of the Buddhist Sect, he was also the Fighting Victorious Buddha, and also a Buddha.

His status in the Buddhist Sect was not bad, and the monkey's best strength was really not weak. With all his merit, he could also pile himself up to the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, and even had the possibility of peeking at the Quasi-Sage level.

The Six-Eared Macaque, who listens well, can observe principles, knows the past and future, and understands all things. This Six-Eared Macaque might be the earliest of the four monkeys, and it existed as early as the ancient Witch-Demon period.

However, it had never been able to obtain any good inheritance, so its cultivation was not very high.

The Red-Butt Horse Monkey, who understands yin and yang, knows human affairs, is good at entering and exiting, and avoids death and prolongs life. It can be said that among these four monkeys, this one had the best life in the beginning.

It was also born in the ancient period, and it was very likely earlier than the Six-Eared Macaque.

After all, during the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, this monkey's cultivation was already very powerful. The big demon who stirred up wind and rain when Dayu was controlling the water was this monkey, and at that time, its cultivation was already at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.

However, it was later suppressed by Dayu. ===== CHAPTER 1038 =====
