Chapter 77: Second Realm, Opening the Divine Power Sea, the Gate of Cultivation

Lu Zhangsheng ah, this Shentong Realm is the second major realm of cultivation.

To push the fleshly body's potential to the extreme, one opens up a Divine Power Sea within the body.

And the vaster the Divine Power Sea, the richer and purer the Divine Power one possesses.

Divine Son Peak, in the main hall, Eight Xuan Ancestor sat cross-legged; he, who was always irritable and strict in temperament.

At this moment his face was full of smiles and kindness, and his words were very gentle.

This was a complete change from his previous appearance.

He was also very patient.

Before him.

Seated was Lu Zhangsheng.

Since the last test of his Fleshly Body Realm strength, several days have passed.

During this period he basically kept adapting to his own condition.

As for the outside world's uproar caused by his breaking the record and becoming the first in history in the Fleshly Body Realm, he neither sought to understand nor wanted to understand, for to him cultivation remained most important at present.

Now Eight Xuan Ancestor has also made sufficient preparations, so he has come today.

To teach Lu Zhangsheng how to break through from the Fleshly Body Realm into the Shentong Realm.

During this process.

He explained it in a very easy-to-understand, progressive manner.

Fearing to miss something, lest the child before him fail to grasp the essence.

"I understand; it is to continue absorbing the various essences of heaven and earth to temper the body."

"To bring the fleshly body to an extreme state, thereby undergoing a transformation that combines with the spirit, right?"

"And after that? You didn't say earlier, how does this realm unleash the true power of my physique?"

After listening for a while, Lu Zhangsheng suddenly understood: the fleshly body and spirit are connected.

Then one can within the body unleash a power never before seen.

It has various different names.

Magical power, Divine Power, and so on.

It is also an extremely important step in cultivation.

Of course, what he cared about more was that his physique could finally be of use.

"Not bad." Eight Xuan Ancestor stroked his beard, smiling as he continued: "So the key to the Shentong Realm lies in the spirit, that is, the transformation of the divine soul, which can be influenced by the fleshly body; the two complement each other."

"And you, Lu Zhangsheng, although your physique has been tempered to the limit, you have not yet touched the cultivation of the divine soul, so we must proceed slowly."

"As for developing your physique's potential, it is still too early to speak of; first try doing as I say."

"Remember, you must proceed in the manner of the second chapter of the Heaven-Mending Immortal Scripture."

Lu Zhangsheng's mind bore the complete Supreme Immortal Scripture.

Eight Xuan Ancestor was quite aware of this.

He also knew that only after coming into contact with a certain realm would it manifest.

Of course, one must first begin cultivating the divine soul, otherwise it won't work.

The child before him, although his innate physique is unparalleled throughout history,

but Eight Xuan Ancestor felt we should still proceed slowly.

"When I first condensed the divine soul, until I opened up the Divine Power Sea and reached the Shentong Realm, it was not achieved overnight."

So in the end he directly added: "Your case may be much faster, but it still requires a process."

It is not a personal setback, but cultivation is simply like this,

After all.

Even if one is heaven-defying, one cannot break the natural order.

In a moment, can one grasp the truth of cultivation? "Is that so?"

Lu Zhangsheng, upon hearing this, immediately nodded, having no doubt whatsoever in the Elder Ancestor's words.

But after hearing all this, he really wanted to say something: just a few days ago he had just fused the Supreme Divine Bone and condensed the Innate Divine God Thought, making his divine soul extraordinarily strong.

Simply put, his cultivation in this regard has actually been completed.

But seeing Eight Xuan Ancestor so confident, he then swallowed his words.

After all, it's the Elder Ancestor; speaking directly would certainly not do. Immediately,

Lu Zhangsheng then stopped thinking further and took a deep breath.

Then without hesitation, following Eight Xuan Ancestor's words, he also connected fleshly body to divine soul.

The next moment, just as when cultivating the Fleshly Body Realm, a vast chapter appeared.

It simply floated directly into his mind.

The stars turned and then continually shattered.

Golden characters fell one after another.

That was the Divine Power Chapter of the Heaven-Mending Immortal Scripture.

As an Immortal Scripture, even though it is merely fragmentary, it has given the Lu Family its present stature.

Now the complete version will be even stronger, which is why the various Elder Ancestors have not bothered to teach him various cultivation methods, for in the present age what doctrine could compare to the complete Heaven-Mending Immortal Scripture?

At this moment, Eight Xuan Ancestor focused his gaze entirely on Lu Zhangsheng.

"The first time connecting fleshly body to divine soul to open up the Divine Power Sea is difficult."

"Even with an ultimate physique, supreme talent, and the aid of an Immortal Scripture, it is still difficult to succeed directly."

He opened his eyes, full of anticipation: "Just right, Lu Zhangsheng, in this situation you can understand what true cultivation is."

Eight Xuan Ancestor was very clear that this junior was truly extremely special, and on the cultivation path it would undoubtedly be exceptionally smooth.

But he also hoped in his heart that this process would involve a few more setbacks.

This was the same as what all the Elder Ancestors thought.

Entering the divine ability with the flesh body is a key step, after all reaching the second realm of cultivation.

Only then does it truly count as having stepped into the gate of cultivation.

However.

Just as Eight Xuan Ancestor was thinking.

He wondered how many attempts and how long it would take for this junior to succeed.

Suddenly, a unique aura appeared on Lu Zhangsheng's body.

He also saw on the opponent's forehead, rays of light slowly shooting out.

"This is soul power, and moreover, very powerful soul power—how could this be?"

Seeing this, Eight Xuan Ancestor was utterly dumbfounded, for he could be certain that even if the other party had been born a sage, they had not undergone cultivation; even if their flesh body was strong, their soul should still be weak.

But what about now?

Lu Zhangsheng had only just begun to cultivate.

Using the strength of his flesh body to communicate with his own soul, he directly succeeded and thereby evoked the power within.

"No way—could he have directly succeeded in one go in opening the Divine Power Sea?" Eight Xuan Ancestor was utterly dumbfounded.

His expression was filled with shock, somewhat incredulous, because just a moment ago.

He still hoped that this step would give Lu Zhangsheng some setbacks.

But who could have expected that, just then, buzzzz~

Roaring sounds echoed from within Lu Zhangsheng's body.

This was him, following the method of the Heaven-Mending Immortal Scripture, circulating the immense power within his flesh body.

Because this power was too strong, it also caused the entire hall to tremble.

At this moment, Lu Zhangsheng also discovered that the Supreme Divine Bone on his forehead emitted rays of light, representing the image of the primordial deity's years, which became increasingly clear; looking closely, it was exactly like his own body.

Accompanying the appearance of those lights, soul power surged forth, infusing his limbs and bones.

This caused his lower abdomen, the so-called Qi Sea Dantian, to begin trembling.

Then, boundless Divine Light covered it.

Boom—this instant.

Lu Zhangsheng seemed to hear the most primordial sound between heaven and earth, as if the great universe were exploding.

Immediately thereafter, his qi and blood surged within, turning into a golden ocean that was fully released.
