Ultimate Body Refining Technique
Only those in the Mystic Body Realm could cultivate it?
An Bulang chuckled.
He was at the Profound Body Eleventh Layer, so that should count as the Mystic Body Realm too, right?
An Bulang had never imagined that he would actually have another chance to cultivate this technique.
As for why he had chosen this technique, the reason was simple. It was the highest-grade technique he could cultivate at his current realm, and its potential for growth was nearly limitless. It belonged to the most supreme and mysterious class of techniques in the universe.
"Before, I couldn't bear to discard my cultivation."
"Now it's perfect. My cultivation is already gone, so there's no question of whether I can bear to part with it or not. I can finally cultivate this technique..."
An Bulang rubbed Tuantuan and placed it on his shoulder. Then he began circulating the cultivation method, intending to bring the Cosmic Annihilation Creation Art to the beginner stage.
The Cosmic Annihilation Creation Art was called the Ultimate Body Refining Technique by the Realm King Vera. It had four major stages: the Astonishing Spirit Body, the Destruction Body, the Cosmic Body, and the Creation Body.
To cultivate the first stage, the Astonishing Spirit Body, one had to open the Eight Spirit Acupoints: the Shenshu Acupoint, Shenxuan Acupoint, Shenji Acupoint, Shenquan Acupoint, Shenheng Acupoint, Shenyang Acupoint, Shengou Acupoint, and Shenxing Acupoint. Once all eight acupoints were opened, the Astonishing Spirit Body would reach completion, granting power that could shake heaven and make ghosts weep. With a mere lift of the hand or movement of the foot, one could split mountains and sever seas.
Opening the Shenshu Acupoint was the simplest. One only needed to circulate the cultivation method and use spiritual energy to force it open.
The Shenshu Acupoint was located somewhere at the back of An Bulang's head. Despite his vast knowledge, he had never known there was an acupoint there. Half doubtful, An Bulang absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, circulated it in the prescribed manner, and slammed it toward a certain spot described by the technique.
Boom boom boom...
Spiritual energy crashed against the back of his head.
The back of his head hurt a little.
Yet there was no reaction at all.
But An Bulang was not someone who retreated in the face of difficulty. He persisted with tremendous patience.
The spiritual energy continued battering away.
Boom boom boom...
Puff puff puff...
Bang bang bang...
He kept crashing away like that for half a shichen.
An Bulang nearly had his brains battered stupid by the spiritual energy.
Yet there was still no reaction!
Damn it! Could I have cultivated some fake technique?!
An Bulang was already cursing furiously in his heart.
But curses aside, the spiritual energy kept slamming into his head.
An Bulang had always possessed a stubborn streak. Others would not turn back until they hit a wall; he would not turn back even after hitting it, and would even want to see whether his head was harder or the wall's stones were tougher!
Boom!!
Another violent impact struck.
An Bulang's entire body trembled. Brilliance burst from his eyes as he felt himself reach the peak.
The Shenshu Acupoint...
Had opened!!
A spiritual energy vortex appeared once more.
A massive amount of spiritual energy surged into An Bulang's body, devoured by it like a whale swallowing the sea.
The aura around him underwent a complete transformation, becoming denser and more powerful. The bones within his body crackled, their hardness increasing yet again. At the same time, a golden-patterned totem emerged over his chest: a divine beast radiating an ancient, primordial aura, with the lower half of a giant python, gazing down upon all things beneath heaven with an overbearing expression.
At the same time, his blood and vitality began to surge and boil, rolling ceaselessly like tidal waves.
"The Shenshu Acupoint can comprehensively enhance the body's strength. Just upon entering the beginner stage, the blood and vitality in my body has increased by one-third. It truly deserves to be called the Ultimate Body Refining Technique. Looks like the Realm King Vera wasn't spouting nonsense." An Bulang opened his eyes, surprise written across his face.
One had to know that his blood and vitality had already reached an extraordinarily terrifying level. Even taking pills would make it difficult to increase it so dramatically in an instant. Yet now, he had merely rammed open an acupoint, and his blood and vitality had increased by one-third... Even with his heaven-defying experience, he found this technique somewhat unbelievable.
And the increase in blood and vitality was only secondary.
Most importantly, he knew that the path he was taking truly worked!!
The Shenshu Acupoint had been opened.
Next, he could attempt the Shenxuan Acupoint.
Opening the Shenxuan Acupoint required an Extreme Yin Item, an exceptionally rare Heavenly Material or Earthly Treasure. An Bulang did not possess such a thing at the moment, so he could only set the matter aside for now.
An Bulang glanced outside the window. It was deep into the night, and there was nothing he could do anyway, so he might as well get some proper sleep. The battles these past few days had been so intense that he had not slept well at all. With that thought, he drifted into a deep sleep.
The next morning.
The morning bell hummed.
A new day had begun.
Knock knock knock came from An Bulang's door, accompanied by a sweet voice. "Brother Bulang, wake up... I prepared a love breakf—pah, a loving breakfast for you. Come try it quickly!"
The moment An Bulang heard that, he could not help sneering. Did she really think he would fall for such a thing? How naive! He, An Bulang, the Son of the Immortal Emperor, a Peerless Heavenly Chosen who stood proudly above the world—how could a mere breakfast possibly win him over?
"Mmm... It smells so good... Brother Bulang, if you don't open the door soon, Yinyin won't be able to resist eating all the breakfast on the tray." A crisp, melodious voice came from outside again, along with the sound of someone chewing on meat buns.
"Don't! Have mercy on the food! I'm coming, I'm coming right now!" An Bulang cried out, immediately getting up and opening the door.
The moment he opened it, he saw Ji Yinyin's pure and radiant smile.
Her little hands, fair as jade, held up a tray. Her eyes curved like crescent moons as she sweetly said, "Brother Bulang, good morning."
"Good morning." An Bulang did not linger over her face, beautiful enough to leave people dazed. Instead, he directly snatched the tray and walked back into his room.
Ji Yinyin watched him act as though someone might steal his food, and her teeth itched with anger. Still, she followed him inside.
She propped her chin on one hand against the table while reaching out with the other to snatch buns from An Bulang. Her gentle eyes, like autumn waters, kept circling around him as she directly asked, "Brother Bulang, are you leaving the royal palace?"
"Yeah." An Bulang nodded absentmindedly.
The Azure Kingdom was only a small nation. He had merely been passing through.
"Master, besides taking me with you, do you plan to take anyone else?" Ji Yinyin cautiously probed in a soft voice.
She knew that several fox spirits had crossed paths with An Bulang here. For example, the devastatingly beautiful Ji Hongxue, the soft, fragrant, and alluring Wu Wanyue, and that cold and distant Qin Shiyue. Though Qin Shiyue was in another country, she could not yet be ruled out as a threat!
"Huh? What do you mean, besides taking you with me? Did I ever say I was taking you?" An Bulang blinked in surprise.
Rumble!!
Ji Yinyin stood frozen on the spot as though she had been struck by lightning.
"N-No... why? I'm your disciple! What kind of master doesn't take his disciple along?" the girl asked, her face full of shock.
"It's perfectly normal for a master not to take disciples along. I've seen seniors with a hundred thousand disciples. Does that mean wherever that senior goes, he has to bring all one hundred thousand disciples with him? Wouldn't that be ridiculous?!" An Bulang said as he ate a bun.
Ji Yinyin's eyes instantly turned red. The bun she had snatched suddenly tasted like wax, and she no longer wanted to eat it.
She felt the crisis drawing closer. How could she still have the leisure to fight over buns? How could she still have the leisure to worry about threats from other fox spirits? Even her position as the number-one favored consort was about to become unstable!!
"Master... You gave me a new life. I can never repay the kindness you've shown me. Can't you just let me offer myself to you?" Ji Yinyin said, her eyes red as though tears might spill at any moment.
As she spoke, the girl leaned forward and slid her slender jade hand lightly across the fair, delicate collarbone exposed beneath the open neckline of her lavish palace robes. Autumn waters shimmered within her reddened eyes, her seductive gaze soft as silk. A trace of youthful innocence remained on her flawless face, making her incomparably captivating.
"Brother Bulang..." Ji Yinyin leaned closer. Beneath the loose collar of her palace robe, snowy white skin flickered in and out of sight, while her rosy lips parted slightly.
She was extraordinarily beautiful. To ordinary people, she possessed absolutely terrifying killing power, let alone when she was making such provocative movements.
An Bulang even caught a faint, elusive fragrance lingering around the tip of his nose.
An indescribable flame suddenly ignited in his lower abdomen...
"Holy shit! You actually used a charm technique on me?!"
