Gales howled above Blazing Sun Peak.
Jiang Yan and Su Qingxuan stood facing each other, power surging ceaselessly around them until a sharply defined vacuum formed between the two.
Crack!
Crack!
At this moment, Su Qingxuan had undergone a drastic transformation from his usual state.
His body swelled ever larger, his skin turning bronze as muscles bulged like coiling dragons. Each breath rumbled heavily, as though thousands of soldiers and horses were charging through his body.
"Elder Jiang, the cultivation method I practice is the Golden Body Zhenyue Technique."
Su Qingxuan looked at Jiang Yan and declared in a ringing voice,
"This technique is a supreme body-refining method passed down from ancient times. It pursues enlightenment through the flesh—one might well call it breaking ten thousand arts with a single overwhelming strength."
Then he paused, his voice filled with emotion.
"Cultivating such a method is extraordinarily difficult, far more so than ordinary divine abilities. One must temper the muscles and bones under crushing weights, nourish the internal organs with spiritual liquid from heaven and earth, and obtain heaven-defying opportunities before achieving anything."
"For me to have brought this technique to full mastery today, a little talent played its part, but far more credit belongs to the sect's nurturing and several fortuitous blessings."
"Today, I shall use this body-refining divine ability to seek a lesson from you, Elder Jiang."
"Good!"
"Ever since entering the sect, I have heard of the might of the Golden Body Zhenyue Technique. Now I finally have the chance to experience it."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly at his words.
Though the path of body refinement was harder than refining qi or the spirit, its power was boundless at its greatest depths. The flesh could rival ancient divine weapons. It could truly be called:
Unstoppable against all defenses!
