The Great Heaven World is permeated by Martial Dao cultivation in every aspect of life. Basically, everyone knows some martial arts, but very few achieve great success. This is fundamentally due to talent.

Most people lack the talent for cultivation and cannot sense the existence of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. This destiny means they cannot cultivate internal energy and can only practice some external martial arts, making it difficult to achieve true success.

This physique, which cannot sense spiritual energy, is called the Mortal Body, meaning a physique that can only be that of an ordinary person for a lifetime.

A physique that can sense spiritual energy is called a Spirit Body, and Spirit Bodies also have distinctions in strength.

In order of the speed of absorbing spiritual energy and comprehension of heaven and earth, Spirit Bodies can be divided into four types: low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. He Heng was originally only considered high-grade, but after receiving the origin infusion from the Myriad Heavens Treasure Mirror, his talent is now barely at the top-grade level for a Spirit Body, making him a standard genius even at the Flying Immortal Academy.

Generally speaking, even the monstrous prodigies in the great Mystic Sects are only outstanding among the top-grade Spirit Bodies. After all, even among top-grade Spirit Bodies, there are huge differences.

It's like 60 points is passing, and 100 points is also passing, but there's still a big gap.

However, no matter how big this gap is, they fundamentally belong to ordinary Spirit Bodies. But above the top-grade Spirit Bodies, there exists a physique that can crush any Spirit Body, called the Dao Body.

A Dao Body is essentially a type of Spirit Body, but it has mutated. It is more compatible with every aspect of the Great Dao of heaven and earth, thus surpassing all top-grade Spirit Bodies in cultivation talent.

Famous Dao Bodies include the Glazed Dao Body, Panwu Immortal Body, Primordial Dao Body, Sword Embryo Dao Body, and so on.

Those with a Dao Body are naturally close to the Dao, have a smooth cultivation journey, and can more easily comprehend the origin of heaven and earth and see through reality. Generally, as long as they don't die prematurely, they will definitely achieve the Cave True Realm, the level of a supreme sect leader of a great Mystic Sect.

Therefore, generally speaking, as soon as a Dao Body appears, they will be eagerly sought after by various sects and cultivated as future sect leaders.

The most famous Dao Body in the current era is the Primordial Dao Body, as the second-ranked expert on the Pure Yang Ranking possesses this physique. He is also hailed as the only one who can challenge the top-ranked person on the Pure Yang Ranking, especially since he is one of the youngest Pure Yang experts.

Of course, to achieve Pure Yang, talent, comprehension, willpower, luck, resources, and so on are all indispensable; it cannot be achieved solely by talent.

Based on the current situation, He Heng feels that Wang Bi's situation is somewhat similar to one of the legendary Dao Bodies, the Sword Embryo Dao Body! This physique is hailed as the foremost sacred body for sword cultivators.

However, He Heng also feels it's not quite right. At the very least, Wang Bi's talent is not as exaggerated as those legendary Dao Bodies. Although she is among the top students at the Flying Immortal Academy, she is not the strongest; several geniuses can match her.

Moreover, she is only expected to reach the Three Peng Realm before the age of twenty. While this is outstanding, it's not earth-shattering.

Furthermore, if she were truly a legendary Dao Body, Wang Panlong would not have failed to notice. He wouldn't need to send her to the Flying Immortal Academy; she could directly become a true disciple of a great Mystic Sect and be groomed as a sect leader.

Could it be that I'm overthinking things? He Heng frowned.

After a moment, He Heng shook his head. "Forget it, I won't think about these things. What does Wang Bi's talent have to do with me? Even if she is a Dao Body, so what? With the Myriad Heavens Treasure Mirror in hand, I don't believe I can't surpass her. As for her wanting evidence against me, hehe, Wang Yu's matter has nothing to do with me; where will she find evidence? As for that demoness, she died without even a speck of dust left; what can she do? Let her make a fuss."

He Heng chuckled. This originally had nothing to do with him. He didn't believe Wang Bi could find anything. In fact, if it weren't for his rapid, unexplainable increase in strength, coupled with the matter of the True Person's hidden treasure, He Heng would have had no reason to conceal the death of the demoness.

Now that the Mystic Sects are flourishing, all sorts of heretical and demonic paths are targets for extermination. Killing a disciple of the Crimson Fire Demonic Sect would be a great merit, but unfortunately, he couldn't go to claim the reward.

He Heng's life continued. The next few days were quite peaceful, returning to his former tranquility.

He also slowly recovered from his injuries, feeling full of vigor. He consolidated his recently broken through Hundred Bones Realm Great Perfection cultivation, and reviewed the lessons he had neglected for over thirty years. After all, the Flying Immortal Academy doesn't just require sufficient Martial Dao cultivation; one also needs to study pharmacology, talismans, formations, and other subjects. To enter a great Mystic Sect, one must have high qualities in all aspects!

This morning, He Heng left early and arrived at the academy. His injuries had completely healed, and he had to attend classes today.

To make up for his poor attendance record of over ten days, He Heng deliberately arrived very early. The academy was still very quiet at this time, with few people around.

As He Heng walked towards his classroom, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man walking towards him with a solemn and dignified expression.

"Hello, Instructor Dong!" He Heng stepped forward and greeted him. This was one of his instructors, Dong Hui, who had visited him when he had fainted.

"He Heng, how is your recovery?" Dong Hui smiled and asked.

He Heng replied respectfully, "Please don't worry, Instructor. I've fully recovered and am full of energy. Thank you for visiting me back then."

The instructor Dong seemed quite amiable. He patted He Heng's shoulder and even joked, "It's good that you've recovered. You're still young; there's no need to rush. I originally intended for you to rest well and return to the academy after some time. You're quite diligent to be back today."

"Time flows like water and never returns. Although I am young, student dares not slack off," He Heng said with determination on his slightly immature face.

"Yes, that's good. It's best to strive hard while you're young, otherwise, at my age, there will be no more opportunities," Dong Hui said, looking at He Heng with a hint of admiration, but his eyes seemed a bit distant.

He Heng looked at his gaze and then asked doubtfully, "Instructor, you are only forty or fifty now. With your Yang God realm cultivation, you are in your prime. How can you say you are old?"

"Never mind, let's not talk about this. Let's hurry to the classroom," Dong Hui sighed deeply, appearing somewhat dejected, unwilling to continue the conversation.

He Heng nodded and said no more. He knew that generally, the instructors at the Flying Immortal Academies in various parts of the Nine Provinces were disciples who hadn't fared well in the great Mystic Sects. True elite disciples would not easily set foot in the sea of suffering in the mortal world.

This Instructor Dong was clearly one of those who hadn't done well in his sect. Out of helplessness, he chose to leave those blessed lands and return to the secular world. It seemed he had just recalled some past events.

I must never be like them in the future, He Heng clenched his fist secretly.

The two moved very quickly and soon arrived at the classroom. At this time, not many people had arrived in He Heng's class; only one or two diligent students were already seated there. Seeing Dong Hui arrive, they immediately stood up to greet him. Dong Hui nodded and, seeing that there weren't many people, left first.

He Heng found a good seat, opened a book, and began to read silently.

Before long, many people arrived one after another, and the classroom filled up. Everyone sat down quietly, without much commotion.

As He Heng was immersed in his books, he suddenly felt someone behind him tap him.

He Heng turned around and saw Wang Bian, who was smiling at him. "I heard your injuries have healed, He Heng. I came to see you specifically today."

He Heng raised his head and looked at Wang Bian, seeming to sneer. "Why would you be so kind as to come see me specifically? Were you kicked out by City Lord Wang again for skipping too much class?"

"Ha, you know me too well, He Heng." Exposed, Wang Bian scratched his head awkwardly. "You know my mother died early, and my father has been heartbroken ever since and hasn't remarried. There are only three of us brothers. My eldest brother had an accident recently, and although my second sister is excellent, she's ultimately not a son. So my father has focused all his energy on me lately. It's unbearable, day in and day out."

"Hmph, you're ungrateful for what you have. If my father paid as much attention to me as yours does to you, I'd be at the peak of the One Yang Realm by now, not still not having perfected the Hundred Bones Realm like you," He Heng said irritably. He was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred towards this Wang Bian.

"Hehe," Wang Bian smiled, blushing slightly, and changed the subject. "Has my second sister bothered you these past two days? My father found out about what happened a few days ago and even disciplined her. But she doesn't seem to have given up and is still investigating you."

He Heng frowned. "She hasn't bothered me recently. As for her investigating, let her. I'm innocent, so I'm not afraid of her framing me."

"He Heng, my second sister is just stubborn like that with everyone. But she doesn't have any ill intentions towards you. It's just that she can't let go of Big Brother's death. Please don't hold it against her," Wang Bian said with some emotion.

He Heng shook his head. "How dare I hold it against Miss Wang Er? Besides, I can't beat her. I'm still worried she'll go crazy one day and chop me down with her sword."
