Flesh-Body Apotheosis Enters the World, Soldiers Seize Wen Zhizhen from the Ranking List

"Flesh-Body Apotheosis?"

Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes, revealing an expression of interest, which Flying Leopard noticed and immediately understood.

"You must be wondering how a deity can be made from a physical body, right?" Flying Leopard waited for Qiu Yan to press for an answer.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Yan shook his head, raised a hand, and divine power surged within it like water droplets, instantly transforming into a physical body. "When a god reaches the Third Grade, Fleshly Regeneration, and the Divine Body can transform into flesh and blood. By this logic, it's not inconceivable that Flesh-Body Apotheosis can be made a god. It seems that the person who is made a god might directly possess the abilities of the Third Grade..."

Now it was Flying Leopard's turn to be surprised. "That's right, a Flesh-Body Apotheosis Master who achieves Divine Rank through physical cultivation immediately possesses the abilities of Third Grade upon assuming the divine position, and because of his profound cultivation, it is even more convenient for him to descend to the mortal realm to wage war?"

"Conquering the mortal realm?" Qiu Yan's heart stirred, grasping a key point. "Could it be that ordinary gods are not inclined to descend to the mortal realm? Only those who Flesh-Body Apotheosis have this ability?"

"Of course not." Flying Leopard shook his head. "However, once Divine Grade surpasses the Second Grade, Soul Split, with the exception of a few, find it difficult to remain in the lower realms. I don't know the specific reasons for this, but I do know it involves the stability of the Continent, but..."

He looked at the arm that had transformed into flesh and blood, and continued, "When a god's Divine Body transforms into flesh and blood, it can avoid restrictions, but the god's divine Divine Ability will be locked inside the flesh and blood. The power is limited by the physical body, and the power that can be exerted is very small."

Qiu Yan pondered, "The Divine Body transforms into a flesh and blood body, unrestrained by the lower realm? In that case, the power exerted at that time was likely determined by the cultivation level of the flesh and blood body." He raised his arm, pale and limp, just like an untrained human body.

"However, given this restriction, gods of higher Divine Rank rarely descend to the mortal realm. Even if they do, they are limited by their physical bodies. Therefore, staying in the mortal realm should be relatively safe."

As Qiu Yan spoke, several figures flashed through his mind: Eastern Capital were deities who suddenly appeared during the change of Human Path Order, and others God of Revival in the Scholar Forest, leading him to speculate on their Divine Grade.

"The specifics are beyond my knowledge." Flying Leopard said, shaking his head, looking somewhat tired, his figure slightly blurry.

Qiu Yan noticed this change and said, "It seems that a solitary soul cannot remain in the outside world for long. It must rest quietly in the furnace."

"It seems so. Let's leave it at that for now. However, I must remind you one last thing," the Shadow of the Flying Leopard stood up, his Half-Body gradually merging into the furnace, like someone about to sink into water. "If you merge with the Heavenly Court, you will be subject to restrictions, and your own Divine Office may be divided..."

"The division of Divine Office?" Qiu Yan frowned slightly, recalling Lü Liang who had been suppressed, and pondered, "Even the Divine Office are being divided, so the propagation of sacrifices, the guidance of believers, and even the distribution of divine power for Divine Striking are probably all controlled by the Heavenly Court. Could this be the Heavenly Court's constraint you mentioned before?"

"That's right, but the Heavenly Court's restrictions will be much tighter than you think, leaving few loopholes." Flying Leopard, half his body already merged into the furnace, pointed a finger at Qiu Yan's chest. "At that time, your Divine Spirit Talisman will be taken by the Heavenly Court, leaving only the Virtual Talisman. Furthermore, if you develop believers and spread rituals in the Great Rui territory, it will easily intrude into the territories of other deities, and you will be discovered and restricted. However..."

He paused, then emphasized the last sentence. "Your Humanistic Divine Path is somewhat peculiar, somewhat similar to that of Grand Confucian has gained recognition from the Human Path Order, yet it seems to have opened up a completely new path. You might achieve great things, but you still need to be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, his entire figure merged into the Copper Furnace and disappeared without a trace.

The Copper Furnace was silent, as if it were a dead object.

Inside the Copper Furnace, the divine power infused by Qiu Yan, guided by his Divine Sense, rapidly condensed. In the blink of an eye, a flame condensed in the center of the Copper Furnace, filled with Human Path energy and vaguely possessing the essence of Humanistic Fire Seed, but it was not perfect and clearly lacked something.

However, with the help of this flame, Qiu Yan's Divine Sense was able to integrate into the furnace, control it, and gradually refine it.

"Grand Confucian recognized by the Human Path Order? Pioneering a completely new path? Hmm..."

With a thought flashing through his mind, Qiu Yan reached out and grabbed a pill from the furnace, instantly filling the surroundings with the fragrance of medicine.

His Divine Eye shifted, landing on the pill. A few Fire Star flew on the surface of the pill, as if his gaze and the medicinal power had collided, creating a strange change!

Immediately afterwards, a surge of vital Qi and Blood burst forth, as rich and intense as that of Life Cultivation in the Second Realm of life cultivation!

"The essence of Qi and Blood contained in this pill should be able to replenish the consumption of the Fleshly Body, maintain the balance of life and soul, and even allow Life Cultivation to advance further. In this way, once enough is accumulated, one can try to come into contact with Dragon Qi again, but..."

Recalling the severance of the connection between his Fleshly Body and the Dragon Qi, a cold glint flashed in Qiu Yan's eyes.

"Dragon Qi is formed from the convergence of Great Rui, and it is itself the will of all living beings. The dominant force is the imperial court and the emperor. The Dragon Qi's rejection of me is likely related to this, and it won't be easy to reconnect with it. Fortunately, I have the Prosperity Capital Will as a medium. In the palace Palace Examination a few days later, I may be able to enter the palace, get close to the emperor, and have more convenient access to the imperial court! But in the end, the officialdom is still a place where Human Thoughts converge. A single thought from a superior or the emperor can affect one's fortune, which is truly unpleasant!"

As Qiu Yan was pondering this, a sudden change occurred in his Divine Sense; the Li Trigram began to move, and an image appeared in the Void—

It was a strange place. At first glance, it seemed the same as the Great Rui World, but upon closer inspection, many differences could be found.

The source of this connection is the divine Divine Husk of Feng Zhen, the Child-Giving God. On that day, Qiu Yan extracted his True Spirit and threw one of his souls into the Netherworld, causing it to become confused. The remaining remains were thrown into the <New World Observations> to test the waters.

Qiu Yan's Divine Sense were mixed in with the Divine Husk and entered the painting on the last page. Like a person falling into water, it sank continuously for a long time until it finally reached the bottom and fell into a strange place.

As the remains sank, they were nothing but a Divine Radiance. Now, as they fall, they are being controlled by Qiu Yan's Divine Sense, solidifying into a form and attempting to draw upon external power.

Call!

As the wind rose, an extremely rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surged forth, more than ten times more abundant than that of Great Rui!

"Such pure and rich Spiritual Qi!" Qiu Yan exclaimed in amazement as he sensed it from afar. He then released his senses to perceive the unusual atmosphere in the opposite world. "Hmm?"

Suddenly, a warning signal arose in my mind!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several streaks of light flew swiftly from the horizon, their speed reaching an extreme! They were aimed directly at the remains of the Child-Giving God!

A moment later, several men and women descended from the sky, put away their Swordsmanship, looked around, and showed puzzled expressions.

"I sensed a fluctuation of Spiritual Qi here just now, but why is no one here?" A young man sheathed his flying sword, raised his hand to form a hand seal, and took a step, stepping on the ground one step at a time, leaving a trail of footprints. After several steps, the footprints Spirit Attraction, forming an array that suddenly dispersed, with the airflow rushing around.

Spiritual Qi departs, intention returns, and information is fed back.

Then, the man lowered his hand seals. "Hmm? No signs of a fight? Could it be that the demons Spirit Attraction again, and fled upon seeing us approach?"

Someone nearby suggested, "Let's report this to our martial uncle."

The man making the hand seal shook his head and said, "It's a trivial matter, no need to disturb our martial uncle. We've come here to participate in the trials with other sects, it's a time to greatly enhance our sect's reputation. If we make our martial uncle worry about everything, how can we show our abilities?"

"Senior Brother Zhao is right." The others echoed, said a few more words, and then each rode their swords and quickly left. Only one young man in blue hesitated slightly, glanced at the soil under his feet, and then left after taking a closer look.

After everyone left, the soil churned, and divine power flowed out, reforming the form of the Child-Giving God, though it appeared slightly weaker than before.

"Those people must all be Daoist Sect disciples. They were using Method Formula and channeling Spiritual Qi for reconnaissance, but they didn't discover this divine remains."

Sensing an alarm, Qiu Yan manipulated his Divine Husk to burrow into the earth, concealing himself while also preparing for exposure. After all, divine power was extraordinary, and he was still unfamiliar with this world, possessing only a Divine Sense attached to it, unable to control it at will, inevitably overlooking some things. Unexpectedly, the other party did not notice.

The next moment, with a Divine Sense, the divine remnant slowly moved, its divine power gradually consuming, yet it could not detect even a trace of incense smoke. This place was actually a place where the Divine Path no longer existed!

"Could this world be...?"

Lost in thought, Qiu Yan pulled himself out of his reverie, then opened his mouth and swallowed the pill held by the Divine Spirit Body.

Gods do not have a digestive system, but with their abundant divine power, they can simulate a similar effect. In no time, the medicinal power is extracted and reduced to a single point.

Qiu Yan thought for a moment, then activated the medicinal power and threw it into the Divine Pool. He wrapped it with divine power and Incense Faith, and let it merge into the Soul Aperture at the bottom of the pool. After a slight loss, it reached his Fleshly Body, radiated out from his Divine Soul, and spread to his limbs and bones.

Right now, in front of the Imperial Academy, squads of soldiers are gathering. The Confucian scholars who caused the disturbance have calmed down. Although they are still afraid, they know that they cannot back down and are still arguing with others.

"Gentlemen, His Majesty is already aware of this situation and has issued an edict stating that this act of fraud will be dealt with. You are all pillars of the nation and should know your place. Please leave now. At most, there will be an explanation within a day."

Several middle-aged officials were speaking, and as the emperor's name was uttered from their mouths, the surrounding Dragon Qi shifted, the bewitching black aura dissipated, and the minds of the many examinees became clearer.

Immediately afterward, two strong and powerful men walked towards Wen Zhizhen.

The two men, dressed in brocade armor that gleamed, were clearly not ordinary soldiers. When they reached Wen Zhizhen, they reached out and grabbed her shoulder without any hesitation.

The scholar from Jiangnan opposite him was pale-faced and his eyes were full of confusion. When he saw someone grabbing him, he panicked slightly, but quickly calmed down and began to reason with them. He used the Sage Spirit in his words to try to distract the other party and create an opportunity to save himself.

Unexpectedly, the two only frowned slightly and were not affected, instead putting their hands on Wen Zhizhen's shoulders.

"Stop!" At this moment, Xu Ran walked over from the side.
