For cultivators, the physical body is a precious raft for crossing the world, while the divine soul is the oar that steers this raft.
In this boundless sea of mortal life, without oars, even the finest raft can only drift with the current and will never reach the other shore it is meant to reach.
In contrast, under Chen Shuangbai's Divine Sense, he could clearly perceive that the cultivator in front of him was a pure Martial Dao cultivator. His powerful Qi and Blood and qi were like a real star, dazzling and extremely eye-catching.
Judging from the aura he's emanating right now, he's at least a Nascent Soul Middle Stage!
After losing the control of the divine soul, this physical body simply remained quietly there... Strangely, no demons or other evil spirits ever entered it again, causing it to regain its vitality.
At this moment, the soulless body silently looked at Chen Shuangbai, its eyes empty.
"Hey!"
"If Yuandu saw this, he'd probably go crazy and rush over to snatch it!"
The Transformation Sect is skilled at crafting Yin Ghost Evil Puppets. Such a soulless body, which originally belonged to a True Lord retained most of his Qi and Blood energy and achieved the Nascent Soul stage through Martial Dao, is something that the followers yearn for more than anything else!
Just as Chen Shuangbai were wandering, the soulless body before her suddenly moved.
Then, this soulless body slowly straightened up, and the overwhelming pressure emanating from it was like the majestic aura of a towering mountain rising slowly from a valley.
Then... this physical body raised its right hand, clenched its fist, and threw a punch.
Buzz!
A terrifying buzzing sound vibrated in my ears.
Chen Shuangbai turned her head slightly, her pupils suddenly contracting as she looked at the empty-eyed, soulless body so close to her. The opponent's right fist grazed past her ear, and terrifying, scorching golden light pierced through an extremely distant realm, shattering several stars.
Like a golden fire dragon raging in the depths of the universe, it took a long time to subside.
Clang--!
A pure white, chilling Vast Cold Slaughtering Mystic Light blasted the soulless body away more than a hundred feet. Then, specks of golden light fell, summoning the radiant glow of a fairy osmanthus tree with branches full of golden white blossoms and delicate golden stamens, which enveloped Chen Shuangbai.
This is not a good sign.
A hundred feet away, the soulless body, despite being struck by the mysterious light, remained unharmed. Even the golden robe on its body was undamaged, and its empty eyes still stared blankly at Chen Shuangbai.
The next moment.
The physical body took another step forward, appearing before Chen Shuangbai like a ghost. It then raised its right fist high, and with a hum, a burst of brilliant golden light erupted before crashing down heavily!
boom!!!
The iron fist, wrapped in brilliant golden light, slammed down like a falling star onto the radiant osmanthus tree in front of Chen Shuangbai!
With a deafening roar, the celestial osmanthus tree trembled violently, and countless golden-white petals fell, turning into streaks of light that dissipated into the starry sky.
Even with the protection of the [ Swaying Moon Sunken Cold Treasure Mirror ], this immense Martial Dao power still caused Chen Shuangbai's Qi and Blood and qi to surge and his Law Power to become unstable. However, the golden-white circle of light between his eyebrows flickered a few times before stabilizing again.
Seeing the physical body attack again, Chen Shuangbai pointed her fingers lightly at it.
A Sword Essence formed from golden-white light arrived in an instant, striking the defenseless body with its full force.
clang!
Like the sound of metal clashing, the body was blasted a hundred feet away by the Frost Osmanthus Sword Essence, exploding into a cluster of stars before finally coming to a stop.
"What domineering boxing techniques!"
Since this soulless body had no divine soul residing within it, it was currently only using its original fist techniques, which were almost ingrained in its physical instincts, to fight against Chen Shuangbai.
Even so, its power was still terrifying!
"A true Martial Dao cultivator, indeed living up to his reputation."
Chen Shuangbai said, as if talking to himself, "To be able to unleash such a powerful fist technique solely based on physical instinct."
"If you were at your peak, one punch would probably be enough to severely injure me."
The physical body was naturally unable to respond to his praise. It simply assumed a fist stance again, and the golden Qi and Blood around it burned fiercely like flames, dyeing the surrounding starlight golden.
His empty eyes were fixed on Chen Shuangbai, like a tireless fighting machine, ready to launch the next attack at any moment.
Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but smile.
Now that I've figured out your patterns, why would I bother with a head-on confrontation?
The perfectly round, golden-white light between his brows began to flicker, drawing in the Grand Yin Authority from the the Unseen. Then... his figure seemed to be veiled by an invisible white gauze, completely disappearing from the sight and perception of the soulless body before him.
This Hide Form is complete Hide Form.
Whether it's the physical body, the energy flow, or even the fluctuations of the soul, everything is concealed. Unless one's realm is far higher than Chen Shuangbai's, such as someone in the Nascent Soul Late Stage who can Locking Heaven and Earth, no one can detect it.
Once Chen Shuangbai's aura could no longer be sensed, the soulless body froze in place, its empty eyes slightly turning, and the vibrant golden light on its surface gradually subsided.
Unnoticed by others, Chen Shuangbai slowly strolled to the side of the physical body and began to carefully observe it.
He slowly walked to the body, circled it, and carefully examined this seemingly perfect Martial Dao avatar.
So close, he observed it closely and gradually discovered the extraordinary nature of this physical body.
Contrary to the common perception of Martial Dao cultivators as having extremely robust physical bodies, the Martial Dao arts physique before us can only be described as physically strong.
Wearing that gleaming gold robe and with that rather handsome face, one could easily mistake him for a noble young master of a royal family.
He used his Divine Ability to see.
Within this physical body, countless fine golden lights condensed into talismanic light and shadow, connected end to end, forming three cycles of circulation. It was precisely because of these three cycles of circulation that the powerful Qi and Blood was able to be firmly locked within the physical body.
Even after countless years, they can still maintain about 80% of their strength.
But Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Although he was not Martial Dao cultivator, he had had considerable contact with Martial Dao arts cultivators, including Wei Zheng within the sect, and had also learned about the current state of Martial Dao inheritance.
Within this Martial Dao arts body, the three cycles of light formed by countless golden talismans are clearly the [ Celestial Cycle Stellar Ring Qi-Locking Art ], which was quite popular during the flourishing of Martial Dao in the Middle Ages.
The sword immortal stroked his chin, following the Martial Dao body that had lost its target and sat back down on the starlit lake, a playful expression on his face:
In other words... the predecessor of this physical body was Martial Dao Nascent Soul Cultivator from the medieval era!
