Chapter 30
Of course, the inner sect trial was an important event in the sect. It involved the interests of different peaks. Li Ming had no intention of showing off too much in the inner sect trial.
He wanted to keep a low profile so that he could continue to walk the path of body refinement.
However, he had agreed to form a team with Junior Sister Chen, and he did not want to drag her down either.
Perhaps Junior Sister Chen wanted to help him obtain the trial rewards, or perhaps it was because the inner sect trial required them to form a team to enter.
In short, he could not let down Junior Sister Chen’s trust in him.
Li Ming felt that with his strength, he could do whatever he wanted while among qi refinement cultivators.
But who knew what kind of evildoers that he could not handle might appear.
The Divine Will Sect was a large sect that had a wide collection of immortal seedlings in the Heavenly Southern Region, so they were not short of geniuses.
Disciples like Duan Xiuwen, who had a decent aptitude but a bad heart, were the minority.
The mainstream cultivators in the world of cultivators were actually quietly cultivating in their own cave abodes, waiting for an opportunity to make a name for themselves in one battle.
In the past, the inner sect would not lack such talented disciples every year.
The inner sect trial was in three days.
He still had time to further improve his strength!
He set a simple cultivation goal.
“In three days, I must completely familiarize myself with the true flame of the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art.”
“I can also cultivate to the peak of the ninth level of the qi refinement stage, or even the perfected level.”
“As for a cultivation technique for my divine soul, I’ll just wait until after the trial before going to the scripture depository to look for one…”
Li Ming walked into the cave. He was sealing up the cave with mud and preparing to enter closed-door cultivation once again.
But at this moment, as he spoke about the cultivation technique for his divine soul, he remembered that he still had a cultivation technique that he had not had the time to look at.
It was given to him by the beautiful woman in a temple when he was completing the emergency mission for the sect and went down the mountain to capture the demons.
That beautiful woman had seen through his body tempering technique and said that his Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art was an inferior version of something else. Afterward, she gave him a jade slip.
At that time, he was in a hurry to return to the sect and had obtained the purple entry right after, so he had not had the time to check the jade slip.
But now, he had just broken through both his realms, greatly increasing his strength. It was time to see what was in the jade slip.
Li Ming found the technique-transmitting jade slip in his storage bag and was about to check it with his divine sense.
He hesitated for a moment.
After all, that had been the first time he had met that beautiful woman, and she could also be a powerful ghost.
But after giving it some more thought, the beautiful woman did not seem to have any malicious intentions toward him.
Moreover, if she really wanted to do something to him, she could have simply killed him in the temple.
After a long time, Li Ming finally decided to check what was on the jade slip.
Now that his divine sense was very powerful, he tried to break open the jade slip and found that there were no restrictions. He directly invade it with his divine sense.
The jade slip turned into a stream of light and flew into his divine sense.
When he received the cultivation technique, he was shocked.
“This cultivation technique doesn’t seem ordinary!”
“So this is how it is!”
“No wonder, no wonder…”
Li Ming was surprised and happy as he had been suddenly enlightened.
A golden cultivation technique was currently floating in his now expanded sea of consciousness.
This was also a body tempering technique called the [Golden Crow Body Tempering Art], and it was divided into 12 levels.
The highest level could allow one to cultivate to the nascent soul stage!
In the world of cultivation, there were nine major stages: qi refinement, foundation establishment, core formation, nascent soul, soul formation, void refinement, dao integration, and mahayana.
The Divine Will Sect was a first-class force in the eastern continent.
It was because of its nascent soul cultivators that it was able to become the overlord of the Heavenly Southern Region.
As for the most powerful super sects in the eastern continent, they had powerful soul formation cultivators.
As for him, a small qi refinement disciple… He had acquired a cultivation technique that would allow him to reach the nascent soul stage. This was already extremely impressive.
At the very least, the scripture depository would not have such a cultivation technique.
“This Golden Crow Body Tempering Art is even more amazing than the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art…”
Having acquired the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, Li Ming did not just carelessly throw the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art to the back of his mind. Instead, he carefully studied and compared them.
He realized that the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art that he had cultivated before was derived from the first four levels of this cultivation technique!
The highest level of the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art was only the fourth level of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.
It had to be noted that the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art had a total of twelve levels!
“Just the cultivation technique derived from it can allow me to establish my martial dao foundation! Amazing!”
Li Ming took a deep breath, shocked beyond words!
That beautiful woman had great strength, and her moves were really extraordinary. Most importantly, she had given him a cultivation technique that could reach the nascent soul stage without any qualms.
This made Li Ming feel grateful for the beautiful woman’s forthright attitude.
With her knowledge and experience, it was reasonable for her to say that he was practicing an inferior version.
At that time, the beautiful woman had said that the cultivation technique he was practicing was somewhat familiar, but it was actually because the two came from the same source.
It seemed that there was a certain fate between them.
The two cultivation techniques were practically from the same source!
He could practice the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art without suffering any side effects!
He had initially believed that what he had encountered was a life-and-death crisis, but it was actually that encounter that allowed him to gain such a terrific cultivation technique.
In this ever-changing world of cultivators, it was a blessing if not a disaster. If it was a disaster, it could not be avoided.
Li Ming was overjoyed. At that time, the [Ghost Hero (Blue)] entry had not only saved his life, but it also helped him to obtain such an awesome cultivation technique.
It seemed that no matter where one was, having great charm meant being popular.
No wonder those saintesses were all so beautiful.
Then, Li Ming began to study it carefully.
He now had to deliberate how he would seamlessly switch from the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art to the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art?
The seventh level of the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art was the martial dao foundation establishment stage, and that was also its highest level…
Before this, he was still wondering why there was nothing after that.
It turned out that the fourth level of the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art was the foundation establishment stage, and the Blazing Sun Body Tempering Art did not have a follow-up cultivation technique, so it could not be improved further.
Now that he had a much more complete version of the cultivation technique, he could cultivate all the way to the nascent soul stage!
Li Ming was delighted.
This way, he would not have to worry about his body tempering cultivation technique for a short period of time.
His path to the nascent soul stage had been laid out. If that day came, he could be on equal footing with the strongest elders in the sect.
Would there be a lack of follow-up techniques?
Obviously not.
Li Ming felt that a smooth road was slowly unfolding in front of him.
He truly felt that it was the right decision to go into body tempering.
Of course, the help that the entries provided him was absolutely indispensable.
With the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art, an urgent problem was solved.
After all, body tempering was not popular, and the few body tempering techniques in the sect were from the bottom of the mountain. Naturally, there were not many.
Moreover, according to his search in the scripture depository last time, there was not even a body tempering technique that would allow him to reach the golden core or core formation stage.
Originally, he was thinking of going to the auction to try his luck.
Or he could go down the mountain and find another way.
But now, he no longer had to worry about that.
His problem of having to look for a body tempering cultivation technique being solved was an unexpected surprise.
Out of the four major aspects of technique, wealth, companion, and land, he now had the most important aspect of technique solved.
The only thing he needed to care about now was to focus on his cultivation.
Li Ming sealed the cave and began to memorize the Golden Crow Body Tempering Art.
Cultivating this body tempering cultivation technique made him feel like he was intoxicated, and he quickly immersed himself in it.
This practice went on for three days.
