Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation.

Chapter 306 Third-Order Body Refinement
Enveloped in a thick fog, Li Ji'an's divine sense was unable to penetrate it, causing his alarm bells to ring loudly as he began to think of a way to save his life.

However, upon hearing Wu Weixiong's voice, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't that he pinned his hopes on old friends, but rather that he had already practiced the "Divine Treasure Body Forging Technique" cultivated by Wu Weixiong in this life, and knew the vital points of his physique.

At least if they really started fighting, Wu Weixiong wouldn't be able to overpower him with his physical strength.

Furthermore, although Wu Weixiong has already formed his core, it is only a false core. In terms of magical power and aura, it is similar to that of his previous life. In this life, he has cultivated a high-grade earth-level cultivation technique. Although he is only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, he does not have the sense of powerlessness that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators feel towards a false core cultivator.

Moreover, his cultivation technique is characterized by its profound and enduring nature. If they were to actually fight, Wu Weixiong, a fake cultivator, would find it difficult to kill him quickly.

Of course, most importantly, he still has the third-tier spirit talisman, third-tier poison, and trump cards such as Guagua and Little Fire Spirit from his previous life.

Even if we take a step back and assume the worst, escaping from Wu Weixiong's clutches wouldn't be a problem.

"So you're a fellow martial artist, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Upon hearing this, Master Meng's expression changed slightly.

Master Ziyang is one of the four Dharma Kings who protect the Jueying Sect. He is a cultivator with the False Core stage and is also skilled in insect control. His strength should not be underestimated.

"Enough with the nonsense. The sect leader has ordered that the Shadowless Sect does not wish to clash with the Merchant Alliance. Therefore, I, Wu, am merely using the Chaos Jar to trap the spirit ship. Otherwise, if the Chaos Jar were fully activated, you know the consequences!" Wu Weixiong remained aggressive and thuggish.

Upon hearing the words "Chaos Jar," Master Meng's expression darkened once more.

The Shadowless Sect is determined to succeed this time!
The Hun Tian Guan is the sacred artifact of the Jueying Sect, and it is said that it may have once been a spiritual treasure.

Although the treasure was already broken when the Shadowless Sect Leader discovered it, and there was no spirit within it, its power was estimated to be less than one-tenth or one-twelfth of its peak strength. However, it still definitely possessed the power of at least a mid-grade third-rank magic weapon.

Although the protective array of the spirit ship could block True Core cultivators, it dared not withstand the attack of the Chaos Jar.

Another major supernatural power of the Chaos Jar is the Chaos Mist, which is said to be able to affect even the primordial spirit of a True Monarch.

Therefore, in the current situation, the other party holds the dominant position.

"Master Wu, may I speak to you in private?" Master Meng pondered for a moment and then probed through telepathy.

Wu Weixiong, however, made no attempt to hide anything and said, "I have always been upright and honest. Speak your mind without any pretense!"

Master Meng's eyelids twitched; he was helpless in the face of such a boorish person.

Left with no other choice, he could only awkwardly say, "Master Wu, our Merchant Alliance values ​​reputation above all else. We have already promised the other party this time. Could you please be lenient and spare some spiritual resources to avert disaster?"

Businessmen have always been accustomed to using spiritual resources to solve problems, and it has proven effective time and again.

But this time they encountered a tough obstacle.

"Don't try that with me. Once I capture them, they'll all be mine! Open the magic array immediately!" Wu Weixiong wasn't buying it.

Master Meng looked embarrassed and had no choice but to step aside and activate the magic array.

After all, according to the rules of the Merchant Alliance, apart from selling spiritual resources, they are not allowed to arbitrarily interfere in the war between any two sides.

The fact that the spirit ship brought the group from Tiancang Domain back to Wanshang Domain was a private act by him and several other merchant guilds. If nothing goes wrong, all will be fine, but if something does go wrong, they will all face serious consequences!

Moreover, the Shadowless Sect's approach was based on diplomacy before resorting to force, and it was aimed at his former enemies, making it difficult for him to oppose them against the entire Merchant Alliance.

Most importantly, it's not worth it.

Based on the intelligence he had access to, it was highly likely that the Myriad Laws True Lord had perished.

Even if the so-called Pill King, Master Chun Yuan, knew afterward that he had failed to protect the person he had entrusted with his mission, he would most likely have no chance to come looking for him.

As for reputation?

Worthless in the face of profit!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" As Master Meng made his decision, Wu Weixiong led a group of people and instantly flew out of the mist, surrounding the spirit ship.

A moment later, at Master Meng's signal, the members of the Chamber of Commerce did not stop them and allowed the Shadowless Cult members to enter the spirit ship.

This time, several chambers of commerce violated regulations by bringing nearly two hundred cultivators from the Tiancang Domain onto the spirit ship. Apart from Li Ji'an and his two companions and Sima Yu and his two companions, most of the others were in the lower decks.

"Hmph! Whose identity token is this? An inner disciple of the Qingjiang Sect... Tsk tsk, now you realize this identity is a hot potato?"

"Stop pretending. Your Li Yang Purple Flame magic power is too obvious. Why don't you just surrender?"

"Hahaha, Heaven has eyes! It has sent you, you beast, to my feet! I will tear you to pieces!"

……

"Fellow Daoist, spare my life! Fellow Daoist, spare my life! I have already left the sect and am willing to join the Shadowless Sect. I will swear to serve you to the death!"

"It's a misunderstanding, a real misunderstanding. I am truly not a disciple of any sect."

"Senior, spare my life! I am merely a cultivator from a small family in Daoyuan Prefecture who fled for my life. I absolutely have no connection with the Demon Palace or the evil sects!"

……

In an instant, the lower deck became noisy.

There were moments of joy at achieving merit, moments of desperate pleas for mercy, and moments of a cornered beast fighting desperately.

Soon, Wu Weixiong's men arrived at the second floor.

The second deck was the residence of the guild leaders, but some refugee cultivators upgraded their cabins with spiritual funds, and there were nearly twenty people there at the moment.

Li Ji'an was fully aware of this cleansing process.

Clearly, the Shadowless Sect has irreconcilable conflicts with the ruling class within the Heavenly Cang Domain.

When they meet, it's a brutal fight to the death.

However, the members of the Shadowless Sect did not make things difficult for those who were not from the Holy Palace sects within the Heavenly Azure Domain. They extorted some spiritual funds from each of them and then let them go.

Finally, Wu Weixiong led his capable subordinates to the top floor.

"Sister Guo, you..." Yao Rui, who had been pretending not to know Guo Wanzhi's identity as a disciple of the Biyun Sect, couldn't help but worry at this moment.

I was also worried about her.

Although they were fleeing, the sect disciples did not change their habit of carrying their identity tokens.

In addition, the cultivation methods they practice are easily recognizable to those who know them well.

Guo Wanzhi was already on tenterhooks, and Yao Rui's reminder made her even more anxious.

Looking back, I found that Yao Rui also looked anxious.

She then realized that this female cultivator, who had never revealed her true appearance, must also be a disciple of a sect.

However, over the past six months, Guo Wanzhi has been able to sense Yao Rui's kindness and closeness, and has also developed some feelings for her.

"Sister, good people are always protected by heaven, don't be afraid!" Guo Wanzhi stepped forward, took Yao Rui's hand, and comforted her softly.

"Hey, you're Sister Guo's senior brother, aren't you going to think of a way?" Yao Rui had been observing Li Ji'an's expression. Seeing that he remained calm and casual throughout, she judged that he was not a disciple of a sect and would definitely be able to escape this calamity.

At this moment, she couldn't help but beg him.

However, she only asked Li Ji'an to save Guo Wanzhi.

"Take it easy and see what happens!" Li Ji'an had already sensed the magical artifact tightly held in Yao Rui's sleeve and spoke up to remind her.

He still couldn't judge Wu Weixiong's attitude towards him, and he didn't place all his hopes on Wu's character.

"Wu Weixiong, how dare you!" Just then, a loud shout came from Sima Yu's cabin.

Li Ji'an had been keeping a close eye on that place with his divine sense. When Wu Weixiong first saw Sima Yu, he was overjoyed, clearly having encountered a big fish.

When he was wanted by Spirit Beast Mountain and the Liu family of Beast Taming, the Myriad Laws Palace captured him.

Ultimately, due to his physical cultivation strength and his second-tier Earth-Splitting Bear spirit pet, a soul restriction was placed on him, forcing him to enter the Boundless Domain in place of the Wanfa Palace's true disciple. Fortunately, he survived and, with good luck, successfully helped the Wanfa Palace obtain the treasures within that secret realm.

After going through countless hardships to return to the Wanfa Palace, he was only given a nominal position as an outer disciple, and they were not even willing to give him the five-hundred-year-old Heavenly Heart Grass that had been promised at the beginning.

Moreover, what outsiders don't know is that after handing the treasure over to the Wanfa Palace, he almost couldn't get out.

Some suggested killing him to silence him.

If he hadn't planned ahead and publicized his and the Wanfa Palace's good deeds and karmic results on his way back to the Wanfa Palace, the Wanfa Palace wouldn't have killed him because of his reputation.

However, a vicious soul restriction was also placed on him.

This soul restriction not only bound his soul, but also left him with almost no hope of making any further progress in his cultivation.

It wasn't until he fled to this place a hundred years ago that he encountered the leader of the Shadowless Sect, who lifted the restrictions on his soul, giving him hope of achieving the Core Formation.

Therefore, his hatred for the Palace of Ten Thousand Laws was truly a life-or-death feud, a hatred that blocked his path!

Sima Yu's two fake Dan attendants had prepared enough spiritual resources to buy his life, but no matter how much they lowered themselves and tried to please him, Wu Weixiong remained unmoved.

At this moment, Sima Yu could no longer tolerate it.

In his eyes, Wu Weixiong was nothing more than a fake elixir cultivator, and judging from his magical power, he was not even as good as the two close attendants around him.

Moreover, he also had the life-saving trump card given to him by Master Chun Yuan, so he really looked down on Wu Weixiong.

"Hahaha, young master, with such demeanor and courage, you're only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet you have two True Immortals protecting you. Your identity is not simple. May I ask your guidance?" Wu Weixiong laughed instead of getting angry.

"Hmph, you mere servant of three surnames, how dare you inquire about my name?" Sima Yu's eyes were filled with disgust, his posture arrogant.

However, the two bodyguards beside him looked desperate, exchanged a glance, and were already prepared to die.

"boom!"

Both of his attendants were veterans of the Wanfa Palace, seasoned by countless battles.

Since it's unavoidable, let's strike first!

"Young Master, run!" The two fake Core Formation cultivators joined forces to attack Wu Weixiong, a fake Core Formation cultivator, but they lacked confidence and allowed Sima Yu to escape from the start.

"Hahaha!" Wu Weixiong laughed uncontrollably when he saw the two men attacking.

A magnificent black and gold robe billowed as laughter echoed through the air.

In an instant, his bronze skin was exposed to the air, making the faces of the two old men in front of him glow with a golden light.

"Clang!" The next moment, the two people's magical attacks landed on Wu Weixiong's bronze skin.

To everyone's astonishment, Wu Weixiong not only did not activate his protective magic shield, but also did not dodge; instead, he took the hit head-on with his physical strength.

"..." Sima Yu, who hadn't yet reacted, was dumbfounded.

He was able to withstand the combined attack of two fake core cultivators with his physical body!
"Third-tier Body Refinement!"

He finally understood the reason for the despair of the two fake elixir attendants.

"He actually broke through to the third level of body refinement!" Li Ji'an was equally shocked.

Only after practicing the "Divine Treasure Body Forging Technique" in this lifetime did he realize how difficult this body-refining technique was.

Compared to the body cultivation technique passed down to him by Chen Zhaohu in his previous life, which only required the demon core of the Golden Armored Beast to advance from the first to the second level, the path ahead had already been paved and there were clear steps to follow.

However, this ancient "Divine Treasure Body Forging Technique" follows the methods of that ancient era.

The five internal organs correspond to the five elements, and it is said that they need to be compatible with spiritual essences of the same attribute, but Li Ji'an had no idea which kind of compatibility it was.

Even how to sense spiritual energy is still only half-understood by him.

Even after obtaining the cultivation technique from Wu Weixiong in his previous life and reading Wu Weixiong's insights, he himself did not know what he had used when he advanced to the second level.

They had no idea how to absorb the spiritual energy.

At that time, Li Ji'an could only sigh that he was really lucky.

However, at this moment, he couldn't help but re-examine Wu Weixiong.

It doesn't make sense that I got promoted twice in a row without even knowing why.

"Could it be that all those insights and experiences in the cultivation techniques are fake?" He couldn't help but feel a little scared.

At the same time, some people became wary.

Now that he has advanced to the third level of body refinement, his previous vital points and acupoints are likely to have changed.

Moreover, the third-order body refinement is not comparable to the second-order body refinement!

It is no exaggeration to say that Wu Weixiong's third-level body refinement is the best in the history of the Tiancang Domain that Li Ji'an knows!

In the past six thousand years since the ancient era, no one in the records and legends of the Tiancang Domain has ever broken through to the third level of body refinement.

A third-tier body cultivator can fight a mid-stage Core Formation True Person in close combat, and even poses a certain threat to the protective magic shield of a late-stage Core Formation Master!
Li Ji'an frowned, quietly took a step back, and decisively contacted Master Meng with his divine sense.

However, Master Meng was even more shocked than him at this moment, and had no mind to pay attention to him.

"Third-tier body cultivator!"

He couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Fortunately, he had just made a wise choice; otherwise, if a real fight had broken out, he, a true pseudo-cultivator, probably wouldn't have lasted three breaths.

"Ah!" Just as everyone was in shock, a wail rang out.

But then Wu Weixiong displayed his half-step golden body physique, and with just one step, he arrived in front of a fake Dan-level attendant.

"Shrinking the earth to an inch! Is this the miraculous power of a third-tier body cultivator, or the speed boost after breaking through the limits of physical strength?" Li Ji'an's eyes widened suddenly.

Just a moment ago, he barely managed to catch the trajectory with his divine sense.

As for ordinary early-stage True Core cultivators, they would probably have no chance of reacting.

Thus, with this ability to shrink the distance to an inch, Wu Weixiong, a third-level body cultivator, can fight against a mid-stage True Core cultivator within a hundred feet around him!
"Bang!" Wu Weixiong chose the most brutal method to end the life of the fake Dan attendant.

Only then did he leisurely look at the other fake Dan attendant who had already escaped.

Just as he was about to exceed a hundred feet in distance, Wu Weixiong swayed and took a step forward, blocking his way.

"Clang!" The fake Dan's attendant was unable to stop in time and actually crashed into it, making a sound like a golden bell ringing.

At the same time, the fake pill that he originally wanted to self-destruct was instantly crushed by Wu Weixiong!
"..."

All eyes were drawn to the blood-soaked beast in the center of the room, and Sima Yu couldn't help but tremble.

Even Yao Rui, who always looked down on outsiders and considered herself superior, was swallowing hard at this moment.

Guo Wanzhi's heart was pounding like a drum.

It must be said that Wu Weixiong's appearance, with his unparalleled physical strength, his wild and savage hunting methods, and his somewhat perverse blood bathing... truly shocked everyone present.

Guo Wanzhi and Yao Rui had absolutely no will to resist!
In fact, Yao Rui had already given up hope on Huang Jie's mentor.

"No, no, don't come any closer..." Seeing Wu Weixiong looking at him, Sima Yu's legs trembled and he kept backing away.

"Young master, are you still unwilling to introduce yourself?" Looking at Sima Yu's effeminate face and timid demeanor, Wu Weixiong's lips curled into a mocking smile...
