Gou Zai Yao Wu Simulated Immortal

"After you enter the inner sect, Wu Yong will personally lead you to the armory to choose your method."

"In the Inner Sect's Scripture Repository, you abandoned your previous practice of the 'Primordial Marrow Cleansing and Refining' and switched to the Inner Sect's secret internal skill, the 'Yang Yuan Refining Sun'."

"This technique is even more powerful and dazzling than the 'Primordial Marrow Cleansing Technique'."

"One must sit cross-legged at noon, taking advantage of the intense sunlight to condense Yang energy and refine it into the limbs and bones."

"Upon mastering this skill, any external martial art will suffer an additional three-tenths of Yang Flame injury. Once struck, the Yang Flame will linger for a long time and be difficult to heal."

"When practicing this technique, one's qi and blood are like fire, and one's bones and flesh are like a furnace, refining the extraordinary tendons and meridians, and faintly resembling the immortal techniques of breathing in the heavens and earth."

"The elders of the sect thought that you would have to suffer quite a bit before you could even get the hang of this skill, since you were a beginner."

"Who would have thought you'd mastered it so quickly, becoming completely integrated with the technique?"

……

Li Qian's lips curled up.

The "Yang Yuan Refining the Sun" technique inherently follows the method of refining the internal from the external and borrowing momentum to enter the body.

His cultivation technique, the "Lingze Method," was similar to his own, leading others to believe he possessed extraordinary talent.

Little did they know that they were taking advantage of the mutual verification between the two realms.

……

"Using your status and resources as an inner disciple, you have begun to gradually unlock your martial arts cultivation."

"During this time, he sent word home about the situation in the north."

"In the first month, the Armadillo Pass was breached."

"In the second month, the elephant muscle joint opens."

"In the third month, the Sigu Pass was crossed."

"The disciples in the sect were all dumbfounded when they saw you break through three trials in three months."

"You should know that each stage is more difficult than the last, and many inner disciples only break through the Rhinoceros Bone Stage when they are middle-aged."

Even Wu Yong, Yu Xianzhi, and Zhang Chengliang remained silent for three days, only saying that they had underestimated you.

"After that, with the help of the demon flesh and medicinal baths bestowed upon you by the inner sect, you continued to hone your blood and tendons."

"The bone-strengthening pills I carry are most effective when taken at Sigu Pass, but they are not entirely useless at later passes as well."

"You refine the medicinal power and temper your body with the sun every day, daring not to slack off for even a single day."

"In the sixth month, the Linxue Pass was breached."

"Upon completion of this stage, the blood within the body surges like molten gold, then settles like red jade, gradually transforming the body of an ordinary beast into that of a strange beast."

"In addition to the 'Yang Yuan Refining the Sun' technique, your every move exudes a captivating heat."

"In the ninth month, the Qiongjin Gate was completed."

"The tendons of the dragon coil around the body, taut like a crossbow. With a slight push, hundreds of tendons throughout the body tighten simultaneously, multiplying the strength."

"At this point, you have passed all five trials of the Bone and Flesh Realm and have entered the realm of Great Perfection."

"The news caused an uproar throughout the inner sect."

"Upon hearing the news, the elders came to personally examine your qi, blood, muscles, and bones."

"Seeing that you reached full maturity in just nine months, everyone was secretly amazed."

Someone stroked his beard and said, "This boy's talent is probably no less than that of the sect's true disciples."

"The true successor is one in a million, and he can already be considered the backbone of the Great Sun Dynasty's future."

"Some shook their heads and sighed: 'All the true disciples followed the sect leader to the northern front to fight against the demons. Now, I really wish I could bring one back to compete with him.'"

"Although it's impossible to compare their actual combat prowess, in terms of cultivation progress alone, they are almost the same."

"Seeing the elders' words already hinting at favoritism, you might as well go along with it."

"Taking advantage of the momentum gained from breaking through five barriers in September, we will firmly secure our position as the top disciple in the inner sect."

"From now on, when the remaining disciples see you, they must respectfully address you as Senior Brother Li."

"The sect has also specially allocated a secluded courtyard for your martial arts training."

"Enough for you to practice hand-to-hand combat and swordsmanship without being disturbed by others."

"This is worlds apart from the way the inner disciples practice together."

"In addition, there are no longer any restrictions on the use of monster meat that can help one advance in martial arts."

"You may use any of the demon flesh and blood you have hunted from the North, as long as it is beneficial to your bones and muscles."

"Among them are many highly nutritious foods; you only regret that you didn't have more stomachs."

"Time flies like an arrow; more than half a year has passed."

"During that time, you diligently practiced external martial arts, mastering the 'Ape God Subduing Demon Staff' and reaching the master level in the 'Dragon Capturing Hand'."

"In the past year and a half, you have made many friends and acquaintances, some respecting your character, some admiring your strength, and some appreciating your demeanor."

"The Martial Arts Competition was held as scheduled, with the three major martial arts schools in the south—Yangwu School, Qiyuan School, and Jieyue School—all gathered together, along with numerous other martial arts schools."

"The Yangwu School excels at tempering Yang energy, possessing a magnificent and intense internal strength, and its palm and staff techniques are unparalleled in the South."

"Qiyuan Sect excels in circulating internal energy, possessing long and agile internal strength, and is renowned among other sects for its swordsmanship and footwork."

"The Jieyue Sect excels at breaking formations with horizontal techniques, possesses powerful and fierce internal energy, and dominates the region with its swords and heavy armor."

"As the top disciple of Yangwu Sect's inner circle, who else but me can compete in the Martial Arts Grand Competition?"

"According to old customs in the South, any martial arts school that ranks among the top five in the arena will receive a generous reward."

"Once the arena opened, you swept across the field, your palm strikes as bright as the sun and your staff strikes like falling stars."

"It is difficult for the opponent to tell whether the sun in your palm is more blazing or the blazing sun in the sky is more dazzling."

"Although the disciples of Qiyuan Sect are elusive in their movements and agile in their swordsmanship, they cannot withstand your Yang Flame Penetrating to the Bone."

"Although the disciples of Jieyue Sect are clad in heavy armor and wield large swords, and possess strong muscles and bones, they cannot suppress your immense strength from your fully developed tendons."

"Not to mention the remaining martial arts disciples, they are no match for you in a single blow."

"Winning every battle and advancing all the way to the top three."

"The entire Yangwu Sect was greatly encouraged, and the elders were especially delighted."

"In the end, you fought against all the heroes, but you were no match for the long-standing and profound strength of the Qiyuan Sect. You were defeated and won the runner-up title in the Martial Arts Competition."

"With your second place ranking and the points earned by the other disciples, Yangwu Sect has firmly secured a place in the top three."

"As one of the top three, Yangwumen also received a whole cartload of demon cores, flesh and blood, and precious medicines brought back from the northern border."

"The entire sect was overjoyed, and together with the other two sects, they held a victory celebration banquet that very night."

"What's even more remarkable is that at the victory celebration banquet, you also took advantage of this martial arts competition to truly get to know many heroes from the South."

"After the battle, the top three scholars developed a mutual respect for each other."

"After several rounds of drinks, you discussed the wonders of long-lasting internal energy with the top scholar Zhang Que, and the methods of combining swords and armor with the third-ranking scholar Liu Lie."

"He also argued with other outstanding scholars from various schools, discussing the intricacies of fist, staff, footwork, sword, knife, and armor."

"They were in high spirits at the banquet, laughing heartily at the most heated exchanges, and raising their glasses in toast when they understood each other perfectly."

"A young man of chivalry befriended heroes from five capitals."

"The next day, at the Martial Arts Grand Prize, you came in second and were rewarded with a Five-Element Demon Core, corresponding to the fifth level of the Bone and Flesh Realm."

When Wu Yong personally handed you a black wooden pill box, he said twice, "Don't waste it."

"After you return to the courtyard, open the box and examine the pills. You will find that the five demon pills inside are of different colors and are surrounded by a fierce aura."

"This aura is completely different from the Bone Strengthening Pills of True Spirit Continent."

"The medicine for strengthening bones is mild and gentle, like spring rain entering the soil, nourishing things silently. It focuses on penetrating the bones and muscles little by little, gradually strengthening the foundation."

"But these Four Symbols Demon Cores are exceptionally ferocious. Their aura is so strong it's like a strange beast roaring at you, its wildness untamed."

"But it is precisely because of this that these five demon cores have such a remarkable effect in strengthening the foundation of the old pass."

"After you swallowed them one after another and refined all the demon cores, you felt your own physical and mental foundation surge once again."

"The tougher the armadillo's skin, the stronger the elephant's muscles, the more resolute the rhinoceros's bones, the more abundant the unicorn's blood, and the more supple the dragon's tendons."

Li Qian was greatly surprised that the Great Sun possessed such a fine item.
