143: Qi, blood, spirit, this guy is hiding very deeply

PS: The chapter I missed yesterday due to a cold has been filled up to four thousand characters!

"The people from Spring and Autumn Sword Palace in Northern Qi are truly this arrogant, daring to kill even the True Disciple of Dongming Sect, the overlord of South Chu. Are they not underestimating South Chu?"

Innumerable cultivators were enraged by this; after all, they were from South Chu. It was fine to fight amongst themselves within South Chu, but for someone from Northern Qi to come to South Chu and act so arrogantly was absolutely unacceptable!

"This Sword Lord from Spring and Autumn Sword Palace is not here with good intentions! He didn't seem angry before, so why is he acting so arrogantly at the Dongming Sect's Yuan Province Mountain Gate this time?"

"He even dared to slice off half the head of a Dongming Sect Yin Spirit Realm True Disciple and collapse half of the mountain gate. Isn't he afraid that Dongming Sect will keep him in South Chu permanently?"

"I heard that the Sword Lord wanted to see Dongming Sect's Jiuxiao Sword Sutra, but Liang Tingsheng refused, saying the sword sutra was not yet complete. That's why the Sword Lord deliberately provoked him. As a result, Liang Tingsheng still didn't use the Jiuxiao Sword Sutra, and the Sword Lord then used his Sword Intent to collapse half of Dongming Sect's Yuan Province mountain gate, but that True Disciple Liang Tingsheng still refused."

"So that's how it is! It's not surprising that the Dongming Sect True Disciple Liang Tingsheng refused. The Jiuxiao Sword Sutra was also once famous in Azure Underworld. If he were to use this sword sutra to duel against the Sword Lord and lose, the world would immediately say that Dongming Sect's sword sutra is far inferior to Spring and Autumn Sword Palace's!"

"Isn't Dongming Sect already inferior to Spring and Autumn Sword Palace?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Who is in charge in South Chu now? Don't you have any idea?"

A few more days passed, and Pang Feifeng from Flying Immortal Sect voluntarily appeared in Yuan Province, intercepting the Sword Lord from Spring and Autumn Sword Palace. The battle of Heavenly Pride erupted for the first time in South Chu.

But despite being a fellow Heavenly Pride, that Sword Lord from Spring and Autumn Sword Palace only used eight swords. It was with the eighth sword that he split open Pang Feifeng's chest, nearly cutting him in half.

Furthermore, a single sentence was spread, nearly causing Pang Feifeng's Dao Heart to collapse.

"There are also differences in Companion Spirit Treasures, don't you know that?"

Pang Feifeng, of course, didn't know, so he was filled with shame and anger, and fought again, only to have an arm severed by five swords. In the end, it was the Flying Immortal Sect Leader who personally came forward to take Pang Feifeng away.

........

Lu Chen, naturally, knew nothing about the Celestial Sword from Northern Qi's Spring and Autumn Sword Palace entering South Chu.

At this time, he was still sitting cross-legged on the Void-Breaking Boat, constantly flickering as he traversed the Void within the dark, cold Starry Sky.

Protector Gu Wenzhao and Protector Fan Yanbo were one in front and one behind, protecting Lu Chen in the middle, their gazes occasionally lingering on Lu Chen.

"This little Lu, he's hiding deep enough!"

Finally, after watching for a long time, Protector Fan Yanbo couldn't help but speak: "Everyone thought this little Lu was only unmatched in Puppet Technique, but his cultivation wasn't high, only in the Xuan Fa Realm. After all, he has only cultivated for a short year, and to have such cultivation is already enough to be astonishing.

"But who would have thought that this kid's Body Refinement cultivation is even more exaggerated, having already achieved the Yin Spirit Realm of Blood and Qi Divine Spirit!"

Even with the vision and strength of Protector Fan Yanbo, a Yang God Great Cultivator, he was shocked and horrified at this moment.

This has only been one year!

Body Refinement cultivation entering the Yin God, Qi Refinement cultivation is also about to enter the Dao Infant, and he even has a miraculous Puppet Technique. Who can cultivate to this level in one year?

Not to mention seeing it, he had never even heard of it!

Those Heavenly Pride from Azure Underworld, every single one of them, are nothing compared to this little Lu Chen!

What Heavenly Pride? Which one of them didn't cultivate for decades, or even a hundred years, to achieve the Yin God?

Can they compare with Lu Chen?

There's absolutely no comparison. The difference between one year and decades or a hundred years is far too great.

It's no exaggeration to say that one Lu Chen can be worth more than a hundred of them.

"This kid has also opened this old man's eyes!" Protector Gu Wenzhao was also startled.

If it weren't for being in this Starry Sky, if it weren't for being right in front of them, if it weren't for this little Lu Chen fully concentrating on breaking through, they probably wouldn't have known until now that this little Lu Chen's Body Refinement cultivation had already achieved the Blood and Qi Divine Spirit.

He was hiding that deep!

As for why Lu Chen was exposed?

Actually, it can't really be called being exposed.

It was entirely because Lu Chen refined the 'Yuzhi Treasure Pill' too quickly when he swallowed it.

Generally, Xuan Fa Realm cultivators would slowly refine such precious treasure pills and the vast medicinal power within them, bit by bit, gradually consuming it.

Because once the medicinal power of such a treasure pill erupts in an instant, with the cultivation of the Xuan Fa Realm, it would be impossible to withstand it. The Meridians would be instantly damaged by the medicinal power, and even the Physical Body would crack and collapse.

But Lu Chen was different. His Physical Body was too strong, easily containing the fully unleashed medicinal power of the Yuzhi Treasure Pill without any damage, nor did it allow any of the medicinal power to dissipate.

His powerful Physical Body locked all the erupting vast medicinal power within his body and absorbed it at an astonishingly fast speed.

Seeing this scene, with the eyesight of Protector Gu Wenzhao and Protector Fan Yanbo, two Six Tribulations Yang God Great Cultivators, they naturally instantly saw the extraordinary nature of Lu Chen's Physical Body and the astonishing foundation of his Body Refinement cultivation.

"Cultivating both Qi Refinement and Body Refinement simultaneously isn't without benefits," Protector Gu Wenzhao said softly. "Especially for a kid like Lu, where his Body Refinement strength is two major Realms higher than his Qi Refinement cultivation, he can completely use his formidable Physical Body to quickly refine all medicinal power, even spiritual stones and spiritual energy, thereby rapidly increasing his Qi Refinement cultivation. There's no need to worry about whether his Physical Body can withstand it, nor about whether the medicinal power and spiritual energy can be absorbed and thus dissipated or wasted."

"He is truly blessed!" Fan Yanbo exclaimed. "This old man originally thought that even though this kid has a high comprehension of True Intent, a powerful Divine Soul, and his Realm has reached the required level, with the help of the Yuzhi Treasure Pill, it would take at least one to two months to break through the Xuan Fa Realm and enter the Dao Infant Realm. Now it seems that this old man underestimated him.

"He will enter the Dao Infant Realm within these few days, and he won't even need the help of Earth Dragon Liquid!"

Gu Wenzhao smiled: "This kid's Divine Soul is very strong; it's probably enough to cultivate into a Yin God. What he lacks is the accumulation of cultivation, and the Earth Dragon Liquid is just right for him. Perhaps this trip can even allow him to cultivate the Dao Infant Realm to Perfection in one go, or even step into the Yin God."

Fan Yanbo nodded: "That's also true, but cultivating too quickly may not be a good thing. It's better to temper himself more in the Dao Infant Realm.

"Furthermore, the cultivators on that unnamed star might not be easy to deal with. When the time comes, let this little Lu go and get it himself, and we can also see what kind of methods this kid has."

Protector Gu had a hint of worry: "The cultivators on that small star are not a concern. Although it's not good to randomly create slaughter, by arriving with absolute strength, we can always make those cultivators submit. What I'm afraid of is that other cultivators from other stars have also set their sights on that place. After all, when you and I passed by then, we saw the anomaly when the Earth Dragon Liquid was born. Thinking about it now, what we saw then was probably not just you and me."

Protector Fan, however, didn't seem to care much: "In this starfield, Azure Underworld is the top cultivation ground. What can the cultivators from other stars do, even if they saw it? With you and me here, we can ensure that this kid gets the Earth Dragon Liquid without worry.

"Even if the cultivation worlds on those stars have backing, it will never be greater than our Dongming Sect's Ancestral Land."

In a word, whoever snatches it gets dealt with!

PS: I slept all day and this terrible cold hasn't gotten any better. What a suffering!!!
