281: The body-refining technique is of an extremely high level.

"So fast?!"

Liu Xuan felt a surge of joy in his heart. He knew that Eldest Son had great martial arts talent, but this cultivation speed still exceeded his expectations.

Eldest Son was only twenty-five, not yet twenty-six. To reach the Great Perfection of Xiantian at such a young age—not even a second person could be found in the entire Red Pine Sect, or even the entire Heavenly Sword Sect.

As long as he could break through to the Late Qi Refining Stage with his Great Perfection of Xiantian cultivation within four years, Eldest Son would be a Genius who reached the Late Qi Refining Stage before the age of thirty!

A Mortal without any Spiritual Root transforming into a cultivation Genius who reached the Late Qi Refining Stage before thirty—this was even more exaggerated than if he had been a Genius from the start.

"Where is the Eldest Son right now?" Liu Xuan asked as he set Lin Xue'er down.

"He is right outside," Lin Xue'er said, pulling Liu Xuan toward the outside. "I brought him over to see you the moment I received the news!"

If one were to ask who was happiest about Eldest Son reaching the Great Perfection of Xiantian, it would undoubtedly be Lin Xue'er.

Her past obsession had been to give birth to children with Spiritual Roots and raise them to become talents. Although Eldest Son did not have a Spiritual Root, he performed even better than many children who did; how could she not be happy?

West Courtyard, Outer Hall.

Eldest Son wore a black magic robe. He did not carry any offensive Magical Artifacts like blades or swords, yet simply standing there quietly gave people a strong sense of oppression.

This Aura came partly from his exaggeratedly sturdy physique, and partly from a special Aura similar to that of a Yao Beast.

The Green Wood Body Sculpting Art appeared to be merely a martial arts technique, but in reality, it was a dual Cultivation Technique for both body and law, combining the most basic parts of the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method and the Green Wood Longevity Art.

Among all his children, Eldest Son was currently the only one who had grasped the true meaning of the technique, and he was also the only child who followed Liu Xuan in consuming Yao Beast Medicinal Pills.

Liu Xuan had also tried feeding weakened versions of Beast Pills to children like Daocheng and Ninth Son, but none of them could digest them yet, and in the end, he had to step in to force out the demon power.

"Father!"

"Mother!"

Eldest Son bowed to Liu Xuan and Lin Xue'er as they approached, and the Aura on his body naturally retracted.

Liu Xuan reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder, extending his Divine Sense to check his cultivation status.

His blood and Qi were vigorous, his bones were strong, his Qi of Xiantian was complete; there was no doubt he had reached the Great Perfection of Xiantian in martial arts.

The blood and Qi within his body were extremely robust, almost identical to when Liu Xuan himself had been at the sixth level of Body Refining; one step further would be the Late Stage of Body Refining.

'Eldest Son being able to reach Perfection so quickly must be due to the technique comprehension bonus brought by the genealogy, as well as the improvement of his Spiritual Root!'

Liu Xuan waved at the maids in the hall, and after they left, he brought Eldest Son and Lin Xue'er to the Star Space.

"This is..."

The scene shifted, and suddenly arriving in an unfamiliar place, Eldest Son's face was full of curiosity.

"This is the Star Space, evolved from the Sect Grand Formation I set up; it is our Liu Family's Secret Realm."

Liu Xuan adopted the appearance of a high-level expert and said indifferently, "The Spiritual Qi here is abundant. You will undergo closed-door cultivation here from now on to facilitate an early Breakthrough."

A faint light flashed from his spatial ring, and a small wooden hut appeared by the pool. Liu Xuan pointed at it and said, "From now on, this will be your Cultivation Chamber for closed-door cultivation!"

"Uh... if you find it too simple, you can decorate it yourself. This is the entry token." Liu Xuan handed him a token to enter and exit the Star Array.

The Star Space, with a diameter of two kilometers, was larger than a typical small town and would not be crowded even with thousands of people living there. Liu Xuan planned to gradually open it to some of his children and Concubines, which would not only make it easier to manage the space but also facilitate closed-door cultivation for members of the clan.

"This child understands!"

Eldest Son put away the token, suppressed the heavy doubts in his heart, and asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Father, is the subsequent technique for the Green Wood Body Sculpting Art still a martial arts technique?"

Liu Xuan was startled! He smiled and asked, "Why do you ask?"

Eldest Son thought for a moment and said, "I have sparred and exchanged pointers with many martial arts experts, and I have personally read countless martial arts techniques."

"I discovered that the Green Wood Body Sculpting Art is different from all other martial arts techniques. Other martial arts techniques are all aimed at converting the Qi of Xiantian into magic power."

"Although the Green Wood Body Sculpting Art also has this effect, its focus is on the Physical Body and blood and Qi. It seems... it seems that the Great Perfection of Xiantian is not the end of martial arts."

The more Liu Xuan listened, the more satisfied he became. Many people who cultivated the Green Wood Body Sculpting Art understood what Eldest Son was saying, but he was the only one who thought about the future of martial arts.

Don't look at it as just a simple idea; it required breaking established common sense. Ordinary people would simply not think in this direction.

"Correct!" Liu Xuan nodded and said, "The Green Wood Body Sculpting Art is a dual Cultivation Technique for both body and law."

"Dual Cultivation of body and law?"

Both Lin Xue'er and Eldest Son revealed expressions of confusion.

"The so-called Dual Cultivation of body and law means cultivating Divine Soul and magic power while simultaneously cultivating the Physical Body and blood and Qi; the two complement each other."

"The advantage is powerful combat strength and a greater future, while the disadvantage is that it consumes more resources and requires more energy and accumulation."

Overall, Dual Cultivation of body and law was actually more difficult. The reason Liu Xuan could Cultivate so quickly was that he had directly grasped the techniques rewarded by the System. Otherwise, the techniques alone would be countless times more difficult than Qi Refining techniques.

Lin Xue'er was lost in thought. "No wonder I felt that when I broke through to the Late Qi Refining Stage, not all of the Qi of Xiantian was converted into magic power; the power of my body's blood and Qi was still retained and even growing."

In fact, Lin Xue'er could not be considered a dual cultivator of body and law, and neither could She Xiaorong before. They were actually just cultivating martial arts and had not grasped the essence of the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method.

The subsequent techniques they cultivated were only the Green Wood Longevity Method, and the Body Refining part was still stuck at the sixth level.

It was not that Liu Xuan did not give them techniques, but that they could not grasp them. If not for Liu Xuan using his Essence Blood and secret techniques to assist them, they would never have been able to break through to the Late Qi Refining Stage.

She Xiaorong and Lin Xue'er were more like those who mainly cultivated the Green Wood Longevity Art and concurrently cultivated the Kunpeng Swallowing Heaven Body Refining Method. With Liu Xuan assisting their cultivation, their growth speed was not slow.

Eldest Son was different. He had good Body Refining talent and the genealogy's bonus to help him comprehend techniques. Liu Xuan hoped he would truly engage in Dual Cultivation of body and law, and primarily Cultivate the Kunpeng Body Refining Method.

Liu Xuan took out two Jade Slips and handed them to Eldest Son. "This is the content for the Late Qi Refining Stage to Perfection for the Green Wood Longevity Art and the Kunpeng Body Refining Method. Comprehend them well."

"Remember!" Liu Xuan solemnly exhorted, "The Body Refining technique is of an extremely high level. Once your Body Refining cultivation breaks through, the Bottleneck for your Qi Refining cultivation will also be lowered. Whenever your ability allows, it is best to prioritize breaking through in your Body Refining cultivation!"

"Body Refining technique? Its level is even higher than the Green Wood Longevity Art?"

Lin Xue'er suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "You told me before that the Green Wood Longevity Art is a Tier 3 technique, so doesn't that mean this Body Refining technique is..."

Liu Xuan had previously given her a Jade Slip for the technique to break through to the Late Qi Refining Stage, but after reading it, she felt it was impossible to succeed, so she did not spend time studying it and mainly cultivated the Green Wood Longevity Art.

"Correct!"

"The Kunpeng Body Refining Method is a Tier 4 technique, sufficient to Cultivate to the level of a Nascent Soul True Lord!"

A True Immortal-level technique was too exaggerated; it was better for them not to know!
