Sha Chen’s cultivation had reached the Pinnacle Daluo realm. He seed to be only a step away from entering the Quasi-Saint realm, but in reality, there was still a long way to go. This was also because he had Li Er as his ntor for half a year; otherwise, it would have taken even longer to glimpse the secrets of the Quasi-Saint realm. However, even so, Sha Chen temporarily set aside the idea of breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm, as it was too distant a prospect.
He took out seven drops of Yuanfeng’s True Blood. This True Blood, from Yuanfeng—one of the three great titans of Dragon Han’s First Calamity—was more precious than Essence Blood. A single drop could illuminate mountains and rivers, reflecting countless rays of light. Sha Chen possessed a full seven drops, even after sharing three with the Phoenix sisters; otherwise, he would have had more. Still, seven drops were sufficient for his current needs.
Yuanfeng’s True Blood was ant for refining the body, containing boundless life force that grants inexhaustible strength and vitality. An ordinary person needed only one-hundredth of a drop to beco a Golden Immortal and then live forever young. Though it wasn’t true immortality, their lifespan would be a hundred to a thousand tis longer than that of a regular Golden Immortal. Sha Chen had so much of it; he planned to use it for physical refinent. After his cultivation breakthrough, his physical body had not kept up and had fallen behind. Sha Chen had to find a way for it to catch up.
Sha Chen swallowed the seven drops of Yuanfeng’s True Blood in one gulp and instantly felt an overwhelming vitality filling his body. His blood seed to be changing, his very flesh and blood appearing to boil. At this mont, he was like a huge cauldron, with the flesh and blood inside his body roiling and seething like at in a pot.
HUM!
Sha Chen’s physical body broke through, achieving Great Perfection of the Da Luo Dharmakaya. Then, it showed no sign of stopping, continuing to surge upwards, constantly growing stronger. The Great Perfection of the Da Luo Dharmakaya was already terrifying, comparable to the Pinnacle Daluo realm. With just his physical body alone, he was equivalent to a peak Great Witch. Sha Chen had barely touched upon this state before, having only half a foot in. But now, he had thoroughly stepped into it. And, without any intention of stopping, he kept on increasing in power and growing in stature. Moreover, Sha Chen showed a tendency to evolve towards the Prival Chaos Law Body, continuously growing more robust, as if he were about to step into that very realm.
The Prival Chaos Law Body was a powerful physical form comparable to a Quasi-Saint. It is said that the Tathagata Buddha, under the Bodhi Tree, condensed an eighteen-zhang golden body, which was the Da Luo Dharmakaya. Then, upon further enlightennt, he directly condensed a ten-thousand-zhang golden body, which was the Prival Chaos Law Body. It is also said that each of the twelve Ancestral Witches possessed a Prival Chaos Law Body.
However, the Prival Chaos Law Bodies of the twelve Ancestral Witches were all at Great Perfection. Moreover, their Dharmakayas had opened acupoints that could contain infinite Divine Power and were imbued with boundless Divine Powers. Apart from the Ancestral Witches, during the prival era, those who could condense a Prival Chaos Law Body were exceedingly few. Indeed, condensing a Prival Chaos Law Body was even more difficult than becoming a Quasi-Saint. After all, during the prival era, those who truly condensed a Prival Chaos Law Body were also few and far between, their numbers far less than those whose cultivation reached the Quasi-Saint Realm.
But in terms of true combat strength, a Prival Chaos Law Body of the sa realm seed even stronger and more terrifying. In the prival era, the twelve Ancestral Witches, with their Prival Chaos Law Bodies, were like overlords, rampaging throughout the entire prival world. The only ones who could contend with them were the Demon Clan, who also relied on their physical bodies. And even then, it was only the two Demon Clan overlords, Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun, who, along with other top figures from their clan, contended with the twelve Ancestral Witches. The Demon Clan’s physical bodies were imnsely powerful, with their own unique classifications for their physical forms, yet they too were renowned for their physical strength.
It was only with the Daoist Ancestor’s ascension to sainthood that soone could transcend all worldly affairs. During the contest for dominance between the Witch and Demon Clans, the Three Purities had not yet attained sainthood. It was later, when they devoted efforts to improving their Mana cultivation and then protected the Realm of People, that they attained sainthood through rits. After attaining sainthood through rits, they accelerated the progression of the Witch-Demon contention, propelling the downfall of both clans, and then ushered in the prosperous era of the Realm of People. Although Mana cultivation was developed later and seemingly survived until now—suggesting it should have been the strongest due to survival of the fittest—in reality, Mana cultivation was more likely to be favored by the Heavenly Dao and made it easier to achieve sainthood through rits. Ultimately, its path extended further than that of the physical body.
Before attaining sainthood, the physical body had always been stronger than Mana cultivation. In the prival era, Daluo Golden Immortals who relied on Mana cultivation always took detours when encountering Great Witches of the Witch Clan or Great Saints of the Demon Clan. Now, things were different. Those who cultivated their physical bodies had beco rare due to a broken lineage and lack of inheritance. Consequently, in later generations, the number of those who could refine their bodies to the ultimate level was very few. The Tathagata and others were considered such a group, but they too only began cultivating their physical bodies as an alternative path after their Mana cultivation reached very high realms and further advancent seed hopeless. It had never been a case of parallel advancent; their physical bodies had always lagged far behind their cultivation. Sha Chen, however, was different. He managed to advance his physical body, Mana cultivation, and Primordial Spirit in tandem.
Now that his cultivation had elevated, his physical body also needed to catch up. However, if he refined all of Yuanfeng’s True Blood, his physical body was likely to surpass his cultivation, taking the lead once more. After refining Yuanfeng’s True Blood, Sha Chen’s physical body began to grow incessantly. A phantom Phoenix erged behind him, spreading its wings and eclipsing the sky. Sha Chen’s gaze also beca sharp, and his entire deanor seed to undergo a drastic and profound transformation.
The power of life, endless and abiding. Continuous, stretching back through the ages. Sha Chen felt as if his lifespan had been infinitely extended, becoming long and drawn out. So of the injuries left in his body from cultivating his physical form had also healed.
Is this the terrifying power of Yuanfeng’s True Blood? he mused, overjoyed. When cultivated in conjunction with the Yuanfeng True Secret, not only does the physical body beco stronger, but vitality itself is sublimated.
He was a man who took ticulous care in all things, all for the sake of living a little longer. Longevity was very important to him, and enduring vitality signified both vibrancy and potential. Everyone’s potential is limited. In the finite span of life, the further one can travel, the greater their potential is proven to be. Since Sha Chen could extend his own life significantly, he could naturally travel further, thus unlocking his potential to a greater extent.
Sha Chen was thus enveloped by the Yuanfeng True Fire for cultivation, and his body grew stronger and sturdier amidst the great flas. Even his appearance seed to change, becoming more chiseled and defined. Previously, he was a rough and burly man; if he walked down the street, passersby would willingly hand over their money without him needing to declare, "This road is mine, these trees I planted!" But now, his appearance had sowhat improved. He was no longer as rough-hewn but beca more angular and defined. At least now, he would need to utter the phrase, "If you wish to pass this road, leave behind your toll money!" to get people to obediently pay up.
「One month later.」
Sha Chen had completely refined Yuanfeng’s True Blood. However, he hadn’t managed to advance his physical body to the Prival Chaos Law Body just from that. After all, the Prival Chaos Law Body was a state comparable to a Quasi-Saint. Throughout the countless eras of the primordial chaos until now, Quasi-Saints were extrely rare beings, like phoenix feathers and qilin horns. If Daluo Golden Immortals were exceedingly rare after the Divine Enthronent, then Quasi-Saints were practically extinct after that event. Even during the prival era, experts of the Quasi-Saint level were as elusive as a dragon revealing its head but never its tail, rarer than snow in June. And that was referring to a cultivation level reaching the Quasi-Saint Realm; if it were the physical body reaching the Prival Chaos Law Body state, that was even rarer.
Sha Chen had only recently broken through to Pinnacle Daluo, so the possibility of him stepping into the Quasi-Saint Realm in the near future was not very high. Therefore, he strove to elevate his physical body instead.
Yuanfeng’s True Blood is still not enough, Sha Chen thought, though without regret. If I hadn’t given those three drops to the Phoenix sisters, this amount might just barely have sufficed.
He did not regret sharing those three drops of Yuanfeng’s True Blood with the three Phoenix sisters. Besides making their bloodlines purer, the most important thing was that it made them more grateful to Sha Chen, rembering him as their father!
After all, Sha Chen knew that in the ti to co, Li Er’s teachings for the three Phoenix sisters would be strict yet highly beneficial. It would also change so of the sisters’ notions, widening their knowledge and experience. If he didn’t show more favor to the Phoenix sisters beforehand, they might still be grateful to Sha Chen when they returned, but it would be uncertain who they would value more: Sha Chen or Li Er. Sha Chen was no pushover; he would never do sothing that solely benefited others at his own expense. His pursuit and choice were to have others cultivate the three Phoenix sisters for his own use.
It seems it’s ti to bring out the Honghuang Creation Qi, Sha Chen thought, deciding to use this opportunity to break through his own Legal Body. He had obtained a total of fifty-two strands of Honghuang Creation Qi: sixteen on one occasion and thirty-six on another. Each strand of Honghuang Creation Qi could cultivate a Great Witch—that is, a Da Luo Dharmakaya practitioner. This illustrated their priceless value, truly incomparable and beyond asure.
Among the many treasures Sha Chen had obtained, only the Honghuang Creation Qi and Yuanfeng’s True Blood were the most precious to him. If it were about sheer utility, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture might be even more so, but these two were most valuable to him personally. Anything that could increase his cultivation was inherently more appealing. This was also why Li Er, even upon seeing Sha Chen with the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, had no intention of seizing it. After all, a Saint had seen all kinds of treasures and possessed unimaginable items. The Wordless Heavenly Scripture, while impressive, wasn’t sothing a Saint would stoop to snatch.
Sha Chen took out sixteen strands of Honghuang Creation Qi and refined them directly, intending to see if he could use this chance to step directly into the Prival Chaos Law Body realm. He refined the sixteen strands, fusing them into his bloodstream and marrow.
「Half a month later.」
Sha Chen’s Legal Body also changed, indeed growing stronger. Within the Da Luo Dharmakaya realm, he had reached the Great Perfection of Great Perfection, just one crucial step away from advancing further.
Sha Chen gritted his teeth. Although sowhat reluctant, he still extracted the remaining thirty-six strands of Honghuang Creation Qi and infused them into his physical body. His physical body beca sacred, radiant, majestic, and powerful.
「Three months later.」
Sha Chen broke through.
