The Way of The Dao

Chapter 666 Grandmaster Is A Body Dao Refiner

?Cai Wuya narrowed her eyes, thinking of Ling Tian's arrogance in saying such arrogant words: "You should know the horror of Immortals if you were in the Immortal realm, so you shouldn't say such arrogant words. But for the fact that you took care of my junior martial sister in the past, I could ask my Master to ask for an immortal pill for you when our ancestors descend. But in return you have to sever your connection with Junior Martial Sister so that she can become the sect's Saintess!"

Cai Wuya looked seriously and superiorly at Ling Tian, as if she was dictating an imperial command. She could see that Ling Tian's age was no more than a thousand years, so he must have consumed a lot of life energy treasures to stay alive now that he was crippled. Furthermore, if Ling Tian had been in the Immortal World, he could not have reached a high cultivation level; after all, the higher the cultivation level the more difficult it becomes, even to the point of spending dozens of years to advance a few stages and, with Ling Tian's situation and bone age, he could not have been able to cultivate a lot...

Cai Wuya was also aware of Xue Ning's feeling towards Ling Tian, so she had to do everything she could to sever it! If she kept getting involved with a cripple like him, Xue Ning's future would be ruined!

"Shut up! Senior Martial Sister! You can't decide that for me! I won't cut any ties with my big brother!"

Finally, Xue Ning angrily snapped at Cai Wuya and she glared at her coldly. She was no longer going to tolerate this senior martial sister to continue to despise Ling Tian. The elders conditioned her to have Cai Wuya accompany her, mainly because she knew her a little and had interacted with her due to their statuses as fellow disciples, but Xue Ning would not allow anyone to interpose between her and her big brother.

"Junior Sister, I'm doing everything for your sake. The Sect has nurtured you a lot to be the strongest person in the entire sect, even the elders have passed down the sect's most powerful secret techniques to you. If you become the Saintess, not only will you have the chance to obtain the legendary immortal pill for him, but you will also be able to ascend to the Immortal World and reach new heights!"

However, Cai Wuya did not give up and still spoke haughtily towards Xue Ning, displaying the bearing of a senior martial sister of the sect. Explaining that it was all for her sake.

"You're wrong! The Sect only passed their secret techniques to me, but I never studied them and I can return the tomes next time! My big brother was the one who left me all his cultivation resources so that I could cultivate!" Xue Ning looked at Cai Wuya seriously, not being intimidated by her, "If I can ascend to the Immortal World, I'll also be able to get the pill for my big brother!"

"And how long do you think it will take you to achieve it? 1 year? 10 years? 100 years? Be aware that everything you wish for you won't always be able to achieve!" Cai Wuya arranged her hair behind her ear as she lectured this naive junior martial sister.

Xue Ning looked helplessly at Cai Wuya without being able to refute her. She knew that Cai Wuya was right, things were not that simple and not to say of obtaining some immortal pill, would she even be able to ascend to the Immortal World in no time?

"Besides, the most convenient and unique option would be for you to agree to be the Saintess. That way you could obtain an immortal medicinal pill for him before his life expectancy runs out. With his meridians destroyed, he cannot circulate any energy and he will die of old age in a few years, especially if he says that ordinary medicine cannot help him. After a century he will probably be just bones, while you will be able to reach the Immortal King stage as long as you continue to cultivate!"

Cai Wuya's words were cruel and merciless, but somehow they made everyone in the place feel helpless. If ordinary medicine is not enough, then they would have to find powerful immortal medicines, but they were so easy to get than to say it?

The life expectancy of a cripple is even less than that of a mortal. Being nurtured for a long time by the spirit of heaven and earth makes one's body powerful and full of energy to increase their life expectancy, but once they fall becomes a cripple, their life expectancy is drastically reduced by a few tens of years and even less, inevitably dying unless they can be cured.

"The only way is for you to accept to become the Saintess. Once you accept, I will ask my Master to request an immortal medicinal pill for him."

Realizing the atmosphere, Cai Wuya spoke solemnly, as if she had won this time as she looked at Xue Ning's doubtful expression.

"Grandmaster is a Body Dao Refiner, so there is no problem with his life expectancy in living for several centuries."

Suddenly, a proud and slightly mocking voice towards Cai Wuya's words was heard in the place.

Gao Xue, Gao Yue and Zhen Bingluo were surprised when they looked at Xuanyuan Ling beside them who had spoken.

"Ling'er, you..." Zhen Bingluo looked at Xuanyuan Ling beside her, finally realizing her cultivation level as well! But what had her most astonished was that she said these things about Ling Tian, slowly remembering that Xuanyuan Ling had appeared with Ling Tian, Shin Wei, Ning Xiaoyi, Xi Fei and Nalan Ziqing as well!

Could it be that she and her martial brothers had run into Ling Tian before?

"Ling'er... you-"

"Were you with your Grandmaster?"

Gao Xue and Gao Yue asked at once, also noticing Xuanyuan Ling's cultivation level at this moment.

All eyes fell on Xuanyuan Ling, who nodded with a smile looking at Ling Tian and said, "Masters and I fell into a lower plane when we were caught by that Void Corridor, falling into a small world and then we met Grandmaster and the others."

"Although Grandmaster has lost his cultivation temporarily, he still remains as strong as an Immortal. Even his level of body refinement is no less weak than any Great Ascension expert!"

Xuanyuan Ling explained in a few words, but leaving everyone on the spot shocked! Her gaze swept towards Cai Wuya, showing unparalleled pride along with a superior expression and that she didn't think her Grandmaster was a waste.

"Ling Tian, is it true?" Xi Fei asked with anticipation. Ning Xiaoyi looked expectantly at Ling Tian, hoping that it was true.

Even Xue Ning looked expectantly at Ling Tian!

If Ling Tian had such a level of Body Refinement, then there would be no problems in a short time! Refining the Dao of the Body also increased life expectancy! Although it did not increase the same as cultivating the Main Dao, it still increased life considerably. Living several centuries longer shouldn't be a problem!

"Uhm, Ling'er is telling the truth. I am refining my body." Ling Tian nodded with a calm smiling expression. His level of body refinement was just a short distance away from reaching the limit of the mortal body to enter nirvana and become a true immortal body.

This time, Cai Wuya could not help but be shocked! A level of body refinement at the level of the Great Ascension state? That was more difficult than ascending to the Immortal World!

It must be said that Body Dao Refinement is so difficult that almost no one focuses on it. And those who refine their bodies only achieve it a bit, attaining fleshly strength comparable to a cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment, but that was as far as it went. Cai Wuya knew about someone who managed to refine his body to the level of the Golden Core, but eventually gave up and continued to cultivate the Main Dao when he couldn't advance any further.

Refining one's body to great heights was much more difficult than reaching the sky in one step!

Moreover, although everyone could see that Ling Tian had a slightly slender body unlike those body refiners who had bulging and grotesque muscles, they seemed to strangely feel an explosive power in his muscles when they looked at him in detail. Ling Tian seemed to have a body seemingly the perfect size and appealing to the eye underneath his robe, neither too thin nor too grotesque, leaving many wonderful things to the imagination.

"Then all the more reason you should have all this big brother! So that your body refining level will continue to advance until we find a way to repair your meridians!"

Xue Ning took out many more items from her storage ring, from body tempering pills to treasures with powerful energies inside. The other women also did the same, offering Ling Tian everything they had.

Cai Wuya looked at all the heavenly and high-level treasures that all the women brought out, unable to help but be surprised and gasp in a cold breath when she saw everything in front of her eyes. She tried to stop Xue Ning from wasting these treasures only to receive a cold stare from her.

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan's expressions flashed as they remembered that their Master still had his semi-immortal body! He was still very strong in this lower plane! Their expressions overflowed with pride as they saw that their Master had ways to be very strong!

"Master, you should have a special method to continue cultivating right?"

Unexpectedly, Zhen Bingluo again narrowed her eyes at her Master, mainly focusing her gaze on Ling Tian's Nascent Soul that played with Lan Yin and Qing Sha's Nascent Souls. To manage to manifest his own Nascent Soul despite being in a crippled state, Ling Tian should have a secret method.

"As expected of my most observant little girl."

Ling Tian smiled warmly with approval in his words, making Zhen Bingluo smile as her eyes sparkled happily.

"Although I have lost my cultivation and my meridians are damaged, I still have a way to cultivate temporarily until I fully recover. Therefore you girls don't have to get anxious about my current state. When the time comes, I will recover completely. On the contrary, all of you should look for a way to keep cultivating faster and become stronger than me, because once I recover my cultivation I will overtake you, hehe."

Ling Tian laughed softly, wanting to get rid of these women's worries and anxieties seeing that he was crippled at this moment. The Sacred Heavenly Scriptures were working all the time, attracting the energy of heaven and earth nonstop and gradually increasing, making it like his second temporary dantian as well. Ling Tian had noticed that the capacity of these Sacred Heavenly Scriptures was far more than immense than his cultivation, so it would take longer to advance in each small realm.
