Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 346 - 286: Perfection of the Golden Body and the Refining Furnace Tripod

Chapter 346: Chapter 286: Perfection of the Golden Body and the Refining Furnace Tripod

Great Grandmaster, top Great Grandmaster, National Guardian Level (Dynasty’s Master of Destiny), Breakthrough Level warriors.

Four levels, from weak to strong.

Wang Sheng’s strength was that of the most top-tier Breakthrough Level warrior.

However, this world clearly wasn’t limited to just him; the first dynasty’s Master of Destiny was also a Breakthrough Level warrior and had likely lived for 2000 years. Furthermore, he was very likely to have emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so it’s quite possible that his strength was even stronger than Wang Sheng’s.

This was pressure for Wang Sheng.

One should know that both National Guardian Level and Breakthrough Level are fundamentally Masters of Destiny, except Breakthrough Level has some particularities.

This means that the first dynasty’s Breakthrough Level could very well be linked to an existence like the “Heavenly Father”, and might even be the “Heavenly Father” himself.

And Wang Sheng’s encounters with the Heavenly Father, after several confrontations, made their relationship clear; the Heavenly Father would not let him, this variable, off the hook, and he would not let go of the Heavenly Father, who had repeatedly sought him out for trouble.

It could be said to be a fight to the death.

If a Dynasty’s Master of Destiny from the great Zhou existed, they would most likely take direct action against him.

The same applied to the Breakthrough Level warrior from the first dynasty.

Wang Sheng felt a strong sense of crisis within.

Because after returning, he immediately went into seclusion, hardly paying any attention to outsiders.

After reaching the fourth level of Refining Qi into God, there was a qualitative change, his strength would see a great improvement; strength was safety.

However, before the breakthrough in his realm, the “True Body” that evolved from the Yijin Scripture made its breakthrough first.

Of course, the breakthrough of the True Body was actually within his expectations.

The progress of the True Body and the Five Internal Organs Containing God had always been roughly the same, except that the advancement of spiritual power, that is Divine Thought, was quick due to Wang Sheng’s harvesting method, thus the Five Internal Organs Containing God were likely to breakthrough before the True Body.

But the “True Body” was close to breaking through on its own, even though it was slow, it wasn’t significantly delayed.

Even though Wang Sheng’s main focus in cultivation wasn’t on the Yijin Scripture, it still achieved a breakthrough.

After one cycle of cultivation of the Yijin Scripture, the True Body successfully broke through.

The True Body represented the most natural and original state of the human body.

Logically, the true “True” state signifies an eternal and unchanging state throughout the ages.

Regretfully, Wang Sheng was merely on the cusp of this realm; he was still far from the true state of “True.”

Perhaps with continuous breakthroughs, he could reach Innate—this Innate was not the one commonly understood in martial hero novels.

Rather, it was in the sense of before heaven; a level comparable to the Innate Demons in legend and myth.

Such existences could shatter the eternal firmament with a mere flick of their hand.

Wang Sheng’s True Body Completion didn’t imply he had reached this state, but rather his body now had this potential. Continuously moving forward, one day he would arrive.

And now, the progress bar for the True Body disappeared, and a new progress bar appeared.

“Golden Body: 1%”

Golden Body, originally stemming from Buddhist teachings, though with the passage of time, Buddhism and Taoism did not remain separate, so Taoism itself also has the concept of the Golden Body.

Regardless of which tradition it came from, it represented a certain state.

After death, the physical body is indestructible, not worn down by time.

It signified a level of physical robustness.

True Body Completion put Wang Sheng on that path; the physical cultivation itself was a vast and fearful way.

At completion, his body had been thoroughly adjusted, not to mention the control of his strength; he was inherently very powerful.

The most noticeable change was actually the balance of the Five Elements.

Originally, due to the emergence of the “Five Internal Gods, Chang Zai,” the Five Elements were somewhat imbalanced, affecting the use of Divine Skills of the Five Organs. However, True Body Completion seemed to have suppressed some of this imbalance.

The feeling was extremely clear, his body felt significantly more comfortable.

Although he had not yet tried, Wang Sheng knew that his usage of “Chang Zai” must have increased.

And with the appearance of the Golden Body, besides the balance being strengthened once more, the most noticeable was the enhancement of physical fitness.

“Golden Body Immortal,” with the help of the progress bar, the saying became a fact, if Wang Sheng were to die and leave behind his body, without external interference, for tens of thousands of years or even longer, his body would not disperse, and this was just the beginning of “Golden Body.”

With the growth of the “Golden Body” progress bar, this time would only become longer.

Wang Sheng’s strength and self-healing power received a significant boost, with the self-healing power even reaching a terrifying level.

He took out the Black Dragon Spear and drew it across his palm, using the force of “momentum” with this strike.

The spear momentum itself carried destructive power meant to inhibit self-healing, but after the body reached “Golden Body,” even this momentum could hardly stop such healing, and the wound quickly closed up.

“Even without utilizing the power of Qi Blood Power, my self-healing ability surpasses that of plant-type Demon Kings like the Blood Locust King.”

The first time Wang Sheng faced the Blood Locust King, its formidable self-healing ability was extremely strong, and it was by utilizing momentum that he limited that powerful self-healing. Now, momentum couldn’t suppress his own self-healing, indicating that in certain respects, the pure physical self-healing ability had surpassed that of the Blood Locust King.

If he used Qi Blood Power, his self-healing ability might become even more powerful.

At the same time, the emergence of the “Golden Body” spurred the enhancement of both Qi Blood Power and Blood Qi, which was also an increase in strength.

Right now, even if he used only his physical body coupled with the power of Blood Qi, he would not be weaker than any top Great Grandmaster.
