Chapter 278: Chapter 111 [Zen Meditation Travel Study Plan] (8200 words)_2

In that era, methods of Body Refining were myriad and varied.

Later, through countless generations of cultivators’ summarization and refinement, these methods were gradually streamlined and perfected, ultimately giving rise to various body refining techniques.

In the Domain Realm, there were many cultivators who walked the path of body refining, and numerous body refining techniques were passed down.

However, generally speaking, no matter how many techniques there were, they all followed three main paths.

The first type is External Object Body Refining, using medicinal baths to nourish and strengthen the flesh, while simultaneously breaking down and rebuilding the body, pushing its limits to the extreme, bit by bit breaking through.

Families that practiced this type of body refinement often guarded secret family recipes for medicinal baths and herbs, along with one or two techniques for repairing and nurturing the body.

This method was the most prevalent among body cultivators in the Domain Realm, but it often did not lead to great achievements.

When my elders in the Gu Family taught me, they spoke of this first path, saying that the human body has its limits. Even with secret recipes for medicinal baths and techniques for body repair, damage is still damage.

Often, it may seem like the body has been repaired, but the internal damage is unseen and untouchable.

Therefore, those who follow the first path, the method of external object body refining, find it very difficult to reach the pinnacle.

The second path, my elders in the Gu Family deemed as the demonic way!

It is... Refining Artifacts!

Using refined magical artifacts and treasures to replace one’s own body. If the legs are not strong enough, replace the legs; if the arms are not strong enough, replace the body; if the internal organs are not strong enough, create a magical artifact organ..."

Chen Yan, upon hearing this, widened his eyes: "What the f*ck! That cyberpunk?"

Gu Qingyi glanced at Chen Yan: "Not what you imagine, replacing some parts of the body and turning oneself into a half-human, half-machine monster... not that!"

"Then what is it?"

Gu Qingyi thought for a moment and said: "Hmm, you know Nezha, right?"

"Of course, hasn’t it recently been a box office hit."

"Nezha’s body is made of..."

"Lotus root?" Chen Yan’s eyes lit up: "Is it that Seven-Colored Treasure Lotus... lotus root?"

"That’s the idea, something similar." Gu Qingyi sighed: "The second type of body cultivators I’m talking about are those who seek out genius treasures everywhere in the world to replace their body parts.

These genius treasures have better quality than human flesh and can hold and absorb more primordial qi!

These genius treasures are refined into magical artifacts to replace parts of the body, or in extreme cases, the entire body!

I’ve heard that someone refined their body using genius treasures, leaving only the head, replacing everything below the neck!

With the new limbs, or even a completely replaced body,

because the body is made of genius treasures, it can absorb more primordial qi, breaking the limit of essences nourishing the body that I mentioned before!

For ordinary human cultivators, essences nourishing the body, at most no more than thirty years, resulting in a body that is resistant to cuts and stabs.

But if you replace it with a body made of genius treasures, the treasures can absorb much more primordial qi!"

Chen Yan nodded: "I can imagine... but why is this path considered demonic by your elders?"

"Because it doesn’t match!"

Gu Qingyi said seriously: "We are human! Our primordial spirit matches our own body best by nature! Once you replace it with a new body, regardless of its strength,

there will definitely be issues with the compatibility between the flesh and the primordial spirit! No matter how much you train and try to adapt and get used to it, it will never match as perfectly as your original body!

There will always be something not quite right at subtle points!"

Chen Yan nodded thoughtfully.

Like an airplane.

We all know that airplanes can fly because of their wings.

But if you add eight more pairs of wings to an airplane that originally had two,

can it still fly?

Certainly not!

Because the airplane’s overall design, with its original pair of wings, was based on precise calculations, aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, etc.

Suddenly adding eight more pairs of wings breaks the original optimal state!

"When the primordial spirit does not match the body, over time, even if the body is reinforced with genius treasures, the primordial spirit cannot adapt, leading to issues.

So, in the Domain Realm, those body cultivators who use genius treasures to modify their bodies often end up going mad, their minds becoming unstable, primordial spirit weakening, and their cultivation paths ultimately stunted, unable to reach the summit."

Speaking softly, Gu Qingyi said: "The strongest body cultivator I’ve seen modified with genius treasures was when I was on the Prison Suppression Platform, an Immortal Army Town General who came to support from elsewhere.

That guy... his cultivation reached the early stage of the Golden Body Realm, one realm higher than me.

But I could see he was not quite right, I felt if we really fought, I would at most be heavily injured but could still trade for his life!"

Understood!

A body is best in its original form.

Chen Yan nodded: "Then the third path you mentioned, it should be the one you are following, right?"

"Yes!"

Gu Qingyi nodded solemnly, his voice also becoming serious: "The third path is Borrowing Qi to Refine the Body!"
