"Cough, cough!"

Clearing his throat, he then asked, "What brings you here?"

It was already dark when he returned from the Imperial Palace yesterday, and Cai Kun came to find him, saying that Liu Sheng had instructed him to notify immediately upon emergence from seclusion.

Just today, Chen Xuan also arrived, so he conveyed the message for Liu Sheng to come to the Three Judicial Departments.

"This kid wants to enter the Stone Cave and seek the Stone Race's Mother Liquid!"

"What?!"

Even Zhan Tian's face changed suddenly, then his gaze slowly shifted to Chen Xuan, "Are you tired of living, you brat? Do you have a death wish?"

Speaking of the Stone Cave, there's no one in Great Yu more familiar with it than him.

Back then, he risked his life to steal the Stone Race's Mother Liquid, but he was gravely injured as well.

But the outcome was worth it for him.

Using the Stone Race's Mother Liquid, his body far surpassed the other tycoons of Great Yu.

With the strength of the late stage of the Eighth Layer of Dao Realm, he was utterly unafraid of those few peak late stage powers.

However, now thinking back, he shuddered with fear.

It was because he was young, fearless of heaven and earth.

If it were him now, he wouldn't dare even on penalty of death.

"Elder Zhan, you don't have to put it like that, I do have some confidence."

Him courting death?

What nonsense is that!

Even fools know that living poorly is better than dying well; no way he's seeking death!

"You've got a piece of confidence!"

Zhan Tian looked at him disdainfully.

That's a Stone Cave, one of the top three perilous places in Great Yu, and even with his peak Seventh Layer Dao Realm power, he's nothing but a shrimp.

Furthermore, in recent years, for some reason, the perilous places have gotten increasingly dangerous.

Especially the top-ten ranked ones.

Compared to when he broke into Stone Cave before, it's even harder now.

"But His Majesty said he could do nothing about it!"

This time, Liu Sheng spoke, although his tone was indifferent, Zhan Tian could hear his discontent towards Emperor Yu.

"You went to seek him out?"

"Nonsense!"

Liu Sheng rolled his eyes at him, wondering if his ears were failing him, as he had just said it.

Zhan Tian didn't mind, but his gaze did subtly change.

"Seems like the old buddy has some grievances!"

"And a little hope you'll guide him!"

Liu Sheng looked at him, having to admit that in terms of physical cultivation, Zhan Tian indeed surpasses them.

And the gap is significant.

"Are you saying... Sacred Body cultivation?"

Zhan Tian's lips slightly curled upwards, feeling very pleased inside.

Being a tycoon of Great Yu, having Liu Sheng lower his dignity to plead with him, nothing feels more satisfying.

"Laugh if you want, I'll admit my body isn't as good as yours!"

Liu Sheng glared at him, ticked off by his smug look, making the usually elegant him hurl some coarse words, yet he had to admit, in terms of physical body, Zhan Tian's ahead by a long shot.

He even unexpectedly cultivated a Sacred Body!

This point even Emperor Yu can't compare; you know Emperor Yu's strong body comes from Qin Emperor Sacred Land, not his own talent!

"Where do we stand in our relationship I wouldn't laugh at you!"

Zhan Tian restrained the urge to laugh, speaking seriously.

In front of juniors, it's still necessary to save Liu Sheng some face.

"Sacred Body?"

Chen Xuan heard of it for the first time, so he asked, "What's that?"

"Don't know, do you?"

Zhan Tian looked at him proudly, the most satisfying thing in his life was cultivating a Sacred Body on his own.

It's because of the Sacred Body that although he's just in the late stage of the Eighth Layer of Dao Realm, even those few at the peak don't want to fight him.

"Alright, enough boasting, what's the point of showing off in front of juniors?"

Liu Sheng scolded.

Then he explained to Chen Xuan, "Sacred Body cultivation is extremely difficult, throughout tens of thousands of years in Great Yu, only Zhan Tian did it, although he hasn't cultivated a complete Sacred Body, just about thirty percent."

"But even thirty percent is extremely terrifying."

"You have to know that the Three Dukes and I are all at peak Eighth Layer, but he..."

Throwing a finger towards Zhan Tian, "He's just in the late stage of the Eighth Layer, yet he's not weaker than us, even if given a choice, we'd rather face peak Eighth Layer opponents than him!"

"That's the horror of Sacred Body!"

Above, Zhan Tian at this time felt invigorated, a sensation penetrating through to his skull.

He never thought that in Liu Sheng's mind, he was such an impressive figure.

"Feeling great!"

In a cheerful mood, he continued, "Since I'm pleased today, I'll explain the Sacred Body to you, even Liu Sheng only knows the basics."

"Please enlighten us, Elder Zhan!"

Speaking, Chen Xuan stood and bowed respectfully toward Zhan Tian.

Indeed, none of Great Yu's tycoons are simple.

If not told, perhaps he'd spend a lifetime… or a very long time before learning it.

"Hmm!"

Zhan Tian nodded, satisfied with his attitude.

And Liu Sheng at this time had a hint of pride flash in his eyes, the Sacred Body is indeed Zhan Tian's undisclosed secret, without buttering him up, it's not easy to get him to speak.

As for whether Chen Xuan can be trained, we'll have to see.

"The difficulty of Sacred Body cultivation lies in the Jade Bone!"

"To put it simply, the Jade Bone is the foundation for cultivating a Sacred Body, but...."

Stopping deliberately here, he turned to Liu Sheng, asking, "Do you know the difference between Jade Bones?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Sheng frowned, Jade Bone… has differences?

As a tycoon of Great Yu, he's seen almost all the books in the Imperial Palace, yet he hasn't found records on this.

Zhan Tian seeing his puzzlement, the smile in his eyes became even more pronounced.
