Chapter 58: Pros and Cons of Body Tempering Technique

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Thinking of this…

Chen Daoxuan started cultivating the Dragon Python Heaven-Devouring Technique once again. He had a premonition that he would be able to completely master this technique today.

As expected.

As this body-tempering cultivation technique circulated, Chen Daoxuan’s stomach started to squirm wildly. What followed was a strong sense of hunger.

The hunger was so strong that it almost drowned his consciousness.

Ever since Chen Daoxuan reached the Qi Condensation stage and was able to abstain from eating, he had never felt such intense hunger.

It was as if he would starve to death the next second if he did not eat.

Fortunately, Chen Daoxuan was prepared. He immediately took out a fist-sized piece of roasted demon beast meat from his storage bag and began to chew.

The flesh of the blood-spotted sea snake was fresh and tender, but it had been stored in the storage bag for several months after all. The taste was definitely not as fresh as when it was just killed.

But at this moment.

Chen Daoxuan, who was already so hungry that his eyes were dizzy, did not care about the taste at all.

One piece after another of demon beast roasted meat was chewed roughly by him before being swallowed.

In less than the time for an incense stick to burn.

Chen Daoxuan’s small stomach was filled with at least a few hundred kilograms of roasted meat from the blood-spotted sea snake.

One had to know that this was not ordinary livestock. This was demon beast meat. The energy contained in its meat was difficult for even Aura Refining cultivators to digest, let alone ordinary people.

However, after eating so much meat, Chen Daoxuan’s stomach didn’t change except for a slight bulge.

“Burp!”

After eating for another half an incense stick, Chen Daoxuan burped. He felt that he finally couldn’t eat anymore.

“Gulp! Gulp! Gululu!”

In the training room, a dull rumble suddenly sounded, like muffled thunder.

Chen Daoxuan knew that it was the sound of his stomach digesting the blood-spotted sea snake meat.

As the demon beast meat in his stomach was digested bit by bit, a warm current that was completely different from true qi flowed out of his stomach and quickly circulated throughout his body.

Among them, the place where the heat flow gathered the most was his skin.

Chen Daoxuan felt that his skin was being tempered bit by bit by this heat flow, and the strength of his skin was also visibly increasing.

Although the increase in physical defense was completely incomparable to a magic tool, if he could continue to increase it like this…

Chen Daoxuan believed that one day, he would be able to reach the level where his body could withstand magic tools as the old man from the auction house had said.

Moreover…

Chen Daoxuan discovered another benefit of the body-tempering technique.

That was to increase the success rate of a cultivator’s foundation establishment.

As everyone knew, in addition to the Foundation Establishment Pill, a cultivator needed at least a Grade 2 spirit meridian to help them build their foundation.

The reason why these two resources were needed was because during the process of Foundation Establishment, True Qi would transform into True Essence.

Compared to the usual docility of the true qi in the qi sea, when a cultivator broke through to the foundation establishment stage, the transformation of the true qi into true essence would cause the qi sea to expand violently. At this time, the docility of the true essence was particularly important.

The effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill was to make the true essence of the cultivator’s transformation extremely docile, directly overcoming the difficulty of expanding the sea of vital energy.

The second major obstacle of Foundation Establishment was the infusion of spiritual energy into the body.

Due to the transformation of true qi into true essence and the expansion of the sea of qi, a terrifying amount of spiritual qi was consumed in a short period of time.

At this time, unless it was a grade two spirit meridian or above, it was simply unable to support a cultivator to break through.

But at the same time, the spiritual energy infusion brought another problem, which was whether the cultivator’s body could withstand the damage caused by the spiritual energy infusion.

Some cultivators had clearly overcome the difficulty of expanding their Sea of Qi, but they fell under the barrier of spiritual energy infusion.

This was the scourge of a cultivator’s weak body.

This was also the reason why the descendants of the big families ate spiritual rice all year round.

The spiritual rice had the effect of nourishing the body and increasing its strength.

If he ate it for a long time, when he reached the Foundation Establishment realm in the future, he would not have to endure the most dangerous transformation of the Sea of Qi, but he would not fall from the spiritual energy infusion.

Practicing a body-tempering technique would obviously improve a cultivator’s body more than eating spiritual rice for a long time.

Not only that.

The improvement of a cultivator’s physical body could even speed up a cultivator’s cultivation speed to a certain extent.

This was because the total amount of spiritual energy a cultivator could refine every day was fixed. If it exceeded this amount, it would cause damage to the cultivator’s body.

However, what if the strength of the cultivator’s physical body increased?

At that time, the total amount of spiritual energy refined by cultivators would definitely increase, and the speed of cultivation would also increase.

Of course.

All of this was based on the premise that the cultivator could withstand the consumption brought by body refinement.

Just now, Chen Daoxuan had only cultivated for less than the time for two incense sticks to burn, and he had swallowed several hundred catties of demon beast roasted meat.

After all, the blood-spotted sea snake had been skinned and stripped of its bones. After removing the inedible meat, the remaining good meat only added up to more than 2,000 catties.

Chen Daoxuan killed one-tenth of them in a short while.

According to the market price, he had eaten at least 10 spirit stones in a short while.

And this was only the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn.

At his current cultivation speed, he would need to eat at least forty to fifty spirit stones worth of ingredients in a day.

If it was spiritual rice, it might be even more expensive.

Which cultivation force could afford such a method of cultivation?

Not to mention the Zhou Family of Guang ‘an Prefecture, even the Qianyuan Sword Sect couldn’t afford such consumption, right?

After all, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect had countless resources, but the number of disciples was also the highest in the Infinite Star Sea.

In such a large sect, everyone ate like this. No matter how big the family was, they would be poor from eating.

Thinking of this…

Chen Daoxuan’s original plan to let all the Chen family cultivators cultivate body-tempering cultivation techniques failed.

He estimated that in the future, only elite family disciples could cultivate body-tempering techniques. As for other ordinary family cultivators, the Chen family should not be able to afford it.

Shaking his head, Chen Daoxuan stopped thinking about it.

He stood up and stretched his body. The bones in his body cracked.

He walked out of the cave abode.

On the small square on the cliff.

Chen Daoxuan found that Chen Daochu had already brought the other eight Dao generation cultivators to practice their swordsmanship against the rising sun.

Chen Daoxuan watched silently and didn’t disturb him.

Even though he had only cultivated for a few months.

Chen Daochu had already broken through to Houtian Realm Level Four in succession. From this, one could see the huge gap between people with spiritual roots and ordinary mortals.

This was under the condition that Chen Daochu didn’t have enough cultivation resources.

If the Chens bought Meridian Opening Pills for their disciples with spiritual roots, they could even open up all the meridians in their bodies overnight, crossing the mortal realm and directly entering the Qi Condensation realm.

The reason Chen Daoxuan didn’t do so was because the clan’s spirit vein hadn’t been successfully cultivated yet. Even if everyone entered the Qi Refinement stage, they wouldn’t have enough spirit qi to cultivate.

He might as well study and cultivate now to temper his temperament.

“Chen Daolan, haven’t you eaten enough? Why are your hands shaking so much?”

When Chen Daochu saw Chen Daolan’s sword trembling in his hand, he immediately put on the appearance of a little adult and scolded.

Chen Daolan felt very wronged by his words. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she gritted her teeth and held them back.

If others could do it, she, Chen Daolan, could do it too.

Chen Daoxuan watched from the side and nodded in his heart.

Chen Daolan looked timid, but he was soft on the outside but tough on the inside. This kind of personality was very beneficial for cultivation.

He watched the crowd practice their sword techniques for a while.

Seeing that there were no major problems with Chen Daochu’s teaching, Chen Daoxuan didn’t come out to greet the crowd and directly flew in the direction of the flying sword factory..
