Chapter 476: Perfect Golden Body Is Not the Limit
As a martial artist, Tu Sisheng understood very well what this meant. Between martial artists of the same level, even if one had only 10% or 30% of their strength, let alone 50% of their strength, it could cause injury to the other. Of course, such injuries were usually minor, but it was always difficult to avoid injuries, and basically they had to use the method of unloading force to receive the injury.
But just now, I hit this young man with 50% of my strength, and this young man did not unload the force at all. Instead, he let the 50% of the strength be digested in his body. He was really relying on his body to withstand 50% of my strength, and his face just changed. Moreover, he completed the digestion in just a short moment. What does this mean?
This means that the strength of this young man's golden body has surpassed the so-called perfect and flawless golden body he knows.
Tu Sisheng turned to look at Yu Boyi and said, "Boyi, you have already achieved a perfect golden body. Come and take on 50% of my power and try."
Pei Ziheng said quickly: "Senior, you can't do that. My Golden Body Realm is different from the general Golden Body Realm. I have practiced the Iron Shirt and the Nuwa Body to enhance my strength. It is a Golden Body forged by the combined efforts of several techniques. It is different from the general perfect Golden Body. If you let Senior Yu take on 50% of your strength, it is very likely to cause internal injuries to Senior Yu!"
Xin Zhen laughed when he heard this. He said, "Silly boy, your intention is good, but if someone has a narrow mind, wouldn't he think that you are saying that Yu Boyi is not as good as you?"
Tu Sisheng turned around and smiled at Xin Zhen: "Your disciple has a heart of gold. I will just use 20% to 30% of my strength to try it out. Boyi, are you willing to give it a try?"
Yu Boyi smiled and said, "Of course I have to give it a try and see where the gap is."
Tu Sisheng's face condensed and he said, "Be careful!"
Yu Boyi's expression tensed up, and he immediately gathered his energy. Suddenly, his skin glowed faintly white like white jade, and his pores were almost invisible. He looked like mutton-fat jade, giving people the feeling that he was indestructible.
Tu Sisheng slowly slapped Yu Boyi on the chest, and suddenly there was a sound of metal colliding. Yu Boyi was shocked and took a few steps back. Then his face changed drastically, turning red, then white, and changed several times in a row. Suddenly he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his face returned to normal.
Let’s see each other clearly!
Tu Sisheng asked, "Boyi, how do you feel?"
Yu Boyi took a deep breath once or twice, then smiled and said, "It's not a good idea to take it head-on. Even if you have a perfect golden body, you can't take it head-on. You will inevitably get hurt. Although this injury is only minor and will heal in a few breaths, it's still an injury after all."
Yu Boyi looked at Pei Ziheng with a look of admiration and envy, and said, "Uncle Tu used 50% of his strength to hit you, but you didn't move at all. But when Uncle Tu used 30% of his strength to hit me, I was injured. Your golden body is much stronger than mine!"
Pei Ziheng said quickly: "Senior Yu, you are too kind. If Senior Tu attacks with all his strength, I definitely won't be able to take it. I estimate that at most I can only take 80% of Senior Tu's strength without getting hurt. If he adds one point more, I will definitely get hurt."
Xin Zhen couldn't help but touch his forehead and said to Tu Sisheng: "My disciple is devoted to cultivation and doesn't understand the ways of the world. Please don't bother with him."
Tu Sisheng was not angry but happy, and said: "It's okay, it's okay. Only with such a pure mind can one cultivate such a perfect golden body. It's amazing, really amazing! In other words, as long as you are willing to release the force, even if I hit you casually while you are standing, you will not be hurt, right?"
Pei Ziheng shook his head and said, "Senior Tu is just testing me in the most gentle way. If I use martial arts to enhance the destructive power of my true qi, I think I won't be able to withstand it."
Tu Sisheng laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "I've already used my martial arts, are you still going to stand there and let me hit you? Of course, you have to attack, dodge, and use various martial arts to fight back. When you can't resist, you can occasionally use your body to withstand it. This is how to use the golden body. There is no reason to use your body to withstand it!"
The conversation between Pei Ziheng and Tu Sisheng made Wei Chaqing and the other three, who had been silent, look at each other in surprise. How could this young man be so strong?
The four of them have made great progress in the past few years, but they have only just entered the Golden Core stage. Generally speaking, the realm of a warrior is not quite the same as that of a Qi Refiner. A warrior's cultivation speed is very slow, but a warrior can basically cross one realm to fight against a Qi Refiner. In other words, their ninth realm Qi Refiner is equivalent to the eighth realm of a warrior, and this young man is already an eighth realm warrior!
In other words, these four outstanding young men today are actually just equivalent to one young boy!
Wei Chaqing couldn't help but look at Xin Zhen, a man who was much younger than himself. His disciples were almost as good as himself, so what about his realm?
Wei Chaqing recalled that Xin Zhen easily defeated three veteran Jindan monks and was highly appreciated by the Great City God General Huo Guang. Could it be that...
Wei Chaqing looked at Xin Zhen with some surprise.
The direct disciple is already at the eighth level, so he can’t be at the eighth level, he must be at least... the ninth level!
Mountain top warrior!
The ninth realm, the mountain top realm, is the last realm among the three realms of spiritual training. Therefore, warriors in the ninth realm are also known as "masters of the end", which means that the martial arts path has come to an end.
Although the mountain-top master is not able to move mountains and overturn seas, he can still crack city walls with his fists and split rivers with his palms. His powerful qi is invulnerable to all evil and can ward off thousands of troops. His body is extremely strong, even stronger than the body of a Buddhist arhat. Once a qigong practitioner is approached, within ten feet, he will surely die unless he has a top-grade protective magic weapon or higher.
Wei Chaqing thought of Xin Zhen's ease when facing the three Jindan masters, and he guessed in his mind that he should have reached the ninth level of martial arts.
According to the difference in realm between warriors and Qi Refiners, a warrior at the ninth realm is already at the pinnacle of combat power in this world. After all, the Nascent Soul Realm of Qi Refiners is the pinnacle of combat power that can be seen in the world today, and a warrior at the ninth realm is basically on par with a Nascent Soul cultivator in terms of combat power.
There are very few warriors in the world who can reach this level. As far as Wei Chaqing has heard, there are only a dozen or so in the world, and they are either the heads of a sect or the elders of a sect.
And above that, there are cultivators in the tenth realm, who belong to another realm.
Ninth Realm Warrior...
Wei Chaqing sighed in his heart, thinking of those people in Huajing who despised Xin Zhen's identity as a warrior. He thought to himself, the person you despised back then has now stood at the top of the world, and what about you?
However, Wei Chaqing also knew that people like Xin Zhen were too rare. The path of martial arts was a rough road, and a dead end at that. It was still unknown what would happen in the future.
However, Wei Chaqing was still somewhat shocked. After all, Xin Zhen was already at the top of the mountain, and he was the one that even he and his senior teachers looked up to. It was really... incredible!
Song Shiyi and the others were also confused and could not control themselves. Originally, they came to Huashan Sect because they wanted to get close to Xin Zhen. After all, Xin Zhen had defeated the Jindan master and was qualified to make friends with him. It made sense for them to come and get close to him.
But they also had the intention of laughing at Xin Zhen. What they wanted to see was that although Xin Zhen himself had amazing cultivation, his sect was in its infancy after all and looked like a makeshift team. Then they would give him some guidance with the profound foundation of their own sect. Xin Zhen would be so grateful for the guidance that he would feel some sense of superiority from Xin Zhen.
But now Pei Ziheng has shattered their fantasy.
Without talking about the other members of Huashan Sect, Pei Ziheng alone is enough to keep the sect going. With Pei Ziheng around, even if all the other members of Huashan Sect died, the sect would still be able to rise again. This sect can no longer be destroyed!
A brilliant genius is a supreme treasure to any sect. For example, the divine monk Ci Ning, after seeing Yu Boyi's perfect golden body, even thought of destroying the Wuhou Sect and taking Yu Boyi as his disciple.
Pei Ziheng's talent is even stronger than Yu Boyi's. How did Huashan Sect recruit such a disciple? How did Xin Zhen get so lucky?
Coupled with the mountain protection formation, Nuwa body refining method, and so on, the foundation displayed by Huashan Sect is not only stronger than martial arts sects such as Wuhou Sect, but even the Yufeng Pavilion where Wei Chaqing came from, the Yulu Sect where She Ziyi came from, the Qingyun Sect where Shen Xigu came from, and the Yanyue Sect where Song Shiyi came from may not be able to compare with it.
Seeing that it was getting dark and having roughly figured out the body measurement method, Xin Zhen realized that there was nothing new about it, and it was just the same old method. So he suggested that everyone go to the sect to rest.
Everyone readily agreed and wanted to see more about the Huashan Sect.
Xin Zhen brought them to Lingshan Buddhist Palace, and they were shocked by its scale.
This is inevitable. After all, the Lingshan Buddhist Palace has a total area of 75 acres. The main building is divided into two parts, the south and the north. The five tower tops on the outside are designed and decorated based on the prototype of the "Hua Tower" in the Dunhuang murals.
Inside, there are tall columns, large-span beams, towering domes, and large halls. Each space is independent and interconnected, and it consists of a foyer, corridor, tower hall, altar, etc.
Such a large-scale building is not surprising for those great traditions, but it is quite surprising that Huashan Sect is just a fledgling sect and has such a huge scale.
Xin Zhen asked Xin Qi to receive these people and arranged rooms for them in the Fan Palace. He then arranged a banquet for them. Fan Jie, Xiao Feng, the Four Friends of Meizhuang and others came to accompany them.
When Tu Sisheng and others saw Xiao Feng and the Four Friends of Meizhuang, they also felt that the high-end combat power of the Huashan Sect was also extraordinary.
The Four Friends of Plum Manor were obviously veteran Jindan masters. Although Xiao Feng could not see their strength, he had the demeanor of a master and was much more dignified than the Four Friends of Plum Manor.
Xiao Feng loved drinking, and when he drank too much he would easily become in high spirits. When he was having fun, he accidentally leaked a little bit of his breath, which made everyone present's hair stand on end. Only then did they know that Xiao Feng was actually a member of the Dragon Clan!
The next day, Xin Qi arranged for everyone to visit Lingshan, which shocked them again.
They didn't expect that outside the Brahma Palace, there was actually an Yintan City covering an area of nearly ten acres.
The Five-Seal Mandala itself is not for living, but for display. It is nearly ten meters long and has six floors. Its appearance is solemn and splendid. The dazzling golden roof, huge gilded vase, eye-catching pagodas and prayer flags complement each other, which looks extremely charming.
Its interior is holy and gorgeous, fully integrating Tibetan decorative techniques such as painting, murals, wood carvings, thangkas, wall decorations, and gold plating, beautifully displaying the unique mandala art.
However, the buildings only make Lingshan look quite complete, not like a newly established sect. The foundation of a sect still lies in its people.
On the second day, they met Pei Ziheng's fourth junior sister, fifth junior brother and sixth junior brother, all of whom were boys and girls in their teens.
In addition, there are many teenage boys and girls, and I don’t know their ranking. There are about a hundred people on the mountain. It is said that there are about a thousand disciples, but they have all gone down the mountain for training recently.
However, just these one hundred or so disciples made Tu Sisheng amazed.
Xin Zhen has always been open to exchanges between sects, especially when the Huashan Sect was first established. Although the skills followed the path of the cultivation world, deep down it was still the world of martial arts. Whether it was Xin Zhen himself, Ren Yingying, or Zhou Zhiruo, their knowledge and habits were actually those of the world of martial arts.
The environment we are in now is the world of cultivation. Although force is respected, there are also many subtle differences.
If the Huashan Sect wants to integrate into this world, it must communicate more with the sects in this world. Whether it is the etiquette of various social interactions, the various skills, or the experience in combat, comprehensive communication is needed to truly integrate into it.
Tu Sisheng brought more than a dozen disciples to participate in the Heroes Conference, who happened to be the best communication partners. Tu Sisheng also wanted to let his disciples see more of the market. The two sides hit it off and immediately organized a small-scale competition.
However, Xin Zhen originally wanted the Huashan Sect disciples to learn more about the strengths of the old sect, but he did not expect that Tu Sisheng, Wei Chaqing and others would be stunned during the competition.
First, there was a senior brother of Yu Boyi. Seeing that Duan Jingwan was very quiet and virtuous, and also very pretty, he fell in love with her. So he thought of competing with her and showing off his own skills, hoping that he could make her fall in love with him. Then, wouldn't this lifelong event be solved?
So he took the lead in challenging Duan Jingwan, however, what he didn't expect was that Duan Jingwan not only achieved a perfect golden body, but also had extremely superb boxing skills. When she used a set of skills called Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, this senior brother suddenly had no power to fight back and was knocked into Taihu Lake.
Duan Jingwan's calmness before the attack and her brutality after the attack stunned everyone. Of course, her cultivation level also shocked Tu Sisheng and others.
Even though Duan Jingwan's cultivation is one level lower than Pei Ziheng's, Duan Jingwan is younger than Pei Ziheng. A seventeen-year-old girl, she has already cultivated to the Golden Body Realm. Based on this progress, it should be no problem for her to break through to the eighth level before she turns twenty.
This is a genius who is no less talented than Pei Ziheng!
