Chapter 166: Great Godfiend Body, Qi and Blood True Dragon, Gu Jianxian Comprehends The Dao
“The Jin Nation hasn’t lost yet.”
The crisp voice suddenly caught everyone’s attention.
Not to mention the onlooking cultivators, even Huangfu Tianlong and the first generation disciples of Jin Nation Academy couldn’t help but look at the person who spoke too.
He was a newly matriculated disciple.
Sensing the gaze of the crowd, the latter was a little timid.
“What nonsense are you babbling about?”
The feather-robed man frowned and looked at the newly matriculated disciple, thinking that he was just spouting nonsense.
“Senior Brother, I’m not babbling nonsense. There’s someone who can defeat him.”
The latter bit the bullet and said with a firm expression.
At this moment, everyone was curious.
They wondered who he was talking about.
“Who is it?”
The man in the feathered robe was also a little curious.
“It’s Ye Ping. We won’t be defeated if Senior Brother Ye is here.”
He continued to reveal a name.
As soon as he said that, all the newly matriculated disciples, including some fourth generation disciples, couldn’t help but speak up.
“Yes. If Senior Brother Ye was here, he’d definitely win.”
“Oh, right, I forgot about Senior Brother Ye. He might be a few years older than Huangfu Tianlong, but he has condensed his Blood and Qi Furnace and can definitely defeat him.”
“Yes, the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique might be powerful, but the Blood and Qi Furnace is not too bad either.”
“Indeed, even if Senior Brother Ye can’t win, he can at least put up a fight. Besides, Senior Brother Ye is also a newly matriculated disciple. In terms of generation, Huangfu Tianlong is a fourth generation disciple so even if Senior Brother Ye gets defeated, it would still be honorable.”
At this moment, all the newly matriculated disciples spoke up one after another. They all thought that Ye Ping would be able to win, and some also thought that even if Ye Ping lost, it wouldn’t be a terrible defeat.
However, their words immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding cultivators.
“Ye Ping? Why does that name sound familiar?”
“Is there such a genius in the Jin Nation Academy? Condensed the Blood and Qi Furnace in his early twenties?”
“If it’s true, the Blood and Qi Furnace is indeed not weaker than the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique.”
“Those who have the Blood and Qi Furnace will have the physique of a dragon, and if there is such a genius, he can put up a fight.”
“I reckon this Ye Ping is a secret genius of the Jin Nation Academy and wants to shine at the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.”
“Since there is such an existence, why didn’t they get him to come over sooner?”
Everyone was discussing curiously. In their eyes, the Jin Nation Academy might be weak but they definitely had a trump card. Hence, they believed it.
At this moment, Huangfu Tianlong also developed an interest as he looked at the disciples of Jin Nation Academy and spoke up.
“If there really is such a genius, I hope that he will come out and fight.”
His eyes were filled with battle intent as he was eager to fight Ye Ping.
The reason being, the Blood and Qi Furnace was indeed not inferior.
“Senior Brother Ye is not in the academy, he left because he has something to attend to.”
“If you’re willing to wait, we can find a way to contact Senior Brother Ye.”
“Yes, we can go and contact him but we’re not lying.”
Hearing that, the newly matriculated disciples were a little awkward because Ye Ping was not in the academy. Otherwise, they would have naturally gone to ask him to come over.
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
However, at this moment, the man in the feathered robe chided the disciples.
He was indeed a bit curious at first and really thought there was some expert, but after hearing Ye Ping’s name, his heart was filled with disappointment.
Hence, he told them to stop talking and embarrassing themselves.
“Senior Brother, Senior Brother Ye is indeed strong enough to take on this battle.”
Some newly matriculated disciples also continued to speak up, thinking that Ye Ping was not weak.
“Shut up.”
The man in the feathered robe was a little angered. ‘Is this not embarrassing enough?’
However, at this moment, Huangfu Tianlong spoke up.
“I am challenging the Ten Nations, not because I want to pursue the path of invincibility, nor am I trying to humiliate any academy.”
“To be honest, if I tell you, you may not believe me, but I just want to be defeated.”
“I want to be defeated, because only defeat can make me realize that I am not strong enough.”
“Senior Brother, if there is indeed such a genius in Jin Nation, I hope that he will come forth and fight with me.”
Huangfu Tianlong slowly said those words but that idea made everyone shocked.
Everyone in this world was thinking of seeking victory, who would want to be defeated?
However, only the true powerhouses would understand the meaning of Huangfu Tianlong’s words.
Almost everyone was in the pursuit of victory, but those who sought defeat were truly terrifying. Such people’s intentions were too great as they wanted to learn from their setbacks and defeat, so as to improve tremendously.
That was truly terrifying. If they succeeded, their future would be boundless.
“Senior Brother Huangfu, the Jin Nation Academy does not have such a genius, it’s just that these Senior Brothers are still a bit unconvinced. It’s an indisputable fact that Jin Nation has lost, and we’d also like to congratulate you for defeating Ten Nations and breaking the record.”
The man in the feathered robe said, willingly admitting defeat.
As soon as he said that, the disappointment in Huangfu Tianlong’s eyes intensified.
He sighed and finally shook his head and said.
“I will stay in Jin Nation’s capital until the Ten Nations Grand Tournament. Please relay my words to Ye Ping if he comes by.”
Huangfu Tianlong said. Perhaps, in the eyes of others, the Jin Nation disciples were lying, but Huangfu Tianlong hoped it was true. He was waiting for someone who could defeat him.
He was looking forward even though
 there might not be such a person.
He left. Despite having defeated the academies in the Ten Nations, he did not seem happy at all.
Everyone was confused as they really didn’t understand what Huangfu Tianlong was thinking.
Perhaps, that was what a genius was.
At this moment, in the Qingyun Dao Sect.
For the Qingyun Dao Sect, no matter what happened outside, it definitely wouldn’t be relayed to them.
In the rear cliff, Ye Ping was seated cross-legged at the side.
A few days ago, thousands of disciples of the Fiendcelestial Cult had also expiated plenty of resentful spirits at the Linhe Ghost Grave.
Ye Ping could not let go of so much merit.
Although the massive amount of merit could not compare to the amount that he would receive if he expiated millions of resentful spirits, it was still quite a considerable amount.
It was enough to help him improve some of his strength.
Realm, Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique, Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures, Golden Wheel of Expiation.
Now, there were four things that could be upgraded.
The Golden Wheel of Transformation could be neglected for now.
As for the Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures, he could only speed up the cultivation speed for now. 36 times would be alright. If he wanted to obtain a Mystical Ability, he would have to open 72 Immortal Apertures and use the power of his merit.
Still, it wasn’t possible to open 72 Immortal Apertures.
Hence, he would not consider the Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures for now.
As for his cultivation level, Ye Ping did not want to consider raising the realm for the time being. After all, he was still studying it and decided that it would be better to find a perfect Foundation Establishment method before improving his realm.
Hence, he settled on physical body.
Yes, physical body.
Now, he was still at the Little Godfiend Body Major Perfection stage and not the Great Godfiend. Although he was only half a step away, Ye Ping was well aware of how great the difference was.
It was akin to the difference between Major Perfection of Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core realm.
No matter how much one advanced in the Foundation Establishment realm, they were still not in the Golden Core realm.
It was a qualitative change.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping did not waste any time, and the power of merit in his body turned into spiritual energy.
That was not all. The 36 Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures also began sucking in spiritual energy like crazy at the same time.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Ye Ping was constantly tempering his physical body.
The Little Godfiend body was a step away from the Great Godfiend. Once he broke through, the difference would be worlds apart.
Not far away, Gu Jianxian stared at the sword mark on the ground.
Da Xu sat on the cliff, quietly watching Ye Ping. His eyes were glued onto Ye Ping. After all, a wastrel like Gu Jianxian was not worth looking at.
As for Xia Qingmo, she stood beside Da Xu, looking out at Su Changyu on the front cliff.
Below the cliff, Gu Jianxian looked at the sword mark quietly.
At first glance, it seemed ordinary.
After looking again, he realized that there was something.
When he looked at it the third time, there was some surprise in Gu Jianxian’s calm gaze.
When he looked at it the fourth time, various sword techniques appeared in Gu Jianxian’s eyes.
As he continued to look, more and more sword moves were revealed.
One turned into two, two turned into three, and three turned into a million.
Gu Jianxian’s eyes were full of shock.
He discovered that the seemingly ordinary sword mark was actually continuously deducing sword moves, which was indeed amazing.
“Infinite sword moves, infinite technique, infinite sword intent.”
Gu Jianxian was shocked.
As a supreme Sword Immortal, he naturally knew that the Supreme Sword Dao had three realms of intent.
The first realm was perceiving everything in the superficial sense. The more sword moves learned, the better.
The second realm was looking beyond the superficial sense of things. Ten thousand sword moves would turn into one.
The third realm of intent was to still perceive everything in the superficial sense. Ten thousand sword moves from one sword.
Now, he was stagnating at the peak of the second realm.
Ten thousand sword moves could be turned into one in his hands.
Everything in the world could be leveled by one sword.
The karma of heaven and earth could be leveled by one sword.
Everyone could be leveled by one sword.
However, he still couldn’t comprehend the last realm.
However, what he didn’t expect was that this small sword mark actually contained the second realm, the infinite sword.
How could he not be shocked?
The sword technique was infinite and there were continuous deviations, making him feel different.
The more he looked at it, the more astonished he was and the more he comprehended.
In fact, this sword mark contained more than just Ye Ping’s sword technique. It also contained Ye Ping’s Endless Sword Diagram.
It was difficult for ordinary cultivators to comprehend something, but Gu Jianxian was still the world’s greatest Sword Immortal, so he could naturally see the Endless Sword Diagram.
It was precisely because of this that the Gu Jianxian had a comprehension. Otherwise, how could a few sword techniques give him a comprehension?
Gu Jianxian stared at the sword mark, his gaze full of expectation as if he had already become completely immersed in it.
On top of the cliff, Da Xu looked away before turning to look at Gu Jianxian again.
Realizing that Gu Jianxian seemed to be immersed in staring at the sword mark, he couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Indeed, he was not only a wastrel, he was also a little foolish as he got really immersed in the sword mark.
On the other hand, Ye Ping’s Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique had already reached the end.
The Ancient Godfiend Body Tempering Technique required only spiritual energy and not time. As long as there was enough spiritual energy, everything would be fine.
Ye Ping converted almost all of his merit into spiritual energy to temper his body.
However, he was still a little short of it.
That tiny difference was unacceptable for Ye Ping.
However, he suddenly thought of something and immediately took out the emerald gourd.
The gourd would automatically absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. After such a long time, it naturally condensed a large amount of spiritual energy.
It could be of some help to him.
He took out the emerald gourd, and at this moment, the terrifying spiritual energy came surging over.
Like a flood, it broke through the realm.
Roar!
A terrifying dragon roar filled the air.
At this moment, everyone in the entire Qingyun Dao Sect heard the terrifying dragon roar.
Da Xu, Xia Qingmo, and even Gu Jianxian couldn’t help but look in Ye Ping’s direction.
“What’s happening?”
Su Changyu, who was on the cliff, was still thinking about life. At this moment, his expression changed and he was extremely flustered, but he remained calm on the surface.
“There’s an earthquake, there’s an earthquake. Hurry up and run.”
“Eldest Senior Brother, hurry and run. There’s an earthquake.”
“There are ferocious beasts attacking. Sect Leader, hurry up and run.”
“Damn it, what’s going on? Is that guy surnamed Zhu here?”
Xu Luochen, Wang Zhuoyu, Xue Zhuan, and Lin Bei dashed out of their rooms, completely clueless about what happened.
“Quickly move all the valuable things away.”
Daoist Tai Hua ran out from the main hall with a nervous expression.
“Oh dear, oh dear. I’m going to die, I’m going to die, I’m going to die. Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Sister, save me.”
Chen Lingrou ran out of the room and started yelling.
“Hush, there’s no calamity, Ye Ping has just broken through. Go to the rear cliff and take a look.”
At this moment, Xiao Muxue appeared and her words made everyone calm down.
However, soon, the people rushed to the rear cliff.
On the cliff, an extremely terrifying crimson True Dragon hovered above the sky.
When Su Changyu and the others rushed in, they were all dumbfounded.
‘This is unbelievable.’
They were completely stunned. They knew that Ye Ping was strong, but not to such an extent. He changed their impression of him again and again.
“What kind of cultivation technique is this? Why does it seem like Ye Ping is the reincarnation of a True Dragon?”
“Not only is he the reincarnation of a True Dragon, but I think he’s a dragon himself.”
“What dragon? A dragon?”
“Who taught you this cultivation technique? How can it be so strong?”
Their eyes were filled with shock.
In particular, Su Changyu was even more surprised and wondered who gave Ye Ping that cultivation technique.
Above the dome of the sky.
It was a True Dragon that was a hundred feet long and extremely lifelike. However, it was engulfed in blood and it looked extremely menacing.
Ye Ping was below the True Dragon.
Boom.
Ye Ping’s Blood and Qi Furnace appeared, and there were various ancient words above it that seemed like Dao talismans and ancient texts.
Initially, Ye Ping’s furnace was three feet long, but now, it was 72 feet long and it seemed extremely terrifying as it covered heaven and the earth.
Ye Ping’s physical body was also metamorphosing rapidly as it was shrouded in golden light that looked like a dazzling sun.
His Blood and Qi were terrifying, as if a True Dragon was inhabiting in him. There were sounds of thunder between breaths.
Ahem!
Ahem!
Ahem!
At this moment, Ye Ping suddenly coughed blood.
“Ye Ping.”
Daoist Tai Hua was the first to tense up, but Xiao Muxue immediately interjected.
“Master, Ye Ping is alright. The blood he vomited contains the impurities in his organs. He is refining his organs and it’s going to be very beneficial to him.”
Xiao Muxue immediately spoke up and everyone felt relieved.
“I can’t imagine that such a cultivation technique actually exists in this world. I wonder who Ye Ping met to actually obtain this supreme Body Tempering technique.”
Xiao Muxue murmured, thinking that Ye Ping was too lucky to have obtained the supreme Body Tempering technique.
“Unfortunately, I’m a Sword Dao cultivator. Otherwise, I would try it too.”
Su Changyu spoke up too. Although he didn’t look like he was very envious, he felt extremely sour.
Not far away, Ye Ping coughed up eleven mouthfuls of blood in a row, each of which was black.
Those were the remaining portion of impurities in his organs.
After coughing up eleven mouthfuls of blood, the internal organs would be completely refined and would contain unparalleled power.
Besides, the cultivation method of the Great Godfiend body was targeted at the five organs.
The Little Godfiend body tempered the physical body while the Great Godfiend targeted the five organs.
Saint on the inside and king on the outside.
Roar!
At this moment, the Qi and Blood True Dragon suddenly pounced on Ye Ping.
The lid of the furnace above Ye Ping’s head was lifted, and the True Dragon’s blood and Qi were sucked in.
As the furnace lid closed, a terrifying roar sounded.
The people in the entire mountain range could hear the terrifying roar.
Five minutes passed.
Finally, Ye Ping subdued the True Dragon, and soon, the surging blood and Qi entered Ye Ping’s body.
At this moment, a True Dragon that was almost materialized was in the Blood and Qi Furnace.
It was the symbol of the Major Perfection of physical cultivation. It was the Qi and Blood True Dragon.
The Blood and Qi Furnace was the dream of countless physical cultivators, and when the Qi and Blood Furnace was complete, it would turn into a heaven and earth furnace that devoured everything and refined it into energy.
When the physique was strengthened again, the Qi and Blood True Dragon would be condensed.
Boom!
Ye Ping’s realm also began to loosen up a little, and the terrifying physique made Ye Ping’s realm increase.
After all, with such a terrifying physique, one would not be able to sustain if their realm was too weak.
However, Ye Ping nonetheless suppressed his realm.
He hadn’t completely figured it out yet, so he didn’t want to break through the realm for now.
Hence, the terrifying Qi and blood were hidden in Ye Ping’s Blood and Qi Furnace. He would wait until he determined his future path to absorb the power.
He opened his eyes.
Ye Ping exhaled.
At this moment, he had a very different feeling.
His strength increased rapidly by more than a hundred times, and that was not the most perfect state, because the realm was suppressed to the early stage of Foundation Establishment. If it was not suppressed, he would directly break through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
However, in order to perfectly exhibit the power of the Qi and Blood True Dragon, one would have to reach the Golden Core realm. Otherwise, it would be impossible to truly bring out the power of the Qi and Blood True Dragon.
However, even so, it was still strong enough.
“Eldest Senior Brother!”
“Master?”
“Senior Brothers?”
“Why are you all here?”
Ye Ping opened his eyes, and after he snapped back to his senses, he couldn’t help but look at the crowd that was near him.
Su Changyu and the others all swallowed their saliva.
Hearing Ye Ping’s voice, Su Changyu was the first to speak up.
“We saw you breaking through so we came over to help you. We were scared that you might be too anxious and slip into obsession, but you didn’t make any mistakes. Since there’s nothing much, I’ll get going first.”
Su Changyu was worthy of being the king of pretending to be impressive. He had clearly been attracted, but he insisted on claiming that he had come to protect Ye Ping.
Ye Ping instantly understood and bowed.
“Thank you so much for your concern. I’ve already succeeded in breaking through. I have to thank Eldest Senior Brother for teaching me.”
Ye Ping answered with a Dao salute.
However, in an instant, everyone looked at Su Changyu.
‘Did you give this cultivation technique?’
In particular, Daoist Tai Hua was astonished.
Su Changyu was stunned.
‘You’re thanking me for teaching you?’
‘Since when did I give you a cultivation technique?’
‘Little Junior Brother, can you not lie?’
“Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Brother, I want to learn this too.”
Chen Lingrou suddenly spoke up. She pointed at Ye Ping and then turned to look at Su Changyu.
Su Changyu was speechless.
‘You want to learn? I want to learn it too.’
‘But I didn’t teach him this cultivation technique
’
He inhaled sharply.
In an instant, Su Changyu froze in shock.
