Volume One, Chapter Three: Bestowing the Incomplete Golden Elixir Technique, Attaining Supreme Immortal Art; Awakening the Chaotic Sword Body

[Page 1/3]
【Jian Qingyu, possessing the Sacred Body—Dragon Spirit Sword Body (Deprived), Hidden Immortal Body—Innate Sword Embryo (Awakening), Constitution Tiers—Mystic Body, Spirit Body, King Body, Emperor Body, Sacred Body, Immortal Body.】

"Is this what a Chosen One looks like? A Sacred Body and an Immortal Body in the same person?"

Tang Xi was filled with nothing but pure shock.

In Blue Star, once humans turn eighteen and pass through the Bronze Gate, those blessed by heaven autonomously awaken various constitutions. Once a constitution is awakened, their cultivation speed increases significantly. Even the lowest tier, the Mystic Body, is enough to secure a special admission spot at a decent university. Awakening an Emperor Body is like a sparrow turning into a phoenix; they become the prime candidates for the best Immortal Dao universities and the future powerhouses of the Immortal path.

In the thousand years since the resurgence of Immortal Qi on Blue Star, no cultivator had ever appeared with both a Sacred Body and an Immortal Body.

"Wait, the system panel mentions I have a 'Fragmented Golden Core Method'? How did I not know I had such a thing?"

Following the system's prompt, Tang Xi grasped the crescent moon pendant hanging around his neck. It was a simple ceramic piece he had found in a mass grave on the night he first arrived in this world. He had kept it simply because he liked how it looked. He never expected it to contain a Golden Core Method. Even a fragmented one was incredibly precious—it was a cultivation path leading directly to the Golden Core realm. In the Tenth King City, if a Golden Core cultivator were to stomp their foot, the entire city would tremble.

"System, bestow the Fragmented Golden Core Method upon Jian Qingyu."

As he spoke, the crescent pendant revealed its true interior. A golden bead vanished from Tang Xi's hand.

...

Jian Qingyu's entire body erupted with golden light. The injuries caused by the deprivation of her Sacred Body healed rapidly. A formidable sword intent surged from within her; she seemed born for the blade, a natural monarch of the Sword Dao.

The sword intent shot into the sky, and an immortal sword, as if returning from the long river of time, spanned across the entire Heavenly Sword Province. Every sword-user in the province felt their blade bow in submission.

The powerhouses of the Eternal Sword Palace were overjoyed.

"First a Sacred Body, and now an Immortal Body! Heaven truly favors our Eternal Sword Palace."

Tang Xi, watching from afar, realized the danger. Such a powerful phenomenon would inevitably attract the prying eyes of the Eternal Sword Palace.

"Ding! Would you like to conceal the phenomenon for your girlfriend?"

"Quick, do it!"

The phenomenon vanished, and the aura of the sword intent was wiped clean. Having lost their target, the powerhouses of the Eternal Sword Palace had no choice but to turn back. In any case, inside their territory, a genius could not escape.

A rush of memory flooded Jian Qingyu's mind.

"Fragmented Golden Core Method—Thunder Core Method: Can be cultivated to the Small Golden Core level and grants mastery over the lightning element."

A technique that would take an ordinary person a long time to grasp, Jian Qingyu learned the moment she glanced at it. Massive amounts of heaven and earth spiritual energy poured into her body, pushing her from Qi Refinement Level 1 to 2, 3, and all the way to Level 6.

Jian Qingyu forcibly suppressed the urge to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage. She compressed her power, dropping from Level 6 back to Level 3, though her actual strength remained no less than a Level 6 cultivator. She stood up, feeling as if she sensed something in the void, and whispered toward the sky, "Thank you."

...

"Ding! Host has gifted girlfriend Jian Qingyu a low-grade Qi Refinement Pill. Triggered beginner reward: 10,000x multiplier. Two options: 10,000 Qi Refinement Pills or one Nine-Aperture Golden Core."

"Ding! Host has gifted girlfriend Jian Qingyu the Fragmented Golden Core Method—Thunder Core Method. Triggered supreme reward: Obtained Great Dao Immortal Method—Desolate Thunder Scripture."

"Ding! Host's girlfriend has awakened the Immortal Body—Innate Sword Embryo. Triggered additional 10,000x multiplier: Obtained Supreme Immortal Body—Chaos Sword Body."

Tang Xi was overcome with immense joy. His life as a bottom-feeder was about to change.

"Xu Wuhen, wash your neck clean and wait for me."

"System, I choose the Nine-Aperture Golden Core."

"Ding! Nine-Aperture Golden Core issued. The Nine-Aperture Golden Core is a body-tempering immortal medicine that brings the host's physical potential to perfection, leaving the body flawless."

"Ding! The Desolate Thunder Scripture is a direct path to the Immortal Dao."

"Ding! The Chaos Sword Body ranks at the top of the constitution charts; a natural monarch of the Sword Dao."

Tang Xi adjusted his mindset, taking several deep breaths to calm himself. He swallowed the Nine-Aperture Golden Core in one gulp, feeling a miraculous sensation as if his very life were undergoing a transformation.

It took a full two hours for the changes to settle. His blood now roared like a dragon, his marrow flowed like magma, and every punch carried the thunderous sound of tigers and leopards. His body-tempering had reached its peak. He had a premonition that if he were to practice martial arts, he would achieve extraordinary results there as well.

"System, awaken the Chaos Sword Body."

"Ding! Chaos Sword Body awakened for the host. Automatically concealing the phenomenon."

In an instant, pale golden sword intent surged across Tang Xi's skin. His blood vessels, meridians, and acupoints were all replaced by sword intent.

The idea of killing someone with a mere glance was no longer just a figure of speech. Several hours passed, and the Chaos Sword Body was successfully awakened.

The changes did not end there. A stream of profound, mysterious, and ancient text flooded his mind. Gray and blue characters swirled around his body.

The Desolate Thunder Scripture—Qi Refinement Chapter: Can be cultivated to the 9th level. Nine-nines return to ten, achieving the perfection of Qi Refinement.

The Induction Space was rich with immortal energy. Tang Xi began circulating the Qi Refinement Chapter. A massive influx of immortal energy poured into him. He expected his strength to skyrocket, but his body felt like a bottomless pit, impossible to fill.

[Page 3/3]

Cultivators in the Induction Space noticed a decrease in the immortal energy, though they had no idea why. After three full hours, a trace of lightning power flickered on Tang Xi's skin, and he finished his cultivation.

"Qi Refinement Level 3. Is this what it feels like to be a cultivator? It feels truly wonderful; the shackles of mortality have faded away."

"But why does my Qi Refinement feel different from others? I consume far too much immortal energy. If it were anyone else, they would have already reached Level 6 or even Level 9."

"Ding! The host has a profound foundation, thus requiring more energy to break through. However, the benefits are obvious: the host is invincible among peers. As for how many levels you can jump to fight, that depends on your combat experience and talent."

"Ding! Suggest host accelerate the cultivation of girlfriend Jian Qingyu. Host can obtain Immortal Dao Points by slaying creatures. These points are widely used for interacting with Jian Qingyu, purchasing resources, etc."

"Ding! Resources given to a bound girlfriend can be returned to the host at a 10x, 100x, 1,000x, or 10,000x multiplier. This does not include cultivation level. The system reserves the right of final interpretation."

...

In a distant, unknown corner of the starry sky, a youth carrying a sword let out a loud laugh.

"An unpredictable figure has appeared among the human race. Our race is weak; I hope this child can turn the tide."

"The old monsters of the myriad races have long coveted the human race's fortune! We need fresh pillars of support. A guardian who can suppress the myriad races must emerge."

...

Tang Xi walked out of the pillar space and headed out of the Induction Space. As he passed others, regardless of gender, everyone couldn't help but take a few extra looks at him.

He was already incredibly handsome, and after breaking through to Level 3 and awakening the Chaos Sword Body, he carried a sharp, domineering aura that naturally drew eyes.

Upon exiting the Induction Space, he found things as he had expected: some shameless people were gathered together, hoping to harvest the single point awarded to newcomers. Seeing Tang Xi, they only watched from afar and did not approach.

A skinny youth said to the burly man beside him, "Boss, that kid is so young. He looks like a newcomer who just entered. We could definitely take him."

The burly man snorted coldly.

"If you want to die, don't drag me with you. I felt a massive threat from him, even at my 4th level of Qi Refinement. People like that are obviously scions of great families with powerful immortal techniques. Offending them would be like looking for trouble in a latrine."

The skinny man's eyes flashed with fear. "Thanks for the warning, Boss. I almost walked through the gates of death. But damn, it's so unfair. These great family scions get such good resources."

"Robbery is a science, too. You still have a lot to learn. Your birth already sets the watershed; if your fate is bad, who can you blame!"
