Chapter 838 Bai Lian
The former head of Tianwu Pavilion, Bai Lian, stood in Wuzong's martial arts training ground, his eyes revealing a complicated look.

As the top figure of the Wu Clan, Master Bai Lian has been extremely resistant since he joined the Wu Sect.

His strength is also outstanding among the gods of creation. Although his status is not as high as those princes, his strength should not be underestimated.

It was for this reason that, at the request of Dayu Tianjun, Bai Lian was taught the "Eight-Nine Profound Art" as an exception.

However, due to his resistance to martial arts, Bai Lian has never tried it.

It was not until he saw that Xuan Li and the others had switched to martial arts and the bottleneck in their body tempering seemed to have loosened that he began to feel tempted.

However, over the years, Master Bai Lian has also been feeling depressed.
The quiet room became a place for him to escape from the chaos of the outside world and concentrate on practicing.

As the former Witch Clan's number one talent in body tempering, everything went smoothly for Master Bai Lian when he was practicing the first volume of "The Five Elements".

Bai Lianzhang closed his eyes tightly, and calmly felt the flow of the five elements in his body.

He could feel the power flowing slowly through his meridians like a gurgling stream, sometimes rushing, sometimes slowing down, as if it had life.

This power surged in his body, bringing him an unprecedented wonderful feeling.

The body-tempering method he had not used for tens of thousands of years actually made some progress at this moment.

This sudden change made Bai Lian feel surprised.

This volume of "Five Elements" is an introductory practice, and its difficulty is so great that Bai Lian has personally experienced it.

However, the gains and surprises it brought him today were beyond his expectations.

Just the first level of the technique has loosened up his body-tempering method, which is undoubtedly a huge breakthrough.

Bai Lian was immersed in the pleasure of practicing martial arts and couldn't extricate himself.

He forgot the passage of time and devoted himself to the practice of martial arts.

After completing the practice of the Five Elements, Bai Lian's martial arts strength naturally entered the realm of Martial Saint.

However, Bai Lian was not satisfied with this.

He knew that the path of cultivation was long and arduous, and only by moving forward continuously could he reach higher peaks.

So, he resolutely began to practice the "Yin Yang Chapter".

"Yin Yang" is an important chapter in martial arts practice, and its difficulty far exceeds that of the Five Elements.

As time went by, Bai Lian's acupoints gradually became fuller under the nourishment of the five elements.

These acupoints were soon filled with magnetic force and qi and blood.

Bai Lian's martial arts skills have also been significantly improved with this constant nourishment.

Not only that, Bai Lian also has a unique advantage, his original form is the God of Creation.

This enabled him to achieve twice the result with half the effort in martial arts training, and quickly comprehend many mysteries that were difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Soon, Bai Lian successfully reached the peak of Martial Saint.
"This martial art is truly miraculous. I never thought that this acupoint could contain such a powerful force."

After all, his original intention in establishing the Tianwu Pavilion was to break the bottleneck of the body tempering method and explore the higher realm of martial arts.

Now, he is one step closer to this goal. How can he not feel happy?

In the past, he was known as the number one body-tempering genius in the Wu clan, and countless hopes were placed on him.

For millions of years, he had been trying and constantly disappointed.

Those experiences of failure were like heavy shackles that bound his heart.

However, what he did not expect was that the Body Tempering Method could now enable the Body Tempering cultivator to break through fate in a fundamentally different way like martial arts.

So Bai Lian practiced martial arts, and from the initial resistance, he became proactive.

He began to devote himself wholeheartedly to the practice of martial arts, wanting to fulfill his unfulfilled dream of tempering his body.

Bai Lian originally believed with full confidence that, relying on his background as the God of Creation, his martial arts path would be smooth sailing.
However, things went against his wishes. An unexpected problem suddenly arose. Abnormalities appeared in the acupoints in his body!

As a descendant of Qiang Liang, the ancestor of thunder, Bai Lian was born with a special physique, which is the "body of heavenly thunder".

The essence of this constitution is pure yang, which is significantly different from the constitution of ordinary people.

Because of this, when Bai Lian practiced "The Yin and Yang Chapter", the balance of yin and yang in his body was completely broken.

Under normal circumstances, this imbalance might be able to be forcibly corrected through his own cultivation of the Taoism of the God of Creation.

But the problem is that what he practiced was not an ordinary technique.

Instead, it was a martial arts version of "Eight-Nine Profound Art" that Xie Que derived from some body-tempering methods.

Although this version of "Bajiu Xuan Gong" is different from the authentic "Bajiu Xuan Gong",
It can even be said that they are two completely different skills, but they both have unique characteristics and power.

But everything Xie Que did was based on a very high intention.
This makes it very difficult to correct the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Art", whether it is Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, or anything else.

No matter if he is a mortal, a god, or a celestial monarch,
There is no shortcut at all when they practice the "Eight-Nine Profound Art".

It's just that with the foundation of the body tempering technique, one can practice faster.

When the yin and yang in the body are out of balance, the consequences are very serious.
The magnetic force in Bai Lianzhang's body was instantly affected by his Heavenly Thunder Body.

There were constant explosions and roars within its 360 acupoints.

Hall Master Bai Lian also reacted promptly, using his magical power to trace back the state of his own body before he could suppress it.

Otherwise, if it were placed on a witch who did not have such cultivation, he would probably burn himself and turn into ashes.

Hall Master Bai Lian was a little skeptical, so he tried it a few more times and found the same result every time.

"Why would this Ancestral Witch bloodline have problems at this time?"

Hall Master Bai Lian was secretly anxious, and his face revealed a hint of panic.

The blood of the ancestor witch Qiangliang remained in his body. He thought that with the foundation of half a step of creation, he could smoothly integrate martial arts, but he did not expect to encounter difficulties at this step.

"With my current strength, integrating martial arts should be a piece of cake. Why is it so difficult?"

Bai Lian, the head of the hall, muttered to himself, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
He was late in practicing martial arts, and wanted to catch up with his fellow tribesmen by galloping all the way.
However, he didn't expect that every time he practiced the skills, the thunder power in his body would always repel the Yin-Yang and Five Elements cycle of martial arts.

After trying many times, Bai Lian still had no idea.
Fortunately, his own cultivation had reached a high level, allowing him to always maintain his peak state, so he did not hurt himself.

Bai Lian was puzzled by this problem for a long time. He kept thinking about the solution in his mind, but he still had no clue.

Finally, he was at his wit's end, and several of his fellow tribesmen also said they had no solution.
He also plucked up the courage and went to ask Xie Que.

Xie Que saw his problem with just a glance.

Bai Lian lowered his head slightly, feeling secretly nervous.

Xie Que stared at the disordered qi and blood around Bai Lian, and said slowly: "Qiang Liang's thunder system is yang, it is pure yang." Bai Lian was slightly shocked, and a hint of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.

Xie Que continued, "When you practiced, you failed to balance yin and yang, so it was difficult to succeed."

Bai Lian gritted his teeth: "What should I do then?"

Xie Que thought that he now had enough ancestor witch bloodlines, so he didn't need to ask these witch tribes to abolish their ancestor witch bloodlines.

On the contrary, they kept it, as it might be of great use in the future when they set up the real "Twelve Heavenly Demons Array".

After thinking about it, Xie Que said, "The Heart Fire Acupoint is also Yang. Although both are Yang, the violent nature of thunder and the gentleness of the heart are different."

Bai Lian listened carefully.

Xie Que paused and continued, "You can try to use the method of 'thunder and fire' to guide the magnetic force in your body into the heart fire acupoint. Using the gentleness of the heart fire to stimulate the magnetic force may have a miraculous effect."

Bai Lian nodded slightly: "Thank you for your guidance, I will definitely try it."

After returning to the quiet room, Bai Lian couldn't wait to practice the exercises according to Xie Que's instructions, and guide the magnetic force in his body into the Heart Fire Acupoint.

At first, the two forces confronted each other fiercely in the body. Bai Lian only felt a sharp pain in his chest and a fishy and sweet taste in his throat.

"This force is too strong. If it cannot be controlled, the consequences will be disastrous."

But he did not give up. He gritted his teeth and kept adjusting the balance of power in his body.

As he continued to adjust, the force of the Yuan magnetic field was gradually absorbed by the Heart Fire Acupoint.

The fusion of the two unexpectedly activated the miraculous effect of "Heavenly Thunder Tempering Acupoints".

This also caused Bai Lian's body to be constantly refined by thunder and fire, and the degree of improvement in his physical strength was much greater than that of his peers at the same level.

"I didn't expect that the miraculous effect of this 'Heavenly Thunder Tempering Acupoints' would be so powerful."

Just when Bai Lian was immersed in the joy of his increased strength, Xuan Li also came to visit.
Xuan Li's blood and energy were flowing like a surging river, and it was obvious that he was about to break through to the sixth level of martial arts, "Heavenly Man".

Bai Lian was slightly shocked, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Xuan Li, I didn't expect you to have such progress."

Bai Lian spoke, with a hint of admiration in his voice.

Because they are of the same bloodline, both are descendants of Qiangliang, the ancestor of thunder.
A few days ago, because Xuan Li was in seclusion, he didn't hear how Xuan Li solved this problem.

Xuan Kai said, with a hint of joy in his eyes: "Uncle, it was also a coincidence for me. I didn't expect to have such a breakthrough."

"But I heard from Sanzi that you came to see me a few days ago?"

Bai Lian also nodded: "There were some problems with cultivation, but they have been solved now."

Xuan Li asked curiously, "Uncle, you were the number one genius in body tempering in my Wu clan. What problem could be difficult for you?"

Bai Lian shrugged helplessly, then recounted everything that had happened to him.

In the course of his narration, he described in detail the difficulties he encountered and the various methods he had tried, but none of them successfully solved the problem.

Finally, Bai Lian turned his gaze to Xuan Li and asked curiously, "How did you solve this problem?"

Xuan Li was silent for a moment, as if recalling his past experiences.

After a while, he said, "Uncle... when I first came to Wuzong, I abolished the bloodline of the ancestor witch."

When Bai Lian heard this, his heart was shaken, as if he suddenly remembered something important.

He couldn't help but blurt out: "Ah?"

Xuan Li's eyes revealed a trace of emotion, and he continued:
"Back then, I, like you now, treasured the blood of the ancestor witch in my body very much. I believed that it was the foundation of the witch clan and the power we are born with."

Xuan Li changed the subject and continued:

"However, when I truly abolished the bloodline of the Ancestral Witch and began to concentrate on practicing martial arts, I discovered that there was actually a much wider world waiting for me to explore."

Bai Lian frowned slightly, and there was a hint of thought in his eyes.

He began to realize that perhaps it was his obsession with the bloodline of the ancestor witch that led to the restrictions on his practice.

He knew very well that although the ancestral witch blood in his body was powerful, it became an obstacle to his practice of martial arts.

Bai Lian also thought about it for a long time, and finally a trace of determination appeared in his heart.

Therefore, he also chose to directly abolish the bloodline of the ancestor witch.
At the moment when the strong blood was expelled from the body, Bai Lian only felt that the magnetic force in his body became ordinary.

But at the same time, he felt that the yin and yang and five elements in his body were instantly balanced, and an unprecedented sense of relaxation arose spontaneously.

Xie Que, who was far away, looked through the space and saw the changes in Bai Lian.

He shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "I don't intend to destroy his bloodline..."

"But it's good this way. Although Bai Lian's pure yang body is gone, he won't have these problems in the future."

Xie Que stretched out a hand and caught the blood of the ancestor witch that Bai Lian had cut off himself.

Half a year later, after severing his own bloodline, Bai Lian's cultivation speed improved by leaps and bounds.

Every day he absorbed spiritual energy in the cave world, practiced martial arts techniques, constantly tempered his body, and accumulated qi and blood in the acupoints.

Finally, he successfully broke through to the early stage of human immortal.

Yu Shan was also delighted when he learned about it.

After all, in his opinion, Hall Master Bai Lian is very likely the first witch to push body tempering to the highest level!
At this moment, he was playing chess with Xie Que.
At this moment, Xie Que was holding the white pieces, and between the chess pieces, the outline of the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array" could be vaguely seen.

Yu Shan plays the black pieces, and his chess formation represents the "Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" of the Wu Clan.

It was in this situation that the two of them continued to deduce the two peerless formations over the years.
Up to now, we have gained a lot.

Yu Shan said: "Master Bai Lian is indeed the top genius of the Wu Clan. His martial arts training with his real body is much faster than my human incarnation."

Xie Que's eyes flashed with approval: "His talent is indeed good."

This was also Xie Que's sincere feeling. After all, Bai Lian had practiced martial arts for a short time, but he was almost catching up with many people.

Yu Shan looked at the chessboard in front of him and sighed: "Senior, I lost again."

Xie Que just smiled and said, "How can I say I lost?"

"In terms of its purpose and difficulty in activating the Great Zhoutian Xingdou Formation, it is superior to the Great Twelve Capitals of the Gods and Demons Formation."

"It's just that the twelve ancestor witches are very powerful, and they just forged the second formation with equal fame."

As Xie Que placed his last piece, the game was decided.

At this moment, Xie Que looked at the chess game and let out a sigh:
"It seems... I also know how to do the seventh level of "Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts"..."
