Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 508 Gift, Heavenly Tyrant Body

"Heavenly Tyrant Body...huh?!"

As a time traveler, Lin Yuan's pupils shrank slightly when he saw this name that seemed to have a sense of déjà vu, and an inexplicable feeling of anticipation surged in his heart.

At the side, Shi Yi's voice slowly sounded: "This fighting skill was carefully selected according to the requirements mentioned in Brother Lin's jade slip! Brother Lin's requirements are really harsh. Even with our clan's collection of thousands of years, only this one can perfectly meet the requirements..."

"Among my peers, perhaps only someone as wealthy and well-informed as Brother Lin can afford to practice this fighting skill and master it!"

At this point, his hearty voice couldn't help but be filled with a bit of emotion and envy.

Completely different from ordinary fighting skills, the body-refining fighting skills not only have strict requirements on body-refining talent, but are also veritable "gold-eating beasts". Almost every step forward consumes a huge amount of resources.

Although the ancient clan has a rich financial foundation, the resources allocated to the younger generation have never been unlimited.

Even a genius with high-quality bloodline needs to rely on his own performance to win.

After all, the culture of getting something for nothing is a deadly poison to any force that requires long-term inheritance and management.

However, even if he obtained the ordinary rewards within the Stone Clan, it was still just a drop in the bucket and was not enough compared to the huge expenditure required to practice high-level body-refining fighting skills.

Because of this, even among the Stone Clan, which is famous for its powerful bodies, most members still practice ordinary fighting skills.

When practicing ordinary fighting skills, what is consumed is nothing more than one's own fighting spirit. No matter how great the consumption is, one only needs to practice the skills slightly to absorb and refine the "free" energy between heaven and earth, so that one can recover quickly.

In other words, as long as you have a certain talent and practice diligently, you will not have to worry about not being able to master it, and there is no additional resource cost.

Physical training and fighting skills are completely different. Every step requires massive resources to pave the way.

Take Shi Yi himself as an example. After he advanced to the Dou Zun realm, in order to cultivate the low-level heavenly body-refining fighting skill - the Nine Tribulations Savage Body, he not only exhausted his wealth accumulated over the past twenty years, but also incurred a heavy debt.

If Chu Lei Dianyi had not achieved excellent results, received rewards from the top leaders of the Shi clan, and got to know Lin Yuan, a wealthy man, he would probably still have to "work" to pay off his debts.

Even in the original trajectory, Xiao Yan consumed the blood pool energy of the ancient Sky Demon Python in order to cultivate a low-level Heavenly Rank Vajra Glazed Body - a ferocious beast comparable to the peak of the fifth-turn Dou Zun, which had spent hundreds of years accumulating blood pool energy.

This is how you spend “money” when practicing high-level physical training and fighting skills.

Because of this, although most people know that their combat power will surge after body refining, there are still very few people who actually practice body refining and fighting skills.

With so many resources, investing them in improving one's cultivation is obviously a more cost-effective option.

As for the group of alchemists, although they are relatively wealthy among their peers, the vast majority of them have neither the talent nor the will to do body refining. Some even regard body refiners as "barbarians with strong limbs and simple minds", so naturally very few people attempt to do body refining.

Shi Yi's gaze drooped slightly and fell on the purple jade scroll in Lin Yuan's hand. The corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously, and then he shook his head imperceptibly.

The higher the level of the physical training fighting skill, the more resources it consumes.

Although the Heavenly Tyrant Body, this heavenly-level fighting skill, is extremely powerful, it is definitely not something that Shi Yi can practice.

Not to mention that in order to cultivate it to the great success realm and unleash its strongest power, it requires some rare and even extinct ancient materials. Just to cultivate this method to the small success realm is enough to empty the fortune of an ordinary Douluo.

It is the terrifying difficulty of practicing and the huge consumption of resources that have caused this extremely powerful fighting skill to be confined to the Stone Clan’s treasury, and no one has been interested in it for thousands of years.

Lin Yuan naturally had no idea what Shi Yi was thinking. Instead, he hit his forehead as if he suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, I have a gift for you!"

As he spoke, his mind moved, and a powerful soul power slowly flowed out from between his eyebrows, instantly blocking the surrounding space, completely isolating and sealing off the inside and outside.

Then, he flicked his fingers and a pill flew out of the ring, hovering steadily in front of him.

This pill is about two inches in size, with a pure milky white color all over. It is filled with an extremely rich pill mist, and waves of energy that are stronger than the Zunyuan Jixin Pill spread out from the pill as the center.

Under Shi Yi's scorching gaze, Lin Yuan formed several mysterious seals. In an instant, vast spiritual energy emerged from the void and gathered towards the milky white pill.

"Spirit Gathering Technique: Transformation!"

With a light shout, Lin Yuan snapped his fingers again, and a drop of scarlet blood flew out from his fingertips and landed accurately on the milky white pill.

The moment the blood came into contact with the pill, the vast pill mist lingering around the pill suddenly trembled, and then violently rolled up, as if awakened by some force, and along with the vast spiritual energy, it was injected into the milky white pill in the center.

The moment the spiritual energy and elixir mist were all injected into the elixir, a blazing light was instantly released, like a rising sun, which made Shi Yi subconsciously cover his eyes.

When the dazzling light gradually dissipated, Shi Yi opened his eyes again, only to find that the pill had disappeared.

Instead, there was a snow-white little rabbit, floating quietly in the air, with a pair of ruby-like eyes looking around curiously. An extremely strong elixir fragrance wafted from its body, which made people feel refreshed.

Shi Yi swallowed dryly, stared at Lin Yuan blankly, and murmured: "Brother Lin, what is this?"

"Haha, as you can see, it's a Dan beast, a Dan beast transformed from an eighth-grade, eight-colored Shengyuan Dan... This little fellow is my gift to you!"

Lin Yuan smiled softly, waved his sleeves, and the snow-white rabbit slowly flew towards Shi Yi.

"Shengyuan Pill, a divine pill that can greatly increase the speed of cultivation?"

Shi Yi's eyes suddenly became hot, and he quickly stretched out his hands and carefully caught the flying snow-white Dan beast.

The moment he got the Snow White Pill Beast, the pure energy and rich fragrance made his Dou Qi cultivation, which had hit a bottleneck, seem to loosen up at that moment.

Feeling this, Shi Yi's mouth corners couldn't help but curl up slightly at this moment.

Shengyuan Pill, an eighth-grade, eight-color pill, is a well-known pill for improving cultivation. Although it cannot directly improve cultivation, the blood of the beast that makes it can greatly increase the cultivation speed of a Dou Zun.

This kind of elixir is exactly the highest-level elixir recipe of the Qingyuan Dan series that Lin Yuan admires very much.

The fifth-grade high-level elixir Qingyuandan is used for Douwang level practice; the sixth-grade high-level elixir Xuanyuandan is used for Douhuang level practice; the seventh-grade high-level elixir Lingyuandan is used for Douzong level practice; the eighth-grade eight-color elixir Shengyuandan is used for Douzun level practice.

As a general-purpose cultivation elixir, this series is highly respected among alchemists, and is only slightly inferior to the Douling Pill, Huangji Pill, Zongyuan Pill, and Yizun Pill series. Over the past few years, Lin Yuan has also refined a lot of elixirs of this series for himself and those around him.

For Shi Yi, this Shengyuan Pill is like timely help.

With this eighth-grade, eight-colored Dan beast, his cultivation speed will be greatly improved. He has absolute confidence that he can achieve the requirement of cultivating to the peak of Dou Zun in five years.

"Brother Lin, such a generous gift...if it can be of use to me in the future, I will not refuse it!"

Holding the snow-white Dan beast, Shi Yi slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Yuan with burning eyes, his voice trembling with excitement.

Lin Yuan just waved his hand casually and chuckled, "Brother Shi, you are too polite. We are friends, so a small gift is nothing to worry about. I hope this pill beast can help you and make further progress on your path of cultivation."

After a pause, he added, "By the way, when you go back, please ask for me if I can get a spot in the Heavenly Tomb. I'll have to trouble you to make a few more trips for follow-up communication matters..."

Lin Yuan did not plan to go to the Stone Realm in person for several years, so he naturally needed a Stone Clan agent.

After all, whether it is to obtain a place in the Heavenly Tomb, or to grasp the movements of the Stone Clan, or to exchange for the Stone Clan's medicinal materials and resources, one needs a handle in the Stone Clan.

Shi Yi already had a friendship with him, his personality was quite suitable, and he also had a considerable foundation in the Shi clan. Naturally, he was Lin Yuan's first choice.

It is only natural to give him more pills to make friends with him.

After hearing Lin Yuan's words, Shi Yi nodded heavily, picked up the wine glass on the table, and said to Lin Yuan solemnly: "Brother Lin, this glass of wine is for your generosity and our friendship! You can rest assured about the operations within the clan, I will definitely take care of it for you..."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked it with Shi Yi's. "With Brother Shi's words, I feel relieved. I will entrust the affairs of the clan to you!"

As they spoke, the two smiled at each other, raised their heads and drank the wine in their cups.

Afterwards, the two of them sat down again, politely giving way to each other, and while drinking happily, they exchanged the necessary information in detail.

As time went by, the night outside the window grew darker, the bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery glow on the two people in the room. A breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness, dispersing the rather warm atmosphere in the room.

"Brother Lin, it's getting late and I should go back to my clan!" Shi Yi looked at the night scene outside the window, stood up and said goodbye.

"Brother Shi, be careful on your journey. I hope you can cultivate to the peak of Dou Zun as soon as possible." Lin Yuan stood up and patted Shi Yi on the shoulder. "If you have free time in the future, you may come and visit us often."

Shi Yi nodded and said, "Sure! Brother Lin, I'll take my leave now!"

After saying this, he walked quickly to the balcony without any further ado, bowed, said "Brother Lin, wait for my good news", then turned into a stream of light, streaked across the night sky of Shengdan City, and quickly flew towards the Northern Territory!

On the other side, Lin Yuan watched Shi Yi leave. He turned around, and a wave of space rippled around him. His figure mysteriously disappeared in the room...
-
After leaving Jingfeng Pavilion, Lin Yuan went straight back to his residence in the inner domain, ready to study the fighting skills he had just acquired.

This is a high-level heavenly body-refining fighting skill, which is not even found in the inheritance of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint.

In the quiet room, with the scent of sandalwood lingering in the air, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged on the green lotus throne. He flipped his hand lightly, and the purple jade scroll appeared in his palm, slightly tilted. On the side of the scroll, four domineering ancient characters came into view.

"Heavenly Tyrant Body!"

Exhaling lightly, Lin Yuan lifted up the purple jade scroll and placed it against his forehead. Immediately, his mind moved, and the power of his soul rushed out from his forehead and wrapped the scroll.

Instantly, purple light surged from the scroll, and an extremely large stream of information poured into Lin Yuan's mind like a flood.

"Heavenly Tyrant Body, a high-level heavenly fighting skill, was created by the top powerhouse 'Overlord' in ancient times."

"This method can transform the blood and soul power of demon beasts for one's own use, evolve into a Dharma body and merge into one's own body, transforming the mortal body into a dominant body, proving the truth with the flesh body, and suppressing the universe with the Dharma body. When cultivated to perfection, the flesh body can contend with the power of heaven and earth, and every move of one's hands and feet has the power to collapse mountains and split the earth..."

Lin Yuan only felt a roar in his mind, and a huge amount of information hit his soul like a tide. Even with his current soul strength, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

He quickly calmed himself down, closed his eyes, and tried his best to digest this information.

With massive amounts of information pouring in, it didn't take long for Lin Yuan to gain a very deep understanding of this "Cang Tian Ba ​​Ti" high-level fighting skill.

After a long time, Lin Yuan's eyelids moved, and he slowly opened his tightly closed eyes. A strange look flashed across his eyes: "They are both called the Heaven Tyrant Body. This Tyrant Body and that Tyrant Body... are really similar. Is it a coincidence?!"

To put it simply, the effect of cultivating the Cang Tian Ba ​​Ti to perfection is 'Seventy-two Transformations plus an indestructible body', similar to a certain mythological figure in the previous life.

Of course, the number of possible Dharmakaya transformations is certainly not as many as seventy-two.

The creator of this fighting skill, the peak powerful man 'Overlord' in ancient times, only completed nine kinds of Dharma changes and could transform into nine different monsters to fight with humans.

Warcraft is inherently powerful, and its nine transformations are enough to handle almost any battle situation. The 'Overlord' is naturally an absolute powerhouse of the same level.

With such powerful might, it is naturally extremely difficult to cultivate the Sky Tyrant Body.

After all, there must be a reason why such a powerful body-building fighting skill was left untouched by the Stone Clan for thousands of years!
Not to mention the huge amount of medicinal resources consumed in the process of cultivation, just to bring the power of this method to its peak, the core materials needed for cultivation - the essence and soul of top-level magic beasts - are almost impossible to obtain in this era.

As for the 'Overlord' himself, legend has it that he was killed or punished because of these materials.

The reason for this is that the creation of a unique body-refining skill usually requires a large number of experiments. And for a high-level fighting skill like 'Cang Tian Ba ​​Ti' that uses the blood and souls of top-level monsters as materials, it is naturally hard to imagine how much top-level monster blood was stained during the creation process.

However, the 'Overlord' himself was not a member of the Stone Clan, but a powerful member of a sect, so he naturally could not be protected by the Imperial Clan.

Under the joint protection of the Wudi Clan, even though he was already a nine-star Douluo, he was ultimately unable to escape the fate of defeat due to the joint revenge and siege by the various demon beast clans.

However, the 'Heavenly Tyrant Body' created by the Overlord was preserved by the Stone Clan, which was at its peak at that time.

Time flies, the ancient times have long passed, and the many pure-blooded magical beasts that were active at that time have long disappeared in the long river of history. Now only the Taixu Ancient Dragon clan remains.

This has greatly reduced the effectiveness and upper limit of the top-level body-building fighting skill, Cang Tian Ba ​​Ti.

Of course, it is possible to cultivate a Dominant Body using the essence and souls of hybrid Magical Beasts such as the Nine Nether Earth Python and the Sky Demon Phoenix as materials, but compared with the Dominant Body cultivated with the essence and souls of top Magical Beasts such as the Sky Phoenix and the Sky Snake, its power is naturally far inferior.

Recalling the huge amount of information in his mind, Lin Yuan's eyes flashed with a strange color: "Why does this 'Heaven Tyrant Body' feel like it was specially prepared for me?!"
