From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 163 Heavenly Golden Body Technique
After Zhang Yuchun finished speaking, as if he had figured something out, his expression changed and he asked, "Senior brother, could it be that something happened to Sifeng? When Sifeng was in danger before, Yu Qilin went down the mountain to look for him."

Zhu Yan was very curious about the Qilin in the sect. She had never seen it with her own eyes, mainly to avoid suspicion.

She feared that getting close to the Qilin would arouse the sect leader's suspicion.

Although Li Qingqiu was kind to people, Zhu Yan always felt that he was a smiling tiger who could change his attitude in an instant.

"Then let's see if the Prison Qilin has come down the mountain," Li Qingqiu replied calmly, though his heart skipped a beat.

Thinking about it carefully, it's not impossible that Lingtianmen slaughtered the Jiang family, threatened him to deal with the Li family, and then set their sights on Li Sifeng.

However, Li Sifeng possesses the cultivation level of the fifth level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, and with the assistance of a thousand-year-old sword soul, he should not be captured by the Lingtian Sect.

"Should I send someone to check?" Zhang Yuchun asked, still feeling uneasy.

Although Li Sifeng always angered him and never listened to him, he was, after all, the junior brother he had watched grow up.

Li Qingqiu nodded and said, "Try to select true disciples at the fourth level of the Nourishing Essence Realm."

"it is good!"

After Zhang Yuchun finished speaking, he got up and left.

Zhu Yan looked at Li Qingqiu and said, "Sect Leader, there is something else I would like to discuss with you."

"Go ahead."

Li Qingqiu picked up a cup of tea, blew on it to cool it down, and then sipped it slowly.

Zhu Yan organized her thoughts and said, "Sect Leader, you are twenty-seven years old this year. Have you considered getting married and having children to make the sect more stable?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qingqiu glanced at her and retorted, "You should be thirty-two years old already, why don't you consider settling down?"

Zhu Yan's face froze instantly, and she said awkwardly, "That's not my ambition."

"Me too."

“But you are different from me. I am just a woman, insignificant, but you are a man, and the head of a sect. If you have offspring, the sect will be more at ease.”

Zhu Yan practically said, "What if something happens to you?"

Li Qingqiu wasn't angry. He was thinking about whether he should ask his junior brothers and sisters if they had someone they liked.

As for him, he had no desire to get married at all; he was someone who sought immortality.

“One day, as we discover more and more treasure troves, we may even establish branch sects and strongholds. You will need trustworthy people to govern your region, and only your offspring are truly worthy of your trust,” Zhu Yan continued to persuade her.

Li Qingqiu looked at her, a half-smile on his face, and asked, "What? Did the Zhu family send you to act as matchmaker?"

Zhu Yan met his gaze directly and said, "The Zhu family naturally hopes to have a closer relationship with the sect leader. We don't need a principal wife; even a concubine would be fine."

Li Qingqiu wanted to ask, "Is it okay if it's you?"

But he held back. Zhu Yan wasn't someone you could joke about, and joking like that would easily ruin the atmosphere between them.

Of course, he was also afraid that Zhu Yan would misunderstand.

Li Qingqiu said seriously, "Now that you know we are cultivating immortality, you should detach your attention from worldly matters. What worldly matters do, we don't necessarily have to do."

Zhu Yan was touched after hearing this.

Even though she was a renowned scholar, her family would still criticize her for not getting married in this world. She came to Qingxiao Mountain to escape these troubles. As the Qingxiao Sect grew stronger, these troubles did decrease. Even if she didn't get married, no one in her clan would dare to look down on her.

The more she thought about it, the more she realized how worldly she had been. She felt a deep respect for Li Qingqiu and exclaimed, "Sect Leader, no wonder the immortals chose you. You are indeed the most suitable person for cultivating immortality, able to abandon worldly desires and not be swayed by worldly affairs."

Abandon?

Where was it abandoned?
I just don't want to for now!
Li Qingqiu inwardly refuted this, but smiled without saying a word, pretending to be unfathomable and disillusioned with the world.

After receiving the answer, Zhu Yan did not linger and got up to take her leave.

After drinking tea for a while, Li Qingqiu returned to his cave. He did not start cultivating immediately, but instead activated the inheritance rewards.

He has not yet used the inheritance rewards triggered by his disciple establishing the port.

[Claim your inheritance reward]

[Initiating the Inheritance of the Daoist Tradition]

You have obtained the Body Tempering Technique - Heavenly Golden Body Technique.

Whether or not to accept the inheritance

Huh?
This body tempering technique is quite interesting!
Li Qingqiu immediately chose to inherit the legacy, and a flood of memories rushed into his mind.

……

As April arrives, the temperature between heaven and earth begins to rise slowly.

The Prison Qilin eventually descended the mountain.

Li Qingqiu also sent Xiao Ba to find Li Sifeng. In less than two days, Xiao Ba sent back a message saying that Li Sifeng was temporarily safe and sound and was staying in the military camp with ten true disciples arranged by Zhang Yuchun.

These true disciples are all at the fourth level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm. Even if the Ten Divine Servants attack, they should be able to defeat them if they join forces.

On this day, early in the morning, Li Qingqiu led Yuan Li, Zhao Zhen, Ji Ya, and Xiao Wudi to a deserted mountain forest.

He stopped and turned to look at the four of them. He said seriously, "Today I will pass on a skill to you. This is a unique skill that has not yet entered the Scripture Pavilion. You must practice it diligently and set aside time to practice it every day. This skill will give you the ability to sweep through opponents of the same realm."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of Yuan Li and the other three lit up.

Zhao Zhen asked excitedly, "Really? Can I improve it?"

Li Qingqiu said irritably, "Learn it first before you talk."

Zhao Zhen could only modify martial arts into methods of cultivating immortality; he couldn't improve the cultivation techniques and spells for the time being. Ji Ya and Xiao Wudi were both very excited. There were too many geniuses in the sect, and they weren't confident they could sweep through those of the same realm. Both of them were warlike and frequent visitors to the martial arts arena. Although they had never lost to someone of the same realm, they could feel the pressure from the other disciples.

Yuan Li's expression was somewhat unnatural. He was only at the second level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, and he felt that practicing magic might hinder his cultivation.

However, this was his master's arrangement, and he dared not disobey.

Subsequently, Li Qingqiu taught them the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique.

The Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique has five levels in total.

Once you reach the first level, your blood and qi will boil, and you will be able to tear apart tigers and leopards.

Once you reach the second level, your muscles and bones will be as strong as iron, and your body will become a weapon.

Upon reaching the third level, one condenses inner energy, and the physical strength becomes like that of a dragon.

Upon reaching the fourth level, one becomes indestructible and can block spells and magical artifacts.

Upon reaching the fifth level, one returns to simplicity and appears no different from an ordinary person, but in reality possesses terrifying strength, and can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for one's own use.

This body-tempering technique is too domineering, so Li Qingqiu also plans to learn it.

Perhaps it was the effect of the [Hundred Refinements Demon Body] that made his cultivation of this technique quite smooth. However, body tempering techniques cannot be mastered overnight; they rely on accumulation over time and the investment of resources. The longer one cultivates, the stronger one becomes, and there is currently no upper limit to their power.

After Li Qingqiu finished teaching the mental techniques of the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique, the four of them became excited. Their comprehension was not simple, and they could feel the uniqueness of the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique.

Among them, Yuan Li has the highest comprehension, even the highest in the entire sect. Even Shen Yue and Chu Jing cannot compare to him, because his comprehension is extraordinary.

Over the years, Li Qingqiu has yet to see a second person whose aptitude and comprehension are truly extraordinary.

Yuan Li savored the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique, feeling a unique charm. In the depths of his being, he felt that this technique was tailor-made for him.

This feeling was wonderful, giving him a long-lost sense of self-confidence.

He felt he could achieve something in the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique.

Xiao Wudi possessed the destiny of a "naturally born body cultivator," and his feelings were similar to Yuan Li's—he was extremely excited and couldn't wait to start practicing immediately.

"You guys practice first."

Li Qingqiu stood up, left after saying these words.

The four looked at each other, nodded, and then began to cultivate the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique.

Although they didn't say it, neither of them wanted to be weaker than the other.

“I’m practicing the Heavenly Golden Body Technique on the same day as the other three. I refuse to believe I’m slower than them.”

Xiao Wudi thought to himself, feeling excited at the thought that he had cultivated the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique faster than the sect leader's three precious disciples.

He had always wanted to become Li Qingqiu's apprentice; he was not satisfied with his current situation.

It wasn't for power or status; he simply wanted to prove that he was no less capable than anyone else.

……

Days passed.

In mid-May, Jiang Zhaoxia and Xu Ning finally returned with fifty true disciples. Their large numbers made them an easy target for the disciples on the mountain.

Over the past two months, news of their victories has been constantly reported to Qingxiao Sect, exciting and inspiring the disciples. Now that they have returned in triumph, the disciples are overjoyed.

The news spread very quickly.

Upon learning of this, Yuan Qi immediately went to Li Qingqiu's cave and informed him of the matter.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingqiu breathed a sigh of relief and then stood up.

Speaking of which, Xu Ning is at the eighth level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, and Jiang Zhaoxia is at the seventh level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm. Both of them are capable of handling things on their own, so why is Li Qingqiu somewhat worried when they work together?

Li Qingqiu sat down in Lingxiao Courtyard, and Yuan Qi, being very sensible, went to the kitchen to make tea.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Zhaoxia and Xu Ning entered the hospital. Behind them was a man in black with disheveled hair, carrying an exaggeratedly large knife on his back, the blade of which was almost wider than his head.

The man in black looked at Li Qingqiu, a look of curiosity on his dirty face.

Li Qingqiu raised an eyebrow slightly.

This person is actually a cultivator!
Fourth level of the Nourishing Essence Realm!
This is even more powerful than Master Jiang.

Jiang Zhaoxia sat down at the long table and said, "Senior brother, let me introduce you first. This person is called Mo Jiuhong. Like us, he is a cultivator. He has been dealing with the Qi family and even wanted to eradicate the Lingtian Sect. However, he met us and we became friends after fighting each other."

Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuhong's expression became quite unnatural.

Is it a case of becoming friends after a fight?

He almost died!
He noticed that Li Qingqiu was looking at him, so he immediately coughed and said, "I am Mo Jiuhong. I am from no sect or school. I accidentally obtained the inheritance of a celestial master. I originally thought that I was the only celestial cultivator on this land. I never expected that a celestial cultivation sect would emerge in the world."

only?

Li Qingqiu thought to himself that it might not be so. There was Master Jiang before, and Mo Jiuhong after. Perhaps there were other people in the world who had obtained the ancient cultivation inheritance. It's just that they all thought they were the only cultivators and stayed away from the secular world.

"Why do you want to deal with the Qi family?" Li Qingqiu asked.

Mo Jiuhong replied, "Because the Qi family is raising demons and calling them ancient gods, which is absurd. If I weren't no match for those demons, I would have destroyed them long ago to prevent them from causing a great disaster."

Li Qingqiu asked with a slightly sarcastic tone, "If you have such a strong sense of justice, why didn't you deal with the emperor and the evil Taoist priest before?"

Mo Jiuhong said helplessly, "I have been in seclusion in the Northern Territory for the past ten years and was unaware of this matter. The reason I came out of seclusion was because that monster caused an earthquake, which alarmed me."
