Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 257 Perfected Defilement Severance, Molding Special Physique, Defilement Severance Triple Level

After gaining some understanding, Di Xiao vaguely felt that the Xingyi Eighteen Forms he had created had a broader future.

Of course, no matter what the future holds, the core of the Xingyi Eighteen Forms remains body tempering.

Di Xiao didn't think much of it. After comprehending the Bull Demon Fist, he also started practicing. He mastered each move in a short time.

Seeing Di Xiao's reaction, Xue Ping became interested: "Good lad, you've actually mastered my Mighty Bull Demon Fist. Then let's try the Tiger Demon Bone Tempering Fist and the White Crane Pine Fist..."

Upon hearing this, Di Xiao calmly watched Xue Ping demonstrate the technique. Then, with his extraordinary comprehension surging, he instantly learned it. Furthermore, with his extraordinary wisdom, he also improved the fist technique, integrating it into his own Xingyi Eighteen Forms.

After completing these steps, Di Xiao also unleashed two fist techniques, perfectly replicating them. Moreover, he mastered both techniques to perfection in a very short time.

Seeing that Di Xiao had once again perfected his fist technique, Xue Ping stopped and burst into laughter: "Haha... Good, good! I've heard people say before that among our human race, there are some who don't seem to have very high aptitude, but whose comprehension is extremely terrifying. These people with terrifying comprehension learn everything very quickly. To some extent, they can even reverse their aptitude by relying on their comprehension."

"I never expected to encounter such a terrifyingly quick learner today. Alright, alright..."

Xue Ping was incredibly excited, looking at Di Xiao before him as if he were some priceless treasure: "Good lad, your name is Di Xiao, right? With your comprehension, cultivating some kind of Body Tempering Fist is a waste of your talent. Come, come with me to see this Defilement Severing Technique. This is a cultivation method that cleanses the impurities in our human bodies, allowing us to draw upon spiritual energy. It's even rumored that, when cultivated to its peak, this method can shape a certain kind of physique."

When Di Xiao was preparing to join the Tang army, he had already planned how to reveal his talent in order to attract more investment.

After all, extraordinary wisdom and comprehension are not enough for cultivation. Extraordinary comprehension allows you to quickly master various classic texts, while extraordinary wisdom allows you to create countless cultivation methods and supernatural powers.

However, none of these can directly improve one's cultivation level. To improve one's cultivation level, one also needs sufficient resources.

Even Di Xiao's original form, Di Qing, initially relied on the endless resources of Buzhou Land to grow up quickly.

In the Journey to the West world before her, Di Xue was merely an ordinary mortal with no special background. Resources were naturally difficult to obtain. Although she could absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth to grow stronger after embarking on the path of cultivation, how long would it take to cultivate using such methods?

Moreover, different blessed lands have different concentrations of spiritual energy.

Therefore, Di Xiao prepared to showcase his talent to gain sufficient resources. Now, Di Xiao displayed a degree of comprehension, quickly mastering the fist technique. Just as Di Xue had predicted, this attracted the attention of the general training the new recruits.

Xue Ping, a human cultivator of unknown cultivation level, looked at Di Xiao with intense desire. He immediately led Di Xiao to the stone tablet in the recruit camp and slowly said, "Di Xiao, right? Come and study this Defilement-Slaying Technique."

"The Defilement Severing Technique?" Di Xiao's eyes, filled with wisdom and insight, gazed at the cultivation method before him, a multitude of thoughts arising in his mind. With a sense of doubt, he inquired, "Could you tell me what is so special about this Defilement Severing Technique?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Ping grinned and patiently explained to Di Xiao, "This 'Slaying Defilement Technique' is the very foundation of our Great Tang Dynasty. Back then, the reason our Great Tang was able to overthrow the Sui Dynasty was not only because the Sui Dynasty itself was involved with the demonic path, which brought about many disasters, but also because an unparalleled figure from our Great Tang imperial family, the Li family, created the 'Slaying Defilement Technique.'"

"Don't be fooled by the fact that this 'Defilement Removal Technique' seems ordinary just because it's so casually passed down. In reality, this method is incredibly profound. With practice, it can gradually sever the complex bloodlines within our human race, purifying our bloodline. Secondly, it removes the impurities from our bodies, allowing us to better draw spiritual energy into our bodies."

"Of course, the most crucial thing is that if the Defilement Removal Technique is cultivated to its peak, it can completely remove all the complex and impure elements from the human body, leaving only the purest and most useful bloodline for us humans. Then, with the nourishment of spiritual energy, it can evolve from an ordinary mortal body into various special physiques. These physiques can turn us humans into cultivation geniuses, and we will become powerful in a certain aspect."

Upon hearing this, Di Xiao's eyes flickered as he looked at the Defilement-Slaying Technique before him. He never expected that such a casually circulated cultivation method among the Tang army would possess such profound mysteries.

Di Xiao looked on, puzzled: "Since this 'Defilement-Slaying Technique' is so miraculous, why wasn't it spread to all the people of the Tang Dynasty? Why is it only circulating among the Tang army?"

"The Dharma should not be passed on lightly. Even the simplest cultivation method cannot be spread recklessly. This is an unspoken rule of the cultivation path. The fact that our Great Tang can require all those who join the army to cultivate the Defilement-Slaying Technique already shows great courage."

"Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Defilement Severing Technique is very difficult to cultivate to perfection. After all, since our human race was created by the goddess Nuwa, we have gone through countless tribulations and multiplied to this day. We don't know how much bloodline and how much filth are mixed in with our bodies."

"You must understand that the earliest humans were born with the ability to draw spiritual energy into their bodies and gain powerful cultivation. But now, many humans waste their entire lives and still can't draw even a trace of spiritual energy."

"Therefore, it is extremely difficult to cultivate the Defilement Severing Technique to perfection. From the founding of the Tang Dynasty to the present day, those who have been able to cultivate this technique to perfection are absolutely one in a hundred million. And those who have succeeded have all become the pride of the human race."

"Therefore, many humans cultivate the Defilement Severing Technique. After reaching a minor level of mastery and being able to draw spiritual energy into their bodies, they switch to cultivating other methods."

"However, you are different. Your comprehension is so terrifying that you may have a chance to cultivate the Defilement Severing Technique to perfection."

"Alright, that's all I have to say about the Defilement Severing Technique. As for how to cultivate it, you can figure it out for yourself."

The fact that Xue Ping, the general in charge of the army, could speak so calmly with Di Xiao was entirely due to Di Xiao's exceptional comprehension. Without the Five Elements theory, Xue Ping wouldn't have cared about any of this.

Di Xiao naturally knew all this, and after a moment of mental stillness, he looked at the stone tablet in front of him and began to calmly comprehend it.

Immediately, his extraordinary comprehension and wisdom came into play, allowing him to comprehend the Defilement-Slaying Technique before him.

[Your extraordinary comprehension allows you to quickly grasp the essence of the Defilement-Slaying Technique. You are experiencing its profound mysteries. The Defilement-Slaying Technique is divided into three levels. The first level focuses on blood and qi, cleansing your bone marrow and completing repeated blood exchanges to temper your bloodline. Completing one hundred and eight blood exchanges signifies the mastery of the first level. Mastering the first level also means reaching a minor level of proficiency in the Defilement-Slaying Technique.]
