Immortality began with the Demon Suppression Division

"Dedicate 500 years of lifespan to evolve the Vajra Body".

Luo Chen sat cross-legged on the hill, with Xiao Die keeping watch nearby.

He now has some savings.

With a wave of his hand, he directly invested five hundred years of lifespan.

The truth is, this body-refining technique is inherently a slow and painstaking process, let alone the deduction of subsequent techniques.

[Successfully invested 500 years of lifespan to evolve martial arts.]

[In your first year, you arrived at the Demon Suppression Division's Cultivation Techniques Pavilion and, according to your authority as a Demon Suppression Captain, observed many first and second-realm body-refining techniques.]

[In the tenth year, you have mastered many body-refining techniques, but you only apply them superficially, attempting to find your way forward.]

[In your twentieth year, you arrived at the Sumeru Temple in the Northern Territory. The Vajra Body is a superior cultivation method of the Sumeru Temple, and you came here seeking a breakthrough.]

[In the thirtieth year, out of consideration for your position as a Demon-Suppressing Captain, the Xumi Temple allowed you to study Buddhist scriptures in the Sutra Repository, where you calmed your mind.]

In the thirty-fifth year, you learned that the Sumeru Temple possessed a divine body-refining technique called the "Bodhi Golden Body."

[In your fortieth year, you left the Sumeru Temple. The divine power was the foundation of your family, which you did not attain, but you were not discouraged.]

[In your hundredth year, you summarized the strengths of all schools of thought and accumulated countless knowledge, and thus created a new method.]

Luo Chen watched the lines of information scroll by, his eyes filled with regret.

As a first-rate power in the Northern Territory, Sumeru Temple must possess the subsequent techniques of the Vajra Body.

Unfortunately, he couldn't get it, otherwise he could have saved a lot of time.

But this outcome was expected.

Luo Chen calmed down and continued his deductions.

[In the 180th year, you went astray, and suffered a backlash due to the overly complex nature of your cultivation methods.]

[In the 240th year, you recovered from your severe injuries. Having learned from your previous experience, you began to streamline and simplify your cultivation techniques.]

[In the 370th year, you slay demons and monsters, your hands stained with countless dropes of blood. Due to your excessive bloodlust, your cultivation techniques have begun to transform.]

[In the 450th year, a Buddha-like light shone from behind your head, suppressing your malevolent aura. The Buddhist cultivation you've accumulated over decades gave you a powerful surge of energy.]

[In your five hundredth year, your martial arts body has undergone a complete transformation, which you have named—the Golden Body of Prison Suppression!]

[Martial Arts: Prison-Suppressing Golden Body (Perfected)]

Lifespan: 17/1678.

boom.

It seemed as if a halo of Buddha's light shone from behind Luo Chen's head.

The muscles, bones, skin, and membranes throughout the body began to vibrate and sublimate, and strands of golden Buddha light bloomed and blossomed from within the body.

It seemed as if countless ghosts and demons were howling and roaring in his ears, but a ray of Buddhist light descended from the heavens, carrying the power to suppress the hell, and easily pressed him into the boundless hell.

In the void, golden Sanskrit scriptures appeared out of thin air, slowly rotating around Luo Chen.

The Buddhist scriptures he had practiced for decades appeared one by one in Luo Chen's mind.

Luo Chen clasped his hands together, then suddenly a ferocious look appeared on his face.

Point forward.

kill!

The endless Sanskrit characters in the void turned blood red, transformed into a finger, and stabbed towards the mountain wall.

With a deafening roar as the mountainside succumbed to its weight, he pierced the entire hill with a single finger.

On Luo Chen's condensed golden body, there seemed to be wisps of blood-red light swirling around, giving it a demonic appearance.

call!

Luo Chen let out a long breath, his heart as still as a mirror, without a ripple.

Neither the Buddha's light nor the demonic nature seemed to have any effect on his true nature.

"Not bad, the power of the Prison-Suppressing Golden Body is quite a good technique."

Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself that five hundred years was quite good.

His gaze fell on the section on cultivation techniques, and his expression became hesitant.

"Invest in longevity to evolve the "Secret Book of the Great Sun Divine Spring"."

This technique was the foundation for his breakthrough, so he chose to go all in.

[Successfully implemented the Longevity Evolution Technique.]

[In the first year, you attempted to open the 261st acupoint, and you succeeded. However, this acupoint cannot connect with the others, and it will inevitably close again over time.]

[In your fiftieth year, you attempted to use your vast amount of vital energy to open all thirty-six acupoints in one breath. This would create a small divine spring, allowing the acupoints to be preserved.]

[In the 130th year, you successfully stabilized the newly opened thirty-six acupoints. You were overjoyed, for you had found the path forward.]

[In the second hundred years, you wanted to continue using the previous method, but you discovered that the number of acupoints in your body was far less than three hundred and sixty.]

In the 270th year, after countless hours, you finally found the remaining hidden acupoints.

[In the 320th year, you successfully opened 330 acupoints, only to find that the further you go, the more difficult it becomes.]

[In the four hundredth year, you successfully opened 360 acupoints, but you were not happy because your strength had not increased as much as expected.]

[In your five hundredth year, you will understand why your unparalleled martial arts techniques cannot compare to the inheritances of those powerful forces: it is because the acupoints within your body are connected by several small divine springs to form a single Great Sun Divine Spring.]

[In your six hundredth year, you attempted to change your operational path for the first time, shaking your very foundations and suffering severe injuries!]

[In the 650th year, having recovered from your severe injuries, you once again attempt to sever all the connections between your acupoints. Your vital energy and blood begin to decline at an alarming rate each day.]

[In the 780th year, after decades of contemplation, you finally decided to construct a Great Sun Furnace within your body!]

[In the 830th year, your vital energy soars to the heavens, your golden body shines through the ages. Your vital energy is even stronger than at its peak. Your vital energy is the fuel, your body is the furnace, forging the true essence of Yin and Yang.]

[Technique: Great Sun Furnace Secret Manual (Perfected)]

[Realm: Profound Aperture (360 Apertures)]

Lifespan: 17/848.

puff!

Luo Chen suddenly coughed up blood, and his vital energy and life force began to rapidly decline.

One by one, the sacred springs began to stop flowing and dried up.

The Great Sun Divine Spring, connected to the acupoints, instantly decayed, the acupoints dimmed, and the illusory image of the divine spring collapsed instantly.

Luo Chen suffered severe mental and physical trauma, and his life force was on the verge of extinction.

At the very last moment.

The golden finger began to exert its power, and an extremely pure stream of qi and blood was generated out of thin air and poured into the acupoints.

Immediately afterwards, one by one, the dim acupoints began to light up.

Rumble!

Qi and blood act as a guide, connecting the body's acupoints and transforming into a great furnace, where they burn away the yin and yang essence...

Amidst the boiling of qi and blood, a great sun furnace was suddenly formed.

Within the acupoints, the dissipating qi tried to escape, but was easily imprisoned by the Great Sun Furnace.

Luo Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with a mixture of Buddhist compassion and murderous intent, which eventually subsided into calm.

His gaze was fixed on the distant river, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"The demons are coming."

As he finished speaking...

A giant wave hundreds of meters high surged up on the already turbulent river surface, and on the wave, a figure seemed to be standing.

Luo Chen narrowed his eyes and, after traversing more than ten miles, clearly saw the figure.

Above the giant waves, a young man, nine feet tall, wearing fish-scale armor, a white jade hair crown, and holding a large hammer, stood proudly.

The young man was also looking at Luo Chen, licked his lips, and laughed heartily.

"A warrior from the Demon Suppression Division, so young, his flesh and blood must be quite delicious."

The commotion on the riverbank was so great that the demon-suppressing envoys from nearby villages all rushed over.

Luo Chen stood up, looked at the silver-white scale on the other person's forehead, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He reads books frequently, both in simulations and in reality.

As if he had thought of something, his tone became slightly more serious.

"The spirits of heaven and earth residing in the Dragon Palace of the Bailong River?"
