Body Refinement for Longevity: From Health Cultivation Exercises to Overcoming All Techniques

"Then I will tell you now, this realm does indeed exist. The old patriarch went to find a way to break through to the Martial Venerable realm, and the Huaiyan family elder can also be understood as seeking immortality and enlightenment..."

"Immortal!"

Chen Huaiyan exclaimed in surprise.

……

"What?! An immortal?!"

On the other side, Chen Han, sitting in the carriage, took out the book "The Record of the Azure Oriole" again to pass the time.

As he looked around, he discovered a word that stirred his heart and instantly roused him from his drowsy state.

That's right, it's an 'immortal'!

Chen Han rubbed his eyes, composed himself, and looked at the book again. "One day, I traveled through the southern borderlands and arrived at a place called Fangjian Mountain. This place is located deep in the mountains, isolated from the world, with fertile soil and abundant water, where the people live in peace and prosperity."

"I thought this place was just an ordinary spot, but unexpectedly, I met a woman there that day."

The woman was beautiful, with delicate features. She stood on a sword, flying in from the horizon, her long black hair flowing freely. Her white robe was as white as snow, and she exuded an ethereal aura, inspiring awe and reverence in all who beheld her.

"I consider myself quite good-looking, even surpassing the city's princess in appearance, but today, I've truly been amazed. This woman is absolutely stunning; she must be a fairy descended from heaven..."

"When the common people saw this woman, they all knelt down. I didn't dare cause trouble, so I knelt down along with them..."

"After making inquiries, I learned that this woman was indeed a fairy, but they had another name for each other: cultivators. Commoners called them immortal cultivators..."

"This cultivator came to test spiritual roots in order to recruit disciples for the sect. Although I didn't know what spiritual roots were, I had the opportunity to go up and try it."

There were over a hundred young men and women who took the spiritual root test, but only one or two successfully qualified.

I didn't have high hopes, but the final result of the test was three colors. The cultivator said that I have three true spiritual roots and can follow them into the sect to cultivate immortality.

I'm very happy. Although I don't know what this legendary cultivation of immortality means, the thought of being as ethereal and respected as this fairy makes me yearn for it.

After turning the last page, this book comes to an end.

Chen Han was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Wow, there really are immortals in this world..."

According to my understanding from my previous life, cultivating immortality meant achieving eternal life, being able to roam freely throughout the world, and even making friends with immortals...

Thinking of this, Chen Han couldn't help but worry again, 'Do I have spiritual roots?'

Just then, a soft rustling sound came from ahead. Chen Han frowned and looked closely. A black bear, more than three zhang long, was leaning against a tree, rubbing its back from side to side.

Its body was enormous, its eyes were like copper bells, its two pairs of bear paws were extremely large, and its face was covered in blood, obviously it had just hunted and filled its stomach, and its expression was ferocious and terrifying.

The tree it used to scrub its back was quite large, barely enough for two people to encircle, yet even such a massive tree was nothing more than a toy for scrubbing its back.

An ordinary person would probably be terrified and panicked if they saw this scene, but Chen Han found it rather cute.

Chen Han's eyes lit up. After observing carefully, he finally determined that the strange beast was over a hundred years old and that its heart was exactly the martial arts training resource he needed.

The black bear naturally noticed Chen Han at this moment, but it did not stop its actions, and did not even give this stupid human a proper look. Looking at his thin arms and legs, how dare he appear in front of it with that? He must be tired of living.

It was only because it had just eaten its fill and was enjoying the back massage that it let the human go.

But the next moment, it saw that this ignorant human not only did not run away when he saw it, but actually walked up to it.

Immediately, it felt dissatisfied and thought, "If you want to die, then I'll grant your wish."

As soon as it touched the ground, the earth around it trembled. It raised its huge paws and slapped at Chen Han with such force that it created a strong wind, aiming to smash this human into mincemeat.

However, the next moment, Chen Han smiled faintly, lightly stepped forward, and then met the attack with one hand in a palm strike.

After a dull thud, Chen Han easily caught the terrifyingly powerful palm strike.

The black bear was stunned, and its eyes widened immediately.

"The journey is tedious, Brother Bear, may I borrow your bear paw for a moment..."

······

In less than thirty breaths, the once mighty and invincible giant bear, which had dominated the deep mountains, collapsed with a thud, its eyes still filled with deep terror, as if it had seen a demon.

Chen Han rubbed his wrist, thinking that this hundred-year-old beast was nothing special. He hadn't even used his full strength yet, and the black bear was already scared and wanted to run away.

With no other option, he had to abandon his idea of ​​practicing and fighting the bear a little longer, and instead punched the black bear in the head.

Chen Han took out his knife and quickly ripped out the black bear's heart. The heart was warm, and its beating was slowly weakening.

Without hesitation, Chen Han put the whole thing in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it. It wasn't hard for Chen Han to swallow, and it was much better than the ones he used to eat that had been stored for a long time and had lost their flavor. The main feature was its freshness.

Rumble~

Not far away, the sky was dark and thunder rumbled, clearly indicating that a heavy rain was about to fall.

Chen Han chopped off a bear paw, intending to rest there and let the two mares rest as well. Each mare cost a hundred taels, and he would feel bad if they got too tired.

Although the money was "borrowed" from Master Li, the Marco he bought was his.

Of course, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Han walked a little further away from the blood-smelling black bear carcass.

Chen Han set up a small shelter from the rain, started a fire, and then roasted the bear paws over the fire after processing them. After about half an hour, the bear paws were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sizzling with oil.

Chen Han sprinkled on the spices and couldn't wait to take a big bite.

Suddenly... vomit...

After chewing a couple of times, a foul smell entered his mouth and nose, rushing straight to the top of his head, and he gagged and vomited it all out.

"Damn it, who said bear paws are delicious!"

Chen Han was filled with righteous indignation. This taste was even worse than the heart he had just eaten. At least the latter had a stronger bloody smell, but he was already immune to the smell of blood, so this was no problem for him at all.

The pungent smell of the bear paw was unbearable; even chewing half a bite was torture, and adding spices was useless.

Chen Han looked at the bear paw in his hand, which was bigger than his face. He wanted to throw it away but was reluctant. "I put a lot of effort into baking it. I can't let it go to waste."

Then, he saw his two little mares grazing and, out of curiosity, tossed them the bear paws.

I was thinking of treating my two loyal subordinates to a nice meal.

But to everyone's surprise, the two maids completely ignored him, and instead gave Chen Han a resentful look, kicking their horses to express their dissatisfaction.

Chen Han raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that good deeds are not rewarded. Not only do you not thank your master, but you also lose your temper with him. This is truly outrageous.

Roar roar~

Just then, Chen Han faintly caught the sound of roaring in the distance amidst the noisy thunder and rain, sweeping in like a tidal wave, overwhelming and powerful.

"Oh no, the beasts!"

Chen Han immediately realized something was wrong.
