Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2685: Chapter 2688: Titan Clan

Outside the transparent light shield, there were streams of people coming and going.

Here, no matter how strong you were, you still had to enter from the Formation’s entrance.

The Formation’s entrance was also the entrance to this inner city.

The entire city was circular, surrounded by a ring-shaped river. Above the river, one hundred and eight White Jade Bridges had been built, each a thousand meters long and a hundred meters wide.

These were the entrances in and out of the inner city.

The encircling river could not be flown across. Once, a Saint Monarch Strong One tried to fly over it, only to be swallowed in one bite by a sudden blue shadow that shot out of the river. By the time that blue shadow returned to the river, some Saints and Saint Monarchs outside still hadn’t seen clearly what it was. From then on, no one dared to fly across the encircling river.

Jiang Chen and his group descended from the sky, landing in front of one of the bridges.

”You can’t fly across this encircling river, or you’ll draw the attack of an ultimate ferocious beast. Walking from here to the Formation’s light shield, these White Jade Bridges will absorb the turbid qi from everyone’s body, and some of the impurities in your bodies will all be filtered. As for that Formation light shield, it will temper all the power in your body once over.”

The only one in the group who had been to this inner city before, Hu Yiqiu, stepped onto the bridge as he explained:

”This is a special kind of tempering. Each person can only undergo it once. Many who qualify to come here will choose to wait until they’re about to break through into Integration Path to come here for tempering. After all, Integration Path requires not only comprehending the Great Dao, but also Refining Spiritual Power and Primordial Spirit Power.”

As Hu Yiqiu explained, everyone stepped onto the White Jade Bridge.

Jiang Chen could clearly feel an invisible power permeating into his body from the White Jade Bridge. This power was formless and intangible, and impossible to block.

His brows rose slightly as Jiang Chen carefully sensed this power.

After that power entered his body, it began to flow through his entire body. Before long, it started to slow down. When it could no longer advance, it would flow back and return into the White Jade Bridge.

Is this cleansing oneself?

Jiang Chen pondered silently. That power seemed to have taken something away from his body, which should be the impurities Hu Yiqiu had mentioned. After that power returned to the White Jade Bridge, he felt clear-headed and refreshed, his body light as a swallow.

Buzz!

Just as that power faded, another similar force seeped into his body, continuing to flow within him.

”No wonder everyone is walking so slowly. So it can cleanse the body too. In that case, it’ll be much more convenient to do Body Refining in the future!”

Lei Ling’er said with a light laugh.

”Body Refining?”

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned.

He’d never really thought about actively doing Body Refining. His body had only been tempered by a few coincidental opportunities on Yuan Star. However, there was Dragon Qi in his acupoints, constantly tempering his acupoints and thus passively refining his body as well—just a bit slower than active Body Refining.

”Yeah, you and Jiang Chen-ge don’t need it, but we do.”

Lei Ling’er lightly nodded.

”Cultivators of the Human Race actually need Body Refining as well, but that’s something for after becoming a Saint.”

Hu Yiqiu softly added a line.

Jiang Chen glanced at Hu Yiqiu, and an idea surfaced in his heart.

”Young Jiang, don’t tell me you’re thinking about doing Body Refining right now.”

Hu Yiqiu sensed something off about Jiang Chen and hurriedly spoke: ”You’ve already started Refining Spiritual Power and Tempering Primordial Spirit Power, and you’ve comprehended so many types of Great Dao. If you go and do Body Refining on top of that, when will you ever raise your realm?

I know what you’re thinking, that the realm isn’t important and strength is fundamental—but that’s not completely right. You should have felt it during the Alchemy Dao contest as well. Sometimes, even if your comprehension is enough to unleash some powerful attacks, because your realm hasn’t reached that level, you simply can’t. That’s your realm limiting your strength!”

Jin Ang also reminded him in a low voice, ”Indeed, Mr Jiang, once you reach the Extraterritorial Battlefield you should break through your realm. Suppressing it like this isn’t a solution. Body Refining isn’t urgent for the moment. When you break through to Saint and shatter your Dao Seeds to form your Domain, your body will collapse, and then heaven and earth rewards will help you reshape your body. By then, no matter how strong your old body was tempered, it’ll be useless.”

”Shattering the body?”

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, then chuckled softly. ”It was just a thought. Since it’s wasted effort, I won’t spend the time on it. Better to break through as soon as possible!”

”Cultivating the body Below the Saint isn’t useless either. It can also raise your combat power. As long as your body can surpass the opponent’s Great Dao Attack power, their attacks will leave you Wu Shang, while you can kill them with a single punch!”

A deep, muffled voice rang out as a layer of shadow covered Jiang Chen and the others.

Jiang Chen turned his head to look, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Beside them stood a burly man three meters tall, his frame enormous, shoulders broad and waist thick. With Jiang Chen’s one meter eighty height standing before him, he looked like a child.

Sitting on the man’s left shoulder was an absolutely stunning girl with fair skin and bare little feet. She looked about seventeen or eighteen, wearing multicolored clothes that only covered the important parts, revealing large patches of tender white skin. Her lotus-root-like jade arms and long legs stirred endless imagination. Paired with that peerless face, she was simply a supreme beauty of the mortal world!

Because the big man had spoken, people around them looked over, yet their gazes were all drawn to the girl. Behind the big man, quite a few people had already gathered, seemingly having followed them all the way.

”Titan Clan?”

Hu Yiqiu murmured softly.

Jiang Chen turned his head over, a trace of puzzlement in his eyes.

”The Titan Clan is one of the indigenous races of the Void Nether Realm, specializing in Physical Strength. They generally cooperate with the Wind Spirits, another indigenous race. The Wind Spirit Clan is proficient in the Dao of Wind, making up for the Titan Clan’s inability to take flight Below the Saint.”

Hu Yiqiu explained in a low voice.

Unable to take flight Below the Saint!?

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, looking at that big man in surprise.

Whoosh!

Seeing the big man stop, the girl jumped down from his shoulder, landing in front of Jiang Chen and the others. However, she hovered twenty centimeters above the ground, with two wind vortices under her feet supporting her body so she wouldn’t touch the ground, and her height was exactly level with Jiang Chen’s.

Jiang Chen and the others were slightly taken aback. They were complete strangers, yet she came to block their path—that carried a bit of provocation.

”My name is Feng Xuan’er, and this is Da Han. What this senior said is right, we’re of the Wind Spirit Clan and Titan Clan. May I ask which faction you seniors hail from?”

The girl spoke with a light smile.

”Jiang Chen, from Changlin Academy.”

The others did not speak. Jiang Chen lightly introduced himself and said calmly, ”Does Miss Feng have some business with us?”

These two were both no weaklings. Feng Xuan’er was at Virtual Refinement Realm Peak, and that Titan Clan big man called Da Han, in Jiang Chen’s perception, was also at Virtual Refinement Realm Peak, though there was something a bit strange about him.
