Supreme Lord of Towers

Above the gate made of white jade stone, there’s a groove the size of a millstone.

According to Elder Lu, Ye Chen only needs to place the Hall Master Seal from his body into the groove, and he can open this white jade gate and enter the third layer of the Cultivation Hall.

If external force is used to forcibly destroy this gate, not only will it be impossible to enter the third layer of the Cultivation Hall, but it will also trigger the surrounding array, which could potentially annihilate even a peak Celestial Spirit Realm expert.

So, since ancient times, no one has dared to do so.

With a thunderous boom.

When Ye Chen placed the Hall Master Seal into the groove, the heavy white jade stone gate opened by itself.

What came into Ye Chen’s view was a magnificent hall, resplendent with gold and jade.

This hall, although extremely spacious, was empty everywhere and covered in thick dust, as if it has not been cleaned for many years.

Since the previous Battle King Hall Master passed away forty years ago, no one has entered here again.

Ye Chen’s gaze suddenly fell upon a stone platform in the center of the hall, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

On top of this stone platform were two Jadeite Jade Boxes, also covered in thick dust.

If Ye Chen guessed correctly, the two clan’s secret techniques of the Battle King Hall were stored in these two Jadeite Jade Boxes.

Whoosh.

The next moment, Ye Chen’s body left an afterimage on the spot, impatiently flying towards the stone platform.

He arrived in front of the two Jadeite Jade Boxes, brushed away the dust on top with his hand, and then opened one of the Jadeite Jade Boxes.

”This is the lower grade profound level martial art of the Battle King Hall, the ’Fierce Sun Heaven-Breaking Fist’.” Intense light shot out from Ye Chen’s eyes.

’Fierce Sun Heaven-Breaking Fist’ is one of the four famous profound level martial arts of the Celestial Flame Academy, and only successive Battle King Hall Masters can practice it.

However, since ancient times, only the third generation Battle King Hall Master successfully cultivated this martial art to the final layer, comprehending the Fierce Sun True Intent within.

As a result, he broke through to the Divine Mansion Realm, becoming an immortal above the mortal realm, and finally left the Celestial Flame Dynasty, never to return.

If the third generation hall master were still around, the Battle King Hall would never have declined.

”I want to see what differences there are between profound level martial arts and yellow level martial arts.” Ye Chen looked curious and began to peruse the contents of the ’Fierce Sun Heaven-Breaking Fist’.

After half a cup of tea’s time, he had a general understanding of the ’Fierce Sun Heaven-Breaking Fist’.

This lower grade profound level martial art was created by an immortal from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect and belongs to fire attribute martial arts.

It is divided into six layers.

Upon cultivating to the fifth layer, one can enter the Transformation Realm, gaining extremely terrifying power, enough to crush any yellow level top grade martial arts.

Upon cultivating to the sixth layer, one can comprehend the Fierce Sun True Intent contained within.

Although, among all true intents, the Fierce Sun True Intent is among the weakest.

However, if a mortal can grasp the Fierce Sun True Intent, they can basically walk unchallenged in the mortal realm.

”Master, this world has an extremely diverse range of martial arts true intents. The more powerful the martial arts technique, the more terrifying the true intent it contains. Among all true intents, those in lower grade profound level martial arts are considered the weakest, yet they are enough to help a peak Celestial Spirit Realm expert open up a Divine Mansion,” the Tower Spirit said with a faint smile.

Martial Arts Techniques are divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow levels.

Yellow level martial arts are those in the mortal realm, hence they are called Mortal Martial Arts.

Above the profound level, martial arts are created by esteemed immortals, so they are called Immortal Martial Arts.

However, even Immortal Martial Arts have strong and weak variations.

Profound level martial arts, among all Immortal Martial Arts, are undoubtedly the weakest.

While Celestial Level Martial Arts are the strongest.

Unfortunately, Celestial Level Martial Arts are extremely rare, and even an immortal sect like the Azure Sky Immortal Sect might not possess a single Celestial Level Martial Art.

Generally, only a Divine Spirit Family or one of the Six Great Sacred Lands, these gigantic forces, possess Celestial Level Martial Arts.

So, for the current Ye Chen, obtaining a Celestial Level Martial Art is simply an unattainable dream.

”Even the most ordinary lower grade profound level martial art requires consuming a thousand points of Power of Enlightenment to comprehend its true intent. If it’s a Celestial Level Martial Art, who knows how much Power of Enlightenment it would require?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but sigh, a bitter smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

”Haha! Master, you’ll know when the time comes. Right now, you are in a mortal realm like the Celestial Flame Dynasty, where cultivation resources are extremely scarce, making it tremendously difficult to obtain Wood Spirit Qi. But once you leave the Celestial Flame Dynasty, it will become much easier,” the Tower Spirit comforted Ye Chen.

”Indeed, all will be smooth sailing in time. For now, I should first practice the ’Small Glazed Battle Body’. As for this lower grade profound level martial art, I will cultivate it when I have enough Power of Enlightenment,” Ye Chen nodded.

Afterwards, he stored the ’Fierce Sun Heaven-Breaking Fist’ into the Human Emperor’s Space, and began to open the other Jadeite Jade Box.

Inside this Jadeite Jade Box was a silver tome, with the five bold words ’Small Glazed Battle Body’ written in an elegant script on the cover.

”As expected, the ’Small Glazed Battle Body’ evolved from the ’Glazed Battle Body’, and its power is much smaller than the ’Glazed Battle Body’. However, it’s also not that difficult to cultivate,” Ye Chen couldn’t help but mutter to himself after browsing the contents of the ’Small Glazed Battle Body’.

Just like the ’Glazed Battle Body’, the ’Small Glazed Battle Body’ is also divided into four layers.

After successfully mastering the first layer, the physical body can increase its strength by the power of a thousand tigers.

The second layer reaches the power of two thousand tigers.

The third layer is three thousand tiger power.

However, if the ”Lesser Glazed Martial Body” is cultivated to the fourth layer, strength can instantly double, reaching the power of six thousand tigers.

Nonetheless, this is the most challenging step.

Even the Hall Masters of the War King Hall throughout history have required a long time to master the fourth layer.

”The Lesser Glazed Martial Body only requires cultivation to the Gang Qi Realm to practice, and there’s no need to take special spirit pills, just soak in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool. It seems that the Azure Sky Immortal Sect transformed the ’Glazed Martial Body’ into the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ to allow more people to cultivate.” Ye Chen speculated.

It’s well known that the threshold for cultivating the ’Glazed Martial Body’ is incredibly high, not only needing to reach the Celestial Spirit Realm but also requiring the consumption of special Glazed Pills.

Without the Glazed Pills, progress is impossible.

The Glazed Pills are incredibly expensive, and the Azure Sky Immortal Sect would not casually give them to others.

Thus, even if the Azure Sky Immortal Sect were willing to bestow the ’Glazed Martial Body’ body refining technique to the War King Hall, past Hall Masters could not cultivate it.

Contrarily, the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ only requires soaking in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool to continue cultivating, with a threshold much lower than that of the ’Glazed Martial Body’.

Most of the past Hall Masters of the War King Hall could cultivate this technique to perfection.

”I wonder, with my body refining talent, how long it will take to master the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’?” Ye Chen’s eyes were filled with strong anticipation.

Although he temporarily couldn’t condense the remaining six Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns,

once he perfected the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’, his physical body could also increase by six thousand tiger power.

By then, even an ordinary peak Celestial Spirit Realm expert, he would have the confidence to defeat, let alone that slut Ye Lin’Er.

Therefore, his pressing task is to quickly perfect the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’.

As for enhancing his cultivation, that can wait until after mastering the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’.

”Duanmu Ying, just you wait, I’ll soon come to take your dog life in revenge for Elder Ouyang, and Ye Lin’Er, your end is near too.” Ye Chen’s lips curled into a faint cold smile as he stepped out of the hall.

Half an hour later.

Ye Chen arrived next to the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool, halfway up the main peak of the War King Hall.

Even though Ye Chen had absorbed about half of the Wood Spirit Qi contained in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool, its efficacy hadn’t diminished.

”Fortunately, I didn’t siphon all the Wood Spirit Qi from the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool last time, or I’d be unable to cultivate the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ now.” Ye Chen thought to himself with relief.

With a loud splash,

the next moment, Ye Chen leaped completely into the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool and started cultivating the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’.

The principle of cultivating the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ is actually quite similar to the ’Ancient Golden Elephant Technique’, both using internal power to refine the physical body.

However, the ’Ancient Golden Elephant Technique’ only requires using True Qi to refine the body.

In contrast, the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ must utilize Gang Qi or Celestial Spirits.

This is why only cultivators who have reached the Gang Qi Realm can practice the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’.

However, Ye Chen’s cultivation has already reached the Gang Qi Realm, so he’s unrestricted.

With a sizzling sound,

as Ye Chen willed it, a surge of extremely violent Gang Qi erupted like a wild horse, gushing forth from his Sea of Qi, rushing to every corner of his body, starting to temper his flesh.

Ah!

This process, undoubtedly, is extremely painful, even more so than cultivating the ’Ancient Golden Elephant Technique’, as if pierced by ten thousand arrows.

Even Ye Chen couldn’t help but cry out.

However, he was long accustomed to this pain, so he persisted through gritted teeth.

”This body refining technique is indeed overbearing. Although after cultivating the Human Emperor Body my physical form became quite strong, it can still refine my body and push it to new heights.” Ye Chen couldn’t help but exclaim.

As his physical body continually strengthens, ordinary body refining techniques are already of no use to him, unable to enhance his power even slightly.

However, the ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’ still proved highly effective for him.

It’s evident, this technique is indeed extraordinary and worthy of having been created by an immortal.

Simultaneously, Ye Chen was grateful that he hadn’t gone ahead with condensing the other six Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns.

Otherwise, his Human Emperor Body would become so strong that not even this top-level body refining technique, ’Lesser Glazed Martial Body’, could refine his body anymore.

Then, his loss would have been immense.
