Chapter 36 Great Evolution Body Refining Technique! Further Breakthrough!
The blizzard gradually subsided around Liu Yuan.
With a thought, the three soul rings—one yellow, one purple, and one black—quietly disappeared, and the precious light flowing in his double pupils also receded into the depths.
He steadied his slightly agitated soul power, which had been amplified by the four consecutive leaps in power, and strode towards Poison Undying.
However, when he got closer, he found that his cheap master was not laughing as before. Instead, he was frowning, standing with his hands behind his back, deep in thought.
"Master, what are you thinking about? Are you not satisfied with my demonstration just now?" Liu Yuan asked with some doubt.
Poison Immortal snapped out of his daze upon hearing the voice, his deep green eyes scanning Liu Yuan back and forth. After a long while, he sighed softly, "I was thinking, since your third soul ring is already so powerful, what kind of thing should we give you for your fourth soul ring when you reach level forty?"
"..." Liu Yuan's lips twitched, and he spread his hands helplessly.
"Master, my third spirit ring has barely warmed up, and you're already planning way ahead?"
"Far? Not at all!" Du Bu Si snorted, pointing at him with an air of self-righteousness.
"How long has it taken you to go from level 20 to level 30?"
"At this rate of leveling up, you might reach level 40 in another six months or a year. I'll have to rummage through my chests and see which ten-thousand-year-old soul beast is worthy of your eyes."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan couldn't help but fall into a brief moment of contemplation.
Indeed, that's not wrong.
Moreover, he has a great deal of room to choose his fourth spirit ring.
If we continue to delve deeper into the spiritual attributes, we can find soul beasts with top-tier "illusion" or "soul stripping" abilities, which can kill people without them even realizing it.
If he wanted to enhance the physical suppression brought by the "Qilin Treasure Technique", he could even use his immense mental power to condense an indestructible physical shell, making physical combat even more pure and violent.
Therefore, Liu Yuan himself had not yet decided how to choose.
"No rush, Master, let's proceed and see." Liu Yuan smiled, then looked around at the snow-covered wasteland, and asked Poison Undying:
"The spirit rings are done. Shall we head back now?"
"Go back? What a waste! The core area of the far north is such a natural treasure that we might not even get to visit once a year. Wouldn't it be a terrible waste to just leave like this?"
As he spoke, Du Bu Si took out an ancient book from his bosom, its cover a dark blue color with a faint metallic sheen, and casually tossed it to Liu Yuan.
"Take it. This is the secret technique of my Body Sect, known as the Great Evolution Body Refining Technique."
"Originally, I planned to teach you after you reached level 40 and your physical body was fully formed."
"But now it seems that since you have obtained the Qilin Treasure Technique, your physical strength has already met the requirements ahead of schedule."
"Moreover, this place is just right."
Liu Yuan took the book, and the moment his fingertips touched the cover, he felt an inexplicable sense of heaviness.
He turned to the first page, his eyes quickly scanning the densely packed diagrams of meridian circulation.
Soon, he found a note at the end of the book:
The Great Evolution Body Refinement follows the natural order and thrives against the odds. In places of extreme cold, extreme heat, or violent thunder, the technique's circulation doubles, and the body-tempering effect increases exponentially.
"Extreme cold…" Liu Yuan looked up at the polar hurricanes around him, which were cold enough to freeze steel blades instantly, and his eyes lit up. "Master, do you mean I should train my body here?"
"That's right. The Qilin Treasure Technique is powerful, but it's ultimately an external amplification brought by a soul skill. Only when your physical body is trained to the point of being indestructible can you truly bear a higher-level soul ring." Poison Immortal pointed to the glacier in the distance.
"Go, and see if the fierce winds of the far north can sharpen the edge of your swift blade!"
"Okay!" Liu Yuan agreed immediately upon hearing this.
...
For the next two weeks, Liu Yuan and Du Busi completely disappeared into the depths of the snow and wind in the far north.
Liu Yuan completely abandoned his clothes, his muscular upper body bare, and sat cross-legged atop an ice peak that had never melted for millennia.
He frantically circulated the "Great Evolution Body Refining Technique," guiding the chilling air from the outside world—enough to freeze the soul—into his skin. Then, he used his powerful soul force to transform it, repeatedly washing over and tempering every bone and muscle in his body.
Every day, Liu Yuan's body undergoes a brutal process of healing from frostbite and cracking.
In the midst of extreme pain, he became increasingly aware of the importance of physical strength.
"Not enough, it needs to be stronger!" Liu Yuan shouted in his heart.
He knew very well that if his physical body could be upgraded to another level, then when the fourth spirit ring arrived, he might be able to try to touch that deep black spirit ring that represented forty or fifty thousand years of cultivation.
At that time, the qualitative change in his soul skills and the feedback from his level will allow him to leave his peers, and even the older generation of powerhouses, behind at an even more terrifying speed.
Time flies, and fifteen days have passed in a flash.
On this day, Liu Yuan, who had been sitting still like a stone statue, suddenly trembled, and a smooth, jade-like yet indestructible aura flashed across his body.
His muscle lines became smoother and firmer, and every inch of his skin subtly revealed a divine gold-like texture.
More importantly, as the physical body completed a small-scale breakthrough, the long-accumulated soul power also naturally took that step.
Level 35!
In less than twenty days, he was promoted another level.
This speed is enough to make any self-proclaimed genius feel ashamed and indignant.
"Good! Your qi and blood are as smooth as mercury, and your muscles and bones are throbbing with power. You've finally entered the door of the Great Evolution Body Refining Technique!"
Poison Undying's figure appeared instantly beside Liu Yuan, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
Liu Yuan opened his eyes, and the sharp light shooting from his double pupils stirred up ripples in the air. He stretched his limbs and felt that his whole body was full of inexhaustible strength.
"Still not satisfied with your training?" Du Bu Si seemed to see through his thoughts. Suddenly, his eyes flickered, and he looked at a patch of ice in front of him and chuckled.
"Perfect timing. Three miles to the west, there's a 10,000-year-old ice gorilla that's just returned from foraging."
"That beast is incredibly strong and excels at close combat. Now that your cultivation and physical body have both broken through, go and practice with it to see how your current combat abilities really are."
After hearing Du Bu Si's words, Liu Yuan remained silent for a moment.
He knew very well that a soul beast with ten thousand years of cultivation actually had the same combat power as a human soul master, soul king, or soul emperor.
Furthermore, this is the far north, the opponent's home ground, so fighting it here is extremely dangerous.
But Liu Yuan examined the poison-free body more closely.
Seeing the other person chuckling, she asked, "What? Scared?"
Liu Yuan snorted coldly: "What's there to be afraid of? With Master backing me up, what do I have to be afraid of! I'll go and meet it!"
