Chapter 166: Su Lingxiu Enters the Innate Realm, the Green Wood Spiritual Body
Upon seeing Li Xuan appear, Xu Yan hurriedly asked, "Master, what's wrong with my sister?"
"It's a minor issue," Li Xuan replied calmly, twirling the jade scepter in his hand. It was time to reveal his all-knowing master persona.
"The little lass has a constitutional deficiency due to environmental factors, which has led to an innate deficiency. Now, she's merely making up for that deficiency."
Li Xuan spoke nonchalantly, as if he had seen through everything.
"This breakthrough to the Innate Realm is something she has prepared for. Not only will it make up for her constitutional deficiency, but it will also help her transform and attain a stronger constitution."
Li Xuan fixed his gaze on Su Lingxiu, who was in the final stages of her breakthrough.
Surrounded by a green glow, the trees around her seemed to emanate vitality, merging into Su Lingxiu's body.
"I see!" Xu Yan exclaimed, realizing that his master had everything under control.
"Master, what constitution will my sister have after her breakthrough?" Xu Yan asked curiously.
After his own breakthrough, his Jade Bone had further transformed into a Spirit Bone, an incredibly powerful foundation.
Any warrior would find it impossible to match his endurance!
Li Xuan smiled but didn't answer what kind of constitution it was, as he hadn't received any feedback from his golden finger yet, and he didn't know Su Lingxiu's current state.
Instead, he said, "Disciple, constitution isn't everything. Ascending from the mundane world, you evolve with each realm, building a solid foundation. The more you transform, the more solid and impenetrable your constitution becomes.
As you continue to ascend and approach those with innate constitutions, you will surpass them in strength, becoming even more indestructible and unstoppable!"
Li Xuan's words were meant to encourage Xu Yan to constantly strive for transformation and evolution during his future breakthroughs, something that others might not be able to achieve.
Xu Yan, however, had a good chance of doing so!
"Master is telling me that while those with innate constitutions are powerful, I, without one, can continuously transform and surpass them.
They are limited by their innate constitutions and cannot progress further, but I, rising from the mundane world, have no limits!" Xu Yan's heart swelled with excitement and his blood boiled with enthusiasm.
"Master is reminding me that with my talent, I can continually transform and ascend. Isn't this, in itself, a kind of constitution? Moreover, it's truly limitless, with no upper bounds!"
Xu Yan's imagination ran wild, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He felt the depth of his master's wisdom, understanding that every word and action was a lesson in the ultimate martial path.
Li Xuan glanced at Xu Yan, knowing that his disciple was lost in his thoughts again.
"Keep imagining, for the more you do, the stronger you'll become, and the more profound your understanding of the martial path will be!" Li Xuan secretly thrilled at his disciple's enthusiasm.
He wasn't worried about Xu Yan's wild thoughts; instead, he encouraged them.
Su Lingxiu's breakthrough was proceeding smoothly, and she was in the midst of transformation. Li Xuan turned and strolled back to the manor, his steps relaxed and carefree.
He was eager to discover what kind of constitution Su Lingxiu would attain after her transformation and what kind of feedback it would bring him.
Currently, he possessed the Innate Indestructible Spirit Bone and the Dragon Soaring Mountains and Rivers Spiritual Body. He wondered what kind of constitution he would gain if Su Lingxiu, with her unique constitution, underwent a transformation.
Would his Dragon Soaring Mountains and Rivers Spiritual Body ascend as well?
The Innate Indestructible Spirit Bone was already powerful, being an innate spirit bone. Though he had told Xu Yan not to be concerned about those with innate constitutions, the truth was that anyone with an innate constitution had an extraordinary talent.
They started far ahead of countless other warriors, and how many of those struggling at the bottom could ever catch up?
Of course, Xu Yan was an exception to the norm.
Li Xuan was confident that even if there were powerful innate constitution holders, Xu Yan would surpass them. After all, the martial path he was cultivating was one of Li Xuan's own creation and incredibly formidable.
Whether it was the Jade Bone or Xu Yan's current Dragon Soaring Mountains and Rivers Spirit Bone, they were no less impressive than those with special innate constitutions; they were even superior.
"My Innate Spirit Bone is far beyond the reach of those with powerful innate constitutions," Li Xuan thought to himself.
Back in the manor, he sat down in a chair, relaxed and at ease, awaiting the feedback from his golden finger.
Su Lingxiu was in the midst of her transformation, feeling lighter and more agile. She seemed to have an innate affinity with plants, flowers, and even spiritual herbs.
She could clearly discern the characteristics of spiritual herbs, including their years of growth, even if she had never encountered them before.
The heavenly spiritual energy poured into her, and Innate True Qi was continuously refined within her, endless and vibrant. The True Qi was gentle and mild yet contained a fierce power.
On her palm, a faint green flame of True Qi appeared and burned brightly.
It was the Danfire refined from Innate True Qi!
Boom!
Su Lingxiu swallowed another pill, entering the final stage of her breakthrough. Her physical transformation was also nearing its conclusion.
"So this is the Innate Realm of the Dan Medicinal Martial Way," Su Lingxiu marveled at the changes in her body, her heart filled with joy.
Her strength was surging, and even at the initial stage of the Innate Realm, she could easily defeat peak grandmasters.
While her strength might not compare to Xu Yan's or Meng Chong's, as the Dan Medicinal Martial Way wasn't focused on combat, it was still more than enough to overwhelm inner realm grandmasters.
But this was not enough.
Within the Black-Robed Man's faction, there were grandmasters and even peak grandmasters.
To deal with a peak grandmaster, she would need to reach the perfect stage of the Innate Realm or higher. However, with her two senior brothers by her side, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Even if a grandmaster attacks, I may not be able to defeat them, but I can definitely escape!" Su Lingxiu thought to herself.
Of course, if a grandmaster truly came after her, she wouldn't need to flee. Aside from her master, her two senior brothers were more than capable of handling a grandmaster.
Boom!
At that moment, a green radiance burst forth from Su Lingxiu, and the plants and trees around her flourished. The leaves turned a deeper shade of green.
She had broken through to the Innate Realm!
Her constitution had also completed its transformation.
"Your disciple Su Lingxiu has broken through to the Innate Realm, and your Dan Medicinal Martial Way has advanced to the Profound Understanding Realm."
The feedback from the golden finger arrived.
As Su Lingxiu broke through, the Dan Medicinal Martial Way advanced to the Profound Understanding Realm, and her strength increased once more.
"Your disciple Su Lingxiu has broken through to the Innate Realm and transformed into the Green Wood Spiritual Body. You have obtained the Innate Spiritual Body."
The Green Wood Spiritual Body!
Su Lingxiu's unique constitution, after undergoing transformation and evolution, had become the Green Wood Spiritual Body.
"Innate Spiritual Body?"
Li Xuan contemplated the changes in his body. After acquiring the Innate Spiritual Body, he felt a perfect harmony with his Innate Indestructible Spirit Bone, and his physical body had become even stronger.
His affinity with the heavenly spiritual energy surged once more, and spiritual energy flowed into him at all times, instantly transforming into Innate True Yuan.
The spiritual energy entering his body was gentle and mild, and outsiders couldn't detect anything unusual. If anyone approached him, they would only sense that the spiritual energy around him seemed denser.
The Dragon Soaring Mountains and Rivers Spiritual Body had ascended into the Innate Spiritual Body, encompassing all the traits of the former and becoming even more powerful.
"My strength has increased again!" Li Xuan was thrilled.
Li Xuan was extremely satisfied.
Each of his three disciples had their own strengths, and every time their strength increased, it brought him abundant feedback.
Of course, Xu Yan was the core among the three disciples.
"What kind of feedback will I get when Xu Yan breaks through to the Profound Understanding Realm and undergoes another transformation? Will it surpass the Spirit Bone and Spirit Body?"
Li Xuan was full of anticipation.
Xu Yan was not far from reaching the Profound Understanding Realm.
Currently, he was accumulating his foundation and was about to break through to the Innate Perfection stage.
Su Lingxiu was settling down after her breakthrough, while Xu Yan and Meng Chong continued to perfect themselves, accumulating their foundation and building up their trump cards in preparation for their own breakthroughs.
Xie Lingfeng felt stimulated.
He felt that he might not be able to beat Su Lingxiu anymore.
Not daring to slack off, he diligently cultivated, striving to break through to the Grand Master realm as soon as possible.
As for Hu Shan, he was even more depressed.
Su Lingxiu had sparred with him before her breakthrough, and he hadn't been able to block those golden needles, getting pricked several times.
Now that Su Lingxiu had broken through, he might end up like a porcupine.
"I shouldn't compare myself to geniuses. I, Hu Shan, should compare myself to Grand Masters in the Inner Realm. Among those at the same realm as me, I am quite strong."
With this thought, Hu Shan immediately felt much more relaxed.
Zhou Ying was thrilled. The young miss, who had once needed her protection and care, now possessed strength far beyond her own.
"I must break through to the Innate Realm soon, too!"
Zhou Ying also began to cultivate diligently.
She was just a step away from reaching the Grand Completion stage of the Qi and Blood Realm.
Su Lingxiu was excited about the gains from her breakthrough and was thrilled to have finally entered the Innate Realm. Moreover, her physique seemed rather extraordinary.
"Master, what kind of body do I have?"
Su Lingxiu returned and asked happily as she massaged her master's shoulders.
"Green Wood Spiritual Body."
Li Xuan replied calmly.
"Then, am I very talented?"
Su Lingxiu became even happier.
"The Green Wood Spiritual Body is nothing to brag about. Don't be complacent; you must have ambition and constantly transcend yourself!"
Li Xuan said solemnly.
"Yes, Master!"
Su Lingxiu stuck out her tongue playfully.
After breaking through to the Innate Realm and transcending her Green Wood Spiritual Body, Su Lingxiu began her first attempt at pill refining.
With her hands ablaze with Danfire, she directly refined pills with her hands, and the speed was beyond her imagination.
Soon, she successfully refined a batch of pills, and the quality was even better than when she was at the Qi and Blood Realm.
Subsequently, she continuously refined various pills and quickly accumulated a pile of them, including Qi and Blood Pills, Qi Accumulation Pills, and Strengthening Pills.
Su Lingxiu became even busier after breaking through to the Innate Realm. She was preparing for her return to the Inner Realm.
She spent more time guiding the Longqing Pavilion pill refining apprentices, striving to refine spiritual pills as soon as possible and improve the success rate and quality.
Zhou Ying reached the Grand Completion stage of the Qi and Blood Realm.
Shi Er felt a little depressed as he had fallen a little behind.
Chi Cat's size continued to increase, and it looked more and more like a fat tiger.
However, its aura continued to strengthen, and its physical body became even more robust, but it still felt like a far cry from reaching the threshold of becoming a Grand Demon.
Time flew by as they busied themselves with their tasks.
Finally, the first batch of Qi and Blood Pills produced through the assembly line method was refined in the pill room, with a passable quality and a failure rate of less than 30%.
Su Lingxiu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there weren't many failed attempts, so not much of the spiritual herbs was wasted.
Next up were the Qi Accumulation Pills, Strengthening Pills, and Healing Pills.
Chi Cat had been eating to its heart's content these past few days, and it lay on the ground, not wanting to move at all.
Looking at the basin of waste pills in front of it, it felt like it had lost its will to live.
"Chi Cat, hurry up and eat. Don't waste them!"
Su Lingxiu added another handful of waste pills to the basin and urged it on.
"Roar!"
Chi Cat let out a pitiful roar.
It really couldn't eat anymore!
Su Lingxiu frowned and took out a golden needle, aiming at Chi Cat's acupoints to help it refine the pill energy it had consumed.
However, looking at the short needle in her hand, she felt that it might be too short for Chi Cat's massive size, so she called Shi Er to prepare a set of needles about a foot long.
Li Xuan heard Chi Cat's pitiful howls outside the manor and couldn't help but twitch his lips. Su Lingxiu was stimulating Chi Cat's acupoints with long needles to help it digest the pill energy.
It was best to finish the basin of pills quickly to avoid wastage.
Based on the principle of not wasting any spiritual herbs, Su Lingxiu could only assist Chi Cat in digesting the waste pill energy.
After being pricked many times, Chi Cat finally memorized the acupoints.
"Hey, Chi Cat, you finished eating so quickly?"
A few days later, Su Lingxiu was surprised to find that Chi Cat had quickly devoured all the waste pills and still seemed to want more.
Li Xuan stared at Chi Cat for a long time. This fat tiger was probably going to turn into a Grand Demon.
Xie Lingfeng broke through to the Grand Master realm.
Excited, he went to spar with Xu Yan to improve his swordsmanship. Although he might not be able to withstand Xu Yan's sword, the practice would still greatly improve his swordsmanship.
Su Lingxiu's assembly line pill refining finally succeeded. She could now refine Qi and Blood Pills with a 100% success rate, and the success rate of Qi Accumulation Pills was also approaching 100%. The daily output was quite high.
With an abundance of pills, the members of Longqing Pavilion saw a significant increase in their martial arts cultivation speed.
Pills refined without spiritual herbs had already begun to spread in the frontier, greatly improving the cultivation speed of the local warriors.
Su Lingxiu began to research how to refine the Heaven-Drop Marrow, a fifth-grade spiritual herb.
Refining the Heaven-Drop Marrow required extreme caution, as failure would result in huge losses.
Fifth-grade spiritual herbs were already hard to come by, let alone a rare herb like the Heaven-Drop Marrow.
"Your disciple Xu Yan has broken through to the Innate Perfection stage, and your true essence has doubled."
The golden light appeared, and the feedback from the golden finger arrived.
Xu Yan had broken through to the Innate Perfection stage.
Li Xuan was thrilled. Xu Yan was now just a step away from the Profound Understanding Realm, and once he broke through, Li Xuan could teach him the Profound Understanding Realm cultivation method.
However, after Xu Yan broke through to Innate Perfection, he did not immediately break through to the Profound Understanding Realm. Instead, he continued to temper himself, constantly accumulating his foundation.
He wanted to accumulate a robust foundation before breaking through to the Profound Understanding Realm so that his strength would be even more powerful after the breakthrough.
Li Xuan could sense Xu Yan's growth and some of his changes.
"This is to enhance his foundation in preparation for a transformation and transcendence when he breaks through to the Profound Understanding Realm."
Li Xuan understood.
This was also the reason why Xu Yan did not immediately break through to the Profound Understanding Realm.
"Every realm breakthrough is for transformation and transcendence. Xu Yan has taken my words to heart and is determined to surpass those with innate constitutions?"
Li Xuan was pleased that Xu Yan had such ambition and drive.
It was not a big deal to delay the breakthrough to the Profound Understanding Realm for a while.
Moreover, if he could truly transcend and transform during the breakthrough, it would be worth it even if the breakthrough was postponed for a year or two!
Of course, Xu Yan would only accumulate for a month or two at most before breaking through to the Profound Understanding Realm.
