Chapter 237: The Arhat Golden Body Technique
Chapter 237: The Arhat Golden Body Technique
"Fortunately."
Shen Yi realized that he truly thought so and hadn't exaggerated in the slightest.
"This is what I don't understand."
Zhu Shi put away his gaze and squatted back onto the skeleton frame, silently watching Shen Yi: "You actually understood what I said."
Just now, he had sent out a wisp of white mist.
And Shen Yi had actually listened intently to the distracting thoughts within, furrowing his brows slightly but hearing it through to the end.
The same white mist, to Zhu Jue, sounded like meaningless chirping.
"..."
Those with natural talent often lacked in temperament, and those who worked hard often lacked in talent. It was a vexing conundrum.
No wonder there had only been thirteen Transcendent Cultivators in the Great Qian Dynasty throughout history.
Shen Yi put the jade slip of the Lion Camel Technique back on the shelf.
To avoid attracting attention, he still held on to the remaining jade slip.
The attic was a bit cramped but also very quiet.
He chose another corner to sit down.
His situation was "fortunate," but in reality, it was only slightly better than that of the skeleton senior brother. After all, it had been less than a year since he had crossed over, and although he had seen much suffering, he couldn't say that he had a deep understanding of it all...
Compared to those officers of the Demon Suppression Division who had fought their way up from the bottom, he still had a long way to go.
But his advantage lay in time; as long as the path wasn't completely blocked, he would eventually get through.
Shen Yi looked at the panel.
【Remaining Demon Life Span: 74,803 years】
This senior brother probably had at most 2,000 to 3,000 years of life span, while he had more than twenty times that amount of time.
With the techniques in hand and ample resources, if he still couldn't break through, he might as well find a block of tofu and knock himself to death.
But before that...
"Senior Brother Skull, what does the first sentence of the Arhat Golden Body Technique mean?"
Shen Yi currently had an abundance of demon life span, but that didn't mean he should waste it. With a ready instructor before him, he naturally wanted to make use of the opportunity.
"..."
Senior Brother Zhu remained silent for a moment, confirming that this junior brother wasn't joking with him.
He stood up and dragged out a box of manuscripts from the corner, taking them out one by one and blowing off the dust.
Each manuscript had the same text copied over and over, the handwriting ranging from neat to sloppy, and towards the back, it even looked like scribbles.
Just from copying the Arhat Golden Body Technique, he didn't know how many times he had copied it. If he hadn't burned them after filling a box, the pile might have been enough to fill the entire Martial Temple.
He picked out the one with the clearest handwriting.
Sitting next to Shen Yi, he began to explain each word softly.
Shen Yi had average comprehension, but with the aid of his divine sense, his memory was exceptionally powerful.
Without trying to understand, he simply memorized it word for word.
He would leave the rest to his future self during his deductions.
...
"He's still not out?"
Several Yin Spirits drifted back and forth within the Martial Arsenal.
Occasionally, they would glance at the corner attic.
That Deputy Inspector, Shen Yi, had been inside for two or three days, and Zhu Shi had been staying inside as well.
"What does this mean?"
The few Yin Spirits whispered among themselves, although the answer was quite obvious.
They just found it hard to believe.
What else could they be doing in that small attic other than cultivating a golden body technique?
But—
The minimum requirement for cultivating a Golden Body technique was the Upper Realm Martial Immortal.
Shen Yi had only joined the Martial Temple for about a month, and more than twenty days of that had been spent on an inspection mission in Song State.
When did he have time to consume incense aspirations?
"Let me tell you something..."
The younger-looking Yin Spirit suddenly lowered his voice further: "The reason why Senior Brother Wu values Shen Yi so much is because he can instantly devour the aura of a golden body. This physique is just too suitable for cultivating a Yin Spirit."
"Tsk, the path you're on is even smoother than Zhu Shi's back then."
The other Yin Spirits shook their heads, unsure if they were praising or implying something else.
At the same time, inside the small attic, Senior Brother Zhu had finished explaining the entire Golden Body technique. He looked at Shen Yi with some confusion: "Junior Brother, why are you so quiet? Do you understand it all?"
"I have a habit of writing things down first and then pondering them alone."
Shen Yi bowed his hands in gratitude: "If I have any questions, I will come to Senior Brother for guidance."
If he had to figure it out on his own, it would take him at least a few dozen or even a hundred years of demon lifespan to understand this Golden Body technique... and it could possibly take even longer.
Senior Brother Skull stared blankly, but in reality, he was being extremely generous by imparting thousands of years of experience without holding anything back.
"Alright."
Senior Brother Zhu nodded and moved the skeleton frame next to Shen Yi. He bent the bone arm back a little to ensure it wouldn't disturb Shen Yi, then sat down.
Not mentioning the Golden Body technique again, he returned to his pensive state.
Shen Yi closed his eyes and held the Golden Wolf Jade Talisman in one hand.
Previously, he had felt that the remaining wisps of weak aspirations were insignificant, but after the earlier digestion, his perception changed.
If he could digest all of this, he might be considered to have entered the door of the Golden Body technique.
He mobilized the demon lifespan, channeling it into the Arhat Golden Body technique.
【In the first year, you perused this Exalted Divinity technique, comprehending what it means to transcend. Flesh and blood will eventually wither, but only a Golden Body is immortal. You now have some insights into this technique, and you need to slowly digest it.】
The experiences left by the predecessors were invaluable.
Especially in this situation of arduous cultivation without progress, one would want to dissect each word and stroke to understand it.
At this moment, the senior brother was imparting thousands of years of bitter cultivation experiences to Shen Yi.
Whenever he encountered an obstacle in his deductions.
He would pause and ask the senior brother next to him.
The situation was somewhat similar to the previous encounter with Jiang Qiuluan, but compared to that woman, Senior Brother Skull had clearly spent much more time and explained things in greater detail.
It was to the extent that Shen Yi could almost understand it.
【In the three hundred and seventy-seventh year, you will have thoroughly understood this technique and begun to initially attempt to enter its door. You mobilized a wisp of incense aspiration and savored it carefully.】
Condensing the intangible incense aspirations into a substantial Golden Body.
This process was somewhat similar to the method used by the Red-eyed Demon King back then.
But in reality, there was a significant difference.
Because the Demon King had condensed his aura into armor and weapons, but the Golden Body technique was meant to forge... a body to be used in the future.
When it was an external object, one didn't need to consider what it contained.
But a body filled with chaotic emotions—what Yin Spirit would dare to inhabit it? Eventually, it would lead to a proliferation of heart demons and madness.
【In the one thousand eight hundredth year, you have digested a lot of incense aspirations, and your mind is in extreme chaos. Your expression is sometimes ferocious and sometimes gentle...】
Shen Yi closed his eyes, pretending to be deep in thought.
Suddenly, his body twitched as a surge of intense emotions forcibly entered his mind.
He abruptly opened his eyes, and crimson mist swirled in his pupils.
The intent to kill was so thick that it almost materialized.
Shen Yi turned his head to look at the skeleton frame next to him: "..."
