Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 329 - 166: Mythical Creature, a Quota for Godseeing_3

"It's quite normal. This time, many powers have chosen to join forces. The Martial Arts Family faction has divided into two camps—one affiliated with the Six Great Families, while the other, I heard, has formed an alliance with several Grandmasters."

"Isn't it the same with the Five Business Alliances? This seed battle has already become a competition among various forces."

"Here they come, is that Ji Jingqiu?"

"Before his retreat, this person accepted more than a hundred challenges, ending all battles within three moves. Who knows what kind of improvements he's made after the retreat? He's simply a monster!"

"The Dragon Tiger Dojo has been in decline for so long, it's unexpected this generation has seized the opportunity to rise."

"With him in the Dojo faction, they're considered hot favorites to win the championship this time."

...

"Jingqiu!"

Ji Jingqiu and the others walked out of the spaceport, only to see Mu Juncheng, who had personally come to pick them up.

Compared to the last time they met, his aura had become significantly more profound; clearly, he had made no small improvements during this period.

"Wow, you feel much stronger, is this the strength of a Martial Arts Family's foundation?" Diao Xingyun muttered.

The others felt the same.

They had separated on their way to the East Three Bright Star less than a month ago, and Mu Juncheng's aura had visibly grown much stronger.

Though all of them had improved, their progress wasn't as noticeable as Mu Juncheng's.

Long Qingyang did not accompany them; as a Heavenly Human Martial Artist, the Mu Family had martial artists of equal status to receive him.

After splitting up at the spaceport, Mu Juncheng personally led everyone to their temporary residence.

"It's been a long time, Jingqiu!"

Mu Juncheng warmly greeted, the Third Elder had personally phoned him last night, instructing him to take good care of Ji Jingqiu.

"You'll stay with me these two days, and I'll fill you in on the situation of the Po Suo Half-plane. The half-plane will open the day after tomorrow morning. Everyone should adjust their condition these two days."

Mu Juncheng directly took everyone to a large courtyard.

After disembarking from the flying shuttle, they immediately saw a steep peak that soared into the clouds, its summit piercing into the sea of clouds, only dazzling starlight streaming down from the peak visible.

Ever since landing on this planet, Ji Jingqiu had a strange feeling.

As if he had returned to the Yanfu State!

The fundamental rules of this planet were much looser than the outside world; if he hadn't guessed wrong, this was probably the result of the Mu Family warriors' modifications over generations.

Yue Yourong took a deep breath and softly said, "The rumors are true. The Six Great Families don't need to go to the Four Guardian Stars; they can forge a Superior Cultivation Body right in their ancient homeland."

The crowd was solemn; they all understood what that implied.

"It's not that exaggerated," Mu Juncheng shook his head, "Indeed, there are areas on the Ancestor Star that can help forge superior cultivation bodies, but it's not possible to cover the entire planet. Moreover, the progress of cultivation is limited; ultimately, one would need to go to the Four Guardian Stars."

"I can feel a special force permeating the air," Shi Xinwan suddenly said seriously, her eyes shining, "Bathing in this environment for a long period will naturally make one's physique stronger than others."

She seemed to have a certain obsession with physique.

The others were not surprised; having known Shi Xinwan for a long time, they were aware that her greatest innate flaw was her physique.

Moreover, they all felt the mysterious power that Shi Xinwan mentioned nourishing their bodies.

Although it was very faint, as long as one resided for a long time, those minor effects could accumulate and lead to a transformation.

Ji Jingqiu, on the other hand, didn't feel anything special; the nourishment this power provided to his physique was barely worth mentioning.

"Mu, I heard that the ancestral lands of your Six Great Families are home to many Mythical Creatures. Is that true or false?" Yue Yourong asked.

"Mythical Creatures?" Ji Jingqiu asked curiously.

"Don't you know, Jingqiu?" Yue Yourong seemed surprised, "Haven't you ever visited the Dragon Tiger Dojo's main base? Your Dragon Tiger Dojo also raises many exotic tigers and flood dragons. In terms of foundation, your dojo is the most profound among the dojo faction."

Yin Wushuang nodded in agreement:

"Indeed, I've heard of it too. When a Grandmaster paves the Dao to the end, they can create and evolve a complete Inner Heaven and Earth, also known as a Divine Country, where ordinary beasts are nurtured. Over time, they might gain a touch of divinity, embark on a path of ancestral return, or evolution."

"Some with a high degree of evolution are bestowed the name of Mythical Creatures, possessing strength at least at the level of the Divine Travel Realm. However, such situations are rare and happenstance."

Mu Juncheng continued, "To be precise, currently only the Six Great Families in the Federation are raising so-called divine creatures. Moreover, the Po Suo Half-plane we are heading to this time also harbors many divine creatures."

"Divine creatures..." Ji Jingqiu muttered under his breath. His Innate Divine Power needed nurturing from divine substances.

And divine substances can be extracted from divine creatures.

The "Divine Remains" he had recently acquired from the Qingyang Ancestor Master were obtained from divine creatures.

"Don't just stand outside, come on in. Find yourselves a room to rest at your leisure. I have some matters to attend to, but I'll come back to find you later."

After greeting everyone, Mu Juncheng hurried off.

The group didn't stand on ceremony either; they entered the courtyard and directly into the house where attendants were waiting to assign rooms to each person.

Not long after Ji Jingqiu entered his room, someone knocked on his door.

It was Shi Xinwan.

The girl in red smiled brightly, "Jingqiu, do you mind if I come in and sit down?"

"Please come in."

Ji Jingqiu stepped aside to make room for her.

Shi Xinwan walked around the room and stopped at the large floor-to-ceiling window, taking in the distant mountains and forests.

"Would you like something to drink?" Ji Jingqiu rummaged around the house.

"No need to drink, let's cut to the chase!" Shi Xinwan clenched her fist and swung it, "Jingqiu, I want to make a trade with you!"

"A trade? What kind of trade?" Ji Jingqiu turned and asked.

"Do you have a special body refining secret method?" Shi Xinwan spoke each word distinctly, very seriously, "I want to trade a special nomination for this secret technique. I am innately deficient, and if I don't elevate my physical body to a certain level, my attempt to Reverse Innate could lead to life-threatening dangers."

Ji Jingqiu's gaze sharpened.

He knew this girl had a physical deficiency, but he hadn't realized it was this serious.

Regarding Shi Xinwan, he had always thought highly of her ever since the melee called by Mu Juncheng, where the girl had finally displayed her Fist Intent and extraordinary presence.

At that time, Shi Xinwan had only attained a small achievement in her cultivation body, yet with a single punch, she had drawn upon the Dharma and broke conventions.

"There should be many body refinement secret methods, right?" Ji Jingqiu asked, "Your teacher is a Grandmaster, can't he get hold of top-notch body refining methods?"

Shi Xinwan replied softly:

"I have already tried one hundred and twenty-seven different body refining methods, but none of them have helped me."

"The reason I'm asking you is that you managed to create a nascent dojo within the True Seed, which proves you have a non-human physique. This isn't something that can be explained merely by having an Innate Martial Bone; therefore, I speculate you might possess a special body refining secret method. I don't know if it will work, but I want to give it a try."

Ji Jingqiu nodded his head, contemplating.

The key to his body refinement lied in pairing the Ten Thousand Ancient Blade with Knife Carving and Axe Chiseling.

The former was widely known and indisputable.

As for the latter, although rare, it wasn't exclusive.

The Wilderness Sect had wanted to trade this secret technique with him before.

Ji Jingqiu said, "I indeed have a secret method that can sculpt the Divine Form within the body, and it's of a high grade. What would you like to trade for it?"

Shi Xinwan replied with determination, "Have you heard of [Master Meng Pingchuan]?"

Ji Jingqiu hesitated, "Are you referring to the Supreme Grandmaster who is known as the first to emerge after the Seven Marshals in the Federation's history?"

"Yes! This Grandmaster, like you, wielded a blade. He has a former residence that contains innumerable Sword Intents and is a heaven for all blade users. You have already proven yourself Innate in your Taoist Body, but your martial arts have yet to reach Godseeing."

"Reaching the God-Seeing Realm in martial arts requires not just talent but also considerable accumulation. You possess extremely high talent and have made Divine Speed progress, but your only flaw is the short time you've been practicing martial arts."

"If you can stay at Master Meng Pingchuan's former residence for secluded cultivation, you are highly likely to directly reach the God-Seeing Realm."

Shi Xinwan said softly,

"My teacher helped me secure a nomination, and I would like to trade it with you."
