Chapter 489: Chapter 117: Promoted to Standard Eighth Grade! (Requesting Monthly Tickets!!)

Internal Affairs Office.

In the courtyard.

The old woman looked at Jiang Ning’s expression and immediately showed a look that suggested he was teachable.

Then, she spoke again.

"Body Refining’s outer refining steps involve a higher-level secret technique for Ninth Grade Skin Polishing."

"Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm does not have this uniqueness."

"As for the Seventh Grade Refining Muscle step, if there is anything to be mentioned, it would only be the Dragon Tendon."

"However, there are not a few external aids that can assist in achieving the Dragon Tendon among the Sects and various powers. The Inspection Office’s Dragon Ascending Pill can be considered one."

"Sixth Grade Bone Forging, the secret technique for this step is to cast the legendary Divine Bone."

"The importance of Divine Bone is no less significant than a golden body."

"If a Sixth Grade Martial Artist could forge a Divine Bone, not to mention being invincible among Sixth Graders, even those at the Peak of Fifth Grade would retreat three steps upon seeing it."

"A Fourth Grade holder of power would also suffer great headache."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but speak again.

"What if one possesses both a golden body and a Divine Bone?"

Upon hearing this, the old woman glanced at Jiang Ning.

"If one possesses both a golden body and a Divine Bone, even if they haven’t stepped into the inner refining of the five viscera and remain at the stage of outer refining, they could be called an invincible being, second only to a Grandmaster."

"One could bathe in a rain of arrows, and in a battlefield, if a Grandmaster does not make a move, then no one could kill him."

"And even if a Grandmaster makes a move..." The old woman hesitated for a moment, then continued, "it would still be difficult to kill him! The only way for a Grandmaster to kill such a Martial Artist refined to the utmost would be to shatter the viscera!"

After saying this, the old woman smiled.

"But realistically, if someone really could forge both Divine Bone and a golden body, they would receive a multitude of resources and quickly achieve success in inner refining, thus not allowing their viscera to be an obvious weak point."

"Moreover, with the rise in the Martial Arts Realm, the Divine Bone and golden body would transform further, becoming even more terrifying."

"Such individuals, in the Ancient Era, could counteract immortals at the Peak of First Grade, being beings of flesh and blood who were considered comparable to immortals and gods."

Hearing the last sentence from Granny Bai, Jiang Ning was visibly shaken.

"Comparable to immortals and gods?"

"Is that really achievable?"

The old woman glanced at Jiang Ning dismissively, "What’s there to doubt? In the Ancient Era, such deeds were already recorded."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning gasped.

Peak of First Grade, equating to immortals and gods with a Divine Bone and golden body.

What about Martial Saints then?

Thinking this, he quickly asked.

"Elder, if a Peak of First Grade with a Divine Bone and Golden Body can rival immortals and gods, what about Martial Saints?"

"Martial Saints?" The old woman chuckled, "In the Ancient Era, though not all immortals and gods vanished, Martial Saint had killed many residual immortals and minor gods."

"Residual immortals? Minor gods?" Jiang Ning looked surprised.

The old woman looked at Jiang Ning somewhat speechlessly, then, as if remembering something, patiently explained.

"There are distinctions between immortals, and differences among gods as well."

"The difference between weaker and stronger immortals is not less than the difference between a novice in Martial Arts and a Martial Saint."

"The same is true for gods!"

"The end of the Ancient Era entailed secrets too terrifying to comprehend. Hearing about them could instill great fears, and I also dare not delve too much."

"All you need to know is that the end of that era also marked the end for both immortals and gods, and it was a time of environmental change."

"Between the two eras’ transitions, like a net falling down, big fish had no escape, and only small fish and shrimp could wiggle through the gaps in the net."

"Due to the change in environmental conditions and the lack of spiritual energy, the path of immortality was cut off; immortals can no longer use their old divine skills, thus they’re called residual immortals."

"The incompleteness of the world is also an incompleteness of the immortals."

"Whereas godly beings, in such calamities, still had minor gods relying on the offerings to barely prolong their survival, not like those ancient Heavenly Gods who required no faith."

"These minor gods, sustained and corrupted by offerings, often fell to become Evil Gods."

"The founding of Great Xia, the establishment of a human realm, was not so simple and smooth."

"Martial Saint naturally also killed many; both immortals and gods were slain by Martial Saint."

"Peak of First Grade, in the Ancient Era, was the absolute pinnacle of Martial Arts, the ultimate point of Martial Arts."

"Forging Divine Bone and a golden body at the absolute pinnacle of Martial Arts could slay immortals and massacre gods, let alone a Martial Saint who advanced further from the pinnacle."

Wrapping up her long discourse, the old woman’s gaze once again lightly swept across Jiang Ning.

Her patience in explaining so much was indeed due to Jiang Ning repeatedly astonishing her.

She even began to doubt whether Jiang Ning was really Jiang Ning.

Because with the present resurgence of the environmental conditions, she was also aware, she was a direct beneficiary.

She also knew that during the Ancient Era’s calamity, no great wielder of divine power escaped, but some minor wielders did.

Some were also seeking reincarnation to cultivate another lifetime of Dao fruits.

Just like the most famous contemporary Daoist and Buddha’s Son.

To her knowledge, these were rare successful examples among minor wielders of divine power.

She now suspected Jiang Ning might be such an existence.

Otherwise, she might start to doubt her own life.

Yet, from Jiang Ning, she could not sense that kind of residual aura from the old days.

Thus, this speculation remained merely a guess.

...

At the same time.

Jiang Ning, hearing the old woman’s words, instantly knew that the so-called immortals and gods were not as powerful as portrayed.

Martial Arts was not as feeble as he had previously imagined.

Peak of First Grade, equating to Martial Arts’ pinnacle, if he were to forge a Divine Bone and golden body, creating the strongest human physique.

With the strength from Martial Arts’ ultimate pinnacle, he could match ordinary immortals and gods. freewёbnoνel.com
