Chapter 1123: Chapter 326: The Pure Martial Path Broken, Beyond Martial Saint, Titled Dragon King Gouzi’s Feast [Monthly Ticket Requested]
“If it can help with your Divine Sculpture Skill, then it’s good. If you could attain the Dao and become a Divine Sculpture Master… it would truly be an honor for our Qian Yuan Divine Sect, making us more competitive among the Divine Sects of the Great Vista Eleven Paths.”
Fang Hanshu said alongside a smile.
“Elder Li, what would you like to inquire about?”
Fang Hanshu asked.
Li Che got serious: “I have made a small breakthrough in the Martial Path recently and have taken quite an interest in Pure Martial. I have heard that the Great Elder is well-read, so I would like to inquire about information related to Pure Martial.”
“Or perhaps you could recommend some books on Pure Martial for me…”
Li Che’s words left Fang Hanshu slightly stunned.
“Pure Martial?”
“Why would Elder Li suddenly be interested in understanding Pure Martial?”
Fang Hanshu sat on the bamboo chair, took a sip of hot tea, and smiled: “Pure Martial… has actually declined.”
“Nowadays, the number of Pure Martial Warriors probably can be counted on one hand.”
“To practice Pure Martial, there are too many restrictions. You must completely forsake Divinity, use the ancient methods, tempering the body, nurturing Qi-Blood, igniting the Three Flowers, and strengthening the Essence…”
“Difficult, difficult, difficult…”
“Among the Divine Sects of the Qian Yuan Eleven Paths, perhaps only the True Martial Divine Sect of the Tongyou Road might still maintain the lineage of the Pure Martial Path. However, even most of the True Martial Divine Sect resorts to using Divinity to temper the body and enhance martial cultivation speed.”
Fang Hanshu sighed as he spoke.
“The decline of Pure Martial is caused by the great trend and torrent, with the emergence of the Mysterious Temple, Divinity sweeps and merges with the world like a sea, Pure Martial Warriors have short lifespans, the cultivation is long, and it also leads to hidden injuries all over the body. How can it compare to the Divine Martial that borrows Divinity to temper the body.”
Li Che also fell into silence upon hearing this.
The days of Pure Martial are indeed harder than imagined.
However, now Li Che, with the help of the Dao Guide, vaguely shows a trend towards transforming into Pure Martial.
The current Pure Martial body has almost completed nearly ninety percent of its purification.
Li Che can also feel the advantages of Pure Martial, more solid in foundation compared to Divine Martial, more robust in strength, and the martial killing is also more fierce!
Divine Martial, after all, is connected with Divinity, ultimately lacking a bit of the taste of iron and blood.
Fang Hanshu looked at Li Che, though he didn’t know why Li Che suddenly inquired about Pure Martial. After all, although Li Che practiced Martial Path, it’s impossible for him to be of Pure Martial, as Fang Hanshu had reviewed all of Li Che’s records.
In fact, in the current world environment, without the inheritance of Pure Martial, it’s fundamentally impossible to cultivate pure Pure Martial.
Fang Hanshu stroked his beautiful beard: “Of course, the biggest problem of Pure Martial… is not that point.”
“Although Pure Martial is slow in cultivation speed, conditions are harsh, the difficulty is great, and life span is short…”
“But it is not impossible to overcome and persevere, after all, there will always be some people who hold a heart full of love.”
Fang Hanshu looked at the flying white snow and the icy world, lightly exhaled: “The biggest problem of Pure Martial is… the path is broken.”
The voice carried a bit of lament, a touch of melancholy.
After Fang Hanshu finished speaking, Li Che’s body trembled fiercely.
“Great Elder… what does it mean that the path is broken?”
“Divine cultivation, Divine Embryo Fourth Divine Transformation… After the Fetus Head God Transformation, one can sense the Dao Yun, capture the Dao Yun to strike at the Divine Tribulation.”
“Whereas in the current Martial Path, after the Martial Saint Four Transformations ascend to the peak of the Martial Arts Path, opening the Heavenly Gate, there is a tremendous outpouring of Divinity. The massive Divinity accrued in the Heavenly Gate can help a top-level Peak Martial Saint achieve tempering and transformation, enter the Dao by martial arts, capture the Dao Yun, and attain the Dao… Divine Martial.”
“Of course… you could also call it Martial God. In fact, Pure Martial has no Martial God Realm, among all the classics, the highest realm of Pure Martial Warriors… is only Martial Saint.”
“Martial God, indeed, like the Divine Tribulation, both grasp the Dao Yun, essentially, there isn’t much difference.”
“Both need to master the Dao Yun and provoke the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations summoned by angering the heavens, only that Martial God leans towards strengthening the physical body, whereas Divine Tribulation is stronger in the Heaven and Earth Soul and Technique aspects.”
Fang Hanshu spoke slowly, without hiding anything, explaining to Li Che the realm above the Martial Saint, the Martial God.
“So… the Great Elder’s words about the Pure Martial path being broken, is it because Pure Martial… reaches only the Martial Saint at its highest?”
Li Che asked with furrowed brows.
Fang Hanshu stroked his beard, lightly laughing: “It can be understood as such, but the main reason… is that Pure Martial cannot sense the Dao Yun.”
“Without Dao Yun… how can one become a Martial God?”
Li Che was slightly stunned.
Hearing Fang Hanshu’s words felt like the grand toll of a bell, exploding in his ears, deafening, resounding endlessly.
Pure Martial…cannot perceive Dao Yun?!
No, that’s not right…
His Pure Martial body has been purified to 85%, the Heavenly Person Sensing has become more acute, clearly sensing the strands of smoke floating between heaven and earth… that is…
Dao Yun!
Why would Fang Hanshu say that Pure Martial cannot sense Dao Yun?
“Can Pure Martial truly not sense Dao Yun?” Li Che took a deep breath, asked in confusion.
Fang Hanshu glanced at Li Che, seemingly puzzled why Li Che was fixated on this point.
He has read extensively, well-versed and knowledgeable, achieved the third place of the Imperial Examination… could it really be that he would make things up to boast with you?
“In the True Martial Divine Sect’s ancient text ’Heavenly Broken Pure Martial’, it is recorded, I was fortunate enough to peruse it, and there is a clear record with annotations from the Divine Sect Ancestor of the True Martial Sect.”
“Regret! Regret! Regret! The path of Pure Martial is broken, human power cannot overcome the heavens! Pure Martial lacks Dao Yun, where does the path lead? Where does it lead?”
“This was the final words of the True Martial Divine Sect’s Ancestor.”
Fang Hanshu explained, also revealing the origin of the ancient text.
“The path of Pure Martial is broken, human power cannot overcome the heavens…”
Li Che’s eyes focused.
