Chapter 109: Chapter 104: Ten Thousand Dao Furnace Physique

Chen Family Village was exactly as it had always been. The sounds of chickens and dogs echoed through the air, full of life.

For over a month, Su Tan had been busy all day with the Divine War Game, leaving him no time to water the flowers and grass or feed the fish in his courtyard. Now that the war was over, he could finally return to a slow-paced life—quietly cooking a meal and cleaning his room. Su Tan slept soundly.

The next day.

Su Tan began tidying his room. The faint scent of orchids lingering in the air was exceptionally charming. It was late summer; once the orchids withered, summer would also come to an end. Having grown accustomed to this fragrance, he felt very comfortable.

"COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!"

A loud rooster crow awakened the dawn as the sun slowly climbed into the eastern sky, shining upon the western hills. It was warm. Gradually, the entire Chen Family Village was enveloped in sunlight. The sky was cloudless. With the chirping of birds, a flowing stream, small bridges, and quaint homes, it looked like a beautiful painting.

"SIZZLE!"

After finishing his cleaning, Su Tan began making breakfast. He took a bite—it tasted great. His cooking skills had improved significantly. He set the food out in the courtyard and savored it as usual. This was good. This was exactly the kind of life he wanted. Su Tan felt a deep sense of contentment. It was ordinary and perhaps uninteresting, but it brought him peace of mind.

Now that he was an administrator of the Void God Realm, he could log in at any time without restriction. If anything came up, the fatty would surely contact him. Therefore, Su Tan didn’t plan on visiting the Void God Realm for the time being. First, there was nothing pressing to do. Second, he wanted to give himself a vacation, trusting that the fatty could handle ordinary trivial matters. Third, his Qi Condensation Technique had fused with numerous Sacred Body Cultivation Techniques and the Body Refinement Chapters of other methods, elevating its quality once again. Su Tan wanted to use this time to focus on his own cultivation.

Furthermore, he had promised to teach Chen Xiaoqi how to cultivate months ago. Unfortunately, the boy was completely unable to practice the Overlord Body Map at the time. Su Tan had no choice but to have him exercise his physique using conventional methods and drink medicinal soup every day.

An ordinary life. Three or four days passed in a flash.

Once Yun Chu, Chen Xiaoqi, and the others learned that Su Tan had free time, they started visiting every day. After receiving treatment over this period, Yun Chu’s health had improved greatly, though a full recovery would likely still take some time. Over the past month or two, Su Tan had been incredibly busy optimizing and designing the Divine War Game with the fatty. He had only spared a very brief amount of time each day to transmit life force to Yun Chu, spending most of his time in the Void God Realm.

"You were in seclusion recently, sir. I’m sure you must have gained some new insights since coming out," Yun Chu said, making small talk.

"Mm, it was alright!"

After that, the two fell into silence once again. Although they had known each other for a while, neither seemed particularly good at conversing. They rarely spoke much, and when they did, it was usually just polite, empty chatter.

The transmission of life force was complete.

"Done," Su Tan said.

"Thank you, sir." Yun Chu opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but hesitated. "Then... Yun’Er will take her leave."

She really wanted to ask Su Tan some questions about cultivation, but she felt it would be inappropriate since they were neither family nor friends. She reasoned that his willingness to treat her illness was already a great favor; how could she extravagantly hope for him to guide her cultivation? She decided to drop the idea. Given his quiet and reserved demeanor, he probably wouldn’t appreciate her questions. It was better not to ask. If she ended up angering him, he might not only refuse to teach her but also stop treating her, which would do more harm than good.

In truth, Su Tan wasn’t nearly as stern as she imagined. It was entirely Yun Chu’s preconceived notion that painted him as a profound and aloof expert. As for Su Tan, whenever he tried to chat with her about other things, she was always overly cautious—like a schoolchild afraid of saying the wrong thing. Every word she spoke was rigidly polite, leaving him no room to strike up a casual conversation. Over time, they defaulted to simple greetings. Whenever something came up, they just got straight to the point.

"Okay!" Su Tan said.

Shortly after Yun Chu left, Chen Xiaoqi came over. This kid wasn’t afraid of Su Tan at all. Moreover, he was a chatterbox who babbled all day long. From the birth of a calf at his house to a hen laying an egg, to what a puppy by the roadside was doing on his way over... he would talk about every trivial thing under the sun. Su Tan was happy to listen. Even though it was a bit mundane, it was still better than sitting with Yun Chu, who was as quiet as a mouse.

"Su, are we going to cultivate the same way today?" Chen Xiaoqi asked.

"No, today I’ll teach you something else!" Su Tan said.

Having fused a massive amount of Sacred Body Cultivation Techniques in the Void God Realm, the Body Refinement Chapter of the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace had evolved once more. To Su Tan’s surprise, the Body Refinement Chapter had actually produced a Holy Body Map capable of cultivating a Sacred Body.

He had speculated about this before. Since the Dominator Body could be cultivated, it stood to reason that the Sacred Body could be as well. Therefore, when he chose Cultivation Techniques to fuse, he intentionally selected Sacred Body Cultivation Techniques. If it worked, great; if not, he would just see if he could continue improving the quality of the Overlord Body Map.

As a result, after Su Tan tossed a large number of Sacred Body Cultivation Techniques into the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace, eighteen new illustrations actually appeared. It was the Holy Body Map, a Technique that could cultivate a Sacred Body. It was exactly as he had envisioned.

However, the eighteen illustrations of the Holy Body Map did not exist in isolation, nor were they completely unrelated to the Dominator Body. After appearing, the Holy Body Map rapidly merged with the Overlord Body Map, forming eighteen brand-new illustrations—the Saint Dominating Body Map! It was a combination of the Sacred Body and the Dominator Body. In other words, as long as Su Tan mastered these eighteen illustrations, his physique would reach an even higher level—the Saint Dominator Body!

Su Tan suspected that his physique could undergo infinite transformations and infinite upgrades. The Dominator Body wasn’t the endpoint, and neither was the Saint Dominator Body.

This applied specifically to the profound principles of Body Refinement physiques. However, one couldn’t forget that when Su Tan upgraded the Qi Condensation Chapter of his technique, he had also awakened the Dao Body. Thus, Su Tan currently possessed three different bloodlines running through his body simultaneously: the Sacred Body, the Dominator Body, and the Dao Body. The three bloodlines merged together, forming an absolutely unique physique.

Su Tan didn’t even know what to call it. The Dao Dominating Sacred Body? The Saint Dominating Dao Body? The Saint Dao Dominator Body? In the end, he felt helpless. Since it was produced by the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace, he decided to just call it the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace Physique.

The enhancement of his physique was the foundation for Su Tan’s infinite cultivation. Therefore, no matter how many physiques were fused together, he didn’t care as long as they made him stronger. To him, it was all just one physique: the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace Physique. It was easy to understand, so there was no need to overcomplicate it. In essence, it was simply a single physique. No matter how many more things were fused or how complex it became, it was merely adding building blocks to the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace Physique.

This was Su Tan’s unique physique, born from the myriad of changes that occurred when he created the Ten Thousand Dao Furnace. It was a physique unparalleled in all of history. He was the only person to have ever developed it. In the future... it might also become the strongest of all special physiques. How far could this physique take him? How strong could it make him? Su Tan didn’t know.

Of course, none of this was the main point for today. The main point was that even though the Sacred Body, Dominator Body, and Dao Body were fused together, he could still extract the diagrams for each individual physique separately. It was like taking a test paper that contained literature, math, and English questions, and singling out only the English questions. That wasn’t difficult for him at all.

Su Tan could teach the extracted Holy Body Map to Chen Xiaoqi. The Sacred Body was a physique unique to humans, so it shouldn’t be a problem for Chen Xiaoqi to practice it... right?
