Chapter 802: Chapter 501: Body Refining Dao—Stellar Lineage, Nirvana and Reincarnation

[Martial cultivation has been integrated into the cultivation system.]

[The most direct impact it has brought to the cultivation system is in the aspect of physical close combat.]

The cultivation system has integrated the Demon Race’s demon skills and the Witch Race’s body refining cultivation methods.

However, the ancient cultivation path was far from having the multitude of techniques available in later generations, as numerous as grains of sand in the desert.

The path of cultivation transformed demon skills into magic.

Using the Witch Race’s body refining technique to strengthen the physique.

A powerful physique can accommodate more True Essence.

But it is merely a cultivation technique.

Most combat techniques of the Witch Race rely on a powerful physique in combination with Great Witch Bloodline combat techniques.

Among the Human Race, only very few half-witch descendants possess Witch Race bloodline, capable of performing bloodline combat techniques.

Therefore, cultivators can only learn from the Witch Race’s body refining techniques.

Yet they do not have corresponding combat techniques.

At this time, ancient cultivators were renowned for their Sword Dao.

[Various martial arts divine techniques have been refined and integrated into the path of cultivation.]

[Becoming a significant close combat technique in the body cultivation path.]

[Although not yet mainstream, it greatly enhanced the cultivator’s use of power.]

[In the Star Sea and Celestial Essence Realm, some suitable candidates for practicing the body cultivation path have even been discovered.]

[Strong individuals in the Celestial Essence Realm witnessed the power of the Upper Realm.]

[Some of them converted to the cultivation system, while some continued to innovate on the path of martial cultivation.]

[However, at this time, they have a new name: Body Cultivators.]

[Celestial Essence Realm became the sixth domain among the five domains of eastern, southern, western, northern, and central regions of Star Sea, yet due to the world’s resource disparity, the Celestial Essence Realm mostly became a retreat for cultivators from Star Sea.]

After all, the Celestial Essence Realm is not even a Blessed Land.

While Star Sea is a Treasure Land in the Great Thousand Worlds.

[Meanwhile, the good living environment in Celestial Essence Realm can breed more population.]

[You established the first Federation of Celestial Essence, promoting various grains obtained from Star Sea.]

[The Celestial Essence Realm’s population underwent explosive growth.]

[You reformed legislation, improved public security, increased welfare.]

[All the restless martial cultivators with martial arts dreams were sent by you to Celestial Essence Realm to practice and to combat the Demon Race.]

[You established the Celestial Martial Pavilion, collecting nearly all martial arts techniques of the living in the Celestial Essence Realm.]

[Meanwhile, numerous non-direct cultivation techniques from various immortal mountains were also accepted.]

[Five Celestial Humans almost all stayed behind, wanting to use these techniques to deduce the path beyond martial arts.]

[Celestial Humans breakthrough, their Martial Dao will already resembles an immortal star, hard to extinguish, cultivation is good, but it is not their path.]

[Star Sea also sent cultivation theory masters in rotation to discuss with grandmasters in Celestial Essence Realm.]

[Celestial Essence Realm also became an experimental base for expanding another direction of cultivation for Star Sea cultivators.]

[You traveled through Star Sea, collecting martial arts from the mundane world.]

[You secluded yourself for a hundred years at the Celestial Martial Pavilion.]

[You disseminated the seventy-two styles of Star Refining Body.]

[You researched body refining techniques in Celestial Essence Realm.]

[You engaged in battles throughout Star Sea.]

[With a powerful physique, you always charged at the forefront, slaughtering numerous strong enemies.]

[At the age of seven hundred, you killed ninety-one Demon Kings of the Demon Body Realm over the past years, with outstanding achievements.]

[Meanwhile, the seventy-two styles of Star Refining Body you spread in Star Sea allowed some cultivators who excelled in body refining rather than Sword Dao magic to be reborn.]

[They collectively revered you as the Ancestor Master.]

[You seemed to possess a status akin to a Nascent Soul Ancestor Master.]

[People called your lineage the Star Refining Body Dao.]

[However, after pursuing for several hundred years, you still had no possibility of becoming a Nascent Soul.]

[You introspected yourself, revisiting martial arts.]

[You discovered there might be issues with your Martial Arts Three Divine Techniques.]

Golden Core Nascent Soul Theory was proposed by astonishingly talented predecessors in Star Sea long ago.

Their names were erased in the endless years, yet successors constantly supplemented it.

The most important point among them is.

In mainstream perspectives, it is believed that Nascent Souls are still nurtured by Golden Cores.

Golden Core is the ultimate evolution of a cultivator’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit, the condensation of a Golden Core Master’s Dao Fruit.

However, Martial Arts Three Divine Techniques is not like this.

The Essence, Qi, and Spirit in Martial Arts Three Divine Techniques are relatively dispersed.

Even using Martial Dao will to blend with spiritual power, opening up a thing called Martial Arts Primordial Spirit.

This results in the Essence, Qi, and Spirit not entirely condensing in the Golden Core.

Golden Core is equivalent to the condensation of True Essence in martial cultivation.

It’s vastly different from the theory of Golden Core Nascent Soul.

[You no longer attempt to break through to Nascent Soul.]

[You devote all your energy to deducing cultivation body refining Dao.]

[At eight hundred, you passed away sitting on Celestial Dome Mountain in Celestial Essence Realm.]

[At the moment of passing, you comprehended Sword Dao between life and death.]

[Although you died, your Divine Soul scattered, your body moved on its own, carving a sword mark on Celestial Jade Mountain.]

[After your death, your body remained uncorrupted for a thousand years.]

[The sword mark you left became Celestial Essence Realm’s greatest cultivation treasure land, inspiring countless sword cultivators who gained insight from the sword mark you carved.]

[You attained Reincarnation Achievement: Dragon Race]

[You gained a trace of Dragon Race Qi Fortune, increasing the probability of gaining Dragon Race-related talents upon reincarnation.]

The twenty-fifth life ended.

Jiang Ming calculated.

Twenty-five reincarnation simulations.

Became a half-demon in the Demon Body Realm twice, corresponding to fire and earth respectively.

Became a Golden Core Master twice, mainly practicing water and fire.

This Celestial Human Realm in the end had vaguely accumulated beyond the Golden Core.

If the life span was sufficient, perhaps Zhao Fu could really make further progress.

Nevertheless, martial arts ultimately are not the mainstream in Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
