Chapter 803: Chapter 501: Body Refining Dao - The Starsea Lineage, Sitting Transformation and Reincarnation (Part 2)

"The twenty-fifth generation."

"It’s already been nearly five thousand years."

Five thousand years have not passed in vain.

Through Zhao Fu, Jiang Ming has learned that the Star Sea has made new advancements in the Heartbeat Realm.

The Celestial Pride of Longevity Immortal Mountain has improved the cultivation technique, greatly extending the lifespan of cultivators.

Cultivators in the Heartbeat Realm can now live to be two hundred years old.

Golden Core Cultivators can live to be over six hundred years old.

And there have been significant breakthroughs in the research of the Golden Core Realm.

Even before his passing, Zhao Fu heard that in the north of the Northern Domain, an Immortal Mountain seemed to have developed the prototype of the Artifact Refining Technique.

"Ancient Refining Technique..."

Future cultivators may think that the ancient refining technique is ancient and powerful.

But the cultivation civilization hasn’t really experienced any gaps.

There is no rule that says the older something is, the more powerful it is.

The impression that the ancient refining technique is powerful is mainly because of the abundant resources in the world at this time.

Spirit Wood, Extraordinary Spiritual Ore, they’re almost devalued.

Of course, that’s not the point.

The point is the Demon Cultivator!

Demon Kings in the Demon Body Realm are everywhere.

Unlike in later times, where having one Demon King in the Demon Body Realm appear in ten large-scale cultivation realms would be astonishing, and Demon Kings and Demon Emperors mostly stayed hidden in the Demon Realm.

At this time, Demon Kings want to devour the Human Race to take on form.

The Human Race can also hunt Demon Kings.

Then use their skin, bones, tendons, and scales for artifact refining.

This refining method is highly inefficient and relies entirely on the strength of the raw materials.

The purpose is just to replicate the bloodline divine power of the Demon King.

That’s why it’s called the Original Refining Technique.

Unlike the future, where the Artifact Refining Dao is vast and profound, seasoned Artifact Refiners can fuse several seemingly unrelated spiritual ores, forge artifact patterns, and transform them into powerful magical artifacts and artifacts.

In this current era, that is absolutely impossible.

The Alchemy Method follows the same principle.

At this time, the Alchemy Method is made by neutralizing the demon qi felt in the blood and flesh of the Demon Race with Spirit Grass.

The medicinal properties of Spirit Grass have undergone preliminary research.

Perhaps as long as there is an alchemist of Celestial Pride level, they can lead the Human Race in the Alchemy Dao.

[Twenty-sixth generation]

......

[Twenty-seventh generation]

......

[Twenty-ninth generation...]

Four generations have passed again.

The twenty-sixth generation was born in the Human Circle, far from the Star Sea.

No hope, dead!

The twenty-seventh generation was born in the Witch Clan Tribe, practicing the Star Sea correction method.

Got caught by a Demon King halfway through cultivation, dead!

The twenty-eighth became a Half-Witch.

And it was a rare Half-Witch with a special bloodline.

[You have gained talents: Earth Blood (2666) Messenger of the Gods (2000)]

Earth Blood: Your bloodline traces back to its origin, you possess the bloodline of the Ancestral Witch. If you are a pure-blooded Witch Race, your future is bright.

Messenger of the Gods: You have a natural affinity for divine beings.

...

The twenty-eighth generation lived relatively long.

Zhao Fu even became an assistant Witch Clan Priest as a Half-Witch...

In the future, if he performs well, he can receive the Witch Blood baptism and become a pure-blooded Witch Race!

Zhao Fu also experienced the combat methods of the Witch Race for the first time.

An even purer physical body than that of a martial artist, and they can release divine techniques using just their physical body.

Moreover, almost all Great Witches are immune to soul attacks.

Because they have no primordial spirit, the primordial spirit is shattered and integrated into their bloodline.

This special cultivation technique amazed Zhao Fu.

The cultivation system of the Witch Race is:

Witch Disciple, Witch, Spirit Witch, Witch King

Respectively corresponding to

Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation

What? You ask where Qi Refining went?

The Witch Race says that pure-blooded Witch Race is born quickly reaching the level of Witch Disciple, and there simply isn’t a realm corresponding to Qi Refining.

Above the Witch King is the legendary Great Witch and Ancestral Witch.

They are the existence that contends with the Great Saints of the Demon Race.

Zhao Fu in this generation almost reached the level of a Witch.

Then war broke out.

Parts of the Northern Domain and Eastern Domain forcibly seized a large territory that belonged to the Demon Race.

Between the Eastern Domain and Central Domain is the Star Sea in between.

The Star Sea became the best shield for the Witch Race.

The Demon Race was caught off guard.

Given a cold blow by the Witch Race, vast Demon Land in the Central Domain and even Western Realm became Witch Land.

The northern part of the continent saw a large-scale Witch-Demon war more significant than any small war before.

Which shook the entire continent.

Then Zhao Fu’s tribe was retaliated against by the Demon Race, driven to dire straits.

The Half-Witch Zhao Fu possessing Earth Blood became the best sacrifice.

They sacrificed Zhao Fu, gained the divine power of Houtu, and turned a defeat into victory.

As for Zhao Fu.

The Witch Race felt he died a worthy death.

He contributed to the entire Witch Race.

Only Jiang Ming wanted to curse.

He also wanted to see what the path beyond the Witch Race’s system was like.

Thus, the three generations combined didn’t even last two hundred years.

The twenty-ninth had decent aptitude.

And was born in a Demon Country near the Star Sea.

Zhao Fu luckily escaped.

Ended up being beaten to death by fishermen on the island due to having a trace of Demon Race bloodline that caused anomalies on the surface.

By rights.

With Zhao Fu’s experience over so many generations, even if he were a mortal, his combat ability would definitely not be poor.

But the problem is that there was actually a hidden Innate Grandmaster in the area.

This Innate Grandmaster appeared because the Martial Dao spread by Zhao Fu throughout the Star Sea caused a mundane wave of martial arts practice.

A group of Martial Artists without spirit roots was breaking through to become Innate Grandmasters.

Innate Grandmasters’ combat power wasn’t bad either, able to resist some demon beasts.

Hence, the Martial Dao was being vigorously promoted by the Star Sea Cultivators in parts closer to inland.

There was even a faint attempt to spread it into the Demon Country, allowing the trapped Human Race there to have the ability to escape.

So there was quite a trend of hunting demons in the folk.

Jiang Ming rubbed his forehead.

The fact proves that even an old monster who has lived for thousands of years can flip in the ditch.

"Turn the luck, turn the luck!"

Zhao Fu didn’t want to end the hundred cycles of reincarnation so soon.

Ancient cultivation compared to later generations is even still in its infancy.

[Thirtieth generation]

[You have gained talents: Dragon Race Affinity (3200) Fated to be Seductive (1888) Child of the Sea (1000)]

Dragon Race Affinity: You will have affinity with the Dragon Race, you may meet members of the Dragon Race, obtain secret treasures left by the Dragon Race, or observe the Dragon Race to create powerful cultivation techniques. Meanwhile, you have a faint Dragon Race protection on you, allowing you to escape a deadly calamity.

Child of the Sea: You are a child of the sea, the sea blesses you, and the probability of turning danger into safety increases while at sea, and marine creatures have increased initial favor towards you.

Jiang Ming was first delighted.

He had been unlucky often, and more than half of his reincarnations ended prematurely.

At this time, having a life-saving talent at least provided a base, allowing him to properly cultivate for another lifetime.

At the same time, having Dragon Race Affinity likely meant being in the Star Sea.

The North Crystal Dragon Palace and South Chen Dragon Palace in the Star Sea are alongside the Four Seas Dragon Palace.

And there are very few Human Race in the Four Seas; if there are, they are almost captive and rarely have connections with the Dragon Race.

Moreover, having the opportunity to rely on the Dragon Race for support would also be excellent.

Jiang Ming raised an eyebrow when he saw the other two talents.

With these two talents, he might be able to meet the Dragon Race Princess.

Perhaps becoming the Dragon Palace’s son-in-law?

That’s not off the table either!

Jiang Ming beamed with joy.

However... did he forget something...?

Jiang Ming’s face stiffened.

"Where’s the Spirit Root!"

"Where’s the Spirit Root!!!"

You could at least give me Five Spirit Roots.

Without a spirit root, how will I cultivate!

[You have awakened.]

[You skillfully understand the background of this life.]

[A not very luxurious wooden house, a mother with eyes full of love, and a dark, honest-looking father.]

[You sigh in relief.]

[You are finally born into the Star Sea Race as a normal person.]

[You instinctively try to gather the yet-to-disperse innate qi.]

[However, your heart sinks as you fail to sense any spirit root.]

[Without the pull of a spirit root, this innate qi slowly dissipates from your body.]

[Fortunately, among the countless martial arts you created, there’s one innate ability that allows transforming from Acquired to Innate.]

[You can also rely on it to gather innate qi.]

[In this way, if you mature normally, without illness or disaster, you will be among the longest-lived in the populace, living at least to eighty.]

[But... that’s all it is.]
