Chapter 594: Chapter 237: Body Refining Manual

The villagers who had been listening to the exchange between Elder Qi and Xu Binghu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Xu Binghu’s willingness to teach the Body Refining Manual.

Just as everyone let out a sigh of relief, Xu Ran spoke up, ”Grandpa Qi, are you saying you want to distribute this manual to every household in the village?”

The sound of Xu Ran’s voice caused the smiles on everyone’s faces to freeze.

What does this mean?

Could it be that he’s unwilling?

If Xu Binghu is willing but Xu Ran is not, then indeed, there is nothing they can do.

During the recent battle at the village gate and ancestral hall, everyone witnessed that Xu Ran’s power far exceeded that of his father, Xu Binghu.

If he doesn’t want to, no one can force him to hand it over.

”Xiao Ran, do you have any concerns?” Elder Qi cautiously asked.

Both Xu Binghu and Lian Ji were also quite puzzled.

Seeing the curious expressions of the crowd, Xu Ran quickly explained, ”It’s like this, Grandpa Qi. This manual states that the minimum requirement for body refining is to have a power of 500 pounds by the age of twenty-five, right?”

”That’s correct,” Elder Qi’s face was full of regret.

He couldn’t achieve the requirement, which is why he couldn’t refine his body. This requirement is extremely difficult to meet in the Great Wilderness Border Village; in thirty years, only Xu Binghu and Xu Ran’s father and son have managed to meet it.

”Xiao Ran, just tell everyone directly. We can handle it,” Elder Qi thought Xu Ran wanted to say they lacked talent.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ran’s next words ignited their inner hopes.

”Grandpa Qi, during this time, I’ve carefully studied this Body Refining Manual and developed a new method for body refining that doesn’t require reaching 500 pounds of power and has no age limit.”

”What!!!”

Upon hearing this, Elder Qi jumped up and lifted Xu Ran high, ”Xiao Ran, say it again?”

Above everyone’s gaze, Xu Ran reiterated, ”I said, I’ve optimized the body refining method to allow anyone, at any age, to refine their body without any power requirements!!!”

With these words, everyone fell into silence, eyes widened as they looked at Xu Ran like he was a savior.

It’s no wonder; Xu Ran’s words were simply too shocking.

The villagers had just learned about the existence of body refining from Elder Qi, as well as the cultivation system that surpasses normal humans. This made the already ambitious young people aspire even more, but the age limit of twenty-five and the power requirement of 500 pounds made them hesitate.

It was like going from heaven to hell.

In fact, besides Xu Ran and Xu Binghu, no one present could meet this requirement.

Elder Qi wanted to popularize the Body Refining Manual for the sake of the next generation.

But now, Xu Ran said that everyone present could practice body refining, regardless of power or age.

This result was as if they had returned from hell to heaven.

These continuous reversals were unbearable even for the most mature and composed individuals.

Xu Binghu, observing the crowd’s obsession with Xu Ran, asked again, ”Xiao Ran, is what you said true?”

Xu Ran nodded, ”Of course it’s true. If I could improve the Seven-leafed One-flowered Plant before, why wouldn’t I be able to enhance the Body Refining Manual now?”

Xu Ran’s words were filled with confidence, and indeed, his confidence came from his abilities.

After a long pause, Elder Qi finally reacted excitedly, ”Xiao Ran, if what you say is true, then you can release the Body Refining Manual whenever you want—whether it’s a year, two years, or even three years!!”

Elder Qi knew that Xu Ran’s action would bring about significant changes to the Great Wilderness Border Village. In time, everyone could become a body refiner with a thousand pounds of strength, and those with better talent might even advance to the Qi Refining Stage.

The nearby villagers echoed,

”Yes, Xiao Ran, whenever you finish perfecting it, just release it.”

”We’re not in a hurry.”

”Xiao Ran, take your time perfecting it; there’s no need to rush.”

...

Though the villagers claimed not to be in a hurry, their expressions showed that they wished to receive the improved Body Refining Manual from Xu Ran the very next second.

”It won’t take that long,” Xu Ran waved his hand, ”Just three days, and it will be done.”

”Three days!!!!”

”Haha, in three days, in three days, I’ll have infinite power.”

”After three days of body refining, I might just be able to lift the 500-pound boulder in the village’s open space.”

”In three days, I’ll become the strongest person in the Great Wilderness Border Village, aside from Xiao Ran and Binghu!!!”

...

Some young men were already fantasizing about the events to come, something fitting for their age to do.

Xu Ran watched the excited crowd and gestured for them to calm down.

”Everyone, calm down for a moment. Although my improved body refining method has no restrictions, the first time you refine your body, you need the heart blood of a Demon Beast.”

These words once again plunged the crowd into silence.

As they were now, not to mention Demon Beasts, they couldn’t even hunt some of the more ferocious animals. So how would they obtain Demon Beast Heart Blood?

In the Great Wilderness Border Village, only Xu Ran, Xu Binghu, and the Peregrine Falcons raised by the Xu Family had the capability.

Surely, after Xu Ran improved the manual, he couldn’t also be the one to hunt the Demon Beasts, could he?

Suddenly, everyone’s expressions turned despondent.

”Don’t worry, everyone,” Xu Ran brought them back to reality, ”Demon Beast Heart Blood, we didn’t have it before, but now it’s plentiful!”
