Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

138: The Purple Mansion Cave Enlightenment SutraA faint red glow covered the surface of the cave. The Master of Jinyu Pavilion looked towards the source of the light, and a fiery red color filled his eyes.

His eyes flickered. Magma?

No, it’s an illusion! Yan Valley?! This is Yan Valley!

Understanding dawned in his eyes. No wonder he searched for so long and couldn’t find the location of the Qin Family’s secret treasure. It turns out it was hidden here!

Thinking of this, he felt a bit annoyed, not expecting that the Qin Family’s secret treasure had been hidden right under his nose for so many years!

Looking around, he gazed at the high platform. He knew that was where the Eight Transformations Golden Statue Skill should have originally been placed.

But now, there was nothing left.

King Huai slightly raised his hand, and specks of shimmering blue light appeared, gradually gathering in his palm.

A moment later, a translucent book appeared in his hand.

With a wave of his hand, the book transformed into scattered points of light, forming a suspended text.

”This... this is the Eight Transformations Golden Statue Skill!”

The Master of Jinyu Pavilion said in shock, his gaze shifting back and forth between the glowing text and King Huai.

Such a method... Your Highness’s strength...

King Huai lightly tapped his finger, then gently swiped, and several places in the Cultivation Technique were individually marked, with annotations beside them indicating the flaws.

”Don’t disappoint me,” he said softly.

The Master of Jinyu Pavilion’s eyes gleamed with excitement. Everything King Huai had done was enough to increase his chances of victory against the Sect Leader of Changshou by thirty percent!

”Yes, Your Highness!”

A few days later, the Qin Family residence.

Qin Jiang lay back in the courtyard, while Xu Yanran gently massaged his temples.

This courtyard was arranged by Qin Hong. Now that Qin Jiang was married, it was natural for him to have a residence.

”Husband, when do you plan to go to Yuanzhou Prefecture?” Xu Yanran asked.

Qin Jiang opened his eyes. ”No rush. I’ll rest for a few days before setting off.”

He had already sent people to collect antiques and old items; a few more days wouldn’t make a difference.

”Come with me when the time comes,” he said.

Xu Yanran nodded and smiled. ”Of course. This time, you won’t get rid of me.”

It wasn’t just because of Qin Jiang; she had originally planned to try developing towards the Prefecture City after establishing herself in Ningan.

After all, settling in a remote corner was not her personality.

Now, with Qin Jiang’s prestige in Ningan, she was no longer needed; systematic development was sufficient.

She didn’t need to worry about her father’s side either; no one would be foolish enough to cause trouble.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Footsteps sounded as Qin Hong led Long An into the courtyard.

”Fourth Master!” Long An shouted.

Qin Jiang slightly propped himself up. ”What’s wrong? So urgent?”

Long An walked closer, grinning broadly. ”Nothing! The Family Head asked me to summarize some recent matters and give them to you.”

Saying that, he handed a booklet to Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang took the booklet and flipped through it. Besides the remnants of the Liu Family and Si Family, many others had been rooted out, all elite individuals from various industries.

When he reached the end, his eyes curved slightly. Fengyi Pavilion is gone? Wouldn’t Third Senior Brother be sad?

”Is there anything else?” He closed the booklet and asked.

Long An chuckled upon hearing this. ”There’s one more thing. Third Master asked me to pass it on to you. He said he reopened a brothel in the original location of Fengyi Pavilion, and it has 30,000 taels of silver that you invested.”

Qin Jiang nodded slightly. Hmm?

He looked up at Long An, who had already fled out of the courtyard as if escaping.

Xu Yanran’s hands gently rested on his shoulders, massaging them, and wisps of Azure Fire floated about. ”Husband’s business acumen is quite good, isn’t it?”

”Ah, really? Hahahahaha...”

Three days later, Ancient Dragon Pavilion.

Qin Jiang put down the bronze fragments in his hand, his gaze falling on the panel.

【Current Martial arts】

It must be said that compared to the Ancient Yu Dynasty ruins, the potential points contained in the antiques and old items he collected were still fewer.

However, the Ancient Yu Dynasty ruins were extremely rare. In the past few days, he hadn’t failed to collect some maps of Ancient Yu Dynasty ruins.

But after searching, they were either already ruins or the locations marked on the maps were completely fake.

”Fourth Master, everything that could be collected in a short time is basically here. For the rest, it will take time to slowly gather,” said the shopkeeper, Li Sheng.

”Not bad. Prepare a quiet room for me,” Qin Jiang said.

”Alright, Fourth Master, please wait.”

A moment later, Qin Jiang was led by Li Sheng to a quiet room.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, his gaze fell on the panel.

【Detected that ’Huang Ting Shang Hua True Scripture’ has reached the limit of Martial arts. Do you want to consume 3000 Potential Points to deduce?】

”Yes,” he silently chanted in his heart.

【Deducing... Deduction completed.】

Buzz~~

With a hum, a purple light erupted from Qin Jiang’s glabella, then transformed into a stream of Qi that rotated around him.

A moment later, Qin Jiang slowly opened his eyes, a hint of purple flashing and disappearing.

The Purple Mansion Cave Illumination Scripture, another high-level secret Martial arts with eight layers, its grade probably not inferior to the Eight Transformations Golden Statue Skill.

Looking around, in a vision only he could see, wisps of thin purple Qi were continuously entering his body.

Is this Innate Purple Qi?

A substance recorded as being related to True God.

Carefully sensing his own body, the feeling of the Bottleneck gradually receded with the influx of purple Qi, and his Physical Body was becoming stronger.

This meant that even if he didn’t go to Yuanzhou Prefecture City, he could still improve his strength without Divine Martial.

Judging by this, the Purple Mansion Cave Illumination Scripture was not just not inferior to the Eight Transformations Golden Statue Skill; it was probably not much worse than the God-Demon True Scripture.

Without hesitation, he poured the remaining potential points into the Purple Mansion Cave Illumination Scripture.

Swish!

A torrent of purple Qi appeared in the Void Realm, pouring into Qin Jiang’s body from his glabella. The purple light stream rapidly danced around him, gradually filling upwards from his cross-legged position.

A moment later, his body was enveloped in purple light, forming a half-human-tall light cocoon.

”Crack,” ”Crack,” ”Crack”

Crisp sounds emanated, and cracks appeared on the light cocoon.

”Bang”!

With a crisp sound, the light cocoon exploded, transforming into a sky full of purpleFluorescence, and Qin Jiang’s body slowly ascended. A thin purple line appeared on his glabella.

Hoo~

After a few breaths, he slowly exhaled a breath of purple Qi, and his figure landed on the ground. However, the thin purple line on his glabella did not disappear.

He slightly clenched his fist, and an indescribable sense of comfort came from all parts of his body, making him unable to help but smile.

Compared to before, his Physical Body had not only improved—no, saying it improved is not precise enough; it should be said that it sublimated.

If before he could only see the source Qi flowing between heaven and earth, now he could clearly see deeper things.

”Crack!”

He extended his fingers, and a tiny spatialcrack appeared.

Now, he no longer needed to rely on brute force to shatter space; a casual movement was enough to cleave space by following the Laws of heaven and earth.

It could be said that his Physical Body had reached an incredible level!

At least, the Divine Martial Realm he knew did not possess such an ability.

This was not something one possessed after Martial Dao reached a certain profound level; it was more like an Innate talent originating from the Physical Body.

After pondering for a moment, he couldn’t quite put it into words, so he simply stopped thinking about it. If there was an opportunity in the future, he could look up some strange tales and secret records; perhaps he could find some relevant accounts.

His gaze turned to the window, in the direction of Yuanzhou Prefecture City.

With matters here concluded, it was time to depart.

Ugh, two chapters today. Writer’s block is too painful. Sitting in front of the computer, I feel like a blockhead.
