Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

178: ”The Record of Eternal Peace” and ”The Overlord Fuding Technique”“Creak~”

Qin Jiang’s palm gently caressed the door, and he slowly opened his eyes; within them, a golden hall seemed to collapse, and words formed from divine light flashed and disappeared.

“King Qin?” the Immortal Ancestor’s voice echoed beside him.

Qin Jiang regained his senses and looked around. One of his feet had just stepped into the small house, with half of his body still outside.

“Nothing, I just met with the First Ancestor of the Xia Emperor,” he said.

The Immortal Ancestor outside the house was stunned. “You met with the First Ancestor of the Xia Emperor? What do you mean?”

Xia Yu had long passed away; how could one meet him?

Suddenly, it was as if he remembered something, and his eyes trembled violently. “You mean the person he saw that day was you?!”

Back when the Ten Thousand Generations Hall was still active, Xia Yu had traversed time, observing ancient and modern eras. Finally, he even saw through the future, stating that he had met an interesting person.

Could it be that the person he saw that day was Qin Jiang?!

Qin Jiang nodded slightly. “Most likely. It’s just a pity I couldn’t have a long chat with him.”

The Immortal Ancestor’s expression became somewhat forlorn upon hearing this. “So he had already seen the future of the Xia Kingdom, which is why he ascended so resolutely.”

Qin Jiang walked into the house, looking around. It was dilapidated but not dirty or messy, with only an altar placed inside.

He walked closer, picked up an incense stick, lit it, and gently inserted it into the incense burner.

His gaze fell on the panel, where a new line of data had appeared.

【Myriad World Peace Record (Not入門) (10 / 3000000) [19%]】

The Myriad World Peace Record is divided into three Realms: Initial, Middle, and Late-Stage, corresponding to the three levels of True Immortal.

In the current Divine Land, there are no Late-Stage True Immortals left; that is an invincible power capable of sweeping across the Divine Land.

The First Ancestor of the Xia Emperor only attempted to Breakthrough beyond True Immortal after cultivating to the Peak of the Late-Stage, and then, as expected, he ascended into dust.

Above True Immortal, its true name is unknown, and it can only be referred to as Immortal King.

That is a Realm capable of controlling time and space to a certain extent, truly immortal and undying.

Even if killed by a peer, as long as its traces still exist in history, it will eventually be able to return from ancient records one day.

Looking at the experience points required for the later stages, just entering the Initial Realm requires three million experience points, which is thirty thousand potential points, and even more will be needed thereafter.

But what bothered him most wasn’t this, but the extremely low compatibility at the end.

He knew this was because the Myriad World Peace Record was incompatible with his state of mind, even completely opposite, which led to this situation.

This also meant that it was almost impossible for him to cultivate it to the Initial Realm by himself.

Furthermore, even if he forcibly pushed it up with potential points, the power it would unleash might not be very strong.

Shaking his head, he walked out of the house and casually closed the door.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to Yuan Province tomorrow,” he said.

For him, who had mastered spatial power to the extreme, whether it was the imperial city or Yuan Province, staying anywhere made no real difference.

“King Qin, wait. After Xia Yu met you back then, he instructed me to give you the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art,” the Immortal Ancestor said.

“Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art? Is it the Divine Martial cultivated by the First Ancestor of the Xia Emperor before he achieved True Immortal?” Qin Jiang asked.

There was no record of the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art in historical texts, and even records before the First Ancestor of the Xia Emperor founded the Xia Kingdom were sparse.

“Indeed. Today, it seems that perhaps his Myriad World Peace Record is not suitable for you,” the Immortal Ancestor said.

He had once read the Myriad World Peace Record, and although it wasn’t entirely suitable, he still gained much Comprehension Ability from it, with Immortal Dao phenomena filling the sky.

However, Qin Jiang’s acceptance of the Myriad World Peace Record today was unremarkable; not even a single ray of profound light appeared.

This situation either meant he had little Comprehension Ability of the Myriad World Peace Record, or his compatibility with it was simply too low.

Comparatively, he leaned more towards the latter.

After all, how could a super True God who had soared to prominence in a short time not have high Comprehension Ability?

Moreover, Qin Jiang was simply too similar to Xia Yu back then; that inherent domineering nature was carved from the same mold.

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, having no objections. “What about the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art?”

“Far away in the sky, yet close at hand,” the Immortal Ancestor chuckled.

Qin Jiang’s eyes shifted slightly, looking at the black cauldron in the courtyard. “Is it that? The Legacy Divine Artifact of the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art?”

“It is not a Legacy Divine Artifact, but the overlord cauldron, the battle weapon used by Xia Yu when he was still an Overlord. It indeed holds the Legacy of the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art, but it is waiting for a worthy master.

If that person is not worthy, they cannot obtain the Overlord Subduing Cauldron Art,” the Immortal Ancestor said.

Qin Jiang smiled upon hearing this. “Interesting.”

He walked directly to the overlord cauldron and gently caressed it.

A moment later, the overlord cauldron showed no reaction.

The Immortal Ancestor shook his head gently. As expected, even the later Xia Yu could not gain the overlord cauldron’s recognition, and King Qin was still lacking.

After another moment, Qin Jiang looked at the overlord cauldron in front of him, scratched the corner of his eye, and then suddenly slapped it.

Dong!

The overlord cauldron flew off at the sound, smashing heavily against the courtyard wall. Immortal light flashed on the wall, protecting the fragile structure.

Buzz~~~

The next moment, the overlord cauldron displayed its Divine Might. The outer shell of its body peeled off, revealing the Nine Dragon totem within, emitting a domineering pressure.

It rose into the air, and countless brilliant lights converged into a massive phantom of a giant cauldron, enveloping it.

The immense and heavy Divine Might pressed down, causing everyone in the imperial city to simultaneously look up at the sky above the palace.

The Xia Emperor walked out of the hall, gazing at the phantom of the giant cauldron in the sky, his eyes trembling. “This, this is… the overlord cauldron of the Immortal Ancestor!”

Divine light shot from afar, and Ye Yuanling’s figure appeared, looking somewhat anxious.

“Your Majesty! What happened?!”

He looked at the giant cauldron in the sky, recognizing it as the overlord cauldron mentioned in the secret Legacy.

But hadn’t this precious cauldron always been in the Immortal Ancestor’s courtyard? Why did it suddenly display Divine Might?

“I don’t know either, but this overlord cauldron doesn’t seem to be actively displaying its Divine Might. Back then, this overlord cauldron followed the Immortal Ancestor in battles across the land, slaying more than one True Immortal. It has already developed some self-will, and even the Immortal Ancestor himself could not use it at will later on.

But why did it suddenly display Divine Might today? Could it be… King Qin?!”

“King Qin!”

The two said in unison.

Before they could say anything more, in the center of the imperial palace, a giant hand covered in black scales rose and reached for the overlord cauldron.

Dong!

The overlord cauldron fiercely smashed against the giant hand, carrying a force that almost exceeded the scope of a True God, startling both the Xia Emperor and Ye Yuanling.

But it was useless. The black giant hand simply clenched, and the space where the overlord cauldron was located was infinitely compressed. The terrifying spatial pressure caused tiny cracks to appear on the cauldron’s body.

“King Qin! King Qin! Don’t destroy the overlord cauldron!” the Immortal Ancestor shouted, but showed no intention of intervening.

Qin Jiang snorted coldly, pulling the overlord cauldron down and smashing it heavily into the courtyard.

“It’s just a Divine Martial; this King doesn’t need it!”

With that, he lifted his foot to leave. Just as he was about to depart, a gust of wind surged behind him, and the overlord cauldron flew towards him.

When it was one meter away from him, its volume slowly shrank, transforming into a small cauldron with a diameter of one inch. It slowly rotated around Qin Jiang, emitting mental fluctuations.

‘You hit me! You hit me! You hit me!’

Qin Jiang looked at the overlord cauldron with some surprise, not expecting an inanimate object to actually develop consciousness.

One should know that even King Huai’s top-tier Immortal Artifact did not have self-awareness.

He slightly raised his hand, and the small cauldron floated into his palm. A domineering force surged into his body through his palm, and at the same time, a profound Divine Martial also appeared in his mind.

A few breaths later, that domineering force became intermittent, and the small cauldron swayed up and down, finally inverting directly in Qin Jiang’s palm. Streaks of power flowed out until not a single drop remained.

Qin Jiang looked at the panel, where new information appeared.
