Chapter 2049 - 2050: Li Ba of the Li Family
It was evident that this was an extremely advanced cultivation technique, valuable even in the Martial Realm. If it were elsewhere, it would likely become a rare treasure coveted by the world!
Ye Luo then began to browse through it.
The first part of the manual primarily introduced why the creator developed this cultivation technique! In fact, this was something Ye Luo wanted to know, as the Martial Realm doesn’t pay much attention to body cultivation techniques. The stronger one becomes, the more disdain they show, feeling that creating such body cultivation techniques is a complete waste of time!
However, this master was in quite a unique situation! That was being stripped of their realm!
Indeed, from a Martial Realm perspective, that meant the Dantian was destroyed, becoming a cripple!
Moreover, burdened with the deep hatred of clan annihilation, and having a destroyed Dantian, they embarked on the path of body refinement. Initially, they were subject to ridicule and disdain, leading them to seclude themselves in the deep mountains for hundreds of years, eventually achieving mastery in body cultivation!
They created the Great Saint Physique manual, thereafter obliterating opponents far and wide, avenging their deep hatred, and gaining immense renown in the Martial Realm as a grandmaster of body cultivation!
Logically, a manual created by such a grandmaster should be highly regarded, and indeed, as described in the book, it caused a considerable stir back then. The grandmaster even established a sect and recruited many disciples. However, an unexpected event occurred. Body cultivation was far more difficult than other forms of cultivation, and the suffering involved was unbearable for average people. The most crucial aspect was that none of the disciples succeeded!
It’s said that even those who could withstand the Earth Martial Realm were rare among body cultivators! Gradually, people started doubting these body cultivation techniques!
Of course, the reputation of the grandmaster remained, but was considered just an exception.
After a few years, there were few remaining disciples in the sect, and eventually, the grandmaster left the manual and disappeared from public view.
Ye Luo sighed deeply. Upon reaching this point, he hesitated as well. Initially, upon seeing the vitality in the manual, he felt he had obtained a supreme treasure. But now, he was uncertain whether it would truly be effective, and more importantly, would it have short-term results? One must know that body cultivation is a long process!
