Chapter 202: Body Refining Method: I Can Finally Fly, Time to Show Off

As the System’s prompt sounded, Jiang Li released control of his body, allowing the Body Refining Method to take over.

His body was like a whirlpool, devouring the surrounding Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi.

The third layer of the Cultivation Technique, “Imperial World-Shocking Divine Art,” was called “Mountain River Muscle.” It reconstructed the muscles of the entire body into a miniature, dense imperial territory. Once cultivated, a single punch from him would unleash not just the power of a city, but that of an entire magnificent landscape.

One punch, and mountains and rivers would overturn. Who could withstand such world-shaking power?

In the Grand Dream Ancient World, the reason the Body Refining Method earned the title of Heavenly Departure Holy Emperor was precisely because he possessed the power to overturn mountains and rivers with a single punch.

And now… he was about to possess that great power as well.

Jiang Li was secretly excited.

His mind completely immersed itself in the Body Refining Method’s automated Cultivation.

He could clearly sense that as the Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi continuously merged into his body, each muscle fiber was like a rolling mountain range, a winding river. Between muscle contractions and expansions, it was no longer a simple linear movement, but rather like tectonic plates shifting, containing immense and heavy power.

Between the muscle fiber bundles, a highly concentrated Xuanhuang Blood Qi, derived from ‘Profound Yellow Blood,’ flowed like rivers rushing through a territory, continuously delivering abundant power.

Time passed minute by minute.

This was Jiang Li’s longest seclusion ever.

For two full months, he had been consuming Imperial Dragon Qi. The quantity of Imperial Dragon Qi had sharply decreased from the original eight thousand to two thousand five hundred, consuming a total of five thousand five hundred portions.

The consumption was truly astonishing.

Jiang Li clicked his tongue.

If he hadn’t gone to Piaomiao Imperial City, it would have been truly difficult for him to gather such a vast amount of Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi.

Fortunately, the entire Piaomiao Dynasty had become a channel for him to collect Power Of Will. The amount of Imperial Dynasty Dragon Qi produced daily was astonishing. For now, he didn’t need to worry about the Imperial Dragon Qi issue.

In his thoughts.

The phenomena around Jiang Li became increasingly astonishing.

A phantom image of mountains and rivers appeared around his body, covering a vast area that encompassed the entire Human Emperor Palace. If one looked closely, they would notice that the Human Emperor Palace itself seemed to be ethereal and on the verge of disappearing, merging into this painting of mountains and rivers, appearing and disappearing.

Such a peculiar scene naturally drew the Elders of Sword Palace to stop and observe, thinking: Is the Saint making another Breakthrough? Such a rapid pace of progress is truly that of a Prodigy, terrifying indeed.

Soon.

The phantom image of mountains and rivers gradually receded, merging into Jiang Li’s body.

【Ding, automated management has ended.】

As the cold, mechanical electronic voice faded, Jiang Li regained control of his body and suddenly clenched his fists.

When he exerted force, it was no longer a simple muscle contraction, but rather the activation of the power of the ‘Mountain River Muscle’ within his body. Every punch and kick could unleash a surging sensation like a mountain torrent or a tsunami.

“It’s done.”

Jiang Li’s emotions surged.

He took a step.

Slowly ascended into the air.

He did not use his Cultivation, nor did he use any movement techniques, but purely relied on the effects brought by the Body Refining Method.

At this stage, he could already freely adjust the weight of his Physical Body; light as a feather when light, heavy as a mountain when heavy. Even standing high in the sky, he could resonate with the real earth beneath his feet, gaining the characteristic ‘Unwavering.’

This was an ability only available at the third layer of the Body Refining Method.

The so-called Unwavering meant that no attack could knock him down or send him flying. Even an attack beyond his maximum endurance would not make him move half a step.

“Now the Body Refining Method can finally fly.”

Jiang Li maintained a head-down, feet-up posture, overlooking Tianjian Peak from a novel perspective. He could clearly feel a strong resonance with the Earth Vein, which guided his flight path. This was somewhat similar to the Mountain-Moving Divine Ape’s Magnetic Force, controlling his own flight using the Earth Vein’s magnetic field. As long as he wished, he could not only fly but also uproot any mountain Peak.

Subsequently.

Jiang Li once again received Heavenly Dao information.

【spirit transformation ranking.】

…【Number 240: Jiang Li.】

Seeing this Rank, Jiang Li’s eyes lit up.

From 480th place, he suddenly soared to 240th, surpassing 240 Soul Transformation experts. The magnitude of the progress even startled him.

He thought to himself: Are these Soul Transformation experts really that weak?

No wonder the Body Refining Method in the dream world, after only breaking through to the third layer, almost swept through the Cultivation World of that time. His current 240th Rank, if placed a hundred thousand years ago, would not be an exaggeration to call him the number one Soul Transformation individual.

Even now, his strength among Soul Transformation Cultivators was considered among the top.

Jiang Li assessed that, purely in terms of Physical Body strength, he would not be weaker than an average Soul Transformation Middle Stage Cultivator. With various other methods, it would only take three punches to kill a Soul Transformation Dragon again.

Amidst his thoughts.

Daily intelligence refreshed.

Ever since he gained 1% of the Heavenly Dao authority, he could refresh several pieces of Heavenly Dao information related to him every day.

However, most of it was about who was paying attention to him, who was thinking about him, and so on.

【Human Race Bulletin: The Scarlet Flame Holy Dynasty, wary of the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son, canceled its sneak attack strategy. After confirming the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son had left, it assembled three armies and launched a frontal assault on the weakened borders of the Piaomiao Dynasty, resulting in 32,560 soldier deaths.】

【Yao Race Bulletin: The Demon Clan Royal Court issued a top-level wanted order, offering a full bounty on the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son. The killer will be regarded as a Yao Race VIP and will receive 50 million Spirit Stones, one Fifth-Rank Heaven And Earth Treasure, one Fifth-Rank Spiritual Artifact, and one Yao Saint Empowerment.】

【Demonic Path Bulletin: The Yinkui Sect’s corpse refining technique has matured. A special experimental subject has been found for experimentation, and it is believed that this experimental subject can rival the Heavenly Mystery Holy Son, being the most perfect demon in history.】

Looking at the information in the Heavenly Dao messages, Jiang Li was thoughtful.

The Scarlet Flame Holy Dynasty, as one of the three major secular Imperial Dynasties, had always coveted the Piaomiao Dynasty. He had seen similar information two months ago, but that time it said the Scarlet Flame Holy Dynasty was preparing to send Nascent Soul Peak Cultivators to bypass the Piaomiao Dynasty’s rear and attack the Lands of Jiuzhou.

Now, upon seeing this.

The Scarlet Flame Holy Dynasty, deterred by his prominence, did not directly act. Instead, it waited for two months, and seeing that he indeed no longer concerned himself with Piaomiao Dynasty affairs, it then launched another general offensive.

The severity of the battle could be seen from the number of casualties.

He thought to himself: These three secular Imperial Dynasties fighting back and forth are all consuming his Divine Sense strength. Although the external Divine Sense is not his own Divine Sense, it is still part of his foundation. If too much is consumed, then the Cultivation Technique entry ‘Emperor’s Soul’ will lose its usefulness.

Just as Jiang Li had a similar thought, the Body Refining Method jumped out again.

【Ding, the Cultivation Technique “Imperial World-Shocking Divine Art” frowned. Under heaven, there is no land that is not the King’s territory; among the land’s inhabitants, there are none who are not the King’s subjects. All this fighting consumes my troops. I will never tolerate such internal strife. The unification of the three great Imperial Dynasties is now.】

Jiang Li was slightly stunned.

He had just thought of using his identity to make the Scarlet Flame Holy Dynasty retreat. What on earth was unifying the three great Imperial Dynasties? Such a thing couldn’t be done. Didn’t he see that the Demon Clan Royal Court had even offered a Fifth-Rank Spiritual Artifact as a reward for him?

He knew best how powerful a Fifth-Rank Spiritual Artifact was.

This was a temptation that even Soul Transformation Cultivators found hard to resist.

He was certain that the current secular world was being watched by many with ulterior motives. As soon as he dared to descend the mountain, a net of heaven and earth would await him.

System, don’t be impulsive.
