NOVPUBJi Xuexiao informed Su Changkong that at the second tier of the Martial Saint realm, one could inscribe Divine Patterns into their own flesh, forging a Divine Body. Once the body is forged, every move and action carries immense divine might.
In the realm of Martial Saints, those who can reach the Divine Body realm capable of inscribing Divine Patterns are already terrifying existences who can dominate a region in the Ancient Holy Country!
"The third stage of Martial Saint, from the Seventh Heaven to the Ninth Heaven, is the Great Divine Power. The Divine Body and Divine Seed grow to their limits, and the fusion of the two gives birth to Great Divine Powers, so strong that they are inconceivable. Among them, the strongest and most supreme can be called Ancient Saints. They truly stand at the pinnacle of Martial Saints.
It is said that at the beginning of the Ancient Holy Country, it was founded by the collective efforts of several Ancient Saints. Their legacy is the reason why the Ancient Holy Country has been able to exist until today," said Ji Xuexiao.
Martial Saint (Entering Saint) Ninth Heaven, Divine Seed, Divine Body, Great Divine Power!
Those who reach the peak of Martial Saint are honored as Ancient Saints!
The origin of the Ancient Holy Country is that it was founded by the Ancient Saints of the ancient era. They chose the most fertile lands and constructed it over many years. It is the uncontested center of the Ten Nations of humankind.
The other nine nations together cannot compare to the Ancient Holy Country!
"Martial Saint Ninth Heaven... Ancient Saints..."
Su Changkong couldn’t help but be stirred with emotion.
The oldest ones, who wielded Great Divine Powers and perfected their cultivation, can be called Ancient Saints. They are truly the strongest in the Ten Nations, who establish and dictate rules.
"I wonder if those Ancient Saints died while meditating or advanced even further?"
Su Changkong couldn’t help but think about this.
The initial Ancient Saints who built the Ancient Holy Country were the strongest in the ancient era. With how powerful they were, could they have achieved immortality? If they truly didn’t die, then after so many years, they might have touched or even reached a higher realm!
"Thinking about this is still too far away for me; I haven’t even become a Martial Saint,"
Su Changkong gathered his thoughts, knowing that he should not aim too high and take it step by step. He wasn’t even a Martial Saint yet, let alone a higher realm.
"Dao Wufeng’s strength... is nearly invincible below the first tier of Martial Saint. The five Martial Artists of the Blood Demon Sect, each with a Blood Divine Seed, were no match for him!"
Ji Xuexiao couldn’t help but admire him greatly.
From Su Changkong’s question about the situation of the Ancient Holy Country and the strength and weakness of the Martial Saint realm, Ji Xuexiao realized that Su Changkong truly did not come from a major family or powerful force, much less a descendant of a powerful Martial Saint.
He truly came from humble origins and had reached this point through his own efforts in cultivation!
Su Changkong, with nearly overwhelming battle strength, killed the five Martial Artists of the Blood Demon Sect. With such strength, he was nearly invincible under Martial Saints, able to dominate as long as he didn’t encounter a Divine Seed Martial Saint, and even compared to those reincarnated Martial Saints, not necessarily weaker!
As for Martial Saints? The weakest Martial Saint is beyond the reach of even the strongest Innate.
Complete refinement of the Divine Seed, rooting it within the body, and nurturing the physique allow a Martial Artist to truly have a body that transcends into sainthood, able to unleash all the might of Divine Skills! Incomparable!
"Just now, without using the Giant Whale Body Technique, I killed five Ancient Demon Sect Martial Artists possessing Blood Divine Seeds. If I had used the Giant Whale Body Technique, the strength of my body would have significantly skyrocketed, truly reaching the Martial Saint level. Within the first tier of Martial Saint, my physical strength should be considered powerful, capable of bodily flight.
I estimate that without using Mysterious Turtle True Essence, relying solely on my physique, I could burst them apart! Faced with a first tier Martial Saint, I should have the power to fight!"
Su Changkong secretly recalled the recent battle, where he hadn’t used his full strength.
The Giant Whale Body Technique would allow him to truly possess a Martial Saint-level physique, and with the enhanced physique, a one-time explosion of the limit of 10 drops of Mysterious Turtle True Essence would be very terrifying. If facing a first tier Martial Saint, he might not be unable to compete head-on!
The current Su Changkong commanded 4 quasi-Divine Skill level Martial Arts, and his Blade Technique had also reached the Soul Realm. This could be said to be quite exaggerated, astonishing, leaving virtually no weakness!
"Sister Xuexiao!"
At that moment, a joyous voice came from the sky. Through the scattered clouds, a young girl in blue, wrapped in a cyan spirit wind, cautiously poked her head out. Seeing the situation below, she breathed a sigh of relief and descended. It was Fu Qingsi.
Fu Qingsi was overjoyed to see Ji Xuexiao unharmed.
"I’m fine," Ji Xuexiao said with a rare smile on her face as she ruffled Fu Qingsi’s hair.
Fu Qingsi had met Ji Xuexiao before when Ji Xuexiao came to the Bright Night Kingdom to inquire about the Ancient Demon Sect and stayed at the Fu Family for a while.
"Was that terrifying blow just now from Senior Blade? Just too terrifying!"
Fu Qingsi was also shocked by Su Changkong’s terrifying power, even from a distance she felt that dreadful aura.
"Let’s clean up and leave first,"
said Su Changkong to the two women, without delay, tidying up the battlefield.
The biggest gain was the five Blood Divine Seeds.
The black-robed old man and the other four were disciples of the Ancient Demon Sect, commanding the Blood Divine Seeds. Compared to people like Gu Lie and Mo Junling, this was where their advantage lay, able to harness the bloodline Divine Skills from the Blood Divine Seeds, whose might was quite terrifying!
"Brother Blade, thank you for lending a hand this time. Xuexiao is immensely grateful. If ever there’s something you need help with in the future, feel free to contact me,"
Ji Xuexiao gratefully thanked Su Changkong.
If it hadn’t been for Su Changkong, Ji Xuexiao could only choose to refine the Divine Seed to achieve Martial Saint and possibly have a chance to escape, but such an act would likely damage her potential, making it difficult to master a second Divine Skill and reach beyond the Second Heaven of Entering Saint. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
