Chapter 190: Body Refiner

"Holy Medicine!"

A medicinal material being called 'holy' already indicates its value.

"This nine heavens azure leaf lotus will grow a total of nine leaves. According to legend, if it grows a tenth leaf, it is about to Ascend to the Upper Realm!"

Medicinal Materials can Ascend?

Hearing this, Qin Xuan finally understood how formidable this item was.

"This thing must be carefully put away. I'll have to go look for it in the future."

Qin Xuan whispered.

Just then, Han Ye poured cold water on him.

"However, this map is from the Ancient Era. After so many changes over time, do you have any idea where the things on it are now?"

Hearing this, Qin Xuan immediately calmed down.

Who knows how many changes have occurred between the current and ancient geographical features, so this map might not be usable in the short term.

Thinking of this, Qin Xuan felt a bit disappointed.

But he quickly recovered his spirits.

"No matter, having this thing still provides a basis. At least searching with it is better than searching aimlessly."

"As for the map, with the Ancient Era's ruins and so many years of searching, there are always traces to follow."

Qin Xuan said calmly. Hearing this, Han Ye thought for a moment and nodded.

Although the mountains and rivers have changed greatly now, it doesn't mean that people today don't have ancient maps.

With so many Ancient Era ruins, there will always be diligent people who can piece together the complete map from back then.

Thinking of this, Han Ye also agreed.

"The Pill Formula, and this Ancient Era map, both are extremely precious. These things absolutely cannot be known by others."

Qin Xuan kept pondering in his mind.

After a while, Qin Xuan carefully put the items away.

"This skeleton is due to the ancient beast hide scroll, so what about this hand bone?"

Looking at the hand bone in front of him, Qin Xuan secretly clicked his tongue.

Although this item was found in the Blue Spiritual Fire, it naturally cannot compare to the skeleton in the Black Spiritual Fire.

However, even so, this item is not simple.

The power of the Blue Spiritual Fire is already strong enough, but in this situation, this item can still remain. The things inside must not be simple.

Qin Xuan pondered, picking up the hand bone to study it.

"This hand bone is much heavier than ordinary human bones. Could there be something inside?"

With this thought, Qin Xuan drew out his Wu Feng Sword and slashed at the hand bone.

"Clang!"

The Wu Feng Sword fell, emitting a crisp sound.

Not even a single mark was left on the white bone.

"This!"

Looking at the hand bone in front of him in astonishment, Qin Xuan couldn't believe it was real.

"It must be fake, how could this thing be real? A bone that even a Spiritual Artifact can't cut through, how is that possible!"

But everything in front of Qin Xuan forced him to believe.

That is, even the Wu Feng Sword couldn't cut through this hand bone.

Looking at this scene, Qin Xuan kept clicking his tongue.

"This hand bone is not right. Something must have been added inside the bone, otherwise, it couldn't be this hard."

Something added?

Qin Xuan was startled.

"How is that possible? This is a human bone, how can something be added? It can't be that iron essence was refined into it..."

Qin Xuan said, quickly picking up the bone.

Then he mobilized the Spiritual Fire within his body and began to roast the bone.

As the Spiritual Fire continuously roasted it, there was no change in the bone.

"Damn it, the Spiritual Fire didn't even cause a reaction. Is this really a human bone? Even if it doesn't melt, it shouldn't have no reaction."

Qin Xuan was somewhat exasperated.

This hand bone couldn't be cut, couldn't be melted, how was he supposed to deal with it?

"It won't melt, it won't break. Ordinary human bones certainly can't do that, but I once heard that there's a type of Body Refining cultivator who can achieve this."

Body Refining cultivator?

Qin Xuan was stunned; he had never heard of such a thing.

"Of course you don't know, because Body Refining cultivators are very rare. It can be said that throughout the entire Eastern Domain, all Body Refining cultivators combined wouldn't exceed a thousand."

Not exceeding a thousand.

Qin Xuan nodded, that was indeed very rare.

"But how can this Body Refining cultivator make their bones so hard that even a sword can't cut them, and fire can't burn them?"

This was too strange.

Speaking of which, Qin Xuan's own body had been refined by the Refining God Cauldron, yet even so, it hadn't reached the point of being able to withstand Spiritual Fire. How could this type of Body Refining cultivator achieve that?

"Body Refining cultivators are divided into two types. The first type of Body Refining cultivator is also known as ancient Body Refining cultivators. They advocate Cultivating themselves, constantly improving themselves through self-Cultivation, and becoming stronger in this way."

"Their Cultivation method is more like blacksmithing, constantly hammering and refining to remove the Impurities from their bodies, continuously purifying and strengthening themselves."

"I heard some madmen even use flames to burn themselves, truly like blacksmithing."

Hearing this, a strange expression flashed across Qin Xuan's face.

Thinking about it, he himself was like one of those madmen who used flames to burn themselves.

"The second type of Body Refining cultivator is a new school that emerged in the last few millennia. I haven't met anyone from this school, only read about them in ancient texts."

"Although they also temper themselves, their method of tempering is different. More accurately, their method is similar to replacement."

"They use various rare Materials, through flame scorching or heavy hammering, constantly refining, and gradually replacing their original body with all sorts of good things."

"For example, bones. First, they use iron essence, hammering it into their body little by little. Once the body has completely absorbed the iron essence, they remove their original bones, and then find more good things."

"Not only that, muscles, bones, skin, everything can be replaced."

"It was once recorded in ancient texts that a madman replaced his heart with the heart of a Rank Six Spirit Beast, replaced his bones with mithril, and replaced all the vital Bloodline in his body with the vital Bloodline of high-Rank Spirit Beasts."

"He even gouged out his eyes and replaced them with the eyes of a Spirit Beast with extraordinary vision."

"Not only that, he eventually found a human skin from somewhere and put it on himself."

It was like a hodgepodge.

Hearing this, Qin Xuan's scalp was already tingling, without even needing to ask what happened next.

"Tempering the body and adding iron essence to the bones is normal, but the purpose of these is to make the body stronger."

"These are all added for the body itself. In other words, everything is for self-improvement, but using this method, isn't it equivalent to constantly abandoning one's own body?"

In Qin Xuan's view, other things that can enhance the physique and Bloodline are essentially used to strengthen one's own physique, rather than disliking one's original physique and then discarding it.

It's about one's own body absorbing the essence of these things, not replacing the original body with these essences.

"So, that person eventually went mad!"
