Chapter 161: Chapter 128: The Saintly Body
Translator: 549690339
“Spiritual power, Divine Sense, are these two immortal techniques really attainable through martial arts practice?”
Thinking about his speculations on how to activate the jade pieces, Lu Yuan felt a little lost for a moment.
He had already trained to the peak state, but for things like Divine Sense and spiritual power, he still had no clue.
Could it be that only when they reached the Innate Realm could their spiritual power and Divine Sense be born?
Or even Inborn Grandmasters wouldn’t work.
It wasn’t until they reached the Grandmaster Realm above the Innate Realm that Divine Sense could be born, or similar powers of the divine soul could appear.
But how long would it take to wait for that day?
Lu Yuan calculated his current cultivation progress…
Fifty years? A hundred years?
Although he had already trained to the mid-term of peak Inner Strength, he was only six meridians away from the next level, the Innate Realm.
But for Lu Yuan, breaking through the meridians was the simplest predicament, with the bigger problem being how to obtain the next Mental Technique.
However, higher Mental Techniques were undoubtedly in the hands of stronger people.
Trying to snatch Mental Techniques from people stronger than him would prove extremely difficult and even suicidal.
Thus, how to seize the Mental Technique became an obstacle for Lu Yuan to become stronger.
“The strongest person in Dongting Prefecture is undoubtedly the Inborn Grandmaster of the dynasty. He must have the Inborn Technique in his hands, but trying to acquire it from him would be wishful thinking.
Besides this person, the government has three peak experts in Dongting
Prefecture.
However, these three people are of average reputation in Jianghu and not outstanding among the peak experts, so their learned techniques should not be strong either.
There are five local Jianghu forces in Dongting Prefecture with peak inheritances.
However, among these five families, four are of average strength, not even as strong as the Iron Sword Sect of Yuzhang Prefecture, and their heritage would not be much use to me.
What’s left is the Poison Sect.
The Poison Sect has a long-standing inheritance. It’s rumored that there are secret techniques within the sect that directly point to the Innate Realm, although no one has ever been able to confirm this.
But even without secret techniques, it is certain that one can cultivate top peak martial arts within the sect.
However, this Poison Sect…”
Lu Yuan had had numerous interactions and grievances with the Poison Sect.
However, whenever he thought of the four peak experts of the Poison Sect, all of his thoughts and ideas evaporated.
Whether it was that Inborn Grandmaster or the Poison Sect, both were untouchable existences for Lu Yuan.
As for other peak forces in neighboring prefectures, they too had top-notch legacy techniques.
However, those forces were either Innate Great Sects or like the Poison Sect. Getting their legacy techniques would be extremely difficult in terms of risk.
“Could it be that the only way left is to create my own technique?”
Lu Yuan thought of this possibility.
Upon careful consideration, creating his own technique seemed to be the safest and most fitting path for him.
Even if it took him hundreds of years to develop a top peak technique, a time-consuming process.
Ordinary people couldn’t afford that.
But for Lu Yuan, there was no problem.
Time, for an immortal, is the cheapest thing.
“Let’s wait a bit.”
Although his heart was already swaying, Lu Yuan hadn’t fully made up his mind: “I can prepare to create my own technique, but if possible, it is still best to obtain existing techniques.
Now that the troubled times have begun, various opportunities abound.
If Li Xiong can rob himself into being an Inborn Grandmaster, why can’t I?
In any case, there’s no hurry, so let’s just wait and see if there are any opportunities.”
At this moment, Lu Yuan decided to make use of his trump card, patience.
As his lifespan is unlimited, even if he wasted a few decades waiting for the opportunity, it would not matter to him.
There is not much difference between starting to create techniques now and decades later.
While Lu Yuan sauntered, time continued to pass outside.
Now it is the cold winter, with heavy snowfall and no busy farming period.
As a result, local militias from various regions are starting major exercises under the summons of the government. Every village, town, and city has large groups of adult men gathered, learning basic military combat techniques under the shouts of the officials.
Though he had given up on the militias, Lu Yuan would occasionally patrol and check on them when he was tired from practicing. But every time he came back, he couldn’t help shaking his head.
Those village braves had too weak of foundations.
Even with arduous training, their ultimate achievements would be limited, let alone this intermittent training.
After losing hope in the village braves, Lu Yuan stopped worrying about these matters altogether.
He had higher-ups to deal with any crisis that came their way.
If foreign enemies truly invaded, the regular army of the dynasty would naturally be there to stop them.
If they couldn’t resist, there was nothing to say. He would naturally run away with Brother Sun.
The rise and fall of the Yue Dynasty didn’t matter to Lu Yuan, as he never thought about dying with a mortal dynasty.
As for whether Brother Sun was willing?
As a peak expert, Lu Yuan believed that the opinions of weak scholars were unimportant.
From then on, Lu Yuan focused on training and having get-togethers with Sun Siwen whenever he was tired from practice..
