Chapter 230 Godfiend Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage (2/4)
As everyone watched, Shen Tian slowly opened his eyes.
Currently, Shen Tian felt like he was brimming with power all over.
The five extraordinary items’ power sources were circulating inside his body, nourishing his body and his soul.
During the Body Tempering realm, one’s muscles, bones, and blood would be cultivated. From there, a powerful Qi Aura could be formed.
For the Transcendence realm, a normal Godfiend cultivator could use their Qi Aura to refine their inner organs until they were as powerful as the rest of their body.
Shen Tian’s method of refining his internal organs was completely different from other cultivators. He directly used the power of the five extraordinary items to cultivate his internal organs, strengthening them to the highest levels.
As a result, Shen Tian’s internal organs were far stronger than your usual cultivator.
Above the Transcendence realm was the Golden Body realm, which was similar to Qi Refinement cultivators’ Golden Core stage.
At this level, the key point was to draw out energy from the internal organs to handle the Five Elements and merge them into one.
The resulting energy would be far more powerful than your normal Qi energy. It was touted as the “Godfiend Energy” by Godfiend cultivators and extremely powerful.
With this “Godfiend Energy”, one could refine all the Qi energy in their body and form the Godfiend Golden Body. The Godfiend Golden Body was similar to the Golden Core. It could also be split into nine refinement stages. It was rumored that if one could form the Godfiend Golden Body, the cultivator’s physique could become similar to some of the Godfiends from the latter days.
Of course, only the weakest and smallest of the latter-day Godfiends.
Even so, one could still withstand the attacks of most weapons refined by Golden Core energy of the same level. Their bodies would more or less become a weapon on their own.
If a cultivator managed to reach the highest Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage, their body would be nearly comparable to the early-day Godfiends.
Of course, the Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage was only a legend.
One could still find examples of Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage cultivators in the ancient books.
But it was nearly impossible to find any records of someone who had managed to achieve a Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage.
Even the most powerful Godfiend cultivators had only been able to form a “pseudo-Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage” over the years And these reports were unverified.
But even if one only had a Golden Body at the seventh or eighth refinement stages, they would still possess powerful battle capabilities and were not to be underestimated.
It was rumored that thousands of years ago, a Godfiend cultivator who had reached the Golden Body Eighth Refinement Stage had gotten angry and challenged a Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage practitioner.
In the end, the Golden Body Eighth Refinement Stage cultivator had managed to break all his opponent’s attacks with just his iron fists.
Within a hundred moves, the cultivator had beaten up the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage practitioner so badly his Golden Core had cracked.
He had definitely exuded the stance of an indomitable warrior.
...
In any case, Qi Refinement cultivators at the Golden Core stage were touted as masters of their own destinies. It was considered the most important stage for most normal cultivators.
Meanwhile, the Golden Body realm was the same for Godfiend cultivators. After achieving that realm, one could cultivate both internally and externally. Even the most vulnerable internal organs would become extremely tough, such that the cultivator would have no weak spots left. The battle prowess and vitality of such a cultivator would be mind-blowing.
This was the pathway that normal humans had to undergo in order to transform and evolve into a Godfiend!
After feeling the changes in his body, Shen Tian reached out his right hand.
White, green, black, red, and yellow lights revolved around the tip of his forefinger.
The five-colored lights slowly merged into a golden one, exuding a vast and profound aura.
Although it was just a sliver of energy, the rest of the folks couldn’t help gasping at it.
Godfiend Energy!
This is the true Godfiend Energy!
Moreover, Shen Tian’s Godfiend Energy was at a very high level. It encompassed the powers of five types of extraordinary items and was of supreme quality. One might even call it the “Mixed Godfiend Energy”!
That’s right. Mixed from the power of everything in the universe...
“Brother Shen has gotten stronger again. His physical body is now truly powerful.”
Kong Meng’s eyes sparkled as her multi-colored outfit swirled. She looked extremely vibrant under the blood-red sun of the battlefield.
This trip to the battlefield had been extremely valuable to her. Finding the Rainbow Divine Light Fan was just a bonus. More importantly, she had found her motivation target to advance herself so that her previously peerless self would no longer stagnate. From now on, she would make Shen Tian her motivation target, to strive hard to catch up with him.
If not for the fact that she had to return to the Peacock race to give her Peacock ancestor a proper burial, as well as announce to her parents and elders about her human partner, Kong Meng wished to stay by Shen Tian’s side always.
After all, she felt that it was much more interesting to train with Shen Tian rather than training all alone.
Not only was it easier to find fortuitous opportunities, but Shen Tian was also a constant motivation for her to improve herself.
Most importantly, Shen Tian would be by her side.
Eye candy!
Shen Tian was oblivious to the crowd’s staring eyes.
This was because he had something more important to analyze and think about.
Shen Tian took out a mirror and carefully studied the reflection of his head.
Yes, Shen Tian was studying the halo above his head.
Before entering the Primordial Battlefield, Shen Tian’s halo had been green tinged with
red.
After helping Qin Gao find the Dragon Blood Grass, aiding Kong Meng’s retrieval of the Rainbow Divine Light Fan and Rainbow Divine Light power source, leading Zhao Hao and Kong Meng to the God of War Pagoda, as well as helping Jin Yu recover the body of his Great Golden-Winged Eagle race ancestor...
Qin Gao, Kong Meng, Zhao Hao, and Jin Yu’s providence had all increased vastly.
Even Shen Ao, Song Fugui, Liu Taiyi, and Eunuch Gui’s lousy fortuitous opportunities and providence had also improved.
Meanwhile, Shen Tian’s own providence had surged even more. It was mostly red now, with just a small portion of green. It looked rather nice now.
But at this point, Shen Tian’s Tinder Sutra once again had a breakthrough.
Upon looking at his reflection, he realized that the red light on his halo was slowly fading away-from the original mostly red halo to a half-red, half-green halo now. Shen Tian’s heart ached badly at the loss.
Sigh...
This Tinder Sutra was truly powerful. In both good and bad ways. If only he could just pay money for it.
But every time he advanced a major level, he would have to expend a large portion of his own providence. Did they think providence was so easy to come by?
According to the previous times when my providence took a big hit, I should not linger on in this battlefield.
Shen Tian went on the alert. He was not being a worrywart but acting in accordance with past data.
Think about it! When Qin Gao’s providence had plunged, he had knocked over the spirit herbs and had been tied up and beaten. When Fang Chang’s providence had dropped, his entire dantian had cracked after failing to attain the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage. When Chen Zhongtian’s providence had decreased, he had ended up driving his war chariot right into a powerful Divine Firmament protective array.
When Jin Yu’s providence had declined, he had been captured by a Nascent Soul Blood Demon and stuffed into its body.
All these incidents couldn’t be mere coincidences!
At this thought, Shen Tian gazed unhappily at the tops of his companions’ heads.
If he acted sensibly, he shouldn’t continue taking risks on the Primordial Battlefield after his providence dropped. But even though the fortuitous opportunities upon his companions’ heads were not very great now, even a subpar one was better than none!
Every bit of providence counted!
To be honest, Shen Tian couldn’t really bear to leave now.
Should he retreat now or take a risk...
To tell the truth, Shen Tian was feeling very torn!
