Chapter 29: The Twelve Immortal Bodies (Part 1)

The Day Body, what kind of constitution is this? One of the Twelve Immortal Bodies, it is fundamentally impossible for anyone to be born with an immortal body.

Emperor Renming's Day Body was cultivated, and the body technique he practiced, "Day Body," came from Li Qiyi's "Body Book"!

Li Qiyi knew that the "Body Book" had been unforgettable for countless ages, so he hid it. At the same time, Li Qiyi was afraid that one day he might lose the "Body Book" and have his memory of the cultivation techniques erased.

Therefore, to prevent such an event, Li Qiyi used a method to pass down the secrets of the "Body Book."

Li Qiyi spent a lot of effort to hide the secrets of the "Body Book" in martial techniques that all cultivators considered insignificant. At that time, Li Qiyi divided the secrets into three parts and hid these three parts in three unrelated martial techniques. These three martial techniques consisted of 120 volumes, including thousands of martial techniques and side techniques!

The secrets of the "Body Book" were hidden inside, arranged in a sequence known only to Li Qiyi. Without Li Qiyi's sequence, even if one knew the "Body Book" was hidden inside, it would be impossible to extract the complete secrets of the "Body Book"!

At that time, the three martial techniques containing the secrets of the "Body Book" were printed in three different eras, so these three martial techniques spanned three eras and were unrelated!

In the three eras, Li Qiyi printed over ten thousand copies of the three martial techniques, which spread widely. After these three eras, not only did they spread in the Human Emperor Realm, but also in the other eight realms.

Although all the cultivation techniques in Li Qiyi's memory were erased, the sequence was not erased! Therefore, if one day he lost the original "Body Book," he could still recover the secrets of the "Body Book" from the "Comprehensive Martial Techniques," "Miscellaneous Martial Techniques," and "Iron Skin Copper Bones"!

Throughout the ages, no cultivator had seriously read all 120 volumes of the three martial techniques. Even if someone practiced martial techniques, it was impossible for them to possess all three martial techniques simultaneously!

The Ancient Xianyan Sect possessed these three martial techniques, which Li Qiyi had deliberately left behind. He also gave the Ancient Xianyan Sect a chance. If someone with true heart could comprehend his secrets, perhaps the Ancient Xianyan Sect could produce another Emperor Renming. Even if they couldn't become an emperor, they could still become an immortal body.

Unfortunately, few of the descendants of the Ancient Xianyan Sect had read these three martial techniques, let alone comprehend their secrets! As a result, after Emperor Renming, the Ancient Xianyan Sect had not produced another immortal body!

Li Qiyi spent the entire night extracting the secrets of the "Body Book" from the 120 volumes of martial techniques.

Looking at the written secrets, Li Qiyi couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. He slowly read the organized secrets. As Li Qiyi imprinted the secrets of the "Body Book" in his mind, the erased memories gradually surfaced, and finally, the complete "Body Book" reappeared in Li Qiyi's memory!

After the secrets of the "Body Book" were completely imprinted in his mind, Li Qiyi burned the copied secrets. After countless hardships, Li Qiyi knew the value of the "Body Book" and the disasters that would come if someone knew he had the "Body Book"! Therefore, he kept the secrets of the "Body Book" only in his mind.

In fact, the original "Body Book" was hidden by Li Qiyi, and no one in the world could retrieve it except him.

However, Li Qiyi was not in a hurry to retrieve the original "Body Book" because it was not just about the secrets of the cultivation techniques!

After recovering the secrets of the "Body Book," Li Qiyi rested for a while. By the time he woke up, it was already morning, and Nanhuairen had come early to the solitary peak to see Li Qiyi.

"Brother, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to the Armory today. The elder has assigned me a task, and I need to report the marriage alliance to the sect leader," Nanhuairen said upon seeing Li Qiyi.

Nanhuairen was a hall master and highly favored by the elder, so he often carried the responsibility of transmitting important messages.

"Go ahead, I'm not in a hurry to choose a treasure," Li Qiyi nodded lightly. He also took this opportunity to organize his cultivation techniques.

After Nanhuairen left, Li Qiyi didn't sleep much. He took out the "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms" manual. The "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms" held a high status among the third-generation disciples of the Ancient Xianyan Sect. It was a minor technique of the imperial art, and although it was a minor technique, its power was terrifying.

Throughout the ages, each Immortal Emperor had created astonishing cultivation techniques, including longevity techniques for extending life, life techniques for enhancing vitality, body techniques for strengthening the body, and destiny techniques that only Immortal Emperors could create.

Emperor Renming had created countless cultivation techniques in his lifetime. Li Qiyi was very familiar with Emperor Renming's techniques, whether they were longevity techniques, life techniques, or body techniques.

Emperor Renming was an Immortal Emperor he had personally cultivated. Most of the techniques Emperor Renming created, Li Qiyi had participated in, including the destiny techniques.

Although the last time he fell into a deep sleep, Li Qiyi had the Black Dragon King erase all his memories of the techniques, he could still recover them.

The "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms" corresponded to the core imperial technique, "Kunpeng Six Transformations," which was one of the strongest life techniques Emperor Renming created in his lifetime.

Li Qiyi didn't know if the Ancient Xianyan Sect still had the "Kunpeng Six Transformations." He couldn't access the core imperial techniques of the Ancient Xianyan Sect yet, but he could recover the memory of the "Kunpeng Six Transformations" through the "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms"!

Li Qiyi slowly read and comprehended the "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms." In fact, the "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms" only had six movements, not even a life technique for enhancing vitality. However, Li Qiyi knew better than anyone that Emperor Renming's "Kunpeng Six Transformations" was created based on these six movements.

When Emperor Renming was young, Li Qiyi, transformed into a dark crow, had taken him to observe the Kunpeng. Eventually, Emperor Renming summarized the six movements of the Kunpeng and created the "Kunpeng Six Transformations," which later became a famous Immortal Emperor life technique!

As Li Qiyi comprehended, the six movements of the "Kunpeng Xiao Yi Six Forms" slowly evolved in his mind. Sometimes, the Kunpeng soared in the sky, flapping its wings for three thousand miles; sometimes, it plunged into the depths, pecking through the earth; sometimes, it transformed into a giant Kunpeng, thrashing the waves...

Sometimes it was a Kunpeng, sometimes a Kun, evolving faster and faster. Gradually, it became impossible to distinguish between Kunpeng and Kun. Finally, a fish transformed into a bird, leaping into the sky, stepping on the great path, the transformation of Kun and Peng was like the change of the sun, natural and harmonious, resonating with the Dao.

With a loud "Boom," the Kunpeng struck the waves. In that instant, Li Qiyi's whole body trembled. The Kunpeng that raised a thousand-foot wave dissipated, and the surging waves also dissipated. Gradually, everything transformed into the Dao, the Dao evolved mysteriously, and the once-erased memory symbols reappeared in Li Qiyi's mind.

These memory symbols sometimes transformed into a Kunpeng, sometimes into a Kun, evolving endlessly. Finally, they became a complete Kunpeng, and a complete "Kunpeng Six Transformations" was imprinted in Li Qiyi's mind.

Li Qiyi couldn't help but feel elated. His efforts had not been in vain, and he had finally recovered the memory of the "Kunpeng Six Transformations."

After an unknown amount of time, Li Qiyi came back to his senses from the profound mysteries of the "Kunpeng Six Transformations." Unconsciously, he had been immersed in this supreme life technique for a whole day.

After comprehending the secrets of the "Kunpeng Six Transformations," Li Qiyi did not slack off or become complacent. He knew his situation better than anyone. Whether it was his constitution, longevity wheel, or life palace, he could not compare with those geniuses. Therefore, he had to work a hundred times harder in cultivation. On the path of cultivation, he must be persistent and unyielding. Only then could he bear the destiny and sweep across the nine heavens and ten earths.

As a mentor who had personally cultivated an Immortal Emperor and guided countless giants, he understood the great principles of cultivation better than anyone! Although his constitution, longevity wheel, and life palace were not good, he had a complete set of cultivation concepts, which was his advantage.

Li Qiyi opened the "Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique" and began to study it. The "Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique" was a longevity technique, focusing on cultivating the longevity wheel to extend life and nourish blood.

Any cultivator, even a mortal, has a longevity wheel! As long as they are intelligent beings, they have three things: one, constitution; two, longevity wheel; three, life palace.

Constitution, as the carrier of life, is essential. Without a constitution, there is no life. Even the most ordinary mortal has a mortal constitution! A flesh and blood body is the best carrier of life!

The longevity wheel is described by the saying, "Trees have rings, and humans have longevity wheels." The longevity wheel is contained within the body, but it is not tangible. It is a series of light wheels that only cultivators can see. When one practices longevity techniques, the longevity wheel appears behind the head. The series of light wheels indicates the strength of one's blood and life force.

For a mortal, the length of their life, if they are not harmed, is determined by the longevity wheel. For example, a mortal with a longevity wheel like Li Qiyi's, if he does not practice cultivation techniques and lives like a mortal, without dying from accidents, can live to sixty years old.

The longevity wheel, constitution, and life palace all have levels, from low to high: Mortal, Postnatal, Prenatal, Imperial, Holy, and Immortal!

Although the levels of the longevity wheel, constitution, and life palace are the same, there is one difference. In principle, the levels of the longevity wheel and life palace cannot be changed; they are innate. Only the constitution can be changed through cultivation! For example, a prenatal constitution can be advanced to an imperial constitution through the practice of imperial body techniques!
