Chapter 87

Each type of cultivation technique has a different number of foundational techniques based on its category.

For example, in the case of Ye Xiao's previous Overlord Saber technique, some foundational techniques focus on cultivating external saber combat skills, some focus on cultivating saber intent, and others focus on cultivating internal energy for saber techniques...

This is why, in this world, after cultivating a technique, it can be directly used to accumulate and enhance one's cultivation.

Because the technique itself already includes the cultivation of internal energy.

Similarly, the foundational techniques of body refinement are also like this.

For instance, when Fa Zheng gave a speech at the graduation ceremony of the Jianghai Martial Arts College, he mentioned a body refinement technique, which is an external technique, similar to the Shaolin Iron Shirt. Since Fa Zheng clearly could not impart such a high-level technique as the Iron Shirt, he could only mention a lower-level technique derived from it.

However, for Ye Xiao, as long as it belongs to the same category, his divine soul only needs the basic techniques.

It works by evenly spreading the spiritual energy within the body under the skin, defending the entire body.

However, it also has its weakness, which is that it needs to leave an opening for the body to absorb spiritual energy.

This is a flaw of the technique. After all, if it had no flaws, its rank would not be that of an ordinary technique, but rather a grandmaster-level technique.

The other body refinement techniques that Ye Xiao cultivates include strengthening the internal organs, enhancing the limbs' attack points, and strengthening the brain...

The Golden Bell Cover is an internal technique in the body refinement category, focusing on cultivating internal energy.

After cultivating this technique, one can counter the weakness of the Iron Shirt, which requires leaving an opening when performing techniques.

It can be said to make up for the flaws of the Iron Shirt and other foundational techniques.

Moreover, the Golden Bell Cover is a grandmaster-level technique!

Although Ye Xiao only needs the basic techniques, the old monk Fa Zheng is really good to him.

This technique is a valuable one even on a national scale, and in the Shaolin Martial Arts College, only professors and above have the chance to access it.

Jinshu recorded the Golden Bell Cover and quickly began cultivating it, while Ye Xiao lay on the sofa, eating sunflower seeds.

By the late night, the cultivation should be complete, and then he can proceed with the fusion.

But at this moment, he suddenly sensed some movement outside.

With a sweep of the Tai Xuang Tian Gang, he understood.

"Ruli."

He kicked the sleeping Ruli, who was curled up on the other corner of the sofa.

"Don't bother me, I want to sleep."

Ruli mumbled, turned over, and Ye Xiao kicked her again.

"Do you want a big meat bun for breakfast tomorrow?"

"No! I want to sleep."

"What about a crab roe soup bun?"

"No! I want to sleep."

"One big meat bun and one crab roe soup bun."

Ruli sat up from the sofa in one swift motion.

"What do you want? I'm very sleepy, solve it quickly."

"There are a few rats outside, go deal with them. Once you're done, you can continue sleeping."

"What about the buns?"

"I'll buy them tomorrow morning."

"Wait a minute."

Ye Xiao continued eating sunflower seeds, while Ruli transformed into a cat, slightly opened the iron door, and slipped out through the gap.

Outside the courtyard, a few star beasts quietly surrounded the area, hiding in the grass outside the courtyard, staring intently at it.

"This is that lackey's courtyard."

"It's all because of that lackey. If he hadn't led that old bald monk, we wouldn't have lost so many brothers."

"Everyone, get ready, act quickly to avoid being discovered by other humans. Once inside, Niu Er will lock the legs, Yang Mei will lock the arms, and Toad Thirteen will cover the mouth."

"What if he bites me?"

"You have thick skin."

"But it still hurts if he bites me!"

"Sit on his face, if he bites you, pee in his mouth."

Toad Thirteen's eyes lit up, and she started to tremble with excitement.

"I can't hold it, I want to pee now."

"Hold it! Make it yellow and concentrated! Flush..."

Before she could finish, the air suddenly became quiet.

Niu Er quietly said:

"Where's Niu Da?"

"I don't know, did he rush in?"

"No, his speed isn't that fast..."

The air fell silent again.

"Toad Thirteen? Toad, where did you go?"

Niu Er and Yang Mei exchanged glances, swallowed hard, and saw the fear in each other's eyes.

"Run!"

Yang Mei shouted, turned, and ran. Niu Er, not daring to be careless, immediately turned and ran in another direction.

But just as he started, a powerful force struck him from behind, knocking him to the ground.

Bang!

Pain surged in his back, and Niu Er's eyes were filled with terror.

Yang Mei, who had just escaped, was already dead, his eyes frozen in terror.

A deadly pressure came from behind, and he forced himself to turn his head, wanting to see who had killed them!

But unfortunately, when he turned his head, all he saw was a sharp claw mark growing larger and larger in his pupils.

...

After dealing with the few star beasts, Ruli licked her paw and sighed.

"Ah! Since I followed Ye Xiao, my treatment has gotten worse.

In the past, I could steal as many buns as I wanted, but now I have to work to eat a bun."

Just as she finished speaking, she suddenly sensed a strong fluctuation from the courtyard.

This fluctuation was imperceptible to ordinary people, but Ruli and Ye Xiao had a master-servant contract, so she could clearly sense it.

This made her frown.

"Really? This guy is getting stronger again? I just broke through to the second rank of grandmaster, and I haven't even caught up, and he's breaking through again. Is he trying to make it impossible for others to live?"

But after a moment, her eyes regained their determination.

"Hmph! So what if he gets stronger? If you get stronger, I will too! It's just a matter of time before I surpass you.

I've decided, I'll serve as a servant for three hundred years, and after three hundred years, I will definitely turn the tables and make you my human pet!"

...

In the living room, Ye Xiao was indeed fusing.

After cultivating the Golden Bell Cover to the Great Perfection stage, he immediately began the fusion.

The Golden Book emitted a brilliant light.

Stone!

More!

Bow!

Although!

Long!

Rice!

And!

Long!

...

As usual, each page would display a golden character, which would then merge into one, forming a top-tier technique.

The Indestructible Golden Body Technique!

Complete!

"Turns out it's the Indestructible Golden Body Technique, how powerful!"
