Chapter 6

After Wu Yu came back to life, to avoid trouble, he had Sun Wudao spread the news of his revival. The miscellaneous servants on Yan Lifeng Peak marveled at Wu Yu's tenacious life, and the news also reached Su Yanli.

Perhaps because Wu Yu was killed by other outer sect disciples, Su Yanli gave Wu Yu a month to rest and recuperate. Thus, Wu Yu had the opportunity to focus entirely on pursuing his lifelong dream!

"Grandpa Sun, I'm going to Green Leaf Valley for a walk to clear my mind." Every day, Wu Yu set off early in the morning, sometimes even waking up earlier than Sun Wudao.

"This Wu Yu, after such a great calamity, has become quite agile." Sun Wudao watched as Wu Yu quickly disappeared into the mountains, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

He didn't pay much attention, as long as Wu Yu could relax and forget his hatred, anything was fine.

Indeed, Wu Yu didn't tell Sun Wudao about his transformation.

Firstly, his greatest desire was the one and only opportunity to enter the immortal sect in a month, which was the biggest dream of both Wu Yu and Sun Wudao. However, Wu Yu was not yet very confident, given only a month's time. He was worried about disappointing Sun Wudao.

Secondly, Wu Yu wanted to show his strength on that day to surprise Sun Wudao! The old man had taken good care of him these days, so Wu Yu wanted to see Sun Wudao's pride. That might be the most important day of Wu Yu's life!

Before the sun rose, sweat had already soaked Wu Yu's clothes.

He searched through the mountains, leaping between trees like a monkey, thoroughly exercising his limbs and muscles.

He wasted almost no time throughout the day.

"Ha ha..."

Heavy breathing echoed through the mountains.

Wu Yu moved swiftly on all fours, with many branches and leaves leaving bloody scratches on his skin, but he paid no attention.

Faintly visible, golden threads of spiritual energy gathered from the surrounding air, merging into his flesh and blood.

When the sun rose, the golden spiritual energy became even more abundant.

Wu Yu's body was constantly growing stronger.

Bang!

Inattentive, he fell from a tree two zhang high, covered in mud.

"Continue!"

This was the only chance!

For this moment, he had endured so much hardship, and Wu Yu knew how precious everything was now.

He got up, drenched in sweat, and continued his practice.

"This 'Indestructible Body of Vajra' is truly profound. Just the first level is divided into ten stages, with ten major techniques!"

"Back then, the 'Dongwu Imperial Scripture' I practiced was just a secret manual, directly recording the methods for the ten levels of martial arts, without dividing them into ten major techniques. The first martial arts technique of my Dongyue Wu Kingdom is just trash compared to this 'Indestructible Body of Vajra'!"

The Mortal Body Refinement Realm, the first level, is called 'Flesh Refinement.'

In the 'Indestructible Body of Vajra,' the first stage technique is called 'Vajra Flesh Refinement.'

Wu Yu now officially practiced according to 'Vajra Flesh Refinement,' with great intensity, but the effects seemed equally significant. Especially with Wu Yu's experience of the fifth level of martial arts, his progress was very rapid.

As the name suggests, the Body Refinement Realm is about refining the body, which requires intense training, especially the first level of the Body Refinement Realm, which demands even more intense training.

Every day, Wu Yu ran through the mountains, leaping like a monkey, or diving to the river bottom, enduring the immense pressure of the water, holding his breath, and striking with his fists underwater.

Or standing under a waterfall, letting the endless heavy water pound his back.

Or striking a giant tree with a diameter of three feet with his fists like a madman!

Day after day!

'Vajra Flesh Refinement' is the entry point for all this, and it is extremely arduous, a process that ordinary people can hardly bear. But Wu Yu's mental fortitude was beyond imagination.

During his intense training, he always kept in mind the goal of entering the immortal sect, to fulfill his and Sun Wudao's dreams, and to remember the enmity of Dongwu and the faces of the immortals like Hao Tian.

"Time is running out, charge!"

"Vajra from the heavens, refine my flesh and blood!"

At noon, Wu Yu rushed to the mountain peak, sweating under the scorching sun, striking the rocks on the mountain top with his fists.

"Vajra is forged through a thousand hammerings and temperings!"

"I have little time, so I must put in ten times the effort of others! If others throw one punch, I must throw ten!"

Bang bang bang bang!

The giant rock on the mountain top trembled continuously, and day by day, cracks began to appear. Wu Yu's limbs were already worn out, but in the destroyed flesh and blood, new flesh and blood were born!

Golden threads of spiritual energy circulated in his flesh and blood. Especially when the sun was at its hottest, there were more golden threads.

Not just on his fists, but all over his body were wounds.

The pain from these wounds was intense, but for Wu Yu, who was in a state of madness, it was nothing. Especially when diving into the river bottom with wounds, the pain was even more unbearable, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.

"Without tempering the will, how can one become the supreme martial artist? Without becoming the supreme martial artist, how can one enter the immortal path!"

"I want to become an immortal! I must be reborn from death!"

Intense training brought extreme hunger, and Wu Yu had to eat many wild animals and treasures found in the mountains every day, but unfortunately, there were not many.

"Only if I become a disciple of the Tongtian Sword Sect, will I have the qualifications to enjoy those resources. Then, my progress will definitely be faster."

This was also Wu Yu's motivation. He knew that there were many rare treasures in the world that he could not imagine at his current level.

"Boom!"

Five days later, the giant rock in front of him exploded.

"Break!"

A roar shook the heavens, and the energy in his chest burst forth, giving him a sense of transcendence!

Under the scorching sun, it felt as if the sun's fire had burned onto his body. The dense spiritual energy surged from the wounds all over his body, refining his flesh and blood. At this moment, Wu Yu transcended and entered the first level of the Body Refinement Realm!

In his body, golden threads of spiritual energy gathered, converging in one direction, and finally formed a palm-sized '卍' symbol on his back.

A golden symbol!

Strength!

The feeling of strength returned to his body.

"Vajra Flesh Refinement, finally completed!"

Wu Yu, bare-chested, wearing only a black long pants, stood on the mountain peak. His body, though lean, was well-defined with muscles, with a faint golden glow flowing through them, converging on the golden '卍' symbol on his back!

"Roar!"

To the vast heavens, Wu Yu let out his first roar.

He had returned!

Reaching the first level again, but the feeling was completely different from the last time.

"Just in terms of strength, it is equivalent to the power of three warhorses, three times that of an ordinary first-level Body Refinement Realm! At the same time, there are two unexpected effects."

"First, Vajra Flesh Refinement makes the body resilient. Just the first level is like this, and if I complete the 'Indestructible Body of Vajra,' will I really have a copper head and iron bones, impervious to blades and bullets?"

This was what Wu Yu most looked forward to. After all, even immortals are made of flesh and blood. If he had a copper head and iron bones, impervious to blades and bullets, who would be his match?

Even standing still, others could not harm him.

"Second, my flesh and blood's recovery ability exceeds that of ordinary people. I have suffered many injuries these days, but without herbs, they seem to heal on their own. I wonder if in the future, I will really be indestructible, able to regenerate from a single drop of blood!"

Several times the strength, several times the body's resilience, and several times the recovery ability of the flesh and blood!

Although it was only the first level of the Body Refinement Realm, Wu Yu's blood and qi were already more powerful than imagined.

"The second stage technique, 'Vajra Tendons,' when completed, will make the tendons as strong as vajra!"

Wu Yu had a premonition that the profundity of the 'Indestructible Body of Vajra' was just the tip of the iceberg!

He did not rest at all and began the second level, 'Vajra Tendons.'

The second level of the Body Refinement Realm, tendon refinement.

Tendon refinement is slightly different from flesh refinement, focusing on the tendons, so the training methods are different, but even more arduous. However, Wu Yu had experience at this level, and his mental fortitude was even stronger now, and the techniques were more profound. Although time was limited, his progress was significant!

A few days later, Wu Yu achieved great success again, with his tendons refined to be even stronger than his flesh and blood, like steel ropes, but not just hard, also incredibly resilient.

Tendons are also the foundation of strength. After reaching the second level of the Body Refinement Realm, Wu Yu directly possessed the strength of ten warhorses!

"Just reaching the second level, I didn't expect my strength to already be one-fifth of what it was before!"

For Wu Yu, the 'Indestructible Body of Vajra' was terrifyingly profound, and he realized he had truly obtained a great treasure.

Now, under the scorching sun, besides the refined and explosive flesh and blood, a dense network of golden tendons covered his entire body, but this was just the beginning of his cultivation.

"The third stage technique, 'Golden Flame Bones'!"

"Must be cultivated to the point where the bones are like gold, pure and fiery!"

With golden bones as the framework of the body, blood and bones fused, and spiritual energy gathered, until the bones could produce golden flames, that would be considered a great success.

The first level of the 'Indestructible Body of Vajra,' the first thousand characters, served as the foundation for body refinement.

From flesh and blood, to tendons, to bones!

For now, Wu Yu did not think too much about the future. But he knew that if he could reach the tenth level of martial arts, 'Supreme Martial God,' he would probably not fear even Hao Tian.

Reaching the second level of the Body Refinement Realm took a total of eleven days.

The Tongtian Sword Sect announced the specific date of the miscellaneous servant examination, and after careful calculation, there were twenty-one days left. Wu Yu did not have high hopes, but now he truly felt it was possible.

"The sixth level of the Body Refinement Realm, normally possessing the strength of a hundred warhorses. If I have the strength of a hundred warhorses, others will think I have reached the sixth level and have the qualifications to participate!"

The more the body is refined, the more the strength increases.

To prepare for the battle on that day, Wu Yu also reviewed his former martial arts.

It is said that the immortal path has Dao techniques, and Hao Tian knows Dao techniques, which is truly unbelievable. The tenth level of the Body Refinement Realm is still a mortal, and temporarily unable to cultivate Dao techniques.

Besides Dao techniques, there are martial arts in the mortal world. The Body Refinement Realm of the immortal sects actually uses mortal martial arts.

Martial arts are divided into lower, middle, and upper grades. After coming to the Tongtian Sword Sect, Wu Yu learned that even mortal martial arts have an upper-grade level.

He had the resources of the Dongwu Imperial Family and learned many martial arts, the strongest of which was the secret manual of the Dongwu Imperial Family, a middle-grade martial art, but with a great reputation, called the 'Donghai Zhanjing Sword'!

It is said that this martial art was created by an ancient supreme martial artist who fought the waves of the East Sea and killed giant whales. The Dongyue Wu Kingdom is by the East Sea, so they obtained this tradition.

However, with Wu Yu's current level, he could not yet fully unleash the power of the Donghai Zhanjing Sword as before, so he reviewed a lower-grade martial art, the 'Tiger Roar Dragon Fist.'

Although it is a lower-grade martial art, it is the most powerful fist technique among lower-grade martial arts, with the might of dragons and tigers.

In addition, there is a footwork technique called the 'Monkey Ghost Steps.'

In the past, Wu Yu used the Monkey Ghost Steps to charge into an army of ten thousand, using the Donghai Zhanjing Sword to cut off the head of an enemy general, and the whole country celebrated!

Revisiting his once familiar martial arts was naturally very smooth, like water flowing naturally.

His combat power greatly increased.

Until late at night, Wu Yu was still refining his techniques and footwork!

Thud thud thud!

A giant tree, under the impact of Wu Yu's Tiger Roar Dragon Fist, split from the middle, and the cracks increased, finally collapsing with a loud bang.

"Clap clap!"

At this moment, applause came from the side.

"Trouble, too immersed in training, forgot to pay attention to the surroundings." Wu Yu's mind was shaken, and he quickly looked over. In the dark forest, six towering figures broke through the darkness, grinning, and walked toward him.
