Chapter 4

In martial arts cultivation, the Body Refinement Realm is the entry-level realm. In this realm, the focus is on refining flesh and blood and forging the meridians and bones. Even without cultivation techniques, ordinary people can practice on their own. However, without cultivation techniques, ordinary people can only reach the fifth level of Body Refinement, and it becomes almost impossible to advance further after that.

This is precisely why cultivation techniques are considered extremely precious.

Lin Tian calmed his mind and began to comprehend the Four Extremes Scripture. The deeper he delved, the more astonished he became. Generally speaking, ordinary Body Refinement techniques can only be cultivated up to the ninth level of Body Refinement. However, the Four Extremes Scripture can be practiced continuously, making the physical body stronger and stronger, with no end in sight. It is truly a top-tier Body Refinement divine technique.

Moreover, Lin Tian believed that throughout the entire Northern Flame Kingdom, there was no Body Refinement technique that could compare to the Four Extremes Scripture.

Lin Tian's eyes were resolute, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.

With the Four Extremes Scripture, he could truly embark on the path of cultivation.

"Martial arts, cultivation, this world is truly fascinating."

Lin Tian muttered to himself.

It was his first time coming into contact with cultivation, and to be honest, Lin Tian was somewhat excited and bewildered. However, having lived two lives, his state of mind was ultimately much higher than that of ordinary people, and he quickly calmed down.

He looked down at the little girl sleeping in his arms, turned his head to look at the faint firelight in the darkness, and his eyes flashed with an unusual brilliance.

"Mosen, Xiao Yun, you just wait!"

He clenched his fists.

...

The moonlight was like water, and a faint silver glow spread over the earth.

Lin Tian leaned against a thick tree trunk, glanced at the sleeping Lin Xi, closed his eyes, and began to breathe at a special frequency. From a distance, starlight condensed into threads, one by one entering his body, creating a mysterious scene.

He was cultivating the Four Extremes Scripture!

As starlight entered his body, it quickly reached saturation. Lin Tian began to circulate the Four Extremes Scripture, and in an instant, the starlight in his body seemed to transform into sharp blades, cutting his flesh and blood as if to reforge them.

Lin Tian felt intense pain, and sweat immediately covered his forehead. He wanted to shout, but he held back, not wanting to wake the little girl who was sleeping beside him.

In the night sky, starlight poured down, entering Lin Tian's body. At this moment, Lin Tian was circulating the Four Extremes Scripture, enduring immense pain, gritting his teeth to support himself. Large sweat drops rolled down his cheeks. Gradually, the sound of wind and thunder echoed within his body, and the pain became even more intense.

That night, leaning against the thick tree trunk, Lin Tian endured the piercing pain, repeatedly circulating the Four Extremes Scripture. Several times, he almost fainted from the pain, but he pushed through, breaking his own limits.

Soon, the stars in the sky disappeared, and a hint of light appeared on the horizon.

As dawn approached, the air in the mountains was slightly humid. Lin Tian opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and invigorated, with his entire body filled with strength.

"This is the cultivation of a martial artist, truly amazing!"

Lin Tian whispered.

After a whole night of cultivation, he had now reached the third level of Body Refinement.

The Body Refinement Realm is divided into nine levels. The first three levels focus on refining flesh and blood, the middle three levels on refining tendons and bones, and the last three levels on refining internal organs. After a martial artist reaches the ninth level of Body Refinement, they can draw more天地灵气 (heavenly and earthly energy) into their body, stimulating the Dao points throughout their body, connecting all the meridians, and forming divine meridians within their body, thus reaching the next realm, known as the Divine Meridian Realm.

The Divine Meridian Realm is also divided into nine levels. After a martial artist condenses nine divine meridians, they gather the power of these nine meridians to open a divine sea in their head, allowing them to observe the heavens and earth, analyze all things, and possess extremely formidable strength. This realm is known as the Divine Sea Realm, and martial artists at this level have extraordinary combat power, even the imperial royal family must show respect.

After that, there is the formidable Air Control Realm. Martial artists at this level can freely manipulate heavenly and earthly energy and can fly through the air, possessing boundless terror. Before the power of Air Control Realm experts, imperial authority is just a joke. If such experts were willing, they could easily destroy an empire.

"Body Refinement, Divine Meridian, Divine Sea, Air Control, the world of martial artists is truly interesting."

Lin Tian thought to himself.

Subsequently, he closed his eyes and let his body slowly adapt to the strength of the third level of Body Refinement.
