Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist

Chapter 448 - 258: Ten Great Buddha Soldiers! Divine Intent Imperial Objects!

The Nine Yin Scripture, Indestructible Glazed Body, and Talismans are what Master Xuanxin considered his three treasures.

The Nine Yin Scripture and Indestructible Glazed Body were his original strengths.

The Talismans were external items used to enhance the power of the Nine Yin Scripture and Indestructible Glazed Body.

In his battle with Kong Wo of the Great Buddha Temple, he indeed thought he had underestimated Kong Wo’s cultivation and the temple’s foundation.

In that battle, although he carried five hundred Talismans, he ended up using only fifty.

Not only because Kong Wo’s Eighteen Feet Golden Body was harder to break than he imagined.

But also because the Great Buddha Temple surprisingly harbored the "Ten Great Buddha Soldiers."

Merely because Kong Wo had not met a worthy opponent before, they were not used.

Now, facing him, the "Ten Great Buddha Soldiers" were revealed.

Buddha Soldiers are weapons infused with the Divine Intent of Buddha.

When Kong Wo employed the Buddha Soldiers, he could summon Buddha’s power to fight, making it incredibly challenging.

So, Master Xuanxin temporarily avoided confronting Kong Wo, using up all thirty Light Body Talismans to escape, planning to draw another thousand Talismans before engaging with Kong Wo again.

Drawing Talismans is not easy.

Every Talisman drawn requires a significant expenditure of Essence Qi and Spirit.

After all, to imbue Heaven and Earth Power into a piece of yellow paper, and to only use a small amount of True Qi and Spirit during its use, a lot of effort is needed when drawing Talismans.

However, by drawing Talismans one day and practicing Martial Arts the next, he managed to draw over six hundred Talismans in a month.

Additionally, there were over three hundred Talismans he had drawn earlier and left in the sect.

He now has nearly a thousand Talismans.

He feels that even if Kong Wo were to visit him now, he would not be afraid.

After drawing two more Talismans, Master Xuanxin gestured to a Daoist standing by the Magic Altar.

The Daoist immediately retrieved a wooden box from his garments.

The box was exquisitely crafted, and when opened, it revealed a Vermilion Elixir about the size of two thumbs.

The Daoist stepped forward and handed the box to Master Xuanxin.

Master Xuanxin took the Elixir and put it in his mouth.

Instantly, his complexion became much rosier.

The Essence Qi and Spirit lost from drawing Talismans were gradually recovering.

"Who’s there?"

Suddenly, Master Xuanxin’s long white eyebrow furrowed as he swiftly turned to look down the mountain.

Simultaneously, he flicked his robe sleeve.

Instantly, with a swish, each wide sleeve held about a hundred Talismans, flowing out of the wide sleeves like a stream.

Then, one by one, they floated beside him.

Su Que guessed correctly; this old Daoist had indeed reached the Tribulation Seed Realm.

The Tribulation Seed Realm is divided into seven stages, and this old Daoist had reached the second stage, Imperial Objects.

Although the Tribulation Seed Realm ultimately leads to Unity of Spirit and Body, it begins beyond the Divine Realm to further cultivate Spirit.

The first stage of the Tribulation Seed Realm is called "Divine Separation."

This is the process of dividing one’s Spirit into several parts.

As long as it can be divided into nine parts, "Divine Separation" is considered complete.

Why is it called the Tribulation Seed Realm? It’s because each stage is a tribulation.

For Martial Artists, cultivating "Divine Separation" is not easy.

In the history of Martial Arts, many who attempted "Divine Separation" failed to reunite their spirits, leading to madness.

Many Great Demons in the history of Martial Arts who slaughtered innocents without reason did so because they failed at "Divine Separation."

After successfully cultivating "Divine Separation," one advances to the second stage of the Tribulation Seed, Imperial Objects.

Martial Artists typically use Gang Qi to control objects in the Gang Condensing Realm.

But this control is neither smooth nor can it cover a large area.

Most Martial Artists at this stage use Gang Qi not to control objects but to seize people.

Skills like Dragon-Grasping Hand and Crane Control Skill, which can grasp objects from a distance, require the Martial Arts Cultivation of the Gang Condensing Realm to perform.

In cultivating the "Imperial Objects" of the Tribulation Seed Realm, one separates their Divine Thoughts and infuses them into objects.

This allows objects to move according to one’s will.

Master Xuanxin had reached the "Imperial Objects" stage of the Tribulation Seed Realm.

At the same time Master Xuanxin released about two hundred Talismans, he immediately injected True Qi and Divine Intent into fifty Vajra Talismans.

In an instant, a power of the Five Elements of Metal radiated from the Talismans, infusing into his body, protecting his skin, flesh, and organs.

Although his Indestructible Glazed Body could also repel weapons, he didn’t know the strength of the approaching person, so he naturally used the Vajra Talismans.

Additionally, his True Qi and Divine Intent were also infused into about fifty Qi Enhancement Talismans.

The Qi Enhancement Talismans emitted a faint light, drawing waves of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into his Meridians.

When he activated the Nine Yin Scripture, his True Qi circulated faster, and his Inner Strength became more robust.

Suddenly, a whirlwind rose around him.

And he was the eye of the storm.

His hands emitted an invisible force, faintly displaying a Tai Chi Diagram.

"Who are you?"

Master Xuanxin saw a person wearing a martial attire cloak, with long hair flowing with the wind, wearing a fearsome mask, walking up the mountain.

Su Que, as he walked, was sensing Master Xuanxin’s aura.

Though Master Xuanxin’s aura was strong, Su Que clearly felt that it posed no threat to him.

Even when he executed the Seven Injuries Fist, exploding only two Divine Intents, his aura was stronger than Master Xuanxin’s.

The Dark Evil Fist strengthens more the greater the pressure it faces.

He worried that although Master Xuanxin possessed Daoist True Skill, he might be too weak.

Resulting in, even after defeating Master Xuanxin, he could not train the Dark Evil Fist to the Second Heaven.

Fortunately, Master Xuanxin could enhance his strength through Talismans.
