Fang Chen was startled when he heard Elder Jin's words. Soon after, he nodded his head heavily.
"No wonder." Elder Jin nodded with a smile after receiving Fang Chen's affirmation.
"Elder Jin, how did you discover my sword body?" Fang Chen asked curiously.
"When you used your physical strength, there was an extremely wild aura surrounding your body. I guessed that it must be a sword body. Sure enough, that was the case," said Elder Jin with a smile.
Although Fang Chen already possessed a sword body, his understanding of sword bodies was still lacking. Now that he heard Elder Jin say this, he seemed to have a better understanding of sword bodies.
"Fang Chen, do you understand sword bodies?" Elder Jin suddenly asked.
Fang Chen nodded, then shook his head. Elder Jin instantly understood Fang Chen's meaning and said, "Let me explain it to you."
"On our Ancient Sword Continent, the physical body cultivation system that has been passed down since ancient times basically starts with the most ordinary physical body. Then it goes from a one-star body to a nine-star body.
Of course, this is only the most traditional physical body cultivation system. It is also the cultivation system that we still use to this day. "Elder Jin slowly explained.
"After tens of thousands of years of evolution, countless shocking geniuses have appeared in the physical body Dao. They have constantly explored the mysteries of the physical body Dao. Finally, after countless years, they have explored an even more advanced physical body cultivation system."
"That is the sword body you currently possess. Of course, the sword body is only one of many special constitutions. There are also some, such as the saber body, the staff body, and so on. In any case, there are many types.
However, it is extremely difficult to transform into this kind of special constitution. It is many times more difficult than cultivating the martial path. "
"Let me put it this way. In the entire Ancient Sword Continent, the number of cultivators who can possess a sword body like yours can be counted on one hand. Think about it. What kind of concept is that?" asked Elder Jin.
Hearing Elder Jin's explanation, Fang Chen finally realized just how difficult it was to transform a dao body into a sword body.
"Fortunately, I have the golden heart," Fang Chen said softly as he glanced at the golden heart lying quietly on the ground.
It was not an exaggeration to say that his current achievements were all because of the golden heart. If he did not have the golden heart, he would probably be an ordinary disciple of the Azure Edge Sword Sect of the Divine Wind Nation.
Moreover, Fang Chen suspected that his transmigration had something to do with the golden heart. If he could uncover the true mysteries of the golden heart, he might be able to return to Earth.
Of course, this was just Fang Chen's imagination.
Right now, he needed to survive on the Ancient Sword Continent. Of course, he also wanted to see what the pinnacle of martial arts was.
After coming to the Ancient Sword Continent for so many years, Fang Chen had gradually gotten used to life on the Ancient Sword Continent. Here, the strong were respected. As long as you had the strength, you could get what you wanted.
Life here was magnificent. To this day, Fang Chen had not even left the Five Elements Province of the Ancient Sword Continent. The Nanling Land was just a small place.
This place was already extremely exciting. What about the Ancient Sword Continent?
Even more exciting things were waiting for Fang Chen.
"In the history of our Barren Sect, there was once a special body type. However, it was not the Sword Body, but the Fist Body.
The Fist Body was as tyrannical as the Sword Body. The disciple who possessed the Fist Body cultivated a powerful fist art. With a single punch, he suppressed all the core disciples of the Barren Sect. That kind of strength made even us elders feel ashamed. "Elder Jin was lost in his memories.
Fang Chen was shocked. Suppressing all the core disciples of the Barren Sect with a single punch? Not to mention others, the core disciples of the Barren Sect were all at the fifth or sixth level of the Condensing Reality Realm. Some were even stronger.
Suppressing all the core disciples with a single punch. Just thinking about such a scene was enough to make one excited.
"Therefore, the most suitable thing for you is to cultivate sword arts. One day, you will be like him, suppressing all the core disciples of the Barren Sect with a single sword." Elder Jin looked at Fang Chen and said sincerely.
Fang Chen shook his head slightly. He was not so arrogant as to think that he could easily reach that level.
"Fang Chen, I'm afraid that you still don't understand the grades of special body types. Strictly speaking, special body types have already surpassed the category of Dao Body. Special body types also have their own grades." Elder Jin said.
"Grades?" Fang Chen's eyes lit up as he asked.
"Solid Body, Refined Body, and Refined Body. As of now, on the Ancient Sword Continent, there are only these three grades for special body types. These three grades correspond to the Nine Star Dao Body. As for whether there are higher grades above these three grades, I do not know." Elder Jin said slowly.
Take Fang Chen's Sword Body as an example.
Solid Body, as the name suggests, was to completely stabilize the sword intent within the sword body, allowing the user to completely control the sword body. This was the Solid Body.
The Solid Body realm was equivalent to a Nine Star Dao Body. However, under the same grade, special body types were slightly better than Dao Bodies.
Refined Body, as the name suggests, was to make use of the sword body to train the sword intent, allowing the sword intent to perfectly merge with the sword body.
Refined Body was the last realm of special body types. It was also the most domineering realm. This realm determined the future development of a warrior.
Refined Body, as the name suggests, was to completely refine the sword intent within the sword body into the physical body, allowing the sword intent to merge with the physical body.
When the Sword Body reached the Refined Body realm, the strength of the physical body would reach the peak. A punch would be enough to destroy a mountain or a piece of land.
After listening to Elder Jin's introduction, Fang Chen finally had some understanding of the Sword Body.
Although Fang Chen did not have much understanding of the Ancient Era's physical body cultivation system, he could vaguely feel that there should be a higher realm above Refined Body.
Of course, all of this was because he knew that there were extraterrestrials outside the Ancient Sword Continent.
"Your current Sword Body realm should have reached the Initial Stage of Refined Body, which is equivalent to a Four Star Dao Body. This kind of physical strength is nothing in the Ancient Sword Continent. However, your Sword Body will be stronger than a Dao Body in the later stages. Especially when the Sword Body is cultivated to the end, when combined with your swordsmanship, its power will increase by several times." Elder Jin said.
Fang Chen nodded his head, carefully recalling everything that Elder Jin had said today. It seemed like the mysteries of the Sword Body were not as simple as he had imagined.
"Thank you for your guidance, Elder Jin." Fang Chen cupped his hands and thanked him.
Elder Jin shook his head slightly, then said, "You are a disciple of the Barren Sect, and you also have a special body type. Naturally, I will teach you. Oh right, do you have a physical body cultivation method?"
Suddenly, Elder Jin asked.
Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, then said, "When my physical body was still a Dao Body, there was a physical body cultivation method. However, after my Dao Body became a Sword Body, I felt that the cultivation method was not suitable for me."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Elder Jin stroked his beard and laughed heartily, "Hahaha, of course it is not suitable for you. Your physical body has already become a Sword Body, so there is no need for you to cultivate such an inferior cultivation method."
"There are quite a few physical body cultivation techniques in the Physical Body School's Cultivation Technique Hall. Most of them are Dao Body cultivation techniques. However, there is a Cultivation Technique that is incomplete. It was passed down by the Desolate Sect from a very long time ago. Go and give it a try," Elder Jin said.
"Try it?" Fang Chen asked, puzzled.
"This Cultivation Technique is very strange. Ordinary cultivators can't even get close to it. It has been stored in our Cultivation Technique Hall for many years. No one has been able to obtain it. Even the Fist Body back then couldn't obtain it. Maybe you can succeed," Elder Jin said with a smile.
Fang Chen thought for a moment and said, "I can try it."
A moment later, Elder Jin brought Fang Chen to the Physical Body Cultivation Method Hall. Elder Jin then greeted the Elders of the Cultivation Method Hall and allowed Fang Chen to enter.
Creak
The doors to the Cultivation Method Hall opened and Fang Chen entered. What entered his eyes was a dazzling array of bookshelves. On each bookshelf were some books. These books were all physical body cultivation methods.
From the beginning, it was an ordinary physical body cultivation method. Later on, it was a Dao Body cultivation method.
Casually looking around, Fang Chen was shocked to find that the Cultivation Method Hall's cultivation methods could only be purchased with spirit stones. Furthermore, the spirit stones required were extremely large.
He casually picked up a Dao Body cultivation method. Strictly speaking, it should be a third rank cultivation method. The price here was a hundred thousand high grade spirit stones.
Fang Chen then saw a fourth rank cultivation method. The price was a million high grade spirit stones.
"So expensive." Fang Chen was puzzled.
"Kid, these cultivation methods are very good for you. A million high grade spirit stones is already cheap enough. You don't need to waste time looking at these. Hurry up and look at that incomplete book." Ancestor Bronze suddenly opened his mouth to speak.
Fang Chen was startled. He immediately asked, "Ancestor, do you know what Elder Jin is talking about?"
"Nonsense. I've lived for so long. Of course I know," said Ancestor Bronze.
Fang Chen nodded and quickly walked to the last bookshelf. There was only one book on this bookshelf.
Fang Chen arrived in front of this bookshelf. There was a yellowed book on the bookshelf. The book was completely empty. There wasn't a single word on it.
Fang Chen tried to use his soul to examine this book. However, he found that this book was isolated from his soul.
"So strange." Fang Chen said.
Then, Fang Chen approached the book step by step. To Fang Chen's surprise, this book didn't reject Fang Chen from beginning to end.
Moreover, the closer Fang Chen got, the more irritated the book was. It seemed to be trembling.
In the end, Fang Chen directly walked to the book and grabbed it. Suddenly, his golden heart beat rapidly.
Fang Chen opened the book and found that there were four big words written on it. Small Success Sword Body.
"So it's a sword body cultivation method. No wonder the fist body couldn't get close to it." Fang Chen saw these four words and smiled.
The reason why he was able to obtain the book so easily was probably because he had a sword body.
Even though Fang Chen didn't look at the content of the manual, he could tell that the Lesser Mastery Sword Body was extraordinary, and it was definitely suitable for him.
"It's barely suitable for your current cultivation method."
Ancestor Bronze spoke again. Seeing Fang Chen's proud expression, he directly said, "It's just an incomplete book. What are you so proud of? It would be great if it was the complete book."
"Ancestor, you know about this book?" Fang Chen asked hurriedly.
