In short, the human body was a huge treasure, the three hundred and sixty-five big acupoints and over a hundred thousand small acupoints, each of them incomparably magical. In order to cultivate the Body Tempering Scripture of the Brahma Monarch, one had to constantly absorb the natural Lingqi and the energy of the stars to strengthen the body, and then continuously open up the human body's many mysterious acupoints.

The [Brahma Monarch Stars Body Tempering Art] was extremely profound and profound. Xu Fan had yet to break through to the first level, so it could be said that he had only scratched the surface.

Immersed in the huge metal barrel, Xu Fan immediately began to circulate the Body Tempering Technique.

In an instant, he could feel the medicinal strength and spirit energy of the medicinal liquid and the world's spirit energy entering his body through the pores of his body. This energy was like a whale absorbing water, and the flow of this energy was extremely huge, much more than the spirit energy he had absorbed earlier.

His heart filled with joy. Xu Fan knew that the massive amount of energy being absorbed was the key to breaking through. He didn't dare to be distracted, and immediately focused his attention to protect and unite.

Xu Fan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, like an old monk meditating. His left leg was extended outwards, his right leg inwards, as Yang Huoyin; his left hand's big finger held the middle finger, while his right big finger entered the left hand. Wipe away evil thoughts, greed, infatuation in your heart... All the distracting thoughts had entered the ethereal state.

The dark red liquid in the barrel slowly began to form a whirlpool, slowly revolving around Xu Fan's body. The dark red liquid in the barrel was the Body Refining Liquid that Xu Fan had concocted.

This step was called body tempering. It was the combination of external medicine and cultivation techniques that simultaneously absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to temper the body, the soul, and the meridians.

At this moment, soaked in the medicine, Xu Fan felt his entire body go numb. At first, it was like countless small insects were crawling all over his body. It was unbearable, but he didn't dare to make any unusual movements. This was the feeling that came with the initial use of the potion. It was also known as the Ant Hut.

In the end, these "little reptiles" were still not satisfied, so they just burrowed under the skin and crawled around under the skin. The pain of the ant shop became even more unbearable.

Although the surface of his body had been numbed to the point where he couldn't feel anything, the surface of his skin was indeed numb and itchy, accompanied by waves of piercing pain.

This kind of feeling made people want to tear off the skin and ruthlessly scratch it!

As the medicinal strength of the Body Refining Liquid and the fast circulation of the《 Brahma Monarch Stars Body Tempering Scripture》 increased, Xu Fan felt the Spiritual Energy gathering within his meridians grow larger and larger, finally becoming a surging torrent.

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly.

With a series of crackling sounds, the meridians that had been toughened up by Xu Fan finally couldn't withstand the powerful energy and began to shatter.

Along with the shattering of his meridians, a wave of excruciating pain assaulted every single one of Xu Fan's nerves, causing him to grit his teeth and break out in a cold sweat.

At this time, even though the pain was unbearable, Xu Fan still sat cross-legged in the middle of the huge metal barrel without moving. His entire body was shrouded in mist. His entire body was flushed red and covered with small cracks, as if he had been cut to pieces.

Traces of blood seeped out from the cracks, and a bloody smell gradually filled the chamber.

Xu Fan felt as if he was being tortured. His entire body was already numb from the pain, and even the circulation of the Brahma Monarch's Stellar Body Tempering Technique was somewhat slow.

"He who suffers is a man of honor! "Persist, persevere …"

He gritted his teeth as he reluctantly started to circulate his cultivation technique. Ignoring the violent spiritual energy in his body, he continued to slowly absorb the berserk medicinal energy and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the Body Refining Liquid.

Very quickly, the boundless spiritual energy within his body was slowly absorbed by his meridians, muscles, liver, kidney, spleen, and lungs. As the spiritual energy spread throughout his body, the tissues within his body also slowly underwent a qualitative change.

Boundless spirit energy constantly washed over Xu Fan's body, refining every bit of impurities within him.

At the same time, in the distant space, threads of invisible star power began to be pulled down by Xu Fan's body and entered his meridians. Along with the boundless spiritual energy, they began to repair and nourish his shattered meridians and were absorbed by his muscles, liver, kidneys, spleen, lungs, and other organs.

After a long time, Xu Fan finally felt the pain in his body lessen a little, but this time, his dantian was still full, and the spiritual energy in his meridians continued to surge.

"It's time! "The breakthrough is happening right now!"

With a slight movement of his spiritual will, he began to channel his true essence according to the cultivation technique. The vast amount of spiritual energy was like a torrent, rotating up and down in his stomach, and the twelve joints in his body relaxed as he breathed in and out, producing a natural burst of energy. His body touched the ground like a spring, tumbling over and over, flashing and moving, passing through the tips of his fingers, touching the ground, reversing the dragonfly, standing upright on the tip of his feet, jumping lightly!

With the movement of Qi Drawing and the control of spiritual energy, the internal organs would react abnormally. They would either squeeze, churn up and down, or sway left and right, becoming one with the true qi and solidifying like iron.

Time and time again, he guided the spirit energy to continue refining and strengthening his body, repairing, breaking, repairing, and breaking again and again. At the same time, as it continued to recover and strengthened with spiritual energy and the power of the stars, its meridians expanded and became tougher and tougher.

At this time, his body was constantly on the verge of breaking, and a large amount of blood was flowing out of his body. At this time, his body was constantly on the verge of breaking, and a large amount of blood was flowing out of his body.

It wasn't just the blood, but also the bone marrow. The impurities in the bones were also taken out of the body.

If one looked closely, they would notice that as Xu Fan continued to temper his bones, they became whiter and whiter.

Dense spirit energy enveloped his entire skeleton, continuously tempering it. Xu Fan felt as if his body had been thrown into a furnace as he received painful tempering. The pain in his body was no less than the pain from his skin and tendons being ripped apart.

However, this is only the first step. If one wanted to break through the first layer of the Body Tempering Scripture and refine their own body into the Frozen Muscle Jade Bones, the pain and suffering they would have to endure would be far from over.

Very soon, as all of the impurities in his body were removed, Xu Fan suddenly felt a sense of emptiness within his body. It was as if all of the internal organs in his body had disappeared.

"I have already completed the refining process. The next step is to fill my body with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the power of the stars, constantly tempering my bones, strengthening my meridians and the body, making them incomparably hard, emitting the luster of jade, making my meridians wider and tougher, and gathering the strength of my body. Only in this way can I be considered to have broken through the first layer."

Xu Fan understood that now that he had broken through to the critical point, he grit his teeth and endured the extraordinary tempering and washing. The boundless spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the star power from the vast starry sky were madly sucked in by him, then turned into a huge vortex of energy that flooded into his body.

Time slowly passed. Xu Fan was like a puppet as he sat in the large metal barrel without moving. The energy of heaven and earth and the star power formed a vortex around him. Above his head, a huge funnel-shaped vortex appeared.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but as his meridians were being repaired, Xu Fan's entire body was being nourished by the boundless spiritual energy and the star power. The medicinal strength of the Body Refining Liquid in the large metal barrel gradually became thinner and thinner.

From the initial pain to the later comfort, every wash gave Xu Fan a completely different feeling.

Afterwards, the funnel-shaped cyclone above Xu Fan's head gradually became smaller and smaller, until it completely disappeared. Meanwhile, Xu Fan, who was sitting in the large metal barrel, still hadn't moved.

After about two hours, the large metal barrel's Body Refining Liquid finally turned transparent, then black, emitting a fishy smell. When all of the energy in his body was completely absorbed by his meridians and body, Xu Fan stopped circulating his cultivation technique.

At this time, Xu Fan no longer felt any pain in his body. He felt full of energy, as if his entire body was filled with limitless energy. The great power he felt from his body made him feel as if he could shatter a fierce tiger with one punch.

"This power is actually this great?"

Xu Fan quietly used his spiritual sense to examine the inside of his body. At this time, the shattered meridians in his body had already been completely restored. Not only had they expanded who knows how many times, but the meridians had also become much tougher.

According to the explanation regarding the first layer of the [Brahma Monarch's Stellar Body Tempering Scripture], Xu Fan knew that he had successfully broken through to the first layer of the Brahma Monarch's Stellar Body Tempering Technique!

Slowly opening his eyes, Xu Fan stood up from the large metal barrel, his head lowered. He couldn't help but stare blankly.

At this moment, Xu Fan discovered that his entire body was like warm white jade. His skin was as smooth and delicate as an infant's, and a few scars had also disappeared. His body faintly glowed with a faint light, causing his body to glitter like it had been carved out of divine jade.

"Hey, Ice Skin Jade Bones!" "The first layer of the Brahma Monarch Stars Body Tempering Scripture has finally been completed!"

With a slight movement, Xu Fan immediately felt his body brimming with explosive power and an exuberant life force. He felt as if he had been reborn. His body's strength had increased by at least five times compared to before the breakthrough.

Xu Fan couldn't help but let out a faint smile, but he quickly discovered that the black, stinky, stinky liquid in the big metal barrel stank. He couldn't help but cover his nose as he jumped out of the barrel.

"NND must be able to expel the impurities from my body during the breakthrough. It seems like the Body Refinement Liquid has the effect of cleansing tendons and marrow. Fortunately, there's no one else here. If Big Sis Feng saw this, she would've lost a lot of face."

Xu Fan inwardly laughed. He quickly took out a clean set of clothes from his storage pouch and changed into them.

After putting on his clothes, this fellow impatiently performed a series of punching techniques. He soon discovered that every punch he sent out actually carried the sound of a fist whistling through the air.

"Master Cao, isn't this power a little too terrifying?"

Xu Fan looked at his fist in astonishment, not daring to believe it.

However, he was now completely sure that his physical strength alone was enough to sweep away all the ordinary Xiantian experts.

In reality, what Xu Fan didn't know was that his current physical strength wasn't something that those martial arts experts in the mortal world could compare to. His physical strength was already comparable to a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

Breaking through to the first level had already caused such a huge improvement, partly because of the extraordinary profound mysteries of the [Brahma Monarch Stars Body Tempering Scripture], and partly because of this tempering process, Xu Fan had unknowingly stimulated the medicinal properties of all the various spiritual medicines he had consumed over the past decade. At the same time, the essence contained within the body of the Four-winged Heavenly Python had also been stimulated by this tempering process.

The effects of the Brahma Monarch's Stellar Body Tempering Scripture were not bad. Just by relying on this power to cleanse his body of all the impurities and rubbish, it was enough to be called a supreme secret technique. Xu Fan felt as if he had finally opened the treasure, and at the same time became even more determined to continue cultivating this body tempering technique.

"F * ck, although the Brahma Monarch Stars Body Tempering Scripture is indeed a supreme cultivation technique from the ancient times, it is merely a self-abuse training technique. No wonder the scripture says that it is difficult to reach perfection unless one has great willpower. It seems like my future path is still very long …"

Even though the change after breaking through made Xu Fan extremely happy, when he thought back to the process just now, he couldn't help but feel his heart slightly palpitate.

Generally speaking, this breakthrough was a process of breaking, standing, and standing. During this process, the kind of feeling that the cultivator would have to endure would be too unbearable.

Cultivators had never suffered this kind of pain while training their Qi. No wonder everyone said that they needed to train their body, train their Qi, and refine their spirit.

Human cultivators mainly focused on training their Qi. If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Fan had been unable to break through to the fourth stage of the《 Metal Elemental Arts》 and just so happen to have this Body Tempering Scripture, this brat wouldn't have practiced this body forging technique.

As for people who could directly refine spirit, Xu Fan had no idea about this cultivation method.

"..."

On this day, on a main road outside Yan Xia City, a somewhat tanned youth slowly walked towards Yan Xia City. Looking at his demeanor, it was as if he was sightseeing.

This youth wore cloth clothing, his eyebrows were sharp, and his snow-white teeth were the exact opposite of his tanned skin. However, his face always carried a calm expression, as if nothing could attract his attention.

It was noon. The sun was high in the sky and there were few people on the official road. The dark-skinned youth was walking slowly. His eyes were scanning the green mountains and rivers on both sides of the road, looking very comfortable and relaxed.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid hoof steps echoed from behind.

Immediately, the youth heard a loud shout from behind him, "There's a tea house up ahead. Let's go take a rest before entering the city."

Following that, a cloud of dust rolled over as several fast horses galloped past the youth's side.

The dark-skinned youth slightly frowned. He didn't do anything, but the billowing smoke and dust didn't touch him. However, no one noticed this sort of strange thing.

The young man did not say anything and continued to leisurely walk along the road. After a incense stick of time, he arrived at a forest about ten miles away from the Yan Xia city. The young man discovered that there was a tea shop in the woods not far away.

It was just a place for passengers to rest. Passersby who traveled from north to south would usually stop to rest for a moment, drink some tea, eat something, and then enter the city.

He suddenly discovered that the few men on horseback were drinking tea in the tea house in the forest. Judging from their clothes and the aura they emitted, it was obvious that they were not ordinary people. These people were all wearing the same clothes, and each of them had at least the strength of the tenth stage of the secular martial arts.

The corner of the dark-skinned youth's mouth curved into an arc. He leisurely strolled into the tea house and found a table to sit at.

"I really don't understand. Why did the Prince suddenly order us to no longer search for that trash of the Xu Family, and even ask us to go around and purchase some strange medicinal herbs and things."

Not long after the dark-skinned youth sat down, he heard the low voice of one of the men. An unusual expression inadvertently flashed across the youth's face.

"That's right. I also heard that the Xu Family had issued an order not to search for that trash anymore, and that the mysterious bounty had been cancelled as well. What exactly is going on?" Following that, another burly man spoke in a low voice.

Just as the two of them finished speaking, another person said in a low voice, "What's so strange about that? I think it's related to the recent news. You guys probably don't know. I heard that the mysterious cultivation sects have come to our Chu Yun Country."

"That's right, I've also heard that these mysterious cultivation sects still need to widely accept disciples half a year later. Haven't you noticed that a lot of outsiders have come to Yan Xia city recently?"

"It seems that the prince's order should be related to this matter. Cultivating to become an immortal, who wouldn't be jealous of such a thing? I say, brothers, why don't we try our luck in half a year? "

"Alright, that's a decision then. But right now, let's hurry up and finish the task that the Prince has given us."

The few men whispered to each other for a while before they got up and left.

The tanned youth did not get up, only muttering in a low voice, "I didn't expect that wicked woman to cancel the killing order against me. Could something have happened to the Xu Family?" "Forget it, I can still be considered a member of the Xu Family. Before that mysterious cultivation sect accepts disciples, I'll just find a time to go back and take a look myself. At least, I can be considered as being worthy of the original owner of this body."

This dark-skinned youth was none other than Xu Fan, who had left the cave after breaking through and was preparing to return to Yan Xia City to meet up with Liu Da Feng.

On that day, after Xu Fan had successfully broken through the first layer of the Brahma Monarch's Astral Body Tempering Scripture, he cultivated in the stone cave for a few more days. Only after he had completely consolidated the first layer did he leave the stone cave and head towards the city.

"In the remaining time, I will need to obtain more medicinal herbs so that I can use the earth fire in the cave to refine more medicinal pills. Otherwise, after I join the Immortal Cultivation Sect half a year later, I might not have the chance to come back to refine pills."

Xu Fan thought about this, then threw down a piece of silver. He stood up and was about to leave.

However, just at this moment, Xu Fan's eyes suddenly lit up. He noticed a young and handsome youth walking over from the tea house.

The young man had a jade-like face, willow shaped eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and a very charming appearance. Unfortunately, his chest bulged out as two great dhutas appeared.

As soon as the handsome youth walked into the tea house, he directly sat down next to Xu Fan's table and loudly yelled, "Boss, hurry up and give me a pot of good tea. I'm dying of thirst."

"Pfft!"

Xu Fan, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but spit out the words in his head. This guy was clearly a beauty, something even a fool could see, yet he was still dressed like a man. Not to mention that his chest was already exposed, this sound was too delicate.

"Hey, bumpkin, what are you laughing about?"

Xu Fan's smile caused the handsome young man to immediately grow dissatisfied. His long, shapely eyebrows stood up, and he glared angrily at Xu Fan as he asked his question.

"Are you talking to me?"

Xu Fan pretended to be curious. In this world, it was rare for this guy to meet a beauty who looked silly. This guy just wanted to tease her.

The handsome youth looked at him in disdain: "Nonsense, if I wasn't talking to you then would I be talking to the air?" I'm asking you, what were you laughing at? Are my words that funny? "

Xu Fan curled his lips and said indifferently, "What are you not laughing at? What's the matter?" You can't even laugh? Did he break the law? "Also, I'm not called 'hey', nor 'bumpkin'. I'm called Liu Fan. I wonder what advice this beautiful Young Master has?"

When he said the word 'beautiful', this fellow even emphasized on his words.

"Ugh!"

The handsome young man choked, looking extremely unsatisfied: "Hey, I said you are a bumpkin, but also a bumpkin. Also, this young master's name is handsome, not pretty! Do you know? What are you looking at? What are you talking about? Aren't you still called a bumpkin? "

Xu Fan was speechless: "I'm not called a country bumpkin!"

The handsome youth insisted, "You are called a country bumpkin!"

Xu Fan wiped his sweat. "I declare again that I'm not called a country bumpkin, I'm called Liu Fan!"

The handsome youth acted as if he was reluctant as he compromised, "Alright, then I'll call you bumpkin Liu Fan!"

Xu Fan was about to cry. "…"

The handsome youth was quite pleased with himself. "Hehehehe …"

Xu Fan discovered that he was wrong. So every woman in any world was so fucking unreasonable. He couldn't help but roll his eyes and helplessly say, "I'm afraid of you. Drink your tea, please. Sorry for not accompanying you!"

"Humph!"

The handsome young man snorted, also shooting Xu Fan a huge supercilious look.

Xu Fan didn't pay any attention to this. He was concerned about finding Liu Da Feng and the Spirit Grass in Yanxia City, so he turned around and prepared to leave. When he realized that Liu Da Feng had just taken two steps, the handsome youth suddenly stood up and ran behind him to pull his lapel. He said pitifully, "Hey, I'm not calling you a country bumpkin. Can you help me pay for the tea?"

"Ugh!"

Xu Fan stared blankly. He still hadn't recovered from the sudden change in appearance of the handsome youth, but he heard the handsome youth pout his small mouth, looking extremely wronged as he whispered, "Stingy!"

Xu Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry and curiously asked, "Why should I pay for your tea?"

The handsome youth whispered: "Because I just realized that I don't have any money."

"If you have no money, then why did you come here to drink tea?" Xu Fan didn't understand.

The handsome youth confidently said, "Because I'm thirsty."

"…"

Seeing how the handsome youth looked so natural, Xu Fan couldn't help but feel exasperated. He could only ask, "Okay, I know you're thirsty, so why did you ask me to pay for it?"

The handsome youth stealthily glanced at Xu Fan and said in a low voice, "There are so many people here. I just think you're a country bumpkin, so it's easier to talk to you."

Xu Fan stared at the handsome youth for half an incense stick of time, and the handsome youth's face turned red. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he blinked his big watery eyes, and muttered: "Okay, you aren't a bumpkin, Liu Fan, right? "Because I was in a hurry when I came out, I didn't bring enough money. Can you help me? At most, I'll bring you to join a cultivation sect in the future.

"Pfft!"

Xu Fan couldn't help but laugh. What kind of women were these? Could it be that the women in this world were really so cute? The Xu Tong he had met, along with Big Sister Feng and that Miss Qi, seemed very normal. Why was this girl so cute?

He thought Xu Fan didn't believe her, so he said mysteriously, "I really didn't lie to you. Let me tell you a secret, I knew that a cultivation sect would be recruiting disciples in Yan Xia city in half a year's time, so I came here from a thousand miles away. How about I take you with me when the time comes?"

"Everyone on Earth knows!"

Xu Fan couldn't help but blurt out when he heard the handsome youth mention recruiting disciples for the Immortal Cultivation Sect.

"What Earthman?"

The handsome young man's large watery eyes curiously looked at Xu Fan and asked.

"Err!... Earth people are Earth people. Oh yeah, it seems like I'm not close with you, why should I answer you!"

The handsome youth angrily glared at Xu Fan. His eyes suddenly turned as he turned around and loudly said to the owner of the tea house, "Boss, my tea money will be paid to you by this friend of mine!"

After speaking, the handsome youth jumped onto his horse and ran away in the blink of an eye.

"..."
