Chapter 127 Saint's Remains
Zhang Liang smiled and nodded. The set of skills he taught the little golden monkey could help it purify its bloodline and condense the essence of heaven and earth. It can be said that as long as the little golden monkey persists in practicing, it will definitely be no problem to be promoted to a third-grade spiritual beast.
In addition, Zhang Liang will continue to provide elixirs to support its cultivation. Originally, the second-grade spiritual beast stage was already a bottleneck for the little golden monkey. Now that its bloodline has been condensed, it still has a lot of room for growth. After the little golden monkey completely re-refines its bloodline and practices the exercises to reshape its foundation, its strength will be at least two or three times stronger than it is now. At that time, it will break through and become a third-grade spiritual beast. I'm afraid it won't be a weakling among the third-grade spiritual beasts.
"Little guy, you will be an important trump card of mine from now on!" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
The little golden monkey was confused and might not have fully understood, but it squeaked non-stop and looked very happy. It stopped playing and stayed beside Zhang Liang to start practicing.
Seeing this, Zhang Liang stopped paying attention to the little golden monkey and started to sort out some miscellaneous items he had collected in the underground palace complex. Although these things were not valuable, they were better than nothing.
After sorting out the sundries, Zhang Liang began to study the thing called "Saint's Remains". In his opinion, this should be the body left behind by a powerful Xiantian Realm master.
The Xiantian realm and the realm below it are two completely different levels. In the world of cultivation, only those who have reached the Xiantian realm can be truly called immortals, with a lifespan of at least 500 years. They are also called celestial beings, immortals, etc. Although there are many definitions, they are all symbols that distinguish immortals from mortals.
The reason is that after entering the innate realm, the physical body, true essence, and soul will undergo qualitative changes, and the essence of life will leap to a higher level. Not only will the lifespan far exceed that of ordinary people, but the strength will also far surpass that of ordinary people.
At this time, Zhang Liang carefully observed the "remains of the saint" and found that its bones were dark gold in color. It seemed that it was more powerful than the average strong man who had just entered the innate realm. The bones of ordinary innate masters were at most light gold in color.
"Let's test the strength first."
As he spoke, Zhang Liang casually drew out the sword of immortality and scraped a rib a few times, but in the end, not even a bit of bone was scraped off.
"You kid, stop it!"
Suddenly, an anxious voice sounded. It was Bei Mingzi.
"Old Taoist, why did you come so soon?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"If you don't come, you will destroy the remains of the saint, right?" Bei Mingzi replied with a unhappy expression.
"It's such a big skeleton, so it doesn't matter if it loses a little." Zhang Liang said nonchalantly.
"What do you know? The remains of the saint carry the saint's will. If you disturb the will of the saint inside, the entire Tianzong will suffer, not to mention your disrespectful behavior towards the ancestors!" Bei Mingzi glared at him.
"Old Taoist, you have no good intentions. Don't you want to dismantle this skeleton? Why did you bring it back? Are you going to worship it as an ancestor?" Zhang Liang teased.
"Cough cough!" Bei Mingzi coughed twice, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
In fact, he did think about using this "saint's remains", even more than Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang just wanted to test the strength of the skeleton, while Bei Mingzi wanted to extract the essence from it to help himself break through. When it comes to disrespecting the saint, he is even more serious than Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang rolled his eyes at Bei Mingzi, then picked up the sword and tapped the skeleton lightly, making a sound like the clashing of metal.
"Old Taoist, what exactly is this saint's will that you mentioned?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but ask curiously.
In his understanding, the corpse of a congenitally powerful person certainly carries a trace of the pressure from his lifetime, but this is not a big deal. Is it different in this world?
"As far as I know, when a saintly person achieves a holy body or an immortal body, his will will also change. The look of a saint can make practitioners below the saint level unable to bear it. This is the pressure brought by the saint's will!"
“After the death of a saint, his remains still retain some of his aura, but it is usually hidden very deeply. Once triggered and released, it is enough to kill most masters of the grandmaster level. Even someone with my level of cultivation may not be able to withstand it!” Bei Mingzi said seriously.
"After thousands or even tens of thousands of years, can this remains still retain the will and pressure of the saint?" Zhang Liang asked doubtfully.
"What do you know? The reason why saints are called saints is because they have eternal and immortal existence. Look, this corpse has gone through countless years and still maintains its original appearance. This is the symbol of its immortality!" Bei Mingzi explained excitedly.
"Then how do you plan to use the remains?" Zhang Liang asked again.
"I, old Taoist priest, have never seen the remains of a saint before. I need to study them carefully." Bei Mingzi answered rather embarrassedly.
"In other words, what you just said is actually useless, right?" Zhang Liang smiled and continued, "Then you might as well let me try it first."
"How do you want to try?" Bei Mingzi asked.
"Refine! Use the methods of refining elixirs and tools to extract the essence from it. Didn't you say that there is the will of the saint in it? As long as we can refine that will, we can extract the essence from the remains. If successful, I am confident that I can increase Chisongzi's chance of breakthrough by more than 30%!" Zhang Liang replied with a smile.
