At this moment.

Chen Sheng rubbed the warm golden pill between his fingers, eagerly anticipating achieving Foundation Establishment and developing Divine Sense.

Then it would indeed be like a tiger growing wings!

He carefully contemplated the Dantian, where the mana surged like a river, nearly full.

The distance to Qi Cultivation Perfection was already very close.

Chen Sheng estimated in his heart:

"At the latest by next year, at forty-four, I will reach the pinnacle of Qi Cultivation Perfection."

Chen Sheng was quite satisfied with this speed.

"But as for Body Refining?"

Chen Sheng's eyes, sharp as electricity, locked onto the indigo-golden and cyan-green twin flames swirling around him.

Finally, he focused on the fierce Qianyang Seed Fire.

Ling Xu reached out and grabbed it!

"Qi Refining still needs to wait until next year, but Body Refining can be done today!"

Chen Sheng's thoughts moved, and the azure glow of Body Refining Third Layer Perfection emerged from beneath his skin, with the sound of dragon roars and tiger growls echoing within his muscles and bones.

"With the Body Refining Third Layer achieved to perfection and the aid of the Seed Fire. Next, is breaking through the Profound Gate, establishing a Physical Foundation, and reaching Body Refining Fourth Layer!"

...

Half a month passed.

Chen Sheng adjusted his state to its best, taking the Life-Saving Elixir in advance to avoid accidents.

Sitting cross-legged like an ancient rock.

A small fire bead floated and flickered in front of him.

This was the Qianyang Fire Marrow, obtained by purifying the Qianyang Seed Fire through a secret technique, containing extremely pure Qianyang Origin.

It can rebuild the foundation!

"Come!"

His throat trembled.

The fire marrow turned into a stream of flames, penetrating his five viscera and six bowels.

"Boom——!"

The Body Refining Technique ran wildly, transforming his body into a furnace of flames.

Skin splits, flesh tears, bones crack, marrow boils.

An extremely painful process began.

...

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, in the Heart Inquiry Hall.

A group of concubines gathered together, discussing fiercely:

"It's been three months, why hasn't the lord come out of seclusion yet?"

"Never before has he been in seclusion for this long."

Wu Lingshuang gently stroked her belly, her face radiant, her lower belly had already shown signs of pregnancy.

Upon hearing the words of the crowd.

She swept the room with her phoenix eyes and snorted coldly:

"Stop chattering, it's annoying!"

"Lord is breaking through, just wait. If there's more gossip, don't blame me for enforcing the family rules."

Although Wu Lingshuang was a later entrant.

But with her birth in the Wu Clan, high-grade talent, Qi Cultivation Perfection strength, and household management skills…

She was already becoming the 'Senior Wife', quite authoritative.

As soon as these words were spoken.

The crowd instantly fell silent, speaking in unison:

"Understood, Eldest Sister!"

Wu Lingshuang, hearing this, nodded in satisfaction.

She occasionally looked towards the core area to the east, stroking her belly, a trace of worry flashing by.

...

Two days later.

The formation in the mansion began to circulate, and the mist in the core forbidden area dissipated!

Upon seeing this scene.

Wu Lingshuang's eyes lit up with joy, and she called out:

"Sisters, the lord has come out of seclusion."

"Let's go greet him together."

...

A while ago.

In the core seclusion area.

"Crack——!"

The last shackle shattered with a boom!

Vast Blood Gang gushed out of every pore, the cyan jade sheen of the skin faded, replaced by dark golden patterns.

At the moment Chen Sheng opened his eyes, the air three feet around him twisted and exploded, a smile on his face:

"Physical Foundation Establishment, Body Refining Fourth Layer, it's done!"

He carefully sensed the immense power within him.

A powerful force gradually generated, causing a tremendous transformation in his limbs, bones, Dantian, meridians, muscles, and skin.

At this moment.

Even a Tier One Top Grade Magical Artifact could hardly pierce his body's defense.

This physique was comparable to that of a Tier Two Early-stage demon beast!

"Bone Marrow Cleansing, the human body's great limit, has also been broken by me. Now I have a lifespan of two hundred years, just like a normal Foundation Establishment Cultivator."

"At the same time, reaching the Body Refining Fourth Layer, the sharpness of a Body Cultivator has also begun to emerge…"

Chen Sheng's thoughts flowed.

"Buzz!"

Threads of viscous, almost tangible blood-colored Gang Qi emerged from his body, gradually condensing into form around him.

He slowly stood up.

Layers of Blood Gang wrapped around his body.

Finally, it crystallized into a true body over two zhang high, like an ancient giant spirit, with an imposing presence like a fierce beast descending into the world.

Chen Sheng tried it out subtly.

This Blood Gang moved with his will, almost as if it were an extension of his bodily instincts, under his perfect control.

"Let's test it!"

The true body pinched with its fingers.

A piece of Cold Gold fell into its giant palm.

It was the Tier Two treasure material, incredibly sturdy, left behind after the furnace exploded earlier.

Chen Sheng's five fingers closed, lightly squeezing!

"Zizz... Clang!"

In an instant, the Tier Two Cold Gold, capable of withstanding Foundation Establishment skills' bombardment, was crushed into powder.

It slid through his fingers, drifting in the air.

Chen Sheng was pleasantly surprised in his heart:

"Truly powerful!"

"Blood Gang Power, the blood body condensing through it, even has the effect of breaking spells and slaying evil."

"This is the power unique to Body Cultivators!"

"If Body Cultivators were only tough-skinned, they'd be nothing more than sandbags, not even as useful as demon beasts, which at least have some bloodline magic."

"But a strong physique combined with Blood Gang Power."

"Body Cultivators become durable, able to fight, sustain themselves, and their survivability is greatly increased."

"This way, Body Cultivators can rival Sword Cultivators in the Cultivation Realm and become renowned combat professions."

Chen Sheng was extremely satisfied, nodding slightly:

"This achievement is complete, exit seclusion!"

Soon after.

Chen Sheng waved the Main Array Banner in his hand.

The array curtain opened like a Water Curtain Cave, and a path gradually formed, he slowly stepped out.

Outside the corridor, led by Wu Lingshuang, more than a dozen beautiful companions had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this lively group of beauties, Chen Sheng was delighted. The moment he stepped out, he hurriedly restrained the Blood Gang around him.

Carefully checking to avoid accidentally harming the beauties.

Wu Lingshuang, with her big belly and a smile on her face, led the concubines in saluting together:

"Congratulations on the lord's exit from seclusion, may the lord's Dao Foundation be eternal and immortal blessings enjoyed endlessly!"

Chen Sheng laughed heartily:

"Thank you, ladies, today with the Physical Foundation Establishment achieved, let's have a great feast to celebrate!"

Then, he looked at Wu Lingshuang:

"Shuang'er, I remember you have the Peach Blossom Ruyi Treasure Brew buried in your courtyard the year before, it's good for nourishing the body and fetus."

"Today, let's take ten jars."

"Later, we shall not return until we're drunk."

Wu Lingshuang responded with a smiling voice:

"All according to the lord's wishes."

Meanwhile.

Chen Sheng took the Sect Jade Token from his waist, and a streak of red gold light shot up into the sky, merging into the Cyan Nether, announcing his breakthrough to Body Refining Fourth Layer.

This kind of great realm breakthrough.

Cannot be hidden.

It relates to your positioning within the sect.

Qi Cultivation as disciples, stewards.

Foundation Establishment becomes the backbone of the sect, all of whom are elders of various halls, wielding certain authority.

Autonomy also greatly increased.

...

At Pill Furnace Peak, deep within the Cloud Sea.

A Red Flood Dragon was inhaling Rising Sun Purple Qi, its golden eyes suddenly opened, with a hint of surprise:

"Body Refining Fourth Layer, Physical Foundation Establishment?"

"This kid also has such Body Refining talent?"

The dragon body tumbled and transformed into a human form, Dragon Void Daoist stroked his beard, standing atop the cloud summit, smiling wryly:

"It seems the task assigned by me has become the icing on the cake."

Before long.

More information was presented.

Dragon Void Daoist's Divine Sense swept over the Jade Scroll, and various pieces of information emerged in his mind.

The Daoist laughed heartily, causing the Cloud Sea to tremble:

"Dragon Vein Special Physique."

"He Clan, Wu Clan… selling offspring for cultivation?"

"To think he came up with that, what a mischievous monkey!"
