Chapter 383: Chapter 263: Junior Uncle of the Holy Land, Great Guardian of the Pure Land_2

Mr. Lu said, "But in the end, to ensure the longevity of his wife’s Yin Soul, he took the token of the second meridian’s leader. Thus, that ’Yin Soul’ possessed the power of Refining God, equivalent to a Yin God!"

"The token of the Holy Land’s leader can bestow the power of Refining God, which is the foundation of the Human Clan."

"Yin Souls are more prone to losing control in the treacherous night than humans!"

"Once the token merges with the ’Yin Soul,’ it will become a most malevolent and evil Evil Spirit in the future, so the Holy Land cannot tolerate it."

"He defected from the Holy Land, leaving behind only these words: ’When I reach the Refining God Realm in the future, I will bestow four generations of blessings upon the Holy Land!’"

"Afterward, he fled north, escaping the territory of the Three Prefectures under the Holy Land’s control."

"His return this time is because he learned of a change in the Holy Land and wanted to do something for the Holy Land."

"The reason he’s willing to rescue me today is that... Lu Changsheng told him that I am on a mission for the Saint Master!"

Mr. Lu said with a smile, "This man isn’t particularly well-regarded to the north of the Holy Land. He is whimsical and unpredictable, both righteous and wicked, but at least, he has never colluded with Tribulation Ash..."

"He has already reached the Refining God Realm."

Lin Yan slowly said, "He reached the Refining God Realm on his own merits?"

"When it comes to talent, he was second only to the Saint Master in the Holy Land."

Mr. Lu stroked his beard and said, "Moreover, the ’Yin God’ he worshipped gave him tremendous help. It’s not surprising that he has these achievements after venturing north for many years."

----

By late night, Lin Yan and the others finally arrived at their next destination in the Pure Land.

The path through the night was a bit smoother than before.

"The people of Tribulation Ash, with the Daluo Immortal Body, have helped the Sword Lord gain power and plot to take over the town object of the Pure Land."

"First, that’s the end of our ’place of refuge’ for tonight!"

"Second, the Sword Lord will inevitably have to repay this favor in the future, working on behalf of Tribulation Ash. Be extra vigilant when you hear news of Him."

After saying this, Mr. Lu paused before adding, "Your Old God’s Technique..."

"Five Mountains Dragon Capture!"

Lin Yan slowly said, "Acquired from within the Liu Family... These great families secretly gather strength to explore the Pure Land, it seems they’ve benefited greatly, each hiding many secrets!"

Upon hearing this, Lv Tang gasped in astonishment, "Old God’s Technique is not achievable by human efforts, yet you’ve managed to..."

But in the next moment, Lv Tang lowered his voice and muttered, "No, this youngster’s cultivation progress is even more monstrous than monsters. It seems not so surprising that he could achieve it!"

As he thought this, his mind was spinning.

Wu Chang was no longer considered human.

Then, within the Qifeng Prefecture’s Human Clan, Li Shen Sect could be considered the foremost, and he was still second!

Thinking this, he felt quite pleased with himself, secretly thinking, "As long as I don’t compare myself with non-humans like Wu Chang, I, Lv Tang, am still a genius blessed by the heavens!"

After a moment of silence, Mr. Lu finally said, "A fine Five Mountains Dragon Capture, only possible because your physical body is robust enough to withstand it!"

"If it were any other peak Qi Refining Realm practitioner, their body would probably shatter before they could even execute the technique!"

"I have entered the Refining God Realm, but unfortunately, since I did not attain enlightenment through martial arts, my physical body isn’t strong enough. I can only rely on mana to protect myself and kill enemies!"

"But with your close combat skills, if you get within a hundred steps of me, I would be at your mercy."

Mr. Lu spoke solemnly, "Your skills are indeed profound."

Lin Yan heard the implied meaning.

Profound, but not strong.

Capable of close combat with a Refining God Realm practitioner like Mr. Lu.

But not necessarily able to combat a Refining God Realm practitioner who has attained enlightenment through martial arts.

"Are Refining God Realm practitioners who attained enlightenment through martial arts stronger than Mr. Lu?" Lin Yan mused.

"They can release mana externally to kill enemies like I do, or transform it into a shield to protect themselves," Mr. Lu slowly said. "But there is one thing I cannot do, which they can... They can integrate mana into their bodies and achieve a Divine Body."

"No wonder the people of Tribulation Ash think of you as a Divine Bow."

Lin Yan suddenly understood.

A Divine Bow can only shoot arrows!

Once the arrow is released, it is exceedingly sharp, piercing through great enemies!

But if someone gets close, even a piece of scrap iron might be able to cut the bowstring and destroy the Divine Bow!

However, a Refining God Realm practitioner who has attained enlightenment through martial arts is capable of developing a Divine Body, battling up close, and through their punches and palms, shattering great enemies of this world!

"For temple priests to achieve a Primordial Spirit, it’s actually a shortcut."

Mr. Lu said indifferently, "From human flesh to divine in one step! But the drawbacks are also very clear, and moreover... after the Primordial Spirit is achieved, there’s no path forward!"

He looked at Lin Yan and slowly continued, "Those who attain enlightenment through martial arts in the Refining God Realm can cultivate the Landscaping Technique and develop an Inner Realm Divine Domain!"

Although Mr. Lu did not continue.

Lin Yan and the others already understood.

Mr. Lu could only refine his Primordial Spirit.

Once the Primordial Spirit has grown to a certain level, there is no more path ahead.

But those who attain enlightenment through martial arts can create an Inner Realm Divine Domain and strengthen their Primordial Spirits!

"Therefore, do not assume that with a strong physique you can close in and combat a Refining God Realm practitioner."

Mr. Lu said, "You have never truly fought against a Refining God Realm character. If one day you meet such a formidable enemy... without understanding the underlying principles and attempting to close in for a deadly strike, you might fall into a dangerous situation!"

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for the guidance!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan immediately gained clarity and bowed in greeting.

Lv Tang also nodded and said, "What Mr. Lu said is very true. If I encounter a Refining God Realm practitioner in the future, I won’t recklessly engage in close combat either."

The Little White Ape gave him a deep look, silently thinking, "This fellow, even after breaking the seal, still has some aftereffects... With just a few strands of True Qi, he wants to combat a Refining God Realm character up close?"

And Lin Lei silently noted Mr. Lu’s words in his heart.
