The Secret of the Physical Body’s Sixth Domain!_4 “The Flesh Body Path holds tremendous potential in my eyes, perhaps no less than the so-called Immortal Path.”

“Unfortunately, this path leads to a dead end and requires extremely high talent; only those with the ultimate physical talent can embark on this path.”

“Among the nine members of the Holy Institute, your talent in the realm of the physical body ranks first, even surpassing me.”

At this point, Dugu Bo paused and looked directly at Jiang Yuan.

“I don’t know when it started, but you came to possess a physique equal to mine, the ‘Human Sacred Body’!”

Jiang Yuan gave an awkward smile and touched his nose.

Dugu Bo continued, “I know you have secrets, and there’s no need for you to explain! In my eyes, you didn’t qualify, weren’t worthy of being my successor.”

“But now I realize that I am not worthy, unable to be your mentor.”

“After seeing your talent, I can hardly regard any heaven genius disciples with the same interest.”

“Just as well, I will pass on all the experience I’ve accumulated and explored over the years to you!”

“After all, you are the most likely person to make it through this path.”

Jiang Yuan listened quietly until Dugu Bo had finished speaking.

Only then did Jiang Yuan rise from the rattan chair and bow to Dugu Bo.

“Dean, rest assured, I will certainly not let you down.”

Dugu Bo gestured with his hand to stop Jiang Yuan: “No need for such a grand gesture. These so-called accumulated experiences are just the bits and pieces, and they might not even catch your eye.”

At this, Dugu Bo looked at Jiang Yuan and sighed deeply again.

“I originally thought that my talent would rank among the best throughout history, but now I know what it means to always find someone better.”

“Compared to your talent, mine is not worth mentioning!”

“If even you cannot make it through, then it’s likely that no one will be able to do so in the future.”

“My accumulated experiences and thoughts, as well as my many attempts over the years, might at least save you some time.”

Jiang Yuan bowed again, this time without saying much, and then slowly sat back down in the rattan chair.

The next moment.

Jiang Yuan placed the White Jade-like jade pendant on his forehead.

Instantly, the vast information contained within flooded into his mind.

Dugu Bo watched this scene and, after observing for a few moments and seeing no abnormal reactions from Jiang Yuan, casually crossed his legs and leaned back.

In his view, it would take Jiang Yuan quite a while to wake up.

The jade pendant contained no small amount of records about the Flesh Body Path.

He had reached the Saint Realm Ninth Heavens hundreds of years ago and had woven the cocoon of the Great Dao, just one final leap of the primordial spirit away from obtaining the Supreme Dao Fruits.

For many years, he no longer needed to cultivate, spending most of his time researching the path of the physical body.

After all, the half-step to the Supreme Realm was not something that could be crossed by effort alone; it needed an increase in the strength of the primordial spirit to another dimension.

And to achieve the strength of the primordial spirit that he envisioned, unless he could find an Immortal Medicine related to the primordial spirit, it was not possible.

After all, once that step was taken, one would obtain the Supreme Dao Fruits.

In terms of realm, it would be above the Immortals of the Upper Realm.

The strongest among the Supreme could even stand shoulder to shoulder with the true immortals of the Upper Realm, or even defeat them in battle.

Yet the end of the Heaven-Earth communication had passed for a million eras.

And where could one find Immortal Medicine in this nearly withered world?

Over the years, the thought of attaining the Supreme Dao Fruits had all but vanished from his heart.

Apart from occasionally contemplating the Great Dao, he would research the path of the physical body.

The accumulations and explorations of hundreds of years, coupled with all the information related to the Flesh Body Path that he had collected from ancient books over the years, were recorded inside it.

The information contained in this jade pendant was naturally vast.

To fully digest all this vast information was not something that could be resolved in a short while.

Dugu Bo crossed his legs again, then clasped his hands behind his head, comfortably watching Jiang Yuan’s slightly furrowed brows.

After a while.

“So young indeed!” Dugu Bo suddenly sighed softly.

Just then, Jiang Yuan’s lightly closed eyes slowly opened, and then he raised his hand to rub his forehead.

“Have you… fully assimilated it all?”

Dugu Bo suddenly stood up, his face showing astonishment as he looked at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan looked up at Dugu Bo while rubbing his slightly prickling brow and looked back at Dugu Bo with a puzzled expression.

“Yes! I’ve accepted it all!”

Jiang Yuan nodded again.

“You… are really a little monster!” Dugu Bo’s face showed he was at a loss for words.

He then shook his head. “Forget it! Forget it!”

He continued, “Nothing that happens to you would be surprising!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, not understanding why Dugu Bo would react so, but he could naturally sense the fluctuations in Dugu Bo’s mood.

The next moment.

“Dean!” Jiang Yuan spoke.

Dugu Bo immediately sat upright. “Tell me!”

After pondering for a while, Jiang Yuan handed the jade ornament back to Dugu Bo and then said, “Among these records, is the founder of the Flesh Body Path that legendary figure known as the Heavenly Emperor?”

Dugu Bo took back the jade ornament, then nodded. “I can’t guarantee the authenticity of this record; I read it in some miscellaneous book. There’s also a theory that the so-called Daoist Ancestor and the Heavenly Emperor are the same person.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan’s brow furrowed slightly.

“So, the founder of the upper realm is the Daoist Ancestor, and could it also be that Heavenly Emperor?”

Dugu Bo nodded again. “If the records are true, there’s indeed such a possibility!”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan became pensive.

Although he did not know whether these records were true or false, his intuition told him they were true.

The records of the Daoist Ancestor’s legend he had encountered countless times before.

He was the opener of paths in this era, who had opened up the Human Realm, all the way to the Supreme Realm.

He had also opened up the Immortal Path Domain and established the so-called Immortal Land of the upper realm.

Across all eras, the strength of the Immortal Path Domain was unparalleled.

The Daoist Ancestor’s might was indeed extraordinary and peerless, perhaps without equal in history.

The rumors surrounding the Heavenly Emperor were also exceptional.

A suspected Longevity had witnessed the Heavenly Emperor with his own eyes and left behind records about him.

This Longevity had stated that even though he had lived through several eras, he had to bow his head upon seeing the Heavenly Emperor.

This undoubtedly demonstrated the strength of the master of the Ancient Heavenly Court: the Heavenly Emperor.

Based on what Jiang Yuan had learned previously, the current era was not very ancient.

In this not-so-long period of time, the possibility of two such unparalleled beings emerging, supreme across many eras, might exist but was extremely low.

So, the theory that the Daoist Ancestor and the Heavenly Emperor were the same person did indeed have merit.

At this moment.

Dugu Bo watched Jiang Yuan immersed in thought.

“What do you think?”

Jiang Yuan quickly came back to his senses and nodded slightly.

“Based on what I know, it’s indeed possible!”

Having said that, Jiang Yuan looked up into the depths of the void.

At this moment in his eyes, the secrets of the void were few, and with just his eyesight, he was already able to vaguely spot the location of the heaven genius battlefield.

It was in a deep layer of the void, as if it was in another dimension, existing independently from this Heaven and Earth.

Yet it seemed omnipresent.

It was like a grand building emerging from a Shen, or a fleeting dream, visible but unattainable.

Jiang Yuan also thought of the Tower Spirit in the Ten Thousand Stars Pagoda; times had changed.

He felt that the Tower Spirit must be extraordinary and would surely be able to resolve some of his doubts.

Perhaps the Tower Spirit was related to the Ancient Heavenly Court, especially since it was he who had given the leaf of the World Tree.

Finding the World Tree was a stroke of fate for him, and the trigger from that leaf of the World Tree was crucial!

It was time to pay him a visit!
