Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 602 Yangchi, Pure Yang Spiritual Body!

The interior of Shangyang.

“It seems my junior brother isn’t from my domain!” Shen Yueru looked at Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning nodded: "Does Senior Sister know about the Ten Domains?"

"The Ten Domains?" Shen Yueru glanced sideways: "Junior Brother actually knows about the Ten Domains. It seems you know quite a lot!"

Jiang Ning said, "I've heard a little about it from ancient books!"

“The Ten Domains is an ancient concept; they no longer exist!” Shen Yueru shook her head and said, “I don’t know much about the Ten Domains either. There aren’t many records about them within the Crimson Blaze Sword Sect. Much information has been erased by a mysterious force! My junior brother is the second person from outside the domains that I’ve met.”

"And who is the other one?" Jiang Ning asked, looking puzzled.

Shen Yueru pictured a handsome, almost demonic man with nine tails in her mind. She then shook her head and said, "I'd say he's your senior brother! He's also a demon with great fortune who obtained the true inheritance token of the Shangyang Immortal Sect."

"A demon?" Jiang Ning instantly caught the key information revealed in Shen Yueru's words.

“Hmm!” Shen Yueru nodded: “A transformed great demon, possessing the pure bloodline of a nine-tailed celestial fox, whose strength is exceptionally exaggerated.”

A powerful demon in human form!

Upon hearing these four words, Jiang Ning's heart tightened.

Those with over a thousand years of cultivation are great demons, possessing the ability to transform into human form.

However, at this stage of transformation, it is difficult to conceal one's racial characteristics, and the body will have very obvious racial symbolism.

Only those with cultivation levels exceeding three thousand can truly transform and merge into human form after passing the tribulation of lightning, becoming virtually undetectable.

This is also the Demon King.

A thought flashed through Jiang Ning's mind, and then he spoke again.

"Senior sister, that senior brother is a pure-blooded nine-tailed celestial fox, belonging to the demon race. How could he have obtained the status of a true disciple of the Shangyang Immortal Sect?"

Shen Yueru glanced at Jiang Ning: "Who told you that Shangyang Immortal Sect doesn't accept demons? In ancient times, immortals, demons, humans and gods lived together. Shangyang Immortal Sect not only had immortals, humans, but also demons. In fact, as far as I know, the last sect leader of Shangyang Immortal Sect was a three-legged golden crow."

"I've learned a lot!" Jiang Ning cupped his hands in greeting.

Shen Yueru continued forward: "Junior brother, come with me! There aren't many usable buildings in the Shangyang Inner Landscape now. Places like the Dan Ding Pavilion, Dao Fa Lou, and Ling Bao Lou are completely dilapidated and have become mere decorations, no longer what they used to be. But some things are still usable, and their effects haven't diminished."

"Thank you, Senior Sister!" Jiang Ning said again.

"Junior brother is quite polite!" Shen Yueru nodded.

While leading Jiang Ning forward, he said, "Junior Brother, you must abandon martial arts and switch to cultivating immortality as soon as possible! Immortality is a glorious path, a true path to heaven! With your performance in entering this place and your experience with the Shangyang Inner Realm, it won't be difficult for you to open your Inner Realm!"

"With the wonders of the inner realm, even if you are not in the cave, you can still embark on the path of cultivation and make rapid progress."

Hear the words.

Jiang Ning thanked her, saying, "I will keep your words in mind, Senior Sister."

Shen Yueru nodded and led Jiang Ning forward.

The two walked across the spacious, empty square, through the dilapidated buildings, and over the collapsed stone pillars.

As the two walked forward, time and space seemed to constantly shift.

At times, the surroundings are radiant with light, and the buildings are enveloped in a dazzling glow; at other times, the landscape is devastated, with buildings in ruins and stone pillars collapsed.

The past and the present are intertwined.

"Stop looking!" Shen Yueru said, "The dilapidated buildings are now the interior of Shangyang. The good things that have been preserved here are in front of us."

After a while.

Behind the complex of buildings, between two undulating valleys, Jiang Ning saw a pool of golden water.

As the two moved forward, the surroundings constantly changed; the buildings were sometimes dilapidated, and sometimes radiant with precious light, but the golden pool in front of them remained unchanged.

It maintains a consistent golden hue.

The ten suns in the sky were clearly reflected in the calm pool water.

Shen Yueru led Jiang Ning to the golden pool.

"This is Yangchi!"

Jiang Ning looked at Shen Yueru.

Shen Yueru continued, "Neither you nor I have come here in physical form, but rather in spiritual form formed from our souls!"

"When the spiritual body enters the Yang Pool to bathe and is baptized by the Yang Pool, the spiritual body will continuously grow stronger."

"Each time you return, the growth of your spiritual body will nourish your soul, allowing your soul to continuously transform into a Yang God."

"It is said that with the power of Yangchi alone, given enough time, any living being can achieve the Yang God realm. Even ordinary people who have never cultivated can achieve the Yang God realm through this."

"This is one of the foundations of the Shangyang Immortal Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning looked at Shen Yueru.

"Senior sister, what should we do?"

"Let's take a bath!" Shen Yueru said.

As soon as she finished speaking, she lifted her leg and plunged it into the pool.

The golden pool water instantly washed over her ankles.

whimpering—

Shen Yueru let out a slightly heavy sound through her nose.

When she saw Jiang Ning looking at her, her expression became somewhat unnatural.

"Don't look at me! Go in and soak. Your first soak in the Yangchi water will be extremely beneficial to you! If your spirit is high enough, you will make rapid progress on the path to immortality!"

“Yes, Senior Sister!” Jiang Ning nodded.

He then stepped into the Yangchi Pool.

next moment.

The moment his feet stepped into the Yang Pool, he felt like a creature from the underworld, experiencing the energy of the mortal realm for the first time.

A surge of warmth erupted from the soles of his feet, and an indescribable feeling of exhilaration welled up inside him.

"Don't shout!" Shen Yueru said, looking at Jiang Ning's ethereal expression.

Jiang Ning suddenly came to her senses: "Senior sister, I understand why you were panting just now."

"Junior brother, do you want to get beaten up?!"

Jiang Ning immediately felt a killing intent descend upon him.

He opened his eyes and saw Shen Yueru's furrowed brows.

However, he could sense that Shen Yueru's murderous intent was not substantial, but rather superficial.

The intimidation is greater than the actual effect.

"Hehe!" Jiang Ning couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.

Shen Yueru withdrew her gaze and stepped into the Yangchi Pool.

The pool water reached above her calves and knees.

It overflowed past my thighs.

Throughout the process, for every inch the pool water rose, Shen Yueru's red dress disappeared by an inch.

Jiang Ning also knew that it was not the pool water that had dissolved Shen Yueru's red dress.

Rather, the red dress was merely a manifestation of her spiritual being.

Here, the clothes we wear are merely manifestations of our thoughts and ideas.

The body beneath the clothes is of the same origin, both being manifestations of the spirit.

He also walked deeper into Yangchi.

After a while.

The Yangchi Lake had already reached their necks, leaving only their heads above the water.

"Let's soak for two hours first, then I'll take you to see other places!" Shen Yueru said to Jiang Ning.

"Thank you, Senior Sister!" Jiang Ning said, expressing her gratitude.

Shen Yueru nodded, then immediately closed her eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning also closed his eyes and quietly felt the surging yang energy washing over his body.

"I wonder if my special abilities will be effective in the Yang Pool?" The thought flashed through his mind.

next moment.

On a whim, he took the initiative to try. In an instant.

boom!
He felt countless streams of yang energy rushing towards his body as if a dam had burst.

In just a moment, the yang energy surging into his body was more than ten times stronger than before.

aside.

Shen Yueru suddenly opened her eyes and stood up.

The next moment, she suddenly sat down again.

Because as she stood up, her mind had been focused, and her clothes did not materialize.

"Thank goodness!" Seeing Jiang Ning's tightly closed eyes, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then stared blankly at Jiang Ning.

While in the Yang Pool, she felt countless streams of Yang energy flowing past her, no longer converging into her body as before.

Instead, they passed by without entering, as if they had discarded her like worn-out shoes.

"How could this be?!" Shen Yueru stared at Jiang Ning, lost in thought.

After watching for a long time, Jiang Ning remained motionless, his eyes slightly closed as if he were a meditating old monk.

She also felt that the amount of yang energy flowing into her body was only one-tenth or one-twelfth of what it used to be.

Shen Yueru glanced at Jiang Ning again, and with a thought, a bathrobe appeared on her body.

She then stood up, revealing her upper body, and walked further away from Jiang Ning.

After walking nearly ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) away, she realized that Jiang Ning's influence was minimal, so she sat down cross-legged again.

The golden pool water instantly rose over her waist and chest, until it submerged her shoulders, and then she sat cross-legged at the bottom of the pool.

"This junior brother seems to have extremely high talent and potential. Although he has gone astray, as long as he corrects it in time, he will surely be extraordinary in the future!"

As various thoughts flashed through her mind, Shen Yueru glanced at Jiang Ning a few more times before closing her eyes again.

Two hours later.

"It's full!" Jiang Ning thought to himself, and slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, he could feel that the yang energy that had just surged into his body like a river bursting its banks had now become a trickle, and his spiritual body's absorption had clearly reached its limit.

As Jiang Ning opened his eyes, Shen Yueru, who was not far away, seemed to sense it as well and opened her eyes as well.

"Senior Sister!" Jiang Ning said.

"How do you feel?" Shen Yueru asked.

"I'm full!" Jiang Ning said.

Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Shen Yueru glanced at him with a complicated expression, a hint of envy flashing through her mind.

"Senior sister, are we leaving now?" Jiang Ning asked again.

"Let's go!" Shen Yueru nodded and stood up, somewhat lost in thought.

Hua Hua Hua——

Golden water cascaded down her body.

"Senior sister, the clothes!" Jiang Ning reminded her.

Shen Yueru looked down and saw that she was still wearing that bathrobe. A slightly unnatural expression flashed across her face.

"They're all the same!" she said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning said no more.

Shen Yueru, dressed in a yukata, was wearing far more clothes than the girls on the beach and in the pool in her previous life.

He had seen too much of the open-mindedness of his past life and had no evil thoughts in his heart.

He immediately stood up, the pool water slid off his body, and a loose-fitting training uniform appeared on him.

Just then, he noticed Shen Yueru's intense gaze fixed on him.

"Senior sister, what's wrong?" Jiang Ning looked down at herself and, noticing nothing amiss, asked.

“Junior brother, your body is radiating a faint golden light!” Shen Yueru said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning smiled wryly.

"This must be related to the commotion just now!"

"What just happened to you?" Shen Yueru walked over.

The pool water reached up to her waist.

At this moment, Shen Yueru's body was already covered by a red dress, and she was dressed very conservatively.

"I don't know either!" Jiang Ning shook his head.

“It doesn’t matter if we don’t know, anyway, it seems like it should be a good thing for our junior brother!” Shen Yueru said.

Jiang Ning nodded.

The two then went ashore from Jinchi.

At this moment, Shen Yueru looked at Jiang Ning and unconsciously took a step to the side.

Seeing Jiang Ning's gaze, Shen Yueru said, "Your body is too hot, it's a bit uncomfortable to be too close! Being next to you makes me feel like a creature from the underworld."

"Senior sister, I'll be more careful later!" Jiang Ning said.

“No need!” Shen Yueru shook her head, took two steps closer to Jiang Ning, and continued, “Being by your side feels strange. The yang energy emanating from your body is like a natural enemy, making me uncomfortable, but after the discomfort, I feel somewhat comfortable. That aura is as if it is causing my spiritual body to undergo some kind of transformation.”

"Has Senior Sister become a Yang God?" Jiang Ning asked.

Shen Yueru shook her head: "I'm still far from it. I only recently became a Yin God."

"Senior sister, do you think my spiritual body has completely transformed into a Yang spirit?" Jiang Ning asked, expressing his thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yueru thought about it seriously for a moment and then nodded.

"It's possible!"

After speaking, Shen Yueru took another step closer to Jiang Ning.

At this moment, Jiang Ning was radiating a faint golden light, like a radiant sun.

As Shen Yueru drew closer, a burning blush rose to her face.

She looked at Jiang Ning and couldn't help but lick her red lips.

"Junior brother, you taste delicious right now! If I eat you, my spiritual body will definitely undergo a transformation!"

"Senior sister, don't scare me!" Jiang Ning jumped aside.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yueru blushed, and her eyes regained their clarity.

"Junior brother, I'm sorry, I lost my composure a bit."

Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

"What happened to Senior Sister just now?"

"I understand now. Junior Brother is now a pure Yang spiritual body. His spiritual body alone has already reached the pure Yang realm, the realm of Yang God."

"Does Senior Sister mean that my current spiritual body is a Yang God?" Jiang Ning asked.

“Hmm!” Shen Yueru nodded and continued, “If Junior Brother can bring his spiritual body to the state of pure Yang every time he comes in, and it will nourish his soul after he returns, then it won’t be long before Junior Brother’s soul reaches the state of Yang God.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning asked.

Jiang Ning asked, "Senior sister, if it's like this, how many cycles would it take for a normal Yin spirit to transform into a Yang spirit?"

Shen Yueru shook her head: "I don't know, but at most it will be twenty or thirty round trips! If our spiritual bodies are damaged here, it will cause serious damage to our souls. Right now, this spiritual body accounts for a significant proportion of our souls."

"Twenty or thirty times, which would take at most two years, to transform from a Yin spirit into a Yang spirit?" Jiang Ning asked.

“That’s right!” Shen Yueru looked at Jiang Ning with envy and nodded: “Junior Brother, you can achieve Yang God status in three to five years at most, thanks to the Yang Pool. Judging from this, it won’t be long before you surpass me!”

At this point, Shen Yueru felt a pang of jealousy and mixed emotions.

She is known as the Crimson Blaze Sword Immortal, a leading figure among the younger generation, with few prodigies able to rival her.

But here she was, and she saw that Jiang Ning would easily defeat her in the near future.

Achieving the Yang God status would make one the strongest being below the level of an immortal.

Because in today's environment, there is no longer any tribulation of lightning to descend or to cleanse us.

There are no Tribulation Realm experts.
