Mysterious mirror hanging high

"When Wanshou Daojun created the [Bitter Crossing Sutra], in order to implement his philosophy of 'seclusion from the world', he deliberately modified it into a comprehensive practice that could refine all things. Unlike those practices that strive for unwavering purity, since it's a comprehensive practice, the more diverse the precious body-refining elixirs used for breakthroughs, the better!"

"During these years of hard training, I've mostly used Qi-boosting and Qi-condensing pills as my main source of nourishment. In fact, I've always limited my intake of body-refining essences to spiritual energy and plant essences. That's a superficial view!"

After figuring out the key, Jing Yu smiled slightly, and dozens of rare metal ores, medicinal herbs and woods, monster furs, and some miscellaneous unidentified objects that he had collected over the years flew out from his storage bag. He grabbed them, and under the cover of the Kudu Xuanguang, he refined them in an instant!

boom!

Jing Yu only felt that a bottleneck in the dark was quickly broken through, and his entire body began to transform rapidly.

His bones became harder, his fascia became more resilient, and the layers of keratin on his skin became finer and tighter, as if tiny transparent scales were perfectly fitted on his flesh and blood.

A layer of black and smelly dirt was discharged from Jing Yu's body. These were the impurities discharged when his body was purified into a precious body.

But the next moment, his entire body was enveloped in a layer of gray mysterious light slightly mixed with milky white Taoist patterns, sweeping away all the impurities, revealing skin emitting a jade-like luster and the perfect body he had dreamed of in his previous life.

"This is the realm of treasure body!"

Jing Yu, whose body was spotless, stood up, clenched his fists, and felt the terrifying power in his body, and couldn't help but lose his mind.

Although he had no experience in formal combat with Foundation Establishment cultivators, based on his own estimation, Jing Yu believed that relying solely on his current physical strength, it should be more than enough to defeat an early Foundation Establishment cultivator of the same level as Taoist Cangsong!

"Right now, I'm relying solely on physical training, which is a bit limited. However, the [Alien Skeleton Technique] can slightly make up for this disadvantage."

After saying that, Jing Yu took out the pair of [Howling Eagle Wings] that were well preserved by secret methods from his storage bag.

Two cracks suddenly appeared on his back, revealing the muscle texture and bones inside. The two wings of the Howling Wind Eagle just fit into the two cracks. Jing Yu seemed to have suddenly turned into a birdman with wings on his back.

Jing Yu tried to flap the wings behind him, and a strong wind instantly blew up in the entire quiet room. The next moment, he felt that he was about to break through the wall.

"This [Alien Skeleton Technique] is truly miraculous. The wings of the connected monsters seem to be truly connected by flesh and blood, and they are as flexible as an arm."

Jing Yu's mind moved, and the crack on his back became larger. He folded his wings into his body. As the crack gradually closed, his entire back became smooth and seamless again, with only two slightly raised but not obvious bulges where the wings were hidden.

Jing Yu tried the secret method of escape again, and two cracks appeared on his back. The pair of [Howling Eagle Wings] fell off his back again.

After repeated tests and confirmation that it was plug-and-play, I installed it again.

Only now did he truly understand why the modified [Sutra of Bitter Crossing] could be called an open framework. These monster organs were like components, plug-and-play, and he could temporarily change the combination according to different application scenarios in order to best adapt to the environment.

Then he flipped his hand and took out a sticky, bloody mass of flesh.

[The stomach of the blue and white python].

This time, a huge gash appeared in the middle of Jing Yu's chest and abdomen, and the various organs inside were even clearly visible. He used the method in the [Alien Skeleton Technique] to stuff the stomach of the blue and white python directly next to his own stomach. Countless light-colored granulations stretched out from the original surface of the stomach and pierced into the stomach skin of the blue and white python, thus connecting the two.

After doing all this, Jing Yu adjusted the position of the two stomachs, then pulled his hands out from between his chest and abdomen, and the crack began to slowly close.

After washing the mucus off his hands with Ku Du Xuan Guang, Jing Yu took out a Qi Condensation Pill, threw it into his mouth like a candy bean, chewed it and swallowed it, carefully feeling the refining speed of the pill.

"Yes, the speed of refining precious medicine that can enter the stomach is about 50% faster than before... This is because the [Blue Flower Python's Stomach] is not very valuable... When I find the stomach of another rare beast that is better at digesting, I can replace it..."

The Treasure Body Realm is divided into three levels, each corresponding to the initial, middle and late stages of foundation building. Every time you advance to a higher level, you can get two more monster organs to sew. Now Jing Yu has used up the two organ quotas in the first level of the Treasure Body. When he reaches the second level of the Treasure Body, he may consider adding a few offensive organs that are more suitable for fighting.

"It's time to get out of seclusion."

Just as Jing Yu was about to step out of the quiet room, he found that a golden token suddenly emerged from the storage bag, emitting a strong golden light.

The next moment, golden light enveloped Jing Yu, and the whole person suddenly disappeared in the quiet room.

----

Puppet Secret Realm

Jing Yu, holding the golden token in his hand, stumbled into the secret square. After so many years, the place was already empty. Only the puppet statue in the center of the square was still sitting cross-legged in the same posture.

"What does that mean? Why did this secret realm token automatically activate?"

Jing Yu stared at the golden token in his hand, feeling somewhat puzzled as he watched the number on it change from [four] to [three].

After all, these are two complete chances to escape disaster and it is hard not to feel sad to use up just one of them.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the familiar dull metallic sound rang out again:

"It has been detected that the inheritor's physical cultivation has reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the core test will automatically begin."

As soon as he finished speaking, the secret door in the puppet's abdomen slowly opened, and a gray stone puppet walked out of it. It held a stone stick in its hand, its eyes flashing with a faint blue color, and it picked up the stone stick and attacked Jing Yu!

"A puppet in the early stage of foundation building!"

Jing Yu's face turned stern, and he shouted, "Just in time!"

It’s a good opportunity to test the quality of the treasure body realm!

Jing Yu stretched out his right hand, turned his palm into a fist, and faced the puppet's stick directly.

boom!

The fists and sticks collided, and both sides took a step back. Jing Yu's right fist was intact, only stained with a little powder, but there were a few barely noticeable cracks on the puppet's stick.

This stone puppet seemed to be quite intelligent. Seeing that it could not gain any advantage by head-on confrontation, a faint blue light flashed in its eyes. It lowered its body and began to wander around Jing Yu. The next moment, it found an opportunity and moved behind Jing Yu with extremely fast movements!

"What a clever puppet! It's worthy of being at the Foundation Establishment level!"

Facing the stick that appeared out of nowhere and stabbed towards his lower back, Jing Yu suddenly spread a pair of wings behind him and escaped from the spot in just a moment.

The stone puppet's sneak attack failed, and it was apparently stunned on the spot. It looked up and saw the enemy flying in the air. Suddenly, rows of fine stone holes opened up on its back, spewing out powerful streams of air to lift it up!

"It can even fly! The Foundation Establishment puppet does have a lot more tricks than the Qi Training puppet!"

Jing Yu nodded and stopped wasting time. In fact, he knew the fastest way to defeat this puppet the first time he saw it. He just wanted to try out the various methods of the Treasure Body Realm.

The next moment, Jing Yu snapped his fingers, and a gray, bitter light shot out, accurately hitting the head of the stone puppet.
