As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

290 The Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body (1)

In the stone palace, the black sword had already translated the entire scripture on the stone tablet and relayed it to Jiang Ming.

“It refines the starlight of various worlds as well as the celestial energy for one’s own use.” Jiang Ming was going through the complete Star Refining Technique and was somewhat lost in thought.

Although this technique was called the Star Refining Technique, in addition to the power of the starlight, it could also refine all kinds of rare secret energies in the world and use them to temper the body. It was a secret technique that existed solely for the purpose of tempering the body.

“It’s indeed as the black sword said. It can be considered an extremely exquisite and rare technique to refine and absorb secret energies into one’s body. However, it’s a little too vague on how to unleash the effects of these secret energies. Moreover, although this technique seems to be incomplete, if it was combined with the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body, it seems like a perfect match. Is it really just a coincidence?”

The Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body was obtained by Jiang Ming from the old man he met on the mysterious starlit path. Its origin was surprisingly ancient. Even the old man did not know its original source. He only knew that if it could be perfected, it would be an invincible method of tempering the body.

During the two years of cultivation in the Black Wind Demonic Abyss, Jiang Ming carefully studied the scriptures of the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body several times. He found that although it was amazing and powerful after mastering it, it was immensely difficult.

For every three levels of the technique, he would have to face a tribulation. Only after passing this tribulation could he continue to practice the next level of the technique.

The tribulation was also a great opportunity. If one could pass it, the benefits they would obtain would be amazing.

According to the cultivation technique, if someone could pass the hundredth tribulation, they could be comparable to a true immortal.

However, the tribulations became more and more terrifying as one progressed. Even the creator of this cultivation method had only estimated that one needed to pass one hundred tribulations to become a true immortal. No one had actually reached this step.

This was also the reason why even though the old man had obtained this technique, he was unable to cultivate it fully.

He did not dare go through the terrifying tribulations as he cultivated further.

“Passing the tribulations is the easy part! However, I still can’t practice this technique. I have another issue that’s stopping me,” Jiang Ming said to himself.

To cultivate the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body fully, one also needed to absorb a lot of celestial energy.

However, although the scripture of the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body was profound, it was an ancient and primitive cultivation technique. It had not ironed out the finer details.

Although it explained how to use celestial energy to temper the body, it did not mention how to guide and refine the celestial energy. It was up to the cultivator to figure it out on his own.

Jiang Ming speculated that perhaps the origin of this technique was so ancient that the cultivation civilization of that era was extremely primitive. They only paid attention to the simplicity of the great cultivation. When it was created, they did not consider the finer details at all.

“In fact, when the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body was created, celestial energy was not as rare as it is in this era. Perhaps, many eras ago, celestial energy was completely different from today.”

Jiang Ming shook his head and stopped thinking about these problems. The main point now was that the Star Refining Technique he was comprehending at this time seemed to exist for the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body.

The weakness of the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body was that it could not draw and refine celestial energy. However, this was perfectly solved by the Star Refining Technique.

The more Jiang Ming studied the technique, the more he felt that there was a connection between the Star Refining Technique and the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body. Some of the flaws in it were too obvious. It was impossible for someone who could create a technique of this level to have such flaws.

The most likely possibility was that the creator of the Star Refining Technique only wanted to create a technique that could refine celestial energy.

“Perhaps there really is someone who created the Star Refining Technique in order to cultivate the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body,” Jiang Ming said softly. Although his guess was shocking, it was not impossible.

According to what the old man had said, he was not the only one who had discovered this technique. He had discovered it together with a few experts of the same generation. Perhaps this technique had also been passed down from the hands of others.

“No matter what, this might be the best opportunity to cultivate the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body!”

Jiang Ming’s eyes darted around. He eliminated all distracting thoughts and began to carefully study the Star Refining Technique.

Gradually, his body emitted a layer of faint light. It flickered as if he was breathing, and it contained a mysterious rhythm.

Then, a bit of light emerged and went into his body.

A hint of joy flashed across his face. “The celestial energy in this stone palace seems to be much stronger than the outside world. Is it because of the stars on the dome?”

Jiang Ming felt something in his heart and looked up. The stars were rotating and bursting with starlight.
