Chapter 792: Nine Exquisite Body!
Nine Exquisite Body! . . .
Zhan Yunfei continued to hold Cha Eun Xiao's hand, his eyes closed as if he were attempting to sense something profound. After a brief period, he shook his head and spoke, "Hmm. Strong blood, flexible Jing and Mai. Tough and firm. Elastic. No concealed injuries... It's good. Dantian is full, filled with purple qi. What you're cultivating appears to be an authentic martial art. That's quite... well, not bad."
Zhan Yunfei half-closed his eyes, his spiritual energy flowing over Cha Eun Xiao's Jing and Mai with remarkable speed, revealing every aspect of Cha Eun Xiao's physique. However, the power of the Boundless Space concealed the secrets of the East-rising Purple Qi, a peerless martial art that would not allow unrestricted exploration by others.
Nonetheless, Zhan Yunfei sensed something unusual.
In the next instant, he was struck with amazement. "Wait. This is not a Natural Exquisite Body! No!" He declared confidently, his normally pale face now flushed with excitement. "Mufei, you are mistaken."
"No? How can that be? It's impossible!" Xiao Mufei expressed disbelief. "I scrutinized his body thoroughly, and it fits every description of a Natural Exquisite Body..."
"Indeed, it does, because his body is a Nine Exquisite Body," Zhan Yunfei breathed deeply. "Mufei, you've brought an immensely precious treasure to the sect. We may have lost many disciples, but their sacrifice was of tremendous value. A Nine Exquisite Body far surpasses a Natural Exquisite Body."
"This young man possesses a perfect body, the only Nine Exquisite Body in a hundred thousand years." Zhan Yunfei's eyes gleamed with fervor as he stared at Cha Eun Xiao, as if he could consume him whole.
"There have been no records of such a body for one hundred thousand years..." Zhan Yunfei inhaled deeply and added, "This young man... might possess the only Nine Exquisite Body in history!"
"No wonder other sects were determined to kill him. His ten-thousand-year cultivation must have been the reason. I simply had no idea that this man possessed such a monstrous physical condition... A Nine Exquisite Body... That is vastly more valuable than ten-thousand-year cultivation!"
"One can progress in cultivation with time, but one's innate talent is immutable..." Zhan Yunfei nodded with immense satisfaction. He then released Cha Eun Xiao's hand and inquired, "Cha Chongxiao, would you be willing to join Cold Moon Palace?"
Cha Eun Xiao considered the situation. [They have been kind and amicable so far, but refusing now might lead to a disastrous outcome.]
"No matter what, I should accept for the time being," Cha Eun Xiao thought.
He responded with humility, "I owe Elder Xiao a great debt. I sincerely and humbly wish to join Cold Moon Palace to repay that debt."
Ye Chongxiao added calmly, although he felt somewhat bewildered by these unexpected revelations. [Why have I acquired a Nine Exquisite Body? How did Zhan Yunfei discover this? Is this some sort of joke?]
He promptly activated his martial arts to assess his own Jing and Mai, which yielded a shocking revelation.
Inside his body, purple qi pervaded every part of his Jing and Mai, even in his dantian. He undeniably possessed the legendary Nine Exquisite Body.
[What is happening? When I was reborn, I assessed my body and found it to be slightly above average, possessing no special talent. The East-rising Purple Qi improved my physical condition, granting me a Natural Spirit Body. Although it's commendable, it's considerably weaker than a Natural Exquisite Body or a Nine Exquisite Body.]
[My initial assessment might have been incorrect when I first returned to this world. However, I checked my body once more before ascending to this world, and it was still a Natural Spirit Body. How could it...?]
Cha Eun Xiao was left flabbergasted.
Cha Eun Xiao speculated, [Could it have been the lightning trial that altered my body?] He recalled the intense activity of the purple qi during the trial, how it made his body translucent when struck by lightning.
[It must be related to that trial,] he concluded.
East-rising Purple Qi had been gradually improving Cha Eun Xiao's physical condition. This force was a manifestation of nature's laws, as was the lightning trial that he had undergone. While different in nature, both had a similar underlying principle. Curiously, they had both acted upon him during his ascent and had somehow altered the very essence of his body.
This was the only explanation that made sense to Cha Eun Xiao, for others who had undergone the trial didn't experience such drastic changes in their bodies.
He felt a sense of relief thinking about this revelation.
While he had eagerly and humbly accepted membership in Cold Moon Palace, his thoughts remained preoccupied by the profound transformation his body had undergone. However, Zhan Yunfei seemed displeased by Cha Eun Xiao's distraction and scolded him, "Cha Chongxiao, you must understand Cold Moon Palace's esteemed position in the martial world of the Qing-Yun Realm. We are a super sect with a history spanning tens of thousands of years, ranking among the realm's top sects. We are renowned."
"In a realm inhabited by over thirty billion people, there are no more than twenty major sects. Cold Moon Palace undeniably stands as one of the ten most formidable sects."
Zhan Yunfei's brow furrowed as he continued, "You need to comprehend that you have just ascended to this world. The opportunity to join our sect is one of the greatest blessings you will ever receive in your life. You may be young and inexperienced, but you must not squander this heavenly gift."
Cha Eun Xiao's inner thoughts couldn't help but remark, [They make it sound like Cold Moon Palace is the number one sect in the universe. In reality, they're just one of the top ten. Tone down the boasting, will you? I'm in no position to challenge you right now, or else, do you think I'd play along with this charade?]
