Chapter 37: Chapter 37
The Indestructible Golden Body focused on defense.
If cultivated to perfection, even the Laws of Time could not completely corrode the physical body.
But while its defense was invincible, the cultivator’s inherent physical strength did not see a significant increase. Those who mastered the golden body lacked prominent offensive means.
In the past, the Great Buddha Aurian had fought a Demon for nine days and nine nights, only capturing it after the latter exhausted his strength.
The Divine Elephant Hell-Suppressing Scripture, conversely, cultivated physical blood qi, stimulating the potential of the human body to the extreme.
According to the Scripture’s records, if one cultivated it to great mastery, their physical strength would rival a supreme treasure of heaven and earth. A casual punch would possess the weight of thousands of tons, capable of battling true dragons.
Closing his eyes, Adam focused his entire mind on the Scripture and began to cultivate. A profoundly mysterious Dao rhythm gradually spread around him.
The originally handsome and jade-like Adam instantly shriveled up, but before long he quickly returned to normal. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Although he looked the same with no apparent changes, the aura he exuded became increasingly terrifying, and the blood qi inside his body grew more dense and boundless.
The Scripture refined the body’s blood qi, continuously condensing it into blood qi particles, every single particle contained a boundless amount of blood qi.
The more particles condensed, the stronger the physical body would become. If he could cultivate the Scripture to the extreme like Ren, he could even manifest earth-shattering anomalies like the ancient Divine Elephant.
Soon, Adam successfully condensed his first blood qi particle. He did not slack off, keeping his mind fully immersed in cultivation.
The moon set and the sun rose, the entire night passed quietly.
Early the next morning, Adam gradually awoke from his cultivation.
Sensing the blood qi within his body, a flash of joy passed through his eyes.
The Divine Elephant Hell-Suppressing Scripture was indeed worthy of being one of the supreme profound arts of the body-refining lineage. In just a single day, the blood qi in his body had increased by a full thirty percent.
With his blood qi increased by thirty percent, Adam casually slashed out a streak of Innate Sword Qi, feeling its power had strengthened by a few fractions as well.
In merely a single day, he could feel significant growth. If he continued cultivating like this, it would not take long for his overall strength to undergo a qualitative metamorphosis.

White Crane Dynasty, Immortal-Viewing Tower.
Immortal-Viewing Tower, located east of the Great River, was one of the most renowned ancient towers of the White Crane Dynasty.
The tower was divided into seven floors, each offering a different scenery.
On that seventh floor, even members of the White Crane Imperial Family rarely had the chance to ascend.
At this moment, two immaculately dressed youthful men sat beside an Eight Immortals table.
On the left was a man in a cyan robe. He had an extraordinary bearing, handsome and free-spirited, with a jade flute tied to his waist and a folding fan in his hand.
Although they were high up where the river breeze was cool, he still occasionally fanned himself. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
On the right was a youth in a white robe. He had a bit of childishness on his face and an equally extraordinary appearance, but a trace of viciousness revealed itself between his eyes, completely lacking the clear purity of a child.
"Third Brother, we have been searching through White Crane dynasty for a month now, and there is absolutely no trace of that Innate Dao Body."
For the past month, the white-robed youth had followed the cyan-robed youth all over the White Crane Dynasty, but they had found no trace of the Innate Dao Body the Patriarch had mentioned.
"Third Brother, heaven and earth anomalies are occurring everywhere nowadays, and the ambient spiritual energy is gradually recovering. How about we head back? Otherwise, we will not make it in time for the Hidden Dragon Mystic Realm."
"Gaining the appreciation of the Imperial Clan is important, but the Heaven and Earth Upheaval is already intensifying. Is it really worth it for some illusory reward from that Imperial Clan?"
A hint of retreat and impatience flashed in the white-robed youth’s eyes, he was unwilling to continue this fruitless labor.
The cyan-robed youth glanced at him, still calmly waving his folding fan, a faint smile on his face.
"Vorin, you are still too young. You do not know how powerful the Imperial Clan is, nor how profound their foundation truly is."
"Although our Ancient Ash Clan has a long heritage, compared to the Imperial Clan, the difference is like clouds and mud. Like a fisherman casting nets on the river compared to the Lord of the White Crane Dynasty."
Vorin had grown up in the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm since childhood.
If the Patriarch had not told him to follow his Third Brother out this time, he would never have taken a single step outside while the Heaven and Earth Upheaval was evolving so intensely.
Although he had always heard elders mention the Imperial Clan’s power, Vorin carried a sense of arrogance, feeling the clan elders were simply flattering them too much.
The Ancient Ash Clan had a long heritage. Looking across the entire Eastern Continent, it was absolutely a well-known major clan.
The Imperial Clan, on the other hand, was a Great Emperor’s lineage. During the First Heaven and Earth Upheaval, they were already the undisputed overlords of the Eastern Continent.
However, starting from the Second Heaven and Earth Upheaval, the Imperial Clan closed off their mystic realm. Even when great upheavals arrived, they rarely sent disciples out to fight for opportunities.
Over the endless years, the impression all the ancient clans had of the Imperial Clan remained stuck at the time of the First Upheaval.
Over the long passage of time, powerful ancient clans would occasionally rise up.
Although they harbored ambitions to replace the Imperial Clan as overlord, they never dared to actively test the waters.
Even today, not many among all the ancient clans in the entire Eastern Continent knew the true depths of that Imperial Clan’s power.
