"The Innate Secret Method is the Body Sect's foremost secret technique. Junior Brother and I are both Disciples of our Teacher, so I will explain it to you…"
On an open-air training platform on the Douluo Continent, two figures, a brawny man and a young boy, sat cross-legged. The sun was high in the sky, casting fragmented light spots that illuminated an exceptionally delicate Face.
"Junior Brother Zaixing, you enjoy reading. What do you think is the strongest Spirit in this world? And what are the advantages of our Body Martial Soul?"
A Ruheng, the current successor of the Body Sect, was exceptionally robust, with shoulders so broad they could rival two ordinary people. He asked the young boy opposite him in a gentle voice, a kind smile on his Face.
Hearing A Ruheng's words, Feng Zaixing took out a copy of "The Pan-Continent Spirit Compendium," paused as he flipped to a few pages, and then, with a very serious expression on his tender Face, began to speak eloquently:
"The strongest Spirits to have appeared in history were the Seraphim of the Spirit Hall in ancient times and the Sea God of Sea God Island. However, the Seraphim ceased to exist after the Spirit Hall's defeat, though the degenerated Holy Angel is still a top-tier Spirit. The Sea God Spirit has also long since vanished."
"My Body Martial Soul has always been ranked among the super Spirits since ancient times. The Spirits of the current top-tier powerhouses are also excellent choices, such as Shrek's Qingtian Douluo, the War God Hall's Vast Sea Douluo, the Spirit Transfer Pagoda's War Heaven Douluo, and the Tang Sect's Ruthless Douluo. Their Spirits are no worse than ours."
A Ruheng nodded in praise: "Junior Brother is very familiar with the current top-tier powerhouses."
Feng Zaixing smiled modestly: "Senior Brother overpraises me. The advantage of my Body Martial Soul is, first, that it provides the greatest amplification to Spirit Masters. Ten thousand years ago, Spirit Ice Douluo's mental force was unprecedentedly powerful. Senior Brother Cultivates the Innate Secret Method, and your Qi and blood are far stronger than your peers."
"Secondly, it lies in the second and third Awakenings. This is where the Sect's secret methods come into play. The Innate Secret Method is the most formidable. When Cultivated to its extreme, one enters the Golden Arhat Realm, also known as the Impervious Golden Body, where physical strength rivals that of a true Divinity."
As he spoke, Feng Zaixing clenched his fist and punched forward, causing a crisp sonic boom, and the skin on his arm glowed with a faint red light.
This was a manifestation of externalized blood Qi. He Cultivated an Acquired secret method, laying a Cultivation Foundation before Awakening his Spirit.
"Haha! Junior Brother is right. Cultivating the Innate Secret Method to its highest Realm will lead to rapid progress in Cultivation, and one will quickly become a quasi-god."
A Ruheng laughed heartily, very fond of this steady and precocious Junior Brother. Then his voice lowered a few degrees, his eyes sparkling, and he said:
"The last time our Sect saw a Golden Arhat was thousands of years ago. My goal is to make the Golden Arhat reappear. With you and me in the Body Sect, we will surely achieve resurgence."
After speaking, A Ruheng began to explain the secrets of the Innate Secret Method to Feng Zaixing, from his experience with Heaven And Earth Treasure medicinal baths to his current mastery of his body, detailing each principle without holding anything back.
A Ruheng did this not only because they were fellow Disciples but also with the tacit approval of Body Sect Master Mu Ye. Feng Zaixing had a pitiable background; his parents died a year ago, leaving him an orphan, making him an absolute insider.
Feng Zaixing listened intently, asking questions whenever he had doubts. His mind was quick, unlike a six-year-old child about to Awaken his Spirit.
He was indeed not a normal child but a Transmigrator. In his previous life, he was on Earth, with a family tradition of health preservation techniques.
Unfortunately, times had changed, and he met with a drunk driver in a hundred-ton truck.
His situation was very special. In this life, he initially had no memories of his previous life until a year ago, when news of his parents' demise reached Heaven Dou City. Overwhelmed by grief, he fell ill.
Mu Ye intervened to save him, and during his recovery, he Awakened his past life memories.
In a daze, he spent a month sorting out the memories of both lives, and his mental force greatly increased, breaking through to the Spirit Essence Realm and entering the Spirit Comprehension Realm. His memory soared, granting him the ability to remember everything at a glance.
At the same time, his appetite greatly increased, and his Qi and blood improved rapidly.
The Spirit Comprehension Realm corresponds to a mental force score exceeding one hundred, allowing for spiritual insight and the realization of intentions. A Spirit Master reaching this Realm can bear two yellow Spirit Souls or one purple Spirit Soul, and can at least Cultivate to the Spirit Elder level without worrying about mental force issues.
Feng Zaixing's father was Mu Ye's Junior Brother. Besides his grief, Mu Ye thought that heaven was showing mercy to his Junior Brother and the Body Sect, so he immediately took Feng Zaixing as a Disciple, personally teaching him one of the strongest Acquired secret methods to polish his Cultivation Foundation.
A Ruheng also pitied Feng Zaixing's background. Over the past year, he had come to regard Feng Zaixing as his own brother.
After a while, A Ruheng finished recounting most of his experiences. Feng Zaixing handed him a can of energy drink, then smiled at Mu Ye and Zhen Hua, who had appeared at some point, stood up, cupped his hands, and said:
"Two Teachers, I am ready. Please take me to Awaken my Spirit."
"Zaixing, I've told you before, there's no need for so much formality. My Forging Master Association isn't as strict as the Body Sect," Zhen Hua said with a somewhat chiding smile, helping Feng Zaixing up.
Mu Ye pouted, pulled A Ruheng aside, and whispered: "My Disciple is sensible on his own, what does that have to do with me? Our Body Sect has long since integrated into the new era."
Zhen Hua turned back, smiled, and retorted: "It's not your fault. Are you telling me to blame myself instead?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye's brow twitched. He pointed at Zhen Hua and indignantly said:
"You just wait, I promise to put extra salt in lunch today. I'll make sure it's too salty for you."
"No problem, I'll eat your portion," Zhen Hua said nonchalantly.
Mu Ye's Face immediately darkened. A Ruheng quickly massaged Mu Ye's back to soothe him, and Feng Zaixing also spoke soothingly, worried that the chef might throw a tantrum.
Soon, Mu Ye and Zhen Hua reconciled, and the four moved to a new scene, walking among the sprawling buildings of the Blacksmiths' Association headquarters in Heaven Dou City.
Occasionally passing a bustling forging room, their ears would be filled with the clanging sounds of hammering iron.
Whenever this happened, Feng Zaixing would calm his mind, close his eyes, and use his ears and mental force to capture the rhythm of the blacksmiths' hammering. His fair Face would furrow and relax, as if he was trying to grasp something.
Mu Ye and A Ruheng softened their footsteps, while Zhen Hua's lips curved upwards, smiling as he watched the scene, occasionally nodding, clearly approving of this Disciple who had already become a First-Rank Forging Master.
"It is precisely this kind of perseverance that allows one to bravely climb the Peak on the path of forging…"
Zhen Hua's gaze towards Feng Zaixing was filled with expectation.
As early as after sorting out his memories from his previous life, Feng Zaixing had decided on his first auxiliary profession—forging. With his outstanding talent and Mu Ye's Face, he convinced Zhen Hua to accept him as a student.
There were two reasons for choosing forging: first, battle armor was too important in this era, and forging metal was the core technology for crafting battle armor. He couldn't feel at ease unless he mastered it himself.
Second, the identity of a Divine Craftsman's Disciple offered many conveniences. Zhen Hua's network was arguably the best on the Continent, and he also possessed vast resources.
In this era, it was impossible to rise without a patron. Feng Zaixing knew he had to utilize all available resources to reach the Realm he sought in the shortest possible time.
Having lived two lives, he was unwilling to be ordinary. His original goal in this life was also to become a powerful Spirit Master.
Moreover, both his past and present lives were him. His parents in this life had been with him for four years, and then passed away. The memories were still very clear, and there were some things he had to do to give himself closure… In the era of the Sun Moon Federation, the Spirit Transfer Pagoda undertook the task of freely Awakening Spirits for commoners. People would not be like they were ten thousand years ago, without even the chance to Awaken their Spirits. The Spirit Transfer Pagoda's actions had accumulated much goodwill, and it could also discover Geniuses at the first opportunity.
However, although the Body Sect had declined, it would certainly not allow its Disciples to Awaken their Spirits at the Spirit Transfer Pagoda. The precise tools for Awakening Spirits and testing various data were not expensive; Mu Ye could buy ten sets.
"Zaixing, relax your body and mind, don't be nervous."
In a soundproof, anti-detection special room, Feng Zaixing stood before the Spirit Awakening instrument. Mu Ye's expression was a mix of excitement and nervousness, his gaze fixed on his second Disciple, his voice trembling.
His second Disciple was a Genius rarely seen in hundreds of years, just like A Ruheng. Even before Awakening his Spirit, he had mastered several combat techniques, and his mental force talent was powerful. Without any accidents, he would have Innate full spirit power. It just remained to be seen what Spirit he would Awaken.
Zhen Hua chuckled and said: "Zaixing's father's Spirit was skin, and his mother's Spirit was a healing angel. No matter which one it is, it will… Sorry, Zaixing, I didn't mean to bring it up."
Feng Zaixing's expression dimmed slightly. He shook his head and whispered: "Teacher Hua, please don't worry. I understand that life must move forward. Teacher Mu, let's begin."
Whether it was an Body Martial Soul or an Angel Martial Soul, he would definitely strive for the Limit Douluo and even higher Realms.
Having Transmigrated to this life, he was unwilling to be a mere pawn. He had to climb the Peak and witness the scenery from the Summit.
