Chapter 518: 515: Refining the Divine Body_1
Yang Chen was overjoyed when he heard Yu Ban’s detailed explanation. It was the place where the Tiandu Emperor used to enslave demonic beasts.
Indeed, it was a pleasant surprise because there were not only joys but also shocks. According to Yu Ban, the Beast Enslavement Hall housed demonic beasts ranging from the Spirit Martial Realm to the Heaven Martial Realm, all of which were captured by the Tiandu Emperor and left here to help future generations.
For example, helping with training would be a significant aid.
“The Emperor intended to leave the Beast Enslavement Hall for these demonic beasts to help his inheritors practice. Young Master, if you need it, I can find any demonic beast of any cultivation level for you. With me personally watching, I can control the prohibition at any time to let you out. You can rest assured that these evil creatures won’t hurt you.” Yu Ban grinned.
He had also followed the Tiandu Emperor and experienced the war between demonic beasts and humans back then, so he naturally held no good feelings towards them and constantly referred to them as evil creatures.
Yang Chen didn’t have a one-sided opinion about demonic beasts. At least the Black Mountain Black Bear and Golden Claw Python had been loyal to him, so he had no reason to reject them.
Thinking of the Black Mountain Black Bear and Golden Claw Python, Yang Chen couldn’t help but say, “Elder Yu Ban, how are my bear brothers and demonic python brother doing? Let them out and let me have a look.”
“Oh? That won’t do. The Black Mountain Black Bear brothers were recently disciplined by me, and they are now in the best stage of cultivation. As for your Golden Claw Python, it is still refining those demonic corpses and is in a crucial level. I am afraid it will take a few more days for it to come out.” Yu Ban said.
Yang Chen was taken aback, “Elder Yu Ban, you disciplined those silly bears?”
“Hehe, Young Master, you don’t have to worry about my methods. I have dealt with demonic beasts for countless years, and I understand them well. Rest assured, once they go through my hands, these two silly bears will surely be reborn.” Yu Ban mysteriously did not explain the situation, only giving Yang Chen a hint.
Yang Chen was itching to know, but since Yu Ban didn’t say anything, he didn’t know how to ask. He sighed, “Alright then, Elder Yu Ban, please lead me to the Beast Enslavement Hall.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Yu Ban waved his hand, and in an instant, they were inside the Beast Enslavement Hall.
Of course, there were no demonic beasts in the main hall of the Beast Enslavement Hall.
The demonic beasts were kept in other places within the hall.
Yu Ban asked kindly, “Young Master, what level of demonic beast would you like to challenge?”
“Hmm… let’s try one at the third layer of the Origin Martial Realm first.” Yang Chen said.
“Yes, Young Master!” Yu Ban beckoned and controlled the prohibition.
Yang Chen blinked and found his surroundings had changed. Yu Ban was still by his side, but a massive, pitch-black eagle appeared a dozen feet away in front of him.
This giant eagle flapped its wings, its eyes locked onto Yang Chen.
“Young Master, be careful. This is the Long Sickness Eagle. Its speed is unparalleled, and its claws are incredibly sharp. Its every strike is lethal.” Yu Ban warned.
“I understand.” Yang Chen didn’t feel any pressure and was quite interested in the giant eagle.
The giant eagle spoke in the language of beasts, “A human? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a human. It seems you are here for training by the old thief, Tiandu. Well, in that case, I’ll take your life!”
With that, the giant eagle instantly rushed towards Yang Chen.
Yu Ban didn’t lie; the Long Sickness Eagle’s speed was indeed fast, and it was aiming to kill with every move. It raised its claws and instantly pounced on Yang Chen.
For the Long Sickness Eagle, speed was its strength.
It thought that Yang Chen couldn’t react to its speed.
But soon, it found out.
It was wrong.
The moment the eagle made its move, not only did Yang Chen react, but he also dodged it.Yang Chen shook his head, raising his fingers and spoke in beast language, “Not fast enough.”
Chang Ji Ying became furious.
This human was actually teasing it!
With an instantaneous screech, its eagle eyes filled with blood, and it rushed towards Yang Chen once more.
Yang Chen still dodged very quickly.
Yu Ban watched and wondered what Yang Chen was planning to do. It seemed like he was clearly playing with Chang Ji Ying.
Although it looked amusing, Yu Ban also understood Yang Chen’s strength. Though both were at the Origin Martial Realm Third Layer, it was usually demonic beasts who toyed with humans. But Yang Chen? He played with Chang Ji Ying as if it were in the palm of his hand.
If it were Chang Ji Ying, it would even be considering suicide.
“Hmm? Young Master, be careful!” Yu Ban cried suddenly.
Chang Ji Ying’s claws struck down suddenly, and Yang Chen seemed unable to dodge. Following that, with a swish, Yang Chen’s clothes were torn, and blood gushed from the wound, spurting out.
Chang Ji Ying screeched triumphantly, “Humans, aren’t you arrogant? Aren’t you overconfident?”
“Not bad, Chang Ji Ying, you’re doing well. Keep going like this.” Yang Chen smirked.
Hearing Yang Chen still mocking, Chang Ji Ying opened its beak and let out an angry screech once more, wanting to kill this human before it and making efforts to do so. However, it found it very difficult to harm Yang Chen.
No, to be precise, it was tough for it to inflict a fatal injury on Yang Chen.
For Chang Ji Ying, this was not acceptable. When it attacked, it was supposed to cause fatal wounds. It knew where the vital parts of ten thousand species lay as it was born to deliver fatal blows to others!
Though it did injure Yang Chen, the injuries were trivial. Not only did Yang Chen show no signs of discomfort, but he also seemed quite happy. He seemed to enjoy fighting with it and even encouraged it to attack him!
This was humiliating.
Since when had demonic beasts been toyed with like this by humans?
Chang Ji Ying became even angrier, as if a ball of fire was burning in its heart.
Yu Ban finally figured out the trick by now.
“Young Master is practicing Body Refinement Technique?” Yu Ban murmured. He could tell that Yang Chen’s injuries were healing unusually quickly. As soon as Chang Ji Ying wounded him, the wounds healed fast.
Moreover, Yang Chen deliberately let Chang Ji Ying injure him, but he dodged its fatal attacks every time.
As this continued, Yang Chen’s defensive abilities seemed to improve increasingly. Initially, Chang Ji Ying could leave a deep wound on Yang Chen’s body, but after several attempts, the wound became shallower and shallower.
Of course, it was not because Chang Ji Ying got exhausted; it was clear that Yang Chen’s physique had grown stronger.
Yu Ban was right.
Yang Chen was indeed tempering his body.
What he practiced was none other than the Tai Chu Divine Body!
This Tai Chu Divine Body was something he had practiced when he first entered the Body Refining Realm. Later on, when he reached the Spirit Martial Realm, he hadn’t practiced the Tai Chu Divine Body much. But that didn’t mean he had forgotten it. He was fully aware of the importance of the Tai Chu Divine Body as a body-refining method for him.
