Falling Star Pavilion, Back Mountain.
By the lotus pond.
A gentle breeze rippled across the water, and the dark-green lotus leaves swayed lightly in the wind. In the center of the pond, inside a small pavilion, the curtain fluttered while the clear sound of wind chimes rang softly.
While the outside world of Central Plains was turbulent, with all kinds of factions stirring restlessly over the news of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, Wei Yang, on the other hand, was living quite leisurely.
Each day, he either meditated quietly or spent time with his wife and child, his life calm and peaceful. Unlike Xiao Yan, he didn't carry too much of a sense of urgency. After all, for him, becoming a Dou Sheng was only a matter of time.
The Bodhisattva Heart wasn't a necessity for him. Rather than chasing after that, it was better to adjust his state of mind and prepare himself for the Hundred Reincarnations — that was what truly mattered.
In the quiet pavilion, curls of sandalwood incense wafted in the air. Wei Yang wore loose robes, sitting cross-legged and barefoot upon a meditation cushion forged from Core Mother Jade. With a flick of his palm, a light-golden scroll appeared in his hand.
Tilting it slightly, he could see a few ancient characters etched firmly and powerfully on its side King Kong Glass Body. Wei Yang smiled faintly, a glimmer of curiosity in his eyes. Lifting his hand, he pressed the scroll against his forehead and closed his eyes slightly.
This Heaven Grade Dou Technique wasn't as troublesome to acquire as the Great Heaven Creation Palm it could be read directly using soul power.
The reason the Great Heaven Creation Palm had been such a hassle was entirely because that so-called Saint Zhao Hua had hidden the technique inside his own three ribs completely unnecessary.
As the scroll touched his brow, Wei Yang's mind stirred, and his soul power poured into it. At once, the scroll burst forth with dazzling golden light that bloomed brilliantly. A massive torrent of information surged into Wei Yang's mind like a flood.
"King Kong Glass Body, a Low-Level Heaven Grade Dou Technique. It transforms the body into King Kong Glass — unbreakable, indestructible.
Once perfected, the cultivator attains a body of nine zhang and nine chi, radiating supreme golden brilliance. A fist can shatter the heavens, a kick can split the earth."
Seeing those countless glowing golden characters floating and echoing endlessly in his mind, Wei Yang could feel the fierce and domineering nature of this Dou Technique. It was a special method that strengthened the physical body through Dou Qi.
After carefully studying its cultivation process, Wei Yang couldn't help but sigh in admiration. As expected of a technique created by a Dou Sheng expert — it was indeed profound and extraordinary. By now, Wei Yang's experience and perception were already quite sharp.
With his current cultivation at Ban Sheng level, the methods and Dou Techniques he practiced many of them of Heaven Grade — were not few. Thus, understanding this particular body-refining Dou Technique wasn't too difficult for him.
As the saying goes, "Master one law, understand all laws." Though each cultivation technique differs in process, they often lead to the same fundamental truths.
To cultivate the King Kong Glass Body, one must fuse the Dou Technique into the bones, tendons, blood, and skin in a special manner. Such fusion required exceedingly precise control over both the body and Dou Qi — the requirements were extremely strict.
Basically, anyone below the Spirit Realm of soul cultivation would be wise not to attempt it, or accidents could easily occur. Of course, this method also demanded immense physical strength. Fortunately, Wei Yang met all these conditions perfectly.
As for his soul, he was already at the mid stage of the Heaven Realm. His physical body — that was his strongest point. With a Ban Sheng body and the bloodline of the Hou, his physical form was terrifyingly strong — even surpassing that of the same-level Ancient Void Dragon.
After studying the cultivation technique carefully for a while,
Huff—
Wei Yang exhaled softly and put down the scroll. He slowly closed his eyes and adjusted his mental state. Then, following the method described in the scroll, he began attempting to cultivate the so-called King Kong Glass Body.
Crack... crack... crack...
Not long after he officially started cultivating, faint streaks of black light suddenly burst from the surface of his body.
As the black light burst forth, Wei Yang's body suddenly swelled in size. Faintly, the sounds of bones twisting, writhing, and grinding against each other echoed from within. The expansion quickened, the black radiance growing ever denser.
Crackle!
Thin arcs of black lightning shot out from his pores, snaking around the surface of his body. Before one's eyes, his frame visibly grew larger and larger. In less than a minute, Wei Yang's height and build had nearly doubled.
He now looked like a small giant—towering and broad, like a black iron tower. His previously fair skin had turned into a deep shade of black-gold. When his body expanded to roughly twice its size, it suddenly stopped, and the black-gold glow began to dim and fade away.
His figure quickly shrank, returning to its original form in the blink of an eye.
"Hmph."
As his body returned to normal size, Wei Yang frowned, snapping his eyes open with a muffled groan.
A trace of crimson blood slowly seeped from the corner of his mouth, sliding down his chin. The bright red against his pale skin looked startlingly vivid. Taking several deep breaths, Wei Yang's lips twitched slightly, his brows furrowing as his face turned somewhat grim.
The Saint Liu Li who created this technique didn't even bother to mention that cultivating the King Kong Glass Body came with such excruciating pain. He had been unprepared for it, almost losing control of the technique mid-process.
Just imagine—when a person's body suddenly doubles in size, what kind of feeling would that be inside?
Skin tearing apart, muscles swelling to the point of bursting, tendons stretching taut, bones—
"Ugh, that pain almost made me lose focus just now."
"No wonder this method demands such a powerful physique. If someone with a weaker body tried it, their flesh would probably have been torn apart during the first expansion." Wei Yang frowned and shook his head helplessly.
Then, closing his eyes again, he steadied his breath and adjusted his mind. A little pain wasn't enough to stop him from continuing. After all, to gain power beyond the ordinary, one must be willing to pay a price.
As long as he could endure this agony, with the strength of his constitution, Wei Yang would soon adapt to the pain of transformation, and his body would grow even tougher. Only then could he truly display the full might of the King Kong Glass Body.
For now, what he needed to do was keep expanding his body over and over—forcing his skin, muscles, tendons, and bones to gradually adapt to the torment.
"Sigh, cultivating a body-refining method really is a form of torture."
With a quiet sigh in his heart, Wei Yang began cultivating again.
Black-golden light flared out once more, lightning arcing around his body as it expanded, shrank, expanded, and shrank again. During the process, streaks of blood continuously flowed from the corner of his mouth, as if they cost nothing.
But as time passed, the bleeding slowly subsided. The cultivation gradually entered the right track. Once Wei Yang had mentally prepared himself, he no longer experienced the same instability as the first time.
Pain, once you start adapting to it, is not something unbearable.
Besides, he had once endured the torment of cultivating the Nine-Refinement Heavenly Soul pain that reached deep into the soul itself. Compared to that, this mere agony of torn flesh was nothing.
