Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 1656 - 1647: Stronger than the Divine King Body
"Alright, let’s call it a day for today’s practice. Everyone, take a rest."
It wasn’t clear how much time had passed, but when the children were all drenched in sweat, the Saint Master of the Wu Family, Wu Yunzhe, spoke up.
He waved his sleeves, and it seemed like the void trembled, causing the children in the square to lie on the ground, gasping for breath as if a great burden had been lifted.
It turned out that during their training, Wu Yunzhe had been enveloping the square with an invisible pressure.
This created a sense of oppression during training, which naturally brought more benefits to their practice.
"Hey! Ha!"
Everyone was lying on the ground, visibly exhausted, yet surprisingly, there was a child still persisting. Despite being drenched in sweat with beads of perspiration on his face, he had no intention of stopping.
Wu Yunzhe seemed accustomed to this, knowing that diligent effort is a good thing, but this child did the same every time, continuing to train for two hours after others had finished. Eventually, he might exhaust himself.
Finally, Wu Yunzhe didn’t leave immediately this time. Instead, he approached the child and couldn’t help but speak, "Ji Ming, you should rest as well. If you continue like this, your body will eventually fail to keep up and you’ll end up exhausting yourself."
"Grandfather, I’m not tired. I can keep going," he replied stubbornly.
This child’s name was Wu Jiming, the son of Wu Lingfeng’s cousin. He had just turned ten this year but hadn’t started cultivation yet.
The Wu Family’s cultivation technique mainly focused on body refinement. Generally, family members undergo physical training before the age of twelve, and only start cultivating spiritual power after reaching twelve.
This training method had been sustained for many years, with proven effectiveness; otherwise, the Wu Family wouldn’t have continued with this approach.
Although Wu Jiming was ten and hadn’t stepped into cultivation, he had been training here since he was seven. His power of body was formidable, even a typical Vein Condesation Realm expert might not withstand a punch from him. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
"Diligent practice is a good thing, but to become a true strong person, one must maintain rationality. Knowing many actions are impossible yet insisting on them breeds recklessness even if one grows stronger," Wu Yunzhe smiled and patted Wu Jiming’s head.
Wu Jiming seemed to understand vaguely, stood up straight, and looked at his grandfather curiously, "Was my uncle and my father only training for three hours a day in the past too?"
The uncle he referred to was naturally Wu Lingfeng.
The former Beiming Divine Body, the name Wu Lingfeng, not only circulated in Beiming, but also across the entire Tiannan, and even the Outer Heaven Gang.
He had long become a model for many younger members of the Wu Family. Wu Jiming constantly set Wu Lingfeng as his goal, determined to become a top-tier strong person like him one day.
Hearing Wu Jiming’s words, Wu Yunzhe nodded and reiterated, "Our family’s training method maximizes the potential within you. Training excessively like you are doing is pointless, only leading to exhaustion and hindering future growth."
"I understand now. Thank you, grandfather, for your guidance. From now on, I will follow the training method of my uncle and father. As long as I train like them, I can certainly become a strong person like my uncle and protect the Wu Family." The little guy said seriously with a solemn look on his face.
"Grandfather, can you tell us about Little Ancestor?"
Around them, other children had also gathered, the oldest being no more than twelve and the youngest only seven.
Back then, when Wu Lingfeng left with Mo Wangchen, they naturally hadn’t met Wu Lingfeng in person.
At most, they had only seen portraits within the family, but that did not hinder their admiration for Wu Lingfeng, as he was the pride of the Wu Family.
"Ling Feng back then was much more mischievous than you all..."
Wu Yunzhe chuckled while reminiscing, his gaze involuntarily looking towards the distant horizon, eyes filled with a sense of recollection and a hint of longing.
After all, his child had left this Star Domain for many years. For Wu Yunzhe to say he didn’t miss or worry, that was impossible.
"Grandfather, I heard Little Ancestor left with Mo Venerable back then. My dad said yesterday Mo Venerable returned to Tiannan. Will Little Ancestor come back too?" A seven-year-old asked.
Wu Yunzhe shook his head. If Wu Lingfeng had returned, he would have come back to the Wu Family.
Evidently, Mo Wangchen returned to Tiannan alone this time, without Wu Lingfeng.
"Mo Venerable possesses the Divine King Body, many say his physique is the greatest in ancient Tiannan. Does that mean it’s stronger than Little Ancestor’s True Dragon Body?"
"I heard Mo Venerable had mentored Little Ancestor, and they were sworn brothers. Now Mo Venerable has returned to Tiannan; will he visit our Wu Family?"
A group of children asked nonstop, leaving Wu Yunzhe unsure of how to respond. Wu Lingfeng was certainly the family idol, yet in their hearts, Mo Wangchen with his Divine King Body was also extraordinarily revered.
After all, he was a legendary figure who had once safeguarded Tiannan!
"The True Dragon Body... of course, it’s mightier than the Divine King Body..."
As Wu Yunzhe was surrounded by questioning children, suddenly, they heard a gentle chuckle not far away.
Everyone looked in unison and saw a young man in white approaching with a smile, who else could it be but Mo Wangchen?
The children did not recognize him, all with faces full of confusion and curiosity, asking, "Why is the True Dragon Body stronger than the Divine King Body?"
"Because the True Dragon Body is called Beiming’s Divine Body. It’s bold enough to fight against the True Dragon; not many have possessed such a powerful physique throughout history. If you train well, you’ll grow to become strong like Little Ancestor." Mo Wangchen said with a smile.
"Really?"
"Can we cultivate a True Dragon Physique too? If I can, I would endure any tough training."
The children’s faces all lit up with excitement, surrounding Mo Wangchen, asking incessantly.
Finally, Wu Yunzhe stepped in, dispersing them, "Alright, you all go rest now. Tomorrow, during practice, I will assess the results of your recent training. Hurry and get into top shape."
The children obediently left, leaving only Wu Yunzhe and Mo Wangchen.
"Ling Feng... Is he well?"
Wu Yunzhe acknowledged Mo Wangchen with a slight bow, clearly recognizing him, and surprisingly aware that Mo Wangchen had come to the Wu Family.
Nowadays, Mo Wangchen was a legend of Tiannan; these children couldn’t comprehend the significance, but his heart was acutely aware.
