Chapter 801: Body Transformation
Sage had a tough time deciding on which body transformation route he wished to follow, but then remembered something he had recently gained. The library hed stolen from the ruins of the Violent Sun Sect. Their strange sect and its high air pressure were actually because of the Cultivation Technique they practiced. In fact it wasnt a Qi cultivation technique at all, as the Violent Sun Sect turned out to be a rare sect of Body Cultivators.
In the past, hed only heard rumors and hearsay of Body Cultivators. Even if hed met a few, they merely seemed like cultivators with stronger bodies instead of Qi, but now that he had access to the hidden library of an ancient sect he saw how wrong he was. Most of those Body Cultivators he met in the past were merely Qi Cultivators that had trained in a few body hardening arts and techniques. It turned out that true Body Cultivators had a different path to immortality than others. Regular Cultivators would work to create their inner core and then fuse their soul and mind into that core to form their Nascent Soul, then they would learn laws and infuse those laws into their body until the Nascent Soul and Body truly became one. Since they no longer had to worry about a body and could just grow it out of their own power, they could just fly into the air and didnt have to worry about aging any more. This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
Or at least thats how he understood it. Sage hadnt reached that level and most people didnt know the truth. Hed pieced together the hints and clues from people like Tao Ba, Guan Zhenyan, the Lang Clan Ancestors, and old texts, but he wasnt sure of it.
Body Cultivators on the other hand were entirely different. They didnt focus on filling the dantian with Qi and turning it into a power center, they infused it into every inch of their flesh, bone, and internal organs. Rather than learning to release this energy into the world they turned it all inward and made their bodies into living weapons. They didnt release bursts of flame, nor did they cover their bodies in stone, all of their power was contained within. The stages of their cultivation were concerned with completely transforming the various parts of the body. The skin, then the muscles, the tendons, the bones, and finally the organs. When their entire bodies were completely transformed they would be equivalent to a Core Formation Cultivator.
It was only at this point did they start to align with a Qi Cultivator. The Body Cultivator would have to make their body resonate with the laws of the world. When they could bring those laws into themselves and make use of them, they could match a Nascent Soul in combat, and gain an undying body. Nascent Souls could survive without their bodies, but an equivalent Body Cultivator had a sort of impossible regeneration ability. Not only was their flesh tougher than most metals, but it took greater and greater amounts of damage to kill them. The stronger they got, the more powerful their ability of regeneration became.
Sage applied these same principles to the metal body his other son developed, changing it to better accommodate the Violent Sun Sects high pressure training. It was slow going and somewhat demoralizing since a failed test meant a year resetting the body back to a default starting point, but then he made a breakthrough by trying something he considered silly, but just couldnt help himself from attempting. He incorporated the Blue Icesilver, the Heavenly Material that he used in his Blacksilver Pawns, and it had a high degree of compatibility with his body.
It took a few dozen more attempts between him and the other researchers to iron out all the kinks, but eventually they developed a new path for the Clans body transformation: Liquid Metal. In order for this transformation to work, the whole body didnt just become a form of liquid metal, instead it was more of a hybridization between the original metal body and the Blue Icesilver. Blue Icesilver in its natural state was a solid metal after all and only when Qi is poured into it does it gain a more liquid and controllable quality. Given the requirement of Qi it made for a poor Body Cultivation only change, but for a cultivator, they could inject Qi into their body and it would actually speed up the body cultivating process.
From what he understood, the techniques to transform the body were methods to push out the impurities and imperfections. To the science of Earth this seemed pretty nonsensical, but given that it worked, it meant that either the natural rules of this world were different, or these techniques operated on a scale or scope that he had no idea of. For all he knew, these things were going on in the space between atoms, maybe it was some sort of metaphysical part of the body that light and electromagnetic energy could not affect, or it could even be something that only was present because of the energy of the heavens and earth that were so useful here.
Whatever the case, these techniques made bodies stronger, and by turning his body into liquid metal it could switch between a tougher and softer state. As a Body Cultivator got stronger, it would take more and more effort to keep strengthening themselves. The Liquid Metal body allowed him to train with much reduced conditions and still improve. It was much like being able to purposely reduce his physical strength so that he could train with lighter weights and still get returns.
In a pinch, those with the Liquid Metal body could soften their exoskeleton and squish through a smaller opening, but for the most part it was much more useful to reshape their outer shell to add spikes, blades or patterns to the exoskeleton. Altering the other parts of the body was very tricky and could cause internal damage if they werent careful. More than a few of the researchers had to consume pills to recover from such organ damage.
