Transcending The Martial Peak - Chapter 105 Nine Leaves Of Mortality
Sheng Tian slowly stretched his muscles as cracking sounds were heard. These days, he mainly focused on Body Cultivation. His physical strength increased by a great deal. Though he cannot defeat even a foundation establishment peak cultivator solely based on his physical strength, holding his own is not a problem.
Celestial Body Tome is a body cultivation technique which didn’t follow the usual system of body cultivation according to Xiao Lian.
Body Cultivation follows the path of cultivating the body to the Heavenly Dao. In the System of Divine Realm, At Mortal level, Body cultivation is divided into 9 Major Realms. Also called as the Nine leaves of Mortality.
The first stage-The branch of skies
The second stage-Explosive muscles
The third stage-Stream of blood
The fourth stage-adamant bones
The fifth stage- Diamond Skin
The sixth stage-Golden organs
The seventh stage-Dragon tendons
The eighth stage-Crystal marrow
The ninth stage-Roc’s Breath
When a Cultivator embarks on the journey of Body Cultivation, the singular manifestation of the first step he took would be the illusory appearance of a small stem with his heart as the root on the body. This also signifies that the warrior reached the threshold to start budding the nine leaves of mortality.
Each Major realm corresponds to a leaf. The Mortal Realm thus consists of Nine Leaves. Each Major Realm could correspond to its Energy Cultivation Realm counterpart. For instance, the Sixth level of the Body Cultivation, the Sixth of Mortality-Golden Organs would be having Sky Realm as its counterpart.
However, as Fate may have it, Sheng Tian didn’t take the usual path of Body Cultivation. The Body Cultivation Technique he had was not a complete one. And more importantly, the way one cultivates Body is fundamentally different from the traditional methods.
The Orthodox Body Cultivator would start by the sprout of the stem. Then step, by step, the leaves bud corresponding to the transformations one’s body undergoes.
When the nine leaves are completed formed on the stem, it means that the Cultivator reached the perfection of the Mortal Realm.
Sheng Tian, however, was having his Physical Strength, Bodily Defense, Speed increase as he practiced the Cultivation Manual.
Neither did his muscles get explosive strength nor did his blood show any signs of transformation. There was no question of the illusory image of the stem on his heart. There was absolutely no such thing!
When Xiao Lian told him these things, Sheng Tian only wanted to find the Dragon God to punch his face. Wasn’t this too lousy of a gift for the Successor of a Dragon God?
Sure, this Cultivation Technique is providing strength which is very high than what the usual methods could. But that’s it! There are no great transformations in his body. And whatever change is happening in his body now, he knew that it would very likely stop before he even reached the peak of Mortal Realm. Inevitably, he would have no way of advancing in cultivating his body by then.
Then wouldn’t he have wasted his time cultivating this sh*tty technique?
At least, if he was told of the address he should look for the other half, he could have tried getting it by hook or crook. *Sigh*
Sheng Tian got rid of the ‘ifs’ and walked out fo the room to a small restaurant. There were not many customers coming to this restaurant. It was run by an Eccentric Old Man.
Sheng Tian was wearing his silver blue-shaded mask. His looks mesmerized every mortal. However, Cultivators are able to somewhat hold themselves back. And that is only when they are at or above Nascent Soul Realm. But still, it didn’t mean that they were unaffected by his charm. Everyone was affected albeit at different intensities.
His arrival to this restaurant triggered many of his female fans. They previously thought he ascended to heavens. When they saw him come to this restaurant, they only wanted to watch him. They knew that a celestial being like him could only be matched with a goddess. The mere mortals are not worthy!
Sheng Tian sat near the entrance and almost opposite to the most beautiful woman of his fans. He was doing this nearly every day.
The seats surrounding him were completely empty. He ordered his usual dishes and waited. Soon, a Young master with spiky hair appeared at the entrance. Almost instantly, his gaze fell onto the most beautiful woman in the customers. Gulping down his saliva, he strode in large steps.
The beautiful woman was around 20 years old. She had a pretty face, a nice bust, and a plump ass. She was the kind of pretty big sister for the mortals.
When the Young Master with his lackeys saw the woman, he licked his lips and decided to have a bite of her.
He stretched his hand and spoke ” Miss, could you honor me by having a meal with me?”
The Woman shook her head and continued eating. But the Man repeated the question again and again. The Beautiful Woman decided to ignore him.
All the customers in the restaurant, mainly the female felt extreme disgust towards him. Soon, one of the teenage girl with pig tails shouted “Can’t you see she is not interested in you? Why don’t you just leave?” After saying so, she shot a look at Sheng Tian.
Another Middle-Aged Woman with a square face also joined “Yeah. As a Young Man, how can you bully a lady in broad daylight?” she too looked at Sheng Tian
A chubby woman yelled “Yeah! Why are you still not scramming?” she did the same.
“Scram” “Pervert!” “Hentai~” “Leave her alone you beast!”
In an instant, like an erupted volcano, all the women in the restaurant who had a working mouth spewed insults on the Young Master and then peeked at Sheng Tian as if to see his reaction.
Sheng Tian suddenly turned around and smiled lightly at the ladies. The women who were shouting were stupified by his light smile and slight appreciation.
Meanwhile the Young Master who has his back facing Sheng Tian wasn’t able to see his smile and he was already thoroughly shocked by the reaction of the crowd.
What happened today? This is not his first time forcing a woman to bed. And every time he did, the crowd would not even bother themselves. Much less ****, even murder might be ignored. This is the Cultivation World. Things like this happen daily, so no one is really willing to stand up for the victims.
The Young Master didn’t know what happened to the crowd today, but he felt that if he gave up now, he would lose face in front of his two lackeys and also his reputation! He was not willing to turn a blind eye to this.
He glared at the customers as he yelled “Who dares to have guts to anger my 2nd Grade Family, huh?”
*Sss* Everyone instantly became silent. A 2nd-grade family is not something people like them could even dream of offending.
*Tap* *Tap* *Tap* incoherent footsteps broke the peace as the Old Man of the restaurant walked to Sheng Tian’s table and started serving the dishes without bothering with the Young Man who yelled like crazy.
The Young Master felt like he was being ignored even by an insignificant Old fellow. He snorted and kicked the Old Man on the butt.
*Bam* The Old Man fell on the ground with his butt high in the air for some cool air. Sheng Tian almost laughed out seeing the posture of the Old Man. The dishes all fell toward Sheng Tian. But before they even reached him, an invisible wall obstructed them as they all fell into the bowls perfectly and landed neatly on the table.
*Claps* Everyone clapped seeing his control. Poor Old Man was ignored by everyone.
The Young Master once again felt that it was an insult. As he saw the infinite charm radiated by the Young Man, he froze for a second, then he felt incomparably jealous. Those Sky blue eyes and every inch of that godly face,..Aaah! Why the fuck is he so handsome?!
Jealousy turned into rage as rage. He shouted at Sheng Tian “Who the hell do you think you are to wear a mask infront of this daddy? Pull it out and burn your face as compenstation. Otherwise, you will not move on your two legs!”
*Gasps* Everyone sucked in cold breath seeing the tyranny of the Young Master. Earlier, When he revealed his background, none of them dared to chide him anymore. And now, he is even telling the Celestial to burn his face? What to do? The women racked their heads as they tried to think of any plausible solution.
Finally, biting her lower lip, the Beautiful Woman whom the Young Master earlier asked for a meal stood up. If she was not present here, all of this wouldn’t have started. The Celestial wouldn’t be in a tight spot now. As for the Poor Old Man, let him lay on the ground, who cares anyway!
She took a step forward and came in front of the old man. Her gaze was fixed on Sheng Tian. She felt guilty. She walked towards him.
“Aaah” a pathetic sound reverberated across the hall as the Young Woman wearing footwear similar to heals with sharp tips stepped onto the buttocks of the Old Man. A stream of warm blood oozed out.
“Oop~” The Beautiful Woman snapped out of her daze and looked down. The Pant of Old Man which had numerous holes as windows had a tinge of red to it.
She hurriedly moved her foot and didn’t even bother saying anything as she walked forward. Everyone shifted their gazes from the Old Man to the Beautiful Woman instantly.
The Old Man’s breathing became ragged and he felt incomparably lost. Why? Just Why is he so unlucky?
He couldn’t bear it in anymore and shouted “Missy, I couldn’t see the panties under your skirt. Please step on me once again.” his voice was full of sincerity and pleading.
Everyone’s lips twitched as they heard the words. The Beautiful Woman hurriedly grabbed the hem of her long skirt as she vigilantly looked at the Old Pervert. Even the Arrogant Young Master was tongue-tied by this perverted person. Was he a masochist? Or does he have a heel fetish?
The Old Man quickly said in a righteous tone “Miss, It’s only a peek. So What’s wrong with that? You even touched me at inappropriate places and stole my chastity! You have to take responsibility!” his face was like he was incomparably wronged and full of anguish like a teenage girl who was raped.
Everyone had a sudden urge to kick the Old Pervert in the balls.
Stole your chastity? Why don’t you say she stole your heart? Responsibility? Do you think you are a **** victim?
The Young Woman was incomparably flustered by his words as she glared at him and shouted “Old Man, You are an elder to me. How can you say such vulgar words? Don’t you have any shame?”
Everyone nodded their heads including the Young Master.
The Old Man made a face that showed the determination of a man who goes against the world as he spoke “Missy, Age is but a number. It doesn’t matter in love. Even though I’m Older than you by a few years, I can still go for the full night! I am proud of my little bro! Hehe.
I didn’t think that you were someone who would judge others by their appearance! How narrow vision you have! We hide many wonderful things from everyone’s view but that doesn’t make them vanish!” Everyone covered their private parts as they heard the underlying vulgar meaning behind his words.
“You dirty minded rascals! These elegant words of mine don’t mean what you are thinking! I meant my heart which is hidden. Only by connecting it with yours can you see the true beauty of it. This is the truth. You can try if you don’t believe me.” he replied with his butt still sticking up in the air making a weird posture.
Older than you by a few years? Why not a few days then? We are dirty minded? Then how did you know what we were thinking?
The Beautiful Woman felt her cheeks burning up as she felt like this Old Geezer was even more terrifying than the Young Master.
She spoke angrily “Old Man, Words cannot be spoken lightly. Hold yourself or else you might be in big trouble.”
“Aii, this World doesn’t appreciate kindness.” he sighed with a sad face.
He slowly got up with his butt still shifted backward looking very comical. He looked into the Beautiful Woman’s eyes and spoke with full confidence “I am a man of honesty. I can die but I won’t lie. A few years ago, all the beautiful women of the continent fought each other to get a one night stand with me. But I vehemently refused and preserved my chastity. Who would have thought that on a day like this, a hungry woman like you would steal my precious thing? Aii~”
The beautiful woman had enough of this Old pervert’s play when she herself was feeling miserable due to the Young Master. She scolded without any mercy “A toad lusting after Swan’s meat! Do you think the people here are fools? Get lost or else I will throw you out.”
All the onlookers couldn’t help but nod in appreciation. Brave! Fierce~ Eloquent~
The Old Man looked like he instantly aged 10 years. He spoke in an aggrieved tone “Yan’er, my wife. If you want me to go away from you, you don’t have to degrade yourself to a toad.” he looked at her with sympathy.
“Even though you lusted after my meat” saying ‘meat’, he touched his buttocks and patted them, then looked at the woman “I am fine with a toad lusting after my meat if that toad is you. And you want to throw me out of our own ‘restaurant’? That’s fine with me.” he nodded.
*Thud* A kick landed on his buttocks again as the Old Man crashed on to the ground with his butt high in the air. It was once again a rare sight.
“Shut the f*ck up already! This Daddy doesn’t have the time to listen to your trash.” The Young Master kept his leg down and looked at the Old Man with disdain. Then he glanced at the beautiful Woman and at Sheng Tian. His meaning was clear, if you want him to be unharmed, you must sleep with me.
The Beautiful Woman bit her lip and walked step by step to the Young Master. When she was just three feet away, the Young Master already impatient, used his filthy hand to grab at the woman.
*Bam* A loud sound was heard as the Young Master was instantly blown away and hit a wall. The wall had cracks all over it as he coughed up three mouthfuls of blood.
An otherworldly Handsome Young Man was standing before the Beautiful Woman. *Hiss* Everyone in the crowd sucked in cold breath while probably unknown to everyone, the Old Man was watching him with interest.
