Chapter 120 The Overlord Body-Refining Formula(Part One)

After collecting all the Space Rings that were spread around the area, Austin's roaming gaze finally

stopped as they landed on a giant metal bucket right in the middle of an open space from which the

medicinal vapor was rising.

Somehow, everyone had managed to deliberately avoid hitting the bucket even when they were

furious. Most probably because they all knew that the medicinal liquid in it was priceless and precious

for everyone.

"Overlord Body-Refining Formula... ... …"

Austin recalled what Lois had told him earlier, "Scott extracted the sap of vigor trees in order to

cultivate the Overlord Body-Refining Formula." It was precious and rare!

According to Lois, the Overlord Body-Refining Formula, an inheritance she had received from her

ancestors had later turned out to be a grade seven formula.

Grade Seven formulae were a rare occurrence around the entire globe. They were invaluable,

extraordinarily difficult to find, and difficult to process even for the great sects.

The Overlord Body-Refining Formula was extremely powerful as well as remarkably useful for body

cultivation. However, the preciousness of formulae related to practicing vital energy increased from the

well-known fact that the vital energy level of a cultivator reflected his/her true powers. In fact, it was the

sole way of measuring it.

Thus Body cultivation, which allowed a cultivator to improve body constitution and strengthen vitality,

was usually regarded as an auxiliary and complement effort to vital energy practice.

Giving too much time and effort to one's physical practice was often seen as catching the shadow and

losing the substance in the chase.

Therefore, physical-practicing formulae were typically not welcomed by cultivators and they avoided,

more so if the formula was not very expensive.

But, even if that were true, the grade of this particular formula alone was high enough to attract several

cultivators.

Scott was one of them, he unintentionally heard the position of Overlord Body-Refining Formula and

poisoned Gilbert to death to steal it. Then he rushed to this vigor tree forest and extracted sap to

cultivate this grade seven formula.

'Skill is no burden. Since it's a grade seven formula, it must have its forte.'

Austin's mind started to activate and he pondered over how to use the formula.

Then he took out Scott's Space Ring and employed his spiritual sense to search it for some time. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Suddenly, something happened inside the ring and out of nowhere, a slender slip made of pure green

jade appeared in his hands.

The crystal clear jade slip, sparkling with a soft light, was carved with the words "Overlord Body-

Refining Formula".

Yup, that was it. The entire formula was recorded on a slip of jade instead of paper. Much more

versatile and long-lasting.

Since Austin had a bit of cursory information about formulae recorded on jade slips, he knew well how

to use one. The idea was to place one's forehead against the slip. As soon as he did that, a white light

emanated out of the jade slip and a large amount of mysterious and wonderful information about the

formula entered into his head through it.

It contained all the information about the Overlord Body Refining Formula and it was, to say the least,

terrible!

"God!"

When he read it and became acquainted with the practicing method of the formula, Austin couldn't help

taking a deep breath and gasping.

"This is ridiculous!"

It turned out that to support the cultivation of this formula, a lot of spirit medicines were needed right

from the beginning. What's more, when it came to higher level practice of the formula, which was

power beyond Austin's imagination, some extremely precious natural materials were also required for

assistance.

If an ordinary cultivator without sufficient spirit medicines and natural materials would have found the

formula, he wouldn't have been able to use it even with the jade slip since the first level too was

remarkably expensive and tough.

Austin couldn't help letting out a deep sigh, 'I had heard that the cultivation process of almost all Body-

Refining Formulae were associated with a lot of consumption and extravagance. It was told to me

many years ago, but now I see that it was right.'

At the very beginning of the slip, the guiding principles stated that "The body is born to be fragile, it's

not easy to be as adamantine as the diamond. You must borrow spirits from rare natural materials to

help refine your body. Not everyone has the powers and the resources to do so. Be warned."

If one were to look at the explanation, it stated that the Overlord Body-Refining Formula mainly worked

through consuming spirits accumulated in spirit medicines and natural materials. This let the cultivator

refine his body, make it as clean as new, but unfathomably strong.

'It's just a way of cultivation by consuming lots of resources!'

A wry smile settled on his face.

After the guiding principle, there was also an introduction about the powers of the Overlord Body-

Refining Formula in the slip.

The whole formula had been divided into five levels.

In the first level, the formula was supposed to enhance, clean, and refine the cultivator's skin and

bones. With physical fitness transformed, it was said that a single punch could have landed a 1000

pounds of force. That didn't come cheap though, and cost the equivalent of 5 hundred thousand vital

energy crystals.

In the second level, skin and bones would become extremely hard and the body would become as hard

as iron. The formula claimed that a second level cultivator could have resisted an all-out attack by a

cultivator of Energy Gathering Realm. Also, his or her single punch would have been able to land 5,

000 pounds of force. The cost doubled this time and reached a million vital energy crystals.

The third level would have fully transformed the skeleton and the veins. This would let them resist the

invasion of most toxins. The body would have developed a slight resistance to fire and water, which

wouldn't be able to damage you easily. It would also be able to resist an all-out attack by a primary

cultivator of Earth Realm. The punch strength was increased to eight thousand now. But the cost tripled

now and reached 3 million vital energy crystals.

The fourth level was ridiculously strong. It would make the skin be bright and jade-like, and one's flesh

and blood would no longer be mortal. It would have made you invulnerable against mortal weapons,

and you would have been insusceptible to fire and water. An all-out attack by a senior cultivator of

Earth Realm wouldn't have damaged you and your single punch could have landed 10, 000 pounds of

force. The fourth level cost the equivalent of about 5 million vital energy crystals.

In the fifth level, the cultivation of Overlord Body-Refining Formula came to the Major Achievement

Stage. This was the most powerful one and was beyond anyone's imagination. At the fifth stage, the

flesh body would have been able to resist an all-out hit by a secondary cultivator of Mysterious Realm.

A single punch would have landed 15, 000 pounds of force, but the price was equally ridiculous. It cost

the equivalent of about 10 million vital energy crystals!

"OH MY GOD!"

Austin's heart beat wildly on reading the thing, and he exclaimed 'oh my god' out loud, thinking, 'If

cultivated to Major Achievement Stage, the flesh body would actually be able to resist an all-out attack

by a secondary cultivator of Mysterious Realm. That's horrific and fascinating at the same time.'

There was only one Mysterious Realm cultivator in Sun Sect—the Leader, Theon.

So, in other words, if someone could actually cultivate the Overlord Body-Refining Formula to the fifth

stage, his strength would have been comparable to Theon. And that was only about his physical

strength. One's spiritual strength could always be increased.
