Chapter 191: Pure Yang Feather Martial Body
Xia Yushan looked appreciatively at Lushu’s martial body. Even without Lushu doing anything, there was a faint golden light enveloping his body. The light gave off a warmth that was neither too hot nor too cold, perfect like spring sunshine. Furthermore, Xia Yushan could see faint apparitions of golden feathers appearing randomly.
“Focus, your strength suddenly increased too much, and you can’t control it. Focus on mastering your newfound powers. I’ll guard you.” Xia Yushan said.
Lushu gave Xia Yushan a grateful smile before closing his eyes and started meditating. Once in a while, yang qi would pulse from his body. Other times, the golden light disappeared as if Lushu’s new martial body was that of a mortal’s.
Xia Yushan didn’t stand by idly either. He had long learned the golden crow method from Lushu. The eldest senior disciple of Buzhou Immortal Sect had marveled at the profundities of the method. For a yokel of the Demon Cage Realm to create such a method was truly a miracle. If that deceased acupoint opening master had been born in the Huang Realm, he would have been an immortal seed, a disciple with high chances of entering the immortal realm, and heavily favored by whatever force he joined.
A bright yellow orb appeared in Xia Yushan’s hand, holding a considerable resemblance to the molten gold orb within Lushu’s dantian. As time passed, the golden sphere began to glimmer in and out of existence until Xia Yushan could no longer maintain and disappeared in a puff. With a frown, Xia Yushan waved his hand, and a bloodless demon corpse disappeared into his spatial ring.
This wasn’t Xia Yushan’s first attempt, and nor would it be his last. Ever since he learned about the golden crow method, he had been trying to replicate the blood essence conglomeration effect. By sacrificing numerous corpses, he could create the blood of a pure golden crow or at least something similar. At least in theory.
Xia Yushan took a glance at Lushu. Using his spiritual senses, he could sense that the bloodline within Lushu’s bloodline was even higher than the Unity Realm level demon that had attacked them. If this method was known to the golden crow clan, would they seal it or use it?
At its core, the method used the corpses of numerous demons to complete the bloodline of one being. Would the Golden Crow Clan be willing to afford such a price?
Even in the Huang Realm, if such a technique were turned on humans, it would have been labeled as a devilish technique.
Shaking his head, Xia Yushan attempted to replicate the golden crow clan’s method once more. However, even when Lushu fully mastered the power of his new martial body, Xia Yushan had not succeeded once.
When Lushu opened his eyes and stood up, the faint golden glow around his body became denser and illusionary feathers coiled around him. This all lasted for a moment before it all disappeared under his skin until only a faint golden glow remained, but even then, the glow was so dim that it was practically impossible to discern with the naked eye.
“Congratulations on entering the Acupoint Opening Realm and attaining a martial body. Did that senior have a name for it?” Xia Yushan asked, a slight smile on his face as he looked at Lushu.
“No, the senior just called it a Golden Crow Demon Body, but I feel like there is still a difference between a real golden crow and my body,” Lushu replied and observed Xia Yushan’s expression and saw that it was still the same. Even when he entered the Acupoint Opening Realm, Xia Yushan still looked at him the same way.
The look in his eyes has not changed. He doesn’t take me seriously at all. Lushu thought. He smiled self-depreciatingly with a hint of unwillingness. Although Lushu felt that his strength had reached a whole new height, but compared to this Grandmaster Xia, he was still only a slightly bigger bug now. If Grandmaster Xia weren’t interested in the golden crow method, he would have probably ignored me, right?
“You’re right,” Xia Yushan agreed. “How about I give it a name?”
Lushu showed a surprised expression. “Please, Senior.”
“Pure Yang Feather Martial Body.” Xia Yushan said.
“Pure Yang Feather Martial Body,” Lushu repeated the name and felt it was indeed fitting. Furthermore, the senior who created this method had his martial body, the Sky Feather Demon Body, so there was a sense of connection between him and that senior.
After naming Lushu’s martial body, the golden crow method was also renamed the Pure Yang Feather Manual.
Lushu wanted to return to Fan City to celebrate with his wife, Ziye, and his good friends, but Xia Yushan had different thoughts. Xia Yushan forcibly brought Lushu around to hunt for Nascent Soul Realm level demons with the golden crow bloodline. To this point, he even brought out several corpses of the rank that he had collected earlier.
Lushu felt that Xia Yushan was treating him too good and tried to refuse, but Xia Yushan wouldn’t accept no for an answer.
“Ziye, your strength increased so much?” Lushu couldn’t hold his shock. He was happy yet puzzled.
Ziye wiped her tears and explained. “It’s not just me, but almost everyone in Fan City. Grandmaster Xi is amazing. He gave us an improved version of the method from before, and almost everyone’s strength drastically increased because of the dense qi here.”
“Grandmaster Xi is also here? I wonder how he compares to Heaven’s Will Grandmaster.” Lushu said, more to himself than others. He had seen Tianyi’s might, so he found it hard to imagine someone even more powerful even though he knew it was possible.
Ziye began to giggle at Lushu. “Grandmaster Xi is Heaven’s Will.”
“What?” Lushu said in shock.
“Tianyi is Grandmaster Xi’s given name,” Ziye explained. She, too, had been shocked to find out that Heaven’s Will Grandmaster was actually the same person as Grandmaster XI, but upon thinking it deeper, she didn’t find it strange. Grandmaster Xi was powerful enough to bend nature to his will. Making a few floating islands was within the scope of his powers.
This was a classic case of outsiders not comprehending the profundities of an expert’s actions.
After reuniting with Ziye, Lushu met with Zhangya and the rest of his good brothers. Most of them had chosen to stay, and to Lushu’s shock and joy, many had entered the Acupoint Opening Realm.
The total number of acupoint opening masters had reached over thirty in Fan City, a terrifying degree for humans. Within this one city, they could sweep and conquer other human cities, but they still paled in comparison to the demons.
“I’d thought I was good for reaching the Acupoint Opening Realm, but it turns out so many of you also reached it. Maybe I should have switched to Grandmaster Xi’s method.” Lushu joked.
“Stop joking. Senior Azure Leaf and others say that your golden crow method is not inferior to Grandmaster Xi’s method, just more difficult.” Zhangya returned. “You were quite lucky. Those stubborn fellas who insisted on not switching are still in the Body Transformation Realm. I can still see them looking at us in envy. A few of those stubborn bastards even lowered their heads and switched, hahaha!”
Lushu knew how some of the geniuses of Fan City disliked Grandmaster Xi’s method and disdained those who switched. Although Zhangya appeared unconcerned, Lushu knew that Zhangya wanted to beat those who mocked Grandmaster Xi up. However, any fighting was prohibited as disunity would compromise the human’s ability to fight the demons. At most, only a few sour words would be thrown back and forth.
Lushu also felt admiration towards Grandmaster Xi, but he also felt like Zhangya and the other two, who had been given pointers by Tianyi, were total fanatics.
“Right, I almost forgot about it.” Zhangya slapped his forehead and hung his arm around Lushu’s shoulder. He searched his robes and brought a thing metallic plate that could be comfortably held in his hand. “Hurry and register so you can receive a Xiyi Talisman!”
“What’s a Xiyi Talisman?” Lushu had heard of talismans before, but they weren’t very popular and weak. Even a talisman crafted by an acupoint only had the strength of a mid body transformation acolyte.
Zhangya smiled triumphantly and explained to Lushu. When Lushu finished listening, he sighed in amazement. Using this tool, even a mortal could unleash an attack at the Nascent Soul Realm, making them even more powerful than the Demon Cage Realm’s most powerful experts.
The Xiyi Talismans also had a communication feature, but Lushu didn’t place much value on the utility. In his eyes, it was just something extra added with little to no meaning.
Despite this, Lushu once again understood the difference between the immortals and the people of the Demon Cage Realm. He quickly registered and received a Xiyi Talisman, and after learning how to use it, immediately went into secluded cultivation.
Compared to using a tool given by others, Lushu preferred relying on his own strength, but he wouldn’t discount the usefulness of the Xiyi Talisman.

“Senior Brother Xia, I entrust everything to you,” Tianyi said and immediately rushed away, seemingly busy with something.
Xia Yushan just stood there, blinking. Tianyi seemed to be on the verge of tears and roughly shook his hands before leaving. He looked around to see the elite disciples of various sects staring at him.
One of them coughed and said. “Cough, Daoist Xia, what should our plan be to resist the demons? We already made some preliminary tactics. How about reviewing them?”
