Volume 1 Chapter 19: Physiques

"So it's a world where everyone thought they're gods, is that what you're saying?"

"Yes. And worse, they have a superior complex towards cultivators who cultivate his way up to the Pseudo Immortal realm."

It's utterly ridiculous. Fang Zhaoge couldn't help but be speechless. Is there an even bigger idiot than those guys? If there is, he swore he'd kill them even if their thousandth generation of ancestors begged him not to.

People who are so idiotic are so infuriating. So infuriating in fact, you couldn't help but want to slap them.

Aren't these people who cultivate up to the Pseudo Immortal realm more impressive? They probably struggled countless times and became legends long ago before those so-called gods were even born. What the f*ck are you looking down on them for? Can you achieve what he had achieved if you were in his shoes?

People who are born from 'nobility' and 'bloodlines' sometimes are idiotic to the extreme. They're just lucky they became the fruit their immortal parents bore when their immortal parents cooked in their room…

Fang Zhaoge took a deep breath to control his emotions. Relax, he'll eventually be invincible, and so, he could definitely slap these kinds of people at will.

As for their ancestors, what the f*ck you're here for? I'm already invincible, what the hell can you do? Apologizing on behalf of your idiotic descendants? Are you worthy?

"Alright Sister Zhi, I think I get it. But can you tell me the realms above the King God realm?"

As they conserved, a small, cold figure suddenly sat beside Fang Zhaoge and asked quickly, "I'm also curious. Senior Sister, can I join in?"

Fang Zhaoge just glanced at her and let Senior Zhi decide. Although he likes the company of the cold princess, what's the point if a conflict arose from this? Wouldn't he be forced to be the middle line? Wouldn't he waste a lot of time doing that?

"It's fine, Junior Meng. You have the same name as me, so maybe we're fated."

Li Mengzhi giggled as she pat Princess Shinmeng's head. The latter also smiled, nodding vigorously. Looking at this, Fang Zhaoge swept the nonexistent sweats and sighed in relief. As expected of the old young lady who has 512 years of experience!

"So, there are also ten cultivation realms above the mortal and semi-immortal realms. The first half is what we call immortal realms, while the latter half is called transformation realms. However, I'll only explain the immortal realms since you guys were too weak to know the latter half."

"How about you? You're weaker than me."

Fang Zhaoge complained, but Li Mengzhi just smiled smugly. Having a godly mother is just too good!

"Anyway, for the immortal realms, there are 5 realms. Pseudo Immortal, Pure Immortal, Earth Immortal, Sky Immortal, Heaven Immortal and God Immortal!"

"Huh? There are 6?"

Princess Shinmeng tilted her head perplexedly. Li Mengzhi just smirked and further explained.

"Earth and Sky Immortal were actually considered as a realm called the World Immortal realm, but because many people stuck in the Earth Immortal realm and felt like the difference of the first half and the latter half of the World Immortal realm was too vast, at last, the upper echelon decides to change it to two sections. But purely, they're still counted as a realm."

Li Mengzhi explained lots of things rather intricately, as if she already experienced it all. Turns out, Immortal realm is all about circulating divinity and integrated it with qi, creating a force that was required to attain the transformation realms. It was still unclear and extremely confusing, hence Li Mengzhi stopped it there and turned to the spatial ring.

Seeing her moves, Fang Zhaoge jumped and urged her, "Open it, Senior Zhi."

Wordlessly, she moved her slender fingers and a hint of divinity was emitted. Not to mention Princess Shinmeng, even Fang Zhaoge felt a little bit of pressure. In an analogy, he felt like there's a very small ant on his head…

But it's different from Princess Shinmeng. Just attaining the Void Refinement realm with no remarkable combat technique, even with her extreme foundation, she could only contend against a normal God expert. It was already impressive, but Li Mengzhi also attained extreme foundation!

Thankfully, it didn't even take a second. Soon, many wondrous items fell to the ground. Li Mengzhi stumbled after many items came out, and she couldn't help but be dazed.

Fang Zhaoge and Princess Shinmeng looked around the vicinity, looking as confused as donkeys. What are these dazzling items?

"Sister Zhi?"

"So he's actually an esteemed persecutor!"

They became even more confused. Senior Zhi, even if you spout these things out of nowhere, at least explain it.

After a momentary daze, Li Mengzhi opened her eyes and picked up certain items from the ground. She also glanced at Fang Zhaoge and had an urge to pinch his face.

However, she still explained a little, "Persecutors are Immortals who are responsible for overlooking the mission. Whether it's the requester, the doer, the reward, the coordination, news… they were all circulated to the forces from the Persecutors. So you could imagine the position they had for the forces to trust them with such a crucial task!"

"So impressive?"

Fang Zhaoge blinked. So that man who rolled away miserably was a Persecutor? His mouth twitched. Turns out, he already surpassed such a being…

"Senior Brother Ge, you're so impressive! To catch an Immortal at that level, that Immortal must not be weak!"

Princess Shinmeng's cold eyes shined like glittering stars as she looked at him with admiration. Li Mengzhi did not refute it, she just sighed at the sheer ridiculousness of her Junior Brother.

After a few bickerings with the two peerless beauties, Fang Zhaoge asked Li Mengzhi expectantly, "So Sister Zhi, is there any treasure in the ring? A sword maybe?"

As for those herbs, Fang Zhaoge didn't really care. At most, they would increase his talents and his strength. His talent was simply overbearing, while his strength was inconceivable, so the effect would be nonexistent. It's better for those guys like Lu Shi and Lin Ming to take them.

Li Mengzhi wordlessly brings out an intricate-looking sword. It looks simple, but the domineering aura was anything but simple! There's also an additional red, blazing pill on her hand.

"An Immortal-grade sword and a pill to attain a Blazing Physique. They're not bad. The expert would probably give the pill to his descendant. Unfortunately for him, you snatched it."

"Immortal-grade sword? Blazing Physique? Senior Zhi, just what are those?"

Li Mengzhi is indeed a patient woman. She once again explained things he hadn't known yet. Princess Shinmeng also joined, her cold eyes shining with curiosity and interest.

"Treasures, spiritual weapons, whatever you called them, are crucial amongst the Immortals. Because with divinity, they could forge weapons! Weapons worthy enough for Immortals! The divinity within the semi-immortal realms was too little, hence in the mortal world, the best weapon is only a weapon created from the mountains. Those weapons cannot circulate divinity and qi, so in most cases, they become a hindrance."

"But weapons forged from Immortals are different. They could create a small system of circulation in the weapons by sculpturing them so intricately with divinity and became a major support for the Immortals! Junior Brother, you're so lucky, you actually got an Immortal-grade sword, which was simply the best in the immortal realms! That person might be more formidable than we thought."

"Not to mention the pill! It could actually awaken the Blazing Physique, the top 1000 physique amongst the 3000 physiques! Don't underestimate its position, because even the 3000th physique could overwhelm an opponent in the same level!"

"There's a saying, the top 3000 physiques could increase talents and combat strength by 5x, The top 1000 by 10x, the top 500 by 20x, the top 200 by 40x, the top 100 by 80x, the top 50 by 160x, the top 20 by 320x, the top 10 by 640x, the top 5 by 1280x, the top 3 by 2560x, and the number one physique could increase it by over 10000x!!!"

Fang Zhaoge almost stumbled. 10000x? Is there a better way to increase talents and strength than the Underdog Myth quality? Does that mean someone was even more monstrous than him?

Knowing this, Fang Zhaoge planned to become even more cautious in the future. Even with his ridiculous foundation, he must not be arrogant! At least, do not be mindlessly arrogant!

"The first rank in the 3000 physique was known as the Heavenly Dao Physique, the physique that resonated with the Heavenly Dao itself!"

That's a lot of information to take in!

Fang Zhaoge asked a lot of questions regarding her explanation, and after a few hours, he gained a clear understanding.

So physique is a constitution given by the Heavens, which is why those who have physiques are called Heaven's Chosen. When he heard this, Fang Zhaoge twitched. Such a presumptuous name.

While the 11th to 3000th physique's name is relatively normal, things started to get exaggerated once he entered the top 10.

Just look at the name of the 6th physique, the Devouring Yin-Yang Physique. Even Li Mengzhi's face became strange when she told them. Fang Zhaoge had a thought, does that mean the posesser could cook with both tools?

Princess Shinmeng was the only one who thought of it as a powerful, legendary constitution, and her eyes widened. Li Mengzhi and Fang Zhaoge let her be. She doesn't know, she doesn't know…

As for weapons, there are only 4 grades in the Immortal World, surprisingly, as the weapons below the Immortal standard were not acknowledged. Divine, Immortal, Pseudo Celestial and Half-Celestial.

Fang Zhaoge has no clue what celestial even means. Li Mengzhi also has no clue, she just heard her mother mention it by chance…

"Alright Sister Zhi, I'll digest the pill first. Afterwards, I'll be going to the Dark Forest."

Li Mengzhi nodded. However, Princess Shinmeng, despite knowing his fighting prowess, was still worried. She tugged his sleeve and said,

"Be careful, Senior Brother. The Dark Forest was known for its phantoms and ghosts. Especially the notorious King of Ghosts. You must not be careless!"

The Heavenly Emperor also told him this. The first time he heard it, Fang Zhaoge was quite intimidated. However, the Heavenly Emperor told him that ghosts and phantoms couldn't do anything to him if he did not have a Nascent Soul, since they only target and feast those who have Nascent Souls.

Such a relief! Fang Zhaoge looked at the worried Princess Shinmeng and couldn't help but smile. He pats her hand gently.

"I'm too powerful, so I don't think those guys could beat me…"

"Although he's arrogant, he's telling the truth. Junior Meng, don't worry. Especially since he has an Immortal-grade sword!"

Li Mengzhi assured her with a smirk. However, she transmitted her worry through eye contact, and Fang Zhaoge wordlessly nodded.

Thus, his figure disappeared.

In one of the Forbidden Zones, the Dark Haven, a staggering figure with a pair of menacing horns and jagged teeth stumbled in the dark. His towering figure moves at lighting speed as he repels a dark, demonic beast.

Upon a closer look, the figure has purple, blinding eyes, which scanned the surrounding vicinity. However, the eyes actually contained intelligence and emotions!

"Lin Ming, do not go overboard. We have to go back to the sect!"

Besides the towering figure, a simple, amicable white-robed middle-aged man sat on the collapsed log as he enjoyed a bowl of wine with a whisp. The staggering figure was actually Lin Ming!

"I understand, Senior Huang! Do not worry. I understand my limits quite well!"

"That's good."

Soon, the amicable middle-aged man rose from his seat and sighed in amazement. His eyes, as if penetrate all, noticed a figure blowing his surrounding as he moves in nigh-light speed!

"Lin Ming is already so impressive, he could probably contend against those Heaven's Chosen Ones. But there's always a cloud above the cloud! I did not expect to witness a being who could contend against Immortals as a mere mortal!"

"Heh, I'm looking forward to see your domination in the Immortal World! Tsk, that Li Tianwen is truly lucky!"

Soon, the repelled dark beast returned. However, this time, Lin Ming reappeared behind its back and delivered a powerful strike! The dark beast howled miserably, but Lin Ming did not give it any leeway.

After a few minutes of a one-sided beating, the beast collapsed. Lin Ming simply kneeled beside it and dissected its stomach, revealing a purple, neon core.

"A core of a Divine Hall beast is probably enough to increase the Tempering of the Ravenous to stage 5. But you still have a long way to go, Lin Ming."

"I understand, Senior!"

"Let's go back after this."

"Yes!"

Thus, the duo enjoyed the roasted meat of the dark beast as the figure who moved in nigh-light speed arrive before a humongous forest with its 1 km tall menacing, towering trees!
