"You have embarked on the path of ninefold shackles, but do you know who among the human race has broken free of these shackles to the extreme!"

The warlord lowered his voice. He already knew about Jiang Yuan's situation. It was because Jiang Yuan also practiced ancient martial arts that he changed his mind. Otherwise, he had indeed considered possessing Jiang Yuan's body.

This world needs a savior. Even if it means becoming a demon! Even if it means killing countless people!

"Could it be you?" Jiang Yuan had heard Zhong Litong mention this before, and his impression was that it was Chi You, the God of War.

"That's right, it's me! The reason why the human race can rank among the top ten of the three thousand races is because of these nine shackles, and I have opened the nine shackles to their extreme! That is what you have to choose now, the Holy Body!" The war lord's eyes were burning with passion. That was his peak. If it weren't for a slight flaw, the outcome of the last battlefield might have been different.

"Alright, I choose to cultivate the Innate Sacred Body!" Jiang Yuan was betting everything. He was never one to make decisions easily, but today, he felt an impulse.

"Hahaha, hahahaha!"

The warlord threw his head back and laughed loudly. After laughing, he said with a mad expression, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

"Lord of the Army, what should I do?" Now that Jiang Yuan has made a decision, he will do it perfectly.

"Don't rush, there are some things I still need to explain, otherwise I won't have the chance to explain them to you after you achieve the Innate Sacred Body!" The War Lord suddenly smiled.

"You? What bad end will you suffer?" Jiang Yuan wasn't stupid; he naturally understood the meaning behind the warlord's words.

The Lord of War appeared quite nonchalant. He said calmly, "Achieving the status of a Primordial Saint would exhaust the energy of the entire Lord of War's Tomb. And I am dependent on the Lord of War's Tomb. If the skin is gone, where will the hair attach? How can I live!"

Jiang Yuan was unaware that the Lord of War was hiding something from him: to achieve the Innate Sacred Body, one must have an Acquired Sacred Body as a foundation. In other words, the Lord of War had to completely burn his true soul to become nourishment for Jiang Yuan's Innate Sacred Body.

Only in that way can the innate sacred body possibly appear.

"Lord Bingzhu!" Jiang Yuan felt a strange emotion welling up inside him. He had never imagined that a stranger would make such a sacrifice.

"Needless to say, everything I've done is for the continuation of human civilization! Besides, I'm already dead. I've been clinging to life until now for this very moment. To be able to sacrifice myself for my beliefs is my honor!" The warlord's face was filled with longing, as if recalling the glorious days of the battlefield where gods fell.

"Lord Bing, please tell me what you need to say, and I will do my utmost!" Jiang Yuan said firmly.

The Lord of War nodded and said, "Once you achieve the Innate Sacred Body, each of your shackles will be sealed with an eternal seal. That is to say, under the binding of the eternal seal, each of your shackles can only exert one-tenth of its power! Of course, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Although each of your shackles is restricted, the upper limit of the shackles is unlocked. That is to say, the upper limit of each shackle is theoretically infinite."

"One-tenth, theoretically infinite!" Jiang Yuan's lips twitched. Why did this sound so misleading?

"Let me explain my situation. I have a postnatal Holy Body. Back then, my Eternal Seal sealed one-fifth of my power. The shackles' upper limit is ninety-nine times. If I can reach the shackles' upper limit, then I'll be twenty times stronger than others for no reason! Moreover, if the Eternal Seal is fully opened, that would be a qualitative change. Back then, when I broke through the hurdle of becoming a demigod, my strength increased by nearly three hundred times!" The War Lord said calmly, as if three hundred times was nothing to him.

Jiang Yuan said with a wry smile, "This is truly a long and arduous task!"

"You're taking it too lightly!" The War Lord said with a hint of amusement. He continued, "Because of the existence of the Eternal Seal, even if you unlock all nine shackles, you'll still need to start over! As for how many times you'll need to start over, to be honest, I don't know the limits of the Innate Sacred Body!"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

"Furthermore, the Innate Sacred Body transcends the rules, and even the Eye of All Heavens within you cannot detect it. Therefore, you must be careful when using it, and never let the battlefield rules catch you! I even suggest that you should not use it!" The War Lord could not make an accurate assessment of the Innate Sacred Body, but to be on the safe side, he preferred that Jiang Yuan not use it.

"The ____ does not work……"

Jiang Yuan was completely devastated. Putting aside the fact that your Innate Sacred Body has compressed 90% of my ancient martial arts power and I can't even use it, are you sure this is the awesome Innate Sacred Body you're talking about? Or is it just Innate Impotence?

"At the same time, after cultivating the Innate Sacred Body, you also need to cultivate the Divine Body, which is the path to godhood on the battlefield!" The War Lord dropped another bombshell.

Jiang Yuan: "..."

"You must have noticed when you were absorbing the power of divine blood here, right? Your demigod body has been activated. That was a gift I specially prepared for you, to help you conceal part of the power of your innate holy body! But you must remember, you must not break through to the demigod body. That was just to cover for you, because once you break through to the demigod body, you are very likely to be dragged out by the people behind the battlefield. You can imagine what will happen!" The War Lord spoke extremely seriously in a very calm tone.

Jiang Yuan: "..."

Today was probably the day Jiang Yuan was the most silent. He felt as if he was a gamer who stayed at home and didn't care about current events one second, and the next second he received a notice to take over as CEO of a top 100 company. The difference was huge.

"I thought I activated it with my own abilities!" Jiang Yuan couldn't hide his embarrassment.

"You don't need to give up on the path to godhood, just be careful of the masterminds behind the scenes on the battlefield! Anyway, you need to know that if you follow the path that others have planned for you, you will not reach the destination you want!" The Lord of War did not completely deny the path to godhood, because facts have proved that it is the fastest and most effective path, but the risks involved are too great.
