Jiu Ding Zhenren is a renowned figure within the Jiuhua Sect, not because of his immense power, but because he's infamous! He's notorious for anything but good deeds. However, because his ancestor was a prominent figure, no one has expelled him from the sect. He's also somewhat self-aware, avoiding mistakes of principle but committing numerous crimes. He's a despised and delinquent member of the Jiuhua Sect, a despised and despised entity from top to bottom.
"Come, come, come! Let's take a look! I, Jiuding Zhenren, have created another powerful martial art! I can reach the moon in the sky and catch turtles in the five oceans! Whoever wants to become my disciple, I will pass on everything I have learned in my life! But the apprenticeship gift must not be small. You only need 10,000 spirit stones to become my disciple! This opportunity is too good to pass up! Apprentices, please seize the opportunity!"
True Man Jiuding comes out to shout every day, but all the people he can deceive have already been deceived. Now even the novice disciples will not be easily fooled, and generally the novice disciples have connections, so no one will be easily fooled.
Long Junhai looked at the old man in front of him who looked like an immortal. Although he felt that this man was a bit like a swindler, the more such a person was, the more likely he was to have some unconventional things in his hands. Long Junhai felt that he needed to give it a try.
"What is the name of this immortal master? I am a new disciple and want to find a suitable master. I wonder what kind of magic you are good at?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
As soon as he saw the business coming, Jiu Ding Zhenren immediately said with a smile: "You have finally found the right person. I have learned a lot of magic in my life. There is absolutely nothing I don't know! What magic do you want to learn? I can teach you!"
"Do you know how to practice body refining?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
"What! Say it again!" Master Jiuding suddenly widened his eyes, as if he had heard something incredible!
"Body refining technique, I only learn this kind of magic, and I don't learn any other." Long Junhai continued.
"Found it! Finally found it! I, Jiuding Zhenren, have finally found my successor! Come, come, young man, do you know how many people I have deceived in my life? If not eight thousand, at least ten thousand! But no matter how many people I have deceived, there is one thing I have not lied about. I really know a peerless magic skill! It's a pity that it is a body refining technique, which is very difficult to practice. Even I myself have not practiced it to a very high level, so those disciples are even more dismissive! But I see that you are extremely talented and have amazing bones. More importantly, you are willing to learn the body refining technique. It is just a matter of time before you can carry forward my ancestral skills!"
Master Jiuding wanted to cry when he said these things, because they were all the truth. If anyone else heard them, they would definitely think he was fooling people, but this time he dared to swear to the heavens that every word he said was true!
Hearing this, Long Junhai smiled and said, "I can take you as my teacher, but the prerequisite is that your body refining skills must be really powerful!"
"Don't worry! There's no physical training technique in heaven or on earth that can surpass mine! My ancestor founded the Jiuhua Sect with this technique, but for tens of thousands of years, no one has been able to inherit it. Now, I'm the only one in the Jiuhua Sect who still persists in practicing the physical training technique!"
True Man Jiuding did not ask Long Junhai what gift he wanted as his apprenticeship. He took him directly to his residence and took out a dusty wooden box from under the bed. It looked like it had been covered in dust for many years.
"Here lies the Jiuhua Sect's true and unique martial arts technique, the Nine Cauldrons Sutra! These are the enlarged and printed illustrations of the unique martial arts technique by my ancestors. This is the only copy left in the entire Jiuhua Sect!"
True Man Jiuding took out nine square stone bricks from the box. Lifelike pictures were printed on them, and there were some small words next to them, which were the secrets to practicing this body-refining technique.
"Look, this Nine Cauldrons Sutra is very powerful, right? The first realm is to boil a person in a cauldron for forty-nine days. In this way, you can become invincible in the Qi training realm, with a body of copper skin and iron bones, and be invulnerable to swords and spears. No matter how powerful other people's magic power is, they can't break your defense!" said the True Man of Nine Cauldrons happily.
Long Junhai looked at the picture. It was indeed a person sitting in a big pot with three flames boiling underneath. The accompanying text was something Long Junhai had never seen before. However, he could guess the meaning a little bit, because he had learned thousands of different characters in his mind, and this kind of characters was a bit like a combination of oracle bone script and cuneiform. He guessed that the general meaning was to burn oneself with three fires, but he was not sure what it meant exactly.
The second picture is even more exaggerated. It shows a person swallowing a big pot into his stomach, and the words on the stone bricks have begun to become blurred.
The third picture shows a person holding a big pot above his head, and the text accompanying the picture is missing a lot, making it impossible to tell what the specific meaning is.
The pattern after the third picture began to become incomplete, and there was nothing at the end. Only a trace similar to a big pot could be seen, without even a single word.
Long Junhai frowned. The martial arts described by this set of patterns must be very powerful, because the extraordinary nature of the martial arts can be seen just from the patterns, but it is definitely not like what Master Jiuding said, which is to cook himself.
"So? Are you very powerful? Become my disciple! I won't tell you the apprenticeship ceremony!" said Master Jiuding excitedly.
Long Junhai bowed to Jiuding Zhenren and said, "Master, this technique is indeed not simple, but most of it is incomplete. Besides this unique technique, do you have any other techniques?"
"Yes! Of course! And there are quite a few! The Jiuding Sect is so large, I have collected all the body-refining techniques from the entire sect. You can learn whatever you want! From today on, you are my, Jiuding Zhenren's, closed disciple, and only disciple! I will train you to become a peerless master!"
True Man Jiuding was speaking from the heart. He had been a coward in Jiuhua Sect his entire life and was about to run out of life. He had nothing worth bragging about in his life. Before he died, he was able to accept someone who was willing to practice body refining techniques. He was already very grateful to heaven!
Long Junhai found many body-refining techniques in Jiuding Zhenren's room. He started with the introductory ones, and after reading all of them, he began to carefully study the pros and cons of them. He found that there was no absolutely fixed way to practice body-refining techniques, but no matter which one, as long as it could be practiced to the extreme, it could reach a very high level!
Long Junhai chose the most practical and powerful body refining technique, called the Nine Cauldrons Golden Body. It was said to be a part of the knowledge gained from the Nine Cauldrons Sutra, but its actual power could not be compared with that of the Nine Cauldrons Sutra. The two were not on the same level at all.
