In this vast martial world, the cultivation realms were divided into two categories from low to high: Body Tempering, Qi Refinement, Bone Tempering, Houtian tenth stage, Xiantian tenth stage, Profound Finger Grandmaster, Heavenly Phenomenon Grandmaster…
If an ordinary person wanted to cultivate and step into the Postnatal realm, they would have to go through body tempering, qi refining, and bone tempering.
At the same time, these three realms were also places that every cultivator had to pay great attention to.
As the saying goes, tall buildings rise from the ground. It was the same for cultivation. If one's foundation was not stable, no matter how high one's cultivation was, it would ultimately be a castle in the air that could collapse at any time.
Body Tempering, Qi Refinement, and Bone Tempering were the foundation of all cultivators.
Normal martial artists would need at least three months to successfully complete body tempering, one year to refine Qi, and three years to refine bones.
It could be said that to truly step into the Postnatal realm, ordinary cultivators would need at least four to five years.
For those with slow talent, it would take seven to eight years, or even close to ten years.
Of course, if there was a genius, this time could be greatly reduced.
For example, Song Shidao was the young master of Song Fa. He had the support of the entire Song Fa and had countless cultivation resources since he was young. Even so, back then, it took him more than five years to go from Body Tempering, Qi Refining, Bone Forging, and then breaking through to the Postnatal realm.
Even so, countless people in the martial arts world called him a young genius.
However, compared to his big brother, Song Shidao could only admit that he was inferior to him and even worship him.
Chu Xiao entered the Song Dynasty at the age of eight. The moment he started cultivating, he revealed a talent that shocked everyone in the Song Dynasty.
One month to temper the body, three months to refine the Qi, and half a year to refine the bones.
In less than a year, he had completed three basic realms that ordinary people would take years or even ten years to complete.
Such terrifying talent in cultivation was something that even Song He had once said was terrifying!
In just ten years, his brother's cultivation had already entered an unfathomable realm.
In the past ten years, although Chu Xiao had yet to step into the martial world, his name had long spread among the people of the Song Clan, causing countless people in the martial world to be moved.
Half a year ago, Chu Xiao had officially entered closed-door cultivation. Perhaps the day he came out of closed-door cultivation would be the day he officially stepped into the martial world.
In the face of such a monstrous elder brother, Song shi couldn't bring himself to be jealous at all. All he could do was admire and respect him.
"Big Brother, Big Brother, if you don't come out of seclusion, I'm afraid Big Sister will really marry that guy Jie Wenlong.”
Song shi sighed helplessly in his heart. He then raised his head and looked in the direction of the back mountain of the Song Clan. A hint of anxiety and worry appeared in the depths of his eyes.
…………
In the Song family's grand but not simple living room.
A group of three people were sitting in the hall, seemingly discussing something.
"Hahaha…Brother Song, I wonder when Clan Lord Song will come out. I came here today with great sincerity, so don't make me wait too long.”
"Patriarch Song has agreed to the marriage alliance between the Supreme Castle and the Song Clan. In the future, our two forces will be considered one of us.”
A middle-aged man with a three-inch beard and a long embroidered robe was looking up at another middle-aged man with a smile on his face.
This person was none other than Xie Hui, the master of the Supreme Castle of Ba Shu, a grandmaster of the Finger Xuan realm who had the reputation of being a 'Wulin Judge' in the pugilistic world.
The middle-aged man opposite him was the current Second Patriarch of the Song Clan, Song Zhi, who was also known as the Earth Sword.
Hearing Jie Hui's words just now, Song Zhi's brows subconsciously furrowed slightly. Then, he relaxed and slowly nodded." I watched Niece Yuhua grow up. She's like my own daughter. Although I don't want her to get married so early, since this matter was decided by my brother, I can't object.”
"But…"
Suddenly, Song Zhi paused and subconsciously looked at the young man beside Jie Hui. He continued with a serious expression," Nephew Jie, do you really want to marry Yu Hua?”
"Second Uncle Song, how can this be fake? My love for Miss Yu Hua is obvious. If I can't marry Yu Hua in this life, Wen Long would rather not marry her.”
Upon hearing Song Zhi's words, Jie Wenlong's expression immediately turned serious and he nodded solemnly. His expression was solemn and determined. If Song Zhi didn't know what kind of person he was in Ba Shu, he would have believed him.
"Hahaha…my son is indeed a true person. Brother Song Zhi, you saw it for yourself. This visit is specially to propose marriage to Patriarch Song on behalf of my son.”
"The marriage between the Supreme Castle and the Song clan is enough to attract the attention of the entire Great Sui Dynasty, and the benefits are even more numerous. I think no one would refuse this matter.”
Jie Hui laughed loudly. When he mentioned the marriage between the two great factions, his eyes flickered with an inexplicable light.
Upon hearing this, Song Zhi smiled and shook his head. He did not reply, but the smile on his face was a little stiff.
He didn't think highly of Jie Wenlong, but he couldn't make the decision for the Song Family.
……
Lingnan was extremely steep and the entire Song Clan was built with the back of the mountains. It could be said that the Song Clan itself could be called a 'mountain city'.
An ancient tablet stood on a huge mountain peak behind the Song clan.
Written: Ask the Sword Comprehension Peak
These five simple words seemed so ordinary. However, if there were experts above the Inborn Realm present, they would definitely be able to sense an extremely terrifying sharpness from the words on the ancient tablet.
Everyone in the Song clan knew that these five words were carved by Chu Xiao three years ago. They contained an extremely powerful sword intent.
In the past three years, many people from the Song Clan had come here to study the five words on the ancient monument in order to understand the intent of the sword.
Even Song Zhi, a grandmaster of the Song Clan, who was known as the Earth Sword in the martial world, had studied this ancient monument for half a month and benefited greatly from it.
From this, it could be seen what kind of power the words 'Saber Inquiry Sword Comprehension Peak' contained.
After passing the ancient monument, a rather large stone platform entered his eyes. On the stone platform stood a bamboo building.
In the bamboo house, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth wearing a black gilded robe was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
This young man was extremely handsome. His face was like jade, and he had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. Even if he was just sitting there, he gave people a sense of transcendence that did not belong to the mortal world.
This youth was none other than Chu Xiao.
