Eighteen Arhat Golden Body Technique, Bodhi Sarira Pill!

Su'en thought about Ye Lingyun's words for a moment. That made sense: it seemed like he only came to look for her when he had an opportunity he needed to give her. But then again, what other occasion would he have for finding her? Cultivators were focused on their cultivation; they could go into seclusion for months or even a year at a time. They didn't have time for idle conversation.

Shaking his head and choosing not to dwell on the matter, Su'en pushed aside some of the thoughts running through his mind. He took the cultivation technique and the pills out of his pocket. Best that he give the opportunity away and receive the Critical Compensation first.

"This is a medium-grade Earth-rank body-tempering cultivation technique. This medicinal pill will assist you in cultivating it. Here, take them both."

"A body-tempering technique?" Ye Lingyun was a little dazed, then surprised. There were still relatively few body-tempering cultivation techniques in Jingzhou, and even fewer Earth-rank body-tempering cultivation techniques. But her senior had one.

After a moment's hesitation, she chose to take it.

Although she was a little embarrassed, she knew that if she refused, her senior would ask her to accept his gift on the grounds of the sect's revival. She might as well just accept it–as long as she didn't forget his favor to her. The items her senior had given her were all very precious, and she was only at her current level of strength because she had accepted his gifts.

Su'en was surprised to see Ye Lingyun make no further protests. He had prepared reasons to persuade her with if she proved too stubborn, but she had accepted the technique, no questions asked. It seemed that his junior had taken on a burden of responsibility to revive the sect!

"Continue working hard in your cultivation. The future of the sect depends on you!" Su'en stroked Ye Lingyun's head, turned around, and left.

In the past, Ye Lingyun would have chosen to believe Su'en's words. However, her opinion of her senior had completely changed during the contest today. His cultivation speed had been faster than her own, and his power had crippled an elder, a Golden Core Realm cultivator, in one move!

With her senior around, why would he need Ye Lingyun to revive the sect? He alone could take on the responsibility!

What puzzled her too, was that since her senior was so strong, these cultivation techniques would only add to his power. So why give them to her, instead of keeping them for himself?

Could it be that he…

As if she had thought of something out of pocket, Ye Lingyun bit her lower lip and blushed. Who knew what was on her mind!

...

What Ye Lingyun was thinking, Su'en had no idea. At this moment, all his attention was on the system.

[Ding!]

As expected, the system prompt sounded.

[The transfer has succeeded!]

[Tenfold Critical Compensation activated!]

[Obtained high-grade Earth-rank body-tempering cultivation technique: Eighteen Arhat Golden Body Technique!]

Hearing the system prompt, Su'en was disappointed. A tenfold Critical Compensation was worth a mere increase in grade?

If it had been a hundredfold Critical Compensation, this body-tempering cultivation technique would definitely have become a Heaven Realm body-tempering cultivation technique!

But Su'en's disappointment was fleeting, and soon he was in a better frame of mind. The body-tempering cultivation technique had been obtained through the system, and since it was a high-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique, he considered it a success as it was. Or at least, better than nothing.

Then Su'en realized: something was wrong. Didn't he have something else from the system?

In addition to the cultivation technique, he also had a pill!

As Su'en thought about it, the system prompt sounded again.

[Ding!]

[The transfer has succeeded!]

[Triggered Hundredfold Critical Compensation!]

[Obtained Bodhi Sarira Seed*1!]

What? Su'en fell into a daze. So it was the pill that was worth a Hundredfold Critical Compensation? Rubbing the back of his head, he sighed.

If only it had been the Earth-rank cultivation technique that had granted him a Hundredfold Critical Compensation!

Su'en shook his head, refusing to overthink the matter any longer. It wasn't as if he could change what had already happened! After returning to his courtyard, he took out his Energy Suppression Disc, and began to study the cultivation technique and pill that the system had compensated him with.

Eighteen Arhat Golden Body Technique, of a high-grade Earth-rank! It was the top body-tempering cultivation technique of Buddhism, and also the original of the 18 Arhats of Buddhism. This cultivation technique was divided into eight levels. When cultivated to perfection, one's entire body would be like gold, capable of resisting swords and sabers!

After reading it, Su'en was shocked. This cultivation technique was stronger than he had imagined!

Not only could it greatly increase one's physical defenses, but their strength and speed as well. As long as he cultivated the technique to its perfected eighth level, unless his opponent was an entire realm higher than him, or the cultivation technique they used was a level higher, they wouldn't be able to penetrate his defenses.

"This cultivation technique is awesome!" Su'en had nothing left to say. His current combat style only consisted of the domineering Heaven Realm cultivation technique: the Divine Lightning Sword Technique. What he lacked was mainly defensive techniques.

Afterward, he took out the Bodhi Sarira, whatever it was. It didn't sound like a pill, but it was somewhat similar to one.

When he saw the introduction of the Bodhi Sarira, Su'en was shocked again!

It turned out that after a high-level Buddhist expert passed away, his body underwent a natural transformation after being tempered. The Bodhi Sarira contained the blood essence cultivation of its master when they were alive. After consuming it, it would significantly improve one's physicality and perception. Even a Heaven Realm cultivation technique might not be able to speed up his cultivation to this extent.

"This thing is probably even more precious than a Heaven Realm cultivation technique. How have I never heard of it?"

After reading the introduction, Su'en realized that the pill was well-deserving of the Hundredfold Critical Compensation it had earned him! This transformation the Buddhist experts underwent was similar to the effects of Dao Fruits in the Heavenly Domain.

"There are so many uses for this thing. Wouldn't it be a waste to consume it directly?" Su'en looked at the relic in his hand and hesitated.

The Bodhi Sarira might be able to produce a large number of Bodhi Sarira Pills. The Bodhi Sarira Pill was one of the top pills in the Western Heavens. Only disciples who were almost immortals were qualified to take it; it wasn't something that ordinary disciples could access. Usually, only Arhats or Buddhas could decide what to do with a Bodhi Sarira Pill. Moreover, once such a relic appeared, it would be sensational, attracting many experts to fight for it.

For this reason, any powerhouse in the Buddhist Sect who was about to die would be informed in advance, to prevent Bodhi Sarira Pills from being lost. The preciousness of the pills caused whispers about them to circulate in the other continents. However, the Buddhist Sects were too protective of their Bodhi Sarira Pills for them to be snatched away!
