Tang Luo had a stunned look on his face, not from the effect of the Undying Battle Body, but rather he was taken aback by Ji Fu’s words, feeling a bit hesitant.

After all, it’s always a bit unbelievable when a habitual cheat gets hit with such a forceful blow of honesty!

“You’re saying that the primary thing about training the Undying Battle Body is about control over Spiritual Energy, what do you mean by that?” Tang Luo asked cautiously.

Looking at the other’s troubled expression, Ji Fu responded proudly, “Each Spirit mark is incredibly difficult to engrave, especially after activating the Undying Battle Body. The Spirit marks reveal your body’s unconscious movement of Spiritual Power, and trying to control it is even harder. Even Saint Han with his exceptional Earth Spirit Body managed to engrave only a second-grade Undying Body, a rarity in the world.”

“I now possess a fifth-grade Undying Body with three Spirit marks, meaning I have etched a total of fifty-three Spirit marks on my body. When I activate my Spirit Body, over half of the Spiritual Power within my Dantian region circulates with the Spirit marks. Trying to etch more Spirit marks has becincredibly difficult. Maybe after breaking through the Fierce Realm, I could control another tenth of Spiritual Power which should enable my breakthrough to a fourth-grade Undying Body!” Ji Fu claimed passionately.

“Wow, impressive, impressive.” Tang Luo gave insincere praises, “Then you say, if one had ninety-nine Spirit marks, does it mean that ninety-nine percent of the Spiritual Power within the body would be circulating with the Spirit marks, leaving them unable to unleash Spirit Arts?”

According to Ji Fu’s theory, Spirit marks are the embodiment of Spiritual Power. Each mark represents one percent of Spiritual Power. Thus, when engraving the last few marks, there would be no Spiritual Power left in the Dantian region. Whether this final one percent would be enough to engrave Spirit marks remained unclear, but it’d certainly be insufficient for launching an attack.

“What kind of daydreaming are you indulging in!” Ji Fu snapped, “Saint Han’s Earth Spirit Body only achieved the state of a second-grade Undying Body. Despite his accomplishment, how dare a person with unknown lineage like you, presto speak such big words!”

“Oh haha, just curious. Just curious and asking.” Tang Luo was surprisingly accommodating, as he couldn’t tell Ji Fu that he can perfectly control Spiritual Power. After all, trying to argue with someone who regards Saint Han as a deity in his mind is simply too arduous.

Ji Fu looked at Tang Luo and coldly said, “A person should be humble as they are. I’ll first draw the ninth-grade Spirit mark pattern for you. Then you follow the secret method of controlling Spiritual Power to engrave the Spirit marks. If you encounter any tough spots, don’t be impulsive. With calm mind and multiple trials, it should be no problem. Even someone with the worst talent shouldn’t take more than half a year to understand the ninth-grade Spirit mark pattern!”

“Yes, yes. You’re right.” Tang Luo was quite apprehensive. He was afraid that his control over Spiritual Power would be ineffective for Spirit mark patterns; however, he also harbored a small ambition. If he could indeed perfectly engrave a hundred marks, how terrifying would that be.

His body was not like that of ordinary people. For the ordinary individuals, at the apex of Transcending Mortality, after accumulating 9999 points of Spiritual Power, the rest of the power would be absorbed into the viscera and marrow, ready to store energy for the breakthrough. On the contrary, all of his Spiritual Power was locked in the Dantian by the Star Core. It was perhaps true that a fifth-grade Undying Body can defend up to 5000 points of Spiritual Power for others, but for Tang Luo, the amount of power that the Spirit marks could defend was far more than 5000 points.

If the Undying Battle Body was really as he had envisioned, then his future combat style would differ from everyone else’s.

Simply put, Tang Luo with a high-grade Undying Body has only one strategy: head on assault!

“It’s really quite wild. But I like it. Hehehe.” Thinking up to this point, Tang Luo involuntarily let out ssilly laughs, looking utterly foolish.

Ji Fu frowned at this foolish laughter, Old Master Xu even hesitantly said, “Con man, wake up!”

‘Whoa, whoa, whoa, what’s up?” Tang Luo quickly wiped the non-existent drool from his mouth and tried to appear alert.

Master Xu speechlessly said, “We’ve been talking about the Undying Body, weren’t you supposed to talk about the distribution of the treasury in the Minor Spiritual Realm?”

For him, the Undying Battle Body wasn’t that appealing. Even the secret techniques in the treasury were only antiquities from a millennium ago. The number of secret techniques he had seen in the Xu Clan were as vast as the stars; these meant nothing to him.

However, he was ultimately trying to establish his own power. The Xu Clan’s secret techniques were not to be spread outside. These could instead be used to win over people’s hearts, that’s all.

“Right, right, I forgot about the real issue.” Tang Luo said earnestly, “Regarding the treasury distribution in the Minor Spiritual Realm, this is what I think. We each imprint a copy of the cultivation techniques and secret arts. As for the Spirit treasures’ reserves and divine medicine, we follow what we discussed initially.”

“Since we said we’d give Ji son two tenths, I won’t back out; the rest, we each take four tenths. What do you think?”

“Hmm?” Ji Fu raised his eyebrows, incredulous.

He had always thought that Tang Luo would monopolize the treasury by using the threat of a clan-destroying catastrophe. But he didn’t expect that, even in this advantageous position, he would still be willing to share a fifth of the reserves. It was indeed a surprise.

Yet on the other hand, hearing about this distribution method, Old Master Xu immediately said, “No, no, not appropriate!”

“I think the four-four-two distribution method isn’t good!” Old Master Xu looked directly at Ji Fu and Tang Luo, speaking plainly.

Ji Fu watched with a stern face, feeling a surge of anger, thinking that appearances can be deceiving.

From the start, Old Master Xu had been mediating between the both parties. When Ji Fu wanted to kill Tang Luo, it was him who intervened. And when the warriors of the Tang Clan surrounded them, it was Xu who allowed Ji Fu to display his secret technique. He had originally thought that the scion of Master Xu was a straightforward person, but now it seemed that he was the most cunning of all.

He was getting the cultivation techniques, secret arts, and four tenths of the treasury resources but was still unsatisfied! Anger flared up in Ji Fu. He thought to himself: I really misjudged you.

Tang Luo was taken aback, unable to believe what he had heard.

The most reliable link turning out to be the problem was a bitter pill to swallow. However, given that the strongest amongst the three forces was Xu Clan, Tang Luo had already prepared for Old Master Xu’s demanding conditions.

After all, he too was a young master of Saint status, who needed to develop his own power. Tang Luo could forgive his actions to sextent; he had a bitter smile thinking: “So, dear cousin, how should we distribute to make it fair? Speak up, I’m ready to accept.”

Brawing against the inevitable, Tang Luo had one line he wouldn’t cross – the cultivation techniques and secret arts. Even if Old Master Xu proposed to monopolize the resources, he had no objection because what the Tang Clan needed the most now were the cultivation techniques, secret arts, and tfor development.

The biggest reason for this concession was that if the Han family’s deception was revealed, Tang Luo could still take his family and seek refuge at the Xu Clan in Yuanzhou.

The Xu Clan of Yuanzhou was the only one capable of holding off the An Clan. As Ji Fu forced the heir of Tang Clan into practicing the Undying Battle technique, Tang Luo saw Xu Clan as his last resort.

Old Master Xu was aware of Ji Fu’s anger and Tang Luo’s helplessness, but felt wronged, “What I meant was, I did nothing and taking four-tenths of the resources is too much. I don’t need it. I am willing to give three-tenths of the treasury resources to Brother Ji and another tenth to cousin Luo. That way you two can share equally. I don’t need the original Han Clan’s cultivation techniques. Just one copy of the secret arts would be enough..”
