2138 A body like lustrous glass
After the Sage’s blood entered Song Shuhang’s body, the “valuable objects” stored inside it were returned to their original owner alongside the large amount of vitality it had recently accumulated.
The colorful light was ready, and the same was true for his cultivation organs; everything inside Song Shuhang’s body was connected seamlessly.
With that, Song Shuhang’s recovery speed doubled.
The ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ was activated automatically.
123 holy ape projections appeared above Song Shuhang’s body. As he was inside a “grave” at this moment, when the projections emerged, they hovered above the grave.
Headed by the large holy ape, the remaining 122 holy apes arranged themselves in a rectangular formation.
A shrunken true dragon was wrapped around each holy ape, a genuine manifestation of the holy ape dragon power!
After the leading holy ape glanced at the gravestone with Shuhang’s name on it, its body recoiled in shock.
Song Shuhang’s Tombstone?
The 122 smaller holy apes also took a step backward, their expressions one of shock.
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet: “…”
Are they dancing?
The large holy ape managed to regain its composure after some time.
It stretched out its hands tremblingly and took out a scholarly scripture.
The projection of the true dragon wrapped around its body moved in front of it. The dragon lowered its head, and the horns became a stand.
The large holy ape solemnly placed the scholarly scripture on top of the true dragon’s head, and the 122 smaller holy apes followed suit.
Neatness had its own beauty.
Once something was done neatly, the entire display would look ceremonial.
The large holy ape clasped its hands together. Then, like an eminent monk, it recited, “An offering to the dead~”
The smaller holy apes in the back kept up with it. “An offering to the dead~”
Their majestic voice echoed over Song Shuhang’s grave.
Other than the desert, the gravestone, the old tree, and the broken sword… There were now 123 monk-like holy apes.
A sorrowful atmosphere permeated the area.
Just being in contact with this kind of atmosphere would stimulate one’s tear glands and make them cry.
This gave Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet the illusion that Song Shuhang was really dead.
❄️❄️❄️
Although the holy apes looked unreliable, they were helping a lot.
After they appeared, they circulated the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ at full power, which automatically enhanced the regeneration speed of Shuhang’s body.
The large holy ape that led the group was especially helpful.
It was a gift from Senior White Two, and it contained his understanding of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯.
In the past, Song Shuhang’s realm was too low, and he hadn’t learned the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯. For this reason, the large holy ape secretly trained the smaller holy apes so that they could help Shuhang circulate the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ without problems.
But now, Song Shuhang’s understanding of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ was good enough, and he had even obtained the General Principles Inheritance Chapter. As such, the large holy ape slowly began to share Senior White Two’s knowledge about the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ with Song Shuhang.
Senior White Two had never learned the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯, but he was the ruler of the Netherworld, and he had reached his own understanding of the follow-up chapter of the cultivation technique.
After the knowledge was passed on to Song Shuhang, it helped him greatly, and the recovery speed of his body increased again.
After the pectoral muscles, Shuhang’s spine fully took shape, and from there the rest of his body.
The Scholarly Sage’s blood traveled up and down his spine, strengthening the recovery effect along with his physical body.
The ❮Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha❯ was activated, and it began working in conjunction with the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯.
The ❮Steel Hands Technique❯ and the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ followed suit.
The various cultivation techniques that Song Shuhang had practiced began to activate on their own.
His innate skills were also unleashed one by one.
On the gravestone, white and black lotus flowers bloomed.
During this period of time, there was also the sound of murmurs. This was not the singing voices of the holy apes, but the effect of ❮Ksitigarbha’s Soul Ferrying Scripture❯ and the ❮Diary of the Ascetic Senior Monk❯.
Next was the ❮Three Thousand Sabers Scripture❯ that Song Shuhang learned from entering a dreamland, and the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ that he learned together with it.
After that came the fundamental volume of the ❮Daoist Canon❯ from Cheng Lin’s speech.
All the knowledge that Song Shuhang had come in contact with had merged into the murmurs, becoming the voice of the Great Way.
At this time, if someone were to pass by the gravestone and listened to these murmurs, they would definitely receive significant benefits.
❄️❄️❄️
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet sighed and said, “The setup for this resurrection is something else.”
No, wait. This isn’t a resurrection but merely the regrowth of a body!
Yet, it feels as if a natural treasure capable of changing heaven and earth is being born.
Fortunately, this is Wielder of the Will White’s secret realm, and there are no outsiders here. Otherwise, these phenomena would have attracted countless practitioners.
“Buzz~”
Song Shuhang’s body was growing well, and soon, even his waist had regrown. As his waist appeared, the seven-colored light returned to its place and let out a happy cry.
“Any further down and it will be a restricted zone,” said Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet gently. It mobilized the nearby sand, preparing to cover Song Shuhang when the time came.
While it was in thought, the virtuous lamia emerged from Song Shuhang’s body.
Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet asked in confusion, “Eh? Fairy, were you not involved in the time reversal?”
This virtuous fairy maiden has a mind of her own, and she’s different from the wooden body.
Why was she not affected by the magical technique?
The virtuous lamia shook her head slightly. Then, her wings expanded, enveloping Song Shuhang.
Fairy Creation also emerged from Song Shuhang’s body. She was similarly not taken away by the time technique.
After she appeared, she plucked the Scholarly Sage’s eye out of Shuhang’s eye socket.
However, she did not put Song Shuhang’s original eye back in. Song Shuhang’s body was regrowing, so she became curious and started to wonder if he would grow another eye.
After the appearance of the two fairies, Song Shuhang’s body received light of virtue from the virtuous lamia and scholarly energy from Fairy Creation. Coupled with the effect of the various body tempering techniques he practiced, his body began to change, starting to become transparent.
“A body like lustrous glass…” The stone tablet looked at Song Shuhang in surprise.
This was a characteristic that a physique would take on after a practitioner reached a certain level of body tempering.
This meant that Song Shuhang had reached a very high level in terms of physique.
“Still missing~ A little more~” sang Fairy Creation.
As the sound of her voice faded, Song Shuhang’s ghost spirit slowly emerged from his body.
