Sainthood and began his secluded cultivation.Within a time barrier slowed down a hundredfold.Li An stepped into the Gate of Great Perfection Saint Body.The cultivation of Physical Sainthood does not improve Li An's physical realm.The Great Perfection Saint Body is not a realm, but a talent, representing the strongest physique in the world, absolute invincibility among those of the same realm, and the threshold to breaking through the bottleneck of the ninth realm and reaching the Infinite Realm.Most talents in heaven and earth are innate power.Only the Saint Body of the physical path can be cultivated; this is the allure of a martial artist.Martial artists are a profession created by people on earth for their desire to be higher, faster, and stronger.Attaining the Saint Body is an extremely difficult task; without the Gate of Luck, Li An didn't know when he would have reached this point.Luck makes everything simple.But the excruciating pain he endured throughout the process remained the same, only condensed.Now, Li An held hatred in his left hand, and the warmth of frost on his right.These two extreme forces made Li An's already formidable will even more unbreakable.He stayed in the slow-motion time barrier for five days, which translates to a full 500 days!A thousand cuts, ten thousand needles piercing his heart, his skin torn and bleeding—500 days, and finally, Li An successfully attained the Great Perfection of the Sacred Body.Before the Great Wall funeral, he had already completed the seclusion for the Lesser Perfection of the Sacred Body, his physical strength reaching 538 points.After Great Perfection, his physical strength soared to 582 points, allowing him to control the power of the heavens at will.But this was not enough.Li An wanted to attain the Perfected Sacred Body in one fell swoop.But he ultimately hesitated.Because the pain of those past 500 days was still vivid in his mind, making him afraid to recall it.Initial success was effortless; minor success saw his strength skyrocket; major success nearly cost him his life.Based on his experience from initial success to major success, the path from major success to perfection should take 5000 days.The strength would also be even higher than at major success.Li An regained his composure.That was pain beyond what willpower could withstand.Li An felt he needed at least a score of 650 before attempting to break through to the Perfected Sacred Body.And this process shouldn't be difficult.Because he was only at the eighth realm now; his physical strength would increase again at the ninth realm.The cost of proving the Sacred Body was fixed and didn't increase with the individual's strength.However, this didn't mean others could emulate Li An and simply prove the Sacred Body through luck.Because Li An was already a superhuman being.Two numbers alone demonstrate his power.Throughout history, Divine Realm Martial Masters at the late ninth realm had a physical strength of less than 450.In this era, the average physical strength of martial arts prodigies of Li An's age is around 400.The threshold for achieving the Sacred Body is fixed, but others can't even reach it.However, Li An had already surpassed 450 before even attaining the Sacred Body.Firstly, he monopolized all the divine essence blood of the Cultivation Temple. No one throughout history has used such a vast amount of resources at his age, not to mention that bloodline fusion technology in the human realm is constantly evolving. Even if people in ancient times had it, they wouldn't have dared to consume it like he did.More importantly, the foundation laid by the Vermilion Bird was exceptionally good. Nothing like this has ever happened in human history—a high-level god of the seventh heaven risking their life to lay the foundation for a child who has just come of age.Even excluding the current era of great strife, the seventh heaven has always been an extremely terrifying realm.Secondly, he was originally a one-in-a-million super genius, a monster of three infinite levels, his physical strength inherently among the highest in the human world.Thirdly, for years, he'd been either fighting or on his way to fight, doing sit-ups every day. His physique would be uniquely honed through life-or-death experiences.Why is Li An so formidable?Because he has the best talent, the most resources, and the most training sessions.Even so, he's only just mastered the Heavenly Power, not qualified to enter the realm of the Perfected Sacred Body. That shows how difficult it is.But Li An is determined to break through before the next battle begins.The Hundredfold Time Barrier is his confidence.It's just the ninth realm?Ten days at most.Currently, his progress in all three realms has reached 60%.And because of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, he can cultivate all three realms simultaneously.Ten days is over a thousand days, a full three years, plus the blessing of the Joyful Union Power. He can't possibly fail to complete the final 40% progress.But the Joyful Union Power only lasts 15 days.Li An has been inside for hundreds of days at a time, and it's used up in no time.After much deliberation, Li An decided to bring Shuangxue with him to enter the slow-motion time barrier and enjoy the hundredfold difference in time flow.He quickly sent a message to Xue'er, telling her about the situation.Xue'er was naturally overjoyed, replying, "Inside the time barrier, we don't need to worry about anyone peeping; we can be completely honest with each other."This wasn't a text message, but a voice message, and the loving and expectant tone in her voice made Li An feel his blood boil.Five days later, seeing Xue'er again, he never imagined she had become a true fairy."The Second Heaven Ice Emperor Immortal Fruit?""No." Inside the slow-motion time barrier, Frost and Snow sat on Li An's lap and said softly, "It is an Immortal Fruit, but the prefix isn't Ice Emperor; it's 'Destiny'.""Destiny? What does that mean?"Frost and Snow explained, "The Immortal Path is vast and boundless. The Immortal Ancestor was right. In the future, the Ice Emperor will merely be a summoning avatar for me, no longer my primary means.""Therefore, I reforged my prefix.""The Immortal Path is carefree, not just about freedom on the path, but true freedom of will.""Our prefix can be anything, but the most suitable thing is naturally our Destiny.""What is Destiny?" Li An asked curiously.Shuangxue said softly, "The most precious thing, the thing that binds us to our lives, can be anything—a sword, a knife, a hairpin, or…you."Li An chuckled, "You chose me as your natal object?""What do I need to do?"Shuangxue shook her head, "The connection is already complete."Li An asked doubtfully, "But I haven't encountered anything unusual during this time. Does this mean that natal objects can be connected to casually without the other party's consent?""Yes." Shuangxue smiled brightly, "You didn't feel it because…""This is what my master told me.""It's not only immortals who have natal objects; everyone can have one. If, during the connection process, there are no obstacles and the other party doesn't even notice, then there's only one possibility.""The two are each other's natal objects." Shuangxue pressed her forehead against Li An's, her eyes overflowing with love."We've been bound by life for a long time."Li An was a typical tough guy; he wasn't yet adept at subtle expressions, and there were many things he couldn't say, such as how he had been busy cultivating and fighting all these years.We got married without a wedding, and we didn't even have a date.What is this?But I really can't spare the time. Sometimes I'm so afraid of seeing disappointment in her eyes.Because of the war, we're often separated. Every time we meet again, seeing her happy smile makes Li An feel even more indebted.I've never given her anything. When I first joined the Temple of Cultivation, I even used her cultivation points to buy resources.Later, when I had money, I sent her a large sum, but she returned it after two or three days, saying she didn't need it.Every time I finish sleeping and want to spend more time with her, just lying there and holding her would be enough, but countless questions immediately flood my mind.I'm always busy, and she's always standing there waiting for me to finish, waiting for me to turn around.She possessed none of the happiness other women in the world enjoyed—no wedding, no wedding dress, no dates, not even a decent photo together! Li An remembered clearly that no matter how wondrous the Immortal Ancestor's methods, Xue'er remained unmoved until the Immortal Ancestor whispered something to her.Now he knew the contents of that whisper."The Joyous Union can help Li An cultivate."That's why she chose the path of immortality.Because of me.This love is so profound, it can only be pledged in death.Shuangxue couldn't imagine Li An lying lifeless in a pool of blood.Li An couldn't imagine it either.Love had been buried deep in his heart amidst the busy days, growing into a towering tree.Moreover, Li An had no family left; besides himself, only his wife Shuangxue was listed on his household register.Thinking of these things, Li An, filled with guilt, lowered his head and buried it in Xue'er's chest.Xue'er felt heartache and held Li An tightly in her arms."No matter what happens in the future, I will always hold you in my arms." At that moment,Ang Lee, who was usually not good at expressing himself, suddenly spoke.He had once seen a love quote he loved and kept it in his heart, thinking he must tell Xue'er it."I will walk with my beloved to the ends of the earth."
