This ant that just three pieces of beast at were enough to easily et his daily target of 10,000 calories.
At the sa ti, Lin Ye received a system notification that he had gained a small number of strength and endurance attribute points.
Lin Ye finally understood why everyone said that if you threw an ordinary dog into the Qiming General Star Training Camp, it would erge a month later having broken into the Vein Opening Realm.
The best Cultivation Technique legacies, a premium training environnt, and on top of that, this incredibly luxurious, nourishing diet.
Here, as long as you were a living thing, it would be hard *not* to beco stronger!
There was supposed to be a rest period after lunch.
But the break was canceled.
The morning’s Cultivation Technique class had already thrown the schedule far behind.
Without any chance to catch their breath, the group was led by several instructors to another complex of buildings at the foot of the mountain.
A lush bamboo forest surrounded an elegant courtyard. On the plaque above the entrance, two words were written in an ancient seal script—
ditation Hall.
The doors to the ditation Hall were slowly pushed open.
A subtle fragrance, impossible to describe in words, wafted out to et them.
The scent was faint, neither sweet like flowers nor heavy like sandalwood, yet it seed to possess a strange magic, capable of cleansing the mind and reaching deep into the soul.
Lin Ye felt a wave of clarity wash over his mind. The lingering fatigue from his morning cultivation, along with the intense emotions from his struggle with Zhang Daoxuan and the others over source energy, were swiftly soothed by the fragrance.
He relaxed completely, from the inside out.
Beyond the marvelous olfactory experience, Lin Ye’s ears also picked up sothing unusual.
Within the ditation chamber, the babbling of flowing water and the crisp chirping of birds wove together, making one feel as if they were in a mountain forest.
But beneath these natural sounds, a high-frequency resonance seed to be hidden. It blended perfectly with the ambient noise, not the least bit jarring, yet it was subtly influencing everyone’s mood.
’What incredible techniques.’
Lin Ye marveled inwardly.
A two-pronged approach using both scent and sound, forcing everyone’s Spirit into a state of absolute relaxation.
This place was a veritable paradise for ditation.
The interior of the ditation Hall was vast. The floor was laid with soft, warm wood, and the surrounding walls were built from unpolished black stone, exuding a primitive tranquility.
Everyone found a spot and sat down.
Lin Ye sat down cross-legged and let out a long, slow breath.
’So comfortable.’
An unprecedented sense of comfort spread through his entire body.
Even with his "Healing out of combat" ability, he felt a deeper level of relief at this mont.
It was a relaxation that reached straight to his soul, like a string that had been pulled taut for ages was finally released.
Just as everyone was sinking into the tranquil atmosphere, a figure slowly walked in from outside the chamber.
The man who entered was in his forties, dressed in a well-fitting white Tang suit.
He wore a pair of gold-rimd glasses and had a scholarly, refined face. His gentle, cultured deanor held none of the sharp aura of a Martial Artist; instead, he looked more like a liberal arts professor from a university.
Seeing that everyone in the hall had their eyes closed in concentration, he revealed a satisfied smile.
He walked to the center of the chamber and clapped his hands lightly.
The crisp clap woke everyone, and they opened their eyes one by one.
"Hello, students. My na is Chang Siming."
The man’s voice was gentle and llow, very pleasant to listen to.
"I’m not with the military, nor am I one of your instructors. I’m here today at the request of the Ninghai Military District to share a Spirit Observation Skill that has been passed down in my family."
"This Observation Skill was developed by my ancestor, the Martial Saint Chang Weiting."
"There’s no need to be so formal. I hope that in today’s class, we can all explore this topic and make progress together."
Chang Siming’s attitude was extrely humble, completely without airs, and it instantly put everyone at ease.
After this brief introduction, he got straight to the point.
"Before we officially begin the observation, I’d first like to discuss with you all what, exactly, is Spirit."
"The ancient classics say: ’The heart is the organ of the sovereign, from which the spirit arises.’ They also say: ’The soul is the root of the spirit.’"
He paused, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
"What we typically call Spiritual Power is, in essence, the external manifestation of our spiritual soul. When we temper our Spirit, we are fundantally nourishing that spiritual soul."
"The stronger the spiritual soul, the more condensed the Spiritual Power becos, and the keener one’s perception. It can even interfere with reality, allowing one to do all sorts of unbelievable things."
"And in this day and age, the most mainstream and effective thod for tempering the Spirit is the Observation Skill."
Chang Siming spoke in a steady, unhurried manner, his explanations perfectly clear.
"The so-called Observation Skill is a thod for training the Spirit by constructing and visualizing a specific, powerful object within your mind."
"This object could be a towering, divine mountain, a boundless sea of stars, or an awe-inspiring god."
"Why does visualization strengthen the Spirit? From a modern scientific perspective, this process consciously activates and stimulates normally untapped regions of our brain, strengthening the connections between neurons and enhancing the brain’s computational and processing power."
"From a taphysical perspective, however, the more magnificent and powerful the object we visualize, the more it contains a kind of ’presence,’ a ’Dao-essence’ of its own."
"In the process of visualizing it, our Spirit will unconsciously co to revere it, draw near to it, and even imitate it. In doing so, we absorb so of its ’presence,’ allowing our spiritual soul to be subtly tempered and elevated."
