"No wonder Martial Saint Jiang managed to reach such a Realm in just three years. Such a rapid ascension in Realm can no longer be described simply by Talent and Opportunity. This is like an Immortal descending to earth or an old monster being reborn," Wang Yan said with emotion, looking deeply at Jiang Shu.
He could naturally tell that while Jiang Shu spoke of genes and cha as incomparably powerful, a veritable shortcut to the heavens, his commitnt to Martial Arts was as solid as eternal bedrock, unwavering.
"You must have realized it too," Wang Yan continued. "The Dream Sleep Elixir is, in itself, a traditional ditation technique of the Xia Country. However, this type of ditation technique has a very low upper limit. One needs luck and coincidence even to enter ditation, with hardly a chance to truly achieve it. Now, I will pass on to you the decoded, complete version of the Crystal ditation thod. Although basic, it is a truly effective cultivation technique that can help you reach a constant state of ditation."
"Although I had no opportunity for Fetal Breathing myself, one can still deduce from this thod just how powerful the Fetal Breathing Realm is."
Wang Yan, who had long practiced the Crystal ditation thod, had naturally reached the state of ditation.
With his powerful mind, a single thought could transmit information. Instantly, Jiang Shu received it. The transmission contained the original text of the Crystal ditation thod, three versions of the decoded text, and so annotations added by Wang Yan.
Having broken the fetal enigma, his mind was like pure crystal, devoid of distractions, making it easy for him to calm himself and enter deep sleep.
After attentively reading the Crystal ditation thod, it was like a fish leaping through the Dragon Gate. The panel imdiately updated, and his proficiency visibly continued to increase.
Crystal ditation thod: entry-level... small success (1/1000)
His closed eyes slowly opened. Between the flutter of his eyelashes, his mind was as clear and translucent as crystal; his ntal landscape was a vast, clear sky, utterly free from distracting thoughts.
Compared to the Dream Sleep Elixir, the Crystal ditation thod was clearly a level above; its entry-level state was equivalent to the third stage of deep sleep, and achieving small success ant directly entering ditation.
"Spiritual Cultivation in the Universe," Wang Yan explained, "is about developing the brain’s regions to thereby boost the potential of the entire body. The brain’s regions are the roots; vitality is the trunk. Only when the roots are firmly planted deep in the earth will the trunk grow thicker and stronger. Why does our Martial Arts cultivation have an endpoint? The fundantal reason is that it only studies the physical body and cannot develop the brain’s regions. Only by achieving the Way of Utmost Sincerity, which allows one to foresee the future, can one begin to touch upon the developnt of these brain regions."
Wang Yan pinpointed the core issue. He had long since entered the realm of powerful internal energy, and his Martial Arts Talent was the kind seen once in a century.
In terms of Martial Arts and his understanding of the mind, he surpassed countless past sages and present-day experts.
The realm of powerful internal energy and the state of Breaking the Void, Seeing the Indestructible Divine seed only a step apart.
In reality, however, this single step was the difference between a human and a god.
It’s like how mundane Martial Arts, no matter how diligently cultivated, can never compare to Divine Skills.
Such is the cultivation of the physical body.
To say nothing of the even more profound Way of Utmost Sincerity, which allows one to foresee the future.
That was why he had entered the world and joined the Xia Country: to gain access to primary materials on Spiritual Cultivation and seek a breakthrough. He aid to be the first to advance to the Fetal Breathing Realm, thereby nurturing his Martial Arts and reaching the legendary ultimate Realm of body and Spirit.
"Martial Arts may have an end, but Spiritual Cultivation does not. The mind is like the Universe; as the Universe is boundless, so too is the mind. The Xia Country has been laying its plans for so long, and it is finally reaching the concluding phase. The Heaven and Earth Secret Realms of various smaller nations are now falling into our hands. While the ruins in these ordinary Heaven and Earth Secret Realms may not contain exceptionally rare treasures, the textual records found within can help us decipher various descriptions related to the Fetal Breathing Realm much faster."
"Perhaps, before long, the Xia Country will completely understand the cultivation of Fetal Breathing and might even hope to touch upon higher Realms. And these matters, undoubtedly, are true national secrets, comparable in importance to the knowledge of nuclear bomb manufacturing."
"Although this is my first eting with Martial Saint Jiang, I feel an instant kinship, as if we’ve known each other for a long ti. We could converse day and night, exchanging experiences regarding these cosmic cultivation thods. At our Realm, the assistance provided by Heaven and Earth Secret Realms is already quite limited."
"To advance further, one must join the Xia Country and research these matters together."
Powerful internal energy densely enveloped Wang Yan, tearing at the air. Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi continuously converged from the surroundings, forming a Qi Shield around the two of them and isolating all sound.
Wang Yan continued, his voice now shielded, "These are national secrets. If any talented Martial Artist could simply access such cultivation thods, then what kind of secret would they be? Cultivation techniques of this caliber are completely sealed off. Only when Martial Artists of a High Realm appear will the cultivation thods for the preceding Realm be disclosed."
Wang Yan’s voice trailed off, leaving Jiang Shu ample space to think.
Join the Xia Country... Jiang Shu’s face was expressionless, showing neither sadness nor joy, as if he had anticipated this very mont.
Indeed, one could say he had been waiting for this question all along.
Since his return from Fusang, he had appeared suprely mighty and unparalleled. In reality, however, he had also beco a ticking ti bomb in everyone’s eyes.
The Xia Country would indeed not coerce him, but they would undoubtedly try all ans to win him over, using conciliatory thods to resolve the situation.
The Grandmasters’ ssages and the invitations to conferences were rely the first step.
The true crux of the matter lay in this present mont.
A higher Realm!
Only by agreeing could he continue to cultivate.
If he didn’t agree, although he could still cultivate, his cultivation thods would always be a version behind others.
His rank in terms of Martial Arts cultivation Realm, once at the very top, would gradually fall to the second tier.
This was an outright, undisguised stratagem. No Martial Artist could refuse it.
Presumably, Wang Yan had also joined the Xia Country for similar reasons, researching various Martial Arts in this flourishing capital of Shengjing, all for the benefit of the Xia Country.
