Chapter 338: Chapter 69: Observing Tao, Observing Autonomy
In the cell, Li Fei transferred his Geng tal True Qi to the opponent’s liver and then quietly lay in wait.
Liu Wenjun was starting her attempt at “Unity” from the liver, so Li Fei had also transferred his Innate Qi there, ready to make his move at any mont.
Seeing that Li Fei made no excessive moves, Liu Wenjun began to collect her thoughts and engage in “Unity”:
She also had a “steel armor” Implant, which initially was implanted in the subcutaneous tissue throughout her body and then began to “spread” from there, penetrating into muscles, bones, ridians, internal organs…from the surface to the interior.
For the “Unity” process, she needed to reverse it, working from inside out, so Liu Wenjun started at the liver.
The Innate Qi she had cultivated was Geng tal Gang Qi, and now she was using it to carefully “shift” the implant branches at her liver.
She could have used force, but it was too overbearing and could easily damage the Implant, so during the “Unity” process, martial artists usually used Innate Qi.
If one imagined the Implant branches rooted within the body as strands of silk, then Liu Wenjun’s current technique was like “drawing silk from a cocoon”, controlling the Innate Qi with an extrely gentle and delicate manner to slowly extract the “silk strands” from within the liver.
This thod was actually the most common “Unity Technique”, also known as the “Drawing Silk Skill”.
During the process, one couldn’t damage the Implant itself, nor one’s own body.
Moreover, to not affect the subsequent movent of Innate Qi and the use of Extraordinary Abilities, it’s essential to preserve as much of the original pathways as possible while extracting the Implant.
The taphor would be that a bunch of silk threads had been placed inside a block of tofu, and one is tasked to extract all the silk without damaging the tofu itself, ideally preserving the pathways left by the silk threads inside the tofu.
A single mistake would an spending ti to repair the tofu and silk and starting over.
The difficulty was practically inhuman…
That’s why so people spend decades and still can’t complete the “Unity”.
It’s just too hard and too ti-consuming!
Liu Wenjun carefully executed the “Drawing Silk Skill”, quickly losing herself entirely in the process.
The “Drawing Silk Skill” was the most common Unity Technique, with many factions, and Liu Wenjun was using the “Separating Faction”.
This faction’s approach was to first sever the “silk strands” inside the “tofu”, and then extract them bit by bit.
The advantage of this was that it made the extraction less difficult and less likely to damage the original pathways.
Because the “Unity” process involved many details, nurous techniques had been derived from it.
So major Martial Arts Families and factions had mastered unique Unity Techniques that enabled one to complete “Unity” more quickly and easily, thus breaking through to the Tao Foundation Stage.
This was also the advantage of these powerful forces.
The Separating Faction’s Unity Technique taught to Liu Wenjun by Yu Longqing was neither particularly good nor bad, hovering around the dium level.
Using this Unity Technique, it took her over an hour to successfully sever a small section of the Implant branch in her liver.
During this process, since she concentrated all her attention within her body, she didn’t notice Li Fei’s aura had changed:
Calm, empty, untroubled, filled with a sense of Zen!
Liu Wenjun ceased her practice and slowly opened her eyes, intending to rest for a while.
Li Fei also withdrew the hand that was against her back, and with it, the Zen-like atmosphere dissipated.
He closed his eyes, as if deep in thought.
Liu Wenjun acted as if Li Fei didn’t exist, rested for over ten minutes, and then prepared to start her attempt again.
“Wait a mont.”
But Li Fei stopped her.
Without waiting for her to turn around, Li Fei extended his right hand again to press against her back and transferred a stream of Geng tal True Qi:
“Watch demonstrate it for you first.”
“Demonstrate?”
Liu Wenjun was a bit confused about what Li Fei ant.
The next second, the stream of Geng tal True Qi Li Fei had sent into her body separated into an extrely thin wisp, moving to her liver.
This feat alone made Liu Wenjun admit her inferiority.
With her control over the Innate Qi, she couldn’t separate it to such a fine degree.
If one were to make a comparison, her limit would be like ‘noodles’, while Li Fei’s was like a ‘strand of hair’!
This realization weighed heavily on her mood.
Such powerful control implied that he could master many high-difficulty Martial Arts, aning he would be even more formidable in combat.
So even if they were in the sa realm, she would most likely not be his match.
Lost in her thoughts, Li Fei had already directed the thin wisp of Geng tal True Qi into her liver, near a branch of the Implant.
Then this stream of Geng tal True Qi began to ‘simulate’ a cutting action on the branch of the Implant.
It was a ‘simulation’ because once Li Fei’s Innate Qi made contact with Liu Wenjun’s Implant, it would trigger a strong immune response, leading to unpredictable consequences.
The “Unity” process couldn’t rely on external help; one had to control their own Innate Qi.
Therefore, Li Fei was rely controlling the Geng tal True Qi for a simulated cutting, not actually touching Liu Wenjun’s “steel armor” Implant.
Liu Wenjun’s attention was soon captivated by Li Fei’s actions, and she concentrated her mind to carefully perceive it.
Then, to her surprise, she found that the demonstration Li Fei was giving her seed truly more convenient and faster than her previous thods.
