With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal Chapter 533 - 488: Physique and Soul, Physical Traversal, Re
ng Chuan’s expression was thoughtful, and he continued to inquire:
"Why is that? Please explain in detail, Uncle Master."
What Uncle Master Zhao said was very similar to the state when he first ca into contact with the Xuanwu mark.
When entering, there was that dreamlike feeling.
Very much like what the other party said, the shell of the body drifting through the nine heavens.
Across from him, Zhao Shousui took a sip of tea and then said:
"This is because the spirit is constrained by the physical form, aning the ’soul’ is burdened by the ’body’.
The soul is formless and intangible, directly in contact with the nourishnt of heaven and earth. Even an ordinary person’s soul is more easily nourished by heaven and earth, thus far stronger than the body.
If ordinary people wish to retain their dream mories, they need to strengthen the body, which ans enhancing the flesh and bones!"
He suddenly realized:
"Understood... Uncle Master, does the spiritual foundation determine the strength of the soul?"
"Yes, you could say that the spiritual foundation determines a large part of it.
Most importantly, it determines how fiercely your spiritual fla burns once your soul’s wick is lit."
ng Chuan nodded in understanding.
Let’s not talk about the integration of blood, flesh, and bones.
He realized sothing else significant.
If you compare the world of Baxia to what he saw in his dreams.
The reason he can retain all mories, or rather, since his first entry into the world of imagery through the ’soul’.
Up to now, why can he always retain sothing on the spiritual level each ti he exits?
Just like repeatedly challenging Qi Shuai to master Long Fist techniques.
His innate essence has always been extrely strong.
This is inherently a strong body, which nourishes the soul in return.
Therefore, he was able to enter the world of imagery several tis when he was weak.
Not only was it easier for him than others to enter, but he never got lost or forgot.
According to Uncle Master, all these are because the body is supporting it.
Later, the reason he beca more engrossed in the world of imagery, the impartation of technique marks, or even entering the War Soul space.
These involve the ’otherworldly’ experience of the soul leaving the body, feeling more profound because of the enhancent in the spiritual foundation, and the more vigorously burning spiritual fla.
Upon hearing this, ng Chuan was invigorated and quickly asked:
"Uncle Master, if one day, the soul and body keep pace, or even the latter surpasses,
Can the body accompany the soul while roaming the nine heavens?"
Entering the ’other world’ with the body, that is what he is thinking, such an important matter concerning himself.
Zhao Shousui pondered for a mont and said in a heavy voice:
"...In theory, it’s impossible. The enhancent of the body firstly depends on nourishnt by energy, secondly on vigorous training, and third on heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Even when combined, these thods enhance your body through a ’dium’, nowhere near the ample direct nourishnt heaven and earth provide to the soul.
Unless you stop cultivating the Three Flowers of God, which is the spiritual power.
Doing so would an cutting off your path in Martial Arts, unable to gather the Three Flowers at the Top, and never achieving Grandmaster status."
He earnestly nodded in thanks:
"Understood, thank you, Uncle Master."
He asked these questions thinking about entering these ’other worlds’ in the future.
Wondering if there’s a chance of crossing over with the body, rather than ’soul traversing’.
Although body crossing is very risky, but as the saying goes, the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward!
ng Chuan always rembered, during the ti he entered these other worlds, while his spiritual power was continuously consud.
His ti in reality was paused!
For risky ones, such as cultivation technique marks from the Baxia world, and the world of imagery.
These he could choose to traverse with the soul, only acquiring knowledge, even if he ’dies’ in there it wouldn’t matter.
The reason he can ’die’ out of it is, as Uncle Master Zhao said, similar to waking from a dream, it won’t cause fundantal harm to the body.
When the body remains, and the soul perishes during the roaming, it’s just returning to the body.
Ordinary people feel exhausted after waking from a dream.
That’s the ’fla of the spirit burning the soul’, aning the damage to spiritual power.
This also explains why each ti he erged from a ’death’ in another world, he felt he lost a part of his spiritual power.
Returning to the previous thought.
Apart from dangerous worlds, there are controllable, non-dangerous worlds suitable for body entry.
Such as so of the war soul spaces, the ancient Martial Arts world already completed.
Also, the favorable Dharma Realm of Immortals and Buddhas.
If the body could traverse with the soul into these realms, wouldn’t it be like having a space-ti-stopped training ground!
Though without ’energy’, unable to enhance Qi Blood.
His Hard Skills, Body Technique, etc., even without energy interaction, would allow Martial Arts to improve.
Wouldn’t it be possible to practice there until his spiritual power is exhausted, thus achieving proficiency Limit Breaking!
He can practice fists for three days and nights in simple fist skills without getting tired.
Grinding fist skills and core techniques in reality, and miscellaneous mixed practice in other worlds, wouldn’t this ensure a takeoff...
Although Uncle Master Zhao said it’s impossible.
But...
He thought to himself:
"Not necessarily, besides the three body enhancent thods Uncle Master Zhao ntioned.
I can also pile up a lot of traits to make the body increasingly formidable..."
Interdiate traits are insufficient, but he still has advanced hard skill traits, even core traits—transcendence!
Even beyond perpetuity, there’s the super trait he has never encountered.
Soday, these will make his body completely transcend, keeping pace with the soul.
He also won’t give up on the cultivation of the soul.
Because intrinsic soul-enhancing traits are relatively few.
Regardless of fist skills or hard skills, most pertain to the body.
Few have traits enhancing the soul.
Things like Mana Flow, just expand the maximum spiritual power, sowhat touching on the soul.
These, according to Uncle Master, can’t match the enhancent and offerings of heaven and earth to the soul.
Therefore, there is no need to deliberately avoid it; in the future, he still needs the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top.
The strengthening of the spiritual foundation must continue.
However, greater emphasis must be placed on the physical body, striving to one day roam the skies together with the soul.
...
Coming back to himself, ng Chuan’s mood slowly cald.
Zhao Shousui, seeing him return to reality, continued to speak:
"Every ti you ask a question, we always get sidetracked. Let’s get back on topic.
Where were we? Discussing the auxiliary role of the soul in governing the flesh and bones."
He nodded apologetically and said:
"Uncle Master, please continue."
"Um... let’s do this. I’ll use a concrete example to illustrate, otherwise it becos too esoteric, and with your shallow foundation in Taoist practices, you might not understand."
"Thank you, Uncle Master, please go ahead."
"For example, the Secret Technique I gave you earlier, the Dragon Sitting ditation, how far have you progressed?"
"I’m almost finished."
"Which level?"
"All of it."
"... alright, alright, alright."
Zhao Shousui didn’t know what to say, wasn’t the Divine Foundation supposed to be insufficient, yet progressed so fast?
Fist Skill, ntal thod, Hard Skills, Secret Technique, I’ve heard this kid is still practicing Qi.
Where the hell does the ti co from...
Shaking his head, Zhao Shousui stopped pondering.
This must be the ti managent ability of a top genius...
"The Dragon Sitting ditation is truly a Secret Technique that acts upon the soul. Why does reaching the third layer of Perfection elevate comprehension? Because it is a transcendence of the soul from the acquired state.
This process, in our Taoist practices, is called Refining Spirit to Return to Void, containing profound truths of transcending inherent Taoist nature, which I won’t explain, otherwise it will be a lot of things you won’t understand."
ng Chuan laughed sheepishly and said:
"I won’t ask, please continue..."
"Then specifically, the Dragon Sitting ditation elevates your comprehension, assisting you in better contemplating matters related to the physical body, including flesh and bones, it’s just that simple."
"..."
He was a bit speechless, as if he had understood and yet had not.
But then he saw Uncle Master Zhao wave his hand and say:
"These things, when discussed in depth, are beyond your current understanding. You lack the foundation to materialize a vast body of theories, forcing yourself to learn will only entrap you in obsession.
The Great Tao is extrely simple, that’s the principle, anything realized in practice is this simple.
So it’s still the sa, solid martial arts practice is more important than anything."
"So..."
Zhao Shousui directed him out:
"Get lost."
"Alright!"
...
ng Chuan strolled back, thinking as he walked.
The reason Uncle Master refrained from speaking was out of concern that he would beco trapped in obsession.
These matters, if not understood and continued to be overthought, could very well transform into a heart demon, becoming an obstructive force during Martial Arts breakthroughs.
And these theories are inclined towards personal comprehension of "Tao."
The power of a heart demon can be greatly enhanced, potentially leading to failure at the mont of breakthrough.
Therefore, he could appreciate Uncle Master’s well-intentioned efforts with gratitude!
How can one avoid this pitfall?
These matters are the result of one’s own contemplation.
Through self-realization, these theories can be materialized, preventing the proliferation of heart demons.
Back in his room, he was still mumbling that line:
"To govern the three, it is not solely the doing of the mortal soul; the soul is still needed to coordinate..."
As ti gently passed, the Pile Skill exercise ended, and he finally stopped his musings.
He shook his head, no longer thinking about it.
Returning to reality, first, he checked how much was left to do before the Dragon Sitting ditation reached Perfection.
Introspection panel:
[Dragon Sitting ditation: Level Three (98%)]
Not to ntion the potential "hidden" effects included on the panel.
rely its ability to enhance comprehension upon reaching Perfection is strong enough.
Now, what he’s learning is becoming increasingly profound, and he fully appreciates the importance of comprehension.
No wonder figures like Principal Yang, Professor Li, and Principal Yin are all so insightful.
The strong are never "stupid."
Even if so strong individuals appear dull and taciturn on the surface, without showing their sharpness, and are often misunderstood by the diocre as being dull.
It is truly having great wisdom while appearing clumsy!
Ahem... he wasn’t referring to himself.
Dragon Sitting ditation has been trained while his Tao Heart was on auto-pilot.
ng Chuan rembered being at this progress when he checked last week.
A whole week, and there hasn’t been new progress.
Relying on a gradual verification of truths, ng Chuan estimates it will still take so ti.
"Just in ti, Headmaster Chen Tu’an is returning tomorrow, besides seeking guidance on the True Martial Thunder Qi and Demon-Banishing Divine Power, I’ll also ask about this technique’s Perfection key points."
The Martial Arts theory at the Celestial King Level, even just a bit of explanation, can enable him to break through faster.
Thinking of having to seek help on three matters, ng Chuan felt a bit embarrassed...
But sotis, one must have a thick skin...
...
Having just completed the Pile Stand, his ridians need so ti to adjust, and after recovery, he can practice the Heart thod.
ng Chuan, while waiting, pondered:
"Once the Dragon Sitting ditation reaches Perfection, though no special traits might be gained, could the panel show how the soul assists the physical body, governing the flesh and bones..."
