Chapter Forty-Four: Further Progress

  Jun Ye walked steadily back to his room, but when he saw him in this state, he almost cried. With trembling hands, he helped him remove his clothes and then carefully washed him with clean water. Jun Ye stood still throughout, knowing that if he lost his balance and fell, he would immediately fall asleep due to his current exhaustion! But as long as he could get through this, and recover his strength while remaining awake, it meant that he had once again pushed past another limit of his body!

  After wiping his body clean, Ke'er retreated and went out. Naked, Jun Xie stood still, entering a deep state of meditation. His mind guarded the Lingtai, and the first layer of the Heaven Creation Skill's circulation route slowly began to flow.

  Jun Xie suddenly found that the seven-colored crystal tower in his mind was rotating faster than before, and the heavenly spiritual energy emanating from it was also more intense. The spiritual energy slowly entered Jun Xie's meridians, flowing along the pathways, and every time it reached a new place, Jun Xie felt a refreshing and comfortable sensation, just like a parched throat that was about to smoke suddenly being quenched by a cool mountain spring. This feeling of comfort was indescribable.

  The mist entered Kūnya's meridians more and more urgently, slowly repairing his extremely exhausted body. Kūnya's whole body gradually became itchy, especially the injured areas, which were so itchy that they felt like being scratched by a hundred claws. Kūnya tightly controlled his desire to scratch himself, using all his might to control his mind and enter a meditative state, slowly... entering a state of complete absorption.

  Unbeknownst to you, time slowly passed by, and all the damaged areas on your body's surface gradually stopped oozing clear liquid, slowly solidified, and slowly formed scars...

  Gradually, the scars on Jun Xie's body slowly wrinkled, then hardened, and later, little by little, they fell off like powder...

  At her feet, a thin layer of skin flakes had slowly accumulated, while the skin on her body had become as snow-white and smooth as before, the only difference being that it was now more supple...

  The muscles on my body, after a day of super high-intensity training, were tightly clenched and slowly seeping out tiny droplets of crystal clear water as they lightly trembled in an unconscious yet rhythmic manner. After the trembling subsided, the muscles gradually relaxed and returned to their pre-training state of full-body relaxation. Following another wave-like sensation of soreness, numbness, and itchiness, I finally thoroughly relaxed...

  Jun Xie, who had entered a state of cultivation, was completely unaware of all these changes. After his body had endured extreme fatigue and held on, what followed was a tsunami-like comfort, and his entire spiritual consciousness entered a realm of emptiness, just like a person freely wandering in the boundless and endless calm sea, extremely comfortable; that feeling of comfort was like the waves of the ocean, one wave after another surging over...

  In his mind, that seven-colored crystal tower flowed out of the thick fog, which became more and more intense. Wave after wave of pure and extreme heavenly energy surged into Jun Xie's body, washing away every meridian, every inch of muscle, and every strand of tendon...

  You clearly felt that the fine silk thread of energy in the meridians, after being washed away by the torrent of spiritual energy, was slowly growing stronger, although not to a great extent, but indeed constantly strengthening. Your thoughts and feelings were extremely clear and empty, as if you didn't feel any fatigue at all. All your spirit seemed to be harmoniously integrated with this strange little tower in your mind in an instant. The subtle feeling of comfort was so strong that even someone with a steel-like nerve like yours couldn't help but be enchanted by it.

  Suddenly, the seven-colored light of the Hongyuan Pagoda stopped rotating and came to a halt. Jun Xie's mind shook as he instantly awakened from that incredibly wonderful realm. His mental state also returned to the real world in an instant, and the spiritual energy white mist inside his body retreated like the tide. Jun Xie only felt that his entire body was filled with strength, slowly opening his eyes, two sharp divine lights shot out!

  Gently exercising the body, all over the bones and joints "crack" "crack" a burst of crisp sound, instantly smooth and comfortable, the mental state is surprisingly good. The pale moonlight gently falls down, Jun Xie walks to the window, the sky is bright and clear, the moon is like a plate, the blue sky stretches for thousands of miles, a vast expanse of whiteness.

  Mid-Autumn Festival is here. In my original world, Mid-Autumn Festival was on August 15th, but there's a Golden Autumn Festival here, which falls on August 20th.

  No matter which world's moon, the moonlight is always gentle as water, clear and bright everywhere, you lightly sigh, make an unexpected discovery, in your heart, there are no longer any melancholy or lonely emotions, it seems like everything from before has already become habitual. The bright moon remains, the vast sky remains! Still under the same sky, just like... a transfer of work location...

  After re-examining his body carefully, Jun Xie only then discovered that the numerous wounds on his body had not only healed, but even more astonishingly, the scars had vanished into thin air overnight. Moreover, his skin was now even smoother and more supple than before. Jun Xie's eyes widened in astonishment: He never thought that the recovery ability of this "Opening Heaven and Earth" technique would be so incredibly powerful!

  I thought that with such cruel training, my skin would become bronze-colored in a few days, but unexpectedly, my physical fitness improved rapidly, and my skin became smoother and smoother... What a disappointment! Fortunately, the skin is developing towards elasticity, if it becomes too tender, how can I go out to see people?!

  He raised his energy again, and suddenly felt extremely delighted! After a day of intense training, the effect of this exercise was remarkably evident. The hair-like energy inside his body had almost doubled in size. Hmm, if he were to compare it to before, when his energy flow was as thin as a strand of hair, now it was as thick as a boar's bristle... Jun Xie broke out in cold sweat, and this comparison made him feel somewhat self-deprecating...

  The vigorous flow of air also accelerated; suddenly there was a flash of insight: his cultivation of the first layer of the "Opening Heaven and Earth" technique had taken another big step forward!

  And an even bigger surprise is that it's now possible to see inside! This is something that can only be achieved when one has reached the Xiantian realm in martial arts cultivation. Who would have thought that the Open Heaven Creation Skill would be so wonderful? Although my current abilities are still far from reaching the standards of a pre-heavenly martial artist, I'm already able to perform internal vision!

  It seems that after this extreme training, when the body's physical strength is completely exhausted and then the Qigong exercise "Opening Heaven and Earth" is practiced again, there are unexpectedly good effects.

  Along the meridians, Jun Xie finally understood the subtleties of this world's mysterious energy. The so-called cultivation of mysterious energy is actually not much different from the cultivation of internal strength, and can almost be said to be a special method of internal strength cultivation. Although the mysterious energy is not as lasting as the internal force, its explosive power is much stronger than the internal force. Precisely because of its strong explosive power, the concealment of this magical power is relatively insufficient, and naturally, the aftereffect is also more insufficient. The higher the level of mysterious energy cultivation, the more obvious the external effect is, which is why there are various colors of mysterious energy halos!

  The cultivation method of Xuan Qi, on the other hand, is almost identical to that of Nei Gong. It also follows a fixed meridian route for circulation, such as the nine levels below being one meridian, whether it's the Eight Extraordinary Meridians or the Twelve Regular Meridians, only one meridian can be opened to form an inner loop; when breaking through the silver boundary, another meridian can be opened, which is equivalent to adding a branch, but the inner loop remains, only the range is much larger than before.

  This must be the reason for the special physique of the people in this world, no wonder every time the mysterious energy advances, it is extremely painful, like a poisonous snake shedding its skin. It turns out that forcing open a meridian is not so easy to bear.

  From then on, it can be inferred that when the twelve regular meridians are all open and half of the eight extraordinary meridians are unblocked, it is the realm of Supreme Divine Mystery. However, there is another prerequisite: among the half of the eight extraordinary meridians that are unblocked, the Ren and Du meridians must be connected; only then can it be considered a true Supreme Divine Mystery realm. If you have also opened up four of the eight extraordinary meridians but do not include the Ren and Du meridians, it is merely a pseudo-Supreme Divine Mystery realm!

  The only unexpected thing is that after reaching the Supreme Divine Realm, although all 12 regular meridians in the body have been opened up, and the dantian is still the warehouse of Xuan Qi, the eight extraordinary vessels only need to open up four, and the more difficult ones are just Ren and Du vessels. After that, one can become the highest existence in this world. However, as for martial arts, even if one has achieved the Supreme Divine Realm, there are still four meridians in the body that are closed off.

  Then, above the Supreme God Xuan, is there another higher existence? !
