Only then did Li Xuan realize the transformation Xu Yan had undergone during his breakthrough.
“Your disciple, Xu Yan, cultivated the technique you created. He broke through to the Innate Realm, with your complete mastery of the Innate Realm, your strength is hundred times that of your peers.”
“Your disciple has elevated his Descending Dragon Palm to the third level, understanding the true interpretation of the Descending Dragon’s Domineering Intent. You’ve achieved mastery of the third level of the Descending Dragon Palm and complete understanding of its Domineering Intent.”
“Your disciple has transformed into a Dragon Ascending Mountain River Spiritual Bone, you have acquired the Dragon Ascending Mountain River Spiritual Body.”
Dragon Ascending Mountain River Spiritual Body!
Li Xuan was thrilled to bits, the breakthrough that Xu Yan had made this time brought him immense gains.
His strength skyrocketed instantaneously.
Having just obtained an Innate Spiritual Bone, he has now achieved the Dragon Ascending Mountain River Spiritual Body.
At this moment, Li Xuan felt the mysteries of the spiritual body. Without the need to operate his cultivation technique, nature’s spiritual energy automatically entered his body and continuously transformed into True Qi.
He has an innate affinity with nature’s spiritual energy and all spiritual entities.
With the Dragon Ascending Mountain River Spiritual Body, it’s as if there’s an actual dragon and river hidden within him, embodying immense power.
“With the power I possess now, I can travel unimpeded within the Inner Domain, right?
“I can even face off against Great Grandmasters, right?”
Li Xuan thought excitedly.
However, he couldn’t simply view the situations within the Inner Domain plainly. After all, the secrets hidden within it might not necessarily be understood by Xie Lingfeng and Xu Yan.
Being a Grandmaster of Qi Cultivation doesn’t necessarily mean one has reached the top.
Furthermore, there can be a significant power disparity even among Great Grandmasters.
Xie Lingfeng practices evil cultivation techniques, which seemingly makes him strong, but actually contains hidden defects.
After all, Xie Lingfeng is still young.
Thus, one should not become arrogant, and assume that there are no more powerful people in this world.
Li Xuan glanced at Meng Chong below, hoping for his second disciple to also step up his efforts.
Now that Xu Yan has broken through, there was no need for him to continue observing. Li Xuan immediately left and returned to his small courtyard.
He was in a good mood today and gave Shi’er some pointers while teaching him the method of Renal cultivation.
A stream of Mountain River Sword Intent appeared, allowing Shi’er to refine his bones faster.
Shi’er was overjoyed; at this pace, he would soon complete the tempering of his Bronze Bones.
He wasn’t hoping for Golden Bones. After the Bronze Bone refinement, he will start his Renal Cultivation, striving to step foot into martial arts as soon as possible.
After Xu Yan broke through, he didn’t return immediately and continued to consolidate his realm.
Meng Chong was standing under the scorching sun, practicing the Golden Bell Cover technique. At this moment, he entered a mysterious state.
Feeling a blazing sun within his heart that responded to the sun in the sky, heat permeated his entire body, golden brilliance flickering. His blood and energy were getting stronger and his physical body was rapidly becoming more powerful.
“The sun within my heart is resonating with the sun in the sky. I’ve finally done it, my cultivation speed has improved, and I feel like I’m growing stronger in a melting pot.”
Meng Chong was very excited.
He felt he was not far from achieving minor success in his Golden Bell Cover.
Xu Yan returned on the third day after his breakthrough.
“Master, I’ve broken through to the Innate Realm.”
Xu Yan exclaimed excitedly.
“Well done, my disciple, you’ve truly embarked on the path of martial arts.
Don’t slack off, strive for early perfection in the Innate Realm.”
Li Xuan said with a gratified expression.
“Yes, Master!”
Xu Yan replied respectfully.
Glancing at Shi’er who was in the midst of serious cultivation, Xu Yan sensed a faint Sword Intent surrounding him, seemingly accelerating his speed of bone refinement.
“Master, what’s happening to Shi’er?”
“Shi’er’s aptitude is average, his cultivation is too slow. A hint of Sword Intent accelerates his cultivation.”
Li Xuan smiled and said: “Bronze Bones is Shi’er’s extreme limit. But even if he only achieves Bronze Bones, he would have elevated himself from the lowly ranks of martial artists.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan pondered, “Master, can 1 also use Sword Intent to assist my father and others in speeding up their bone refinement?”
Li Xuan laughed and said: “The foundation of martial arts depends on oneself, step by step, steadily cultivating and understanding the epiphany of cultivation. Fast-tracking won’t help strengthen the foundation.
“However, if there’s no hope for Golden Bones, there’s no harm trying.
Assisting in refining bones with your Sword Intent is only for achieving Bronze Bones, it doesn’t quite count as fast-tracking.”
“You need to control your Sword Intent in a way that it doesn’t hurt people.”
Xu Yan suddenly realized, thinking to himself, “Unless one possesses the talents of a legendary prodigy, one can sharpen their skills with Sword Intent without worrying about growing rapidly but loosely rooted.”
Upon this thought, Xu Yan instantly understood, “The reason why Master didn’t use Sword Intent to assist my bone-refinement, but encouraged me to pursue the Martial Arts thoroughly and systematically, was because he saw me as having the potential to be the prodigy of the ancient times.”
“Yes, Master, 1 understand.”
Xu Yan responded with a delighted nod.
Now that he knew Sword Intent could assist his parents and speed up their bone-refinement, he considered it a good thing. He didn’t believe his parents possessed the kind of qualifications that top prodigies have.
Besides, their age and late start in cultivating Martial Arts were obvious drawbacks.
Achieving a copper bone body would already be a commendable feat for them.
“Why is Shi’er’s copper bone a bit weak?”
Xu Yan queried with a frown.
While Shi’er was currently in the refinement stage for copper bone, he fell short of Xu Yan’s own state at that stage.
“Even within the same copper bone level, there are differences in strength.”
Li Xuan explained.
“I see!”
Xu Yan’s eyes lit up, excitedly asking, “Master, what about my jade bone in comparison to others at the same level? Is it stronger or weaker?”
Li Xuan chuckled to himself, thinking: “Strong or weak? Besides me, your Master, your jade bone is the strongest. Especially now that it has further evolved into the Dragon-Treading Spiritual Bone.”
But he merely responded, “As long as your heart for Martial Arts remains clear and you hold firm to the belief that you won’t lose to anyone in this lifetime, you won’t lose to anyone.”
Xu Yan fell into contemplation.
“When Master said this, he seemed to hint that there are stronger jade bones than mine. But as long as 1 am firm in Martial Arts, 1 can catch up with and even surpass them!”
With a determined look and burning spirit, he said, “Master, rest assured, my dedication to Martial Arts will never waver. I will certainly practice constantly, holding fast to the belief that 1 won’t lose to anyone in this lifetime. 1 won’t get knocked down by any setbacks!”
“Good! As long as you hold such a belief, I, your Master, believe you won’t lose to anyone!”
Li Xuan affirmed him with comfort.
Though he supplemented in his thoughts, “Except for me, of course.”
“Master, Xie Lingfeng and his associate want to visit you. Will you see them?”
Xu Yan brought up the matter regarding Xie Lingfeng.
Li Xuan contemplated.
“Xie Lingfeng is from the all-powerful Sword Master Cliff in the Inner Domain. He has an extraordinary identity and must possess numerous Martial Arts cultivation techniques.”
“If I could obtain the Inner Realm Martial Arts technique for reference, it would make it way easier to compile the technique. Plus, the technique won’t be made weak.”
“These two, Xu Yan had them fully convinced that the Martial Arts they’ve been practicing is fake. They must be contemplating how to switch to the true Martial Arts.”
“The Inner Qi of Grandmaster level Martial Artists is actually similar to True Qi. If you want to convert it to True Qi, you simply need to refine it a bit, and then it will advance into True Qi, just not Innate True Qi.”
Xie Lingfeng must be seeking him out for Martial Arts purposes.
Indeed, the Inner Qi used in a Grandmaster Martial Artist’s cultivation is also a type of True Qi. It’s just referred to differently in the Inner Domain.
However, it falls far short of Innate True Qi.
To convert it to True Qi, you simply need to refine it – to enhance its quality.
As for the method – Li Xuan, having fully achieved the Innate Realm and possessing an Innate Spiritual Bone and Dragon-Treading Spiritual Body, is capable of manipulating spiritual energy in a way far beyond the reach of other Martial Artists.
Refining the Martial Arts Inner Qi and converting it into True Qi in its real sense won’t be a problem for him.
By merely tweaking the method of condensing Qi and blood into Innate True Qi a bit, he can accomplish this.
Of course, the True Qi condensed from Martial Arts Inner Qi is bound to be weaker than pure Innate True Qi.
However, that is in comparison to Martial Artists with gold bones or jade bones. For those with copper bones or less, it might not be as weak, plus, Inner Domain Martial Arts Inner Qi varies in strength too.
Xie Lingfeng’s Martial Arts Inner Qi is stronger than that of Xu WuXin’s.
If he condenses it into True Qi, although it may not be as good as Xu Yan’s Innate True Qi, it will definitely not lose to Shi’er’s Innate True Qi. After all, Xie Lingfeng is among the prodigies of the Inner Domain.
“Alright, tell him to come by when he’s free.”
Li Xuan nodded.
Xie Lingfeng has a good reputation in the Inner Domain, and Xu Yan will venture there sooner or later. It could be beneficial to increase his connections in the Inner Domain through the amiable Xie Lingfeng.
Moreover, if the controversy over the true and fake Martial Arts really breaks out someday, they could use all the help they can get.
Of course, the most essential part is to swindle the Inner Domain’s Martial Arts techniques from Xie Lingfeng and the other one – with a model to refer to, compiling subsequent techniques would be much easier..
