Secret of the Innate Realm, Another Breakthrough
"The Innate Realm?"
A strange expression appeared on the Old Doctor's face.
"This is a wondrous realm, but you can experience some of it first to understand its specifics."
After saying that, an aura emanated from the Old Doctor and enveloped Lu Qing.
In an instant, Lu Qing felt as if a heavy Da Shan was pressing down on him.
The surrounding space seemed to freeze, making it difficult for him to move even a finger from head to toe.
Lu Qing's eyes immediately showed horror.
Although he knew his master wouldn't harm him, the suffocating feeling, as if he were in the deep sea, still terrified him.
Fortunately, this aura was only for a moment before it was withdrawn. The Old Doctor only let Lu Qing feel the pressure of the Innate Realm before withdrawing the aura.
Lu Qing felt a sense of relief, and the suffocating feeling from before vanished.
It was as if the feeling I had just experienced was an illusion.
As for Xiao Yan and Xiao Li, they were still completely bewildered, showing no signs of distress and failing to sense the aura emanating from their master.
But Lu Qing knew that it wasn't an illusion; he really hadn't been able to move just now.
If his master wanted to kill him, it would only take a single thought.
"Master, what was that just now?" Lu Qing asked hurriedly.
Although he possessed a legacy at the Innate Realm level in his mind.
However, in the process of transmission, it is impossible to explain everything about the Innate Realm without omission.
Li Weitian is not the kind of person who fusses over things.
"What I just used was the Innate Aura, Innate Pressure Innate Realm," the Old Doctor explained.
"When Martial Artist who has honed their Divine Soul Power to the Acquired Realm breaks through to the Innate Realm, with the help of the Heavenly Laws, that divine Divine Soul Power will rapidly grow and become quite powerful."
"This divine soul power, combined with the aura of the Innate Realm, will form a unique pressure. Although it cannot directly harm people, it can intimidate the minds of Martial Artist. In the Acquired Realm, it is difficult for those without great composure and perseverance to get rid of this intimidation."
"Even if a Martial Artist can break free and not be intimidated, under such pressure, their mind will be clouded, their body will feel heavy, and they will find it difficult to exert even 30 or 40% of their full strength."
"Innate Pressure." Lu Qing murmured to himself.
At this moment, he finally felt a trace of the power of the Innate Realm.
Leaving aside the body of a cultivator at the Innate Realm, there's also the Innate True Qi, just how powerful it is.
This Innate Pressure alone gives him a natural advantage when facing Martial Artist in the Acquired Realm.
"That's right. So, A Qing, if you ever encounter Innate Realm in the future, you must be careful and never be reckless and offend such a being."
The Old Doctor knew that his disciple had amazing talent and that it wouldn't be long before he would reach the Inner Organs Realm.
Amazing talent in cultivation is often accompanied by strong self-confidence.
He didn't want Lu Qing to encounter any Innate Realm in the future and incur their dislike due to a lack of respect.
In that case, even the most amazing talent would be utterly useless in the face of absolute strength.
"Can't we offend someone at the Innate Realm?" Lu Qing scratched his head upon hearing this. "Master, if you had said this a few days earlier, it might have been okay, but now it's too late. It seems that I have already offended someone at the Innate Realm."
"What do you mean?" the Old Doctor asked in surprise.
"A few days ago, I went into the mountains to gather herbs, but in a valley I encountered Master Ma, who was being chased..."
"I suspect that the two villains who chased after Madam Wei and the others were from the same group that had been threatening the Wei Clan in the County Town these past few days. I killed them, but the person in charge of that group probably won't let it go."
Lu Qing recounted in detail how he had rescued Ma Gu and Madam Wei and her son a few days prior.
This includes the killing of those two disciples of the Heavenly Azure Sect.
The reason he didn't say anything a few days ago was that his master hadn't broken through yet, so it would be useless for him to say anything.
Secondly, his master was about to break through, and he couldn't let his master worry or affect his state of mind.
Now that his master has finally broken through to the Innate Realm, he can finally speak about this matter with peace of mind.
"This..." After listening to Lu Qing's explanation, the Old Doctor fell silent for a moment.
He didn't expect that just after he warned him not to easily offend someone at the Innate Realm, the person immediately said that he had already offended them, and that it was very likely a veteran Innate Expert.
But he couldn't say that Lu Qing had done anything wrong.
Because he knew that even if he encountered such a situation, he would definitely take action and could not stand by and watch Ma Gu and Madam Wei and her son be harmed.
At most, he won't harm those two people.
But he was also aware of his disciple's strength.
Not long ago, he had only just entered the Tendons and Bones Realm.
It's a miracle that they survived against two such powerful adversaries.
To say you're holding back is just wishful thinking.
So, for a moment, the Old Doctor really didn't know what to say.
"Master, did I do something wrong?"
Lu Qing asked somewhat nervously.
The Old Doctor sighed and said, "You were trying to save someone, so what wrong did you do? When this happened, we could only say that we, master and apprentice, were unlucky. There's no right or wrong to it."
The Old Doctor suddenly felt that his breakthrough was no longer so appealing, realizing that his disciple had offended such a powerful being.
If he hadn't broken through, he wouldn't have known the power of the Innate Realm, and he wouldn't be so worried now.
"Master, you are now also at the Innate Realm, so you shouldn't be so wary of other Innate Realm, right?" Lu Qing asked.
"How can your master compare to other Innate Realm?" the Old Doctor said with a wry smile. "I am just a doctor, and I am not good at fighting. How could I be a match for those Innate Realm experts who have cultivated since childhood and come all the way from battles?"
"Isn't even the legacy left by that senior Li Weitian enough?"
The Old Doctor paused.
After a moment of silence, he said, "That's all we can do. But the cultivation technique left behind by that senior Li Weitian is extremely profound. I don't know if this old man can learn it."
"Of course you can! Master, you were able to cultivate to the point of Inner Organs Perfection with just one Body Nourishing Fist. Senior Li Weitian's technique will definitely not be difficult for you either!" Lu Qing immediately flattered.
"Don't try to fool your master. I know what's what," the Old Doctor said with a laugh.
But now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to give it a try.
Let's see if we can find one or two simple techniques to learn from the legacy left by that senior Li Weitian.
They didn't ask to defeat the mysterious Innate Realm, but only to gain more power so that they could save themselves and their disciples, as well as the villagers.
Seeing that his master intended to cultivate the legacy left by Li Weitian, Lu Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew his master's temperament.
If he isn't put under some pressure, he'd probably prefer to study medicine first after his breakthrough rather than so quickly think about cultivating the techniques left behind by Li Weitian.
As for whether his master could learn the techniques in the jade slip, Lu Qing was not worried at all.
The master was able to deduce such an exquisite Inner Organs Realm method as the Body Nourishing Fist from an incomplete martial arts manual, even without any martial arts lineage.
And in such a short time, he was able to comprehend the Innate Method left by Li Weitian, hone his Divine Soul Power, and step into the Innate Realm.
From any perspective, he can be considered an absolute martial arts genius.
However, Master has always been so engrossed in medical skills that he has not had a clear understanding of his own talent.
"Master, I know that the Innate True Qi cultivated by beings in the Innate Realm has attributes. I wonder what the attribute of your Innate True Qi is?" Lu Qing asked.
"My Innate True Qi does not yet have any attributes."
However, to Lu Qing's surprise, the Old Doctor shook his head.
Seeing Lu Qing's astonishment, the Old Doctor smiled.
He knew that although his disciple had acquired many Innate Realm techniques, he only had a superficial understanding of many things related to the Innate Realm.
After all, the path of cultivation is extremely mysterious, and there are many things that cannot be clearly understood without personally experiencing that realm.
To put it bluntly, if you haven't reached a certain level of understanding, no matter how much you know, you can't truly comprehend it.
"There's nothing hard to understand about this."
"The human body is mysterious and profound. Apart from those who are exceptionally gifted or born with disabilities, normal people all have all Five Elements in their bodies, circulating continuously, which is why they are strong, energetic, and free from illness and pain. So why would there be any distinction between attributes?"
"The true qi attribute described in the Innate Realm texts is not something that one is born with, but rather something that the cultivator intentionally cultivates."
"The Innate True Qi cultivated at the initial stage of the Innate Realm has no attributes, just like the blank and pure sky at the beginning of creation."
"Only through subsequent cultivation, when Innate Realm Martial Warrior uses their Divine Soul Power to fuse with true qi according to their own preferences, and circulates their cultivation techniques to selectively refine the external Heaven and Earth Primal Qi, will the Innate True Qi within their body become imbued with attribute energy."
After the Old Doctor advanced to the Innate Realm, he gained a very clear understanding of the cultivation knowledge described in the Inheritance Jade Slip left by Li Weitian.
So he explained his understanding to Lu Qing in detail.
"Master, do you mean that after breaking through to the Innate Realm, the choice of Law Cultivator is the key to determining one's true qi attribute?" Lu Qing immediately understood.
"That's right. Everything in the world can be divided into the Five Elements, and the primordial Heaven and Earth Primal Qi and earth is no exception. The key to determining one's own true energy attribute is which attribute of Heaven and Earth Primal Qi one chooses to refine in the Innate Realm." The Old Doctor nodded.
When the Old Doctor 'Divine Soul Power leaped out of the Baihui Acupoint and sensed the colorful primordial energy between heaven and earth, his understanding of this Heaven and Earth Primal Qi deepened considerably.
"Could we refine the Five-Element Primal Qi together, so that our true energy can also gather the Five Elements?" Lu Qing suddenly had a whimsical idea.
"Theoretically, it is possible, but human energy is limited. Refining one kind of primordial energy would probably consume most of the cultivation time of the Innate Realm, so where would one find more mental energy to refine more Heaven and Earth Primal Qi?"
Lu Qing thought about it and agreed.
Being greedy and greedy often results in getting nothing at all.
If cultivating Five Elements simultaneously were so easy, then there would be no distinction between attributes in the Innate Realm cultivation techniques of the world.
"Master, what cultivation technique do you plan to practice?"
Lu Qing knew that among the inheritance left by Li Weitian, there were several Innate Realm cultivation techniques.
Their attributes are also different, and it is unknown which one Master will choose to cultivate.
"I haven't made a decision yet; I need to think about it some more," the Old Doctor shook his head.
After spending some more time in the Half-Mountain Courtyard, Lu Qing sought more insights from his master about the Innate Realm. After gaining a deeper understanding of this realm, Lu Qing left with Xiao Li and Xiao Yan.
My master has just broken through and needs some time to go into seclusion to sort out and digest the insights gained during the breakthrough. I don't want to disturb him for too long.
However, before leaving, the Old Doctor also warned Xiao Li not to take advantage of its invisibility ability and act too recklessly in the future.
It turns out that when Xiao Li and Xiao Yan were playing around in the yard, it used its invisibility ability again to play hide-and-seek with Xiao Yan.
However, the Old Doctor, who was already at the Innate Realm, saw through it at a glance, revealing the profound mystery of its invisibility ability.
This made Lu Qing's heart skip a beat, knowing that his previous guess was correct.
Xiao Li's invisibility ability could not escape the perception of someone at the Innate Realm.
He also knew that his master was seemingly warning Xiao Li, but in reality, he was advising him not to take advantage of Xiao Li's invisibility to do more dangerous things.
After all, when he recounted how he saved Ma Gu and the others, he mentioned how Wang Qingshan was killed by Xiao Li.
After returning from the Half-Mountain Courtyard, Xiao Li and Xiao Yan started to feel sleepy.
Lu Qing knew that this was because the two little ones had absorbed a lot of the Primal Qi White Mist from their master's breakthrough.
That Primal Qi White Mist is formed from the Heavenly Laws, possessing a very gentle and rich life energy. It is a unique substance no less than the Earth Vein Spirit Liquid, and it is extremely beneficial to the human body.
Even a small amount absorbed by ordinary people can improve their health and eliminate illnesses.
What's more, the two little ones absorbed so much.
The reason they feel sleepy is that their bodies cannot fully digest so much vital energy mist in a short time, and they can only digest it slowly by sleeping.
Even Lu Qing felt a huge energy stirring within his body, which was making him feel overwhelmed.
Lu Qing let the two little ones rest on the bed and watched them fall asleep.
Only then did he arrive at the courtyard, set up his boxing stance, and begin practicing his Body Nourishing Fist.
Once the body started moving, the energy transformed from the Primal Qi White Mist within the body immediately found a place to go.
It began to be guided by Lu Qing's mind, gradually merging into his blood, muscles, bones, and deeper layers of his body.
This caused Lu Qing's body to not only strengthen rapidly again, but also become even more energetic.
This time, Lu Qing practiced for an exceptionally long time.
He practiced the Body Nourishing Fist repeatedly, over and over again.
They practiced from the blazing sun until dusk.
If the villagers hadn't often seen Lu Qing practicing boxing in the yard, they would probably have suspected that he had gone mad.
Even so, seeing him box for so long still made some villagers worried, fearing that his body might not be able to withstand it.
Grandpa Zhang from next door came out of his house several times and came to Lu Qing's yard to watch him practice his boxing with great concern.
If he hadn't noticed that Lu Qing's expression was normal, he probably would have interrupted him.
Lu Qing didn't care about any of this.
Completely immersed in the practice of Body Nourishing Fist, he was in a wonderful state.
Finally, after the last rays of the setting sun sank below the horizon, Lu Qing shuddered, and his bones and muscles suddenly cracked.
