Breaking Through to Innate Realm

[End of the seventeenth year. With the help of the simplified Purple Dawn Divine Skill, you consecutively opened the fourth, fifth, and sixth Twelve Meridian Channels in less than a month.

Opening a Twelve Meridian Channel in almost a few days is abnormally fast.

And as you opened the fourth Twelve Meridian Channel, you officially broke through to the mid-stage of the Houtian Realm.

When you opened the sixth Twelve Meridian Channel, your strength leaped to the peak of the mid-stage Houtian Realm.]

"So this is the cultivation method for the Houtian Realm? Just keep opening up your own Twelve Meridian Channels..."

Looking at the content that had just appeared on the subtitles in front of him, Zheng Qian's eyes flashed with a divine light as he murmured thoughtfully.

He finally knew how to cultivate in the Houtian Realm.

According to the simulation's algorithm, opening three Twelve Meridian Channels meant reaching the peak of the early Houtian Realm, opening the fourth allowed one to break through to the mid-stage Houtian Realm, and opening six meant reaching the peak of the mid-stage. Opening seven should allow one to break through to the late-stage Houtian Realm.

By analogy, opening ten should mean reaching the peak of the Houtian Realm.

However, the further one goes, the more difficult it will definitely become.

February of the eighteenth year. After nearly two months of hard training, with the help of the simplified Purple Dawn Divine Skill, you consecutively opened the remaining six Twelve Meridian Channels, allowing all the Twelve Meridian Channels in your body to be fully connected.

Your realm also reached the peak of the Houtian Realm when you opened the tenth Twelve Meridian Channel, just as you had guessed, directly joining the ranks of first-class experts in the martial world.

And with the improvement of your realm, your cultivation of the Houtian martial arts you had learned became twice as effective with half the effort. In just a few months, you had mastered them all.

In the same year, your master accepted Lau Der-no as a disciple and made him your second senior brother, thus changing your position from the fourth disciple to the fifth.]

"Yue Buqun still accepted Lau Der-no? I thought that with the martial arts inside the Siguo Cliff cave, he wouldn't keep this spy anymore..."

Looking at the latest subtitles that had appeared in front of him, Zheng Qian murmured in surprise.

However, after a moment's thought, he understood.

Although Yue Buqun knew about the existence of the cave on Siguo Cliff in advance, it would still take time to fully master all the martial arts within it.

And what the Mount Hua Sect lacked most right now was time.

Because decades ago, the Mount Hua Sect was the Five Peaks Alliance Leader during its most prosperous period. Now, although it had declined to the point where only a few cats and dogs remained, the Songshan Sect, the new alliance leader, would not let their guard down against them so easily.

Therefore, even if Yue Buqun knew Lau Der-no's identity, he had to accept him. He needed to use him to pass on false information to the Songshan Sect, thereby buying time for the Mount Hua Sect to develop.

[March of the eighteenth year. With all the Twelve Meridian Channels in your body fully connected, you officially began to condense the Internal Force in your body into Innate True Qi.

The day you can convert all the Internal Force in your body into Innate True Qi will be the day you officially break through to the Innate Realm.]

[Nineteenth year. After nearly a year of cultivation, you have successfully converted 95% of the Internal Force in your body into Innate True Qi, and you are only one step away from completing the conversion.

With your cultivation speed, you should have completed the conversion long ago.

But half a year ago, your master Yue Buqun began to teach you and your senior brother Linghu Chong all the sword techniques of the Five Peaks Sword Sect in the Siguo Cliff cave and the corresponding methods to break them.

Even practicing swordsmanship for only half a day every day greatly affected your progress in breaking through to the Innate Realm.

However, although this prolonged the time it took for you to break through to the Innate Realm, it allowed your swordsmanship to improve by leaps and bounds.

In just half a year, you have brought all the sword techniques you have learned to the Minor Accomplishment stage.]

[This is naturally not because of your high talent in swordsmanship, but because the Innate True Qi you have condensed has been continuously improving your body.

This not only makes your body more coordinated, but also greatly enhances your memory and thinking speed.

But what you don't know is that not everyone can get such an increase. Only the Innate True Qi condensed before the age of twenty-five, when the body is completely formed, will continuously improve the cultivator's body, memory, and thinking speed.]

"There's such a good thing? The water here is really deep."

Looking at the content that had just appeared on the subtitles in front of him, Zheng Qian's eyes lit up. It was the first time he had learned about such secret information.

However, even if he knew it in advance, it would be useless, because Innate True Qi is not something that can be condensed just because you want to.

[May of the nineteenth year. You finally converted all the Internal Force in your body into Innate True Qi, and used this to open the Ren Meridian among the Eight Extraordinary Meridians in your body. You also officially broke through to the Innate Realm.

With the breakthrough, you ushered in the first marrow cleansing of your life. This not only greatly increased your lifespan, but also greatly improved your aptitude for martial arts.]

[June, Year 19. With your Innate Realm cultivation stabilized, you officially began cultivating the Xiantian chapter of the Purple Dawn Divine Skill.]

[From the Xiantian chapter, you learned that the main cultivation method of the Innate Realm is to accumulate Innate True Qi and open up the Eight Extraordinary Meridians throughout the body.

The early stage of the Innate Realm requires opening the Ren Meridian and Du Meridian, the mid-stage requires opening the Chong Meridian and Dai Meridian, the late stage requires opening the Yin Qiao Meridian and Yang Qiao Meridian, and the peak stage requires opening the Yin Wei Meridian and Yang Wei Meridian.

Each of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians is very hidden, fragile, and tortuous. If one cultivates randomly without the guidance of corresponding techniques, the meridians will be damaged, and one's strength will regress at best, and the meridians will be broken, and one will become possessed by demons at worst.

But with such great risks, the rewards are equally great. Every time a cultivator opens an Extraordinary Meridian, it will increase the quantity, quality, and recovery speed of the Innate True Qi in their body.]

"Opening up the Eight Extraordinary Meridians? Is this the cultivation method for the Innate Realm?"

Looking at the latest content that had appeared on the subtitles in front of him, Zheng Qian murmured curiously.

However, he was only curious for a moment, and then he seriously watched again.

What makes you a little regretful is that the Purple Haze Divine Skill only records how to find and open the Ren Meridian, Du Meridian, Chong Meridian, Dai Meridian, Yin Qiao Meridian, and Yang Qiao Meridian among the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

And it has very strict requirements on the quantity and quality of True Qi when opening different meridians.

However, this is not difficult for you, who has already reached the Perfect level in the Purple Dawn Divine Skill.]

Twentieth year. After half a year of hard cultivation, you finally accumulated a sufficient amount of Purple Dawn True Qi and successfully opened the Du Meridian among the Eight Extraordinary Meridians. Your strength also reached the peak of the early stage of the Innate Realm because of this.

In addition, you cultivated those Houtian-level martial arts with the help of the Innate Realm as if blessed by the gods. In just half a year, you have cultivated them all to the Great Accomplishment stage.

However, these martial arts do not significantly improve your strength, at most they can be regarded as icing on the cake, better than nothing.]
