| Occupation/Role | Internal energy circulated through meridians for cultivation and martial arts 5 37 |
| First Appearance | Chapter 5 5 |
Power Progression
The documented stages below track Meng Qingshan’s cultivation of True Qi, rather than a separate level belonging to True Qi itself.
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Qi Sensation | 5 | Meng Qingshan senses and guides True Qi through the Hand Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian while cultivating the Long Wind Heart Method. |
| Long Wind Heart Method, sixth level | 12 13 | Opens the Shenque Acupoint and unlocks Regulate Breath, which increases Blood Qi recovery while seated. |
| Long Wind Heart Method, twelfth layer | 20 | Raises his True Qi Value to 115. Circulating its True Qi increases technique damage by 20%; consuming it can reduce incoming damage by 20%. |
| Ren and Du Meridians connected | 34 35 | Xiao Tianfang’s power transmission connects the two meridians. Meng gains automatic internal cultivation and martial-practice skills. |
| Innate Breathing Technique, first level | 37 | Produces two streams of True Qi, one cold and one hot, that circulate through the Ren and Du Meridians. |
| Innate Breathing Technique, twelfth level | 39 | Its Yin Extreme and Yang Extreme effects provide distinct ways to inflict internal damage. |
| Jun Yu Body Refining Diagram, fourth level | 50 | Refining the body consumes substantial Inner Breath and True Qi. The Innate Breathing Technique dissipates, and the Long Wind Heart Method’s foundation is damaged. |
| Innate Breathing Technique, eighteenth layer | 68 | Restores enough Inner Breath and Chi Force for Meng to advance the Jun Yu Body Refining Diagram to its eighth layer. |
| Innate Breathing Technique re-cultivated; Xuanming Captures Flood Dragon Diagram, fourth layer | 80 | Meng replenishes his depleted dantian, then gains a technique that applies True Qi through both arms for damage and defense. |
| Innate Breathing Technique, forty-eighth level | 174 | Reaches its eighth-heaven realm, placing Meng among top-tier first-class experts. |
Abilities & Skills
Circulation and cultivation
- Internal cultivation guides True Qi along a technique’s meridian route. Completing a Small Heavenly Circuit with the Long Wind Heart Method earns cultivation points 12.
- The Innate Breathing Technique primarily cultivates the Ren and Du Meridians. Its circulation does not conflict with the Long Wind Heart Method’s route 37.
- After connecting his Du Meridian, Meng can keep his primary internal art circulating without consciously guiding it 35.
Combat and protection
- Circulating Long Wind True Qi strengthens Meng’s strikes; he even channels it while wielding an Ox Horn Bow as an improvised spear 16.
- Yin Extreme True Qi can enter an opponent’s meridians, impede their True Qi, and make it difficult to condense. Its recorded effect also increases internal damage from moves by 20% 39 46.
- Yang Extreme True Qi carries a Burning effect and grants an additional 30% internal damage on contact 39.
- Meng uses Yin Extreme True Qi to seal Wang Ruozhi’s True Qi and stiffen Shi Baowei’s arm 46 47 126.
- Yang Extreme True Qi temporarily suppresses the Yin Extreme True Qi harming Yun Qinglan; the intervention is not a lasting cure 127.
Transmission and refinement
- Xiao Tianfang’s power transmission sends True Qi into Meng Qingshan and connects his Ren and Du Meridians. Xiao’s body withers after the transmission 34.
- The Jun Yu Body Refining Diagram uses Yin and Yang True Qi to temper the body, converting internal resources into physical strength at a substantial cost to Meng’s existing cultivation 50 131.
- Meng can guide another person’s cultivation with his True Qi, as he does for Wang Xiaohu 92.
Cultivation Ranks
- Duan Wuhen describes third-rate experts as having an opened dantian and True Qi that can circulate through an orbit; second-rate experts have a fully connected meridian and acupoint; first-rate experts have at least two connected meridians 166.
- Innate True Qi is described as the result of transforming ordinary True Qi upon reaching the Innate Master realm. Meng has not reached that realm by his forty-eighth level of the Innate Breathing Technique 120 174.
