Cultivation in Seclusion, Comprehending a Domain!

Having tested his current strength, Teng Qingshan was extremely satisfied, and in his state of high excitement, he felt not a hint of sleepiness.

He decided not to rest at all.

This mountain peak was far from the city, making it the perfect place for cultivation.

And so, for the time that followed, Teng Qingshan focused on familiarizing himself with his psychic power, constantly practicing the techniques of using it to control Flying Dagger for long-range attacks, as well as practicing defensive spear arts.

A true powerhouse.

Has no shortcomings.

Although his psychic power currently far exceeded the strength his body could erupt with.

Teng Qingshan was well aware that in this world, close-quarters combat and defense were equally important.

When long-range attack methods could not resolve a confrontation with an opponent, close-quarters combat became unavoidable.

At such times, fist techniques and spear arts would play a vital role.

In his past life.

Teng Qingshan had derived the defensive-focused Primordial Unity spear art based on the earth-attribute Horizontal Fist.

Although there was no "earth-attribute heaven and earth energy" in the Swallowed Star world, he could only execute spear arts based on pure martial arts mastery.

But this world possessed "Origin Laws."

Teng Qingshan prepared to refer to his methods from his previous life, constantly cultivating the Five Elements Fist, Primordial Unity, and the Crimson Tiger Roar Spear Art, among other Five Elements spear arts, attempting to cross the threshold of the Origin Laws.

Although the underlying rules of the two worlds were different, the paths and methods to becoming stronger were largely similar.

Ultimately, they all led to the path of comprehending the heavens and the earth.

With his experience as a supreme powerhouse and the help of the mysterious Little Cauldron.

Teng Qingshan could easily map out the growth path best suited for himself.

Under the moonlight.

At the mountain peak.

Teng Qingshan brandished the Samsara Spear, with several sharp Flying Daggers circling and whistling around him.

He continued his cultivation in this manner.

It was only after he had exhausted most of the psychic power in his mind and the Genetic Origin Energy lurking within his body that he sat cross-legged to absorb Cosmic Energy using the Samsara Guidance Technique to recover.

Inside his Consciousness Sea.

The trickle of Cosmic Energy entered his Consciousness Sea and transformed into psychic power, enriching the misty ocean of psychic energy.

Deep within his Consciousness Sea, the Psychic Power Sphere also rotated continuously, releasing psychic mist.

As for the rest of the Cosmic Energy, it was naturally converted by his cells into Genetic Origin Energy, constantly strengthening his physical power.

Two hours later.

Teng Qingshan opened his eyes, ending this session of cultivation.

"Using the Samsara Guidance Technique, it takes about two hours to replenish my psychic power and Genetic Origin Energy; this duration is not considered long."

Teng Qingshan stood up, stretched his limbs, and once again executed the Tiger Form Divine Technique, utilizing the Genetic Origin Energy hidden deep within his body once more.

Half an hour later.

Having increased his physical strength by over seven hundred kilograms, Teng Qingshan stepped onto the Samsara Spear and headed toward the city.

It was currently past five o'clock in the morning, and the night was still deep.

By deliberately avoiding surveillance, Teng Qingshan easily returned to his home.

In the time that followed.

Teng Qingshan began to cultivate in seclusion around the clock. In the morning, he would go to Nanshan Park to practice his spear and fist techniques, constantly translating the martial arts skills of his past life into this world.

At night.

After having dinner with his grandfather, Teng Qingshan would step onto the Samsara Spear and head to that steep mountain peak dozens of kilometers away to practice his psychic attack techniques.

At the same time, he cultivated the Samsara Guidance Technique and the Tiger Form Divine Technique, continuously improving his physical strength and psychic power.

As for the ruins recorded in the mysterious map, they were temporarily cast to the back of Teng Qingshan's mind.

After all, Teng Qingshan was the only one holding the complete map to the ruins, so he could go whenever he pleased.

Furthermore, no one knew how much time exploring the ruins would take.

Rather than wasting time and energy on unknown matters.

Teng Qingshan preferred to tangibly improve his own strength.

Just like that.

Time passed slowly.

Teng Qingshan's strength was also constantly improving.

In the blink of an eye.

Three months had passed. Under high-intensity training, Teng Qingshan's strength and realm had been steadily rising.

During this period, Teng Qingshan and Hong were also in frequent contact.

Originally, Hong would have been able to regain semi-freedom after handing over the mysterious Map Fragment to the Dark Hand organization, enjoying six months of vacation per year.

But it seemed the Dark Hand had encountered trouble, urgently needing a powerhouse like Hong to handle it.

So, with no other choice, Hong had to postpone his vacation, planning to come to Yangzhou once he finished his tasks.

Teng Qingshan was still very concerned about the only successor to the Xingyi Sect in this world.

He often answered the questions Hong encountered during his cultivation remotely via the internet.

Under Teng Qingshan's guidance.

Hong was also steadily advancing toward the master realm.

On the mountainside of South Mountain.

Teng Qingshan brandished the spear in his hand.

One could see the tip of the Samsara Spear.

At this moment, it was wreathed in wisps of pale yellow airflow; as the Samsara Spear danced, it formed an impenetrable curtain of light, wrapping Teng Qingshan entirely within it.

With a turn of the spear tip.

The pale yellow airflow instantly transformed into a fiery red airflow, and the originally calm, earth-yellow light curtain suddenly turned into streaks of fiery red spear shadows, carrying a soul-trembling might.

After a long while.

Teng Qingshan retracted his spear and stood still, a faint smile on his face, "Three months of hard training. The Primordial Unity and Crimson Tiger Roar spear techniques have finally been perfectly converted. The same goes for the fist techniques; both the Primordial Fist Technique and the Crimson Tiger Roar Fist Technique have reached a level comparable to the spear techniques. Now, in close combat, I can advance to attack and retreat to defend, while Telekinesis handles long-range attacks. My combat system has finally taken shape."

These three months.

Teng Qingshan had been completely immersed in his cultivation.

The feeling of becoming stronger every single day left him deeply intoxicated.

Now.

Teng Qingshan's pure physical strength had reached 100,000 kilograms! That is, an entry-level War God!

His physical force output had also increased to 8 times through his spear and fist technique practice!

The progress in Telekinesis was also gratifying, with his telekinetic amplitude reaching 12!

He could perfectly control 12 Flying Daggers simultaneously. At full burst, he could fully unleash the strength of a peak high-level War God!

After all, with his physical fitness reaching the entry-level War God stage, a single Flying Dagger could unleash an impact force of 400,000 kilograms!

Twelve Flying Daggers combined meant a terrifying impact force of 4.8 million kilograms!

As of now.

It could be said that there were no opponents left for Teng Qingshan on the entire Earth.

Even missiles, given Teng Qingshan's current nerve reaction and speed, could be easily dodged.

As for ordinary bullets and shells, they couldn't even break his skin if they hit him!

The strengthening of his body by the Genetic Origin Energy had exceeded Teng Qingshan's original expectations.

The combat power he could unleash with Telekinesis also delighted him.

And these.

Were merely the improvements on the surface.

The truly crucial point was that in these three months, Teng Qingshan had finally broken through the limits of his spear technique, becoming able to use his spear to draw upon the energy of the world!

Reaching this step.

Teng Qingshan knew he had crossed a vital threshold.

According to future terminology.

Teng Qingshan now had one foot inside the doorway of a "Domain."

And he had stepped into both the Flame Domain and the Earth Domain simultaneously!

He only needed to reach the Planetary Level, have the Genetic Origin Energy within his body transform into Force, and undergo the metamorphosis of his Telekinesis.

At that time, Teng Qingshan would be able to easily mobilize the fire-attribute and earth-attribute Cosmic Energy between heaven and earth to form a complete domain.

As of now, Teng Qingshan was only limited by the fact that his Genetic Origin Energy could not leave his body, and his Telekinesis had not yet undergone metamorphosis, so he could not draw upon the energy of the world on a large scale.

But relying on his powerful soul strength and profound realm, Teng Qingshan could still mobilize a negligible amount of the world's energy.

This was the reason why the tip of the Samsara Spear was wreathed in earth-yellow and fiery red airflow.

However, this bit of Cosmic Energy did not provide much help in actual combat; it could only offset air resistance, allowing the attack speed of the Samsara Spear to reach its limit.

Right now, Teng Qingshan's strongest means of attack was undoubtedly his Telekinesis!

12 Flying Dagger blades under his perfect control.

He could deal with 12 enemies simultaneously, or combine them to strike a single foe.

The strength that erupted from this was enough to make even Teng Qingshan look on in surprise.
