"This feels so good. The energy inside my body has completely fused with divine power. My flesh carries divine power, and divine power nourishes my flesh. Originally, my physical strength was greater than the energy within me, so there was inevitably a trace of sluggishness when circulating it. But after comprehending Xinyi Ba and becoming a god in my normal state, even that trace of sluggishness is gone!"
Son Gohan woke from his moment of enlightenment. His understanding of Xinyi Ba could now be considered an initial step through its gateway!
What remained was to slowly accumulate experience over time.
He also could not stop practicing the Twelve Great Forms, because practicing them was even more beneficial to advancing his Xinyi Ba realm!
The essence of Xinyi Ba was to cultivate the heart—one's state of mind. A practitioner needed an unwavering heart, one that would not be disturbed or tempted by the outside world. It was like the Super Saiyans in the Dragon Ball World: they had to possess powerful willpower to break through their own limits and transform into stronger warriors. Cultivating intent, meanwhile, referred to will. It was an inner strength that could help a practitioner overcome difficulties and challenges. It was like when Goku faced Frieza. Even when his body was already exhausted beyond measure, he still persisted in fighting and ultimately defeated his enemy.
As for refining energy, in the Dragon Ball World, it referred to the energy within one's body, divine power, and the like. These energies could make a practitioner stronger and even allow them to unleash powerful energy blasts against their enemies. Refining strength, on the other hand, referred to training the physical body, including the muscles, bones, internal organs, and other aspects. Only with a strong body could one withstand high-intensity combat.
