Returning to Qiong Feng Pavilion, Gu Feng imdiately retreated into his room. He ordered Jiu Long to stand guard at the door as a protector, while Manager Wu was tasked with arranging the matters related to the "Talent Recruitnt Board."
Gu Feng closed his eyes, his breathing gradually steadied, and his mind entered a state of ditation as his Divine Sense slowly sank into his body.
The Dantian Spiritual Sea is the lifeline of all cultivators, the endpoint where all Spiritual Energy converges, and the starting point of the vast True Core within the body.
Gathering spirit into the sea, collecting a hundred rivers, refining the spirit to return to the void, through limbs and bones!
Cultivators absorb the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth, storing it here. As the Spiritual Energy accumulates, the True Core transford within the Spiritual Sea becos increasingly refined.
It transitions from clarity to viscosity, and upon reaching a certain level, this True Core condenses into an Inner Elixir, which, after being refined and purified, becos a Golden Elixir!
This process is the transition from the Qi Refining stage to the Golden Elixir Realm.
It sounds simple, but for many, it's as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
In Gu Feng's Dantian, the Spiritual Sea resembled a small marsh, with the True Qi within it crystal clear! This fully demonstrated the weakness of his cultivation and the insignificance of his strength.
It's likely that even the laborers in the Imperial City were on par with his level.
Currently, he could only perform so basic entry-level Five Elents Talisman thods, which could at most scare ordinary mortals.
The only thing that astonished Gu Feng was the pea-sized "Innate Dao Embryo" quietly curled up in mid-air above the True Core marsh in his Spiritual Sea, seemingly in a deep slumber.
This "Dao Embryo" was neither an Elental Infant nor a traditional Destiny Artifact; it was extraordinarily peculiar.
Taking out a Superior Grade Spirit Stone from his Ring Storage, Gu Feng ford a hand seal and pointed towards it. The Spirit Stone trembled slightly, and a wisp of radiant green thread flowed along Gu Feng's finger into his body.
Gu Feng knew this was the extrely pure Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Stone. He quickly activated his cultivation thod, guiding this Spiritual Energy to slowly pass through his Eight Extraordinary ridians!
The thod he was currently practicing was the Gu Family's ancestral Yellow Rank Foundation Establishnt Cultivation thod—Linghai Tianzhao Technique.
The Gu Family had better cultivation thods available, but the path of cultivation requires gradual progress. Even if Gu Feng attempted to practice those advanced thods, he would suffer backlash due to insufficient True Core!
It's like asking a five-year-old child to wield a hundred-pound broadsword; he would likely injure himself first.
The green Spiritual Energy circled around Gu Feng's ridians for a full eighty-one cycles, causing only a faint green glow in the True Core marsh of his Dantian Spiritual Sea, with its capacity visibly increasing by just over an inch.
"Sigh! This speed is too slow! It's like a turtle's pace!"
Gu Feng withdrew his Divine Sense, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and noticed that his clothes were already soaked through. The Superior Grade Spirit Stone before him had shrunk by a whole circle.
"Damn it! This little bastard is even more wasteful than I am! How do I make it stop?"
Another Superior Grade Spirit Stone's spiritual energy was depleted! Gu Feng felt utterly exasperated, this thing was like a "parasite" hidden within his Dantian Spiritual Sea!
With no other choice, he painfully took out another Spirit Stone and continued absorbing!
"Every ti I cultivate, sothing goes wrong. Maybe being a good-for-nothing is less stressful!"
Wiping the large beads of sweat from his forehead, Gu Feng suddenly rembered the jade slip of the cultivation thod left to him by his mother's remnant soul. He quickly took out the jade slip, hoping against hope that this cultivation thod could suppress the frenzied actions of the "Innate Dao Embryo"!
"Young Master, the three Governors of the Chen Long Army are outside requesting an audience," Manager Wu suddenly transmitted his voice.
Startled, Gu Feng rembered that when he left yesterday, he had instructed Nalan Yuan, that fence-sitter, to have them co by at midnight today.
Judging by the ti, it was about right. He didn't expect them to be so punctual.
But these bastards sure picked the worst ti to co! In his current state, how could Gu Feng have the energy to et them?
He quickly replied, "Have them wait in the reception hall. I'll see them once I'm done!"
Manager Wu left to carry out the order.
Gu Feng refocused on his own spiritual sea, quickly taking out the jade slip and sending a thread of divine sense into it!
"Heavenly Insight Mysterious Embryo Strategy—Immortal Grade Cultivation thod! Warning: Practitioners must possess the 'Innate Dao Embryo', or their Dao foundation will collapse, and their ridians will rupture! Rember! Rember!"
Seeing the annotation of the cultivation thod, Gu Feng felt a surge of joy.
It was indeed a matching cultivation thod! And an Immortal Grade one at that.
A mother truly wouldn't harm her own son!
"Focus your mind on the Mingn point, store your spirit in the Qi cavity, exhale to open the Qi chanism, inhale to unite the myriad worlds, return the spirit to the Qi within, let the embryonic Dao follow the heart, stars shift and move..."
Reciting the mantra recorded in the cultivation thod, Gu Feng followed the instructions to guide the spiritual energy around him, progressing step by step. His body gradually entered a ditative state, surrounded by a rainbow of light.
At the Dantian Spiritual Sea, eighty-one rainbow-colored tendrils erged from his Dantian's flesh, piercing through the small form of the "Innate Dao Embryo". These eighty-one tendrils corresponded exactly to the eighty-one ridians in Gu Feng's body, controlling the "Innate Dao Embryo" and gradually calming it.
The Innate Dao Embryo initially struggled, but as Gu Feng circulated his energy, it slowly submitted, its eyes losing their "greedy" look, replaced by a gentle and peaceful gaze.
Around Gu Feng, Buddhist chants echoed, and his body shone brightly. The Dao Embryo within him danced slowly with his cultivation, like a Daoist cultivating in a mountain stream, drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to refine himself.
Qi reached the Spiritual Platform, traversing the universe, reversing the creation of heaven and earth!
Cultivators walk the path against the heavens, seizing the creation of heaven and earth to achieve their own transcendence and freedom!
If soone with profound cultivation saw Gu Feng's current state, their jaw would probably drop to the ground.
Unknowingly, Gu Feng had already achieved a temporary state of Unity of Heaven and Man through the mysterious combination of the "Heavenly Insight Mysterious Embryo Strategy" and the "Innate Dao Embryo".
He was still a good-for-nothing at the third stage of the Qi Refining Realm, but his Dao foundation was as solid as a rock, his heart devoid of sorrow, joy, anger, or worry... completely integrated with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, a state of great freedom and transcendence that all cultivators yearn for.
The Heavenly Insight Mysterious Embryo... the mysterious embryo refers to the indispensable dium of the "Innate Dao Embryo", while the heavenly insight refers to peering into the Dao of Heaven!
At this mont, Gu Feng finally understood why his mother left these two treasures for him.
Why Gu Huaisheng was nearly driven mad because of it!
He had discovered that as the Innate Dao Embryo operated within him, his Dantian Spiritual Sea had undergone a trendous transformation, its scope clearly expanding, his body's ridians becoming incredibly resilient, and even his divine sense becoming purer and more substantial than before!
This novel is available on ".
This was not a breakthrough in cultivation level, but a change in foundation.
If, in the past, Gu Feng had no talent for cultivation, now his foundation had transford. If Gu Feng were to live again, he was confident that he could break through to the Elental Infant Realm before the age of twenty!
What delighted Gu Feng even more was that deep within his spiritual sea, there was a faint rumbling of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. He was confident that even though he was still at the third stage of the Qi Refining Realm, as long as he didn't encounter a Golden Elixir Realm cultivator, he could fight them!
Gu Feng understood that his current change was not a quantitative change, but a qualitative one!
Gu Feng withdrew his internal mystical power, and the Innate Dao Embryo also ceased its activity, returning to a curled-up state, quietly suspended deep within the spiritual sea.
Slowly opening his eyes, he saw that the area around the Buddhist mat he was sitting on was covered in black sludge, slling like old dog feces.
Gu Feng frowned slightly, recognizing it as the postnatal impurities expelled from his body.
He quickly called for the servant maids to clean the room and prepare hot water, wanting to take a good hot bath.
After all, in the reception hall outside, there were still three powerful figures holding significant military power waiting for him to give them a good talking to. He couldn't possibly et them in such a foul-slling state.
