Chapter 651: Chapter 378: Debate in the Forbidden Land_2
Although she was now a person at the Blood Exchange Realm, her journey in Body Tempering Martial Arts had almost reached the end. She could even shake the Void itself when giving it her all, creating Void Rifts, but she could not comprehend the mysteries of the Void, failing to grasp its essence.
“…”
Chen Mu was also observing the Void Jade Crystal.
In fact, ever since he got it, he had been studying the Void Jade Crystal throughout his journey. The wonder of this object lay in its paradoxical structure – it seed to be a product that should not exist in the world.
Within that crystal-clear crystal, it seed to contain countless edges and structures, its essence like a piece of compressed Void, not belonging to any substance between heaven and earth. Even with Chen Mu having cultivated the Qiankun Eight Phases and observing it through the Qiankun Path, he was unable to fully penetrate and control it.
“The Path of the Void, if it were so easy to comprehend, would have already beco one of the martial arts recorded in the classics by now,” she said.
...
Listening to Qin ngjun’s response, Yin Heng couldn’t help but sigh, “Martial Artists’ cultivation, upon reaching the Unity of Heaven and Man, have arrived at the ultimate state, the end of Martial Arts of our tis.”
“But does Martial Arts really have an end?”
“Ten thousand years ago, the Marrow Cleansing Realm was the end, yet soone opened up the Blood Exchange Realm, giving birth to the first Celestial Human.”
“Earlier still, the Six Viscera Realm was the end, with very few able to comprehend their Domain.”
“The Martial Arts of today holds the Third Step of Artistic Conception as the pinnacle, Body Refining and Blood Exchange as the pinnacle. All Martial Artists who have reached the end always seek to carve a new path, reaching the Ninth Realm of Body Tempering Martial Arts, or the Fourth Step of Artistic Conception,” Yin Heng narrated slowly.
At this, Chen Mu and Qin ngjun both turned their attention to Yin Heng.
Although Qin ngjun had ascended to the Blood Exchange Realm, and Chen Mu possessed power comparable to those in the Blood Exchange Realm, both had reached this level much later than Yin Heng and naturally had far less exposure and knowledge about what cos after Blood Exchange than Yin Heng.
“Is there really a Ninth Realm in the Body Tempering thod?” Chen Mu asked thoughtfully.
Yin Heng first shook his head, then nodded.
Seeing his reaction, Chen Mu quietly waited for what he would say next, while Qin ngjun also listened without interrupting.
“There is no Ninth Realm today, but in the future, perhaps there will be,” Yin Heng said slowly. “ngjun, now that you have entered the Blood Exchange, you should know that in this Realm, unlike during the Marrow Cleansing Realm where terms like Minor Achievent to Major Achievent and Perfection were used, once one enters Blood Exchange, it only takes two or three years to transform all the essence blood into ‘Martial Blood.’ It carries the Power of Heaven and Earth, flowing through the body, bringing the Martial Body to a state of absolute perfection.”
“However, this perfection doesn’t an that one cannot advance further in refinent. So believe that the cultivation of Body Tempering Martial Arts is continually tempering the flesh to align with the nature of heaven and earth, from Skin Toughening and Body Refinent to Marrow Cleansing and Blood Exchange, step by step approaching the essence of heaven and earth themselves. The next step, then, might be a complete transformation of the nature of the physical body.”
“The path may be clear, but no one knows how to step onto it. In today’s world, the one who has gone farthest on this road should be the Abbot Zhen Ding of the Great Zen Temple. Known as the Ancient Buddha with a Golden Body, his strength would rank among the top five in the Da Xuan Dynasty, but as far as I know, even he is still bound by the nature of flesh, unable to escape this restraint,” explained Yin Heng.
Hearing Yin Heng’s narration, Qin ngjun showed a contemplative expression.
Martial Arts has always been advancing. The Eight Phases of Body Tempering didn’t arise all at once but evolved step by step. However, the ‘Blood Exchange Realm’ is sowhat different; at this stage, the entire body has been thoroughly refined, reaching a state of flawless perfection. It’s truly unknown whether a Ninth Realm lies beyond it.
So firmly believe there must be a Ninth Realm of Body Tempering, but there are also skeptics like Yin Heng.
anwhile, Chen Mu, upon hearing Yin Heng’s words, was slightly taken aback.
Talking about changing the essential nature of the physical body, he thought of himself. The Five Viscera and Six Viscera he had tempered to the extre indeed seed to exist in a way that had detached from the mortal flesh, approaching the essence of heaven and earth.
To ordinary people, a shattered heart would be a fatal injury, even for a Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster or a Blood Exchange Martial Saint, but for him, even if his heart shattered, it would still be able to heal itself, and the healing process would be incredibly fast.
This was not just speculation.
He had experinted with a non-essential organ, leaving a fine scar with Inner Breath Yuan Gang, but the scar did not bleed and healed almost montarily, its nature differing from the mortal flesh.
But the problem was, he was rely at the Marrow Cleansing Realm at the mont, not yet having stepped into the Blood Exchange. The transformation he had experienced was just extre tempering of the Five Viscera and Six Viscera. If what Yin Heng said was true, if the Ninth Realm of Body Tempering Martial Arts was about completely detaching from the mortal flesh, wouldn’t that make him half a ‘Ninth Realm’?
This didn’t seem quite reasonable.
However, after a brief period of contemplation, Chen Mu did not voice these thoughts. It wasn’t that he was deliberately hiding them, but rather he himself was still in partial understanding, and narrating it seed pointless.
He was uncertain whether there would ever be a Ninth Realm in Body Tempering Martial Arts, but with his talent and aptitude, he would certainly bring the Marrow Cleansing Realm and Blood Exchange Realm to their limits in the future, reaching the true pinnacle.
If the Ninth Realm exists, then at that ti, he should be able to glimpse that level.
