March 18th, the Jian Province Competition concluded.
In early April, Yan Chuan and his group left Jian Province.
On April 28th, Yan Chuan and three others challenged the "World’s Tenth" Tianpeng Academy, were defeated and fled, recovering only after three days.
Two days later.
May 3rd, night.
Only four days left until the opening of the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion’.
That night.
Yan Chuan and the others deviated from the official road, heading straight into the Yunling Mountain Range.
"Look, there is Cang Mountain."
The four climbed high to look far, gazing northwest, they could already see Cang Mountain.
Thirty-six great peaks!
Seventy-two smaller peaks!
And countless large and small hills and ridges.
"That highest peak is the main peak of Cang Mountain, Qingluan Peak. The Ministry of Works took over ten years to build an imperial city on Qingluan Peak, with all palaces and halls, a miracle indeed."
Wang Zhengyi looked at Cang Mountain, marveling at the uncanny craftsmanship of nature and the ingenuity of the Ministry of Works.
Building an imperial city on Qingluan Peak!
Unthinkable in the past!
But the Ministry of Works achieved it.
"Tis have changed."
"Since the court initiated the armant eleven years ago, the Great Yan has entered a new era. Previously, scholars occupied high positions in court, and martial artists road far in the Jianghu. But now, the ergence of the Mountain and Sea Realm is an unprecedented major shift. The Great Yan seeks innovation and change, advocating for spreading martial arts across the world and establishing the state with martial arts."
"Now moving the imperial city to Qingluan Peak and transferring all departnts and offices to various peaks of Cang Mountain is to show the attitude that those who do not practice martial arts and are resistant to change can’t even climb the mountains, let alone attend court. These people will all be swept into the dust of history."
"In the future, without practicing martial arts, one won’t even have the qualification to enter the imperial city or attend court etings!"
Yan Chuan often read newspapers, combining what he saw and heard, he roughly guessed the court’s intention with such moves.
With the imperial city and all departnts’ relocation, the Great Yan is bound to enter a new phase.
This phase—
"Begins with the relocation of the imperial city!"
"Begins with the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion’!"
...
"Rest well tonight, tomorrow we’ll cross three mountains and five ridges to enter the mountain range of Cang Mountain. After another day of travel, we’ll reach ’Chess Stone Peak.’
’Chess Stone Peak’ is one of the thirty-six great peaks of Cang Mountain, and also the specific venue for this ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion.’ The pinnacle showdown of the Heavenly Prides of the Fifteen States will take place here.
The four rested in the mountains, each taking a break.
Yan Chuan sat cross-legged, his face filled with purple energy, practicing the ’Innate Skill.’
From ’Mixed Elent Skill’ to ’Purple Mist Divine Skill,’ then to ’Innate Skill,’ Yan Chuan achieved a triple jump in his inner strength, finally reaching the Geng level.
However, even though the previous ’Purple Mist Divine Skill’ was only Xin Level Five Stars, with the boost of ’Yijinjing’ and ’Wave Riding Micro Steps,’ his practice progressed beyond the Xin level scope, nearly reaching the level of a Geng-level Divine Skill.
On February 24th, the first day of the ’Jian Province Competition,’ he successfully developed the ’Purple Mist Divine Skill.’ In just over two months, Yan Chuan had been practicing.
Yet, his progress was remarkable, his ’Purple Mist Inner Power’ was vast and boundless.
Now, with the solid foundation of the ’Purple Mist Divine Skill,’ practicing the ’Innate Skill,’ just converting all the ’Purple Mist Inner Power’ took half a month.
A full half month, all ’Purple Mist Inner Power’ converted, becoming more magnificent and firm.
"True Qi gathers for stability, wanes to form sickness. The root of disease lies in Qi, to prevent and treat diseases, one must seek the root. With ample inner Qi, no illness can invade."
"Golden Core fire control fully relies on natural flow. If unnatural, heaven and earth return to their own, all things to their own origin. Forcing unification will never work."
"What is absorbed is the righteous Qi of heaven and earth coming in from outside. With solid roots, undamaged Primordial Qi, in each breath, one can seize the righteous Qi of heaven and earth. Cultivating Qi with Qi, spreading through the four great elents, the clear nurtures and the turbid guards, all freely circulate. The longitudinal navigate the ridians, the latitudinal traverse the channels, all fully comfortable."
The ’Innate Skill’ advocates starting with life cultivation, emphasizing Qi practice and essence solidification as its foundation. Its specific cultivation techniques include ’Yudan Skill,’ ’Three Elixir Skills,’ ’Three Gates Skill,’ ’Circulation Skill,’ ’Sitting Position Alchemy Secret Skill,’ and more, encompassing a wide array, mostly gathered by Yan Chuan from various cultivation manuals and internal cultivation thods he studied, complented by insights and feedback from ’Mutual Teaching and Learning’ with different people, eventually achieving Enlightennt, forming effective cultivation thods, together creating the ’Innate Skill.’
The ’Innate Skill’ bases all these techniques on ’Qi Gathering and Qi Cultivation.’
Which includes more specific thods such as ’Qi Absorption Skill,’ ’Dan Tian Qi Gathering thod,’ ’Special Breathing Skill,’ ’Concentration Skill,’ ’Inner Vision thod,’ ’ditation thod,’ and so on.
For the practice of ’Yudan Skill,’ one must use the ’Concentration Skill,’ entering through the ’Limitless Stance.’
And this ’Limitless Stance’ derives from the first part of the ’Purple Mist Divine Skill,’ incorporating the ’Five Skills’ of the first part of ’Purple Mist Divine Skill’ and transforming them into a thod within ’Innate Skill·Yudan Skill.’
The ’Limitless Stance’ of ’Purple Mist Divine Skill’ was derived from the ’Mixed Elent Skill.’
Thus, the three great inner skills are in a continuous lineage, seamless in transition.
The ’Innate Skill’ gathers Qi the fastest.
Since Yan Chuan started cultivating, he transford daily, progressing rapidly beyond asure.
Splash!
The pure Quanzhen Inner Power flowed in his ridians, clearly vast and turbulent, yet gentle and smooth.
Practicing in three circulations.
Yan Chuan opened his eyes, a smile on his face: "At this rate, before the opening of the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion,’ I might hope to reach the Postnatal Fifth Layer!"
By then, he could further close the cultivation gap with the leading young Heavenly Prides at the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion.’
Yan Chuan thought that in martial arts accomplishnt, he was not inferior to anyone of the sa age group. With ’Mutual Teaching and Learning’ and ’Derivation Skill’ both enhancing his progress, Yan Chuan pursued relentlessly, unstoppable.
