Chapter 398: Chapter 397 Discussion
One week later, inside a special training room of the Military Departnt.
Qin Yanyang stared at the indentation of a footprint left on the ten-centiter-thick steel plate in front of her, falling silent.
With her current Realm, she naturally could also leave marks with a punch or kick on it, but certainly not with the sa effect as Yang Fei’s recent kick.
Especially since the sound of tal striking still echoed in her ears.
Her gaze shifted downward, observing Yang Fei’s feet.
With a face full of surprise, Yang Fei looked at his bare feet and said, "It doesn’t hurt at all, feels just like sothing of the sa hardness colliding."
Qin Yanyang took a deep breath and asked him, "Is this Body Refining?"
Yang Fei nodded and said, "It should be. During this past week, neither of us has been Cultivating, all the True Yuan has been gathering in my feet, constantly refining my flesh and bones. I feel that these feet are now filled with strength, flawless. If I could refine the rest of my body to this degree, even without taking action, ordinary Martial Artists wouldn’t be able to hurt . The defensive power is too strong."
A glint of insight flashed in Qin Yanyang’s eyes as she said, "Could it be that the direction of our cultivation up to now has been wrong?"
Yang Fei was startled, "Wrong direction? Surely not, we’ve both been Cultivating according to our techniques, how could that be wrong?"
Qin Yanyang shook her head, "It’s not that the thod of Cultivation is wrong, but the direction."
Yang Fei blinked, "Is there a difference?"
Qin Yanyang said, "What if after we cultivate True Qi, we then channel it to refine the flesh and bones throughout the entire body, wouldn’t that achieve the effect of strengthening the body and thus forging a Golden Body?"
Yang Fei’s eyes lit up, "Sounds reasonable."
"Shall we try?" Qin Yanyang asked.
Yang Fei nodded, "Okay, I’ll assist you next, to see if the effect is the sa."
Both were people of action, and they set to work as soon as they agreed.
In the following days, Yang Fei wholeheartedly directed his own True Qi to assist Qin Yanyang in refining the flesh and bones of her hands. At first, there was no effect, but after three days, the True Yuan in the acupoints of Qin Yanyang’s hands began to disperse into the surrounding flesh and bones, continuously nourishing and refining them.
After another week, Qin Yanyang’s arms, from the shoulders down to her palms, had been refined nurous tis, and she distinctly felt so changes.
She clapped her hands together and, to her surprise, a clear sound emitted, without the slightest pain.
Facing the ten-centiter-thick steel plate, she struck out with her palm, and a distinct palm print appeared.
"How does it feel?" asked Yang Fei.
Qin Yanyang replied, "Bones like steel, vigorous blood and qi, and the muscles in both arms have been enhanced like never before, completely different from the past."
She appeared calm, but inside she was incredibly excited.
She and Yang Fei had found another direction in Cultivation.
So people practice to prolong life and seek Immortality, but in Qin Yanyang’s view, the essence of Cultivation is the pursuit of great power, of preparing for battle.
Being able to make the body stronger, to cast a Golden Body, that was the correct direction for Cultivation.
She dared not imagine how powerful their Physical Body Realm would beco if Yang Fei and she refined all their bones and flesh, completing the true Foundation Establishnt.
Yang Fei realized this as well, but at the sa ti, he thought of sothing else, frowning, "If we continue to cultivate this way, our bodies can beco incredibly strong, which brings huge benefits and advantages in actual combat. But have you thought about this, if we encounter soone like Zhang Wenfeng, can we compete with him relying solely on a strong Physical Body Realm?"
Qin Yanyang’s heart chilled, and she looked up at Yang Fei, "Are you saying we also need to cultivate Spiritual Thought?"
"I think that in later stages of cultivation, both the body and Divine Soul are very important. Although Zhang Wenfeng has entered the Divine Travel Realm, he couldn’t kill
with his Divine Thought. If my Physical Body Realm is stronger than his, in the end, he will only be slain by . Conversely, if I don’t possess a strong Divine Soul Thought, even if I have a Golden Body Immortal and an undying Body, I would beco an idiot in the face of Zhang Wenfeng’s strong Divine Thought attack, my spirit would collapse and my Sea of Consciousness would shatter," said Yang Fei.
Qin Yanyang nodded repeatedly, "You’re right, I agree with your view. Therefore, in our subsequent cultivation, we shouldn’t just increase the amount of True Yuan, we must also refine and strengthen our bodies. At the sa ti, we must pay attention to the cultivation of spiritual thoughts. But how to cultivate spiritual power? I’ve pondered this question for a long ti but have never found an answer. It’s not just a problem for , but for all Martial Arts cultivators, they only cultivate their bodies and inner energy, yet they can’t find a way to strengthen spiritual power."
"ditation and opening the Sea of Consciousness are the ways. Only by opening the Sea of Consciousness can one truly step into the Divine Travel Realm," Yang Fei said.
Qin Yanyang, who had read extensively ancient texts, was also familiar with this, "Ancients called the Sea of Consciousness as the Consciousness Sea, believing that every person’s thoughts and consciousness originate from the Sea of Consciousness. The degree to which each person’s Sea of Consciousness is opened varies. Those with a low degree of opening are considered foolish, known as having unawakened spiritual wisdom. Those with a higher degree can absorb information faster and in greater amounts when learning."
Yang Fei said, "To put it simply, it’s like the degree of brain developnt varies, so does a person’s intelligence."
"Pretty much. According to so ancient texts, humans can open the Sea of Consciousness artificially. Once one masters the thod, they can continuously expand the Sea of Consciousness space, making consciousness thought increasingly stronger. This person’s spiritual power will also continuously be strengthened. The Taoist’s Immortal Divine Soul ans that the spiritual thought is strong; consciousness forms a Spiritual Body and can even exist independently of the Body—this is also a kind of Immortality Technique," Qin Yanyang said.
"Consciousness Immortal, Divine Soul undying, naturally achieves Immortality," Yang Fei nodded. "But if one no longer has their own Body and only consciousness survives, it’s not truly Immortality, because without the Body one is no longer human, losing the aning of human life."
Qin Yanyang smiled slightly, "We’re discussing cultivation, how did we get to the aning of life?"
Yang Fei said with a smile, "We are still young, life has just begun not so long ago. Immortality is too far away for us, and not sothing we particularly crave. In contrast, the aning of life is more important to us."
Qin Yanyang nodded, "You’re not wrong in saying that."
Yang Fei continued, "After my master passed on the Cultivation Technique to , he also gave
a set of ditation techniques. I will teach it to you. If you ditate diligently, you might find the breakthrough to the Divine Travel Realm sooner."
Qin Yanyang looked at him sowhat moved, "Does your master allow you to share such Taoist Secret Skills with others?"
Yang Fei grinned, "If it were Sun Lei, I would have to ask my master for permission after seeing him. But you are my wife, and we share everything. Besides, the Cultivation Technique you practice was also passed to you by your grandfather from my master, so you are also a Taoist Disciple; there’s no need to worry about it," he said.
Qin Yanyang said so, but in her heart, she was very interested in that ditation Technique.
Since she entered the Innate Realm, she had been pondering over the Divine Travel Realm but had not found the entry point.
However, as she had entered the Innate Realm not too long ago, she hadn’t dwelled on it, thinking it was because her own Realm was not solid enough.
Now that Yang Fei had brought up the cultivation of the Divine Soul, hope rose within her.
Cultivating the body and cultivating the Divine are two different matters.
Perhaps the Divine Travel Realm does not have to wait until after the Innate Realm to be entered.
Isn’t Yang Fei’s Divine Soul strong, unafraid of Zhang Wenfeng’s Divine Thought attacks?
Thinking of Yang Fei, Qin Yanyang looked up at him and felt a bit speechless inside.
This guy is too exceptional, one can’t view him with the common standards.
But I, Qin Yanyang, am not inferior either. I will not let you outpace
by far. No matter how rugged the road ahead is, I will follow in your footsteps closely, accompanying you on the journey.
