Chapter 137 Innate Path

  Chen Lie was wary of war, and Qin Shuang's gains were absolutely not limited to the swordsmanship he learned from Lie Yan.

  The greatest gain is experience, and the battle experience between innate and acquired, although only one, fully recognizes the subtlety of innate combat.

  Different from the showdown of yesterday, yet it is also a continuation of the showdown of yesterday.

  This battle gave Qin Wusuo a strong sense of confidence, a kind that was unparalleled and different from any other time. This confidence came from defeating a powerful innate opponent.

  This battle also made Qin Wusuo understand the power of a congenital effect. If he hadn't reached the congenital level, what would have happened to the fate of the Qin royal family when Li Wuji came this time?

  Even if there are nine true martial arts masters in the family, they may still be unable to stop Lü Wuji from massacring the entire household.

  One Innate is more powerful than ten Ninth-Order True Martial Realm cultivators!

  Qin Wushuang had this realization and pondered in her heart. Among the entire Qin royal family, the most likely to become a Xiantian was naturally her brother-in-law, Da Qiongming.

  Although Father had practiced the "Yi Jin Jing" to wash his marrow and cut his hair, after all, his innate talent was not as good as Da Xue Ming's, and his physical function was also not as good as Da Xue Ming's when he was young.

  If one had to cultivate a sworn brother, among close relatives, only sister's husband Da Xue Ming would be the most suitable.

  However, this is just a plan. At present, Da Xi Ming's cultivation is only about to be promoted to the sixth rank of Zhenwu Realm, and it is still far from the peak of the ninth rank.

  Not to mention breaking through the pass, suddenly lifting nine sections of crazy promotion. Promoting Xiantian.

  This is a long-term plan!

  Once Qin Shi reappears with a congenital one, he can go out and make a fortune with more peace of mind, and the fate of the Qin royal family will not be so precarious.

  The extermination of Li Wuji had some impact on the wedding of Qin Xiu and Da Yumi. However, the Purple Robe Great Sage apparently knew how to adjust the atmosphere, calling the killing of a congenital master a "happy event", a sign of great auspiciousness.

  The guests all welcomed this time, and everyone's mood was no longer hesitant, but followed the Qin royal family with determination.

  Whether it's Ximen or Nangong, they both fully recognize that the rise of Tianxi Wang is now unstoppable!

  Now Chiaki Ou has invited the wolf into his home, colluding with external enemies against the Qin family, and has already become a prisoner of the Qin family. I believe the day of his downfall is not far off.

  Two witnesses have seen the crimes of King Akagi, and even if it were the Emperor of Hyakoku, he might not be able to plead for mercy. Moreover, the Emperor of Hyakoku may not necessarily have a good impression of King Akagi, who is ambitious and domineering. Now that King Akagi has been captured, perhaps this is exactly what the Emperor wants.

  The wedding was held as scheduled, and guests from all sides came to offer their congratulations and gifts. For a time, the host and guest were both happy, as if what had happened before had never occurred.

  As for the absence of Akakawa ō in the seating arrangement, although the guests felt slightly uncomfortable, the nobles who had been bullied by Akakawa ō before couldn't help but feel a sense of schadenfreude and relief. The only thing that was lacking was the opportunity to openly despise Akakawa ō's face and kick him while he was down.

  The wedding banquet is over, and the guests begin to leave.

  The Lord of Martial Arts summoned Qin Wushuang, apparently with some doubts in his mind.

  Qin Wushuang knew that Wu Sheng must have something to say, and it just so happened that he also had a lot of questions to ask Wu Sheng.

  Two innate experts floated out of the door and walked out of the Qin family manor.

  The Martial Saint smiled and said: "How about we take a walk in a secluded place? If the two of us were to walk out onto the street, it might not be very convenient."

  Indeed, if two congenital masters join forces, it would be strange if they didn't cause a sensation.

  Qin Wushuang nodded: "I have a place to go."

  As he spoke, he led Wu Sheng towards Mount Taihang. As they entered the mountain, Wu Sheng looked around in surprise and asked, "Is this where you usually practice?"

  "Hmm, what does Brother Qiu think?" Qin Wushuang didn't pretend to be polite either. Since the Martial Saint wanted him to address him in this way and had made it clear that this was an unwritten rule among the Innate Experts, he naturally wouldn't mind.

  Titles are just a formality, respect is not measured by a single title.

  The Martial Saint nodded in praise: "Not bad, I didn't expect that this Great Cyan Mountain would also have its own unique charm. As I stroll along the mountain path, I feel a sense of returning home. It's not much different from my own Martial Saint Mountain. Hehe, the land is blessed with talented people, indeed it is."

  Qin Wushuang knew that Wu Sheng was being polite, and smiled slightly.

  The Martial Saint hesitated for a moment before asking, "Wu Shuang, I'm really curious, how did you become a Xiantian? That day on Mount Wu Sheng, I could clearly sense that you were only at the 9th stage of the True Martial Realm, with no signs of becoming a Xiantian. Zi Pao's understanding of the Xiantian way is far superior to yours. Why has he been stuck in a rut, while you suddenly broke through to become a Xiantian?"

  This question, Qin Wushuang had expected that Lord Wu Sheng would ask. In fact, probably everyone in their hearts has this one question.

  Qin Wushuang would not temporarily reveal the mysterious experience in that cave, after all, he had only browsed around it once, and there were too many unknown questions inside waiting for him to explore.

  He didn't want to reveal this secret so early.

  "Qiu older brother, to be honest, how to enter the innate, I also have some hindsight. It wasn't until a few days ago that I suddenly realized my attack power had increased dramatically. Trying to attack from a distance, I was able to hit flying bats tens of meters away. Only then did I realize how to break through. I remember one day while practicing in the mountains, I suddenly experienced an extraordinary encounter like a dream,"

  At that time, he didn't hide it either, and simply described the experience of that time, without mentioning the five-colored strange light, nor the cave in the cliff wall, nor the absorbing force produced by the earth's core.

  As for the location, it is even more brief and concise, just a passing mention.

  The Lord of Martial Arts listened and did not suspect anything at all, but only sighed repeatedly.

  "After a long time, he said: 'Wú Shuāng, I've been thinking that you should be a congenital spiritual root! Otherwise, it's absolutely impossible for your good fortune to suddenly open up and enter the congenital realm. If not for the congenital spiritual root, anyone who breaks through to the congenital realm must go through the step of breaking through the pass. No one can be an exception!"

  "Is it congenital spiritual root?" Qin Wushuang was also surprised, this question, is likely to become an eternal mystery. Whether it is congenital spiritual root, can only be explored before entering the innate, now that we have entered the innate, the spiritual root is naturally impossible to detect, and there is no need to detect it.

  "Not bad, it's indeed the innate spiritual root. This is absolutely unmistakable. Postnatal warriors must break through the pass to possibly enter the innate realm. And that special experience you mentioned, obviously wasn't breaking through the pass. The process of breaking through the pass is extremely agonizing, can be described as nine deaths and one life." Lord Wu Sheng was very certain.

  Qin Wusuo didn't care about what kind of innate spiritual root he had, he knew that his ability to enter the innate realm was due to that special experience on that day.

  It suddenly occurred to him that the five-colored strange light was probably because he had practiced "Tianmai Condensing Sword", which triggered the pre-heavenly omen, forming a special resonance.

  This is just Qin Wushuang's guess, and how it actually was will probably remain an eternal mystery.

  "Qiu Ge, so it seems that entering Xiantian is the only way. Are there really only these two paths to take? Is there absolutely no third path?" Qin Wushuang asked thoughtfully.

  It can't be said that there are only two absolute divisions, in the world of the strong, there are always some special encounters, such as a kind of powerful external force. But those are too vague and have no reference value. Normally speaking, it's just these two kinds. Legend has it that above the spiritual martial realm, there exist even more powerful beings and more mysterious realms. Those who possess those realms have the great divine power to turn stones into gold. Think about it, if you were to obtain that kind of strong external force, entering the innate would definitely be effortless.

  The Martial Saint sighed: "Those are all mythical existences. In the realm of Innate Spiritual Martial Arts, no one can rely on their own strength to enlighten others into the Innate. What can be done is only to shorten this time, reduce the risk of entering the Innate, even avoid these risks and lower the difficulty."

  "Oh? What's this about?" Qin Wushuang's interest was piqued.

  "It's very simple, for example, the Dragon and Tiger Body Refining Pill recipe you obtained from Lie Wuji is an external elixir that shortens time, reduces risk, and lowers difficulty. The Martial Saint sighed, "This is also why I wanted to copy it."

  "With the help of elixirs and external forces, shape the physical body's strength, thereby reducing the time spent on physical cultivation. Can one reach a state where their physical body is strong enough to withstand the power of nature?"

  Qin Wushuang gained some understanding after being pointed out by Wu Sheng Da Ren.

  The Martial Saint nodded: "That's right! This Dragon and Tiger Body Refining Pill, if a congenital initial spirit warrior can get one, after refining it, at least 15 to 30 years of physical training time can be reduced! Moreover, when absorbing 20% of the natural power, the load-bearing anti-pressure ability will also increase greatly. The stronger the physical endurance, the smaller the risk of being eroded by the natural spiritual power."

  This principle is not difficult to say, but it's hard to get this kind of congenital elixir.

  Whether it is Dan Fang or the technique of refining Dan, or even the materials for refining Dan, each one can be said to be extremely difficult to obtain.

  Li Wuji, as the eldest disciple of the extremely evil old man, has not collected all the materials for alchemy after so many years.

  The materials he collected were all auxiliary in nature. The main medicine for refining the "Dragon and Tiger Body Refining Pill" was actually lacking.

  "Qiu older brother, if it's a post-heaven martial artist, wanting to break through the initial realm of Xiantian Lingwu, can this Longhu Su Shen Dan do it?"

  The Great Saint's expression turned solemn, and he shook his head hastily: "Absolutely cannot be used! The Pre-Heavenly Boundary is divided into layers, each with extremely strict rules. This Dragon-Tiger Body Tempering Pill can only be taken by those who have reached the initial stage of Pre-Heavenly cultivation; it's tailored specifically for them. Giving it to a Mid-Heavenly cultivator would be useless - the medicinal effect wouldn't be enough! And giving it to a Post-Heavenly 9th-level strong practitioner would be even more disastrous, as the medicinal effect would be too overwhelming, likely causing their blood to boil and their meridians to burst, leading to instant death!"

  "So it seems that the Post-Heaven strongmen want to charge at the Pre-Heaven, wanting to take a shortcut, but they need to make up for it through other elixirs?"

  "This is natural, it's just that the level of Dan Fang is not easy to find! It involves innate, and every object is extremely precious. Especially in our Baiyue country where spiritual power is weak and spiritual objects are scarce, the probability of refining flesh and blood golden elixirs, innate initial spiritual elixirs and other treasures is extremely low. Otherwise, our Baiyue country wouldn't have only one innate for hundreds of years."

  Qin Wushuang heard Wu Sheng's words and felt a slight disappointment in his heart, but he didn't lose hope. At least, in the general direction, he had already grasped some basic knowledge of innate skills. These were precious wealth.
