Yunshan County.

Li Xuan looked at the diligently cultivating Meng Chong. Every day he could sense Meng Chong’s body getting stronger, which left him very satisfied.

“Meng Chong’s body is becoming more and more robust, it will not be long until he temper into a copper body. Achieving a golden body should not be an issue for him.

“However, the Vajra Lustrous Bone will be somewhat challenging.”

When Xu Yan was cultivating, the technique he was taught was after all made up on the spot, without any concrete technique for reference, everything depended on Xu Yan’s own imagination to perfect.

The difficulty of cultivation is naturally higher than that of Meng Chong.

Xu Yan tempered into a Jade Bone only through combatting and slaying the fire-maned wolf, thereby breaking his shackles to temper into a jade bone.

If Meng Chong wants to temper a Vajra Lustrous Bone, he probably also needs to push himself to his limits, breaking his shackles to make it happen.

“Where can we find the fire-maned wolf? In the Endless Mountains?”

Li Xuan fell into deep thought: “We may not necessarily need the fire-maned wolf. What’s needed to break through is shattering the shackles, so…”

He thought of a method.

Perhaps it can help Meng Chong to break the shackles and temper a Vajra Lustrous Bone.

“Can Meng Chong temper into a golden bone within a month? Probably not too far off.”

Li Xuan estimated Meng Chong’s rate of cultivation progress.

“Once Meng Chong starts on the journey of martial arts, I can gain the Vajra Lustrous Bone. Combining the Jade Bone with the Vajra Lustrous Bone, how powerful will it be?”

Thinking about the rewards from the Golden Finger after Meng Chong’s initiation, Li Xuan was filled with anticipation.

In his free time, Shi’er was also diligently cultivating, he had already begun to sense his blood and qi, and was preparing to refine his skin.

“As I thought, cultivating martial arts requires a natural gift. Shi’er’s talent is far inferior to Meng Chong’s and Xu Yan’s.”

Li Xuan observed Shi’er’s speed of cultivation, and couldn’t help but sigh.

Even if martial arts were widely known, the number of successful initiates would not be high. However, with more people practicing martial arts, the base is larger, so the number of successful initiates may not be too few.

Suddenly!

A golden light emerged.

“Your disciple Xu Yan has achieved great success in the Blood and Qi Realm, doubling your Blood and Qi!”

Boom!

The blood and qi in the body surged and doubled instantly.

Li Xuan was overjoyed. Xu Yan had already achieved great success in the realm of blood and qi, and it wouldn’t be long until he reached perfection.

In that case, the next step would be breaking into the Innate Realm.

He had made up the second realm of his martial arts journey – the Innate Realm. This is the first realm where one breaks away from the worldly constraints, taking flight through controlling qi, traveling hundreds of miles in an instant!

This is the truly formidable aura of a martial arts powerhouse!

While the Blood and Qi Realm allows you to soar, it is not like flying freely through the air, these two are completely different things.

“Ever since I took in new disciples, the feedback from the Golden Finger has started mentioning the names of the disciples.”

Li Xuan noticed the change in the feedback from the Golden Finger.

“Can Xu Yan perfect his Blood and Qi within a month?”

Li Xuan fell into thought.

Given Xu Yan’s cultivation speed, he should be able to achieve perfection in the Blood and Qi within the month.

I wonder if he’ll be able to comprehend the technique of the Innate Realm.

“I hope you succeed, my disciple. Don’t disappoint your master!”

Li Xuan had high expectations for Xu Yan.

“Your disciple Xu Yan has successfully comprehended the Innate Realm cultivation technique you devised. You have broken through to the Innate Realm.”

Suddenly, a golden light emerged.

At that moment, Li Xuan could feel the blood and qi in his body condensing into Innate True Qi.

Boom, boom, boom…

It was as though there were thunderclaps echoing within his body, a mysterious feeling enveloped him, as if he had connected with the world, feeling the existence of nature’s spiritual energy.

The bridge to the universe had been established!

Boom!

Li Xuan guided nature’s spiritual energy into his body, creating a turmoil in his body, and opened up his energy field.

At this time, Li Xuan was completely immersed in the intricacy of the breakthrough.

The Innate Realm Cultivation Technique appeared in his mind – what an incredible mystery it was.

As nature’s spiritual energy entered his body, his massive vital energy was refined into Innate True Qi, and his body underwent a transformation. He seemed to have transcended the mundane world, shedding all impurities.

His bones gleamed brilliantly, and his body became pure and flawless, untouched by any worldly filth.

Li Xuan broke through to the Innate Realm, and his body underwent a wonderful transformation. Nature’s spiritual energy flowed into his body, causing Innate True Qi to continually surge out.

At the moment when his connection with the world became unblocked, it was as if he had connected with the universe, sensed the existence of nature’s spiritual energy, and guided it into his body.

He opened up his energy field and refined it into Innate True Qi.

The body underwent transformation, the bones blossomed brilliantly, and the Innate was flawless!

The worldly filth seemed to have been cleansed at this moment, reverting to its Innate state.

Li Xuan was still sitting in his chair, as if nothing had happened. There was no sign of a breakthrough.

Only Li Xuan knew that at this moment, he had crossed a chasm and stepped into the Innate Realm!

“So this is what Innate is!”

Li Xuan felt his own state, and his heart was filled with excitement!

Such a good disciple!

He actually comprehended the Innate Realm Cultivation Technique in advance, and the Golden Finger directly reflected his Innate Realm’s strength!

Therefore, even if Xu Yan does not break through to the Innate Realm, as long as he gains insight in advance, the Golden Finger will also reflect the gains.

As Xu Yan has gained insight into the cultivation technique, it means that his breakthrough into Innate is a sure thing.

Li Xuan guided nature’s spiritual energy into his body, feeling the storm-like power coming through the connection with the world. His heart was filled with excitement, but also some doubts.

Why does it feel like the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is not gentle enough?

If it wasn’t for the connection to the universe, I probably wouldn’t be able to accommodate the spiritual energy into my body.

“The spiritual energy can enhance a person’s strength. It’s a strong energy. It’s normal for it to not be gentle.”

Didn’t Li Xuan feel that the spiritual energy was not gentle enough? It wasn’t strange at all?

He did not delve further into this issue.

As long as there is spiritual energy and he can continue to cultivate, he can continue to become stronger.

Whether it is gentle or not, it does not matter, it won’t cause harm.

“Having reached the Innate Realm, I can say that I am no longer of the mortal realm.”

“As long as there is spiritual energy from heaven and earth, I can survive without eating or drinking.”

Li Xuan’s heart was stirred. This was only the second realm of his Martial Arts, and it was already so powerful.

People in the Innate Realm could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and didn’t need to eat.

“How long can someone in the Innate Realm live? How long is their lifespan?”

Li Xuan suddenly fell into contemplation. Practicing Martial Arts naturally results in a lifespan far beyond that of ordinary people.

Just being in the vital energy realm already makes one’s lifespan extraordinary.

But how long one could live was not known.

“The lifespan of the vital energy realm should not be short, especially after refining the jade bones… Let me think.”

Li Xuan, with his eyes half-closed and his mind clear, silently calculated the changes in the vital energy realm and the changes after the breakthrough to the Innate Realm to estimate the limit of life.

“After completing organ refining, the organs are strengthened, vitality is enhanced, and lifespan is much longer than ordinary people… So, generally, the lifespan in the vital energy realm should be two to three hundred years.”

“If you refine the gold bones, you live longer, at least three hundred years. The jade bones, though, five hundred years?”

Li Xuan was suddenly shocked. Had he calculated it wrong? If what he thought was true, then just at the entrance to Martial Arts, one can live such a long life?

“I calculated it based on the changes in the body and the depletion time of vital energy after entering Martial Arts. I shouldn’t be too far off. So, the lifespan of the Innate Realm is over a thousand years?”

“I created this Martial Arts realm to be pretty amazing, the second Martial Arts realm can live for over a thousand years.”

Li Xuan was excited. At this moment, he had a feeling that the lifespan division of Martial Arts has been determined!

He calculated correctly!

Could it be that this intuition came from the feedback of the Golden Finger?
