Chapter 169

After all, cultivating the Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture would make the structure of the human body even more complicated. In comparison, the gold obsidian’s structure was much simpler.

“I can see it now. The Crystal Contemplation is to completely pave the way for the cultivation of the Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture. Every stage of cultivation will help the human body with the scripture. If the Crystal Contemplation is to lay the foundation, then the scripture is to show the results.”

Lu Sheng guessed that even the Level 11 expert who created the Crystal Contemplation, Duan Yifeng, had not truly cultivated the Divine Illumination Meditation Scripture. That was because many of the chapters of the scripture were still in the initial stage.

“Perhaps he originally had the chance to cultivate it. Unfortunately, ... the civilization fell and there was not enough time.” Lu Sheng felt regretful. At the same time, he felt lucky.

“The gold obsidian humanoid can be slowly constructed. This stage of cultivation is mainly to increase the purity and strength of the spiritual power. When the gold obsidian humanoid is completely constructed, my spiritual power will usher in a huge qualitative improvement. With that level of sturdiness and toughness, even if I don’t use weapons, I can directly use my spiritual power to attack above my level ...”

Lu Sheng guessed that the chapters of the Crystal Contemplation might include techniques to directly use spiritual power to attack. But the training conditions for this technique were too high. It was not something he could learn at the moment.

After all, if you want to use a sword to kill an enemy, the sword in your hand must first be strong and sharp enough.

Finally, there was the Natural Breathing Technique.

“Everything has a spirit. The energy of the universe and its elements are the same. Feel the rhythm in them, the changes in their emotions, cater to them, tame them, and control them. Find this in the rhythm of the Natural Breathing Technique.”

This was the opening paragraph of the advanced chapter of the Natural Breathing Technique. Lu Sheng could not help but frown. He realized that the further he progressed in the Natural Breathing Technique, the more mysterious and profound the things described in it became. It didn’t even feel like martial arts, but more like immortal cultivation. If it wasn’t for the fact that the earlier stages of the Natural Breathing Technique had helped him a lot, he would have thought that this was some lunatic’s rambling.

The Natural Breathing Technique section focused on the knowledge of the energy of the universe. In the view of the creator, martial arts cultivation was nothing more than a process of humans absorbing the energy of the universe, constantly stimulating their potential, and evolving themselves. The difference in talent was only in how much energy each person absorbed and how fast they were at it.

The purpose of the Natural Breathing Technique’s existence was to make up for the innate gap in this aspect. Among them, the Natural Breathing Technique mentioned a special group — martial artists with talent in elemental control.

Apart from that, the ‘Empty State’ was of great help to the application and cultivation of many martial arts. Lu Sheng looked at it and suddenly couldn’t help but mutter, “Why does it feel so similar to the first form of my Absolute Martial Path ...”

***

However, the Empty State increased one’s perception of the outside world, while the first form increased one’s control over one’s own body. The two were similar but not identical, and they did not conflict with each other.

After reading through the subsequent techniques of the 31 cultivation techniques, Lu Sheng was fascinated by each of them.

“There are about two months between the end of the college entrance examination and the start of university. Just enough time for me to have something to do and not be bored ...” Lu Sheng did not delay and started cultivating one technique after another.

First, it was the Stellar Body Refining Technique. However, before he officially began the cultivation of the Stellar Body Refining Technique, Lu Sheng intended to finish one last thing.

And that was ... complete the third round of tempering internal energy and officially step into Level 5.

“I’m leaving, Mom.”

“Have a good gathering with your friends. If you don’t come back tonight, call home and let us know.”

His mother, Zheng Yufen, instructed Lu Sheng and let him go out.

During the few days before the college entrance examination results were out, the students seemed to have some kind of special privilege. Even if they played all day long, they would not receive any reprimand from their parents.

Lu Sheng acknowledged and walked out of the house. When he passed by the house next door, Lu Sheng saw an average-looking woman in her thirties playing ball with a boy in his teens in the courtyard.

Seeing Lu Sheng, the woman’s expression quickly turned cold. She glanced at him, walked over, and heavily closed the courtyard door in front of Lu Sheng, as if to prevent him from barging in.
