“Si small, you said your little fairy is interesting. Don't you think we're both attractive?” In Chen Xiangs mind, a charming voice echoed, this voice belonged to Su Meiyao.
Chen Xiang coughed twice, and, with a dry laugh, said, “As long as my wife is beautiful, ha ha. Oh yea! Sister Meiyao, hurry and teach me that heavenly and alchemical practice.”
“You pervert, what are you trying to say?” Su Meiyao spat and said.
“No ...” Chen Xiang grinned while scratching his face, a strange look flashed across his eyes.
In order to prevent Xue Xianxian from being disappointed, Chen Xiang intended to double his efforts and cultivate day and night.
A faint trace of aura suddenly emerged from the invisible ring on Chen Xiang's finger, as Bai Youyou and Su Meiyao appeared in front of him, both wearing noble and elegant purple robes. Chen Xiang guessed that these clothes were already inside the ring.
At this moment, the afternoon sun was extremely scorching, but it seemed that the two beauties were enjoying the disturbing sunlight.
“Spirit Qi around here is really bad, if you don't rely on Dans, then it will be very difficult for you to enter the True Martial Realm!” Su Meiyao, looking at the hot sun, muttered.
Chen Xiang was somewhat confused as to how the two girls could enter and exit the ring at will. In addition, they can also hear sounds through rings.
Chen Xiang entered the small residence with them. The inside was not too big, there was only one hall and four rooms. When compared to the large Chen Family Housing, this was indeed considered quite small.
In the small hall, Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou were sipping spirit tea prepared by Chen Xiang. This was from Chen Xiang's private collection and he was usually reluctant to drink it.
“Spirit Qi is very thin here, if you want to increase your strength quickly, you have to rely on Dans. But before this, you have to cultivate True Qi fire[1]. Since you have the Heavenly Veins of Yin and Yang, this will not be difficult for you.” Su Meiyao said.
Chen Xiang nodded his head, and said, “Please, sister Meiyao, give me advice.”
“Come, I will teach you [Tai Chi Divine Practice] [4] and [Four Symbols Divine Practice].” Su Meiyao said in a charming voice, stroking her hair. The movement was really interesting and charming, and even a little flirtatious. Due to Chen Xiang's almost limitless potential, Su Meiyao wanted his full attention, so he would have a ferocious helper later on.
Su Meiyao's delicate hand covered Chen Xiang's forehead and Chen Xiang's mind was filled, with many texts and spinning runes. Each was vague and elusive on its own, but, with the help of Su Meiyao, he subconsciously mastered it.
Su Meiyao said, “Currently I am using my heavenly senses to transfer cultivation steps to you. I'm not only giving you heavenly practice but also my understanding of them, you just need to follow the steps.
Chen Xiang was surprised, he didn't think Su Meiyao would be able to use “achal heavenly.” In order to train the heavenly senses, one must, at least, be at the 6th level of the Mortal Martial Realm. It was summed up by combining spiritual power and true power and could be described as a very mysterious invisible spiritual power.
“Anything about us should be kept secret and no one knows about us, including your little wife!” Bai Youyou said in a serious and cold tone.
Su Meiyao continued, “I will tell you now that my older sister and I have many enemies, who can destroy you just by pointing at your head. Therefore, you must keep our secrets. Also, we will not get out of this ring unless you are on a really bad track.”
Chen Xiang's heart shuddered, he didn't expect that he was hiding two such dangerous people. He quickly nodded his head before Bai Youyou and Su Meiyao suddenly disappeared, entering his ring (ring).
[Heavenly Tai Chi Exercises] and [Four Symbols Heavenly Training]! Even though it was only a small part of the overall skill, Chen Xiang was still very excited, after all, he did not know anyone who had been given the opportunity to practice heavenly Skills!
In the world of martial arts, skills are divided into general categories Mortal level, Spirit level, Profound level, Earth level, Heavenly level, Sacred level and finally the heavenly level. They are further separated into upper and lower class, dans have the same rank but they also contain middle class as well as lower and upper grades.
Holy level skills were extremely rare, and heavenly level skills were even rarer. The heavenly practice, however, was only practiced by legendary gods who possessed unusually great and unfathomable powers. They are said to be able to summon lightning to attack the earth and even change things that could be considered to act contrary to the will of heaven, such as destroying the structures of space. [Tai Chi Divine Practice] was a foundation building exercise, and was devoted to training the body using Qi cultivation, this was an extremely profound and powerful Heart Law martial art [2].
[Four Symbols heavenly practice] is divided into four parts, namely the Azure Dragon heavenly practice, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Turtle, respectively, and these four heavenly Exercises are auxiliary and especially helpful in increasing the attacks and defenses of other beings. After practicing and understanding them, they can also be used to demonstrate formidable martial techniques.
Chen Xiang arrived in his backyard. Surrounded by lush green trees and breathing fresh air, he could clearly sense the five Spirit Qi elements that existed between heaven and earth.
The General Spiritual Veins were divided according to attributes, but the Yin Heavenly Veins and Yang Chen Xiang represented and contained all five elements of the world, so he could practice all five elements of True Qi.
[The heavenly Tai Chi Training], even though it was a profound Heart Law, Su Meiyao had transferred her understanding of it, so she quickly mastered it. He practiced the Tai Chi Divine Practice], and the Tai Chi Yin Yang diagram in his dantian immediately began to spin. This made the surrounding Spirit Qi violently surge into his body.
To become a formidable martial artist, one had to purify the body, both internally and externally. Chen Xiang was now strengthening his internal body, and his internal body was producing a powerful Qi flow that contained great power, this was known as True Qi[3].
Chen Xiang subconsciously entered a state of cultivation, with Spirit Qi wildly surging into his body. If one were to see this scene, they would not believe their eyes.
The heavenly skills of the Azure Dragon and White Tiger specialized in attacking while the Vermillion Bird heavenly Skills mainly specialized in fire and the Heavenly Skills of the Black Tortoise specialized in defense.
Practicing True Qi up to the Great Success Stage, would create a form in his dantian, and, as Chen Xiang further practiced the [Four Symbols Heavenly Training], he would later be able to create the Azure Dragon, and, as Chen Xiang further practiced the [Four Symbols heavenly practice], he would later be able to create the Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise, the four saint beasts, were in his dantian.
This meant that Chen Xiang himself had to cultivate the same amount as four people. Although it would be extremely tiring, the grasp of his power would be far above others on the same level.
Just as he had just started practicing the Tai Chi Divine Practice], refining Spirit Qi into polished True Qi, a large amount of external Spirit Qi surged into his body! True Qi flowed within the large and small meridians in his body, making his meridians much sturdier.
Morning came and pleasant sunlight entered the backyard and warmed Chen Xiang's body. He opened his eyes, which, for a moment, seemed to shine with electricity, and the wind blew around his body, spreading a white morning mist. His body was covered with a layer of black impurities which meant that he had entered the 4th level of the Mortal Martial Realm!
From level 4 to level 6 Mortal Martial Realm, it was considered the beginning of a new stage. Now that Chen Xiang had reached level 4, the Vein Opening stage! This stage was previously unreachable to him.
Chen Xiang, once again, closed his eyes, attentively paying attention to the Tai Chi Yin and Yang Diagrams, within his dantian, he discovered that there were five True Qi whirlpools, each of them separated into four directions with a clear core! An ordinary person would only have one True Qi whirlpool but he currently had five! One could not even imagine how clear his True Qi was.
With this excited True Qi level, his strength was comparable to someone at level 5 of the Mortal Martial Realm.
“I have finally entered the 4th level of the Mortal Martial Realm, now Father does not need to beg the old man for herbs!” Chen Xiang rejoiced at his breakthrough.
When he thought of Xue Xianxian, who had entered the level 6 of the Mortal Martial Realm at the age of fifteen, he immediately calmed himself down. Thinking about the talented young alchemist of the Yao Family teasing his fiancee, Chen Xiang's heart became firm. He had the desire to cultivate himself even harder, before going to the Yao Family and challenging ‘the so-called’ genius alchemy masters.
“Start processing [Heavenly training Azure Dragon]!” said Su Meiyao. As his heavenly senses were restored to a certain level, he could clearly sense things happening outside.
[Four Symbols heavenly practice], technically, is just one heavenly Practice, but, in practice, is a comprehensive guide to Boxing, palm technique, kicking technique, Qigong, and so on, and many other martial arts. After mastering the heavenly Exercises, the prowess displayed only depended on the individual.
The Azure Dragon was centered around the True Qi of the wood and contained attributes of wind and lighting. Thus, cultivating the [Azure Dragon Divine Exercise] would allow the user to bring out a martial skill that contained the power of wind or lightning.
After taking a bath, Chen Xiang ate quickly before returning to his backyard to cultivate the [Azure Dragon Divine Exercise].
[The heavenly Tai Chi Exercises] and the [Four Symbols heavenly Training] were already integrated into his soul, so no matter how deep and mysterious he was, he could understand it.
After half a day, Chen Xiang operated the True Qi within his body according to the [Blue Dragon Heavenly Training]. Immediately, he saw his body begin to be filled with a gentle blue aura. Sometimes lightning would flash in this blue aura and, from time to time, gusts of wind blew from Chen Xiang's body.
Chen Xiang had now comprehended how to release the lighting and wind power emanating from the Wood-circumcised True Qi. However, to him, this level was not enough, he wanted to be able to turn Wood True Qi into a terrifying wind and light to use with the other martial skills of the [Azure Dragon Divine Exercise].
Chen Xiang made True Wood Qi, within his body, flow into his meridians. Rotating through his body, over and over again, True Qi moved erratically, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. Sometimes it is similar to a large river, but at other times, it flows gently, like a small mountain stream.
