"Just because you have touched the threshold of the ceiling doesn't mean you can become the ceiling of humanity." Li Kengqiang's voice sounded slowly, "In history, there have been many strong people who have reached the peak of the 'Klein' realm, but only a few have been able to cross that threshold and become the ceiling of humanity... Do you know why?"

Lin Qiye and others shook their heads.

"Because the threshold of the ceiling is not something you can cross just by reaching a certain level.

What is the human ceiling?

Only when one breaks through the theoretical limits of human beings and reaches the end of species evolution can one be called the "ceiling". At that level, one has reached the highest peak that the "human" species itself can reach.

Our species and our genes determine that we can only go this far. This is the end point that was determined from the moment humans were born.

Breaking through the human ceiling means that all the potential of our human body has been developed to the limit, including mental and physical."

Li Kengqiang paused, "You must have seen others use 'Ghost Guidance', right?"

“Yes.”

Lin Qiye had not only seen it, he was even a personal user of the Ghost Guidance. In the [Nightfall] team, only he and Shen Qingzhu had experienced the feeling of having their potential drained.

"The function of Ghost and God Guidance is to forcibly stimulate the hidden potential in the human body. The lower the realm, the better the effect after use. For some people who have not awakened the Forbidden Ruins, it can even help them temporarily activate the Forbidden Ruins hidden deep in the body.

But this thing has no effect on the human ceiling, because their own potential has been developed to the limit. "

Cao Yuan spoke thoughtfully:

"So, Brother Gun, are you planning to train us to develop our physical potential?"

The corners of Li Kengqiang's mouth slightly raised, "This is only part of it."

"Anything else?"

"As for the development of your physical potential, I am not worried. As long as you have enough time and enough life and death experience, you will fully develop your potential sooner or later. Ultimately, this thing depends on the accumulation of time and experience... Of course, An Qingyu is an exception." Li Kengqiang specifically excluded An Qingyu.

"Unleashing all of your body's potential is only halfway to the human ceiling. What really determines whether you take that step is here."

Li Kengqiang pointed at his heart.

“The heart is the link between the body and the spirit.

The potential of the body can be developed by external forces, but the brain cannot. The brain is the source of our spiritual power and the most mysterious part of our body. If we want to stimulate its potential, we can only use some special mental states to resonate with the brain, arouse the potential in the body to impact the spirit, and take that step completely...

But this special state of mind is not something you can have just by wanting it. 99% of the peak Kleins are stuck at this level and never reach the ceiling in their lifetime.

We call this stage the ‘heart stage.’”

"'Heart barrier'?"

Lin Qiye muttered to himself.

He knew that it was not easy to become the ceiling of humanity, but it was the first time he heard of the existence of the "heart barrier".

"Then what exactly is this special state of mind?" An Qingyu asked puzzledly.

"This depends on the individual and also on chance." Li Kengqiang thought for a moment, "Do you know that Fan Jin passed the imperial examination?"

"I know." Lin Qiye nodded.

Baili Pangpang scratched his chin suspiciously, "I remember it, I seem to have heard it somewhere..."

"Fan Jin Zhongju" tells the story of a scholar named Fan Jin, who was poor since childhood and hoped to change his fate by taking the imperial examination. He took the exam more than 20 times but failed, and spent half his life in a daze... But suddenly one day, he passed the exam and was extremely ecstatic, and then he went crazy.

This is an example of how changes in mood and emotions can affect the spiritual world. Of course, Fan Jin is just an ordinary person, and I am just giving an example. "

Li Kengqiang raised his fingers and began to count them one by one. "For example, a wealthy man who has been rich for many years suddenly experiences a disaster, and his character changes. He spends all his wealth and lives in seclusion in the mountains to return to nature... In short, extreme joy, extreme sadness, extreme anger, and some sudden enlightenment similar to seeing through the world are all special states of mind.

Whether or not you can have these mental states has a lot to do with your personal experience... Of course, there are exceptions."

Li Kengqiang shrugged as if he had thought of something.

"You all know Zhou Ping, right? As for his [Glass Pure Heart], his state of mind is always kept in the purest and simplest state... Therefore, he does not have a 'heart barrier' at all."

Li Kengqiang's explanation contained a lot of information, and Lin Qiye and others fell into deep thought.

For some reason, Lin Qiye's mind flashed back to the process of the destruction of the [Masked] team that he saw in the Red Moon Fishing Village.

Wang Mian broke through the human ceiling only after he saw his teammates die one after another and fell into extreme sadness and anger... Was his mental barrier broken through at that time?

And the ravings, this guy entered the "boundless" realm in the last century, but after more than 40 years, he still hasn't become the ceiling of humanity, which is probably related to his heart barrier.

"In short, this training is divided into two parts." Li Kengqiang held up two fingers, "One is to stimulate your physical potential, which accounts for a relatively small proportion. The highlight is the other one... to prepare you to break through the 'heart barrier' in the future.

Until the training results satisfy me, no matter what happens, you can't leave here, understand?"

Lin Qiye and the others looked at each other and asked tentatively:

"But Brother Gun, didn't you say that the 'heart barrier' can only be broken through through personal experience and chance? How should we prepare? And... to what extent should we prepare in order to satisfy you?"

"Once I feel satisfied, I will be satisfied naturally." Li Kengqiang waved his hand casually, fully interpreting what nonsense literature is.

Lin Qiye: ...

"Let's start with today's potential training." Li Kengqiang said slowly, "For you now, most of the training methods for physical training are no longer useful, so the simplest and most brutal method is to let you face the fear of death in battle.

Originally, I should have been the one to bring you this fear, but... now we have someone better."

Li Kengqiang smiled slightly and turned to look behind him.

Lin Qiye and the others looked in that direction and saw a handsome figure in a white shirt and holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji, who had stood on the rock without them noticing.

“That’s…” Lin Qiye looked at the unusually young face and felt that it looked familiar.

"Hello." The figure paused.

"I am the third commander-in-chief of the Night Watch of Daxia... My name is Tang Yusheng."
