Chapter 974 History Has Only One Winner
The principle of breaking through the first level is actually no different in essence from all previous level upgrades. It is all a process of expanding the Dantian.
Use internal force to impact the Dantian wall, making the Qi Sea further larger and thus completing the breakthrough.
Of course, as your realm improves, your Dantian will become more stable, so the difficulty will increase accordingly.
This is why the path of spiritual practice becomes more difficult as you move higher.
If the "impact force" required to move from the ninth grade to the eighth grade is like moving a stone.
Then going from the third grade to the second grade is basically the same as "moving mountains".
With this thought, one can imagine how terrifying the "power" required to break through the first level would be.
But you have to know that this is not the most difficult thing, nor is it the most fundamental reason why only two first-grade people have been born in human history for thousands of years.
After all, as the old man said, mountains can be moved and metal and stone can be carved. As long as you keep trying, you will normally succeed one day.
But the same is not true for breaking through to the first level.
Because it only has one chance.
Just as Old Zhang said before, breaking through the first level is different from breaking through other levels. If you fail, you can try again.
In the process of breaking through the first level, if you fail, the result will be falling to the bottom and directly back to the ninth level.
This undoubtedly means that a practitioner who has practiced hard for most of his life and finally reached the pinnacle of humanity will become completely useless.
The chances of success are extremely slim, and the cost of failure is extremely high.
In this case, even if there is a desire to reach a higher level in one’s heart, most people do not dare to try it easily.
Even an organization like Kuilong, which was created to explore ways to break through, will wait until the "experimental subject" is close to the deadline before allowing it to attempt a breakthrough, in order to minimize the cost of failure.
There are only a handful of warriors who can reach the peak of the second rank, and most of these people don't dare to try . So, objectively speaking, the most fundamental reason why humans have never been able to break through the shackles of the first rank is here.
It is everyone's instinct to "seek benefits and avoid harm" and the rationality after "weighing the pros and cons".
This is actually the real "shackles" of the first-grade realm.
And it is precisely because of this that Qin Zhengqiu's "successful case" becomes particularly important.
Everyone couldn't wait to know what this method of breaking through the realm that had already been successful once was.
Then, the "Moon-picking Sword" that Qin Zhengqiu shouted that night naturally became the focus.
In just half a month, almost all the martial arts with a similar name to "Tiao Yue Sword" in the world were thoroughly investigated, and any possible clues were found.
Countless spies came from all over the country to Dashu, Daning, Dahan, and Xinfeng, and the pieces of intelligence converged into a vague outline.
The names of Old Zhang, Wei Changtian, Qin Zhengqiu, Lu Hongji, and Chu Xianping, all of whom had had interactions with the Tiaoyue Sword, appeared in the ears of the leaders of various forces.
If we exclude those who have died, the only three people left who must know the truth about the Tiao Yue Sword are Qin, Wei and Chu.
Qin Zhengqiu is already a first-rank official and is alone, so it is difficult to find his whereabouts. Even if you find him, you may not be able to do anything to him.
There has been no news of Chu Xianping since he lost the "bet" to Wei Changtian in Yongding City, and no one has been able to find where he is yet.
Therefore, if we want to find out the truth about the Moon-Picking Sword, it seems that we can only start from Wei Changtian, who has not yet "disappeared", to find out the secret of breaking through the first level.
Plus the destiny of at least three Sons of Heaven.
If you were to ask who has the most famous name in the world today, it would definitely be Wei Changtian.
When a person is in the spotlight, everything he has done will no longer be a secret.
Even though Wei Xianzhi and others had tried their best to hide, Wei Changtian's past "feats" were still thoroughly investigated.
Only then did people realize that there were more than just the two mysteries surrounding this "living devil".
Whether it's a sixth-grade skill that can kill a second-grade skill with one move, or a scabbard with the power of space and a martial art that can control thousands of blades.
Even Xiao Feng's life was dug up.
If it were in his previous life, Wei Changtian might have cried out that his "privacy" had been greatly violated.
But in this world, he had no choice.
He even seemed to know nothing about it. No matter how turbulent the situation was outside, he could still sit in the car and travel safely. Apart from eating and sleeping, the only thing he did every day was to tell Yang Liushi and Li Zimu the story of the Seven Kingdoms' Struggle for Supremacy.
And just one day before the Tengu Army arrived at Fengyuan City, when he uttered the last sentence "At this point, Qin destroyed Qi and unified the world", the story was finally over.
"Husband."
In the carriage, Yang Liushi had a complicated expression as she looked at the smiling Wei Changtian.
The stories of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are naturally exciting, but the reason why she reacted in this way was mainly because she vaguely heard a different meaning in them.
"And then?"
After adjusting her mood, Yang Liushi asked softly, "What happened after Qin unified the seven kingdoms?"
"The wheels will have the same track, the writing system will have the same script, the customs will have the same customs, the land will have the same area, the weights will have the same scales, and the currency will have the same shape."
Wei Changtian answered very simply: "Then it perished."
"Really? How long did the Qin Dynasty exist?"
"Fourteen years."
“Is it so short?”
Yang Liushi opened her mouth and asked, "How long did it take the Qin Dynasty to unify the seven kingdoms?"
"Fifteen years, exactly one year longer than it has existed."
Wei Changtian smiled and shook his head: "How is it, is it a bit like fate playing tricks on me?"
"Um"
Yang Liushi nodded slightly, her mind full of thoughts, and she even forgot that this was just a story "fabricated" by Wei Changtian. She just felt as if there really was such a magnificent and sad history.
Outside the car, the rumbling sound of troops marching could be clearly heard, and the afternoon breeze had gradually brought some coolness.
Late summer has gone and early autumn is approaching.
On the skyline, the outline of Fengyuan City seems to be faintly visible, and the large tracts of farmland on both sides of the official road have gradually turned golden.
The story was told, the questions were asked, and the carriage fell into silence.
Wei Changtian looked out the window at the vast fields outside, and then suddenly said at a certain moment: "Zi Mu, go tell them that if they want to know about the Tiaoyue Sword, they should come to Fengyuan Palace to see me tomorrow night."
“.”
Li Zimu was stunned for a moment when he suddenly raised his head.
She naturally knew who "they" referred to, which was why she was surprised.
But in the end, Li Zimu didn't ask anything. He just waited for the carriage to stop slowly and then got off.
"Husband, you."
On the other side, Yang Liushi did not react as quickly as Li Zimu. It was not until then that she finally understood what Wei Changtian was going to do. She couldn't help but widen her eyes for a moment.
"H-Have you thought it through?"
"Of course I've thought about it."
Wei Changtian smiled, his tone calm.
"Since it has come to this, let's just have a big one together."
"I want to see who will have the last laugh."
