Chapter 118: The Secret of the Innate, Breakthrough Again
"Innate Realm?"
An inexplicable look appeared on the old doctor's face.
"This is a mysterious realm, but you can experience it first."
After saying this, a powerful aura emanated from the old doctor and enveloped Lu Qing.
In an instant, Lu Qing felt as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on him.
The space around him seemed to be frozen, making it difficult for him to move even a finger from head to toe.
Lu Qing's eyes suddenly showed horror.
Although he knew that his master would not hurt him, he was still horrified by the suffocating feeling as if he was in the deep sea.
Fortunately, this momentum was retracted in an instant. The old doctor just let Lu Qing feel the pressure of the innate realm and then withdrew the momentum.
Lu Qing felt relaxed, and the previous feeling of suffocation disappeared.
It was as if the feeling just now was all an illusion.
As for Xiaoyan and Xiaoli, they still looked confused and seemed completely fine. They did not feel the aura from their master at all.
But Lu Qing knew that it was not an illusion, he was indeed unable to move just now.
If the master wanted to kill him, it would only be a matter of thought.
"Master, what was that just now?" Lu Qing asked hurriedly.
Although he has a heritage of the innate realm in his mind.
However, in the inheritance, it is impossible to explain everything about the innate realm in detail.
Li Weitian is not the kind of person who likes to be fussy.
"What I just displayed is the innate pressure that is unique to the Innate Realm." The old doctor explained.
“After a martial artist who has forged the power of his soul breaks through to the innate realm, with the help of the laws of heaven and earth, that power of his soul will quickly grow and develop, becoming quite powerful.”
"This spiritual power, combined with the momentum of the Xiantian realm, will form a unique pressure. Although it cannot directly hurt people, it can shock the warriors' minds. In the acquired realm, it is difficult for those who do not have great concentration and perseverance to get rid of this shock."
“Even if there are warriors who can break free and not be intimidated, under such pressure, their minds will be clouded and their bodies will feel heavy. They will only be able to exert 30% or 40% of their full strength.”
"Innate pressure." Lu Qing muttered to himself.
At this moment, he finally felt a hint of the power of the Innate Realm.
Not to mention the innate body, there is also the mysterious innate true qi, how powerful it is.
This innate pressure alone would give him a natural advantage when facing warriors in the acquired realm.
"That's right. So Ah Qing, if you encounter an innate realm in the future, you must be cautious and never offend that kind of existence by showing off your strength."
The old doctor knew that his disciple had amazing talent and might be able to enter the internal organs realm in no time.
Amazing spiritual talent is often accompanied by strong self-confidence.
He didn't want Lu Qing to encounter someone in the Innate Realm in the future and cause the other party to be disgusted because of his disrespectful attitude.
In that case, no matter how amazing one's talent is, it will be vulnerable in the face of absolute strength.
"Can't we offend Xiantian Realm?" Lu Qing scratched his head after hearing this. "Master, if you had said this a few days ago, it might have been okay, but now it's too late. It seems that I have offended a Xiantian Realm master."
"What do you mean?" The old doctor was surprised.
"A few days ago, I went into the mountains to collect herbs. As a result, I ran into Master Ma who was being hunted in a valley..."
"My disciple guesses that the two villains who were chasing Madam Wei and the others are probably from the force that threatened the Wei family in the county these days. My disciple killed them, but the controller behind that force will not let it go."
Lu Qing recounted in detail how he rescued Ma Gu and Mrs. Wei and her son a few days ago.
Including the killing of the two Tiancang Sect disciples.
The reason why he didn't say anything in the past few days was that his master had not yet made a breakthrough, so it would be useless to say anything.
Secondly, his master was about to make a breakthrough, and he couldn't let his master worry and affect his mood.
Now that his master has finally broken through to the innate realm, he can tell this matter with confidence.
"This..." After listening to Lu Qing's story, the old doctor was silent for a while.
He didn't expect that he had just warned him not to offend someone in the Innate Realm easily, but in the blink of an eye, he said that he had offended someone, and the person was most likely a veteran Innate Realm powerhouse.
But he couldn't say that Lu Qing did anything wrong.
Because he knew that even if he encountered such a thing, he would definitely take action. He would not just watch Ma Gu and Madam Wei and her son being killed.
At most, he would not harm the lives of those two people.
But he also knew the strength of his disciples.
Some time ago, he had just entered the tendons and bones realm.
Facing two such powerful opponents, it was already a miracle to be able to survive.
As for talking about holding back, that's just wishful thinking.
So, for a moment, the old doctor really didn't know what to say.
"Master, did I do something wrong?"
Lu Qing asked somewhat nervously.
The old doctor sighed and said, "You were trying to save people at the time, so what was wrong with that? Encountering this incident can only be attributed to bad luck on my part as a master and disciple, and there is no question of right or wrong."
Thinking that his disciple had actually offended such a powerful being, the old doctor suddenly felt that his breakthrough was not so good anymore.
If he had not made a breakthrough, he would not have known the power of the Innate Realm, and he would not be as worried as he is now.
"Master, you are also in the Innate Realm now. You should not be so afraid of other Innate Realms, right?" Lu Qing asked.
"How can I, your master, compare with other Xiantian Realm masters?" The old doctor said with a wry smile, "I am just a doctor. I am not good at fighting and killing. How can I be the opponent of those Xiantian Realm masters who have been practicing since childhood and have come all the way through fighting?"
"Is it not possible to have the inheritance left by Senior Li Weitian?"
The old doctor paused.
After a moment of silence, he said, "That's the only way. However, the technique that Senior Li Weitian left behind is extremely profound. I don't know if an old man like me can learn it."
"Of course you can. Master, you can cultivate to the state of internal organ perfection with just a health-preserving boxing. Senior Li Weitian's skills will definitely not be difficult for you!" Lu Qing immediately flattered him.
"Don't try to fool me, your master. I know how capable this old man is." The old doctor scolded with a smile.
But at this point, he could only give it a try.
Let’s see if I can find one or two simple skills to learn from the inheritance left by Senior Li Weitian.
They didn't ask to defeat the mysterious Xiantian realm, but only to gain more power so as to save their master and disciple, as well as the villagers in this village.
Seeing that his master was planning to practice the inheritance left by Li Weitian, Lu Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew his master's temperament.
If he wasn't given a little pressure, after the breakthrough, he would probably rather study medicine first and would not think about practicing the skills left by Li Weitian so quickly.
As for whether his master could learn the skills in the jade slip, Lu Qing was not worried at all.
The master was able to deduce such an exquisite internal organ realm technique as the Health-preserving Fist from an incomplete technique without any martial arts master.
And in such a short period of time, he was able to fully comprehend the innate law left by Li Weitian, cultivate the power of his soul, and enter the innate realm.
No matter from which perspective, he can be called an absolute martial arts genius.
It’s just that the master has always been obsessed with medicine and has not been clear about his own talents.
"Master, I know that the innate true qi cultivated by those in the innate realm all has attributes. I wonder what the attributes of Master's innate true qi are?" Lu Qing asked.
"My innate true qi has no attributes yet."
However, what Lu Qing did not expect was that the old doctor shook his head.
Seeing Lu Qing's astonishment, the old doctor smiled.
He knew that although his disciple had acquired many innate skills, he still only had a superficial understanding of many things in the innate realm.
After all, the path of cultivation is extremely mysterious, and there are many things that cannot be understood clearly unless one personally reaches that realm.
To put it bluntly, if you don't reach that level, no matter how much you know, you will not be able to understand it thoroughly.
“There’s nothing hard to understand about this.”
"The human body is mysterious and profound. Except for those who are gifted or born with disabilities, normal people have all five elements in their bodies. They circulate endlessly, which is why they are strong and energetic, free from disease and pain. So how can there be any difference in attributes?"
"As the classics say, the innate Qi attribute of the Xiantian realm is not innate, but is intentionally acquired by the practitioner."
"The innate qi first cultivated in the Xiantian realm has no attributes, just like the sky and the earth when they first opened, a blank and pure space."
"Only in the subsequent practice, the innate true qi in the body can be tainted with attribute aura by the innate true qi of the innate realm warriors according to their own preferences, using the power of the spirit and soul to fuse the true qi, practicing the exercises, and selectively refining the external heaven and earth energy."
After the old doctor was promoted to the Xiantian realm, he had a very clear understanding of many of the cultivation knowledge described in the inheritance jade slips left by Li Weitian.
So he told Lu Qing his understanding.
"Master, what you mean is that after breaking through the Innate Realm, what kind of practice method one chooses to practice is the key to determining the attributes of one's own true Qi?" Lu Qing immediately understood.
"Yes, everything in the world can be divided into the five elements. The Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth is naturally no exception. The key to determining the attributes of one's own true Qi in the Xiantian Realm is what kind of Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth one chooses to refine." The old doctor nodded.
When the power of his soul jumped out of the Baihui acupoint and sensed the colorful vital energy between heaven and earth, the old doctor's understanding of the vital energy of heaven and earth became much deeper.
"Is it possible to refine the five elements of vital energy together, so that my true qi can also gather the five elements?" Lu Qing suddenly had an idea.
"In theory, it is possible, but human energy is limited. Refining one kind of vital energy would consume most of the time of cultivation in the Xiantian Realm. How can we have more mental energy to refine more heaven and earth vital energy?"
Lu Qing thought so too.
Greedy is the end of getting nothing, and being too greedy often results in getting nothing.
If it were so easy to refine the five elements simultaneously, then there would be no distinction in attributes among the innate realm techniques in the world.
"Then Master, what kind of skills do you plan to practice?"
Lu Qing knew that among the inheritance left by Li Weitian, there were several innate realm skills.
The properties of each are also different, and I don’t know which one the master will choose to practice.
"I haven't made a decision yet. I need to think about it." The old doctor shook his head.
After staying in the small courtyard halfway up the mountain for a while, Lu Qing asked his master for a lot of insights into the Innate Realm. After learning more about this realm, he took Xiao Li and Xiao Yan away.
The master had just had a breakthrough and needed some time to retreat and digest the insights gained from the breakthrough. He didn't want to disturb him for too long.
However, before leaving, the old doctor also warned Xiao Li not to rely on his invisibility ability and act recklessly in the future.
It turned out that when Xiaoli and Xiaoyan were playing in the yard just now, it used its invisibility ability again to play hide-and-seek with Xiaoyan.
However, the old doctor who had reached the innate realm saw through the mystery of its invisibility ability at a glance.
This also made Lu Qing feel a chill in his heart, knowing that his previous guess was correct.
Xiao Li’s ability to remain invisible cannot hide from the perception of the Innate Realm.
He also knew that although his master seemed to be warning Xiao Li, he was actually advising him not to rely on Xiao Li's invisibility ability to do more dangerous things.
After all, when he talked about rescuing Magu and others, he also mentioned how Wang Qingshan was killed by Xiaoli.
After returning from the courtyard halfway up the mountain, Xiaoli and Xiaoyan began to feel sleepy.
Lu Qing knew that this was the white mist of vital energy that the two little guys absorbed from their master when he broke through.
The white mist of vital energy is condensed from the laws of heaven and earth. It has a very gentle and rich life energy. It is a strange substance that is no less than the spiritual liquid of the earth veins and is extremely beneficial to the human body.
If ordinary people absorb one or two strands of it, they can strengthen their bodies and eliminate illnesses.
What's more, the two little guys absorbed so much.
The reason they feel sleepy is that their bodies are unable to fully digest so much vital energy mist at once, and they can only slowly digest it through sleep.
Even Lu Qing felt at this moment that there was a huge energy stirring in his body, which made him feel a little overwhelmed.
Lu Qing let the two little ones rest on the bed and watched them fall asleep.
Then he came to the yard, started to practice the health-preserving boxing.
After the body moved, the energy transformed from the white mist of vital energy in the body suddenly had a place to go.
It began to move according to Lu Qing's mind, and gradually integrated into his qi, blood, tendons, bones, and deeper levels of his body.
This not only made Lu Qing's body strengthen rapidly again, but also made it more energetic.
This time, Lu Qing practiced for an especially long time.
The health-preserving fist is practiced over and over again.
Practice from the scorching sun until dusk.
If the villagers had not often seen Lu Qing practicing boxing in the yard, they would have suspected that he had gone crazy.
But even so, seeing him boxing for such a long time still made some villagers worried, wondering whether his body could hold on.
Uncle Zhang from next door came out of the house many times and came to Lu Qing's yard, watching him worriedly as he was practicing boxing with complete concentration.
If he hadn't seen that there was nothing unusual on Lu Qing's face, he would probably have interrupted him.
Lu Qing didn't care about these.
He was completely immersed in the practice of health-preserving boxing and was in a wonderful state.
Finally, when the last ray of sunset had set, Lu Qing's whole body shook, and all his muscles and bones suddenly crackled.
