What is the process of martial arts?
Before the system awakened, Shen Qian always believed that what was recorded in the textbooks was the standard answer.
Polishing the body, exercising strength, and dredging the meridians, this is the beginning of martial arts.
However, from a small number of people, Shen Qian learned about the existence of "Kai Qian".
It seems that from that time on, martial arts began to have "forks in the road."
Most of them are ordinary people. They strengthen their Qi and blood step by step, hoping that one day their physical state will break through the critical point, so that they can attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their bodies, gather their vitality, and become novice warriors.
From a beginning warrior to an advanced warrior, it is just a matter of continuing to polish one's body while continuing to strengthen one's vitality.
However, there is actually an extremely cruel truth hidden in this.
"Our human race is born with shackles. If we don't awaken, we will never be able to become mountains and seas in our lifetime."
In the darkness, the familiar yet unfamiliar voice sighed.
From the perspective of King Yan Ling, Shen Qian heard these words clearly.
His body trembled and he suddenly woke up.
Is enlightenment the prerequisite for success in mountains and seas?
In an instant, Shen Qian thought about many things.
No wonder there is no textbook that clearly explains how to become a mountain and sea warrior.
Shen Qian never thought there was any problem with this matter because he had already joined the big boss's sect. At this moment, he thought carefully about "seeking Tao" and "asking", and about the existence of "Daohai"...
Didn't he learn all of this through his apprenticeship?
However, enlightenment is an extremely dangerous thing. If you are not talented enough, this is a narrow escape process.
Therefore, textbooks will not teach "enlightenment". There is an invisible filter, and only a small number of geniuses can access this threshold.
Ding Yi, Wang Shuo...
Those geniuses who once shone for a while in compulsory education eventually gained enlightenment through various channels.
In other words, the people who can achieve mountains and seas are already destined.
If Shen Qian hadn't inadvertently learned about the existence of extraordinary quasi-warriors from Old Man Hu, he would have foolishly broken through to become a novice warrior, and would never have the chance to reach the realm of mountains and seas in this life.
No, that's not right...
Even if what happened that year had happened, Hu Feiwei, who was in low spirits, chose to return to Jingcheng. With his level of cultivation, how could he really be reduced to working as a security guard in a dilapidated community?
Old Man Hu said he couldn't even afford the money to buy a proper cemetery.
Shanhai's monthly allowance starting at RMB 100,000 was eaten by a dog?
Shen Qian recalled that it was just on the eve of his breakthrough as a warrior that it happened that Uncle Hu told him about the existence of "extraordinary", so he had the idea to pursue the enlightenment.
At least the system at that time did not have the concept of "enlightenment".
Shen Qian almost took the wrong path.
The more Shen Qian thought about it, the more frightened he became.
There seems to be an invisible big hand behind this, arranging everything in the dark.
The man in white?
still……
At this moment, Shen Qian really wanted to find Old Man Hu immediately and ask for the truth behind it.
Boom!
The sudden loud noise woke up Shen Qian, who was filled with distracting thoughts. He looked at King Yan Ling floating in the air.
The dark sky cracked open, and the Dao Sea that encompassed everything in the world descended. King Yan Ling's aura stirred, and her spiritual core emerged from the top of her head with a golden glow.
Shen Qian knew in his heart that this was the process of King Yan Ling breaking through the mountains and seas, so he quickly took a closer look.
Sure enough, he was not the most unique one. King Yan Ling had also gathered his spiritual core before he officially broke through the mountains and seas, and he looked far more rounded than Shen Qian.
Under the reflection of Daohai's light at this moment, one could vaguely see nine stars shining on King Yan Ling's body, forming a mysterious pattern.
"Nine orifices!"
Shen Qian's eyes narrowed.
As one of the first generation Nine Kings, it is normal for King Yanling to be the one who opened the Nine Apertures.
But at this moment, Shen Qian felt a little weird in his heart.
Because in his eyes, the feeling given to him by the Nine Apertures was so complete, that is, a kind of perfection without any flaws.
In this case... what does a body with ten orifices count?
Shen Qian was inexplicably confused.
"Illusion."
Two meaningful words suddenly echoed in Shen Qian's ears.
But when Shen Qian turned his head, there was no sound in the darkness, it was like an illusion.
He couldn't tell for a moment whether this was meant for him or King Yan Ling.
"My way is called 'stealing the law'. Wherever I go, the rules will work for me!"
In the sea of dao, King Yan Ling's long hair was flying, and his already beautiful cheeks became more and more sacred and inviolable.
Following her sonorous words, the phantoms of a avenue that no one had ever walked began to gather at the feet of King Yan Ling.
The road is five feet high!
Except for Shen Qian himself, this is almost the highest "Tao" he has ever seen.
The method of stealing magic is very much in line with King Yan Ling's magic.
In fact, King Yan Ling's "Tao" is quite similar to Shen Qian's "Tao".
It's just that King Yan Ling's "Tao" is to turn rules into his own use, while Shen Qian's Lord of Ten Thousand Tao excludes the existence of all other "Tao".
"..."
King Yan Ling, who had broken through the mountains and seas, had shining eyes and called out into the darkness.
But her words were blocked again. Shen Qian didn't know what she shouted, but he could only guess that it seemed to be two words.
"Ling'er, are you still unwilling to call me teacher?"
In the darkness, the voice sounded again, but it was somewhat mixed with a hint of helplessness.
Shen Qian, who was watching, couldn't help but be surprised.
He is now certain that the relationship between the mysterious figure in the darkness and King Yan Ling is that of teaching and being taught. This can be seen from the fact that the mysterious figure broke through the mountains and seas protecting the road for King Yan Ling.
But now it seems that King Yan Ling is unwilling to admit their master-disciple relationship, which is really strange.
Shen Qian also speculated whether the mysterious man in the darkness might be the man in white, but he was not sure yet.
King Yanling just lowered his head slightly and bit his lip, but did not answer the mysterious man's question.
"Qi Ling..."
At this time, a shout came from the distance, and then in Shen Qian's sight, a burly young man ran over with a face full of joy, "You succeeded, right?"
Shen Qian stared at this young man in surprise, and it turned out to be Uncle Pingyang in his youth.
Qi Ling should be King Yan Ling's real name, and these two people are indeed old acquaintances.
"Yes." Facing Uncle Pingyang, King Yan Ling retracted his gaze from the darkness and nodded lightly.
"Who were you talking to just now? I seemed to hear..."
The young Uncle Pingyang looked around in confusion.
"nothing……"
King Yan Ling shook his head, and just after saying a few words, the figures of the two people in front of him suddenly began to break, which made Shen Qian, who was eating melon, a little regretful.
Obviously, as King Yan Ling broke through the mountains and seas, this period of memory also ended.
Immediately afterwards, many images appeared one after another in the dark space.
Shen Qian looked at them one by one and found that these were the process of King Yan Ling's breakthrough in the mountains and seas.
From the first level of mountains and seas to the ninth level of mountains and seas, from the first to the seventh level of spiritual power, King Yan Ling showed his "Tao" unreservedly in the memory fragments sealed by the Tao Fruit.
Unfortunately, the mysterious figure never appeared again.
But Shen Qian, who watched all the way, still gained a lot.
After all, this is the whole process of a prince breaking through from the mountains and seas.
Although Mr. Shen is still in the illusory space formed by the Tao Fruit, his "Tao" that has been stagnant for a long time has entered a process of crazy growth.
If you look at it from the perspective of the Goddess of Will in the Vientiane Tower at this moment, you will find that Shen Qian, who is sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, has a straight projection of the avenue above his head.
The "Tao" surrounded by endless totems seems like the Dao Sea itself. Wind, thunder, water, fire, swords, guns, swords and halberds... all the elements that can be found in the Dao Sea can be found on Shen Qian's "Tao".
Anyone who sees this scene must be extremely horrified.
At this time, the road, which was originally about nine feet high, was growing upward like a vine, inch by inch, reaching ten feet in the blink of an eye, and then eleven feet...
Shen Qian followed the Yanling King he saw in his consciousness, bypassed all detours, and continued to advance towards the second level of mountains and seas at a speed that no one could imagine.
King Yanling looked at the heaven and the earth, and he also looked at the heaven and the earth.
King Yanling meditated on the sun and moon, and he also meditated on the sun and moon.
King Yan Ling stood on the sea and felt the wind and waves, and he also rode on the waves...
King Yan Ling wanted to control everything, while Shen Qian suppressed everything. Invisibly, the "Tao" between the two of them coincided with each other in a certain way, which directly gave Shen Qian the greatest improvement.
There seemed to be no concept of time in the space of consciousness, and even Shen Qian didn't know how much time had passed.
When King Yan Ling suddenly stopped on top of a mountain, Shen Qian also stopped.
The fragrance floated, and the blowing mountain breeze made King Yan Ling's long skirt stick tightly to her curvy body. Looking at King Yan Ling's side face looking up at the starry sky at close range, Shen Qian seemed to have a premonition of something.
At this time, the energy in King Yan Ling's body had reached a certain limit, and her mental power was as bright as the sun, making Shen Qian unable to look directly at her.
Eight forbidden!
King Yan Ling's mental power broke through the eight forbidden areas, but he still couldn't find an opportunity to break through the nine forbidden areas. She couldn't wait any longer.
If she doesn't break into the prince, her "Tao" that has reached its limit will come back to bite her and completely collapse.
boom!
The sea of Dao descended again, and King Yan Ling stepped forward along the "Tao" he had created.
Shen Qian hurriedly followed, not daring to miss any detail.
One foot, two feet, five feet, ten feet...
King Yan Ling walked faster and faster until he transcended the Dao Sea.
At her feet, the "Tao" that was more than forty feet high turned into a jade platform in the shape of a palm to hold her up, surrounded by the gray mist.
After King Yan Ling transcended the Dao Sea, the gray mist enveloped her, her body began to transform, and her life levels began to jump.
Shen Qian watched intently.
Up to this point, there was no difference from when his clone broke through the prince, uh... except that King Yan Ling seemed to have no clothes when he physically jumped. Although it was covered by gray fog, Shen Qian was really full in the haze. What a blessing.
Soon, the mist dissipated, the temperament changed drastically again, and the ethereal and fairy-like Yanling King reappeared on the jade platform.
Wearing a thin skirt, she finally had the aloof temperament of a top prince.
At this time, King Yan Ling raised his head and looked at the desolate starry sky above Daohai.
She stretched out her hands and closed her eyes, as if sensing something.
Shen Qian looked more intently. He had a hunch that maybe the real difference was here.
Suddenly, as King Yan Ling raised his head, a large halo of light suddenly surged above the starry sky. At the same time, a vast and ethereal, indistinguishable loud voice also sounded in the starry sky.
It should be an unknown ancient language, but Shen Qian directly understood what it was saying.
"In the name of heaven, I will cast your crown!"
The halos in the starry sky gathered together and condensed into a beam of divine light, which suddenly fell on King Yan Ling.
An illusory silver crown vaguely appeared on the head of the Ziyan Spirit King.
Under Shen Qian's shocked gaze, the Yuan Power in King Yan Ling's body was baptized again under impossible circumstances, turning into a strange water flow that shimmered with little stars.
Shen Qian suddenly remembered something.
Tian Feng!
This is the legendary "Heavenly Seal"!
Shen Qian had heard the words "Prince Tianfeng" before, but he always thought that it was really just a symbolic expression, or just some kind of celebration ceremony.
After all, princes all take their own titles.
He never expected that the so-called "Heavenly Seal" actually existed. This was a recognition from Heaven.
Only after this step of baptism and wearing the princely crown cast by divine light, and the Yuanli further transforming into a higher power, can one truly step into the realm of princes.
Shen Qian felt that he was so stupid. Thinking about it, if the prince also used Yuan Power, how could he match the body that had transformed again?
No wonder his princely clone only had one or two hundred thousand combat power after testing, and there was no real gap between him and the tyrants in the mountains and seas. The original reason was here.
Thinking of this, Shen Qian couldn't help but feel ashamed.
He actually missed the most important step, no wonder he always felt like something was missing.
Strictly speaking, Shen Qian's clone is now just a "fake prince".
After the prince's crown was cast, the Yanling King in her sight became even more awe-inspiring and inviolable. She waved her hand, and rays of light refracted from the surrounding starry sky. They continued to pour into her body and at the same time strengthened the new energy in her body. strength.
The power of the stars!
Shen Qian reacted suddenly.
The essence of Yuan Qi and Yuan Li is still the condensation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but in the realm of princes, what is cultivated is no longer spiritual energy, but the power of picking stars directly from the starry sky.
The existence of star power is the foundation for the prince to suppress the warriors of mountains and seas.
As the star power in King Yan Ling's body continues to grow, a star field in the vast starry sky also lights up. The stars in the star field are bright, and there is a vague staircase connecting the jade platform where King Yan Ling is located and the Between the star fields.
Here Shen Qian understood. The unformed staircase was the prince's "Tao", and the end of the road led to the deepest part of the vast starry sky.
But Shen Qian was also a little confused.
He clearly remembered that when his clone broke through the prince, the depths of the vast starry sky were completely empty. Not to mention the star field composed of countless stars, not even a single star could be seen.
Why does this difference occur?
Shen Qian's expression changed. Could it be that...
Is this the so-called "broken road"?
