Destiny is ashes

Chapter 154 Breakthrough Inner Breath Like a Tide (33, thanks to Alliance Leader Liu An Hua You Ming!)
As always, An Jing's mind sank into the depths of the sea of ​​​​gods, and the sword spirit protected him.

It is not difficult to break through the inner breath like a tide. It is essentially a slow and steady process.

Simply put, the human body is a big water tank. The innate qi of an ordinary person is nothing more than some moist water vapor floating in the tank. When the water vapor dries up and dissipates, the person will age and die.

No matter how complicated the martial arts before the three cultivations of internal breath are, in the final analysis, they all require honing the mind and body skills, condensing yin and yang with the methods of movement and stillness, and transforming the innate Qi in the body from water vapor into water droplets, into strands of internal breath that can be controlled.

The next step is to continuously condense the internal energy, and when it fills the tank, even if one shakes the tank with great force, there will not be any fluctuations, like the tide at the peak.

When you reach this point, you can try to condense the "divine power" and break the boundary between internal energy and internal strength.

It sounds like the entire practice of Inner Breath Realm is very simple, and not as complicated as the initial breakthrough to Inner Breath Realm.

indeed so.

But just as being a porter is not difficult at all but difficult to persist until old age, the essence and energy in the human body will continue to be lost. Most people's speed of condensing internal energy is relatively fast before the age of thirty, and then it will continue to decline. In the end, they can only barely maintain their state of non-regression, and quickly decline to nothing before death.

For people with average talent, if they practice cultivation from a young age, they will have enough time to cultivate until their inner breath is as strong as a river before they turn thirty.

But without the help of spiritual objects and other resources, they will never be able to reach the state of inner breath in this lifetime.

This is the natural threshold of the realm.

Even people with good talents find it difficult to cross this threshold, because the better the talent, the faster the speed of condensing internal energy, the larger his water tank is, and the time required is not much less. It's just that people of the same level can use more internal energy.

Rich families can easily break through this threshold by piling up resources. As long as they cultivate enough offspring and wait until one of them awakens, they can have a strong martial artist or even a martial arts master, and thus become a powerful family in a certain area.

Talent. Resources. Luck.

They can break through two of the three major hurdles, and the last one can be compensated by luck, or by having more children and raising them from a young age.

But if you are an ordinary person, first you must have talent, to be able to break through the threshold of the internal energy tide without any resources, and then you must have a destiny, to be able to awaken your destiny and not die halfway, only then can you make the leap to the dragon gate.

The three major hurdles must all be overcome with perseverance.

But even if one breaks through the three major thresholds, there is still the restriction of "gongfa". With the same talent and the same realm, whoever has the better gongfa will have the advantage - and in this regard, the aristocratic families have the advantage.

One person can never defeat an organization.

But An Jing is different.

He has excellent talent, resources from the Two Realms Gate, as well as skills taught by Destiny, the Demon Sect, and the Sword Spirit. Even if the water tank is extremely large, it can be filled quickly, and he can quickly master extremely strong combat power.

People like him can build a force with bare hands. It can be said that he is destined to stir up the situation and shake the world.

"Is this why, in this world of destiny, everyone is still building organizations and sects and countries... As long as you have resources and a large enough population, even destiny or even fate can wait."

With thoughts surging in his mind, An Jing didn't know why he was thinking about these things at first.

But soon he realized that this was him thinking, thinking about the way the whole world worked.

His fate [Seven Evils] is destined to overthrow the world, but An Jing does not intend to blindly resist and overthrow those dynasties and families like the Seven Evils fate masters in the past.

This is meaningless. Because even if I turn everything into ruins and burn it to ashes, for this world, it is nothing more than another reincarnation.

Regardless of whether the Seven Evils can overthrow the world, as long as there are people and groups, there will always be new dynasties, sects and clans.

If he wants to completely change the world and create a new human world, in addition to having his own power, he must also thoroughly understand the principles of how the old forces work.

Only when you fully understand each other can you completely deconstruct the other party.

"More than that."

An Jing waited for the spirit to be digested in his body by the Yi Qi Yang Shen Jue. He thought of the "Jinshi" that his father had been dreaming of.

In addition to this way of operating power by gathering resources, having many children, recruiting disciples, and waiting for the destiny to come, the reason why Dachen can sit firmly on the position of overlord of Beixuanjizhou is because it has the ability to enthrone officials and grant immortality.

His father's talent in martial arts was average, but he had achieved the title of Juren (a juren) and when he returned to his hometown he was also appointed as a county magistrate. He was able to perform some minor magic tricks, such as the Qingfeng Technique, the Qingshen Technique, the Eagle Eye Technique, and so on.

It is precisely because of this ability that the An family can become more prosperous and Dachen can become more stable.

If Dachen is regarded as an opponent, it is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying opponent. It may decay and weaken, but it will never collapse on its own. Because in order to obtain the talisman and for immortality, all the smart people in the world who have not awakened their destiny will flock to the court and become the most solid cornerstone of this system.

This is why An Jing still chooses to walk alone in Dachen even though he has the Fuxie Sword and the Son of Disaster team, and is even likely to get investment and help from the family behind Gu Yeqi.

This is certainly because he is wary of the demons lurking within Dachen, and also because he wants to go deeper and understand Dachen from all aspects.

Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

But in the final analysis, a blacksmith must be strong himself. An Jing knows the priorities - with his current strength, if he enters Dachen and is involved in the turmoil behind the Gu family, things will be troublesome and there will be no way for him to establish his own power.

It is better to become stronger and then establish an organization - the Wumai Grandmaster can build a city, the Shenzang Zhenren can establish a sect, and the Xiansheng... may be able to create a sect, a country!
Strength determines the start!

"The long way is the shortest way, and the shortest way is the long way."

After figuring it all out, An Jing's heart was completely clear, and the flesh and blood of the golden bear's wrist and palm that he had swallowed into his stomach began to be digested and burned fiercely.

It felt like a ball of fire suddenly exploded in the chest and abdomen, and tiny knife-like heat currents continued to spread, from the stomach to the lungs, from the lungs to the heart, and finally from the heart to the whole body.

An Jing practices the Pure and Tranquil Sword Contemplation and the One-Qi Health Preservation Technique to control this heat flow, turning it into small files for polishing rusty swords, and guide it to flow through the meridians around the body.

Outside, An Jing began to breathe deeply, his breathing was long and steady, and he exhaled without interruption, corresponding to the convergence of "gold", condensing the power of the spiritual object. In his body, his mind was constantly guiding this strong innate Qi to polish his meridians, corresponding to the reform of "gold".

With these two methods working together, An Jing's originally stable internal breath suddenly began to flow faster, and while flowing, he continuously absorbed the innate Qi of the spiritual creatures, making himself more powerful.

An Jing perked up, because next, when the thickness of his internal energy exceeded the critical point, if his meridians and body were not strong enough, and his control was not strong enough, he would be torn to pieces by the violent turbulence of his internal energy.

But when An Jing's inner energy broke through smoothly and became like a tide, he still did not notice any danger.

"what?"

After a long while, An Jing, who had broken through to the point where his inner energy was like a tide, opened his eyes and frowned: "I broke through?"
