Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 400 Changing Fate Against Heaven
Although Yan Ningning is only fifteen years old, she has received various elite educations since childhood. Although she does not yet have a mature view of life and the world, she knows a great deal.

However, what Gao Wu said was different from what his other teachers, relatives, and friends had said.

She roughly understood, but something still felt off.

The inheritance of martial arts is extremely important; in the real world, it is second only to blood ties.

The master disregarded sect rules, respect for teachers, and the maintenance of world peace, yet claimed that "practicing martial arts is about confronting oneself and empowering one to be one's true self." This indeed struck Yan Ningning as rather strange.

Gao Wu understood Yan Ningning's thoughts. He smiled and said, "A senior teacher once said that responsibility is never imposed. Emphasizing responsibility is only for education and guidance. You are destined to become a strong person. Only your heartfelt awareness will have meaning and allow you to stick to it."

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Yan Ningning's forehead, passing on the entire Xuanlong Dao cultivation method to this little disciple.

Yan Ningning, who has awakened her spatial abilities, still finds her spatial abilities too weak to even condense into an independent space.

There are two fundamental reasons for this: first, insufficient spiritual strength; and second, inability to control the source energy.

The Xuanlong Dao corresponds to spatial changes and has a complete cultivation method.

The Nine Dragons Limitless Path was so complex and intricate that by the time he was learning it, his mental strength was already incredibly powerful, comparable to a level seven cultivator.

Yan Ningning's current condition is not much better than that of her peers, and the Nine Dragons Limitless Path is not suitable for her.

The Xuanlong Dao Method alone is enough for her to reach level eight.

Gao Wu hoped that Yan Ningning could become the third strongest person in the world, but Yan Ningning did not have the Book of Boundless Merit. He could take Yan Ningning to take a shortcut, but in the end, she still had to walk this path by herself...

Yan Ningning's mind was filled with a large number of martial arts techniques, and her mental strength was not able to withstand it. She could only close her eyes and slowly absorb and understand these techniques.

Fortunately, there was also an exceptionally fresh and vibrant aura that made her mind exceptionally clear and her body full of endless vitality.

She was able to comprehend the vast and complex martial arts techniques layer by layer, even in this strange and mysterious state...

When Yan Ningning opened her eyes again, she found herself in a bright and spacious study.

Outside the window is a clear blue lake, reflecting the green mountains and white pagoda, with boats leisurely passing by like fish.

Yan Ningning immediately recognized this as Luoyan Lake. Judging from its location, it should be on the north bank of the lake. From this position, one can even faintly see the long dike on the opposite bank.

She turned around and saw the teacher reading a book behind his desk. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a comic book.

Gao Wu noticed that Yan Ningning had woken up, so he put down the comic book he was holding and asked, "How are you?"

Yan Ningning didn't know what to say. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Master, I have memorized the Xuanlong Dao, but I need to cultivate it slowly."

Gao Wu looked at Yan Ningning and said, "Slow cultivation won't work. When will you become the third best in the world?"

Yan Ningning's face flushed. She had only said that because she was annoyed by Gao Wu's casual remarks.

Now that she has become an apprentice, her relationship with Gao Wu is different. Moreover, through this apprenticeship banquet, she can feel her master's high regard and care for her.

She was too embarrassed to say such grand things to her master now.

When Gao Wu saw the girl's rosy cheeks, he couldn't help but laugh. This child was timid, thin-skinned, and didn't know how to speak. Apart from being pretty, she didn't have any outstanding qualities.

However, this is the norm; this is what a normal person is like. Who else is as full of virtues as him!

He patted his disciple's head and said, "My first disciple must be decent! As long as you have some understanding, that's fine. Today, let's start with the first step: visualizing the Mysterious Dragon Divine Image to condense the dantian acupoints."

"Huh?" Yan Ningning's bright eyes widened in surprise.

She lacked martial arts skills, but she came from a prominent family and had a good understanding of martial arts.

Dong'an No. 1 Middle School is almost the best middle school in the alliance. It seems that there is only one junior high school student who has condensed source power, and he has been hailed as a super genius.

Fewer than ten people in high school have condensed their source power, and they are all hailed as geniuses.

Yan Ningning couldn't even imagine the sensation that her current condensation of source energy into her acupoints would cause.

Gao Wu laughed heartily; he loved his disciple's naive and unworldly demeanor.

Xiao Song was rather uninteresting; he wasn't surprised at all that he had advanced to Martial Saint, as if it were only natural...

Oh right, he hasn't told Chao Fengying the good news yet. He'll go tell his junior sister about it later.

Gao Wu said softly, "For ordinary martial artists, the most difficult part of condensing source power in acupoints is sensing the source power and using spiritual power to visualize the divine image, and then guiding the source power in an orderly manner through the divine image."

"The real difficulty in this step lies in the fact that the boy's physical foundation is too weak. If I impart my skills to you, you can directly overcome this hurdle. As for visualizing the divine image, you can just follow me to learn."

"Wait until you reach level eight before you start thinking about your own path."

Qin Liuhe let him cultivate on his own in the hope that he could find his own path in martial arts.

Although he quickly advanced to level eight, he has achieved considerable skill in the Xuanlong Dao.

Forty points of spiritual power were enough for him to understand the profound changes of the eighth-level Xuanlong Dao.

Simply put, he has already found a direct and easy path on the Xuanlong Path. Yan Ningning only needs to follow him in her cultivation; she doesn't need to figure it out on her own at all.

Gao Wu activated the Heavenly Dragon Divine Image and directly entered Yan Ningning's spiritual world, allowing Yan Ningning to visualize the Heavenly Dragon Divine Image one-to-one.

For ordinary children, this step is actually impossible. However, Yan Ningning has awakened spatial abilities, and if she were to visualize a complete divine image out of thin air, she doesn't know how long it would take her to figure it out and accumulate experience.

With his divine image of the Heavenly Dragon as a model, this becomes very simple.

When Yan Ningning visualized the Heavenly Dragon Divine Image, although it was only one percent of his original divine image, it was complete from beginning to end and also had a trace of the spirit of a Xuanlong soaring through the nine heavens.

Gao Wu once again poured in about a hundred years of his life force, directly blessing Yan Ningning through the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra.

The girl was born weak and could not withstand intense training. Without a physical foundation, she could not train her mental strength, let alone circulate her source energy.

A century of powerful vitality is an extremely precious resource even for a sixth-level martial arts master. For a fifteen-year-old girl, it's already far too much.

Yan Qiushui died to save him. He couldn't change the past, but he could change Yan Ningning's fate.

This small price to pay is nothing at all.

The powerful life force changed Yan Ningning's innate constitution, making her spirit strong and her blood and energy abundant.

Visualizing the Mysterious Dragon God becomes very simple and easy. With the God's image, it is natural to sense the source power of the real world and establish resonance.

Yan Ningning felt as if an invisible channel had opened deep within her dantian, and pure source energy was constantly gathering there.

Guided by the Xuanlong Divine Image deep within her brow, a stable vortex formed in her dantian, absorbing source energy stronger and stronger, eventually condensing into a black eight-pointed star...

When Yan Ningning opened her eyes again, the world had changed. It was also the first time she had sensed the endless and vast amount of source energy particles flowing in the air.

She clenched her fist slightly, feeling as if she had the strength of ten thousand pounds in her hand.

"You've only just condensed your acupoints, you need time to adapt to the source energy. Come back tomorrow morning." Gao Wu didn't instruct Yan Ningning on how to circulate the source energy; the Xuanlong Dao already had detailed methods, and Yan Ningning could learn them on her own.

Although Yan Ningning has exceptionally poor innate abilities, she is actually very intelligent. That's enough.

If someone lacks wisdom, then no matter how much help they provide, it won't be of much use.

Yan Ningning returned home at six o'clock in the afternoon.

Qi Hui and Yan Nanshan were waiting in the living room. When they saw Yan Ningning come in, Qi Hui hurriedly went to greet her. Just as she was about to speak, she sensed the aura of source energy on her daughter.

She was immediately shocked and looked her daughter up and down: "Ningning, you, this is, this is..."

So shocked was Qi Hui that her language ability was greatly affected, and she couldn't speak a complete sentence for a while.

Yan Nanshan was a sixth-level martial arts grandmaster, whose cultivation was far superior to that of his wife, Qi Hui. He could see more clearly that his daughter indeed possessed a complete source energy circulation aura.

But he too was filled with disbelief, staring blankly at his daughter.

Yan Ningning felt a little embarrassed by her parents' gaze, but she was also a little proud. Her parents had always thought that she was incapable of practicing martial arts, and today she had finally proven herself.

She lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Mom, I have focused my energy in my dantian."

"Ah, ah, ah..." Qi Hui responded, but still didn't know what to say.

To enable a low-level martial artist to condense source energy in just one day! Is this something a human can do?

Qi Hui couldn't help but think of Gao Wu's calm and composed smile. This peerless genius—no, calling him a genius now would be too insulting to Gao Wu. He was already an eighth-level Martial Saint in the Alliance, the strongest person in the Alliance!
After thinking for a while, she finally said, "Master Gao is incredibly powerful. Ningning, you're really lucky..."

She thought for a moment, then hurriedly said, "You must listen carefully to Master Gao's words, understand?!"

Yan Nanshan nodded vigorously from the side.

Yan Ningning nodded; she would naturally listen to her teacher!

After their initial shock, Qi Hui and Yan Nanshan were overjoyed. They spent the entire night helping their daughter familiarize herself with the source energy.

The next day, Yan Ningning went to Gaowu Villa again.

This time, Gao Wu directly gave Yan Ningning some diluted dragon blood, which was still highly poisonous to her, even if it was diluted.

Once integrated into the body, they cannot survive for more than a minute before their organs fail and they die.

Gao Wu, however, relied on the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra to empower Yan Ningning's life force, thus resolving all the side effects of the dragon blood and greatly strengthening Yan Ningning's body, bones, and organs in a short period of time.

Such a powerful effect caused Yan Ningning great pain, and the girl cried out in agony.

Chao Fengying felt particularly sorry for Yan Ningning as she watched from the sidelines. But after Yan Ningning survived this ordeal, she actually managed to solidify two acupoints, one between her eyebrows and the other in her heart, and directly became a high-level warrior.

Chao Fengying felt a pang of jealousy again; her senior brother's methods were truly heaven-defying!

She initially thought her senior brother was joking about passing on his internal energy, but now it seems it was actually true! It's just that her senior brother is stingy and unwilling to directly pass on his internal energy to her... Humph!

Thinking of this, Chao Fengying secretly rolled her eyes at the back of Gao Wu's head.

When Yan Ningning returned home, Yan Nanshan and Qi Hui were once again deeply shocked.

To be honest, the couple were quite knowledgeable, and at this moment they really wanted to kneel down before Gao Wu.

Monday morning, martial arts class.

Wang Dan looked at Yan Ningning and said with a sneer, "I heard you've found a great teacher?"

Before Yan Ningning could speak, she sneered again: "Your teacher has no taste in choosing you as a student."

Yan Ningning was a little unhappy. She said in a low voice, "It's fine if you talk about me, but you can't say bad things about my teacher."

"I told you so, so what?" Wang Dan was even angrier when she saw Yan Ningning looking like she was about to cry. This little bitch is really good at pretending.

Yan Ningning was even more annoyed, and her eyes reddened. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tell the teacher."

Wang Dan pointed at Yan Ningning's chest: "What else can you do besides tattling?"

Although Yan Ningning was gentle by nature, she could not tolerate Wang Dan bullying her like this. With a flick of her wrist, Wang Dan's arm suddenly swung up, and she flew several meters away and landed on the ground.

Wang Dan, lying on the ground, screamed in fright. She felt as if her arm was broken and her body was numb.

The sudden change attracted everyone's attention, and a group of middle school students hurriedly gathered around, staring wide-eyed.

The martial arts instructor rushed over to check and found that Wang Dan had only strained a muscle and his wrist appeared to be fractured. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Yan Ningning, whose eyes were red and on the verge of tears: "Teacher, she bullied me..."

The martial arts teacher was speechless. He then noticed that Yan Ningning's physical condition seemed a little off.

He asked in surprise, "You've condensed your acupoints?"

"Mmm." Although Yan Ningning felt wronged, she still responded softly.

"Come and try your punching power." The martial arts teacher led Yan Ningning to the punching power testing machine and let her try it.

With a loud bang, the machine displayed the number "3321".

The students watching the spectacle gasped in unison, realizing that Yan Ningning's punch weighed over 3,000 kilograms, and that she had thrown it casually without even using any force.

The students at No. 1 High School are all elites, so they naturally understand what this number represents. They all looked at Yan Ningning with eyes that seemed to regard her as a goddess.

Yan Ningning was still a little unhappy. She had been bullied, and the teacher didn't even stand up for her.

The martial arts instructor was also terrified. Luckily, Yan Ningning hadn't used too much force, or Wang Dan would have been dead.

When Wang Dan's parents came over angrily to argue, the martial arts teacher said directly, "Yan Ningning is already a martial artist. If she hadn't controlled her power, your daughter would be dead."

"Her maternal uncle is the Heavenly King Qi Tian, ​​and her master is Gao Wu. Are you sure you want to hold this against her?"

Wang Dan's parents were no ordinary people either. Precisely because of this, they knew the weight of those two names and immediately fell silent.

What started as a minor squabble between students has escalated to the level of parents. Even if he has a slight advantage, can he possibly win against these two?!
What a joke! He's not a child. He knows perfectly well that the consequences of a fight are something he can't handle, not even something his entire family can bear.

The martial arts instructor added, "Yan Ningning has only just condensed her source energy and doesn't know how to control it yet. Make sure you and Wang Dan understand that she shouldn't provoke her. If you're not careful, Yan Ningning might really kill you..."

The father's expression changed slightly, then he nodded earnestly and forcefully: "I understand, I will educate Wang Dan properly..."
