With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 594 A Fist Shakes the Radiant Light, Revealing Divine Charm; Qi Encompasses the Universe, Proving Innate Innate Power! (6k)

Without hesitation, Meng Chuan lowered his waist and sat down, beginning the Five Elements Fist stance.

Where the fist passed, the air made a tearing sound, and the five elements flowed and evaporated freely, sometimes even more so.

Five-colored light burst forth, appearing together and transforming into a rainbow as they raced away side by side.

Fallen leaves rustle as they land.

The aroma of the wine was completely dissipated by the force of the punch.

When practicing the fist technique, a phantom image floats silently in mid-air.

In the distance, Yang Yuelian and Long Mo remained oblivious.

The existence of the phantom seemed to transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements.

Only Meng Chuan slowly stopped and stood still, his spiritual senses twitching, and his left eye showed something unusual, as if he had sensed something.

He looked up at the void, bowed deeply, and made a gesture of respect.
"Could it be that the senior King Xiang is present?"

[Fist that shakes the eight wastelands - Qin Xiang].

Meng Chuan boldly speculated that the aura that appeared was the "True Essence of Martial Arts" left by King Xiang in front of his own tomb.

True rhyme takes many forms.

Originally, there were inscriptions on the original site, rock paintings in the natural landscape, and so on.

The writings of our predecessors will endure through the ages.

Essentially, it is a spiritual imprint that carries the spirit of martial arts.

It is not uncommon for the spirit of King Xiang to be imprinted on stone tablets.

However, its form of existence is not through carving or inscription, but rather like incense offerings and deities, leaving behind a "virtual form" to endure in the world.

This surprised Meng Chuan.

When one's martial arts skills reach a certain level, one can become like King Xiang.

Physical body destroyed, but martial spirit endures?
Meng Chuan speculated that this was probably related to the will to fight martial arts.
The power of willpower has too many unknowns and unsolved mysteries, which he does not fully comprehend.

Coming to his senses, he realized that the air machine in the sky was approaching him.

Meng Chuan neither dodged nor dodged, but waited quietly.

It felt as if a wisp of air was circulating around my body and then seeping into my pores.

He had experienced this feeling many times before.

Previously, Principal Sui had imparted his power [Boiling Flame], leaving a spiritual imprint in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the person who left it had the same feeling.

After a long time.

The strange feeling around him dissipated, and Meng Chuan straightened up and looked inward into his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Why not?"

My gaze traveled along the meridians of my body, and after a moment, I was completely unaware.

Did the King of Xiang come, take a look, and then leave?

No way.
Meng Chuan paused, then suddenly realized something.

The senses are concentrated between the eyebrows and in the upper dantian.

The enormous body of Ganesha was looking at him with an innocent expression.

After pondering for a while, Meng Chuan opened its large mouth and searched around.
After a long while, he withdrew from the internal vision, looking completely bewildered.

"It wasn't eaten by Ganesha. And the Dragon Demon isn't inside me either, so where did it go?"

"Tao Xin?"

Meng Chuan went to check, but there was nothing there.

He could no longer sense that energy when he practiced his punches; everything was calm and peaceful, with only the five aggregates flowing through him.

Meng Chuan was certain that he had absorbed the true essence of King Xiang, but he still did not know where it was hidden.
Human interference will destroy the integrity of the true rhythm.

He had already obtained this wisp of energy, so naturally he could no longer activate this true essence to manifest, including those who came after him.

Where exactly is it hidden?

Meng Chuan looked inward again; this energy couldn't just disappear into thin air.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and remembered something.

Could it be
Then he looked down at the inside of his wrist.

A pale red inverted question mark slowly appeared.

Sitting cross-legged, communicating with the imprint, Meng Chuan's soul stepped into the battle spirit space.

When he opened his eyes again, the surroundings were still dark, and the world was quietly waiting for him to activate it with his punch.

Perceive it, and you can feel a faint aura in the air, just like the "True Aura of King Xiang" that you just heard from the outside world.

Meng Chuan nodded, confirming that they had indeed come here.
The true essence of King Xiang has been absorbed by the Battle Soul Space, awaiting its activation.

As he practiced the Five Aggregates Fist, he contemplated the bizarre and fantastical world of the Five Aggregates.

It's colorful and vibrant, like a world where a palette has been overturned.

The Five Aggregates have already transformed into the seed of the Five Elements Returning to the Origin, residing within the body.

At this moment, it was simulated by the War Soul Space and appeared before my eyes.

Returning to this place once again, Meng Chuan focused his attention on it.

A figure clad in crimson-gold armor stood with arms crossed at the center of the world.

His body was towering and upright, his muscular frame topped with bulging armor.

Sensing something, one could sense that there was no imposing aura emanating from him, yet a sense of awe and fear welled up in one's heart.

Not only him, but anyone whose eyes lingered on the other person would have a single thought in their mind.

Domineering!

overbearing!

Meng Chuanzhou unconsciously released the magnetic field that had been gathered around him.

At the same time, all the vital energies of the five aggregates were drawn to him and flocked to him.

A five-colored gale swept around him, while dark clouds gathered overhead, faintly punctuated by flashes of lightning and thunder.

Its momentum surged and erupted unrestrained!
The other party, like him, possessed an overbearing aura!

Qin Xiang is dead, leaving behind only a trace of the true essence of martial arts.

But it is still "Though the body is dead, the spirit lives on; the soul is resolute, a heroic ghost!"

Meng Chuan slowly walked towards Qin Xiang, his massive body pressing down on him step by step.

The five aggregates of energy are like a radiant and colorful garment draped over him.

Qin Xiang was finally moved when he saw this scene.

He remained on Caixia Mountain for over a century, a period of profound solitude.

Despite the wind and rain, and without human intervention to erase it, it has remained forever.

He is right here, quietly waiting for his destined successor.

The figure in crimson gold armor landed slowly.

Meng Chuan saw something somewhat blurry, but the other person seemed to be smiling as they slowly spoke:
"After I died for King Xiang, the martial arts techniques [Divine Charm] remained in the world."

By order of King Xiang, the Five Elements Fist technique will be passed down to future generations, and those with extraordinary talent will be rewarded.

Over a century has passed, and finally, I have waited for you, the inheritor, to tell me your name.

"."

Meng Chuan looked somewhat embarrassed.

But considering that King Xiang was an ancient figure, this is the tone he speaks.
That's normal.

This is his unique world, a space of imagination, where everything is under his control.

Meng Chuan composed himself and bowed respectfully:
"Kid [Infinite Fist - Meng Chuan]".

The King of Xiang pursed his lips slightly, as if savoring the memory.

"Infinite Fist. What audacity! To dare to use 'infinite' as a martial arts title is truly ambitious!"
"Oh, right, kid, unleash your full aura again, don't hold it back."

"."

"Right, that is it!"

As Meng Chuan's aura slowly dissipated once again.

This "spirit" is evident in his satisfied expression and gratified look.

He felt as if he had come back to life, seeing his younger self, who was just as unrestrained and spirited.
No wonder I woke up.

Aside from the Five Elements Fist, this martial arts aura is also key to activating his awakening.

The unparalleled martial arts skills of King Xiang should be passed down to someone like him!

He looked around, not knowing where he was, yet it seemed unlike the human world.

But you can still feel the power slipping through your fingers like quicksand, and time flies by.

"I have been inspired by you, and I cannot remain in this world for long."

"Come closer, and with my divine essence, I will bestow upon you the power of 'One Breath Encompassing the Universe'."

"One breath encompasses the universe"—what a grand title!

Also, Meng Chuanfang had been curious about this.

Why does it call itself "divine charm" when it is clearly "the true essence of martial arts"?
The lingering charm of divine skills and ultimate techniques?

With his current level of martial arts understanding, there's really not much hope for him to cultivate ordinary true skills.

Only a self-created technique that integrates and synthesizes knowledge can arouse some anticipation and interest.

The divine skill is something I've been eagerly anticipating.

So today, shall we learn divine skills?
Meng Chuan instantly got excited.

Unintentionally, I thought that if I went back to Yong'an to pay my respects to King Xiang, I would be able to "touch" such a big prize!

Meng Chuan guessed that the other party was going to give him a blessing.

It's like imprinting the knowledge from the cultivation method into one's mind like a spiritual imprint, rather than teaching it step by step.

But don't forget where you are.
Perhaps this divine charm is about to dissipate.

But if he waits until he masters this technique, he and the Prince of Xiang can reunite in the world of the Battle Soul Space.
But he also didn't forget that in case the King of Xiang had some obsession, like that mad old Taoist priest from the world of Five Thunderbolts.
A king-level opponent existing in the world of imagination
Meng Chuanxian didn't think that far ahead; at this moment, he probably couldn't even get to the basics.

Sure enough, he heard King Xiang say:
"I will impart this method to you. Keep it in your mind and try to master it after your body undergoes a transformation."

【One Breath Encompasses the Universe】is a supreme divine skill created by King Xiang himself, which allows one to wield a single breath and encompass all the order of heaven and earth.

Unfortunately, after I created this method, I didn't go very far down this path before...

Shen Yun shook its head, its efforts thwarted at the last moment, it has no need for external methods, nor does it deign to do so.

The true cause of King Xiang's death is a subject of much debate.

Meng Chuan was also a little curious, but seeing that the other party seemed unwilling to talk about it, he didn't ask any further questions.

No matter how mysterious it is, nothing is more important than mastering the ultimate martial arts technique.

Moreover, judging from the meaning behind King Xiang's words, this method seems to be no ordinary divine skill or ultimate technique.

As for whether this type of top-tier cultivation technique has internal level subdivisions, Meng Chuan did not know.

But he estimated that there must be.

Even if it's not openly discussed, the harder something is to train, the stronger it is—that's an ironclad rule.
Moreover, Principal Sui had told him this before.

The foundational method of this divine skill is introduced to the basics; subsequent cultivation and development depend on individual comprehension.

The same technique can be performed in vastly different ways by different hands.

As for what "罡变" means.

This is the term for the transformation of the entire body after the human body has broken through its limits four times – Gang Bian.

The practice of internalizing one's vital energy to nourish the body and address any deficiencies in one's innate physical form is known as the "Transformation of the Qi".

The "Longevity and Happiness Method" that Meng Chuan learned, if practiced deeply enough, will give one the opportunity to "reverse one's innate nature".

This is also an opportunity, like the transformation of the Gang, to make up for one's innate deficiencies.

Unpredictable.

All the world's most powerful and unique martial arts techniques require a prerequisite of transformation.

This is because the Gangbian technique is used to stuff a person's body into Laozi's Golden Elixir Furnace for reforging.

The human body is thoroughly adjusted and reorganized to align with its innate nature.

Those with inferior innate talent have the incredible fortune to advance to the Grandmaster level. A single opportunity for transformation can elevate their innate talent to a superior level!
In Meng Chuan's case, it would be even more inhuman.
Just like some "divine blood races" in the universe, they are born powerful.

Humans cannot do this, but nature has its own way of doing things.

Through martial arts, one can continuously improve oneself, elevate one's innate physical foundation, and become comparable to gods and demons!

"Alright, before I begin the initiation, I must tell you King Xiang's last wish. Listen carefully."

Meng Chuan nodded solemnly:

"Junior understands."

It's normal to expect something in return when you receive something in return.

"If you are a descendant of my Qin family, you may inherit the name of [Fist Shakes the Eight Desolations]."

If you are not a descendant of the Qin family, please pass on this method that I comprehended after falling into demonic possession to the descendants of the Qin family.

My Qin family are all virtuous people; we will surely be richly rewarded.

"It's nothing," Meng Chuan nodded.

The true cause of King Xiang's death may have been related to his "possession by demons".

As for the martial arts title "Fist Shakes the Eight Desolations"
King Xiang was overthinking it.

What year is it now? Martial arts titles are no longer hereditary.
The current [Fist Shakes the Eight Desolations] is guarded by the western garrison of the Great Chu, and the Qin family most likely won't be able to take it back.
However, Meng Chuan could be of assistance and find it convenient to pass on the "One Qi Gathers the Universe" technique to the descendants of King Xiang.

Qin Yue, the commander-in-chief of the Sanqin Garrison Army, is a direct descendant of the King of Xiang and the current head of the Qin family.

“I am not a descendant of the Qin family, but I will certainly not fail the trust of the King of Xiang and will hand over the One Qi Conquering the Universe to the Qin family.”

The King of Xiang nodded in approval:

"There's no rush. Wait until you've made some progress in this method and left behind the essence of the technique in the world before informing the Qin family."

There is no written record of these divine skills and unique techniques.

Or rather, the profound martial arts principles cannot be conveyed through words and illustrations alone.

Only through the form of "rhyme," which is similar to a spiritual imprint, can the method and skill be transmitted.

The true essence of the art has already been preserved in Meng Chuan.

Just like the words he left behind on Mount Hua.

Later generations of disciples can then study the texts to refine their own martial arts will.

The true essence of the practice is the same.

His self-created boxing techniques and hard skills can all be imprinted in books, and his spirit will be permanently preserved on the title page.

But the spirit of the spirit is clearly different from the true spirit.

Meng Chuan roughly guessed that it required a certain level of mastery of divine skills, as well as a higher level of martial arts principles, etc.

The task is arduous and the road ahead is long.
The spirit of King Xiang still exists for some time; it is important to manage the situation carefully.

With the Heavenly King's insights, he helped Meng Chuan to sort out the Five Elements martial arts principles.

His interior setting, "Natural Mountains," has undergone a mysterious change, becoming more harmonious and coordinated with the interior scenery.

Clearly, the benefits were substantial.

Time passed slowly. If it had happened before, Meng Chuan's mental strength would have given out long ago, and he would have left the Battle Soul Space.

But now, not only is his physical body more enduring, but his mental strength is also far from being as weak as before.

If he doesn't take action to accelerate the consumption, he can talk for another day and night.
Unfortunately, the charm of King Xiang could not last that long.

Feeling his body becoming increasingly ethereal, he knew his mission was about to end, and he would vanish into nothingness.

He couldn't help but sigh:

"Come, I will bestow upon you the [One Breath Encompasses the Universe] empowerment."

In fact, teaching by example and verbal instruction, correcting and guiding students little by little, allows for a faster entry into mastering extraordinary skills.

Some extraordinary skills can even bypass the prerequisite of "physical transformation" in this way.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one, and the idea behind this method is too profound.

Even though this kid has mastered the Five Elements theory, he still finds it somewhat incomprehensible.

However, he has never touched upon those profound martial arts principles involving the Five Elements. Even when he breaks them down into detailed explanations, they remain as obscure as listening to a book written in the heavens.

If you start practicing directly, even if you make progress every day, you still won't understand it even after ten or thirty years, and naturally you won't be able to get started.

After listening to what the other person had to say, Meng Chuan secretly mustered his courage and slowly leaned his head closer.

Xiang Wang Shenyun looked at Meng Chuan sticking his head over, his expression one of surprise.

Meng Chuan asked in bewilderment:
"Isn't it an initiation ceremony?"

"I come from a Taoist temple and do not practice the Buddhist concept of 'enlightenment' or 'initiation'. Remember that!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the divine aura of King Xiang erupted with a fierce wind, stirring up the five elements of heaven and earth.

Meng Chuan's vision blurred, and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a vast and boundless fairyland.

He declared in one sentence that this was "fairyland".

A "real wonderland" similar to the real world.

He opened his hand, and light streamed through his fingers like shattered gold.

Once he had steadied himself, the moss beneath his feet began to shimmer with a pearly light.

Each dewdrop reflected a rainbow-colored pupil, opening and closing with his breath.

Suddenly, the distant mountains stretched out their limbs, their rocky ridges transforming into jade dragons that roamed freely. The clouds and mist were no longer floating, but rather like countless fairies in flowing robes spinning thread. Where the silver shuttle was thrown, stars fell with a tinkling sound, brushing against Meng Chuan's cheek.

An old peach tree twists and turns, its fallen petals forming a harp-like melody in the air. When the wind blows, however, it plays the rhythm of koi carp bubbling in the pond.

Meng Chuan raised his hand to touch the drooping vines, and the green tendrils immediately meandered down. The branches draped over his shoulders, tickling his palm.

The air in this fairyland is as thick as honey, and even time seems to solidify into amber.

Just then, a grand voice echoed from the heavens:
"【One Qi Encompasses the Universe】is based on the 【Five Elements Universe Fist】you have practiced."

Based on the Taoist divine skill, the "Supreme Celestial Immortal Method" was innovated and created, thus creating this method of governing all things in the world with qi.

If one can cultivate this divine skill to a certain level, one can transform into any energy in the world and roam freely in the vast void.

According to Xiang Wang's deduction, if this method is given to someone with extraordinary talent, and they can deduce more than half of it, they will become the pinnacle of humanity and a great sage of martial arts!

The core of cultivation is to collect precious things from heaven and earth, refine them into qi, and transform them into one's own body.

By gathering the vital energy, the inner world is transformed to encompass the universe.

The appearance of the Universal Realm made King Xiang realize the terrifying upper limit of this technique.

Theoretically speaking, this method can use Qi to absorb and refine everything in the world, with almost no upper limit!
The universe is finite, but the inner world of martial arts is infinite. If one refines enough precious treasures, perhaps on the day of perfect enlightenment, one can recreate the mortal realm within one's body, perhaps even rivaling the entire universe, or even more!

The tone of Xiang Wang's voice was full of regret.

King Xiang clearly failed to do these things.

His creation of this technique demonstrates an astonishing talent and mastery in the Five Elements and Qi manipulation.

And then, in the end, all their efforts were in vain.
When King Xiang was alive, all things in the world could no longer satisfy him.

In order to cultivate to a higher level, break through the final stage of forging the sacred embryo, and become a martial arts saint.

He set his sights on the world.
This method wasn't originally called this; it was renamed later.

The physical body of King Xiang entered the world through the temple.

Having personally experienced this land, which is countless times larger than the human world, he made a grand vow to embrace the universe with his own strength.

later
King Xiang never returned to the mortal realm, leaving only a cenotaph with a lingering divine aura.
Meng Chuan couldn't say how long this initiation would last.

He simply kept transferring the cultivation method of the divine skill to the "memory palace".

It truly lives up to its reputation as a divine skill, and it's among the most difficult to master.

Even though Meng Chuan didn't understand the basics, he still grasped some of the fundamentals of Qi manipulation and gained a great deal from it.

He could see the subtle energy emanating from living things; even plants and fish possessed a wondrous and profound aura.

But it was only through their stories that he learned that even a brick or a roof beam contains a breath of energy.

Just like the inner world he was in right now, which was created during the time when King Xiang was alive!
"The Real Wonderland" is King Xiang's inner world!

Meng Chuan looked around, and even the folds of the mushrooms at his feet seemed to emanate soft laughter.

The world that came to life was the inner world of King Xiang, created by combining his inner vision with the heavens and the power of cultivation techniques.

The divine inspiration was presented before his eyes.

All things truly possess a spirit, which is refined into energy and absorbed into the body to form the universe!
Meng Chuan was deeply moved; this path filled him with longing.

If we were to say what the most powerful force is...

He believed it to be a power capable of encompassing everything.
King Xiang entrusted him with the creative ideas and conception of this method.

Meng Chuan is willing to make further improvements!
To truly grasp the essence of "One Qi Encompasses the Universe," only a physical body that has undergone a transformation can truly perceive the rhythm of the breath of all things.

The process of refining matter into qi and incorporating it into the body must all take place within the body after the transformation.

Meng Chuan could only suppress the palpitations in his body and intensify his cultivation so that he could achieve the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and become a Grandmaster as soon as possible.

The world shattered before his eyes, and the last vestige of King Xiang's "resonance" dissipated into the five aggregates of heaven and earth.

In the world of the Five Aggregates, Meng Chuan reached out to catch the dissipating light, but was powerless to do so.

The charm has faded.

Upon exiting the Battle Soul Space, the sky had turned into a high, dark expanse.

Time in the Battle Soul Space is synchronized with reality; it is already late at night.

Meng Chuan met the girl's dusty face, looked directly into her eyes, and saw the confusion in her gaze.

Yang Yuelian was beaten by the stone man for two whole hours until her mental and physical strength was exhausted before she was able to break free.

[Battle Mind Clarity] is almost smoking, a painful yet pleasurable experience, I guess I've "stolen" a really good one.
With its spiritual power depleted, the dragon demon had long since vanished.

No matter how unwilling one is, one can only return to nourishing oneself within the body.

Meng Chuan ignored her, closed his eyes, took the Cloud Water Pill, and regulated his breathing.

Yang Yuelian timidly nudged his arm and whispered:

"Enlightenment at a grave?"

"."

"What have you realized? Can you tell me? My family is rich, I'll give you money."

"I'll think about it again once you've finished what I entrusted to you."

Meng Chuan brushed it off, patted his behind, got up, and bowed again and again to the tomb in front of him.

Although I haven't yet mastered the art of absorbing the universe with a single breath, receiving initiation can still be considered a form of learning.

Unexpectedly, his first divine skill was neither the fire-attribute divine skill that Principal Sui had promised to teach, nor the divine skill that Shaolin owed him in exchange for Brahma's Prison Suppression.

It was passed down by King Xiang.

Meng Chuan looked up suddenly, feeling as if he had been transported to another world.

Time seems to be a great loop, connecting the Five Elements Universe Fist and the One Qi Gathering the Universe, returning to the origin, which is oneself.

"The Buddha said that good and evil deeds are rewarded accordingly, and fortune and misfortune are passed down from one another. One must bear the consequences of one's own actions, and no one can take one's place."

Past events are the cause, present events are the effect.

This method is waiting for him, but isn't he also waiting for this method?
Nighttime, five-star hotel.

After parting ways with Meng Chuan, Yang Yuelian returned to her lodgings.

She threw herself into the bathtub filled with herbal medicine and let out a soft, comfortable groan.

She was hammered by the stone golem all day, and her whole body was covered in bruises, looking like a shrimp that had been mashed into a paste. She was in terrible shape.
However, she still had a smile on her face, clearly satisfied with her harvest.

Looking back now, Zhan Xin recalls the waves of defeats he experienced, which serve as a reminder in his heart.

My mind is like a movie playing in my head, a rapid cycle of experiences leaving their imprints on my being.

That trait is indeed quite strong!

Repeat this several times until the pool water is ice-cold.

Yang Yuelian slowly emerged from the bathrobe, covering her ivory-white skin.

"The power of intention is truly complex. It involves controlling the magnetic field, aligning the mind and intention, and then achieving what my grandfather once described: using qi and blood as the anchor, spirit as the guide, and will as the driving force."

"Let's start by using the power of the Beast King Diagram and the Phoenix Demon to aid our perception and strive to condense the initial form of our Dharma Body!"

Yang Yuelian was full of confidence, and even though Meng Chuanqiang's abilities were beyond her comprehension, she remained unfazed.

Her special trait, "Clear Mind in Battle," is perfect for playing when you're behind!

We will fight to sustain our war effort, and ultimately defeat Meng!
