Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 1007: Chapter 978 Igniting the Divine Fire

“`

All three of Chen Fei’s Divine Powers have reached Great Completion within him. As long as he cultivates the Source Point Space within his body to the utmost level, he can begin preparing for the breakthrough to the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm.

There are actually two methods one can choose from to cultivate to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.

Originally, in the Boundless Sea plane, Chen Fei obtained the Stellar Divine Technique from the Stellar Sacred Land, which described the conventional cultivation method of the Sun Moon Realm, that is, the Sun Moon Four Extremes.

The first three Extremes involve cultivating one Divine Power each to solidify the Source Point Space, with the strength of the Divine Powers affecting the size of the Source Point Space.

A cultivator’s battle strength in the Sun Moon Realm is influenced by many factors: the level of the Divine Powers, the size of the Source Point Space, the profundity of the martial arts, and so on — all constantly affecting the cultivator’s power.

This conventional method involves cultivating the three Divine Powers to the late-stage peak of the Sun Moon Realm and then igniting the three Divine Powers within the Source Point Space, which is the first method of breakthrough.

If the ignition is successful, the Source Point Space will undergo a new transformation, gaining fluidity and becoming the rudiment of a true space.

At this time, the cultivator’s essence, energy, spirit, and soul will undergo further purification and enhancement, followed by stepping into the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.

This is the conventional route, which the vast majority of those in the Sun Moon Realm choose.

The path is clear; as long as one’s foundation is solid enough and there are no defects in the Source Point Space, it is normally possible to ignite the three supporting Divine Powers and break through successfully.

If one is only seeking to reach a certain Cultivation Realm, it’s even possible to lower the demands on the Divine Powers, making ignition simpler, although the resulting battle strength might be debatable.

Besides this conventional method, there is another more difficult cultivation method for the Sun Moon Realm, which is more advantageous for future breakthroughs to the Rule Integration Realm.

This involves, after the full cultivation of the three Divine Powers in the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm, not igniting the Divine Powers during the breakthrough to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, but instead directly comprehending the Rules in advance.

This is not about comprehending fragments of rules, but fully understanding one’s own Divine Power, transforming it into a regular move, and naturally stepping into the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.

Using Divine Powers, for those in the Sun Moon Realm, actually carries a burden; the stronger the Divine Power, the heavier the burden.

Divine Powers are essentially rule particles, and when the Sun Moon Realm uses Divine Powers, it is actually pushing the rule particles within to move.

Because one in the Sun Moon Realm does not understand the Rules, to activate a Divine Power is merely to push its shell which then pushes the rule particles within.

This intermediary step allows those in the Sun Moon Realm the opportunity to wield rule particles, but at a greatly increased consumption of energy.

However, when one in the late-stage of the Sun Moon Realm comprehends the rule particles within one of their Divine Powers thoroughly, naturally they no longer need to use the shell of the Divine Power to propel the force.

The approaches being different, the energy consumed is naturally different too, and at the same time, it brings one a step closer to the Rule Integration Realm.

This direct comprehension of the rule particles within one’s own Divine Power, once successful, will increase the power of this Divine Power by several times when used again.

To ultimately become a cultivator of the Rule Integration Realm after breaking through to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm with either method, one must merge the Divine Powers within the body into one, attaining a rule body, and controlling some of the Rules.

The second unconventional method of breakthrough, since it involves comprehending some rule particles at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, allows one to use these rule particles to nourish one’s own essence, energy, spirit, and soul on a regular basis.

Over time, the essence, energy, spirit, and soul naturally tend to resonate with such Rules, making the later condensation of a rule body and control over the Rules much easier.

To control rule particles in the later stage of the Sun Moon Realm is definitely much harder than during the peak.

But what’s difficult at first may become easier later, and can substantially enhance one’s battle strength.

The first method, which involves igniting the Divine Powers, actually does not require one to know what Rules are, but rather, through the act of ignition, makes the rule particles inside the Divine Powers more active and thus enhances the power.

This naturally has a fundamental difference to comprehending and then moving along with the Rules.

So, could one ignite the Divine Powers, break through to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, and then comprehend the rule particles within one’s own Divine Powers to greatly enhance the power of all three Divine Powers?

The answer is yes, but it’s extremely difficult because once one breaks through to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, the Source Point Space within the body solidifies immediately, and the Divine Powers solidify along with it.

To comprehend the rule particles within a solidified Divine Power is like a blind man trying to comprehend an elephant, no longer able to see the full picture, and is just as difficult as directly comprehending the Rules of the world.

If you could do that, then you would have already been able to break through to the Rule Integration Realm, so why bother lingering at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.

With cultivation, many times once you pass a certain point, trying to go back and make up for it is not impossible, but undoubtedly the difficulty will be exceptionally great.

Faced with the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, Chen Fei naturally would not hesitate and would definitely choose the second method of understanding the Rules within the Divine Powers for his breakthrough.

Indestructible Vision, Planting Beans, and God-slaying Sword—each of these three Divine Powers is extremely strong. If he could continue to enhance them at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, Chen Fei’s battle strength would soar once again.

Chen Fei looked down at the panel displaying information about the three Divine Powers; with the breakthrough of the God-slaying Sword to Great Completion, the status of the three Divine Powers on the panel had undergone some subtle changes.

Under normal circumstances, such changes only occur when there is an opportunity to continue cultivating skill level.

That is to say, the three Divine Powers, which are already at Great Completion, at a certain future time, could continue to be cultivated for increased skill level.

Limit Break!

Chen Fei glanced at the Source Point Space within his body, knowing the time node for the further enhancement of his Divine Power would be when the Source Point Space had expanded to a certain extent.

At that time, Chen Fei would be able to use the panel to continue cultivating the proficiency of his Divine Power and comprehend the rule particles.

A smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face as he shifted his gaze away from the Source Point Space, stood up, and walked out of the cultivation room.

With the exception of Celestial Suppression, all martial arts and Divine Powers had been fully cultivated.

Chen Fei planned to leave the cultivation room first, find a trustworthy person to sell the hundreds of mid-grade Spiritual treasures and unused precious treasures he held.

Then he would buy some pills or spirit materials for cultivation to bring back; by then, Chen Fei would be able to cultivate the Source Point Space within his body while cultivating Celestial Suppression, making better use of his time.

If the cultivation of the Source Point Space was fast enough, maybe he could even cultivate another Divine Power simultaneously, leading it to break its limit.

Other prodigies of the Sun Moon Realm would adopt the second method only to choose one Divine Power to comprehend the rule particles within.

Once they succeeded in comprehension under the resonance between heaven and man, it would naturally induce changes in their Source Point Space, thus breaking through to the peak of the Sun Moon Realm.

After that, trying to comprehend the rule particles in two other Divine Powers would be as difficult for them as it is for those ignited their Divine Power to break through—hard to understand.

But for Chen Fei, using the panel to break the limits of all three Divine Powers and comprehend the rule particles within should not pose too much of a problem.

Thinking of the scene where the power of the three Divine Powers all soared, a smile couldn’t help but emerge on Chen Fei’s face.

Because this was not just about the enhancement of Divine Powers, in the future, in the Rule Integration Realm, all these could lay a solid foundation for Chen Fei.

As soon as Chen Fei left the cultivation room, Yu Dingshan, who was in front of him, turned his head and saw Chen Fei’s aura had changed, and he nodded slightly.

The first time they met, which was just a few months ago, Chen Fei was at the mid-level of the Sun Moon Realm.

Now, in less than a year, Chen Fei had already broken through to the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm; even with the aid of various precious treasures and special cultivation rooms, Chen Fei’s speed of cultivation was still extremely shocking.

“Cultivate well; this way, even if something happens, you will have a chance to survive!” Yu Dingshan said as he looked at Chen Fei.

Upon hearing Yu Dingshan’s words, Chen Fei couldn’t help but be startled.

“Senior, has there been any change at the border recently?” Chen Fei asked, puzzled.

“There have been some changes, but it’s not a big problem; it’s just that the future is unpredictable,” Yu Dingshan shook his head.

The human race had traversed an extremely long time in the Return to Nothing Realm, but sometimes longevity does not mean you can exist forever.

Especially the current situation of the human race, it is hard to say clearly when they might face a grave danger.

“Thank you for your guidance, Senior,” Chen Fei said respectfully with a clasped fist salute.

The future indeed is unpredictable, just like the sudden attack on Sky Sea City that led to so many deaths. If Chen Fei had been just a bit weaker, he would probably have ended up buried in the ground.

At any time, one’s own strength is of the utmost importance.

A moment later, Chen Fei arrived outside the courtyard of those at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm and found Hua Zhichun.

Hua Zhichun was very enthusiastic as he welcomed Chen Fei inside.

“I’ve come looking for you a few times since I heard you were back at Qiankun Mansion, but you were always in deep cultivation,” Hua Zhichun said with a smile as he poured a cup of tea for Chen Fei.

“Is there something you need?” Chen Fei asked, surprised.

“Initially, I wanted to understand the situation in the Glass Space from you, but after the changes occurred in the Glass Space, making it inaccessible, I stopped looking,” Hua Zhichun said, picking up his teacup and taking a sip before continuing, “But then I heard about what you did inside the Glass Space and thought I’d try to get closer to you, so I came looking a few more times.”

Hua Zhichun laughed first as he mentioned this.

His words were half true and half pretense, but when those from the mid-level of the Sun Moon Realm who returned from the Glass Space began spreading tales about Chen Fei, Hua Zhichun indeed had an indescribable mix of emotions.

To face a thousand opponents of the same rank and annihilate them all—despite using the treacherous conditions of the Glass Space to his advantage—it was still unbelievably powerful.

Even if you had hundreds of the same rank in the Sun Moon Realm, you couldn’t withstand that.

If Hua Zhichun himself faced opponents of the same rank at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, not needing many, just over five, regardless of what kind of peak they were, his first choice would be to run.

Hua Zhichun’s talent was definitely top-notch, but no matter how exceptional, it did not equate to fighting same rank opponents in the Sun Moon Realm like that; it was simply outrageous.

Initially, when other members of the Sun Moon Realm within Qiankun Mansion heard this news, they instinctively doubted it, even considering whether this rumor was spread by other alien races to set up Chen Fei for a fall.

Afterwards, upon seeking multiple confirmations and even questioning the head of the Qiankun Mansion in the Rule Integration Realm, the final answer was that Chen Fei indeed had slain that many of the alien races.
