Chapter 203
203 Mind state : Mind above nature
When Ruruo and Wang were both concentrating on checking through the content of the star immemorial body art, someone else was observing their location with some doubts.
As early as the power of stars landed here, the remnant soul started to observe them.
The scary thing was that the eyes of the remnant soul seemed to contain some galaxy of stars, deep and could penetrate space.
It seemed even Situ couldn’t find it, in that case, it explained a fundamental problem.
The remnant soul probably is some scary existence. But that was something that everyone was oblivious to.
It was a remnant soul that stayed in the crystal that Fengxi always has on her.
This time the remnant soul seemed to be thinking about something before eventually saying, ” ‘Fenger’ you should probably go to the other side and get some experience from your parents’ cultivation system. I’m always feeling that it is somehow different from the existing one. Even though one can assume it to be the same, there is a huge difference. That technique they obtained just now is also something worth studying.” just as they wanted to continue speaking she heard the couple discuss something.
“Well, wife! I think this volume is not bad, but I can only get some inspiration and combine it with my current nine-turn golden body art.” as he spoke he also checked out the immense star energy in Ruruo’s hand.
“Why don’t you use the Qi codex to try absorbing the star energy? I have a version of thr star refinement here, it’s probably easier for you to cultivate it. After that, you could even comprehend the true meaning of the star to the divine ability level. This might have a great impact on the inner universe you have. You could see how the power of stars was almost capable of rivaling the power of heaven and earth, in that case, I think we should have both.” Wang said this before pushing a bunch of information into Ruruo’s sea of knowledge.
.....
When she heard their talk she seemed to have gone into a daze.
“Master, do you want to leave and travel the wirld as you said,” Fengxi asked.
But the remnant soul kept silent before saying, ” You should indeed leave this place to travel. But what your parents said is true. You should at least be capable of beating one of them at the same level. Hiw about I give you other new tricks and help you improve your combat power.” the voice came from the remnant soul but its attention was on the couple.
“Okay master.” Fengxi was very excited.
When Wang on the other side had just discussed with Ruruo and gained some insights so had she on what to do next.
At the same time, he had just realized something about techniques he had learned and combined over the years.
He no longer needed to run around looking for new techniques, he could focus on the ones he had until they couldn’t be improved anymore.
Besides, the potential value might continue rising and this would be very beneficial to him.
“Staying in the back near the river might not be very conducive for Fengxi anymore, we should probably ask her to come to this side.” Wang also mentioned something he thought to be important.
After reading through the star immemorial body and star refinement art given by Wang, Ruruo seems thoughtful.
She could feel that the star crystal was very high-quality energy and using Qi codex would ensure that regardless of the means used on it, they can only be converted into dust. But the energy of stars made her very tempted.
She could feel it could enhance her current strength and realm.
She continued sitting by the Bodhi tree silently analyzing the two techniques and also slowly digesting some star power.
On the other side after Situ appeared the Axe gang leader looked at him suspiciously.
“What was that just now, did you get yourself a successor? But it didn’t seem like that, thst kid didn’t have any breadth of stars on him.”
But Situ seemed not shocked, ” I can’t take him as a successor, besides, he cultivated the old technique to the seventh level, back then, I also reached that point and when I couldn’t find my way forward, I started to make my way. What I gave was only some guide, and someone as smart as him should understand.”
The axe gang leader was too lazy to hear all this as his attention was attracted somewhere else.
But another old man seemed to be standing not far away, said, “Indeed, each of us went out of our way, this was also how we managed to achieve a law state. Besides, cultivating other people’s already established paths, will only destroy potential.” as for what he didn’t say, everyone understood.
Back then how many people were standing on the same starting grounds as them? But many seemed to have obtained chances that allowed them to move ahead of them. But this was a dead end, even now they are still struggling in the back.
Taking a predecessor’s path as one’s own is no different from cutting off one’s oath.
At that time it was hard to say what was better, but the ambitious younger selves seemed to have been lucky in making such a choice. After entering a law state, even opportunities that exist start to isolate people. It is okay to say that those that have an almost inherited law state, face more difficulties on the path.
Wang has taken the path of the body and could feel that his consciousness and even soul tend to fuse with his flesh.
But he is far of from that level, if achieved, he can completely have an immortal body.
In essence, this just means rebirth from a drip of blood is possible.
But he didn’t bother to waste his time thinking about the extreme path of the mortal body.
When he looked at the system panel and saw that potential was there and the probability of raising it in the future, his eyes gained focus.
He had already a way forward, and at the same time could see that something was missing.
In that case, he might as well go ahead and improve the body art on his panel until it completely enters the level of law.
In that way, his foundation would be stable, more than that he was more interested in taking thr Cosmic void art a step further.
Expanding his spirit and consciousness could be said to be also beneficial, to his practice.
“You seem to have made up your mind about your way forward. Are you still going to take the same path as before?” when Wang was just regaining his fighting spirit he heard Ruruo’s voice and looked to the side only to see her looking at him with some amazement.
When Wang determined his path to take, the whole person seemed to have changed. Though he was still the same Rurup could feel that his spirit had undergone some change.
He looked at Ruruo with some puzzlement on his face. ” How did you know? I’m sticking to my path. Taking the physical body as a foundation is not necessarily any weaker than any other way. By the way, what about you? Haven’t you already arrived at the peak state? How come I can feel like your power is increasing rapidly and your realm is not changing?”
Indeed, Ruruo was refining her body using star energy. After having studied the two arts, she simplified them to the most basic state.
When the couple stepped into the path of martial arts, each had to refine the bones, undergo blood and marrow cleansing, and Ruruo was using her inspiration to further improve her body potential.
From time to time, in Ruruo’s body, some organs could be incapable of bearing the overwhelming power of stars, so she is forced into using the vitality divine ability.
But in the end, the speed of healing couldn’t surpass that of destruction.
In that case, she could only grit her teeth and slowly continue to try to repair her internal organs.
She could occasionally observe Wang only to realize the change.
But after asking about it, he also gave her a response, so she could try to calm down, and she started the conversation.
In the end, she was just listening and he was talking.
Buy surprisingly, every time her body healed, some star power was fusing with that part.
Her blood also seemed to be changing slightly. She was just thinking about it but never dreamt of this happening since her body was becoming stronger at a very fast rate. Though painful, it was very useful.
At the same time, she could feel some intimacy towards the stars, at this time she understood what Wang meant.
Not only that, but Wang could feel that Ruruo was changing from the fundamental level.
Seeing the changes happening to Ruruo the remnant soul observing the couple was very scared.
“What the hell is with these two monsters? Is their daughter even capable of beating them in the same realm at all? Even with me teaching her for a century, it might not change the result at all.”
Looking dejected, the remnant soul looked at Wang to see that the temperament of the whole person was changing.
“Damn! Mind above nature! He entered the fourth stage of his mental state. How is this possible, what realization could he have at such a young age?”
