Chapter 295: Chapter 177: The Fifth Year of Promoting Tao
Translator: 549690339
Having supervised the training of the troops for several days and written the official documents requesting for assistance from various regions in recruiting soldiers, Lu Yuan was finally able to relax and spend some time for himself after the documents were distributed to his disciples to go recruiting.
With a self-disciplined personality, he did not waste any time.
Thus, after just one day of rest, Lu Yuan began to ponder on how he could break through the innate realm.
He already had some clues about breaking through the innate realm.
To reach the innate realm, one must cultivate the martial arts external body with the Martial Dao True Intent; when the two are combined, it is the state of a Grandmaster.
As for the martial arts external body, Lu Yuan had already understood that there was no fixed number after listening to Dao Master Ziyun’s words; it could take any form.
For example, the current situation in Dongting County is plagued by the Poison
Sect, which advocates the Ten Thousand Poison Body, and the doctrine of Ten Thousand Poison True Qi. According to the intelligence obtained by the court from the recent encounters with the Saintess of the Poison Sect:
Yang Jing once speculated that Lan Cai’er’s cultivated external body should be the Ten Thousand Poison True Qi, which she used to assassinate Wuyang Marquis Li Gui.
On the day when Wuyang Marquis Li Gui perished, the area within a hundred feet surrounding his residence turned into a poison domain, causing the death of over a thousand people and affecting several hundred residents nearby.
Previously, at the fall of Baling City, the several hundred defenders at the city gate were killed by Lan Cai’er’s poison gas, causing the city gate to open, and the city was lost.
Survivors from these two incidents managed to escape.
Hence, Lan Cai’er’s specific means were known to the public.
The Ten Thousand Poison True Qi should be her external body of martial arts.
Similarly, the famous Wuan Marquis Bai Mengyang of the court in recent years was said to have cultivated the martial arts external body with the army’s unique Soldier’s Evil Qi.
By using the murderous intent of countless soldiers to form an external body, one can receive the boost of military Qi while in the army, making their strength several times stronger than usual.
Because of this, Bai Mengyang has been almost invincible in all the battles he led, earning him the title of the Military God of Da Yue.
Even in recent years, although Bai Mengyang suffered heavy setbacks and consecutive losses in Xichuan County:
He was still able to block the united Zhou Shu army from entering Yuzhong Prefecture using strong fortifications, despite facing an enemy force that had almost three times the number of troops and four times the number of Inborn Grandmasters.
There was also Yin Huixuan, the first martial arts expert of Liuyang Sect, who cultivated the sect’s Six Yang Qi.
In the six months between the eleventh month of one year and the fourth month of the following year, the Yang Qi rises; these months are collectively referred to as the Six Yang Months.
During these six months, the Yang Qi is at its peak.
Based on the changes in the Yang Qi in each month, the Liuyang Sect refines and combines the Qi with the Three Yang meridians in their hands and feet, and forms their external bodies with the Yang Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Moreover, due to the combination of the external body and one’s flesh, practitioners of this technique do not need to extract their spirit from their bodies. They can directly combine their spirits with the Six Yang Qi within their bodies to form the Martial Dao True Intent.
This method provides a double layer of protection for the flesh and the external body, greatly improving the safety of the Martial Dao True Intent. And it can even serve as a bridge for further integration of the flesh and the external body, making them almost indistinguishable from one’s own body.
With this ingenious method of cultivating an external body for martial arts, the Liuyang Sect has risen to the top of the martial arts world. Their sect has produced countless experts in the second realm and has flourished for thousands of years.
Even Yang Jing himself practiced the “Lotus Tactics” of his clan, which used the clarity of the Qingshui Lotus to form the external body of the Lotus, making it a top defensive divine skill in the Jianghu.
Not limited to these four people, the martial arts external bodies and Martial Dao True Intents of the other innate sects and aristocratic families in the Jianghu are all unique and numerous.
From the many examples, it is evident that Dao Master Ziyun’s words hold true. The forms of external martial arts bodies can be anything in heaven and earth.
However, there is actually one general pattern among these examples. The martial arts external bodies of the grandmasters of various families are mostly based on their respective techniques.
For example, the Poison Sect inherited the Sacred Insect Technique and cultivated the Ten Thousand Poison True Qi as their martial arts external body.
Liuyang Sect inherited the Chi Yang Divine Skill, and they cultivated the Six Yang Qi.
Bai Family inherited the Soldier Transformation Technique, and they cultivated the Soldier’s Evil Qi.
Yang Family inherited the Clear Water Lotus Secret and cultivated the Lotus external body with a pure Qi.
Although the Grandmasters of these sects and families may have differed over generations, their external bodies remained quite similar overall.
Crafting the external body of martial arts with one’s technique as the core was the common choice made by these families.
Lu Yuan did not know the exact principles behind this choice for now.
However, considering the fact that so many families have chosen this path and managed to maintain it for hundreds and thousands of years, even if it’s not the most optimal, it must be the easiest, most popular, and easiest to achieve solution based on experientialism.
So, after learning this, Lu Yuan’s choice for cultivating his martial arts external body was actually quite straightforward.
He would use the Chi Yang Divine Skill as the core to create his own martial arts external body.
The essence of Chi Yang Divine Skill lies in the imagery of the red sun on top of one’s head, and it cultivates mighty and blazing energy.
In fact, the True Qi external form that Lu Yuan has cultivated now is the Red Sun Fire, with the main focus on burning.
“So, based on this deduction, when I cultivate my martial arts external body, I should take the Red Sun Fire as the form of my external body, then control it with my Martial Dao True Intent to form the Chi Yang External Body and use it to break through the innate realm.” Lu Yuan thought while looking through the secret book of Chi Yang Divine Skill and speculating about the innate realm..
