Vaguely.
Yaoyao felt that she had found the path to cultivation.
Put away the array.
The door opened.
Gan Muwan, who had been waiting outside for a long time, came in and saw her mother miraculously healed. Her first reaction was to give Yaoyao a deep bow:
"The great kindness of the senior, I, Gan Muwan, will repay tenfold in the future."
Hearing this tone,
It’s as if she truly believed she could repay this kindness in the future.
Yaoyao smiled and said:
"You and your seventh brother are about to marry, we are all one family, no need for formalities."
...
On the other side.
After Fu Changsheng finished all miscellaneous affairs, he announced that he would enter closed cultivation.
In the secret chamber.
Fu Changsheng focused his thoughts on the Sea of Divine Sense panel:
"Activate the training room"
Buzz!
The panel trembled.
A flood of yellow light surged.
Followed by a brief flicker before his eyes.
The familiar scent of sandalwood in the quiet chamber assailed his nostrils, calming his originally anxious mind instantly.
"Phew"
Sitting cross-legged on a peculiar prayer mat.
Fu Changsheng took a deep breath.
Patted the storage bag.
Dawn light flickered.
A box with star runes landed in front, and with a spell cast into it, four neatly arranged Star Stones came into view.
He pointed at the box.
A Star Stone emitting a faint blue glow floated up, suspended in front.
Fu Changsheng formed seals with both hands, and according to the spell of the "Nine Heavens Star Technique," began to channel Star Power into his body.
His Spiritual Power slowly flowed along the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, converging like streams into a river, ultimately gathering at the Star Source Acupoint in the Dantian. From this point, it circulated along the developed Star Vein, which ran through his entire muscular system, like a starlit pathway, tempering the muscles with Star Power.
Every wash of Star Power.
Felt like countless tiny stars traversing within the muscles, gradually removing impurities bit by bit. Under the nourishment of Star Power, the muscles became tougher and more resilient. The originally slender muscles gradually expanded, like a dry riverbed filled with abundant water, becoming broader.
.....
In cultivation, years pass by unnoticed.
Five years quietly slipped away.
Boom!
While training, Fu Changsheng’s body suddenly shook, as a powerful surge of Star Power erupted from deep within his muscles, sweeping wildly through his entire body along the Star Vein.
Buzz!
The panel trembled.
A line of text flashed through his mind:
[Bone Refining Realm: (1/500)]
"Finally broke through!"
Fu Changsheng’s eyes gleamed with joy. After reaching the Perfect Muscle Refining Realm, he naturally entered the Bone Refining Realm.
After the breakthrough, his muscles seemed woven from starry crystal threads, tough and resilient, capable of withstanding even stronger impacts of Spiritual Power. The flow of power through his muscles felt like a galactic stream, arriving in an instant.
Feeling the changes in his body.
Fu Changsheng was filled with joy, though he had no intention of pushing further, even though there was still a Star Stone in his hand.
Now having perfected the Muscle Refining Realm.
Up next.
He needed to focus on opening all the acupoints in the Upper and Lower Dantians.
This was the second checkpoint for breaking through to the Purple Mansion.
However.
Once all acupoints were opened.
He would require a massive amount of True Essence to fill them, so beforehand, he needed to set up a large Spirit Gathering Array. Luckily, he had collected numerous Spirit Stones in the Blood-colored Forbidden Area.
Patted the storage bag.
Dawn light flickered.
A series of items appeared in the quiet chamber.
A month later.
With a hum.
As the final Array Flag fell, a large Spirit Gathering Array was instantly formed:
"Phew"
Fu Changsheng exhaled lightly.
Sitting at the central hub of the Spirit Gathering Array.
Focusing his mind.
The first to open was the Spiritual Source Acupoint, located at the center of the Lower Dantian, a core gathering place for Spiritual Power in the Lower Dantian.
Once this acupoint was opened, it would be like a deep, bottomless Spiritual Spring, continuously generating the prototype of Spiritual Power. The Restrictions surrounding it resembled a rotating vortex of Spiritual Power.
Fu Changsheng formed complex Dharma Seals with his hands, murmuring the spell silently, as Spiritual Power moved like a Spiritual Snake, drilling towards the acupoint.
Upon touching the Restriction, a faint "sizzling" sound emitted, as if water droplets fell onto a hot iron. He remained calm, adjusting the intensity and frequency of the Spiritual Power, slowly eroding the layer of Restriction.
As time went by.
The Restriction gradually loosened, and the Spiritual Power finally broke through, surging into the acupoint.
In that instant, the acupoint shone brightly, and Fu Changsheng felt a refreshing breath emanating from it, spreading through his meridians, invigorating his body and mind.
In cultivation, years pass by unnoticed.
In the blink of an eye.
Another ten years.
During these ten years
He conquered each acupoint in the Upper and Lower Dantians one by one; with each acupoint opened, his Divine Sense became sharper, and his sensitivity to surrounding Spiritual Power fluctuations grew clearer, and his mana became more substantial.
After prolonged effort.
He not only opened the regular seventeen acupoints in the Upper and Lower Dantians but also the remaining hidden ninety-one acupoints one by one.
Meaning.
He opened a total of one hundred and eight acupoints.
At this moment, he felt that the mana and Divine Sense within him had reached an unprecedented harmony and strength, as if his connection with the universe was even closer.
Next.
Was the final step to break through to the Purple Mansion.
The third step was to absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, refine the Spiritual Mechanism into the Upper Dantian. Only by completing this step could the process of opening the Purple Mansion be considered complete, which is actually simple — awaken the soul first, then push mana up to the Niwan Palace, relocating the soul there, transforming it into a Divine Soul.
The Divine Soul is a spirit, but the spirit is not necessarily a Divine Soul.
The difference between the two lies in the literal difference.
