Chapter 493: Chapter 36: Six Realms of Martial Saint, Advancing to Martial Saint! (Part 2)
"Even so, he could fly with his flesh body, the speed was about one-third of his running speed..."
Perfected Muscle Refining, flying speed of one hundred kilometers per second!?
This...
Lin Chen was somewhat stunned; this flying speed was incomparably faster than his Divinity Transformation Perfection.
At this point, even divine techniques might not be able to catch up, right?
"Perfected Muscle Refining... perhaps could contend with Integration Cultivators?" Lin Chen speculated.
However, he had heard that Integration Cultivators mastered the Power of Domain.
What exactly is Domain power? Lin Chen still did not know, so he couldn’t make a conclusion.
"So, Yue Saint... what comes next in the Blood Refining Realm?"
Lin Chen eagerly asked.
Reaching Perfection in the Muscle Refining Realm, strength and speed had reached a certain limit, so there should be no further path forward, right?
The limits of strength and speed seem to be the limits of the flesh body...
Yet, in the Six Realms of Martial Saint, after perfecting Muscle Refining, there were still the Blood and Qi Refining realms.
What were the advancements in these last two realms?
Yue Saint sighed and said, "Alas, long ago... there were only four realms for a Martial Saint. The limits of skin, flesh, bone, and muscle were the limits of a Martial Saint..."
"Until, three thousand years ago, the appearance of Long..."
Hearing this, Lin Chen was intrigued.
Long, a mighty figure who left a profound mark in the history books of Blue Star.
He was also the only Martial God in the history of the Human Race.
The entire Blue Star was enclosed by a special barrier, and initially, the reason the Human Race dared to explore what that barrier was.
The reason they dared to break that barrier was because of Long, because of the emergence of this Martial God.
When Long was around, the Human Race was dominant in the entire First Martial Realm.
Until Long vanished, and the nine Martial Saints who went with him never returned, the Human Race fell into a prolonged period of decline.
Until Lin Chen appeared, the Human Race rose once again.
In fact, the influence or potential Lin Chen exhibited surpassed that of Long.
In just under eighty years, Lin Chen had achieved the strength equivalent to a Martial Saint.
Among the entire Human Race, he was one of the very few.
"Back then, there were only four realms for a Martial Saint. There was no path forward after achieving Perfection in Muscle Refining."
"Until Long’s appearance, he pioneered the Blood and Qi Refining realms... and reached the end of the Martial Saint path, creating the Martial God Realm."
"So, in history, there was only one Martial God, and that was Long..."
Yue’s eyes held a hint of reverence and envy.
"For thousands of years, I have been following in his footsteps but have yet to reach his height..."
"However, with the experience left by Long, I have also successfully completed the Blood and Qi Refining realms and reached the end of the Martial Saint."
Yue pointed to the yellowed booklet in Lin Chen’s hand, and said:
"This booklet is the notes left by Long, it records not only his experiences but also the cultivation insights of dozens of Martial Saints including myself."
"I believe it will be of great use to you."
Lin Chen nodded and solemnly put away the booklet.
At the same time, Yue continued to impart his experience:
"Unlike the previous four realms, the Blood and Qi Refining realms are pursued simultaneously."
"Blood Refining is about refining the essence blood of a martial artist; it is a process of allowing one’s Qi and Blood Value to surge once more."
"Before entering the Blood Refining Realm, the Qi and Blood Value can reach a maximum of 150 million. Upon achieving Minor Achievement in the Blood Refining Realm, it can reach 300 million Qi and Blood."
"With Perfection in Blood Refining, the Qi and Blood Value exceeds 900 million. The Blood Refining Realm is the stage where a martial artist’s Qi and Blood Value skyrockets."
"It was Long, who elevated the limit for Human Race martial artists another level."
After pausing for a moment, Yue continued:
"However, relying solely on bodily strength can put one at a disadvantage against certain special demon beasts."
"For example, when facing demon beasts with mind control or illusion abilities, no matter how strong one may be... they could still be controlled."
"Therefore, while practicing Blood Refining, Long pioneered what is known as Qi Refining!"
"What is Qi Refining? It is refining the Qi of the heaven and earth, it is the Essence, Qi, and Spirit of a martial artist!"
"Once Qi Refining begins, a special kind of energy field forms around the martial artist. Within this field, the martial artist’s Martial Spirit and personal strength will experience a great leap."
"Even when facing opponents with special techniques, they can be greatly weakened, or even unaffected!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen suddenly thought of something. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"In the Qi Refining Realm, one’s body forms its own energy field... How is this not like the domain of Integration Cultivators?"
Lin Chen pondered over this.
The Will of Heaven and Earth in the Cultivation Realm is called momentum on Blue Star.
And the domain in the Cultivation Realm is called aura or the Qi of heaven and earth on Blue Star!
So, once reaching the Martial Saint Realms of Blood and Qi Refining, martial artists seem to truly have the power to contend with or even defeat Integration Cultivators.
"Hmm, this kind of aura is very mystical, you should try to feel it yourself?"
With that, Yue looked at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen understood and observed Yue carefully with his Divine Sense.
In Lin Chen’s eyes, Yue stood there quietly, but it seemed as if the heavens and earth were centered around Yue.
It was as if he could control everything, just standing there gave one the feeling of invincibility, a desire to submit...
"No doubt, this... this is definitely the Power of Domain!"
After hearing Yue’s descriptions, Lin Chen was eighty to ninety percent sure in his mind.
The strength acquired after a Martial Saint practices Blood and Qi Refining is absolutely not inferior to an Integration Cultivator.
In fact, in some sense, the two are very similar.
Both excel in domains; the difference being that martial artists focus more on themselves, while Integration Cultivators focus more on techniques.
Having figured this out, Lin Chen then shared his speculation with Yue.
After hearing this, Yue nodded and said:
"All laws spring from the same source, the fifth and sixth Martial Saint Realms, mastering the powers of Integration Cultivators, is it?"
"In this way, it makes sense... Thus, Yue’s strength should be after Integration’s Mahayana stage!"
"Since, the gap in strength between him and me is too large... he could kill me in less than a breath. Therefore, he is definitely beyond the Unity Stage."
Lin Chen’s eyes revealed a look of surprise upon hearing this.
Thus, he had a general understanding of the strength of the final realms of martial artists.
Martial Saints are equivalent to Returning Void to the Unity Stage.
Whereas Martial Gods have reached the fabled Mahayana Realm.
The gap in strength between them is quite large.
Previously, martial artists had always been suppressed by cultivators, so it was unexpected to see them regain ground in the last few realms.
Perhaps it was because Long paved this path, and it has yet to have clear distinctions.
Unlike the Immortal Realm, where the division of realms is not as detailed.
The reason is simple: too few have reached this realm.
...
Lin Chen learned a lot about the Martial Saint Realm from Yue.
Yue was very busy, he only stayed with Lin Chen for a short while before returning to the First Martial Realm.
Without his garrison, problems could arise at any moment there.
Lin Chen, on the other hand, studied the yellowed booklet Yue left for him.
The content of the booklet was not much, merely thousands of words, and Lin Chen committed all of it to memory in no time.
But these few thousand words encapsulate the combined cultivation insights of dozens of Martial Saints throughout Human Race history, and Long.
It was of great help to Lin Chen, allowing him to avoid many detours in future Martial Saint cultivation.
However, what was more important at the moment were the two catties of Sixth Tier demon beast Flesh Essence Yue had given him.
Lin Chen, after adjusting his state to the peak, directly took out half a catty.
"Whether I can break through to the Martial Saint Realm, hinges on this..."
A slight movement in his heart, he swallowed all the Flesh Essence into his abdomen.
Soon, the violent energy made Lin Chen feel a burst of pain in his body.
If it were an ordinary Martial Emperor, consuming this Flesh Essence could probably make them explode. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
But Lin Chen was at the Martial Emperor Peak, and with nearly ten million Qi and Blood Value, he was just a step away from the Martial Saint.
Lin Chen continuously practiced the tenth generation of the Martial Arts Breathing Technique, and the pure energy within the Sixth Tier Flesh Essence propelled Lin Chen to keep striving for the Martial Saint Realm.
His Qi and Blood Value also completed the final breakthrough.
This session of cultivation lasted for three days and three nights.
Until at a certain moment, Lin Chen felt his whole body lighten, as if some invisible shackle had been broken.
At the same time, Lin Chen’s consciousness once again entered that void space.
