Chapter 61 Boundary Division
Seeing this, Yun Dan quickly comforted him, "Uncle Leng, don't worry. Although this cliff is difficult to climb, I believe that as long as we work hard, we will eventually get out."
"By the way, Uncle Leng, what realm are you at now?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Leng forced a smile, but then quickly changed the subject: "Oh, Little Yun Dan, do you know my current cultivation level?"
Yun Dan scratched his head sheepishly and answered honestly, "Uncle Leng, I haven't studied the classification of realms in the martial arts world in depth, but I have my own unique method of classification."
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiyue couldn't help but become very interested: "Oh? Little Cloud Pill has its own realm division? Tell me quickly, let your uncle help you evaluate it."
Yun Dan nodded and explained in detail: "My classification of martial arts realms is as follows: third-rate martial artists, second-rate martial artists, and first-rate martial artists. All three types of martial artists belong to the acquired realm."
Above that are the Innate Realm, Grandmaster Realm, Great Grandmaster, Celestial Realm, Land Immortal, and finally, the Void Shattering Realm.
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiyue's eyes flashed with surprise: "Oh? The cultivation level of Xiaoyun Dan is divided into nine levels. Do you know the saying 'nine times nine equals one'?"
Yun Dan quickly waved her hand: "No, no, it's just that I think the realm should be like this, it's just something I figured out by myself before."
These levels of understanding I've established are based on my own circumstances, and the later levels are something I came up with out of thin air; I might need to revise them later.
Leng Xiyue smiled slightly and said kindly, "It's alright, it's alright. Everyone has their own understanding and methods."
The same applies to martial arts training. Some people have mediocre talent and will find it difficult to achieve anything even if they practice the most advanced techniques.
Some people are not suited to martial arts, but by chance they find the most suitable path of cultivation for themselves and eventually become masters and heroes.
Therefore, while the division of cultivation realms is important, finding a cultivation method that suits oneself is even more crucial.
Yun Dan nodded as if she understood: "Uncle Leng is right."
It's like some people who seem stupid but are actually wise, because by some chance they met a gluttonous old beggar.
The old beggar, because of his own gluttony, ate the other man's food and had no choice but to teach him a set of palm techniques.
Unexpectedly, this person somehow mastered the skill and eventually became a revered hero in the eyes of the people.
Leng Xiyue nodded in agreement: "That's right. The cultivation of martial arts is not static, but varies from person to person. What suits you best is the best."
Changing the subject, Leng Xiyue began to introduce the realm classification as she understood it: "Then let me tell you about the realm classification as I understand it, which is slightly different from yours."
In the martial arts world, it is divided into the Lesser Harmony Realm, the Middle Harmony Realm, the Greater Harmony Realm, the Lesser Yuan Realm, the Middle Yuan Realm, the Greater Yuan Realm, the Lesser Vehicle Realm, the Greater Vehicle Realm, and finally the Ascension Realm.
And your Uncle Leng, I've just broken through to the Lesser Vehicle realm.
Upon hearing this, Yun Dan's eyes gleamed with admiration: "Impressive! That sounds extraordinary. So, what are the differences between these realms?"
Leng Xiyue patiently explained, "Each realm represents a different stage and level of strength for a martial artist on their cultivation path."
The Lesser Harmony Realm focuses on the concentration and application of internal energy, the Middle Harmony Realm requires further improvement in the purity and control of internal energy, and the Greater Harmony Realm is the perfect combination of internal energy and techniques.
As for the acquired realm you mentioned, it roughly corresponds to the period between the Lesser Harmony Realm and the Greater Harmony Realm in my understanding.
Yun Dan nodded thoughtfully: "I see. What about the Lesser Yuan Realm, the Middle Yuan Realm, and the Greater Yuan Realm?"
Leng Xiyue continued her explanation: "Starting from the Lesser Yuan Realm, martial artists need to begin to comprehend the application of the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth."
Upon reaching the Middle Yuan Realm, one's control over Yuan Qi becomes more effortless; and upon reaching the Great Yuan Realm, one can transform Yuan Qi into one's own power, unleashing unimaginable might.
Yun Dan looked puzzled: "Primordial energy? I don't quite understand that. Is it similar to what I understand as opening up the Ren and Du meridians and cultivating the twelve meridians?"
Leng Xiyue smiled and shook her head: "What you're talking about is about further sublimating one's vital energy to make it easier to circulate energy through one's meridians."
Just like you said, the farther and greater the internal energy you project, the higher your level of cultivation.
The vital energy we're talking about is similar to what you call internal strength.
Yun Dan suddenly realized: "Oh, I see! Then what's so special about the Lesser Vehicle Realm and the Greater Vehicle Realm?"
Leng Xiyue sighed, "The Lesser Vehicle Realm is the key for a martial artist to break through to a higher level, requiring them to comprehend the true essence of martial arts."
The Great Ascension Realm is the pinnacle of martial arts, where one can control the power of heaven and earth, transcending the mortal realm.
Upon hearing this, Yun Dan murmured, "I think it probably means turning internal energy into true qi."
Upon hearing Yun Dan's words, Leng Xiyue asked, "True Qi? What is that?"
Yun Dan responded, "I don't really understand either, but I just have this direction in my mind, which is to cultivate true qi to a state without impurities."
At that time, you will have broken through the void, which is what you call the Ascension Realm.
Leng Xiyue sighed softly: "Little Yun Dan, the Feather Transformation Realm is just a legend. Just listen to it and don't get too hung up on it."
I've only heard rumors that more than 300 years ago, the number one master in the martial arts world had only cultivated to the Mahayana realm, the kind of terrestrial immortal you're talking about.
To this day, no one knows how to break through to the Mahayana realm.
Yun Dan asked, "Uh, is it that difficult? Isn't breaking through the void something all martial artists strive for?"
Leng Xiyue shook her head helplessly: "That's right, breaking through the void means transcending the constraints of the mortal world and reaching a higher realm."
But that makes it even more difficult; it must require exceptional talent and hard work.
Upon hearing Leng Xiyue's words, Yun Dan expressed her gratitude: "I understand, thank you for your explanation, Uncle Leng."
The two continued to discuss the mysteries of the martial arts world in a pleasant atmosphere, with Yun Dan filled with boundless enthusiasm and unwavering determination for the path of cultivation.
In the vast and boundless land of the Spirit Kingdom, a hidden corner is shrouded in night.
At this moment, a majestic figure known as "Lord Night" stood there, his gaze as sharp as a hawk's, as if he could see through all the secrets of the world.
"Lord Ye, there are indeed traces of a fierce fight here."
A subordinate dressed in black, his face hidden under a hood, reported in a low voice, his tone revealing a hint of awe.
Upon hearing this, Lord Ye simply nodded slightly and uttered a short but powerful command: "Continue the investigation."
"As ordered."
Upon receiving the order, the subordinate quickly dispersed among the other men dressed in black, like ghosts in the night, silently blending into the surrounding darkness.
Time flowed by quietly, until another man in black hurriedly returned.
With a solemn expression, he knelt before Lord Ye: "Lord Ye, your subordinates have discovered another fighting scene in the wilderness fifty miles away, and found a unique hidden weapon belonging to Lord Jue."
After speaking, he presented the hidden weapon with both hands, which gleamed with a cold light and was engraved with intricate patterns, exuding a chilling aura.
Lord Ye took the hidden weapon, a playful smile playing on his lips: "Haha... How interesting, even the usually meticulous Jue has a time when he is being chased."
When we meet again someday, I'll definitely make a good laugh at him and see if he's gotten too old to fight anymore.
Upon hearing this, his subordinate trembled slightly, knelt on the ground, and dared not utter a sound.
Lord Ye, with his keen eyes, continued, "Anything else you've discovered?"
"Reporting to you, sir, we have only found this hidden weapon at the location of the fight so far, but I will continue to work hard to uncover more clues."
The subordinate's voice trembled slightly, clearly showing his fear of Lord Ye's authority.
"Alright, you've been investigating for over a month, but still haven't found anything."
Lord Ye's voice was as cold as frost, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
"Continue the investigation; we must find their trail."
"Yes, sir!" The subordinate breathed a sigh of relief and quickly agreed before disappearing into the night like a gust of wind.
Lord Ye stared at the hidden weapon in his hand, his brows furrowed, pondering to himself, "Jue is always cautious in his actions, how could he have left such obvious traces this time? There must be something fishy going on."
A sense of foreboding rose in his heart, and he decided to go to the place where the fight had taken place to find out for himself.
With a swift movement, Lord Ye transformed into a black shadow and sped towards his target.
Meanwhile, in the distant Qin Kingdom, the atmosphere was equally heavy within the main hall of the Shadow Organization.
A man in black knelt before Lord Shadow, his voice low and respectful: "Lord Shadow, thanks to my tireless efforts..."
We discovered that the location where Lords Jue and Yin disappeared was near a seemingly ordinary village in the Ling Kingdom, nestled in a mountain valley.
Lord Shadow's expression was cold, his eyes deep and unfathomable: "Oh? A mere village could cause two of the Shadow Organization's top experts to vanish into thin air? There must be something fishy about this."
The man in black paused slightly, then continued, "My investigation revealed that the villagers are all ordinary people who make a living by farming, and there is nothing unusual about them. But..."
He hesitated for a moment, then finally mustered his courage: "Sir, should we take extreme measures? Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free?"
After all, the safety of these two lords is crucial to the stability of the entire Shadow Organization.
Lord Shadow remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, his voice calm yet resolute.
"Go, thoroughly investigate that village, leave no survivors. I need to know what secrets are hidden behind this."
After receiving the order, the man in black bowed respectfully and withdrew, his figure gradually disappearing into the darkness and shadows.
Only a deathly silence remained in the main hall, and the unfathomable gaze of Lord Shadow seemed to pierce through the darkness, peering into every corner of the world.
