Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 324 - 269: Breaking Through the Bottleneck, Entering Qi Cultivation Divinity Transformation
Chapter 324: Chapter 269: Breaking Through the Bottleneck, Entering Qi Cultivation Divinity Transformation
“Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter: Breakthrough +3 (1%)”
During this period, Wang Sheng certainly did not use all his time to search for that type of pure spiritual energy. In order to perform the Harvesting Technique smoothly, he also practiced the Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter, eventually reaching the stage of three Breakthroughs.
Aside from a certain degree of enhancement in Divine Thought, after the third Breakthrough, the self-harming aspect of the Harvesting Technique was finally entirely removed.
However, he had not yet captured that type of pure spiritual energy during the breakthrough, so he had to set it aside for the time being.
Of course, the effects of the Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter reaching three Breakthroughs were not limited to just this one aspect.
The removal of the self-harming part of the Harvesting Technique seemed like a byproduct of the three Breakthroughs.
...
As a progress bar for Cultivation Techniques, after the third Breakthrough, the Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter, like other Cultivation Techniques, displayed a new term.
“Spirit World: 1%”
Wang Sheng’s understanding of the Spirit World wasn’t particularly deep, but after some research, he realized its function was to use one’s Divine Thought to construct a world of spiritual power, somewhat similar to the place Heavenly Father took him to.
However, his Spirit World was not mature, and could even be described as immature, resembling the “Five Internal Organs Containing God” in that it was merely a name with virtually no function, and it lacked Divine Skills.
So, after researching for a while, he stopped and devoted his energies to capturing pure spiritual energy.
The Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter reaching three Breakthroughs, combined with the captured pure spiritual energy, meant that the Harvesting Technique had been completely perfected, so as soon as he entered the place of seclusion, Wang Sheng immediately employed the Harvesting Technique.
This pure spiritual energy was not simple.
As Huangtian had said, this spiritual energy was the surplus consumption after human activities.
In reality, this surplus energy that had just appeared was not pure and was even quite messy; such energy was actually unusable.
This energy would drift around the world for a while, and only after the stray thoughts vanished—which was also when the energy was about to disappear—could the spiritual energy captured at that moment be truly pure.
He hadn’t wasted the past year, having researched quite a bit.
Indeed, because of this, capturing this kind of pure spiritual energy was quite exhausting and one couldn’t simply collect a large quantity at will.
At the same time, since this energy emanated from the human body, places with more people had more of it.
However, the more energy there was, the more chaotic it became, and capturing pure spiritual energy became even more difficult.
One could only say that places with more people and those with fewer each had their own advantages and disadvantages.
Wang Sheng directly captured a portion of the pure energy and began absorbing it.
Absorbing this kind of energy, he did not feel any discomfort; the pure energy directly integrated into his Divine Thought, enhancing it.
“Indeed, the effects are far better than those of an elixir!”
The Nine-flavor Calming Heart Pill was already a top-grade spiritual pill, but compared to this kind of energy that was replenished in a direct, crude way, it was still inferior.
“I want it all!”
He never thought of using only one method to enhance his Divine Thought; attacking the problem from both ends was the true path to success.
On one hand was the pure energy, and on the other, the Nine-flavor Calming Heart Pill. Under the dual enhancement of both, Wang Sheng’s Divine Thought gradually grew stronger.
Most crucially, Wang Sheng’s Divine Thought was not merely simple spiritual power; it was connected to his Qi-Blood Power, and as his Divine Thought grew stronger, his Qi-Blood Power also kept strengthening.
Although the increase in Qi-Blood Power was not as pronounced as the enhancement of Divine Thought, this unexpected joy was still more than welcome.
Half a year passed in this manner, and the midpoint of the year 545 in the Great Zhou calendar arrived.
“It’s close!”
“Qi Cultivation to Divinity Transformation bottleneck: 98.5%”
In half a year, Wang Sheng absorbed an unknown amount of pure spiritual energy and Nine-flavor Calming Heart Pills, greatly improving his Divine Thought.
The unnatural bottleneck was rapidly breaking down.
Clearly, as long as Divine Thought was sufficiently strong, such bottlenecks would cease to exist.
But this was not without cost; other than practicing his Inner Core Skill, Wang Sheng basically did not practice anything else during the past half year.
“It’s all worth it.”
He still had a large reserve of pure spiritual power, planning to use it all at once to break through the last of the bottleneck, as breaking through was more important than anything else.
“Let’s begin; this energy should be enough!”
Pure energy was difficult to collect but was incredibly potent.
Wang Sheng did not hesitate, absorbing all the pure spiritual energy he had saved.
A vast amount of energy spread throughout his body, the power of Divine Thought nearly materializing, subtly activating the spiritual pills.
This was not a bad thing; the activation of the elixirs indicated that the unnatural bottleneck was beginning to loosen.
He felt joy in his heart and began to focus on absorbing the pure spiritual energy.
His Divine Thought continued to strengthen visibly.
“Qi Cultivation to Divinity Transformation bottleneck: 98.7%… 98.9%… 99.5%… 100%”
At a certain moment, Wang Sheng felt his Divine Thought undergo a certain degree of sublimation, as if experiencing some qualitative change.
Under the perspective of Divine Thought, the world seemed to change and reveal a certain essence.
But when Wang Sheng tried to closely feel this sensation, he seemed unable to perceive anything, almost as if nothing had happened.
“Has my Divine Thought’s strength reached the next stage, but because the realm has not been achieved and there is no inner core, this vast Divine Thought is drawn but not released, appearing to both be there and not?”
Wang Sheng had realized the underlying reasons.
Originally, if he had followed the standard procedure, with the progress bar steadily increasing, he would still have solved the bottleneck, but that would have been by a more cunning or, shall we say, an unconventional method.
However, he chose to break through this bottleneck by strengthening his Divine Thought, and instead of saying that the progress bar was completed, it was more accurate to say it had disappeared.
This method was simpler and more brute force; therefore, his vast Divine Thought could not be fully utilized.
There was only one way to solve this issue.
“Breakthrough!”
“The bottleneck has vanished, and it’s time to enter the Refining Qi into God stage!”
Wang Sheng entered the state of inner visualization.
If Refining Essence to Qi was likened to turning lesser medicine into greater medicine, then Refining Qi into God was akin to gathering the greater medicine.
The first stage of Refining Qi into God, the breakthrough, was specifically divided into two steps: harvesting the greater medicine and using it to propel through the bottleneck.
Although he could not unleash the full might of his current Divine Thought, its enhancement was undeniably objective, so naturally there was no issue with the breakthrough.
“First is the harvesting of the greater medicine!”
With a subtle movement of his Divine Thought, Wang Sheng began to draw upon the greater medicine that had long been entrenched in his lower Dantian.
He was like a herb gatherer scaling a mountain, who had discovered a priceless Wild Ginseng and dared not dig it up carelessly.
He had to meticulously remove the surrounding soil little by little, to reveal its true form and to carefully discern every vein of the mountain ginseng, fearing to overlook even a single root and cause damage to the Wild Ginseng.
Now, the greater medicine was this very Wild Ginseng.
Fortunately, the greater medicine itself was also the source of the Divine Thought, both being one, so the process of clarifying its veins with Divine Thought was quite simple, not as difficult as imagined.
However, Wang Sheng did not dare to take this process lightly; it demanded his full attention and spirit, even with the progress bar as a safety net, some tasks still had to be completed.
Before long, the greater medicine had been completely “unearthed.”
The first step of the breakthrough phase, the harvesting of the greater medicine, was now fully completed.
Next came the most perilous step, the breakthrough.
At this juncture, his attention and Divine Thought were entirely focused.
He started to guide the movement of the greater medicine.
The greater medicine emitted a mysterious spirit light, illuminating the Dantian, but as the Divine Thought drew it forward, the source of this spirit light began to shift, moving from the lower Dantian to the middle Dantian.
This step could not suffer any pause or distraction; otherwise, the greater medicine would escape.
Wang Sheng was completely engrossed, even unaware of the appearance of a new progress bar.
“Refining Qi into God. Breakthrough: 1%”
The greater medicine breakthrough had officially commenced!
Like a fish leaping through the Dragon Gate, crossing over the impasse, it happened at this moment!
In this phase, the stronger the Divine Thought, the more stable the guidance.
The spirit light of the greater medicine continued shifting positions, with Wang Sheng unaware of how much time had elapsed.
Though the human body is small, it is imbued with the cycles of heaven, and the process of breakthrough, seemingly a short journey, was, in reality, farther than expected.
Through it all, Wang Sheng’s Divine Thought remained incredibly stable, encountering no issues.
After an indeterminate period, the greater medicine had reached just outside its final destination, its spirit light already shining into the middle Dantian’s chamber.
This was the most critical step.
To enter was to ascend to heaven, to not was to let the medicine flee.
Without hesitation, Wang Sheng continued to guide the greater medicine through the barrier with Divine Thought!

As the greater medicine slowly entered the middle Dantian, Wang Sheng felt his control over the Divine Thought grow stronger, and his body underwent a transformation, as if evolving.
Once again, Wang Sheng sensed that unnatural bottleneck.
“It” sought to disrupt the greater medicine!
At this moment, if it truly succeeded, he would not even have the chance to start over; his only possibility would have been to achieve enlightenment in death.
However, his Divine Thought was exceedingly powerful, and such a force could not at all disrupt the process of the greater medicine entering the middle Dantian. Everything was progressing in a positive direction.
As the spirit light of the greater medicine gradually filled the void space of the middle Dantian, the breakthrough was nearing completion.
But just then, something seemed to take notice of him, and the force of the bottleneck suddenly intensified.
“!!!”
Wang Sheng was startled.
His Divine Thought was almost shaken, which at any regular time would have been inconsequential, but now could unleash a chain reaction. If the Divine Thought was shaken, next would be the greater medicine.
At that moment, his Qi Blood Power and Blood Qi stirred, seemingly with endless Qi Blood Power joining the fray, stabilizing the disturbed Qi Blood Power instantly, like an unmovable rock, not at all impacting the greater medicine.
A close shave with disaster!
After that wave passed, the greater medicine faced no more obstacles.
In a daze, the greater medicine successfully broke through, the spirit light illuminating this chamber!
