Chapter Sixteen: The Realm of Yuan's Return

  "Damn it, what should I do now? I feel that my vital energy is about to dissipate, and if my vital energy dissipates, my soul will disappear in this world!"

  "Isn't it just the sixth layer of Qi Refining, the Huiyuan Boundary?" Yan's voice lazily transmitted over.

  Zhang Hao felt more at ease upon hearing this voice.

  "Your body can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, why can't it absorb its own innate primordial energy?! The sixth layer of Qi cultivation, Gathering Yuan Boundary, is to absorb the hidden primordial energy in the body's acupoints into the Sea of Consciousness. Only when the primordial energy enters the Sea of Consciousness will future cultivation become smoother. Moreover, after the primordial energy has been nourished by the spiritual energy, it will be even more powerful when condensing the Primordial Spirit."

  Zhang Hao listened to Jiong's words, as if he had been suddenly enlightened, and a gleam of understanding flashed across his mind.

  Every pore on his body suddenly closed up completely.

  A subtle force gradually emanates from the depths of the ocean of consciousness, drawing out the primordial energy hidden within the bodily orifices and slowly absorbing it into the ocean of consciousness.

  As the primordial energy entered his body, Zhang Hao's mind gradually relaxed. After about half a time, he saw that inside the sea of consciousness, there was an additional mass of primordial energy like chaos. The primordial energy gathered together and looked like a human figure from the outside, but this human figure was in a semi-illusory state and could not be seen clearly. The mouth, nose, and facial features were just a water-patterned shape.

  Only by breaking through the Golden Elixir boundary and cultivating his original divine soul, this illusory shape of yuanqi would condense into a real entity, identical to Zhang Hao's true appearance, vivid and lifelike.

  The thin fog around the primordial energy of the sea of knowledge dispersed a bit, and the heaven and earth around the primordial energy became clearer.

  Zhang Hao felt that his thinking had also become much clearer, and his physical reactions had accelerated several times.

  "Is this the boundary of Yuan Hui?"

  Zhang Hao was somewhat incredulous, but he closed his eyes and carefully sensed the primordial energy within his Sea of Consciousness. Slowly, he opened up all the pores on his body, and the primordial energy within his Sea of Consciousness did not show any signs of disappearing or dispersing.

  He let out a sigh of relief.

  Slowly spat out a mouthful of turbid air, and stood up.

  It wasn't until I stood up that I realized my clothes were soaked through, and my body felt a kind of exhausted fatigue.

  "After all, I've managed to save my life. As long as I don't die, there's still hope!" Zhang Hao thought to himself as he walked out of the house, gazing up at the countless stars in the sky, his heart still filled with a lingering sense of fear."

  This path of cultivation is fraught with danger, it seems that I underestimated the difficulty of this cultivation. This is just the stage of cultivating Qi and it's already so perilous, let alone what's to come later.

  Life is but a brief few decades, and I was mediocre in my past life. Since heaven has brought me to this wonderful world, I will strive to adapt and strive to seize opportunities.

  Whatever realm you can reach, just go for it!

  Thinking of this, Zhang Hao's heart was relieved of its pent-up frustration, and his pale face gradually regained its rosy complexion.

  Suddenly, as if there was some kind of response in his heart.

  He looked up at the heavenly ladder that descended from the inner door disciples and vaguely felt a resonance between his heart and something inside.

  Zhang Hao closed his eyes and sensed it with his divine consciousness.

  Only a majestic sword energy soared into the sky from the depths of the misty clouds, and what resonated with me from afar should be this sword energy.

  Hao Ran Sword? Zhang Hao smiled bitterly as he gazed at the mountain peaks shrouded in mist and clouds.

  "The time has not yet come, be patient and wait! One day I will come for you." Zhang Hao gazed at the distant turbulent clouds and fog, silently saying to himself in the direction that had a faint connection with him.

  The Cultivation of Qi has now broken through six layers.

  Zhang Hao didn't have much joy in his heart, only breaking through the practice of Qi could he cultivate many techniques.

  Looking at the jade slip described as a move called - Huo Feng Xiang Wu (Fire Phoenix Soaring Dance).

  Converging spiritual energy transforms into the power of the Five Elements' fire, condensing into a 10-meter-long phoenix shape, burning everything in its path. Its might is determined by the degree of concentration of the spiritual energy.

  Another method is called "Dragon Walking Step", which can move left and right, creating an illusory body shape that makes it impossible for people to lock onto.

  This method of practicing qigong can be cultivated in four layers.

  However, practicing this technique requires proficiency in finger techniques. When the technique is activated, it triggers the transformation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If the finger technique is not proficient and the activation speed is too slow, I'm afraid the spiritual power has not been triggered, and one will be killed by the enemy.

  The finger method is a basic skill that every qigong practitioner must practice.

  Looking at his slender fingers like jade, Zhang Hao smiled slightly.

  There are countless finger techniques, and a good basic finger technique can save a lot of time in practicing finger independence.

  Zhang Hao decided to look for some good fingerings anyway.

  "Dead old man! Do you have any good basic fingerings?" Zhang Hao said spiritually towards the cup.

  He let out a yawn, although he was a spiritual body, at night he would still instinctively fall asleep, and didn't know whether it was real or fake sleep.

  "Finger method!" The wine glass was steady for a moment, and he concentrated his mind and thought for a while.

  Zhang Hao waited patiently.

  After a while, stroking his beard, he said: "There are several methods of finger training, but the one that suits you best is the Thousand Illusion Finger!"

  "But...!" Jian paused for a moment, looking at Zhang Hao.

  "Is it very difficult?" Zhang Hao asked.

  "This finger technique training must be done in water, and each round of training must last for half a stick of incense time, only then can it stimulate the sensitivity of your fingers!"

  "This finger technique training was originally invented by a water monster, because when it transformed into human form, its ten fingers had not fully transformed into the shape of a human, and the flexibility of the ten fingers was not enough, so it worked hard to train its finger techniques."

  I'm now passing on this set of finger techniques to you, if you want to learn, then study hard! After finishing speaking, Zhang Hao felt that he had acquired a new training method for his mind.

  "Qian Huan Zhi."

  "After refinement, it can quickly trigger spiritual power, and the finger technique is unpredictable, the highest finger technique created by Lu Ji, the female demon of Luohe River."

  Zhang Hao looked at the two characters "Lv Ji" and felt a faint sense of familiarity in his heart.

  Lü Ji muttered to himself, and suddenly a beautiful woman with the body of a snake and a tail appeared in his mind, accompanied by a cold smile and icy words of hatred - "There's not a single good man in this world."

  On the turbulent Luo River, a woman with a snake-like tail floated on the emerald waves, her bright blue eyes fixed intently on him. The overwhelming pressure made him feel as if he was suddenly lifted by a massive wave and then heavily dropped back down.

  Zhang Hao hastily withdrew his concentrated spiritual energy from the two words "Lü Ji".

  Everything has returned to calmness, opening eyes and the east already floated a faint light.

  "You stinky little brat!" This Lü Ji was a river demon from ancient times, how could she have a spiritual connection with you? It's really strange, in your past life, you must also be a demon, and one who is flirtatious and leaves emotions everywhere.

  Hehe laughed loudly after finishing speaking.

  Zhang Hao retreated from the terrifying pressure, his mind still unsettled. Many things in this world were still not adapted to him. A person's name could be felt with one's spirit, and then a powerful force would suppress oneself. She must be a very powerful existence!

  Zhang Hao thought while gazing at a red sun rising in the east, floating above the distant mountains.
