Da Xuan Martial Saint

Chapter 1164: Chapter 571: Cultivating the Divine Skill (Part 2)

The current system panel has undergone many changes compared to the past. After entering the God Realm, many martial arts techniques he previously practiced have all disappeared, along with many complex cultivation techniques.

In their place is a new section.

[Realm: God Realm (Perfect Divine Body)]

[Divine Power Amplification: Three times]

The system panel clearly indicates that his Divine Power True Body is a Perfect Divine Body, and simultaneously provides a threefold divine power boost. This is due to the perfect structure bonus from ten portions of divine power, as opposed to nine portions and below.

Looking further down, there emerges the Divine Power Secret Technique.

[Divine Power Refining Technique: Green Jade True Method (Incomplete)]

[Experience: 0 points]

...

[Divine Power Refining Technique: Spirit Transformation True Method (Incomplete)]

[Experience: 0 points]

...

[Divine Power Refining Technique: Spirit Life Divine Method (Incomplete)]

[Experience: 0 points]

The Green Jade True Method and Spirit Transformation True Method previously recorded are now shown on the system panel, and the Spirit Life Divine Method is similarly displayed here. Undoubtedly, even for divine power secret techniques, the system panel can assist in cultivation.

"Spirit Life Divine Method."

Thoughts of the Spirit Life Divine Method flashed through Chen Mu’s mind, and he began to carefully comprehend it.

The system panel refers to these divine power secret techniques as divine power refining techniques, which seems similar to the body refining of mortal martial arts, but in essence, they are completely different, far more complex than ordinary martial arts body refining.

Mortal martial arts, such as skin toughening and body refinement, use certain fist techniques and medicinal powders to temper the physique. However, they do not require control over each trace of medicinal power, nor control over each cell.

Divine power secret techniques are different.

To cultivate divine power secret techniques, one must first have a foundational understanding of the corresponding origin dao, then apply the origin dao’s powers in a special way to refine divine power. This refining process is incredibly meticulous, penetrating every fundamental unit of divine power, akin to operating a finely crafted instrument.

Only those who have entered the God Realm, possessing the ability to differentiate with a single thought, can achieve this level. Otherwise, even with an understanding of the origin dao, lacking meticulousness, cultivation is impossible.

For Chen Mu.

His Divine Power True Body possesses ten portions of divine power foundation, making the cultivation of divine power secret techniques ten times harder than with one portion of divine power foundation. Yet, given he has ten portions, his mind’s differentiation is also ten times that of a God Realm with one portion, meaning in this regard, all God Realms are the same.

The real difficulty lies in the comprehension of the origin dao.

For instance, the Spirit Life Divine Method requires creation entering dao at the first layer as a gateway, whereas many foundational God Realms must spend countless years cultivating to barely understand origin entering dao. Thus, even with the threshold for cultivating Spirit Life Divine Method reached, mastering the first layer of this divine power secret technique remains extremely challenging.

Yet for Chen Mu, the difficulty felt is different from others. During his detailed comprehension of the Spirit Life Divine Method, the system panel began accruing experience as usual!

This means that with sufficient accumulated experience, the divine power secret technique can also be mastered in one go.

...

On the other side.

Da Xuan World.

Chen Mu’s interface avatar wandered between mountains and rivers, measuring the earth with his steps.

After consideration, he decided to situate the interface within the Central Prefecture. Its location doesn’t actually matter, as the interface avatar, while unable to move the interface freely, can relocate living beings of Da Xuan World with a single thought, making the interface accessible from anywhere in Da Xuan World.

Thus, quietly, Chen Mu arrived at the Central Prefecture—a return after many years.

The Central Prefecture remains prosperous, barely affected by the fires of war from the Cold North, allowing the people to live and work in peace. Chen Mu’s gaze swept over countless cities, though he did glimpse some corruption, which was ultimately minimal.

He paid no mind to these unlawful acts; as the saying goes, crystal-clear water harbors no fish. Resources are limited, thus disputes arise over interests, and martial arts emphasize striving, for without it there is no progress.

His gaze swept past the Capital City.

Within a pavilion, he saw many familiar figures, among them, Yan Jingqing.

This former Inspector, now dressed in an official robe, sat behind a desk handling Ministry of Justice affairs meticulously.

Compared to past years, Yan Jingqing’s aura is more profound, embodying the dignity of a high position, yet slightly weathered. Though a deputy, his deep connection with Chen Mu prevents anyone from conflicting with him, summing up daily affairs of the Ministry of Justice.

Chen Mu observed for a moment without revealing himself to meet Yan Jingqing, instead continuing his gaze elsewhere.

Within the Da Xuan Dynasty Court, the Martial Hall still exists, but the old hall master Lu Zongxi who once entrusted him with the Primordial Chart has already passed away. Now the Martial Hall seems quite desolate, mainly due to the influence of the Seven Profound Sect.

Chen Mu, teaching and spreading doctrine at the Seven Profound Sect, generously shares knowledge with martial artists, influencing deeply. Grandmasters and blood exchange practitioners almost all gathered at the Seven Profound Sect to comprehend the Primordial Chart and Qiankun Chaotic Origin Map, discussing dao collectively.

The Martial Hall now lacks blood exchange experts, with only two elderly grandmasters remaining.

"What is gone, is ultimately gone."

Thoughts of Yu Jiujiang surfaced in Chen Mu’s heart, involuntarily leading to a soft sigh.

He plans to open up a section of the interface, changing the rules of heaven and earth so that the living beings entering will be unbound, greatly extending their lifespan. Yet this can only prolong the life of the living, not resurrect the deceased.

Swoosh.

Chen Mu stepped forward into the depths of the Earthly Abyss in Central Prefecture, reaching out his right hand, slicing forward suddenly.

"Open!"

Interface power was mobilized, void force surged, and the void ahead split open.

While termed opening up an interface, it’s actually more about extracting a section of space from Da Xuan World, isolating it from the main body of Da Xuan World, which is far easier than creating an interface from scratch, utilizing Da Xuan World’s existing structure without dependency.

The area Chen Mu extracted isn’t large, about ten miles wide, a scale causing no impact on Da Xuan World’s heaven and earth. Though it sounds small, the interface he intends isn’t for proliferating mortal beings, but as his domain’s future Cave Mansion, serving as Da Xuan World’s future ’Heavenly Palace’, this range suffices.

Using Void Entering Dao realm and realm master status, extracting such space isn’t difficult, and once isolated internally and externally, Chen Mu began altering this space’s internal heaven and earth rules.

This proved a more tedious process.

Requiring considerable heart power.

Currently, Chen Mu dedicates all his mental energy to the divine power true body, for comprehending the Spirit Life Divine Method, resulting in somewhat slow efficiency in altering rules via the interface avatar.

However, Chen Mu isn’t in a rush, as there’s much for him to accomplish in Da Xuan World. He intends to refine a soul heart cultivation method, alongside a martial arts training method based on the creation dao, enabling direct advancement to the God Realm.

If worldly martial arts were left to develop gradually, through numerous martial artists paving the way over time, the delay would be extensive. Chen Mu isn’t entirely altruistic; he carries considerations for Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue, and others, hoping those close to him can cultivate more perfected martial arts methods.

The saying goes, when one achieves dao, chicken and dogs ascend.

With him as the pathfinder breaking heavenly restrictions, reaching God Realm first, future living beings aspiring to become gods will find greatly reduced difficulty.

For Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue, and others, they may even receive more privileges. Even if relying solely on their own talents makes entering the God Realm tough, once Chen Mu reaches higher levels, he could elevate their life levels to the God Realm, akin to Jianmu Divine Monarch enlightening Xunmu.

Though all this depends on Da Xuan World’s successful navigation through the current demonic calamity.
