With a slash of his sword, Sword Qi swept out and slashed towards the sea of clouds, as if it was going to split the sea of clouds in half.
"My current cultivation isn't the real True Martial Realm First Layer," Chen Zong thought to himself.
This was the fifth day after the breakthrough. In these five days, Chen Zong had been adapting to his True Qi and finally had complete control over it.
Today was also the day that Yuan Lingzi and Chen Zong discussed and decided to announce the news that he had stepped into the True Martial Realm.
Half a month!
One could imagine what kind of shock this news would cause when it was announced.
"Chen Zong, come, let's have a chat today," Yuan Lingzi suddenly waved his hand and said, letting Chen Zong sit not far away.
Chen Zong was puzzled, but he still sat close to Yuan Lingzi, not knowing what Yuan Lingzi wanted to talk to him about.
"Chen Zong, do you know anything about the Transcendent Realm?" Yuan Lingzi asked a question that stunned Chen Zong.
"Senior Yuan, I heard my Honored Master say before that the Transcendent Realm will master Transcendent Strength," Chen Zong said.
"You have a Honored Master?" Senior Yuan was stunned.
"I became his disciple in the Cloud Dragon Dynasty." Chen Zong smiled. Yuan Lingzi nodded and didn't pursue this matter. It was normal to have a Honored Master, as long as there was no threat to the Unhindered Sword Sect.
"Transcendent Strength is just a general name for the Transcendent Realm below the Transcendent Realm. It's a name used by those who don't know much about the Transcendent Realm, so it's not comprehensive." Yuan Lingzi smiled, "Today, let's talk about the Transcendent Realm."
Chen Zong was a little dumbfounded. He wanted to know more about the Transcendent Realm before, but he was told that it wouldn't benefit him if he didn't reach the Transcendent Realm. Instead, it would interfere with his cultivation.
Now, why was Senior Yuan telling him about the Transcendent Realm?
Seemingly seeing Chen Zong's doubts, Yuan Lingzi smiled and immediately said something that shocked Chen Zong, "Most cultivators below the Transcendent Realm have little or no understanding of the Transcendent Realm. It's because it's not suitable for them to know, because if they know, it will only cause despair and interfere with their cultivation. But you're different. You've cultivated to the Perfection Stage of the Force Refining Realm, or rather, you've opened the Earth Abyss and the Heaven's Peak. As long as you don't die halfway, you'll definitely become a Transcendent."
"I'll definitely become a Transcendent!" Hearing this, Chen Zong's eyes lit up like thunder. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart. Or bewildered?
Transcendent Realm!
This was the lifelong pursuit of countless warriors, but how many warriors would never enter the Transcendent realm?
Thinking about how his Honoured Master, Marquis Lin Shan, had always pursued the Transcendent Realm but had never been able to find a proper path. The entire Cloud Dragon Dynasty had tens of millions of cultivators, but there were less than ten Transcendent Realm masters. Just how small was this ratio?
Of course, this was also related to the Cloud Dragon Dynasty's Martial Dao level being inferior to the Longtu Dynasty's.
But even within the Longtu Dynasty, there were not many Transcendent Realm masters. For example, the Unhindered Sword Sect, a dignified Low-Rank Sect, had less than ten Transcendent Realm masters.
The Transcendent Realm was still very far away from him. Chen Zong had never thought about it, but it was difficult to understand. Now, Yuan Lingzi was telling him that he would definitely become a Transcendent.
This was a hundred percent certainty. Even he himself was not sure, but Yuan Lingzi dared to say such a thing.
Suddenly, Chen Zong's heart skipped a beat. He thought of the Earth Abyss and the Heaven's Peak that Yuan Lingzi mentioned. Could it be that breaking through to the Transcendent Realm was related to these two?
"Do you know what the Earth Abyss and the Heaven's Peak are called in the Martial Dao?" Yuan Lingzi asked again. Before Chen Zong could answer, he knew that Chen Zong did not understand, "Whether it is the Earth Abyss or the Heaven's Peak, they are both called Aperture Points."
"Aperture Points?" Chen Zong was thoughtful, but he did not understand. This Martial Dao knowledge had exceeded his current realm. If Yuan Lingzi did not believe that he would become a Transcendent in the future, he would not tell him this now.
"For a cultivator, vitality and cultivation are the foundation. It is the accumulation of the body's potential. The True Martial Realm is the extension of the foundation. It is the development of the body's potential. Only through the process of accumulation and development can one truly step into the Martial Dao," Yuan Lingzi said seriously, telling Chen Zong in simple and easy to understand words.
"There are many Aperture Points hidden in the human body, and each Aperture Point contains amazing potential." Yuan Lingzi smiled, "The first element to becoming a Transcendent Realm master is to find an Aperture Point and open it."
Chen Zong nodded, understanding.
Aperture Points, this was a new field for Chen Zong.
"Of course, just opening an Aperture Point is not really stepping into the Transcendent Realm. You still need to master the so-called Transcendent Force, which is the True Meaning."
"True Meaning?" Chen Zong was surprised again. What was this? Although he did not understand, it sounded very profound.
"Between Heaven and Earth, there are countless kinds of forces. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, lightning, light, dark, fast, slow, and so on. When one of them is constantly comprehended to the limit, one will be able to comprehend the so-called True Meaning and sublimate that force." Yuan Lingzi smiled, "It's just that, with my current realm, I can't fully explain the mysteries of True Meaning. I can only give you a general idea. It's good that you know it."
"Finding and opening an Aperture Point and comprehending the True Meaning of that force is the hallmark of reaching the Transcendent Realm."
Chen Zong did not answer. This information did not sound like much. It was just a few short sentences, but it contained infinite mysteries.
The more he thought about it, the more he did not understand. Chen Zong simply stopped thinking about it. There was no need to get into a dead end. Knowing it now was enough. When he was qualified to break through to the Transcendent Realm, it would not be too late to consider it then.
But no matter what, Yuan Lingzi had opened a door for him, allowing him to see a further path.
"Senior Yuan, there should also be levels in the Transcendent Realm, right?" Chen Zong asked.
"Of course there are. In fact, the Transcendent Realm is just a name for cultivators below the Transcendent Realm." Yuan Lingzi laughed, "Transcendent refers to transcending the ordinary and being reborn. It is the sublimation of the True Martial Realm. Generally speaking, if a True Martial Realm cultivator does not fight fiercely, leaving behind hidden injuries, and pays attention to health, it is not impossible for them to live for two hundred years. However, this kind of cultivator is rare, but more than half of the True Martial Realm cultivators can live up to one hundred and fifty years old. "
Ordinary cultivators rarely lived to a hundred years old. When a Qi and Blood Realm cultivator reached a certain age, they would begin to decline. It was inevitable for them to reach the Strength Refining Realm. However, the True Martial Realm was different. They could develop their own potential and increase their lifespan. They would not gradually weaken because of age.
"Do you know how old you can live after entering the Transcendent Realm?" Yuan Lingzi asked.
"Three hundred!" Before Chen Zong could answer, Yuan Lingzi continued.
"Three hundred years old!" Chen Zong was shocked. A person who lived to three hundred years old and experienced three hundred years of spring and autumn would have a lot of accumulation. He was simply an old monster.
Chen Zong had never thought that someone could live for three hundred years.
Seeing the surprise on Chen Zong's face, Yuan Lingzi smiled proudly, as if showing off, "I have lived for more than two hundred years."
Chen Zong was even more surprised. Yuan Lingzi looked like an immortal, but Chen Zong could not imagine that he was already two hundred years old. He thought he was only seventy or eighty years old.
"Senior Yuan, could it be that the higher one's cultivation, the longer one can live, or even …" Chen Zong did not dare to say the last two words.
"I don't know if one can live forever, but the higher one's realm and the higher one's cultivation, the longer one can live. Three hundred years is only the minimum standard for the Transcendent Realm. There are still five hundred years, a thousand years, or even longer." With Yuan Lingzi's words, Chen Zong felt that his worldview had been greatly impacted.
The subversive impact caused an indescribable excitement to emerge from the depths of his heart. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have more pursuits on his path of Martial Dao.
"If I can live longer and enjoy the scenery hundreds or thousands of years later, how would I feel?" Chen Zong could not help but think, yearning in his heart.
"Alright, don't think too much about it. Those are still far from what you are now." Yuan Lingzi's words made Chen Zong sober up, "Now, I will tell you about the division of the so-called Transcendent Realm."
Chen Zong immediately became serious and listened attentively.
"Extreme Human, Earth Spirit, Profound Heaven, these are the so-called Transcendent Realm. They are also three major realms, just like Blood Force, Refining Strength, and True Martial. However, compared to these three realms, it is much more advanced." Yuan Lingzi sighed.
"Extreme Human, Earth Spirit, Profound Heaven …" Chen Zong repeated in a low voice.
"It is said that there are eighty-one Clear Apertures and nine Hidden Apertures in the human body. Every nine Clear Apertures opened is a realm of cultivation. Therefore, there are nine realms in the Extreme Human Realm. It is said that the tenth realm is to find the nine Hidden Apertures and open them one by one." Yuan Lingzi said seriously, "As for the Earth Spirit and Profound Heaven realms, they are even further away. There is no need to know for now."
"May I ask what Senior Yuan's cultivation is?" Chen Zong digested Yuan Lingzi's words and asked boldly.
"I … I am only at the Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm." Yuan Lingzi smiled, "My potential is almost exhausted. Reaching the Fifth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm is my limit."
"Within our Sword Sect, Senior Yuan's cultivation is the highest, right?" Chen Zong asked again. He was really curious.
"I am at the Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. The Sect Leader is at the Third Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. However, his talent and potential are above mine. I estimate that he can reach the Sixth or Seventh Layer of the Extreme Human Realm in his lifetime." Yuan Lingzi said, "As for the four Elders, the Great Elder is also at the Third Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. The other three Elders are at the Second Layer of the Extreme Human Realm."
Chen Zong was even more surprised when he heard this.
The Senior Yuan with the highest cultivation in the entire Unhindered Sword Sect was only at the Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. If that was the case, did the Cloud Dragon Dynasty not even have a Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm?
"Senior Yuan, what is the highest cultivation in the other three Sects?" Chen Zong couldn't help but ask curiously.
Speaking of which, as the Sword Son of the Sect, he was also related to the rise and fall of the Sect. Naturally, he had to be concerned and understand more.
"The Tianshui Sect is the strongest. They have one Fifth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm and one Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. The Zhenyang Sect is second, with two Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm. The Ao Mei Manor is the same as our Unhindered Sword Sect. They both only have one Fourth Layer of the Extreme Human Realm." Yuan Lingzi said with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.
These were the top battle forces of the Sect. The difference was very obvious, causing the entire Sect to be at a disadvantage.
"Senior Yuan, is the level of the Sect related to the strength of the powerhouses within the Sect?" Chen Zong suddenly thought of this.
