The wind howled, and endless rays of light surged from all directions. This was the first time Wang Chong had ever come into contact with such a profound realm. He could see countless lights of different colors filling every corner of the void.
"Is this the energy of the world?"
Wang Chong muttered to himself as he looked around.
"Correct!"
A familiar voice came from the air. It was the voice of his master, the Evil Emperor.
"There are thousands of different kinds of energy in the world. The 'Stellar Energy' that we cultivate is only one of them, or perhaps just a few of them. Different techniques have different kinds of energy, so their properties are naturally different. We absorb the energy of the world into our bodies and use it for ourselves. This is the process of cultivating the martial path. "
"Many thanks for Master's guidance. Your disciple understands!"
Wang Chong nodded in realization.
With a soul that had lived two lives, Wang Chong understood these principles even more than the Evil Emperor. The Evil Emperor only needed to give him a few pointers, but he already understood everything.
"Haha, Chong-er, you truly have an extremely high comprehension ability. Back then, your master and the Village Chief needed a very long time to understand this principle. We originally believed that you would need a very long time to understand, but you immediately understood. "
The Evil Emperor had a gratified look on his face. The student had surpassed the master. To the Demonic Emperor Old Man, there was nothing to regret about taking in a disciple who was even more outstanding and promising than himself.
"Chong-er, carefully sense it. Do you feel it? Different colors represent different properties. Even if they are the same color, there are different levels of energy. Some are like a trickle, and some are like a mighty river. What we martial artists need to do is to absorb those surging rivers of energy, and constantly strengthen ourselves. "
"Thus, if you can do this, even if your cultivation level hasn't risen, your strength will undergo a qualitative transformation, allowing you to display a fighting strength far above your current level. At this level, even if you haven't reached the Great General level, does it matter? "
Buzz!
The moment the Evil Emperor spoke, the world before Wang Chong once more changed. The entire world suddenly became richer and richer, and the colors became brighter and brighter. The entire space was filled with all kinds of energy. In Wang Chong's perception, the entire world suddenly became much clearer, as if he was looking at it with a magnifying glass.
Wang Chong understood. He knew that his master was using his powerful cultivation base and realm to directly display the world in his eyes to him. Their spiritual powers were now connected. Naturally, Wang Chong could see the 'world' that the Evil Emperor saw.
Wang Chong had experienced this before, so he cherished this opportunity even more. He suddenly opened his mind, and his whole body entered this world of energy.
In the world of consciousness and energy, there was no body, and there were no living things.
As Wang Chong spread out his mental power, Wang Chong comprehended more and more. These energy balls were densely packed and covered the entire world. If one carefully sensed them, they would realize that some of these brightly colored energy balls were as fierce as flames, some were as warm as water, some were as cold as ice, and some were as warm as the sun …
One, two, three, four … As Wang Chong explored, he sensed more and more different types of energy. One hundred, one thousand, ten thousand. The more he tried, the more he realized that the energy of this world was not as simple as Origin Energy or Stellar Energy. This was just a general term. The energy that a martial artist cultivated was far more complicated than this.
When Wang Chong saw a red energy ball, he suddenly had an irrepressible thought. A moment later, Wang Chong sent a wisp of his mind into the ball. Bzzz! It was like he had stepped from one world into another.
A moment later, Wang Chong saw a completely different scene. Within this red ball of light were countless tiny particles of energy, densely packed together and filling every corner.
"Chong-er, you can see it now. This is the secret of energy. The old Village Chief and I call those tiny particles before you are mustard seeds. All energy is made up of thousands of these even smaller mustard seeds. This is the secret of this world. "
The Evil Emperor said. His mind was connected to Wang Chong's, so he knew every move Wang Chong made.
In this world, there were some people with extremely high comprehension abilities, able to draw inferences about other things from one instance and comprehend by analogy. One didn't need to explain too much about the most profound principles. One only needed to describe them a little for them to completely understand. There was no doubt that Wang Chong was this sort of martial arts genius.
What a pity. If only I had met this child earlier!
The Evil Emperor couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Given the comprehension ability that Wang Chong had displayed, if he had met him earlier and carefully taught him, his accomplishments might have far surpassed his own. He might even have stepped into the Subtle realm.
At this moment, Wang Chong was completely unaware of his master's thoughts.
Hearing the Evil Emperor's words, Wang Chong's heart was in turmoil. The reason why Wang Chong knew all this was because he had come from an even earlier modern world. Thus, he knew everything that the Evil Emperor had said like the back of his hand. But the fact that his master, The Evil Emperor, was able to use his martial arts to touch upon the essence of this world was truly astonishing.
All was quiet. Wang Chong was like a thirsty sponge, constantly exploring this unknown world. Although Wang Chong had long understood the principles of "energy" and "mustard seed" that the Evil Emperor had mentioned, knowing was one thing. Actually seeing, feeling, and touching them was another. Wang Chong had never imagined that all these things would be presented to him in such a direct manner. This was of great help to Wang Chong.
With every passing moment, every second, Wang Chong's understanding of the essence of martial arts continued to increase. Although this understanding and understanding could not increase Wang Chong's realm, it was just as the Evil Emperor had said. Once he understood the essence of Qi, Wang Chong could still comb through his life's knowledge and obtain greater combat power. He didn't even need to reach that realm to unleash a higher level of combat power.
As Wang Chong's understanding of the essence of Qi continued to grow, time slowly passed. Suddenly, Wang Chong heard the voice of his master, The Evil Emperor.
"Chong-er, you truly did not disappoint your master. You were able to comprehend these principles so quickly. Your master will now teach you the final and most important thing: the Subtle!"
"Buzz!"
Wang Chong's heart trembled at these words, and he immediately focused his mind. He knew that every word his master was about to say would be extremely important.
The Subtle realm!
Even though Wang Chong had reached the War Saint level, he had not been able to touch upon the Subtle realm. The entire world, including Wang Chong, only knew that the peak of the Saint Martial realm was the Great General realm, and above the Great General realm was the Divine Martial realm. As for how to reach the Divine Martial realm, Wang Chong had no idea, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not find the door.
There were many people in the world like Wang Chong who had been stuck at the Great General realm, unable to advance even an inch. Gao Xianzhi, Duwusili, An Sishun, Geshu Han … there was still a long list to go. In all of history, the only person who had truly touched upon the Divine Martial realm and almost succeeded was the Holy Emperor, who had been hailed as the greatest emperor of all time.
Wang Chong had always believed that this was due to talent. In order to reach higher realms, one needed to possess the dazzling and peerless talent of the Holy Emperor, but it now appeared that this was far from the case. Even though the Divine Martial Realm was like the sun and moon hanging high in the sky, unreachable and unattainable, there was still a flight of stairs that led there, and the "Intricate Realm" was undoubtedly the first step that led to the final shore.
At this thought, Wang Chong couldn't help but feel a little excited and expectant. Wang Chong had originally believed that the Evil Emperor would speak some extremely profound principles, but reality was much simpler than Wang Chong had imagined.
"Chong-er, raise your head and look up."
The Evil Emperor's voice came from his side. Wang Chong subconsciously raised his head, and a moment later, Wang Chong's entire body trembled. The moment he raised his head, he saw a sight that he would never be able to forget for the rest of his life.
Through the layers of energy, at the very top of the dimension, Wang Chong saw balls of golden energy that were like blazing suns. Compared to other types of energy, these balls of energy were far more powerful. Wang Chong could sense that these balls of light were brimming with a vast, blazing, and berserk energy, just like the lava of a volcano.
This energy was so dense that when Wang Chong raised his head, he couldn't help but feel like he was being burned by a blazing sun. All the energy in this dimension, in front of these golden, scarlet-gold, and violet-gold balls of energy, was like fireflies before the bright moon, insignificant.
"This is …"
Wang Chong's heart trembled, thousands of thoughts flitting through his mind. He seemed to understand something, but he couldn't quite grasp it.
"Do you see? Behind those balls of energy is the world of the Subtle. In truth, there are countless dimensions in this world, but because we martial artists are too weak, our senses too weak, our minds too weak, we are unable to sense them. Right now, we martial artists, even Great Generals, can only absorb the most ordinary energy, but once we reach the Subtle realm, everything will be completely different. We can absorb even higher levels of energy from the depths of space, which is what you see now. "
