Human Clan Defender-Chapter 650 - s 29-30: Overview of Martial Arts, Division of Realms (2 in 1, asking for monthly tickets)_4

A thousand years!

To say it has been a sea change is no exaggeration at all. How many martial artists have ultimately halted their journey within a century? There has not been a single martial artist who lived to two hundred, let alone a thousand years. Even Yi Ning was greatly shocked. However, he understood even more clearly the immeasurable impact the content of this lecture would have once it spread.

Firstly, his approach was akin to overturning the entire ancient heritage. While the realms from Body Tempering to Grandmaster were retained, from the Grandmaster Peak onwards, it was as if everything had been swept clean. Great Grandmaster! Extreme Realm! Heaven Being! Immortal Golden Body! These realms would undoubtedly become the system recognized by all martial artists in the future. The reason was simple: Shen Changqing was now considered the foremost martial artist of his era. With this status, his words would naturally not cause any dissent. On the contrary, they would have a huge influence.

Afterwards, Shen Changqing began explaining his understanding of each realm, starting from the Self-Forging Body Realm, to Pulse Condensation, and then to the successive realms of Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, and so on. While explaining, he was also implicitly organizing the martial knowledge he had acquired. Ordinary speech, when woven together, inspired an unusual enlightenment in the hearts of the others present.

Among those present, the least skilled, Gongye Yue, was at the Innate Realm. Body Tempering! Pulse Condensation! They had long experienced these two realms. However, when listening to Shen Changqing explain these two realms, these people suddenly realized they did not truly understand them after all. There was much they did not know. Now, having heard his explanations, it was as if they had an epiphany. The circulation of their True Qi suddenly became much easier.

As time passed, Shen Changqing spoke at a measured pace, bit by bit sharing all his knowledge of the Martial Dao from the Body Tempering Realm to the Grandmaster Realm. When he moved on to Great Grandmaster, the Extreme Realm, and so on, there was no pause in his discourse.

However, upon reaching the Grandmaster Realm, some were enlightened, while others were utterly perplexed. Those who were enlightened were mostly martial artists in the latter stages of the Grandmaster Realm. As for those who were confused, most were either new to the Grandmaster Realm or lacked the foundation and had not yet reached that stage. When he spoke of the Extreme Realm, it became abstruse and incomprehensible to most of those present. The only one who listened with keen interest was Yi Ning. He was a former powerhouse at the Grandmaster Ultimate Summit, now equivalent to the Extreme Realm with the new classifications. At this level, Yi Ning already had some insights of his own. Listening to Shen Changqing's explanations now and comparing them with his own understanding, he immediately gained much. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

After an unknown amount of time, the explanation of the Extreme Realm concluded, and the lecture moved into the Heaven Being Realm. At this point, Yi Ning also began to furrow his brow. Regarding the Heaven Being Realm, although he had acquired some information from the Ancient Ruins, he had not personally reached that realm, so much of it remained incomprehensible to him. Now, Shen Changqing's profound explanations seemed even more esoteric. Initially, Yi Ning could grasp some aspects thanks to his profound foundation, but as Shen Changqing continued, he became completely lost.

Shen Changqing paid this no mind and continued sharing his insights into the Heaven Being Realm. At this point, it was less about lecturing others and more about clarifying things for himself. After Heaven Being came the explanation of the Immortal Golden Body Realm. Currently, he was only in the mid-stage of the Immortal Golden Body Realm, so his understanding was not yet completely thorough. He only explained half of it before stopping.

When he finished speaking, Shen Changqing felt invigorated, as if a burden had been lifted, and his previously stagnant cultivation realm seemed to have loosened slightly. Although this slight easing was nothing compared to an actual breakthrough, it was still growth, nonetheless.

Then, he looked at the others present and smiled faintly. "I have now explained the entirety of the Martial Dao, from the Body Tempering Realm to the Immortal Golden Body Realm. If any of you have questions in your hearts, you may voice them now, and I will answer them one by one for you all."
