Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 404 - 36: Divine Guarding Five Qi, Ascending the Immortal Ladder

Chapter 404: Chapter 36: Divine Guarding Five Qi, Ascending the Immortal Ladder

The Five Internal Gods, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth corresponded to Hao Hua, Dragon Smoke, Xuan Ming, Danyuan, and Chang Zai respectively.

The Five Elements in the Spirit World had achieved balance, meaning even casual use of power wouldn’t pose any problems, although this was hardly noteworthy.

The power of the Five Internal Gods had always been divided between spirit and reality.

“In the Spirit World, achieving this balance is merely a simulation for me!”

Within his own Spirit World, Wang Sheng faced no restrictions when using the power of the Five Internal Gods, otherwise, it would not have been possible to use them to suppress the Spirit World itself.

Since the Spirit World was part of his abilities, using suppression within it was strictly speaking merely a projection of power.

The true origin of the Five Internal Gods still lay dormant within his five internal organs.

Only when externally utilized, or used in the Spirit World where the Heavenly Father resided, would there be some limitations.

What Wang Sheng had to do was to make these limitations disappear.

“Although the Spirit World can’t fully simulate my power, it’s still a useful reference.”

What he needed to do was to harmonize the Five Elements in the Spirit World according to the rules of mutual generation and overcoming. Once successful, he could then use the power of the Five Internal Gods freely until his energy was depleted.

With the experience from the Spirit World, he didn’t need to endure time and could take the initiative himself.

“However, this will consume quite a bit of spiritual power. I can wait a while to gather pure spiritual power, then start accumulating some elixirs.”

Pure spiritual power was similar to elixirs.

But in fact, pure spiritual power was much higher in its hierarchy than elixirs.

Pure spiritual power could directly enhance the upper limit of Wang Sheng’s Divine Thought, whereas elixirs required conversion through a Cultivation Method. Otherwise, they could only replenish consumed spiritual energy and not increase limits.

Balancing the Five Internal Gods in the body required the full operation of the Five Internal Gods’ power, and the consumption would certainly not be small.

“In addition to supplements for Divine Thought, prepare some for Qi-Blood as well.”

When it comes to cultivation, being overly cautious is never too much.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Because Wang Sheng had embedded a Cultivation Method in the Spirit World and delivered cultivation elixirs through spatial means, the Spirit World saw a massive influx of visitors during this period, accumulating a lot of pure spiritual energy; plenty of both types of elixirs were produced.

“I can begin now!”

Wang Sheng didn’t hesitate and immediately entered a state of introspection.

His gaze of Divine Thought directly observed the positions of his internal organs.

Under this gaze similar to Divine Thought, the Five Internal Gods revealed themselves.

They had no will, all were extensions of Wang Sheng’s will, and without his mobilization, the Five Internal Gods were more like objects.

Both Chang Zai and Dragon Smoke were holding a sword.

These were their nurtured flying swords!

As his gaze fell, so did his will into the interior of his internal organs.

The power of the Five Internal Gods was thus activated.

Upon activation, a golden glow emerged around his body.

The Five Internal Organs Containing God derived God—Golden Light.

Theoretically, with great success in golden light, one could achieve immunity from all techniques, but reaching true immunity from all techniques would likely take several advancements.

Of course, after the awakening of the Five Internal Gods, the golden light also possessed powerful strength to withstand many attacks, but currently, there were no opponents worth activating it for.

With all Five Internal Gods activated, golden light automatically appeared; this was actually a display of the collective power of the Five Internal Gods.

Wang Sheng was not much focused on managing things now.

Because the ultimate balance of the Five Elements had begun.

Different from inside the Spirit World, where Wang Sheng used the most stable central earth as the start of balance,

In the real world, he started with the Water Element God “Xuan Ming.”

Xuan Ming was the last to awaken among the Five Internal Gods but was the source of all powers “kidneys” that nurtured the Five Internal Gods.

Qi Blood Power was born in the kidneys, then gathered in the Dantian, and as cultivation deepened, Qi Blood Power merged with spiritual power, giving rise to the power of Divine Thought.

Theoretically, the birth of the Five Internal Gods also could not be separated from the power’s original source, the kidneys.

Therefore, the balance of the Five Elements had to start from here.

“Water generates wood…”

Having performed a simulation in the Spirit World previously, Wang Sheng was not completely familiar, but still possessed some experience.

“As expected, setting aside some Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills was the right decision; the power of the Five Internal Gods is no longer merely a derivative of spirit, something I should have realized earlier.”

Long ago, Wang Sheng knew that all his powers influenced each other.

He had thought although the Five Internal Gods could directly exert significant influence in the current world, they were essentially still a type of spiritual power, Divine Skills linked to Divine Thought.

Reality and spirit both described places where power could be displayed.

Yet, while balancing the Five Elements, he realized that the Five Internal Gods were born and nurtured within the internal organs, and the internal organs also served as storage areas for his Qi Blood Power.

Over time, Qi Blood Power had long influenced the Five Internal Gods.

The Five Internal Organs Containing God actually also contained the power of Qi-Blood, and as they began to reach equilibrium, this characteristic was exhibited.

“The Five Internal Organs Containing God and Qi-Blood Power are harmoniously intertwined, now the Five Internal Organs Containing God can even utilize Qi-Blood Power, becoming even stronger!”

If given a long spear, the Child transformed by Dragon Smoke could even wield the “Shocking World Dragon Spear,” and its power would not be much weaker. A Divine Skill wielded with a power considerably weaker than his own would not be of much use.

“The Five Internal Organs Containing God are linked with Qi-Blood Power, so can this power be used in the Spirit World?”

Wang Sheng’s mind raced with possibilities. If he could achieve this, he could demonstrate his full combat power even in the Spirit World.

Crushing the Heavenly Father or the Black Fog Giant Snake would be even less of a pressure.

“It’s a pity that now is not the time to try this…”

The Five Elements Balance was not yet complete.

The generating cycle was quickly accomplished, followed by the controlling cycle.

Eventually, under Wang Sheng’s careful handling, this step was passed without any dangers.

“The Five Elements are completely balanced!”

At the moment of the Five Elements Balance, Wang Sheng felt as if his powers had been entirely sorted through.

“The body seems to have evolved due to the Five Elements Balance, though not as significantly as breaking through a major realm, it could even be considered minor, but this evolution seems to be long-term.”

After the balance of the Five Elements, it constantly enhanced Wang Sheng’s physique.

“And this power is also affecting the seeds derived from Ba Duan Jin!”

For a long time, his power had been integrating; each improvement influenced the others.

“Five Elements Balance, I can finally freely utilize the power of my Five Internal Organs Containing God!”

Previously, suppressing Heavenly Father was always cautious, had he been able to use the full power of the Five Internal Organs Containing God back then, he wouldn’t have just one suppressed Heavenly Father in his hands!

Of course, Wang Sheng did not wish to dwell on past matters.

After the balance of the Five Elements, it also symbolized that the “Awakening of the Five Internal Organs Containing God” had reached its end, and what followed would be a completely new realm.

“Divine Guarding Five Qi: 1%”

A new entry appeared, but Wang Sheng, who had not yet Cultivated it, did not fully understand its meaning.

Therefore, Wang Sheng directly started cultivation.

“Divine Guarding Five Qi, so that’s what it is…”

The existence of the Five Internal Organs Containing God is essentially to protect the human body; if a person lives, the Five Internal Organs Containing God exist, if a person dies, they perish.

Although called ‘God,’ they are the gods of the human body.

After the complete awakening of the Five Internal Organs Containing God, they truly possessed the ability to guard the Five Elements Qi of the body, and also protect the body’s Essence Qi, Spirit, and Qi-Blood, safeguarding the body.

Once injured, utilizing the power of the Five Internal Organs Containing God could allow for rapid recovery.

Also, with the Five Internal Organs Containing God fully awakened, this was of great aid to longevity, locking in a person’s Life Essence Qi, delaying aging.

Having reached this stage, Wang Sheng found that the passage of his lifespan slowed down; in some sense, his lifespan had increased by two hundred years.

Even these aspects are minute details; guarding the Five Qi is actually in preparation for a much later stage.

Guarding the body’s Five Qi is an important step in ascending the ladder to Immortality.

“I never expected such effects from a breakthrough; the power of the Five Internal Organs Containing God, or say the Five Qi, is much more significant than I imagined.”

After reaching this stage, the Five Internal Organs Containing God became even stronger, allowing Wang Sheng to wield even greater power.

However, these powers were not as important as the current “primary” work of the Five Internal Organs Containing God.

“The ladder to Immortality, I had already unknowingly stepped onto it?”

He had been continuously progressing, proceeding in an orderly fashion, and after completing these stages, perhaps he could naturally ascend to Immortality.

In reality, the ladder to Immortality had long been laid out; realms were just part of it.

This “Divine Guarding Five Qi” had indeed served as a wake-up call for him.

“Some things, although seemingly insignificant, are actually very important.”

Initially, Wang Sheng did not expect the Five Internal Organs Containing God to reach this extent.

“Fortunately, I always place great importance on Cultivation Techniques, despite some biases, I have not neglected them.”

After understanding the function of “Divine Guarding Five Qi,” he rehearsed Five Elements Fist several more times before ending his seclusion.

“I wonder if the breakthrough of the Five Internal Organs Containing God has impacted the Spirit World, the Spirit World is also due for a breakthrough; I hope this breakthrough can provide a solution.”

Wang Sheng initially wanted a breakthrough for the Five Internal Organs Containing God and Spirit World for an important reason.

That is the core of the Spirit World is him, and as long as he leaves this area, the Spirit World will also depart.

This situation could actually affect attracting fixed individuals.

Dispersing spiritual power does not mean that each person could only provide a fixed amount, but rather that each use of spiritual power entails some dispersion, so fixing the Spirit World in one place and attracting regular inhabitants is the best choice.

Unless Wang Sheng plans to stay in one location forever, the ability of the Spirit World to move with him is a flaw.

“Previously this model actually had its benefits, I could use my Spirit World anytime, any place, now it has become a hindrance; but staying in one place would mean weakening myself…”

Wang Sheng was rather troubled.

“I hope after the breakthrough, there will be a perfect solution… it’s almost time!”
