Entry: I Secretly Cultivate Immortality in the Martial Arts World

9: Chapter 9 In an instant, he reached the late stage of the second level of martial arts!After reading The Second Transformation Chapter of the Grand Unity of Morality Sutra, Gu Yan could not help but feel a little disappointed.

According to this scripture, the Second Transformation of Martial Dao is divided into four barriers.

The Early Stage of the Second Transformation requires condensing a Qi vortex within the nine original Acupoints in the body; once the vortex stabilizes, Internal Energy can be released through the body to injure others from a distance.

The Middle Stage requires opening nine brand-new Acupoints, which is called Adding Fuel.

The Late Stage requires opening another nine Acupoints, known as Accumulating Firewood.

As for the Peak Perfection of the Second Transformation, one must connect the nine basic Acupoints of the First Transformation of Martial Dao with the eighteen newly opened Acupoints of the Second Transformation one by one, causing the Internal Energy to flow like a river, cycling without end.

The first group of nine newly opened Acupoints are Baihui, Fengchi, Jianjing, Quchi, Hegu, Huantiao, Yanglingquan, Sanyinjiao, and Taichong.

They are mainly distributed along the vital points of the limbs and torso, and after successful opening, the circulation speed of Internal Energy can increase by more than thirty percent.

The second group of nine Acupoints are Yintang, Tiantu, Xuanji, Huagai, Zigong, Yutang, Zhongting, Jiuwei, and Juque.

Located along the Ren Meridian of the chest and abdomen, opening them can double the storage capacity of Internal Energy.

Overall, the Second Transformation of Martial Dao pursues quantitative change rather than qualitative change.

”Forget it. If I really try to create a Cultivation Technique out of thin air, Qi Deviation will likely happen sooner or later,” Gu Yan said with a self-deprecating smile.

With his current knowledge, trying to create a Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Being able to reach the Ninth Level of Qi Refining by relying on the First Transformation of Martial Dao Cultivation Technique was already a stroke of immense luck.

The current plan is to first follow the Martial Dao system of this world.

Later, when he obtains a more profound Cultivation Technique, he can then plan to innovate and create a path that truly suits himself.

Gu Yan closed his eyes and sank his mind into his Dantian.

The Spiritual Qi of the Ninth Level of Qi Refining flowed slowly through his Meridians, clear as a spring and light as the wind.

This is fundamentally different from a Martial Artist’s Internal Energy, and Gu Yan knew this better than anyone.

Internal Energy originates from Qi and blood, rooted in the Physical Body.

Spiritual Power, however, is refined by gathering the essence of heaven and earth.

Although both can drive techniques and unleash might, their sources are different, and their upper limits are worlds apart.

He is using Spiritual Power to practice Martial Dao.

With his mind made up, he began to circulate the method from The Second Transformation Chapter of the Grand Unity of Morality Sutra.

He simply replaced all the so-called Internal Energy within it with his own, more refined Spiritual Power.

In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Spiritual Qi in his original nine Acupoints transformed into a vortex.

Subsequently, the Spiritual Power within his body continued to flow along the Meridians, surging toward the new Acupoints described in the Second Transformation Chapter.

The entire process was so smooth it felt almost natural.

Those barriers that would require time, effort, and repeated impact for a Martial Artist opened quietly under the trickle of Spiritual Power.

Regarding this, Gu Yan felt not a hint of surprise.

As early as when he was Cultivating the First Transformation of Martial Dao and impacting the initial nine Acupoints, he had already understood.

Using Spiritual Power to operate the Martial Dao Acupoint-opening method had an efficiency far exceeding the Internal Energy used by the Martial Artists of this world.

At this moment, the Second Transformation Cultivation was merely verifying this experience once again.

Fengchi, Jianjing, Quchi...

One Acupoint after another was easily opened, Spiritual Power was injected, and Internal Energy was generated spontaneously.

In less than an hour, the first group of nine Acupoints had all been completely opened.

Gu Yan adjusted his breathing slightly, sensing the nine newly added Acupoints within his body forming their own cycle.

If a Martial Dao expert were here, they would likely be too shocked to speak.

For ordinary Martial Artists to achieve a Breakthrough in the Second Transformation and open new Acupoints, which one of them doesn’t seclude themselves for years, supplement with Medicinal Pills, and act with extreme caution, as if walking on thin ice?

How could it be so understated and natural?

Those who Cultivate immortality are truly unreasonable.

This thought flashed through Gu Yan’s mind, his lips curled slightly, but his hands did not pause.

With a turn of Spiritual Power, he had already begun to impact the second group of nine Acupoints.

The Yintang Acupoint opened, a flash of spiritual light appeared between his eyebrows, and his Divine Sense became slightly clearer.

Tiantu, Xuanji, Huagai...

The Acupoints along the chest and abdomen opened one after another, and as the Spiritual Power flowed through them, it faintly emitted the sound of a gurgling stream.

Gu Yan looked within himself and saw the eighteen newly opened Acupoints lit up like stars, shining in harmony with the original nine vital Acupoints.

Spiritual Power flowed back and forth between them, and the speed of the cycle was more than twice as fast as before.

Another half an hour passed.

Gu Yan opened his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed in his pupils, which then subsided to normal.

The Late Stage of the Second Transformation of Martial Dao was achieved.

From the start of the Cultivation until now, less than two hours had passed.

This speed was simply like driving a fully automatic harvester to harvest the leeks in his own backyard.

He hadn’t even warmed up, and the job was already done.

But Gu Yan was not overly joyful; on the contrary, he became even more clear-headed.

He understood that he was merely forcing open the door of Martial Dao with a higher level of power.

The real difficulty lay in how to extract the essence of this system and integrate it into his own path of cultivating immortality.
