Chapter 229: Chapter 90: Divine Abnormality Grasping Heavenly Moment (6/3)An Jing was completely unaware of all the outside world’s discussions. His soul and spirit had entered an extremely mysterious state. In An Jing’s perception, the entire world seemed to turn into a kind of illusory blurriness. Everything was constantly distorting and fading into paleness and nothingness, engendering countless phantasms and bizarre thoughts. Even flashes of Heavenly Demon’s demonic thoughts appeared, seemingly attempting to lure him. But An Jing stood firm in his mind, letting the chaotic world turn upside down and tempt him without being moved in the slightest. In a blurred and twisted heaven and earth, only the figure of An Jing stood immovable, like a towering and eternal mountain peak. Maintaining this tranquil and resolute state, An Jing gradually felt an extremely clear Mysterious True Thought emerging from an inexplicable height, resonating with his Divine Sea in the Purple Mansion, manifesting in his heart like a rootless spring. This Mysterious True Thought washed away all distractions and delusions, causing An Jing’s mind to instantly flash through dozens upon hundreds of different cultivation insights, his thinking sharp and vibrant! Suddenly the verses of instruction and the pictorial indications of both the Imperial Heaven Qi Nurturing Method and the Houtu Body Cultivation Method became crystal clear in An Jing’s mind. — Heaven without Self, Fearless Abyssal, Unquestioning Spirit Penetration, Mysterious Step without Confusion. — Houtu Without Desire, Reincarnation Without Attachment, Break Evil without Anger, Kill Without Hatred. Eight fundamental principles manifested in An Jing’s mind, and then continuously split and dissolved, turning into even clearer secrets hidden within profound meanings. "So that’s how it is; the problem lies with the Son of Heaven Method. My understanding isn’t wrong, but I haven’t grasped it deeply enough." At this moment, An Jing discovered that the Son of Heaven Method, which he thought he had completely understood and even mastered, actually contained far more subtleties to be experienced. As the foundational cultivation method of Heaven’s Will Cult, it seemed that every Martial Artist within the cult knew the Son of Heaven Method. But, just as the same scriptures and words, the same disciplines and exams, some could only repeat and fail, while others could understand some Divine Skills and secret techniques from them, and even directly perceive certain principles and theorems. The Son of Heaven Method indeed contained too many secrets, revealing different mysteries to different people. "Heaven without Self doesn’t actually mean the absence of self. It means to adopt a higher perspective, to rid oneself of subjective relationships, to discard all forms of bias and discrimination, and all acquired notions, looking at oneself from a higher and purer standpoint!" "The ’heartless and indifferent’ aspect that comes with practicing the Son of Heaven Method is indeed a characteristic of its expression. Most people, including myself, believed it to be a mindset of ’Heaven and Earth are heartless, treating all beings as straw dogs’—something the Demon Sect would train its assassins to adopt. But that’s not the case!" Heaven without compassion, everything as one. To love like Heaven is akin but essentially different from indifference. And just as the Son of Heaven Method could lead one to become ’heartless’, the Houtu Skills could also make one ’desireless’. The more one practiced, the less one was interested in delicacies or beauties, untouched by the pleasures of sounds, flavors, or colors... But the same is true! Houtu Without Desire bears all things. It discards all physical perceptions, removing the colors and preferences that taint the mind over time, experiencing the purest essence of one’s soul, revealing one’s entire self to oneself! In the state of Enlightenment, An Jing completely understood the fundamental principles of the Imperial Heaven and Houtu Method. All the answers lay within the names, which he had known all along but had never noticed before. At this moment, within An Jing’s body, the essence Qi that had been flowing continuously like a tide, began to swiftly and naturally adjust its angle and direction of flow. As if the Great River was changing its course, moving away from the shallow and silt-laden riverbed to another deeper and more robust one, heading straight to the sea. The previously sluggish flow of essence Qi became rapid and forceful. Streams of extremely pure essence Qi started circulating in a new and more natural, more perfect manner! In an instant, An Jing’s body, which had not fully digested the Xuanyuan Pure Light, was refined in the blink of an eye, boosting his essence Qi once again to the verge of its peak, like a rising tide! But this time, the increase in essence Qi came without suddenness, everything occurring naturally, everything falling into place effortlessly! And as his essence qi broke through, accompanied by a moment of mental clarity, An Jing also realized how to begin the "Son of Heaven Method" and the essence of that special "Divine Abnormality." "Heaven without Self, Houtu Without Desire... As long as I grasp the fundamental true intent of these two cultivation methods and then visualize Heaven and Houtu with this true intent, I can observe my true self from a purely objective perspective." "In this state, I can perfectly control any of my movements, control all the internals and muscles of my body, even the flow of my blood and the circulation of my essence qi..." "This is the Son of Heaven Method!" At that moment, An Jing realized, "No wonder Heaven’s Will Cult spreads the Imperial Heaven and Houtu methods widely. What they want are geniuses like me, who can spontaneously comprehend and even achieve enlightenment, knowing the essence of the Son of Heaven Method by themselves!" "The Son of Heaven Method is the most perfect introspection method! It allows one to clearly see all the dark wounds and weaknesses and then to repair them bit by bit, making the body approach perfection, akin to a ’child of heaven and earth as created by nature’!" "This is the fundamental meaning and basis of the Son of Heaven Method. The Son of Heaven Method is not a fixed cultivation method, but a ’state’ that can enhance one’s life cultivation with the highest efficiency!" "At the same time, when I practice other methods and am condensing Divine Abnormality, it’s very unlikely that I’ll make any mistakes, and the success rate greatly increases!" Even just this effect alone, the integration of the Imperial Heaven and Houtu method with the Son of Heaven Method, can be called a ’divine achievement,’ enough to compare with the same level Taibai Luminous Godly Ban! But, understanding this layer is extremely difficult. It requires an extremely thorough understanding of oneself and a mental state that can observe anyone without prejudice. Even if An Jing directly told others the trick, they simply wouldn’t understand. It’s like a complex problem; many people can’t even understand the question. Even if An Jing tells them the answer, they can’t apply this knowledge even if they copy it directly. Cultivation is not an exam; knowing the answer is not enough. You must have a complete line of reasoning and method of operation to stimulate it. And that’s not all. An Jing found that this Desireless and Egoless state is precisely the state required for condensing the special Divine Abnormality necessary for the Son of Heaven Method through the Imperial Heaven and Houtu method. "As long as I enter the Desireless and Egoless state, my thoughts will speed up." "To me, time will seem to slow down!" At this moment, An Jing’s mind was like a Bright Mirror; he had completely understood the other significances of the Imperial Heaven and Houtu cultivation methods: "But subjectively slowing down time is meaningless, because my movements are still slow. Aside from being able to strike more accurately and with more stable techniques without mistakes, it doesn’t have much importance." "Even, due to the imbalance between mind and body, my techniques might have errors and become weaker, less coherent." "However, the other cultivation methods within the Imperial Heaven and Houtu methods are to compensate for these issues!" Fearless Abyssal allows one to maintain absolute calmness in the Desireless and Egoless state. Unquestioning Spirit Penetration can make the body erupt with a speed that can keep up with the accelerated thinking for a short time. Mysterious Step without Confusion is a stepping method specifically designed for accelerated thinking, allowing one to walk quickly and quietly, or to suddenly burst forth at several times the speed for a swift assault! Reincarnation Without Attachment is an even more secret technique that tempers the meridians, so they can withstand the accelerated flow of essence qi in the Desireless and Egoless state. As for Break Evil without Anger and Kill Without Hatred, they are even simpler; they enable cultivators to adapt to the ultra-fast thinking in the Desireless and Egoless state, corresponding to the needs of combat! All of this, the two sets of Imperial Heaven and Houtu cultivation, the eight grand secret techniques, all are for condensing that one special Divine Abnormality, which allows one to touch upon the realm of Soul and Spirit as soon as they reach the initial Inner Strength stage, aiding cultivation and enabling one to think and fight at several times the normal speed, the most obscure and mystical ’Divine Abnormality’! Opening his eyes, An Jing’s pupils swirled with pure Spiritual Light, his thorough enlightenment made him aware of everything. "Divine Abnormality..." The youth murmured to himself, saying the name revealed to him by heaven and earth. "Grasping Heavenly Moment!"
