“bend your front leg.”
whack!
“more weight on your back leg.”
whack!
“lean forward more.”
whack!
“keep your abdomen tight.”
with each critique, the old man’s staff whacked long chen somewhere, making the latter clench his teeth. the old man was definitely getting his revenge.
“the sixth form is different from the first five forms. before, you only had to rely on your acupuncture points to unleash the power of split the heavens. however, the sixth form uses one’s aura to draw out the energy of heaven and earth. so if you want to use the sixth form, you must have a powerful enough physical body to endure that energy. remember, this movement must be done perfectly, or the energy flowing through your body will become stuck. if that happens, let alone unleashing your attack, you won’t even be able to move,” shouted the old man to the side as he fixed long chen’s posture. “alright, continue according to what i just taught you. slowly circulate your aura. remember, don’t touch the fifty-four acupuncture points in your body.”
long chen complied. this wasn’t difficult for him. the only difficult thing was this strange posture. when he had attacked before, it had always been natural. he had never been forced to follow through with a prescribed form.
space shook as energy began to surge toward long chen. the old man kept his face stern, but he was surprised. long chen really was a monster. his control over his spiritual yuan was perfect.
he sighed inside. this level of skill could only have come from being forced to reach this level. long chen had forced himself to draw out all his potential. no one knew how much he had suffered to reach this level of skill.
originally, the old man had been in the mood to continue beating him; however, with long chen’s current display, he felt too bad to do so.
“not bad. stabilize your aura and don’t touch your spiritual yuan. have your will enter the first acupuncture point and activate it. remember, just activate one,” said the old man.
long chen followed the old man’s instructions. his spiritual yuan was still calm as using one’s will to activate an acupuncture point was very difficult. before this, he would connect all the corresponding acupuncture points at once. and now, not only did he need to do it one by one, but he also had to make sure not to touch his spiritual yuan.
activating split the heavens had almost become a reflex. as soon as he activated the first acupuncture point, his spiritual yuan wanted to rush forward. however, his control was still great enough that he only had to struggle for a moment to suppress that spiritual yuan.
the instant he activated his first acupuncture point, long chen looked into the sky, surprised. there was nothing there, but he felt something there connected to his mind. it was like his senses had extended outside his body.
that shocked the old man. now he really wanted to know how terrifying long chen’s talent was.
“continue to the next acupuncture point,” said the old man.
long chen continued. when he activated the tenth acupuncture point, he paused slightly.
“this acupuncture point relates to the sense of hearing?”
“correct. continue. there’s no need to stop. i want to see how many acupuncture points you can activate at once,” said the old man.
activating the acupuncture points like this would require a great deal of soul energy. once long chen reached his limit, the old man would be forced to help long chen. all of his fifty-four acupuncture points had to be fully activated this time.
by activating them the first time, it would give the user experience and reduce the exhaustion for the next time. then they would be able to unleash the sixth form.
the eighteenth acupuncture point... the twenty-seventh acupuncture point... the thirty-sixth acupuncture point... long chen activated them all without finding it taxing at all.
he found that the first nine acupuncture points corresponded to sight, while the next nine corresponded to hearing. then the next nine corresponded to smell. in that instant, he had felt an absolute clarity toward his surroundings.
when he activated the thirty-sixth acupuncture point and a wave of scents assaulted him, his throat became itchy. he had an urge to puke. it was like he was tasting the air, the soil, the grass, and even the insects in the grass.
the old man was once more shocked. he hadn’t expected long chen’s spiritual strength to be so powerful.
long chen continued. on the forty-fifth acupuncture point, he found that it corresponded to the sense of touch. he felt all his pores opening. it was like everything around him was touching him. the breathing of the fresh grass, the swirl of the wind, and even the movements of the insects in the soil were sensed.
“good. before training in the sixth form, one must first cultivate six kinds of senses. the first five senses are sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. as long as these five senses are awakened, then any illusion art will be useless against you. try to see if you can open the final sense. don’t hesitate. i’m here if you need me,” said the old man.
seeing long chen’s unnatural expression after activating all these senses, the old man thought that long chen had almost reached his limit. he didn’t know this was from being disgusted.
however, after reaching the fifth sense, long chen didn’t taste as much of what he didn’t want to, and he continued.
his spiritual strength was practically limitless, and he activated fifty-four acupuncture points in one go. the instant he activated the fifty-fourth acupuncture point, the space around him shook. long chen felt like he had become the ruler of this space. within this domain, everything was within his control.
just as he was delighted, the old man whacked his staff at long chen’s waist. it was quick, sudden, and at such close range. there was simply no time to dodge.
however, just as it was about to touch his waist, a hand moved as quick as lightning, catching it.
