Two Realms: From Glass Beads to Divine Skills, Invincible

Chapter 62: Diving into the Deep Pool to Practice Stillness Stance.

It should be?

Xuanming Daoist looked puzzled. "If it is, then it isn't. What do you mean by 'should be'?"

"Reporting to my senior master, I once encountered a giant python. This python was as thick as a water bucket and eight or nine meters long. Ordinary swords and knives could not harm it. In the end, I was lucky enough to insert the weapon into its mouth and belly before I was able to kill it."

Bai Chen explained simply.

Of course, the process of killing the giant python was modified to some extent, removing the modern firearms.

It's as thick as a water bucket, eight or nine meters long, and unharmed by swords and knives?

Xuanming Daoist pondered for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Nephew, have you perhaps encountered a strange beast?"

"What are strange beasts?" Bai Chen asked curiously.

"The so-called exotic beasts are wild animals that, by chance, consume spiritual herbs but fail to transform into demonic beasts."

This beast is neither a wild animal nor a demonic beast, hence it is called a strange beast.

Xuanming Daoist sighed, "I don't know if that beast was just too unlucky, or if you, my junior brother, were exceptionally lucky. You should know that such a beast is comparable to a Xiantian martial artist, yet it was killed by you, a mere fourth-realm martial artist."

Upon hearing this...

Bai Chen pondered to himself.

Does that mean that the combat power of an innate martial artist is about the same as that of a giant python?

In other words, a martial artist at the Innate Realm can withstand small-caliber firearms unless their vital organs are attacked.

Thinking of this, Bai Chen felt a surge of excitement.

This is practically superhuman! If this were on Earth, he'd be a mini-Superman.

You should know that if the giant python hadn't been killed from the inside by a grenade, it wouldn't have been afraid of submachine gun bullets.

Bai Chen still clearly remembered that when he was processing the giant python meat, the bullets only pierced the skin and then got stuck in the surface of the muscle.

"By the way, junior disciple, the beast's bones were used for cultivation, but what about the remaining flesh, skin, and snake gall?"

At this moment, Xuanming Daoist seemed to remember something and quickly asked.

"Uh, I lost it," Bai Chen said casually.

"Lost?"

Xuanming Daoist raised his voice, saying, "Such a treasure has actually been lost?"

"At that time, the disciple was in the deep mountains and could not carry too much. He could only remove the bones and discard the rest."

Bai Chen had no choice but to lie; he couldn't very well say that he had sent the python to another world.

Xuanming Daoist looked pained and sighed, "What a pity! What a pity! This kind of strange beast is a treasure from head to toe!!"

Its skin can be tanned into soft armor, making it impervious to swords and blades; its flesh can enhance internal strength and nourish the dantian.

As for the snake gall, it is an extremely rare treasure. If refined into a pill using secret methods, it can even help one break through to the Innate Realm. It is truly a blessing bestowed by Heaven!

After hearing these words...

A storm raged in Bai Chen's heart.

Holy crap, this dam is amazing! Is this python that powerful?

He didn't care about the soft armor in front, but the snake gall bladder, when refined into a pill, could actually allow a martial artist to break through to the Innate Realm?

Why does Bai Chen practice martial arts?

Isn't it all for breaking through to the Innate Martial Artist level, gaining the opportunity to cleanse the marrow and repair the lungs, and completely cure pulmonary fibrosis?

cross!

We must travel back in time immediately!

Bai Chen was somewhat anxious.

Because he was imprisoned on Earth, the python's meat and bones, as well as the fist-sized snake gall, were kept in the freezer of his rented apartment.

If a thief were to break in, stealing a few hundred thousand dollars wouldn't be a big deal, but if they stole the python's gallbladder, that would be truly heartbreaking.

If there weren't people around, Bai Chen would have loved to travel back to Earth immediately, escape from prison, and check on the situation inside the rented house.

"By the way, the Gate of All Realms is still in its countdown phase!"

Bai Chen quickly focused his mind and then saw the cooldown countdown...

1 day, 18 hours, and 51 minutes...

...

Seeing Bai Chen's frustrated expression, his occasional frowns and stamping of his feet, Xuanming Daoist gently called out, "Nephew?"

His tone was gentle, carrying the concern of an elder:

"Once the matter is over, it will dissipate like clouds. Gains and losses are all due to fate, so why dwell on them?"

Instead of lamenting the past, cherish the present and diligently cultivate yourself. With your heart set on the Great Way, your future lies beneath your feet; how could you not attain innate talent?

"Phew~"

Bai Chen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Yes, there's no use in rushing now. The Gate of All Realms still has one day and eighteen hours left to cool down.

Moreover, since he is on the Martial Continent, the flow of time on Earth will nearly stop.

I should focus on practicing my skills first, and then find an opportunity to travel back after the cooldown is over.

Bai Chen quickly bowed and clasped his hands in greeting, "Master Uncle's words are like a wake-up call; this disciple understands."

"good!"

Xuanming Daoist nodded with satisfaction.

Just as Bai Chen was talking to Xuanming Daoist, Tongyuan and Tongji, who were standing to the side, had already begun their second attempt.

Unfortunately, the two of them were in the Bone Refining Realm and were eating chicken bones, so their foundation was relatively weak. They also didn't have any lightness techniques to protect themselves, so they were swept away by the waterfall again.

Undeterred, the two exchanged tips on maintaining balance in the waterfall while making their third and fourth attempts.

...

Here.

Bai Chen also began practicing the Qigong Jingzhuang stance.

He walked to the pool below the waterfall and picked up a piece about the size of a large bowl.

Then, they stepped into the deeper water.

After the water submerged his body, a faint pressure came from all directions.

Anyone who has swum knows that if the water is deeper than your chest, you will feel short of breath.

This is water pressure!

As a martial artist, Bai Chen was able to clearly perceive the power of this water pressure.

They continued walking deeper into the pool until their entire bodies were submerged.

We arrived at the bottom of the pool.

Bai Chen looked up and estimated that the distance between the two points was about seven meters from the water's surface.

The originally slight pressure has become much stronger.

then.

Bai Chen immediately sat cross-legged, placed the stone on his legs, closed his eyes, and began to regulate his breathing.

The so-called breath regulation is not about breathing underwater, but about using meditation under water pressure to actively control the internal organs to resist the water pressure.

During the process of fighting, the internal organs will be strengthened, thus achieving the effect of tempering the internal organs.

Boom!

The pool was very quiet; Bai Chen could even hear his own heartbeat.

He closed his eyes, relaxed his body, and actively felt his heartbeat.

Thump~thump thump....

His heartbeat gradually weakened, and the reduction in oxygen slowed his blood flow.

A few minutes later.

Bai Chen pushed the rock aside and leaped out of the water, panting heavily.

Static standing meditation requires sensing the operation of the internal organs deep in the pool, and then actively controlling the power of the internal organs to resist the water pressure.

But just now, deep in the pool, apart from feeling his heartbeat, he didn't feel much in his liver, spleen, lungs, or any other organs, let alone actively control them.

Undeterred, Bai Chen sat on the bank for a while, then picked up a stone and plunged it into the pool.

that's it.

Once, twice... five times... ten times...

at last.

Bai Chen gradually found his footing and was even able to control his internal organs to resist the water pressure in the deep pool.
