Chapter 117: The Secret of the Innate, Another Breakthrough
"Innate Realm, huh?"
The elder doctor's face revealed an indescribable expression.
"This is a mysterious realm, but as for the specifics, you may first experience some of it."
After saying this, an aura emanated from the elder doctor and enveloped Lu Qing.
In an instant, Lu Qing felt as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on him.
The space around him seemed to solidify, making it difficult to move even a single finger from head to toe.
Lu Qing's gaze immediately showed horror.
Although he knew his master would not harm him, the suffocating sensation of being in the deep sea still frightened him.
Fortunately, the aura was swiftly withdrawn; the elder doctor merely let Lu Qing experience the pressure of the Innate Realm before retracting it.
A sense of relief washed over Lu Qing, clearing the earlier suffocating feeling as if it had been an illusion.
As for Little Yan and Little Li, they were still clueless, completely unaffected and feeling none of their master's aura just now.
But Lu Qing knew it was not an illusion; he had indeed been unable to move.
If his master had wanted to kill him, it would have been a matter of mere thought.
"Master, what was that just now?" Lu Qing quickly asked.
His mind contained the legacy of the Innate Realm level.
However, the legacy couldn't possibly cover every detail about the Innate Realm.
Li Weitian was not the type to fuss over things.
"What I just demonstrated is the unique 'Innate pressure' of the Innate Realm," explained the elder doctor.
"Postnatal Perfect Martial Artists who have cultivated their Divine Soul Power, upon breaking through to the Innate Realm with the aid of Heaven and Earth Laws, will see their sliver of Divine Soul Power quickly nurtured and strengthened considerably."
"This Divine Soul Power, combined with the aura of the Innate Realm, forms a unique pressure. Although it cannot directly harm a person, it can intimidate the heart and spirit of martial artists. Within the Postnatal Realm, only those with great resolve and strong will can break free from this intimidation."
"Even if there are martial artists who can resist being intimidated, under such pressure, their minds would be clouded, and their bodies burdened, hardly able to exert three or four tenths of their full strength."
"Innate pressure," Lu Qing murmured to himself.
At this moment, he finally felt a trace of the power of the Innate Realm.
Not to mention the body of an Innate Realm and the mysterious Innate True Qi and how formidable they were.
Just the Innate pressure alone gave him a natural advantage when facing Postnatal Realm martial artists.
"That's right. So, Qing, if you encounter someone from the Innate Realm in the future, you must handle them with caution, and never foolishly offend such beings."
The elder doctor knew his disciple had an astonishing talent and that it would not be long before he could step into the Inner Organs Realm.
A dazzling cultivation talent is often accompanied by strong confidence.
He didn't want Lu Qing to potentially provoke a dislike from an Innate Realm person in the future due to a lack of respectful attitude.
In that case, even with stunning talent, before absolute power, it would be vulnerable.
"Shouldn't offend the Innate Realm?" Lu Qing scratched his head upon hearing this, "Master, if you had said this a few days earlier, perhaps it might have been possible, but now, it's already too late; I seem to have already offended someone from the Innate Realm."
"What do you mean?" the elder doctor was taken aback.
"A few days ago, wasn't I gathering herbs in the mountains? Then, in a valley, I happened upon Ma Gu being pursued..."
"My guess is that those two villains who were chasing Mrs. Wei and her son might be from that force threatening the Wei Family in the County these days. I slayed them, and the mastermind behind that force probably won't let things rest."
Lu Qing detailed the event of how he had saved Ma Gu and Mrs. Wei and her child a few days ago.
Including the part where he killed those two disciples from the Heavenly Cang Sect.
The reason he hadn't spoken earlier was firstly because the master had not yet made his breakthrough, and speaking would have been useless.
Secondly, as the master was about to break through, he couldn't let his master worry, affecting his mental state.
Now that his master had finally broken through to the Innate Realm, he could speak freely about it.
"This..." After listening to Lu Qing's account, the elder doctor fell silent.
He hadn't expected that, no sooner had he cautioned him not to lightly offend the Innate Realm, his disciple revealed he had already done so, possibly even offending a well-established Innate Strong Person.
Yet, he couldn't say Lu Qing had acted wrongly.
Because he knew that if he himself had faced such a situation, he would have surely intervened, unable to merely watch as Ma Gu and Mrs. Wei and her child were harmed.
At most, he would not take the life of those two individuals.
But he knew his disciple's strength.
Until recently, he had only just entered the Muscle Bone Realm.
To have survived against two such powerful opponents was already a miracle.
To speak of holding back was pure folly.
So, for the moment, the elder doctor truly didn't know what to say.
"Master, did I do something wrong?"
Lu Qing asked somewhat nervously.
The elder doctor sighed, "You were trying to save people at the time, what fault is there in that? Facing such an event, it can only be said that the luck of us master and disciple is lacking. There is no talk of right or wrong." Continue your adventure at My Virtual Library Empire
Realizing his disciple had indeed offended such a powerful entity, suddenly, the elder doctor felt that his own breakthrough was somewhat less sweet.
Had he not made this breakthrough, he wouldn't have realized how powerful the Innate Realm was, and his heart wouldn't be as worried as it was now.
