Imperial Cultivation

Even against those in the Qi Transformation Realm like the Fourth and Sixth Princes, I am confident.

The Great Brightness Fist's realm is enough to level these cultivation realm differences.

But, facing the Transformation Realm, it's different.

The True Yuan of the Transformation Realm is purer, and one's speed and strength are greatly enhanced.

The strength they can draw on is also much stronger.

If the same Great Brightness Fist is used, at the same realm level, those in the Qi Transformation Realm are naturally no match for those in the Transformation Realm.

The Transformation Realm has another advantage over the Qi Transformation Realm; it's easier to reach the Entry Intent and Transformation Intent of the Great Brightness Fist.

The four main realms of martial arts cultivation faintly correspond to the eight major realms of martial arts.

Entry Intent and Transformation Intent are hard to grasp in the Qi Transformation Realm of martial arts, but it becomes much easier in the transformation cultivation realm.

The Yin Yang Fish in the Dantian condenses into a core and rises to the Middle Dantian, which is the Transformation Realm.

Reaching the Middle Dantian affects the mental state more significantly, making it easier to maintain a stable mental state, allowing the mind to be sharper and more in tune with the martial arts mental realm.

If one cultivates using the Infinite Brightness Scripture and reaches the Transformation Realm, it's easier to maintain a bright mental state, less prone to external disturbances, thereby truly aligning with the mental intent of the Great Brightness Fist.

This is the entry into the intent of the Great Brightness Fist.

Chu Zhiyuan does not need to step into the Transformation Realm cultivation but can achieve Entry Intent or even Transformation Intent relying on his transcendental mindset, powerful spirit, and soul.

Other princes in the Qi Transformation Realm find it difficult to achieve this.

If they had the Transformation Realm cultivation, it wouldn't be so hard for them to reach the Entry Intent of the Great Brightness Fist.

He judged that if nothing goes wrong, the Eldest Prince and the other two should have trained the Great Brightness Fist to the Transformation Intent.

That means for him to surpass them, he must train the Great Brightness Fist to the Divinity Intent.

With this in mind, he spoke, "Mother Concubine, I want to see the Divinity Intent level of the Great Brightness Fist."

Consort Hui furrowed her eyebrows slightly, "Divinity Intent level?"

"Training to the Divinity level of the Great Brightness Fist..." She pondered for a moment, "Those who train in the Great Brightness Fist are all princes, there should be someone teaching the Great Brightness Fist at the Great Bright Peak, right?"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I can't go over there."

Even though there are Princes teaching martial arts at Diwu Academy, he is only permitted to go to Qingfeng Cliff.

Chu Qiao said, "I have a way, big brother, do you know what my method is?"

"Send a message to the uncles at Diwu Academy?"

The martial arts instructors at Diwu Academy are naturally the Princes.

In this world, the only ones who can cultivate the Great Brightness Fist and the Infinite Brightness Scripture are the princes.

Those responsible for teaching this generation of princes can only be the princes from the previous generation, today's princes, their uncles, or fathers.

Chu Qiao said, "I see Uncle Fifteen is very interested in you, big brother."

"It's Uncle Fifteen's turn?" Consort Hui's spirits lifted, she said eagerly, "Master Fifteen has even joined the Spirit Guard!"

The standard for the Spirit Guard is a Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation, with at least one martial art reaching the entering spirit level.

The Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation and entering spirit martial arts, these two thresholds prevent many from reaching it.

Most people in the world are in the Qi Transformation Realm, with only one in hundreds reaching the Transformation Realm, and one in thousands reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm.

The vast Yujing Dynasty, with billions of people, has most of its Divinity Transformation Realm experts gathered in the Imperial City.

Thus, within the Imperial City, there are many Divinity Transformation Realm experts, and it is rare to find even one in a small city, which could secure the city.

Therefore, the whole Yujing Dynasty has only a thousand in the Spirit Guard, fighting in the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Those who join the Spirit Guard are brave and outstanding warriors, all meritorious ministers to the Dynasty.

The battles with the Demon Clan and Demon Tribe are the most brutal and bloody.

Those who return from the Outer Realm Battlefield are different from ordinary Divinity Transformation Realm experts.

Anyone who has served in the Spirit Guard is looked upon with respect and cannot be underestimated.

"Uncle Fifteen..." Chu Zhiyuan thought, shaking his head, he had no impression.

The original owner had never met this Uncle Fifteen, possibly because of bad timing or because Uncle Fifteen had always been in the Outer Realm Battlefield.

"Uncle Fifteen has just returned from the Outer Realm Battlefield, I think only for a few days." Chu Qiao said excitedly, "He told us some stories about the Outer Realm Battlefield."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Will Uncle Fifteen return to the Outer Realm Battlefield again?"

"It seems he won't go this time after returning." Chu Zhen shook her head, "Uncle Fifteen was severely injured."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Injured severely, still able to perform the Great Brightness Fist?"

"Severely injured his foundation, but it doesn't hinder teaching everyone the Great Brightness Fist." Chu Zhen said, "He also teaches us the Jade Scenery Cave Heaven Scripture."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Then I'll trouble you Zhen'er and Qiao'er."

Since he couldn't go to Diwu Academy himself, he could only have Uncle Fifteen come over.

"A piece of cake!" Chu Zhen laughed sweetly.

"That is also a way." Consort Hui nodded, "Uncle Fifteen is formidable, well worth learning from, just worried he may not think much of you."

"Mother, big brother is an extraordinary martial arts talent now!" Chu Zhen laughed, "He'll definitely catch Uncle Fifteen's eye."

Chu Qiao nodded vigorously.

Consort Hui shook her head, "This Uncle Fifteen has high expectations."

"Mother Concubine, rest assured," Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "It's a piece of cake."

Chu Zhen and Chu Qiao giggled.

Consort Hui gave him a sidelong glance and said seriously, "Practice well, but don't push yourself too hard."

She didn't believe Chu Zhiyuan could compete against the Eldest, Second, or Third Princes.

The shameless tactics of the three, who could compete against them?

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Having come this far, how could he not fight on?

——

The midday sun was shining directly above.

Warm on the body, it made one drowsy.

But Chu Zhiyuan remained immersed in the scenery of the Great Bright Peak, the vortex in the void above his head growing larger, rapidly absorbing spiritual energy.

He suddenly sensed something.

On a large boulder in the distance, unbeknownst to him, a middle-aged man appeared, standing quietly to observe him.

This middle-aged man had a round face, a handsome and gentle scholar-like appearance, with three strands of clear chin beard and white hair at the temples.

In a moment of daze, Chu Zhiyuan seemed to see two suns shining in the sky.

One was in the void above the Great Bright Peak, and the other was on that large boulder.

Once he focused again, the sun disappeared, and it was still that handsome and gentle middle-aged man.

This was the Infinite Brightness Scripture cultivated to a certain level, where essence, qi, and spirit transformed into a sun.

This cultivation must not be the Transformation Intent, it should be the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Then his identity should be the previous generation's Fifteenth Prince, Chu Honglin.

He opened his eyes and turned to look over.

The handsome and gentle middle-aged man floated softly into the air, as if supported by an invisible force, gliding over.

Two Imperial Guards clasped their fists and saluted, "Greetings, Prince."

The gentle middle-aged man waved his hand and looked at Chu Zhiyuan, "Brother Nine, do you recognize me?"

"Uncle Fifteen?" Chu Zhiyuan inquired.

The gentle middle-aged man nodded, "Your cultivation speed is astonishing."

He could see that Chu Zhiyuan's spiritual energy absorption rate far exceeded ordinary princes, almost sixfold in difference.

Based on this cultivation speed alone, it was clear he was a prodigy, not to mention his deeper and faster understanding of the Great Brightness Fist.

An individual with a dark heart, deep resentment, and violent tendencies could barely step into the Great Brightness Fist.

To cultivate the Great Brightness Fist to the Transformation Intent proves one is not a bad child.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Uncle Fifteen, you're injured? Is it healing?"

"No matter," Chu Honglin shook his head, "You want to compete for a place in the Jade Scene Cave Heaven, right?"

"Yes."

"Do you know who you must compete against?"

"Eldest Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother all want to compete; it'll be lively," Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "I like joining in on the fun."

"Do you think you can outcompete them?"

"How can one know without trying?" Chu Zhiyuan sneered, "It's not to the point where I'm afraid to compete. I want to see Uncle Fifteen's Divinity Intent level of the Great Brightness Fist."
