Chapter 4: Condensing Divine Inscriptions, Cultivating Divine skills!
In the blink of an eye, another fortnight had passed.
After a full month of rest, Ling Feng finally mustered the strength to get up and walk around.
From this, it was evident how terrifying the burden on the body was with the Emperor's Eye. Given Ling Feng’s state, merely surviving the successive activation of the Emperor's Eye was a stroke of luck.
After dinner, Ling Feng sat alone on the bed, cradling a slightly yellowed ancient book titled The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion in his hands.
The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion encapsulated a lifetime of dedication from Ling Feng's grandfather.
Over the years, Ling Feng had already mastered all the medical techniques within it. However, despite numerous readings, he never uncovered the hidden secrets about his own origin.
"Perhaps only by combining the two volumes of The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion can I unravel the mystery of my origin."
Ling Feng clenched his fist, realizing after the incident with Su Lin, medical skill alone wasn't enough. He must also become strong!
Ling Feng perused the medical scripture in his hands. Despite becoming thoroughly familiar with The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, each time he revisited the medical scripture, he couldn't shake the feeling that his own grandfather's understanding of the human body had reached an unprecedented level.
As a physician, Ling Feng had naturally perused countless other medical scriptures, yet none could compare to The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion.
Ling Feng took a deep breath, a peculiar idea flashing through his mind: If Grandpa were to cultivate, he might become an unparalleled expert!
At that moment, Ling Feng felt a sudden burning sensation in his eyes. Since the opening of the Emperor's Eye, his eyes often felt warm, as if a formidable force were ready to burst forth from his gaze.
"Ah!" Ling Feng murmured, refocusing his gaze. Eerily, he discovered that the medical book in his hands seemed to shimmer with a page of golden script.
"The... Art... of... Chaotic... Divinity!"
Gazing at the golden page, Ling Feng found the title inscribed in bold strokes as The Art of Chaotic Divinity resembling five mighty dragons. The image seared into his mind, evoking a profound and awe-inspiring sensation.
"The Art of Chaotic Divinity?"
Lingfeng took a deep breath and continued reading.
"With the Blood of the Emperor within, one can cultivate this scripture."
"As the child of the heavens, the left eye embodies Human Dao[1], the right eye embodies Heavenly Dao[2], and the third vertical eye signifies the Asura’s eye."
"These three eyes are collectively known as the Emperor's Eye."
A wave of shock and astonishment surged within Ling Feng' as he looked at the golden page, finding it increasingly unbelievable.
On that day, he did open all three eyes. No wonder he became so weak afterward!
Ling Feng continued reading, and within the The Art of Chaotic Divinity, he discovered detailed cultivation methods for the Eyes of Human Dao and Heavenly Dao.
"The Emperor's Eye, controlling the changes of the six qi, Condensing Divine inscriptions, Cultivating Divine Skills!..." free
Ling Feng, with his profound knowledge of medical principles and a deep understanding of the human body, encountered no difficulties as he delved into the The Art of Chaotic Divinity. Instead, it felt as if he had divine assistance, comprehending it effortlessly.
After approximately half an hour, Ling Feng repeatedly perused the thin page, effortlessly absorbing its contents.
While it didn't delve into Ling Feng’s personal origins, the manual provided valuable insights into the true significance of the "Emperor's Eye."
The adverse effects weren't caused by some malevolent force driving him insane and draining his life; instead, they were triggered only by forcibly activating it without understanding the proper method.
At least, the eyes of Human Dao and Heavenly Dao did not pose such dangers.
Regarding the Asura's Eye, Ling Feng lacked clarity on its cultivation methods. He assumed that the techniques might be documented in the second volume of the Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion.
Ling Feng delicately closed the book and followed the guidance of the The Art of Chaotic Divinity, gradually attuning himself to sense the mentioned "six qi."
The six qi [3], namely Jueyin-Wind or Wood of the Liver, Shaoyin-Heat or Fire of the Kidneys, Taiyin-Dampness or Earth of the Spleen, Shaoyang-Heat or Fire of the Heart, Yangming-Dryness or Metal of the Lungs, and Taiyang-Cold or Water of the Bladder, correspond to the twelve meridians in the human body.
For instance, Jueyin-Wind or Wood of the Liver aligned with the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian and Hand Jueyin Heart Meridian. Shaoyin-Heat or Fire corresponded to the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian and Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian.
While the average person might find it confusing, for Ling Feng, who was well-versed in medical principles, it was a piece of cake.
As Ling Feng practiced the changes of the six qi following the guidance of the Human Dao Eye, a single iteration was sufficient for him to perceive a gentle warmth in his left eye.
Approaching the mirror, he scrutinized the pupil of his left eye, revealing an intricate rune reminiscent of the Tai Chi yin-yang fish, gracefully swimming within the confines of his eye.
A stir coursed through Ling Feng's heart. Was this what they referred to as "Condensing Divine inscriptions, Cultivating Divine Skills"?
With the divine inscriptions now formed, what kind of Divine Skill will I acquire?
In accordance with the The Art of Chaotic Divinity, the first ability of the Human Dao Eye is Absorption and Assimilation.
Ling Feng, on the brink of expressing his surprise, observed his body undergoing a profound transformation. It morphed into a vast vortex, drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy of the heavens and earth, as if enchanted.
Subsequently, it felt as if a dormant aspect within him had awakened, and a delightful sensation cascaded through his entire body.
His pupils contracted slightly, and within his dantian [4] and sea of qi, a trace of true qi seemed to emerge!
Although Ling Feng had never cultivated, he had healed numerous martial practitioners.
The emergence of true qi in the dantian indicated the sign of a martial artist advancing to the Qi Formation Realm!
In martial arts cultivation, the initial stage is referred to as the Body Refinement Realm. During this phase, individuals were not yet recognized as warriors but are merely martial apprentices.
Regular individuals, beginning from their youth, had to endure the procedure of body forging, involving years of rigorous training. Achieving the tenth stage of body forging required several years, or even decades, of strenuous cultivation. Only at this point could one harness qi, progressing to the Qi Formation Realm.
Yet, Ling Feng, devoid of any prior cultivation, swiftly ascended to the Qi Formation Realm merely by activating the Human Dao Eye!
With excitement, Ling Feng's hands trembled at the thought. "Triggering this initial divine inscription will significantly accelerate my cultivation pace!"
Suddenly, a wave of weakness washed over Ling Feng. Swiftly, he dismissed the divine inscription, and the turbulent spiritual energy in the surroundings calmed.
Taking a slow breath, Ling Feng realized that, at his current level, the initial divine inscription of the Human Dao Eye could only be sustained for approximately thirty breaths before fatigue set in.
Nevertheless, thirty breaths daily prove ample!
Those thirty breaths surpassed several years of ordinary cultivation and rigorous training for an ordinary person!
After a short rest, Ling Feng resumed the process of condensing the first divine inscription of the Heavenly Dao Eye.
According to The Art of Chaotic Divinity, the first ability of the Emperor's Eye was called Insightful Mirage.
This implied that any martial technique or skill, when demonstrated in front of the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, would be fully comprehended and could be replicated effortlessly.
Eagerly, Ling Feng immediately started following the method in The Art of Chaotic Divinity, initiating the formation of the first divine inscription of the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
After a short while, Ling Feng successfully formed the first divine pattern of the Eye of the Heavenly Dao. Unfortunately, he couldn't test it out just yet.
Ling Feng, weary from consecutively forming two divine inscriptions, finally succumbed to a deep sleep, clutching The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion.
