Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques-Chapter 130 - 126: Training

Mind, body, and nature.

The path beyond Saint Awakening far exceeded Zhou Yuanjue's imagination.

A saying in the Fist Techniques goes: The mind unites with the will, the will unites with the breath, and the breath unites with Power.

But for a Saint Awakening, these were mere trifles. In the Saint Awakening Realm, one began to commune with heaven and earth and with the deeper self, no longer confined to mere fists and feet.

Only by truly stepping into this realm could one comprehend its wonders.

In a spacious training room at the Secret Inspection Bureau's Southern Headquarters, Zhou Yuanjue stood silently in the center, his feet planted firmly and his eyes lowered.

This was no ordinary training room. It was constructed entirely from special Materials, making it Solid, wear-resistant, and heat-resistant. It was also surrounded by automated air exchange Devices, equipped with large reserves of pure oxygen for replenishment should the supply indoors become insufficient.

Furthermore, various data monitoring Devices were installed in the floor and walls of the training room, allowing for real-time tracking of changes in the trainee's physical condition.

Meanwhile, in the control room, Director Zhong Hongyu, the old head of the Secret Inspection Bureau's special hospital, and Yang Lina, a young doctor with short hair, stood in the center of the room. They observed Zhou Yuanjue's training session through the monitoring equipment, surrounded by assistants operating consoles and recording every piece of data.

This was all happening because Zhong Hongyu had personally requested it from Liehong Mountain, and Zhou Yuanjue himself had agreed.

Donghua Country began researching Saint Awakenings around the same time it started taking the threat of Celestial Demons seriously. Over the past decade or so, they had recorded a great deal of physical data on Saint Awakenings, but most of it came from veterans of the craft. Some had achieved the Saint Awakening Realm decades ago. Zhong Hongyu had never encountered someone who had just ascended, like Zhou Yuanjue. The data from Zhou Yuanjue's step-by-step process of breaking his body's limits to grow stronger was of immense significance to him.

Of course, Zhou Yuanjue hadn't agreed to the request so easily. Zhong Hongyu had promised that after the data collection, he would create a special, custom-tailored Energy meal plan based on Zhou Yuanjue's physical condition.

After entering the Saint Awakening Realm, Zhou Yuanjue found it increasingly difficult to replenish his Energy. This phenomenon had actually started to appear before his ascension. Back when he used the Nirvana Fire to recover his body, his progress had been significantly delayed by the need to replenish food and Energy.

Now, with his body strengthening at a rapid pace, the old secret medicinal formulas from the Red Falcon Fist were no longer sufficient. His daily diet had become a major problem, so now that a professional was willing to help, he certainly didn't mind paying a price.

In the training room, Zhou Yuanjue's Life Magnetic Field slowly expanded under the control of his mind, shrouding him in a faint red glow.

'First, I need to imbue my Life Magnetic Field with Perception Power...'

He tried to use his Psychic Power, in a state where his mind and body were one, to create a kind of resonance with the Life Magnetic Field around him, completely merging with it.

This was not difficult for him, and he achieved it quickly.

Then, he controlled his Life Magnetic Field, causing it to deform and extend minuscule tendrils to sense the surrounding Natural Magnetic Field.

Soon, his keen Spirit sensed some unusual fluctuations.

These fluctuations were even more complex than he had imagined.

If one were to represent the magnetic fluctuations of different properties with colors, then the world Zhou Yuanjue perceived was a mishmash of countless hues blended together. Furthermore, these different colors were not static; they were constantly shifting and transforming.

A myriad of phenomena, intermingling and ever-changing.

This was nature. Nature never had just a single attribute.

Only now did Zhou Yuanjue realize how difficult it was to capture the specific "color" he wanted from within this endlessly changing Natural Magnetic Field and use his own Life Magnetic Field to leverage it.

After standing silently for half an hour, Zhou Yuanjue still had nothing to show for it. He found it impossible to locate the fluctuation he wanted amidst the endlessly shifting Natural Magnetic Field.

He retracted his Psychic Power and Life Magnetic Field and began to think.

'Perhaps I need a more 'advantageous location'—a place whose characteristics align with my will.'

"Sunlight..."

He recalled the scene when Liehong Mountain had demonstrated the Heaven and Earth Melting Furnace Technique. With his back to the sunset's afterglow, the man's body seemed to have absorbed all the sun's final light and heat.

He looked to a corner of the training room. A glass skylight was set in the ceiling, and the bright, hot morning sun poured down through it, casting a patch of light on the floor.

He slowly walked into that patch of light, letting the sunlight wash over him.

"What is he doing?"

Yang Lina, who had been watching Zhou Yuanjue stand there like a statue for half an hour, finally couldn't help but ask with a frown.

"Shh. Just watch, and you'll understand," Zhong Hongyu whispered. "Did the Bureau Chief really teach him that method? Isn't it a bit too soon? That technique is incredibly dangerous..."

His eyes were glued to the monitor, as if he would rush out the instant something went wrong.

Seeing Zhong Hongyu's expression, Yang Lina opened her mouth to speak, then closed it. She glanced back at the monitor, a look of complete confusion on her face.

Standing in the sunlight, Zhou Yuanjue closed his eyes again. His Psychic Power resonated with his Life Magnetic Field, which slowly expanded outward.

'Light, heat...'

This time, with the help of the special environment, Zhou Yuanjue felt a change in the chaotic Natural Magnetic Field around him. A certain "color" had gained the upper hand and wasn't shifting along with the others.

In that moment, he had an epiphany.

He finally understood what the ancient texts meant by "gathering the essence of the sun and moon, and collecting the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth." He also understood why some Martial Dao Secret Techniques had to be cultivated under the noonday sun, beneath the moonlight, or in dark and gloomy places.

Before you understand it, it seems profound and mysterious. Once you see through it, it's actually nothing more than that.

The Great Dao was, in fact, just that simple.

He quietly extended a sliver of his Life Magnetic Field, attempting to connect and resonate with that "color."

VMM!!

Suddenly, he felt it—he had succeeded. A wave of Energy, leveraged by his own, erupted outward.

But in the next instant, his expression changed.

The intensity of the fluctuation was far beyond his expectations.

On the monitor, Zhong Hongyu and Yang Lina saw the faint red glow around Zhou Yuanjue's body rapidly intensify, growing several times brighter.

"The subject's body temperature is rising rapidly! It's already more than two and a half times that of a normal person!"

"The subject's bodily functions are destabilizing due to the high temperature! Organ failure possible in three seconds!"

"Abnormalities detected in the subject's heart rate, respiration, and blood flow! Internal organ damage is likely!"

"..."

A series of reports flooded into Zhong Hongyu and Yang Lina's ears.

"This is bad! Quick! Medical team, get ready!"

Zhong Hongyu's face fell as he shouted the order. Just then, he saw the red glow around Zhou Yuanjue abruptly retract, and a mouthful of dark red blood sprayed from his lips.
