Atlas of Heaven and Man

Chen Chuan listened to Teacher Xue's solemn admonition, not daring to be careless. He focused his mind and spirit, and after two minutes, he opened his eyes and looked at Teacher Xue.

Teacher Xue saw the bright light in his eyes, knowing that his spirit had been refined and focused to the extreme. He said solemnly, "Student Chen, get ready."

As soon as his words fell, a bright light suddenly burst out from his eyes. Chen Chuan felt as if the surrounding scenery was melting and receding backward, as if he was sitting in a void, and even the concept of his own existence was fading away.

However, unlike last time, there was now a heart jade conjured through visualization. It seemed to be the only light in this space, anchoring his existence.

At this moment, suddenly, a dazzling bright light appeared in front of him, a more intense radiance that seemed to tear through the void like a great sun, intruding in and expanding rapidly, as if it could engulf the tiny light in an instant.

Under such pressure, Chen Chuan instinctively condensed his spirit more firmly and tightly. In the next moment, he felt a shock in his consciousness, as if he was about to be dissolved by the light. However, he firmly guarded the spark of his self, maintaining the most persistent thought, never allowing it to be encroached upon.

He didn't know how long it took, but the light finally faded away.

His heart jade, which was originally a glowing mass, was now only a grain-sized speck. But after a moment, it gradually diffused and slowly returned to its original appearance.

After this experience, it seemed to be a little brighter than before.

But before it could fully recover, the sun-like flame reappeared, its momentum even stronger than before, as if the level of perseverance from the previous time was not enough to resist it.

Yet Chen Chuan remained steadfast, without the slightest wavering.

Because he knew that the spirit relied on belief. The more confident and determined you are, the more concentrated you become. But if you doubt and hesitate, the harder it is to gather your strength. Therefore, in this kind of contest, any retreat, even the slightest, could turn the impossible into the possible.

So, no matter what, he couldn't give up. Even if it meant using all his strength, he had to block it. He didn't worry about anything, didn't even consider the consequences, only knowing that the unwavering will persisted there.

After this impact, when the light receded, everything seemed to disappear. However, the only spark of spiritual light still stood strong, although it had become almost imperceptible. But it was still there, slowly recovering, until it was restored once again, and this time, it became even brighter than before.

However, this was not the end. Just as it was about to recover, the great flame arrived for the third time.

Such impacts were repeatedly staged in the following moments. Even though Chen Chuan's heart jade was almost extinguished each time, it could stubbornly reunite with the slightest remaining fragment. Later on, it became increasingly bright, transparent, firm, and solid.

Teacher Xue said, "If we continue, it will only deplete your divine essence. There's no need for that. It's enough for you to understand what's going on."

He was satisfied with the test just now. With the tempering method just now, anyone whose will was slightly unsteady would have fainted directly.

Then there would be no point in talking about skills. If one's heart is not firm enough, no amount of practice will help.

He continued, "Tempering methods include external and internal refinement. What I demonstrated to you just now was the external refinement method. Now, I will tell you an internal refinement technique. Observe carefully."
