High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

Yue Wuji looked at Su Jie with a profound gaze: "Your appearance has made me even more certain of this. You are a prodigy among our Tianming Stars who has successfully traversed this extreme path. But not everyone can be like you. I'm thinking, should we try to introduce the cultivation methods of the True Martial Realm, so that ordinary people can also have the hope of climbing to higher realms, instead of being trapped at low levels?"

"Now there's another method for awakening your martial spirit, which uses the martial spirit as a guide and relies on hunting to grow stronger. This method demands extremely high levels of mental fortitude and willpower, but it allows for rapid growth and can grant various special abilities."

Yue Wuji stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the starry sky, a grand blueprint forming in his mind:

"Perhaps in the future, our human race of the Celestial Star can embark on three parallel and mutually compatible paths of cultivation!"

"Those with exceptional talent and unwavering will, like you and me, can walk the 'Path of Ultimate Realm'! Pursue the pinnacle of martial arts techniques, meridians, and bones, condense the strongest martial spirit, break through laws with brute force, and become the elite fighting force and pillars of humanity!"

"Those with unwavering resolve and exceptional spirit can choose the 'Path of Martial Soul'! Awaken their Martial Soul early, hone their skills through battle, rapidly build their combat power, and become the backbone of humanity and individuals with special abilities!"

"Those with ordinary talent but tireless diligence can choose the 'Path of Body Tempering'! By cultivating the 'Nine Heavens of Body Tempering,' steadily building their skills and accumulating strength, they too can become a solid foundation for protecting humanity!"

"Three paths, each with its own emphasis, complementing each other! This allows people of different talents and temperaments to find a path that suits them! Only in this way can the foundation of our human race become ever stronger, and only then can we truly usher in an era of great prosperity!"

After listening, Su Jie pondered for a moment, then nodded seriously:

"Senior Yue, what you say makes sense. Our path, with its ninety-nine acupoints at level ten, ten meridians at their peak, and martial bones at the fifth rank... is indeed too difficult, destined to be suitable only for a very small number of people. If the entire human race is stuck on this narrow path, it will not go far."

He looked at Yue Wuji, his eyes clear: "I support your idea. We can first select a group of core members within the Martial Arts Association who have passed the test in terms of temperament and talent, and secretly try to switch to the methods of the True Martial World."

Let's observe the results and explore improvement plans that suit our Tianmingxing team. Even if it fails, the losses will be manageable.

Upon hearing this, Yue Wuji's eyes revealed a look of satisfaction. Su Jie not only possessed extraordinary talent, but also a vision and sense of responsibility beyond his years.

Yue Wuji patted Su Jie's shoulder heavily, "We'll do it your way! I'll push for the pilot program at the association, and you, go and explore the True Martial Realm to your heart's content!"

"I won't go with you. I need to process what I've learned this time. I'll also protect your students. Go on your own, and be careful."

After Su Jie and Yue Wuji parted ways, Su Jie used his personal computer to explain some things to Yang Baichuan, and then used his preparatory disciple token to return directly to his private stone hall.

He needs to confirm a key issue.

"Gong Ling," he said to the empty stone hall.

A familiar mechanical voice immediately responded: "Preparatory disciple Su Jie, do you have any questions?"

Su Jie cut straight to the heart of the matter: "I want to confirm whether the extreme cultivation path circulating among the Heavenly Star Sect, which subdivides martial acupoints, martial veins, martial bones, and martial souls to ultimately condense the [Martial Dao Battle Body], is the same special training method used by the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect to select and cultivate prospective disciples?"

Gong Ling's answer was without hesitation, confirming Su Jie's guess:

"Correct. This is the sect's 'Foundation Building Secret Record,' which aims to solidify a martial artist's foundation to the greatest extent, stimulate life potential, and pave the way for the supreme path of subsequent cultivation."

It further provides a set of data comparisons:

"According to the sect's endless years of data statistics, the [Nine Heavens of Body Tempering Realm] cultivation system that is prevalent in this starry sky is easy to popularize, but it has its limits. Under this system, the theoretical limit for an ordinary martial artist to cultivate the basic body tempering techniques to the perfection of the Ninth Heaven of Body Tempering Realm is 1000 stars (ten million combat power).

Even if a top-tier genius cultivates the best body-forging technique within this system, without considering special physique bonuses, upon reaching the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm, their base combat power would at most reach 2000 stars, which is equivalent to your 20 million combat power.

"Through the 'Foundation Building Secret Record' method, one can complete the extreme tempering of the martial acupoints, martial veins, and martial bones in sequence, and the peak basic combat power can reach at least 4000 stars. The martial arts battle body that is finally transformed has immeasurable potential."

Beyond the data aspect, what is even more crucial is the degree of tempering of the essence of life. The [Martial Arts Battle Body] achieved through this method has physical strength, blood quality, and soul resilience that are far beyond those of ordinary Body Tempering Realm martial artists.

This manifests as the ability, even at the Body Tempering Realm, to directly confront and even defeat a [Origin Realm] martial artist using their martial arts combat body.

A terrifying glint flashed in Su Jie's eyes!

Their basic combat strength at its peak reaches at least 4000 stars! Their physical body can withstand attacks from those at the Origin Realm!

This completely confirmed his feelings and Yue Wuji's guess! The path they were taking was indeed a path of extraordinary talent leading straight to the pinnacle! Although difficult, once they succeeded, their combat power at the same level would crush those so-called geniuses!

"I understand." Su Jie took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart. All his doubts vanished, replaced by an unwavering belief.

He no longer needed to hesitate on this path! He not only had to make it through, but he had to take it to an unprecedented extreme!

He currently lacks sufficient resources to continue refining his martial bones, cannot fuse with the Time-Space Dao Eye, and increasingly time-consuming the improvement of his soul power level. Su Jie also plans to postpone using the Time Secret Realm Experience Ticket, as it is not yet time to use it. So, he might as well go to the True Martial Realm to take a look first.

Just as Su Jie was about to leave the stone hall, Gong Ling's mechanical voice sounded again:

"Preparatory disciple Su Jie, you possess the Wanxiang Tianzong Preparatory Disciple Token, which makes traveling to and from the True Martial Realm much easier than for others. You can activate the True Martial Realm teleportation permission within the token, and the token will teleport you to a safe place in the target world."

Once you arrive, you can set a teleportation coordinate. After that, to travel back and forth, simply activate the token to teleport directly back to this stone palace or to the coordinate you set.

Su Jie focused his thoughts on the ancient token in his palm, and sure enough, a coordinate point called True Martial Realm appeared.

After Su Jie locked onto the coordinate point, a barely perceptible ripple spread through the space inside the stone hall, and his figure vanished without a trace, as if erased by an eraser.

After a slight feeling of spatial dizziness, Su Jie found himself in a desolate valley. The token in his hand was slightly warm, perfectly concealing the fluctuations of his blood and qi. His outward aura was like that of an ordinary mortal.

"This prospective disciple token can even conceal my aura; it's incredibly useful." Su Jie nodded in satisfaction and began to sense the world around him. The dense, almost tangible, energy of heaven and earth rushed towards him, causing every pore on his body to involuntarily open as he greedily inhaled it.

"boom!"

The Origin Breathing Technique surged forward with unprecedented efficiency, and on the system panel, the growth rate of Qi and Blood reserves skyrocketed from +10 points/second to +50 points/second!
