Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

"Old Zhang, have you succeeded?"

On the other end of the phone, Minister Chen's voice came with surprise. This was understandable, as Master Zhang was nearly ninety years old. Although he looked like he was in his fifties or sixties due to his profound cultivation, he was still quite old.

At such an age, to still carry out such a mission for the safety of the country is truly admirable.

Moreover, these kinds of tasks were all within the departments he managed, so he directly took on this responsibility, becoming Zhang Laodao's source of heartache.

He was surprised to find that Zhang Laodao's mission was going so smoothly. He had only been in Japan for a few days and was already staying at Miyazaki Yu's house.

"Minister Chen, we have indeed become friends, but it will take time to guide him. However, he has exceeded my expectations. He not only speaks our language, but also has a deep understanding of our culture. He can quote various classics and allusions with ease."

If it weren't for the fact that his information clearly states he grew up in Japan, I would have suspected he was from our Dragon Country.

Minister Chen was overjoyed.

The essence of any identification is actually the identification with a culture.

If there is no cultural identification, then there can never be any true identification.

Just like a certain kimchi-producing country in Asia, which desperately plunders other countries, especially the culture of Yanhuang, to an almost frenzied degree. Ultimately, it is because of the cohesive power of culture; they need culture to shape national self-esteem and self-confidence.

But since they themselves lack education, they can only resort to stealing and robbing.

Getting back to the main point, Minister Chen said happily, "Old Zhang, there's no need to rush these things. Recognition is something that is always formed gradually and imperceptibly. As long as you can spend some time with him, you can definitely influence his behavior slowly and subtly, leading him onto the right path."

Old Zhang laughed heartily: "He hasn't gone astray yet. Teaching the Americans a lesson is something I, the old man, want to do but can't. If I had such great abilities, I would be much more terrifying than this kid."

Minister Chen on the other side smiled, which was indeed the case.

If you were to ask which country the United States fears most, the answer would be undoubtedly China, which has been targeted and contained in every possible area.

China naturally harbors deep resentment towards the United States, but as a responsible major power, it can only compete within the established framework and retaliate within the rules, rather than resorting to extreme measures.

And now, someone has actually done it, giving Uncle Sam a good kick in the butt, which naturally makes them very happy.

"By the way, Elder Zhang, have you figured out the question we've been concerned about? What direction is this Sword Saint's power from? This is very important to us."

The old Taoist priest didn't hide anything and told Minister Chen in detail what he had discovered.

"So that's how it is. He has developed his physical strength to the extreme, almost to the point of physical sainthood. His internal strength cultivation has also reached its peak. Moreover, he has mastered mental power. His use of mental power probably surpasses even the top-level mental ability users."

He also possesses another mysterious power, and it is this power that forms his absolute defense!

Minister Chen gasped.

Chapter 624 Each Gets What They Need

As the head of a secret department specializing in handling these complex matters, he possesses considerable resistance to the strange events that occur in the world every day.

But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Often, a few words are all it takes to resolve a doubt.

Just like some questions that humanity has been searching for for countless years, a single, simple answer is all that is needed.

For example, do aliens exist? A simple "yes" or "no" would suffice to answer that question, but who in this world can guarantee that aliens definitely exist?

Therefore, many important questions are actually waiting for a simple answer, and Zhang Laodao's answer has this quality.

With just a few words, the entire department, which had spent a lot of time researching, reached a definitive conclusion, which is extremely important.

Because of the research on the source of Miyazaki Yu's power, many countries have even urgently established special departments to conduct special research projects.

On the Dragon Kingdom side, within Minister Chen's department, a special study on this point has been conducted, and many intelligent people have proposed numerous hypotheses.

Some believe that Miyazaki Yu possesses such great power because of a genetic mutation, just like other people with superpowers. There are also people with superpowers in China, which is determined by the country's large population. Therefore, this conjecture has gained the support of many people.

However, some people immediately raised objections, saying that Miyazaki Hayao's life experiences had already been thoroughly studied by them.

The traces of his growth step by step are quite obvious. His power must have come from cultivation, and it could not possibly be due to genetic mutation.

Based on the current analysis of the superpowers of people with special abilities worldwide, all superpowers enhance one specific ability; comprehensive enhancement is extremely rare, with no fewer than five such cases worldwide.

Moreover, sword energy is the core of Miyazaki Yu's abilities. His sword energy is truly terrifying, indestructible and capable of cutting through anything, which is exactly the same as the descriptions in many novels.

Therefore, there are quite a few people who believe that his power comes from cultivating internal energy.

Both of these conjectures are relatively plausible, supported by facts and arguments.

Other unreliable conjectures are like a drop in the ocean; reading them will not only fail to help us understand the truth, but will also create obstacles.

After listening to what Master Zhang said, he immediately made a judgment.

That means that their power comes from all sources except mutations!

The ultimate physical body brings powerful defense and movement speed as basic strengths, while the profound internal energy is the foundation for condensing sword energy. Furthermore, the person also possesses incredibly powerful mental strength, a power that was not analyzed in the previous battles!

In other words, right now, only the Dragon Kingdom knows that this Miyazaki Sword Saint possesses powerful spiritual energy!

In other words, he possesses a powerful physical body, superb swordsmanship, profound internal strength, and strong mental power, in addition to a strange power.

In this way, he possesses speed, perception, destructive power, and strong defensive capabilities!

A perfect blend of offense and defense, it's flawless!

Among this extensive analysis, there is actually quite a bit of truly effective information.

Even so, Minister Chen was very pleased. Through this information, research and analysis, he at least had a direction, which was much better than guessing randomly.

Moreover, their goal was to be on good terms with Miyazaki Yu as much as possible, but spying is an offense in itself, so to achieve this, they needed to try to guess based on information without being deliberate.

Therefore, every bit of information he received made him happy. Moreover, from the old man's tone, it was clear that their relationship was quite good. With this foundation, at the very least, the relationship between China and Miyazaki Kenshin could become the closest between the two countries besides Japan, which was already a great achievement.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Laodao focused his attention on the paper in front of him.

He had jotted down all of this information from memory, and many of the principles behind it were completely unheard of. It was no easy task to understand the underlying principles.

The old Taoist priest seemed to be speaking lightly and only covering the basics in his previous narration and discussion, but in reality, he was putting in his best effort. His explanation was profound yet simple, but that did not mean it was easy.

The same principle applies: building the framework is the most difficult part; once you have the framework, filling it in becomes much easier.

"We can't let our guard down. This kid's comprehension is too strong. I've studied Taoist classics for decades. I don't know how long I can keep teaching him."

If it were someone else, these things would be closely guarded secrets. Even a novice disciple of Taoism would need several years of observation and training before they would gradually be taught them.

Furthermore, the disciples' capacity to understand must be taken into account. These Taoist classics are obscure and difficult to comprehend, requiring many years of guidance from the master before one can gradually master them.

However, he now wants to take the initiative to become friends with Miyazaki Yu and gradually influence him, so of course he can't treat him like a disciple.

What he valued even more was that this kid was extremely proud and would never take advantage of him in the slightest.

In return for teaching him his skills, he would also pass on some of his own techniques to me, which was practically equivalent to exchanging techniques.

As long as a few so-called secret techniques are not taught, the other things are generally practiced by the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, so teaching them to Miyazaki Yu will not cause any problems.

He even made a profit. Miyazaki Yu told him these things partly because of his pride; he wouldn't take something from someone else for nothing.

Secondly, it must have been carefully considered; truly top-secret information would never be revealed.

However, this was more than enough for him. One leaf falling tells us that autumn is coming. From the methods Miyazaki Yu mentioned, we can roughly know his direction, which is the most important thing.

At this moment, in Miyazaki Yu's room, a smile appeared on his face. With his current level of insight, the old Taoist's every move was naturally under his surveillance.

Even if it were people from the Dragon Kingdom, he wouldn't let his guard down. His current identity was quite special, and there was no guarantee that someone wouldn't have ill intentions, so it was best to be careful.

Judging from the current situation, it seems that the other side wants to befriend me and subtly influence me, hoping that I will get on the right path and not use my power to harm the world.

However, if you ask him to say it, then you are really overthinking it.

My thoughts have never been about harming the world, but about living freely and fighting against America, partly because I am eager to save people, and partly to demonstrate my power.

Often, having power doesn't necessarily reduce trouble; demonstrating power is also an important part of it. Now, we can finally try a new approach.

Chapter 625 Connecting the Five Internal Organs (3rd Update!)

It must be said that the Taoist methods taught by Master Zhang greatly inspired him.

The universe breathes as one, and we dwell in nature, nurturing the vitality of the universe through our own being.

After having these new ideas, and after sorting them out according to my own understanding, I directly conducted simulated cultivation in the world of consciousness.

This process was indeed extremely dangerous. Even with his abilities, he conducted dozens of simulations before making his first attempt.

After calming his mind, his inner energy began to condense, like a powerful electric current, rapidly flowing through the meridians that were like electrical wires.

The meridians throughout his body were trembling slightly, and some delicate meridians were shattered because the internal energy that Miyazaki Yu was mobilizing at this moment was too powerful.

This is a capillary-level tear, which would normally be harmless, but there are simply too many of these at the ends of the meridians.

Countless tiny pains, when they erupt simultaneously, bring extremely sharp agony, but for Miyazaki Yu, this pain is nothing at all.

His body is incredibly powerful, with all the cells in his body being extremely active. Once his body is damaged, his self-repair mechanism will be activated immediately.

Sure enough, the broken ends of the meridians in his body were immediately repaired.

This is what is called unblocking the meridians!

Moreover, one needs to have internal energy to the point where water overflows when full before attempting this.

As for the stories in many novels about using sword energy to penetrate meridians or directly shattering and rebuilding them, according to Miyazaki Yu's current statement, these are simply nonsense.

In fact, since ancient times, there has only been one method for the Chong Meridian: to use the principle of "when the water is full, it overflows." After filling the internal energy to a certain level, the powerful internal energy is then overloaded and circulated in the meridians, which can achieve the effect of impacting the end of the meridian.

Moreover, generally speaking, after the terminal meridians are damaged, one should rest immediately to repair these broken terminal meridians, which is called expanding the meridians.

This also requires the use of techniques to seal the meridians, closing off some ends that do not need to be extended, and preventing unnecessary extension of the meridians.

This cultivation process is somewhat similar to bonsai cultivation, or like blowing glass ornaments with your mouth. It requires both natural repair and growth, as well as shaping and transformation.

Here we can consider the reality: a Taoist priest who studies Taoist techniques and martial arts, even if he is exceptionally talented, has been learning Taoist classics since childhood.

However, Taoist classics are profound and mysterious. It may take several years to reach the initial threshold of learning martial arts. Even if he had been learning Taoism since he was a child, starting at the age of six or seven, it would still take him to reach the initial threshold of cultivation at the age of ten.

Then she continued to study. As time went by, even though she had a smooth journey without encountering any bottlenecks, self-doubt, or slackness, or being disturbed by external factors.

Even if he reaches an ideal state and accumulates enough internal energy to begin the first meridian breakthrough, it will still take more than ten years.

At this point, a Taoist who has reached the point of opening the meridians can already be considered exceptionally gifted!

Even more difficult training lies ahead, because the opening of the meridians is highly uncertain, and each time the opening of the meridians is successful, it will cause damage to the body.

After one attempt to rejuvenate the Chong meridian, it takes at least two to three months of rest before one can attempt it again.

However, it's important to note that simply restoring the meridians isn't enough to break through the meridians. You also need to cultivate your skills to a deeper level, accumulate more internal energy, and fully replenish your meridians before you can attempt to break through the meridians again.
