Using your own blood, can you make the Bodhi Fruit ripen?
Luo Hongyuan heard this question and couldnât help but find it amusing. Do these two not know who Lin Cheng is?
If I dared to target Lin Cheng, it means my cultivation is at least stronger than his to have such confidence.
"I started practicing martial arts at ten, reached acupoint opening first layer at fifteen, became a Celestial Martial Artist at twenty-five, achieved Celestial Human Ninth Layer Perfection at fifty, and now Iâve broken through to Half-Step Divine Realm by myself.
The only reason I was once imprisoned was because the Second Commander recognized my unusual talent and spared me with compassion."
He lifted his head proudly.
Reaching Celestial Human Ninth Layer Perfection at fifty is indeed a record to be proud of even in a place like the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Implied is that using his blood to nurture the Bodhi Fruit is absolutely feasible.
Wei Fan said softly, "So useless, reaching Celestial Human Perfection only at fifty, arenât you afraid of being ridiculed for saying it so loudly?"
Pfft...
Even Long Xueyi was amused.
Luo Hongyuan is indeed considered a genius, but unfortunately, one before him is a horizontal cultivation prodigy, and the other is a Celestial Human Ninth Layer in his twenties, indeed making him seem useless.
"Youâre courting death!"
Luo Hongyuan was furious; his talent, which he was so proud of, was actually mocked.
He leapt into the air from a huge rock, using a long spear to draw the Power of Heaven and Earth and thrust it towards Wei Fan.
He was in a high position, with a terrifying Half-Step Divine Realm aura erupting like a torrential flood, causing the surrounding void to emit continuous explosions.
"Half-Step Divine Realm!"
This was Wei Fanâs first time facing a Half-Step Divine Realm master, and in an instant, he felt as if a giant stone pressed upon his heart spirit, hindering the flow of Qi and Blood Power, making him able to exert only about seventy to eighty percent of his strength.
This is a kind of spiritual oppression; with a lower realm than the opponent, itâs difficult to fully exert all strength.
"Be careful, donât engage in close combat with a Half-Step Divine Realm expert!"
Long Xueyi drew her sword and retreated.
The reason a Half-Step Divine Realm master is so called is that although they have not condensed a Divine Soul, their Power of Heart and Spirit has partially transformed, acquiring special abilities.
For example, even without using their eyes, a Half-Step Divine Realm master can clearly see the surroundings by releasing their Power of Heart and Spirit.
Moreover, their use of the Power of Heart and Spirit is already different from other Celestial Martial Artists.
Ordinary Celestial Martial Artists rely on True Intent or Sword Intent, unable to utilize the Power of Heart and Spirit extensively.
But for Half-Step Divine Realm masters, thereâs no need for such complexity; a single thought can form a Mental Shock, damaging the opponentâs heart spirit or even killing them spiritually.
Of course, this Mental Shock has a certain range, generally only effective within two to three meters; beyond this range, the power of a Half-Step Divine Realmâs heart spirit greatly diminishes.
Therefore, when Martial Artists not at the Half-Step Divine Realm face a Half-Step Divine Realm expert, the best approach is to distance oneself, reducing the opponentâs spiritual oppression to fully exert oneâs strength.
Wei Fan did not retreat; the True Intent of the Dragon Elephant Heaven-Supporting Skill surged from him, contending with Luo Hongyuanâs Power of Heart and Spirit.
In an instant, the feeling of a giant stone pressing on his heart improved significantly, but as Luo Hongyuan approached, the uncomfortable sensation gradually returned.
"Fortunately, I have Golden Bell Body Protection, otherwise I really wouldnât have a good way to deal with this Mental Shock, only countering with Sword Momentum."
With a single thought, Wei Fan released the restraint on the Golden Bell, and the Mental Shock disappeared completely.
He was just experimenting with the gap between his own Power of Heart and Spirit and a Half-Step Divine Realm, not without solutions.
Even without the Golden Bellâs defense, his Sword Momentum should be able to counteract the heart spirit assaults of a Half-Step Divine Realm.
As the long spear was about to strike him, Wei Fan sidestepped to dodge and punched Luo Hongyuanâs chest.
Boom!
The power of seven million catties felt like it slammed into a wall, and surprisingly, it didnât break through Luo Hongyuanâs Protective Gang Qi; instead, Wei Fanâs fist felt slightly numb, scattering quite a bit of his Qi and Blood Power.
"The Power of Heart and Spirit in a Half-Step Divine Realm is indeed profound, able to attack or defend!"
Wei Fan was somewhat surprised, not because Luo Hongyuanâs Body Protection Technique was so profound, but because under the augmentation of a Half-Step Divine Realmâs Power of Heart and Spirit, his Protective Gang Qi suddenly became formidable.
He remembered the term, "Mental Interference with Reality!"
This might be the biggest change in heart spirit when a Half-Step Divine Realm expertâs Power of Heart and Spirit transforms.
For Half-Step Divine Realm masters, the spirit is no longer an intangible and formless thing; they can manipulate and attack spiritually, maximizing the potential of heart spirit, and can even alter matter!
What Elder Huo referred to as the exotic technique of refining artifacts is probably another application of spirit, hence the mystery of the Divine Realm.
The real mystery lies in the transformation of the Power of Heart and Spirit, using it to accomplish many incredible things.
"Youâre not a Half-Step Divine Realm, so how could you not fear my Mental Shock?"
Luo Hongyuanâs eyes widened in disbelief.
He continuously executed several Mental Shocks against him, yet Wei Fan acted as if nothing happened. Not being in the Half-Step Divine Realm, how could one not fear a Half-Step Divine Realmâs spiritual assault?
Though the opponentâs strength was terrifyingly strong, his Qi and Blood Power had only transformed three times, meaning heâs just a Celestial Human Third Layer Martial Artist, absolutely not a Half-Step Divine Realm.
Suddenly, he had a flash of insight, "Do you have a Divine Soldier protecting you?"
Only a Divine Soldier crafted by a Divine Realm Martial Sect could allow someone below a Half-Step Divine Realm to not fear the impact of heart spirit.
