Chapter 223:

Chapter 223: Where No One Has Gone Before
In the Heavy Elemental Sword Technique, there were detailed records of measuring the orifices, as well as the method of subtly excavating the orifices. Nowadays, although his cultivation level hadn’t really reached the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm, it wouldn’t be dangerous to just measure the orifices.

As Chen Fei’s mind power, according to a special vibration frequency, began to permeate the entire body, the subtleties of the body began to be presented in front of Chen Fei.

Non-genuine disciples also had methods of measuring orifices as well as excavating them, just not as fine. Most of the inner disciples of the Yuan Chen Sword Sect, who wanted to break through the Orifice Practicing Realm, used that kind of method.

At this moment, as Chen Fei’s attention continued to focus, flesh, blood, bones, all these sorts of things were constantly skimmed over, and eventually, Chen Fei saw something that resembled a star, appearing under the mind’s vision.

When he was out of the secret realm, because of taking the Eternal Dream Lotus, Chen Fei’s mind power had skyrocketed, and he had a trace if any sensation for the orifices.

Now that his mind power had risen again, after all, he had used a special method to find it, and finally measured Chen Fei’s own orifice location at once.

At the moment, the acupuncture point looked a bit dim, but it was also constantly glowing with a faint light. Carefully observing, Chen Fei realized that the frequency of the shimmering light of the acupuncture point was actually consistent with the Heavy Elemental Sword Technique.

“Even though the orifices are not open, when one cultivates a technique, especially a top tier technique, one is still able to absorb a trace of Yuan Qi.”

It dawned on Chen Fei in his heart that this was the reason why he could feel his cultivation growth becoming faster in places where the Yuan Qi was thick. The orifices were not completely blocked and still had a little effect, allowing the human body to interact with Yuan Qi.

Chen Fei’s mind power began to approach the orifices and circled around, not finding any other special places.

With Chen Fei’s current base, he had actually far surpassed the vast majority of peak Viscera Practicing Realm martial artists, both in terms of the strength of his body and his mind power.

Thus, Chen Fei had actually already possessed several points for a breakthrough, and raising his cultivation to the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm was merely making the Body Refining Realm complete and better for a breakthrough.

In less than a month, Chen Fei’s cultivation would be able to be raised to the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm, and naturally, Chen Fei would not be in a hurry for such a small amount of time.

After all, the Viscera Practicing Realm was a crucial step, a stepping stone towards immortality, and it was time to wait, or to wait a little.

Looking close enough to the orifices, Chen Fei tried to let his mind power touch the orifices.

Not digging, just touching. In the records of the Heavy Element Sword Technique, contacting the orifice in advance would allow one to roughly feel the degree of closure of the orifice.

Some people with strangely strong roots and extraordinary talent had orifices that were nearly in a semi-closed state. As a result, those people’s cultivation speed far exceeded that of the others from the moment they came into contact with the martial arts.

Just because the orifices were semi-closed, they could absorb more of the surrounding heaven and earth vital energy.

The probability of these people breaking through to the Orifice Realm after reaching the peak of the Viscera Realm was also quite a bit higher than others. This kind of person, it was as if they were born for the martial arts path, and their cultivation realm increased at an extremely fast rate, envying the others.

As Chen Fei’s mind power approached the orifice, a barrier suddenly blocked Chen Fei’s mind power. Chen Fei was slightly stunned, what kind of situation did this belong to, how could a barrier appear before the orifice was even touched.

Chen Fei pondered for a moment, his mind power began to exert itself slightly, and in the next moment, a picture suddenly appeared in Chen Fei’s mind.

Facing the yellow soil and facing the sky, the proceeds of a year’s hard work could not even barely make ends meet.

A child was sitting high up on a hillside, looking down at the silhouettes of people laboring below, his hunger constantly surging as if it was going to burn through his entire intestines and stomach, and only by pressing down on his stomach with force could he barely fight off this pain.

“This is, the original body?”

This hunger was so strong that Chen Fei, who was outside the image, could clearly feel this feeling of despair.

The child had barely grown up, but it had stumbled upon a great drought and famine, and the village had lost half of its people all of a sudden.

Without hope, muddled life, the deepest impression, is standing in front of the thatched hut bowl of egg noodles, that is the most delicious food he has ever eaten.

After a long time, Chen Fei withdrew from this memory. As his mind power sensed that the barrier outside his orifices was still there, Chen Fei’s brows could not help but wrinkle slightly.

“This is the deepest memory of the original body? But what is the meaning of this memory, this barrier, and how should it be broken?”

Among the Heavy Elemental Sword Technique, there was no record of this happening, thus Chen Fei was more or less puzzled at the moment. When Chen Fei had traveled across, although he had absorbed quite a few memories of his original body, most of them were still things that happened in Pingyin County.

As for the original body’s earlier memories, I don’t know if it was too long ago or if the original body didn’t want to recall them in the first place, Chen Fei actually absorbed very little of them.

From the original body’s growth trajectory, it was the current situation of ordinary people in this world, especially those in remote places. As long as it touches a little bit of disaster, the people say no, there is no more.

Because of this, when the original body had the opportunity to enter Pingyin County to live, it was only when he spent all he had.

But, was this related to opening the orifices, in any way?

Early the next morning, Chen Fei arrived in the middle of Feng Xiupu’s courtyard. This matter could only be asked to someone with experience.

“You measured and found the orifice, but it was blocked by a barrier, and your mind power couldn’t get close?”

Feng Xiupu’s brows furrowed slightly when he heard Chen Fei’s question.

If one wanted to break through to the Viscera Realm to the Orifices Realm, opening the orifices was the only way to do so. The location of each person’s orifices were not the same, and one needed to measure them themselves and proceed to open them.

Whether the measuring and opening process went smoothly or not varied from person to person, and whether or not it was successful mostly depended on how strong and pure the mind power was. Chen Fei had demonstrated an extremely strong level of mind power in the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect’s martial arts arena. Logically speaking, measuring and opening the orifices would not pose too much of a hindrance to Chen Fei.

In the eyes of most people in the Yuan Chen Sword Sect, Chen Fei would definitely be able to become an Orifice Practicing Realm within a short period of one year, and definitely not more than three years in the long run.

Chen Fei himself felt the same way, thus measuring and locking down the orifices in advance and knowing them well beforehand. Just waiting for his cultivation to reach the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm, he could proceed to make a breakthrough.

“According to what you said, you saw images of the past in the barrier. It should be a kind of obsession, unravel this obsession and this barrier will perhaps disappear.”

Feng Xiupu thought for a moment, back then, he should have seen this situation in some tome.

At the time, in order to break through the Orifice Practicing Realm, Feng Xiupu’s background was not as exaggerated as Chen Fei’s nowadays, and thus he had done a lot of homework, and even searched through all kinds of canonical books.

The majority of the Viscera Realm is like Feng Xiupu, will be a variety of possible situations, all know, regardless of whether it can be used, to understand the again.

“Obsession?”

Chen Fei frowned slightly, this kind of obsession, was it intended for him to go back to that countryside and take another look? Wanting to return to the countryside with his clothes on?

This kind of obsession, the original body might have always had, if it was the original body that had this cultivation level today, this kind of obsession, it was estimated that a little self-enlightenment could be unraveled.

After all, people are the best, sometimes is the self relief, and then big things, the passage of time, can be self-smoothing away.

But the problem today is that the original body’s soul has long since dissipated, and this obsession is directly rooted in the depths of the body, all the way to the orifices side.

To persuade someone to be generous, or to persuade a soul that had long since dissipated, to let him think about it, this was a complete impossibility.

“This kind of obsession, you can try to erase it with your heart and soul power, the time used may be slightly longer, but it can be done.”

Feng Xiupu knew that Chen Fei came from a remote place, and nowadays, with the soldiers outside, although Chen Fei possessed the peak battle power of the Viscera Practicing Realm, or even a little stronger.

But at a time like this, it was better to try not to go out if you could.

“Alright, I’ll try again.”

Chen Fei nodded, thinking that it was better to try for a while longer. With his current mind power, and the fact that he still had to enter the Mind Trickster Realm from time to time every month to quench, the barrier outside of his orifices could probably be hardened and worn down.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Fei left Feng Xiupu’s courtyard and returned to the True Transmission Peak.

The matter of measuring the orifices was like a small episode, and Chen Fei quickly pressed it under his heart.

The daily rhythm of life was also as before, refining and cultivating. Because the Heavy Yuan Sword had long since reached full completion, it had allowed Chen Fei to free up quite a bit of time for other things.

A month later, Chen Fei’s cultivation had officially broken through to the peak of the Viscera Realm. On this path of the Body Refinement Realm, Chen Fei had already reached the peak.

When the Body Refining Realm cultivation was truly complete, Chen Fei felt a change in his body. An overflowing, self-contained feeling presented itself in Chen Fei’s heart.

The skin, flesh, bones, marrow, and organs formed a whole under the string of internal energy. Along with that, it unexpectedly caused the cultivation speed of the Zhen Longxiang to increase a bit.

Although the amount of Yuan Qi absorbed with the Nayuan Bead every day was still limited, the Zhen Dragon Elephant’s cultivation speed had at least increased by more than thirty percent, and it was getting closer and closer to the Zhen Dragon Elephant’s Great Perfection.

Not only his physical body, but under the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm, Chen Fei’s mind power had also become much more agile.

“No wonder it’s at the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm before going for a breakthrough to open up an orifice, it’s indeed not quite the same.”

Chen Fei couldn’t help but have a small smile on his face as he sensed the changes in his body from the inside out. But as soon as Chen Fei thought of the barrier outside the orifices, the smile could not help but slowly disappear.

For a whole month, Chen Fei would use his mind power to grind that layer of obsession every day, he couldn’t say that it was ineffective, but the effect was really poor, just a little bit of it was worn down.

Now that his cultivation had officially reached the peak of the Viscera Practicing Realm, and his mind and spirit power had become a lot more agile, Chen Fei wanted to see if this situation could speed up the wearing down of that layer of obsession.

Another month, Yuan Chen Sword Sect True Transmission Disciple Half Yearly Evaluation. Chen Fei was directly assessed by the True Transmission Peak as the True Transmission Chief, and no one challenged or disobeyed. When the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect’s competition was first held, these True Transmission were still fresh in their minds.

Thinking about the misery of Wang Guiwu and the others, no one in the Yuan Chen Sword Sect true disciples wanted to look for a beating.

Chen Fei had created a new record for the Yuan Chen Sword Sect, a newly promoted true bias for half a year, directly becoming the chief true bias, unprecedented.

Guo Linsan was in front of the True Transmission Hall, his face full of smiles. Although Guo Linsan was still only just getting started with the True Transmission Technique, it did not affect his happiness and pride for Chen Fei.

It could be said that Guo Linsan had witnessed Chen Fei, step by step, walk from an ordinary inner disciple to his current position!
