The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 154: Chapter 99: Innate Nine Transformations (Part 3)

“Similarly, some martial artists may take longer to enhance more primordial power to achieve transformation. This is not a bad thing. Primordial power is like a liquid, and the martial artist’s body is the container. Being able to carry more primordial power in one transformation means greater potential and a higher possibility of breaking through to a high realm.”

At this point, she paused slightly and looked at Qin Jin, “This is also why the combat strength of innate martial artists with the same number of transformations varies greatly.”

“What I just said, about your ability to contend with the Third Shedding, or even the Fourth Transformation, refers to martial artists who are above average in the Federation’s combat strength standards.”

“The greatest difference between Federation martial arts and ancient martial arts is the availability of comprehensive data support, making every aspect more transparent.”

“Above the Innate Realm is called the Grandmaster.”

“Innate martial artists, after experiencing five transformations and mastering their own strength to the extreme, can be called Grandmasters!”

“Do not underestimate the Fifth Transformation; the results of each individual transformation are not equal, but ascend gradually.”

“Some martial artists with astounding depths, at this stage, can even fly off the ground, mastering abilities that humans should not possess.”

“The Nine Transformations of Innate refers to the perfection of a Grandmaster.”

Gu Huang’s voice slowed slightly, “After nine transformations, martial artists reach another threshold.”

“Martial Saint!”

A slight smile appeared on her lips, her eyes intrigued, “There are two choices to break through to Martial Saint.”

“One is to cultivate the Martial Saint Body using [Ancient Technique] to achieve a breakthrough.”

“The other is to create your own [Creation Technique], cultivating the Martial Saint Body and thus breaking through.”

Gu Huang stopped speaking here, and her voice ceased abruptly.

The surrounding ink faded away, and they had already arrived at another location within the academy.

Looking ahead, there was an extremely vast and enormous building in the shape of a tower, with thirteen floors visible from the outside, sharing the ancient style with other academy buildings.

In the middle of the tower’s body was a [plaque], on which three powerful characters were written in ink.

[Zhenwu Tower]

“Master Gu.”

Qin Jin’s gaze lingered on Zhenwu Tower for a moment, then he spoke, “And… Celestial Being?”

He had never encountered information on cultivation at such a high realm before, and was naturally curious now.

“Celestial Being is too far from you now.”

“Moreover, that’s a completely different realm.”

Gu Huang did not answer directly, but said sternly, “Five Transformations as a Grandmaster, Nine approaching Martial Saint; in reality, the Martial Saint Realm is equally distant from you.”

“But…”

“Your talent is extraordinary, and you are my student, so I am telling you this to prepare you thoroughly for the coming cultivation, to make choices in advance.”

“In the future…”

“When you truly approach Martial Saint, will you choose [Ancient Technique] or [Creation Technique]?”

Qin Jin listened intently.

When he thought of this, a person came to mind.

Su Chaotang.

According to Teacher Chu, Su Chaotang left with what he sought, to break through to Martial Saint.

If he created his own technique, why would he seek out Chu Tianyi?

“So…”

“Teacher Su chose [Ancient Technique], and obtained the [Ancient Technique] from Teacher Chu?”

The thought flashed through his mind, and Qin Jin spoke, “Master Gu, which one do you recommend?”

“Me?”

Gu Huang walked ahead, entering the [Zhenwu Tower], her voice carried by the wind.

“If you cannot create your own technique, how can you claim to be a Saint?”

She did not speak directly.

The meaning, however, was self-evident.

Qin Jin looked thoughtful, following behind her.

Before reaching here, Candle Kite had evidently prepared in advance. As the three figures, two large and one small, approached the door, it opened automatically.

Qin Jin followed Gu Huang inside.

Upon entering the [Zhenwu Tower], Qin Jin paused slightly, his gaze sweeping the surroundings and a ripple in his eyes.

From the outside, this thirteen-story high building was already grand.

But upon entering.

The style was entirely different.

The interior of this building used space expansion technology, appearing wider than it looked from the outside.

As far as the eye could see, the ground and the sky above were filled with countless furniture resembling [bookshelves]. On these shelves were papered ancient books, technological hard drives, and neatly stacked Martial Arts Crystals, arranged everywhere.

Qin Jin’s gaze turned upward.

On the top layer, he even saw some objects resembling Treasure Pearls, although seeing them for the first time, their purpose was obvious given the location.

They were also carriers for recording martial arts heritage!

This [Zhenwu Tower].

Holds the vast heritage of the Wuyuan Academy Martial Arts Series, a true Scripture Pavilion!

Ahead.

Gu Huang’s voice sounded again.

“Qin Jin, I have said before, after the Innate Realm, your cultivation method will be completely different.”

“Previously, you cultivated Breathing Technique and Visualization Technique.”

“The Breathing Technique excavated one’s potential, refining life energy, while the Visualization Technique endured pressure, enhancing spiritual power.”

“But…”

“These were just the most rudimentary methods of cultivation.”

“Pre-Innate martial artists are too fragile; using external objects would pollute their essence.”

“Now that you have entered the Innate Realm, you should also see the truth behind these two cultivation methods.”

“Take Visualization Technique for example.”

Gu Huang extended her hand to lightly tap the air; ink emerged, forming into a human figure.

That human figure sat cross-legged, visualizing a terrifyingly fierce monster.

During the visualization.

Specks of ink from the monster flowed toward the visualizer, eventually purified, converged at the heart.

“One’s essence remains untainted, unperturbed by worldly dust.”

“Innate martial artists, during visualization, no longer cultivate merely by external pressure, but by comprehending the extraordinary factor from the visualization object, refining it into the purest power and integrating it within oneself!”
