Narration System for the Journey of Martial Arts

The next second, nearly half of the primordial spirit, now a crimson gold color, appeared above his head. The power of numerous rules, including Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, life, and divine punishment, surged forth. Heaven and earth became a furnace, and thunder was like a divine hammer, performing the final forging of the body and primordial spirit.

Each bolt of lightning that struck stirred up wisps of gray-black dust on the physical body. The lightning rained down, landing on the primordial spirit and emitting an illusory 'sizzling' sound.

With each bolt of lightning, the physical body and the primordial spirit improved, and the vitality transformed from the primordial energy of heaven and earth constantly clashed with the destructive power of the lightning on the physical body and the primordial spirit.

The Yin and Yang energies decompose the destruction and creation conceived in the thunder, and the Five Elements energies recreate the five internal organs after destruction.

………………

Spiritual practice transcends years, yet time flies by.

over nine days.

A fierce wind raged, and thunder roared like rain.

Su Yuchen sat upright in the sea of ​​lightning, and all the strange phenomena on his body began to subside. When the last bolt of lightning struck, Su Yuchen's primordial spirit had already transformed into seventy percent of its original flesh and blood color. The primordial spirit, the size of an adult, smiled slightly, stepped into the sea of ​​consciousness, and Su Yuchen opened his eyes, reached out and clenched his hand, crushing the last bolt of lightning.

It has an ordinary body like a normal person, but it exudes an aura of indestructibility and undying power. Its seemingly frail physique can easily grasp scattered thunder and rain.

With a thought, the unfathomable true essence within his body transformed into threads, intertwining and colliding with each other, quickly forming a cyan-colored Daoist robe that enveloped Su Yuchen.

With a wave of his hand, nine longswords appeared out of nowhere in the sky. With a casual grab, scattered thunder and lightning rained down on the nine longswords like water.

While focusing on refining the longsword, Su Yuchen also examined himself...

[You have undergone the infusion of the primordial energy of heaven and earth, and the tempering of thunder, thus achieving an indestructible and indestructible body.]

[Your physical body is perfected, you possess the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, and you have mastered many supernatural powers, such as carrying mountains and chasing the moon. You possess the ability to split the heavens and cleave the seas.]

[Your cultivation has been successful; your primordial spirit has been refined by thunder and lightning, undergoing seven transformations of the Yang spirit amidst destruction and creation.]

[You can now roam freely in broad daylight, no longer fearing the sunlight, the Great Sun's spiritual flames...]

[You have gained insights into Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, life, divine punishment (thunder)... and many other rules, thus advancing your primordial spirit's supernatural powers.]

[You have achieved an indestructible and indestructible body, and have initially merged with your primordial spirit. You have officially begun the dual cultivation of body and mind, and you have gained initial resistance to spacetime turbulence.]

[System synchronization upgrade complete]

Quietly contemplating the state of being, he seamlessly integrated his primordial spirit with his physical body, leaving no gaps. In the blink of an eye, several dozen days passed, and the familiar power was once again in his grasp.

Su Yuchen opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and the water-like power of lightning entered his mouth. A slight rumble came from his abdomen, and it was quickly digested.

With a wave of his hand, the longsword, refined seven times by lightning, landed in his grasp. The next second, in the blink of an eye, the longsword vanished into nothingness, heading towards his dantian and primordial spirit respectively.

A flash of sword light appeared on his primordial spirit, and the sense of alienation that had arisen from his improved strength and the passage of time was swept away like dust by the glazed sword light; his eyes, which had been lofty and aloof like immortals and indifferent like gods, once again showed human emotions.

"I can only be myself."

High above the heavens, Su Yuchen's primordial spirit reappeared. Using his Yin-Yang and Five Elements supernatural powers, he swept his physical body and swiftly descended, returning to the mortal world with only a faint utterance, accompanied by the fierce winds of the nine heavens.

………………

With a flash of light, Su Yuchen landed in the courtyard. The more difficult and slow it was to get up there, the faster and easier it was now. Looking at the exotic flowers and plants in the courtyard, Su Yuchen couldn't help but marvel at how fast time flies. In the blink of an eye, it was the end of another year.

"Young Master?!"

Early risers Qiuju and Dongmei, still half-asleep, saw figures in the courtyard and couldn't help but cheer with delight.

Su Yuchen turned around, a trace of coldness lingering in his eyes like a cold moon, completely suppressing the cheers of the two. Even so, the cheers still woke Xia Zhu and Zhang Yi, who appeared in the courtyard one after the other like fleeting shadows.

Su Yuchen stood there in an ordinary manner, yet he possessed an aloof and noble air, as if he were a god, unapproachable to mortals.

Looking at Su Yuchen's figure, which seemed so close yet so far away, the group felt a strange sense of unease, realizing that they were now even further away from their young master.

.........

"I'll go inform Madam," Xia Zhu said, turning her head away.

Once Su Yuchen sat back down on the recliner, Aunt Liu, Liu Ruolan, Liu Ye, and another woman filled with curiosity quickly rushed into the courtyard.

P.S.: Thank you everyone for the reminders. I will still be careful. My application was reviewed yesterday, but thankfully it was approved.

Chapter 507 Daily Life After Returning

"I never expected to achieve an indestructible body in this world, but perhaps this is a good thing."

"After that, the primordial spirit will have something to rely on, no longer needing to walk on thin ice, and its dependence on the system will gradually decrease."

"Moreover, this world is rich in spiritual energy, but there is not much karma between immortals and gods. The only thing that needs to be settled is the karma that Aunt Liu gave to this body."

"But she was just a mortal. When she grows old, the karma will naturally dissipate. Now that I think about it, I don't know if it was luck or fate?"

Sitting in the rocking chair, Su Yuchen pondered to himself.

Before long, several footsteps hurried into the courtyard.

………………

As Aunt Liu watched the figure swaying with the rocking chair, his blue robes fluttering in the breeze, making him appear like an immortal, tears welled up in her eyes: "You...you child, where did you go? Why didn't you say a word?"

Su Yuchen stood up, showing her the respect due to her body, a consequence of the karma he had accumulated. But his voice, still cold and clear, remained unchanged throughout his cultivation: "I've gained some insights into cultivation, which has worried Mother."

Looking at the figure standing under the eaves, solitary and aloof, as if not of this mortal realm, everyone felt an invisible distance. It wasn't a distance in attitude, but rather a difference in the essence of life, bringing about a 'separation between the immortal and the mortal'.

“You…” Aunt Liu looked at Su Yuchen, her lips trembling, not knowing what to say. In a daze, it seemed that her son from when she was a child could only appear in her dreams.

His gaze swept over Aunt Liu's lower abdomen, and a hint of kindness and joy appeared in Su Yuchen's usually cold eyes: "Mother is pregnant! Good, good, good!"

Aunt Liu is more than three months pregnant.

The arrival of this child will repay part of your karmic debts. You can leave behind a legacy for him to settle your karmic debts.

Sensing the joy and goodwill in Su Yuchen's eyes, Aunt Liu's previously uneasy mood relaxed.

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to serve my parents in the future. I’ll only be happy to have this child take care of them in my place,” Su Yuchen comforted him.

"You...you're leaving again?" Aunt Liu asked in surprise.

Su Yuchen smiled and said meaningfully, "Mother will know in the future."

Su Yuchen waved his hand, and Qiu Ju and the others realized what was happening and quickly brought out stools for them to sit down.

………………

After everyone was seated, Liu Ye looked at his younger brother and felt a strange mix of emotions.

“Father has gone to court and has official business to attend to, so I’m afraid he won’t be back for a while. But I’ve already sent Teng Zijing to the Ministry of Revenue to inform them, so I’m sure Father already knows by now.”

“When we got married, you had already disappeared into seclusion. This is your sister-in-law, whom you haven’t met yet.”

"Fortunately, you don't appear often anyway. At your wedding, we told you that you met a miracle doctor and went to heal your body. After that, whenever you appear and people see you walking normally, they will naturally believe it."

Su Yuchen nodded to the woman with a curious expression, but did not call her "sister-in-law".

Liu Ye didn't seem to mind and continued speaking:

"Not long after you left, we also went on vacation to the mountains, to the hot springs at the resort..."

"Not long after returning to the capital, it was the annual spring imperial examination again, and by sheer coincidence, I took on a few students..."

"Once the major cheating scandal broke out that day, my position as a senior prosecutor in the procuratorate could no longer be concealed..."

"Because of Han Bingyun's matter, and other things, I went on a mission to the Northern Barbarians, where I met a very interesting village girl..."

"I never imagined that the Holy Maiden of the Northern Barbarians, with her chrysanthemum-like beauty, would be a village girl. When Ruoruo, your sister-in-law, and I told them, they were somewhat skeptical..."

"You probably wouldn't believe it, but the Grand Preceptor of Northern Qi, Ku Zhu, is bald. Once you see him, he's no longer a mystery..."

"The 'Plum Blossom Hand' you taught me has improved tremendously this time. I have indeed secretly learned a lot from Ye Xue'er and several other disciples like Ku Zhu, and incorporated it into the 'Plum Blossom Hand'..."

"When I was in the Northern Barbarian Lands, I heard that Ruoruo was getting married, and I was very unhappy about it. I thought it would be great if you were in the capital. If Ruoruo didn't want to, who could force her to marry..."

"You probably don't know about this marriage. His Majesty has betrothed her to Zhu Hongcheng, the heir of the Prince of Jia. Tsk... He's alright as a friend, but he's not quite right for marrying Ruoruo. I don't really agree with it..."

Liu Ye rambled on and on, and as he watched Su Yuchen lean back in the recliner, the coldness and aloofness faded considerably, as if he had returned to the time shortly after arriving in Kyoto.

"You've put your heart into this!" Su Yuchen said calmly.

Liu Ye and Liu Ruolan smiled at each other. Liu Ye said, "We are family. It's not good to be too distant. Although I don't know what level you've reached in your cultivation, I still hope you can feel the care of your family."

Su Yuchen smiled, neither confirming nor denying. Instead, he praised, "I didn't expect that you, newly married, would not have neglected your cultivation. You've reached the upper ninth rank, not bad."

With the "Indestructible Body" and the Vitality Pill you provided, Liu Ye forcefully controlled his domineering true energy to cleanse and strengthen his internal organs.

After the initial period of adjustment, the domineering true energy within the body became more integrated with the physical form, and the true energy gradually permeated the meridians and merged with the body.

Liu Ye has a preliminary idea for the next step of the nameless martial arts technique, but unfortunately lacks guidance on the technique itself.

Glancing at the narration, and thinking about the cause and effect between the Liu family and this body, Su Yuchen was still willing to say more: "Someone should have told you that your cultivation technique is divided into two parts, the upper part is called 'Overlord'."

Liu Ye nodded, knowing he was referring to the prophet.

Su Yuchen continued:

"This cultivation method is actually quite interesting."

"It uses the human spine as its foundation, imitating the concept of a dragon ascending to heaven, intending to accumulate a vast amount of true energy, and then use this energy to break through the constraints of the meridians, making the body as unified as one."

"Once the true qi merges with the body, the true qi and the body become inseparable, there is no longer any difference in the amount of true qi, and there is no need to worry about the meridians not being able to withstand it."

Liu Ye said thoughtfully, "So, the original intention of this technique was actually to blow up the meridians in the body? To turn streams into lakes, to store true energy in the body, and to make the distinction between self and other?"

Su Yuchen nodded and said:

"Yes. That's why the first part is called 'Overlord,' which depicts a brutal and vicious path of death followed by rebirth."

"Moreover, doing this has another benefit. It allows you to experience the tribulations of life and death amidst the destruction and death of indiscriminate internal energy."

"If you can get through this, you may become a Grandmaster; if you can't, you will die and your life will end."

Seeing Liu Ye's thoughtful expression and the worried looks in the eyes of the others, Su Yuchen said:

"After passing through the life-and-death tribulation with this technique, the body and true qi will no longer be separated, and one will initially enter the Grandmaster realm."

"The second half of the technique is called 'The King's Way,' which guides you to integrate your will, or rather your heart, with your true qi and body, so that the lake of true qi within your body can be driven at will and go anywhere."

"But I'm giving you a better option now, and you should realize that."

Liu Ye nodded, understanding the purpose of "The Unbreakable Body":

"So the 'Indestructible Body' you gave me transforms the viciousness of domineering true qi into a slow release, which ultimately breaks through the meridians and unites the true qi with the body."

“The old cultivation methods were like a fully grown ferocious beast, which could only be left to rampage. But now, it’s like raising a ferocious beast from its cubs. Although it is still extremely fierce after it grows up, it is already very obedient and has become one with the tamer.”

“That makes sense.” Su Yuchen smiled and said, “If you had started cultivating the Indestructible Body from a young age, you wouldn’t have suffered so much.”

Having said that, while Liu Ye pondered for a moment, he changed the subject and asked, "Does Ruoruo want to get married?"

Chapter 508 Night Battle

Seeing Liu Ruolan's stunned expression, Su Yuchen smiled and said:

“Our family is not without the means to resist. I will be going to Qingtian after the New Year. If you are not willing to accept this marriage, you can come with me from the capital.”

"Speaking of which, apart from the few years you spent in Aota, you grew up in Kyoto. Unfortunately, I was too busy taking care of myself in the past few years and didn't have time to look after you."

Liu Ruolan smiled, wanting to say that she was the older sister, and that her younger brother was too cold and not close to anyone.

Su Yuchen waved, and Xia Zhu nodded. She disappeared in a flash and reappeared holding a thin book.

Seeing Liu Ruolan's thoughtful expression, as if she had guessed something, Su Yuchen said:

“I have spent my whole life on the path of spiritual practice, and I have nothing to give you.”

"This cultivation method is the result of my numerous revisions and compilations. It can lead directly to the realm beyond Grandmaster. Consider it a gift from me to you."

"At your current age, if you study and practice diligently, you may well become a grandmaster before the age of thirty."

[You taught me the "Nine Yin Manual of the Vast Cold Mountain" (Revised Edition)]

[This scripture has been optimized by you to suit the environment of this world where the Taiyin spiritual energy is abundant. It cultivates the Taiyin Guanghan Body externally and the Taiyin True Qi internally. The spirit merges with the Taiyin star, and one comprehends the Taiyin Dao.]

[Liu Ruolan later obtained an opportunity at Mount Dadong, comprehended the Dao of Refining the Spirit, broke through to the Grandmaster level, and grasped the secrets of shattering the void.]

Su Yuchen glanced at the narration and nodded.

Apart from Liu Ye, who seemed to be deep in thought, Aunt Liu and Li Ying'er looked curiously at the book in Liu Ruolan's hand. Liu Ruolan smiled slightly, and after opening it, the group was stunned to find that the book was completely blank.

The next second, a layer of crystal-clear, jade-like cold air flickered slightly, but no one except Liu Ruolan noticed it.

………………

Letting Liu Ruolan browse through the books, Su Yuchen looked at Liu Ye and smiled, "Have you figured it out?"
