I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly
Chapter 122: Chapter 96: Leaping Through the Dragon Gate, Burying the Old Self, Celestial Being Limit, Turning with the Heart, Black Heaven Blade·Whirlwind Thunder (4K)_2

"Yes," Xue Jing nodded.

Wu Youqing hummed in response and continued, "To forcibly influence the body and reshape genes with the power of the spirit and mind is, in itself, a breakthrough of the limits between humanity and Celestials, which is — to interfere with reality using the mental power."

Xue Jing frowned and said, "Mental power can interfere with reality? I thought that the kind of mental power needed for Leaping Through the Dragon Gate was just another term for willpower, barely still within the scope of science... But if it's about using mental power to interfere with reality, then that's completely unscientific."

Wu Youqing shook her head and said, "There's no such thing as scientific or unscientific. Science is a method for summarizing the laws of things... Theoretically, existence means reasonableness, and reasonableness means science. Mental power interfering with reality is also a part of science."

"And this kind of mental power that interferes with reality sounds incredible, but the effect is actually limited, it can only be used in some aspects related to oneself..."

"Some powerful Martial Artists can use some unbelievable moves, such as delivering a punch that theoretically should be impossible with their physical condition, piercing through strong alloy armor, smashing a tank..."

"This is actually because their spiritual power is too firm, which interferes with their own reality."

Hearing this from Wu Youqing, Xue Jing was struck with a thought.

He remembered his own 'Heavenly Sabre · Whirlwind Thunder'... The saber qi that swept out far and wide was completely inexplicable with pure physics.

Could it be that it was because he used the artistic conception of the Heaven's Will Saber that he interfered with his own reality?

"All in all, mental power is more important to a Martial Artist than you think," Wu Youqing softly stated.

"Breaking the physical limit is called Leaping Through the Dragon Gate, while breaking the mental limit is called 'Turning Celestial'."

"Only the powerful mental power that can twist the Celestial Being Limit and rewrite one's reality is the absolute foundation for reaching the pinnacle of martial arts."

"Therefore, I suggest that you use Hundred Feet Pole's Top on talents related to mental capabilities."

Xue Jing nodded earnestly.

"I understand now."

Having said that, he couldn't help but express, "Big sister, you're like an all-knowing encyclopedia; it seems you know everything..."

This discussion about mental power interfering with one's reality was likely cutting-edge theory circulated among only a small group of people. Even his master, Li Qi, probably had only a superficial understanding of it.

How does she know everything?

Thinking back from the moment he met her, starting from the first sentence he asked her about the Divine Relic, it seemed there wasn't a question she couldn't answer.

"I don't know everything, just what you want to know," Wu Youqing casually replied.

...

After leaving the library, Xue Jing was digesting the fruits of his conversation with Wu Youqing.

"Using mental power to twist the Celestial Being Limit, and rewrite one's own reality..."

"This path of martial practice is becoming more and more fantastical... but there's also a subtly scientific feeling to it," he mused.

Xue Jing shook his head, took out his phone, and made a call to Void Blade.

He had hardly dialed when the other side picked up immediately without even a ring.

"Hello, have you decided?" came the direct inquiry from Void Blade.

Xue Jing put the phone to his ear, hummed affirmatively, and said, "I've decided, I'll take up this commission."

"...That's good," a relieved sigh came from Void Blade on the other end.

"I'll have them send over the Hundred Feet Pole's Top right away, it should arrive by tomorrow."

Xue Jing nodded, "All right... Oh, and I have another condition."

Void Blade asked, "What is it?"

Xue Jing thought for a moment, "I need to sign a contract with you."

"If I die within the Intersecting Boundaries, you must replace my body within seven days and send it back to Qingcheng."

Void Blade sounded puzzled, "Why?"

Xue Jing replied irritably, "Ever heard of the seventh day wake? Don't you know?"

"Uh, alright, I don't really understand, but I'll let them know," Void Blade conceded.

After hanging up, Xue Jing pinched his chin, opened his panel, and glanced at the passive effects of Twin Lifes.

[Possessing two lives, after death, one can freely choose the time to resurrect within seven days, with a cooldown of seventy days]

This was his last line of defense. If he truly died within the Intersecting Boundaries, as long as White Crow could get his body back within seven days, he would naturally be able to resurrect in the external world, with no fear of body guarding.

As for what to do if the matter of my resurrection gets exposed... if things have already gone that far, then let it be exposed, what else can I do.

This world is very strange; there are as many reasons as one might need… Divine Relic, Blessed One and such, at the end of the day, it's all possible to muddle through.

"In order to prevent White Crow from signing the contract without fulfilling it, I still need to borrow the boss's influence..."

Thinking over the situation, Xue Jing took out his GOD-1280 from his pocket, put it on, and in an instant, transformed into an inconspicuous passerby like a rock. He then walked out of the school gate and hailed a taxi.

First, he went home to retrieve his Crouching Rabbit Sword, then he took a ride to Zhu Shanying's family estate.

Upon entering the main residence of the estate, a maid dressed in a classical maid's long dress, who was cleaning the floor, was startled when she saw Xue Jing with glasses. After a moment, she hesitated and said:

"Xue?"

Xue Jing nodded at her, pushed his glasses with his finger, and said with a smile:

"Is Sister Zhu around?"

The maid bowed slightly to Xue Jing and respectfully said:

"The young miss went out this morning... She instructed that if she saw you, Mr. Xue, to tell you to please make yourself at home."

"I see." Xue Jing nodded.

Without asking further, he left the main residence and headed to the stables on the left side of the estate.

"Whinny—"

Seemingly having seen Xue Jing's figure, Wind Eater, the black horse in one of the stalls, became somewhat restless, tapping its front hooves on the spot.

The horse breeder Uncle Bao was not there, so Xue Jing entered the stall, stroked Wind Eater's mane with his hand, and said with a smile:

"Good boy."

[A creature has developed favorability towards you, Charm Art experience points +39]

[Charm Art has leveled up to Lv8 (12/6000)]

"Huh?"

Xue Jing looked at the panel.

Although he had never actively "grinded" for the Charm Art skill, it still caught up with [Fitness], becoming one of his highest level skills to date.

His long practice in martial arts had given Xue Jing a strong control over his physical body; he was clearly aware of some subtle changes in his body at this moment.

He furrowed his brows, brought his arm close to his nose, and sniffed it.

"What's this? A scent?"

His mouth twitched slightly, and he was a bit moody.

"Come on, I'm a guy, why give me this?"

"If I level up two more times, wouldn't I become a succubus?"

Xue Jing shivered at the thought.

"Whinny—" Wind Eater approached and rubbed against him a few times.

Xue Jing sighed, took the reins and saddle from the side, and saddled Wind Eater.

Then, stepping into the stirrups, he mounted the horse, grabbed the reins, and with just a thought, Wind Eater began to move its hooves, heading towards the estate's back door and into the North City District's back mountains.

Riding the horse to the lakeside where he had practiced saber the day before, Xue Jing dismounted, patted Wind Eater's rear, and let it graze freely on the distant grassland.

Afterward, Xue Jing walked to the lakeside, took a deep breath, his pupils shifted from black to silver-white, and his expression turned indifferent, as if he were the God of the Azure Sky looking down on all living beings.

He drew the Crouching Rabbit Sword in his hand, its beautiful silver-white blade sparkling with a sharp luster in the sunlight.

"Let's test my current limit..."

Xue Jing murmured as he swung the Crouching Rabbit Sword to the side.

Streams of black vapor emerged from his shadow, winding around the Crouching Rabbit, gradually dyeing the blade from silver-white to pitch black, as if cloaked in a black film, turning it into a black blade.

The Power of Twins, Twin Lifes Defense—

Xue Jing grasped the black Crouching Rabbit Sword with both hands, spiral grooves starting at the shoulders, spreading forwards and backwards, covering the fists and the chest.

"Black Heaven Blade·Whirlwind Thunder!"
