the meridian path within the body was different, and when it finally entered the Dantian, it was naturally repelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were too weak and, after being repelled, could only remain outside the Dantian, continuing to flow endlessly in the meridians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they became stronger, upon entering the Dantian, they were not directly expelled and stayed in the Dantian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the two kinds of True Qi slowly harmonized and produced strange changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Zhiyuan was constantly observing them, watching the changes in the True Qi leading to changes in the meridians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had vaguely grasped the gateway to the Grandmaster path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It should be the path of the Five Elements Perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He speculated that the path to the Great Grandmaster was the path of Essence Qi, while the path to the Grandmaster was the path of the Five Elements Perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the five internal organs reached harmonious balance, the Grandmaster path would appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, there was no concept of the Five Elements; he had borrowed the concept from his previous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because he had this idea, he could quickly apply it, discovering the true mystery of the Grandmaster path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without this concept, people in this world would feel like they were observing flowers in the fog, unclear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Zhiyuan sighed silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was great wisdom, the condensation of thousands of years of wisdom from the previous world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The martial arts in the previous world were far less developed than in this world, but medicine surpassed that of this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, most people practiced martial arts; they were robust, with fewer illnesses, and even if they did get sick, practicing the Healing Heart Method would mostly cure them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the standard of the Imperial Physicians, it was evident how poor it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women’s White Cloud Sword Palace mental method was the same, but each person’s constitution was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some had more fire within, some more water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The White Cloud Sword Palace’s mental method leaned towards the water attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, those with a constitution inclined towards water progressed extraordinarily quickly, but they were stuck at Innate Perfection longer, even unable to breakthrough to Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, those with a fire attribute constitution conflicted with the White Cloud Sword Palace mental method, and their progress was instead slower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they reached Innate Perfection, they were more likely to see the Grandmaster path and step into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their view, this was the unpredictability of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Chu Zhiyuan’s view, it was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, many mental methods mingled during cultivation, unknowingly altering the proportion of the Five Elements in each.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made things even more confusing, unclear what was truly going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too many variables made it impossible to discern the mystery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, they did not have Chu Zhiyuan’s Super Sense and could not observe so clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could see their five internal organs, all their Qi circulation, and their subtle changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was only speculating now and needed verification, which could be done on the two women and more disciples of the Four Great Sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If proven correct, then the Grandmaster experts of the Da Jing Court would increase explosively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More would emerge in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grandmaster path would no longer be a threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could also penetrate the Great Grandmaster path, it would completely open the gate of cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, would Great Grandmasters be everywhere?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, he shook his head with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Great Grandmaster path was not so easy to comprehend, as it involved the spirit and soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Super Sense could not yet observe the soul and spirit; it was unknown if it could after stepping into the Great Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women practiced for an hour in the Martial Arts Hall, and Chu Zhiyuan found no problems, so he let them leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both women had exceptional talent, progressing very quickly in their cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combined with the simple and easy mental method taught by Chu Zhiyuan, they were already entering the threshold within an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, it depended on the skill of harmonization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reappeared the next afternoon, Chu Zhiyuan gave them another set of mental methods, specifying the sequence and duration of their practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each was given two kinds of mental methods, specifying how long to practice the first set before moving to the second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original White Cloud Sword Palace mental method was not to be practiced, not even for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This puzzled them, but thinking of Chu Zhiyuan’s past, they gritted their teeth and agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if delayed after reaching Innate Perfection, as long as not too long, it was not a significant problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the third day, Chu Zhiyuan gave them another set of mental methods, again specifying the order and duration of practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the tenth day, they saw the path to Grandmaster and directly entered seclusion in the Martial Arts Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the morning of the eleventh day, amidst two long whistles, the two almost simultaneously stepped into the Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In eleven days, they progressed from Innate Perfection to Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made them the youngest two Grandmasters of the White Cloud Sword Palace, following Huang Shiron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news of the two stepping into the Grandmaster shocked the entire Four Great Sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the first Princely Heir of Da Jing, Chu Zhiyuan had already garnered people’s attention, with everyone closely watching his every move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The news of him opening a Martial Arts Hall had spread, but the experts of the Four Great Sects and Military Suppression Department remained unmoved because the two women were before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to see the results first before making a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they were not idlers, each having their own responsibilities, not wasting efforts in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rapid progress of Wen Qianqian and Xu Mengyu shocked the Four Great Sects and Military Suppression Department greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They never expected it to be so fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being stuck in Innate Perfection for several years was normal, sometimes a lifetime, with Huang Shiron being an anomaly and Chu Zhiyuan an anomaly among anomalies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women, not considered the top talents in the White Cloud Sword Palace, stepped into the Grandmaster in just ten days, exceeding imagination in speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were one person, it might have been luck; the two did not reach Innate Perfection simultaneously; Xu Mengyu’s talent was slightly better, Wen Qianqian slightly inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, both reaching Grandmaster simultaneously indicated that as long as they were at Innate Perfection, talent was not crucial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This proved that Chu Zhiyuan indeed grasped the key to allowing Innate Perfection to step into the Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the most astonishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, the Martial Arts Hall was overflowing with people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Martial Arts Hall had a number limit, with each batch only accommodating ten people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These ten spots were divided: Four Great Sects took four, and the remaining six were taken by Military Suppression Department experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ten days, all ten Innate Perfections stepped into Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shock caused was even greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite trying hard to suppress the spread of information, discussion was rampant within the Military Suppression Department and the Four Great Sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For those who had already stepped into Grandmaster, it was a mix of feelings, indescribable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps envy, perhaps dissatisfaction, perhaps helplessness, but emotions were complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an easy entry into Grandmaster made the years of being stuck at Innate Perfection, the effort, and suffering to find the Grandmaster path seem pointless, a pure waste of time and energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also felt envy and jealousy for the later experts, wishing time could reverse, so they wouldn’t have to go through so much hardship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some believed that although this method allowed for faster entry into Grandmaster, reaching Great Grandmaster might be more difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the grinding before Innate Perfection into Grandmaster, it would be even harder to reach Great Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for countless cultivators, they had no extravagant hopes of becoming a Great Grandmaster; becoming a Grandmaster was already satisfactory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pursuing the Great Grandmaster realm while in the Grandmaster realm was better than pursuing the Great Grandmaster from the Innate realm.\u003C\u002Fp>",1439,"2026-06-03T09:57:58.105Z","2026-06-14T10:33:19.054Z",1,"novelbin.me","e290a6b1e5ebed9a4989d62d99fa307c86359c70ccbad68ae40d6c9f97b1baaa","imperial-cultivation-chapter-293","imperial-cultivation-chapter-291",1378,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimperial-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
