sees that his feet are already cracked, as if they could shatter into pieces at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his inner vision, it’s clear that his feet have been split open by the violent force, and they could fracture at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly changes his stance, forming a seal with his hands once more, while visualizing the Divine Language, quietly reciting it, and then a golden net appears in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden net swiftly contracts, wrapping around his feet, stabilizing the violent force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly stands up, letting out a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least the violent force is stopped for now, allowing him to begin healing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He takes out a Strange Flower—Evil Relief Flower—from his Storage Bracelet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting down heavily on a nearby ice block, he removes his boots with one hand, revealing his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His feet almost lost sensation, immune to the cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the golden net sealed the violent force, it also sealed his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Evil Relief Flower resembles a chrysanthemum, entirely pink, and after crushing it, he drips its juice onto his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pale pink juice falls onto his feet, instantly seeping into the skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original cracks rapidly produce pink flesh buds visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Zhiyuan smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Evil Relief Flower doesn’t enhance cultivation, but is indeed a miraculous healing medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially for surface wounds, it works wonders, though less effective for internal injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After using two Evil Relief Flowers, the cracks on his feet have disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tries to look up at the statue of the lean middle-aged man before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a ten-meter-high statue, looking up makes it seem imposing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, under Super Sensing Illumination, it feels less imposing, rather ethereal, as if it might ride the wind away from this turbid world at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Super Sense, he would only be able to observe with his eyes and wouldn’t see as clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, much of the statue’s subtle movements and expressions are invisible without it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Insight, his posture mirrors exactly, attracting violent power instantaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strange posture proves its might, but unfortunately, he couldn’t grasp its essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this similar to the Body Refinement Realm he practises?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn’t seem like it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this lean middle-aged man gives no impression of a powerful physique, but rather an ethereal unity with the heavens and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong physique often opposes the world, clashing against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This lean middle-aged man is not resisting the world, but merging with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He puts on his boots, and with a thought, his figure appears on the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surroundings are unchanged from his earlier entry, empty except for the green table in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With another thought, the White Jade Gate appears again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He staggeringly steps inside, still faced with the immaculate peak and the middle-aged man’s statue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thought again, he withdraws from the peak, appearing back on the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he realizes this Divine Language connects to that peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That peak could be a Small Cave Heaven like Great Bright Peak, albeit a fragmented one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is a form of inheritance, but his current self can’t yet withstand the violent force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will he be able to practice this cultivation technique once he reaches a certain level?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is not satisfied, thinking it shouldn’t be that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he retrieves a Yellow Yuan Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After consuming a Yellow Yuan Fruit, he feels his legs and feet recover faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strangely, he observes with Super Sense that the violent force in his legs and feet is rapidly dissipating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden net of the Great Demon Suppressing Seal merely bound it, failing to annihilate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it swiftly extinguishes once leaving that Cave Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiles suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this, the injuries on his feet can quickly heal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like snow meeting boiling water, the violent force dissolves swiftly, ultimately vanishing completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the violent force disappears, he retracts the power of the Great Demon Suppressing Seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The injuries on his feet are rapidly healing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While his feet are recovering, he starts Insight on the entire hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now looking upstairs at the four Divine Languages, he feels no danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six Divine Languages downstairs gather power from all directions, concealing this building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Languages are profound, not directly corresponding with his current texts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single Divine Language can correspond to hundreds or even thousands of words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, a Divine Language doesn’t match his texts at all, understood only by sense, not verbalized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The profound nature of Divine Languages allows combination, disassembly, and infinite transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single Divine Language may merge with several others, creating a new Divine Language unrelated in meaning to the original.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he studies, the more he perceives unending mysteries, likely never fully grasping Divine Languages in a lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could even create new Divine Languages himself, infinitely expanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time slowly passes, he glances at his feet, now largely healed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He forms a seal with his hands, his body slightly bent, resuming the lean middle-aged man’s posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mouth assumes the correct shape as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, a peculiar force descends from the sky, settling on his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like feathers caressing his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maintaining his posture unchanged, he involuntarily utters a series of Divine Languages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Divine Languages are voiced, the feathers caressing his feet transform into fine needles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like countless fine needles pricking his feet, an intangible force emerges from the earth, drilling into his Yongquan, flooding into his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He feels as though walking on a mountain of needles, experiencing pain, numbness, and itchiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disregarding the strange sensations, keeping the lean middle-aged man’s posture intact in his mind, unmoving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time slowly progresses, feeling like an eternity, yet he resists the urge to give up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constantly sensing, ever waiting to see what unfolds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gradually drifts, as if transforming into the lean middle-aged man, standing atop the Spiritual Abyss, practicing the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly awakening, a smile emerges on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record, the very cultivation technique he’s practicing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a Divine Race cultivation technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Divine Race cultivation technique, it’s a Miracle Technique of the Divine Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that lean middle-aged man is a master of the Divine Race, the original creator of this technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The location of that peak is the Spiritual Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The posture of the lean middle-aged man is merely the First Form of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In total, nine forms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Corresponding to the nine peaks of the Spiritual Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First Form perfection completed, one can advance to the Second Form, the Spiritual Abyss Second Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record refines the body into a Spiritual Body, unlike the Spiritual Body imagined by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Race’s body naturally is the imagined Spiritual Body, pathways are unobstructed, any martial arts learned instantly, mastered quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, the Spiritual Body formed by the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record exceeds all that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Achieving the Heavenly God aspired by the Divine Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Zhiyuan contemplates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of the Spiritual Abyss is too dominating for him to endure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should he abandon practicing the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heavenly Persons of Heavenly Person Peak practice the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People ridicule the Heavenly Persons as misguided, trying postnatal cultivation to approach the Divine Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unaware of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record’s existence, otherwise, they would understand the Heavenly Persons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He steps out of the hut, leaving the bamboo grove, arriving at the mountain top, in front of another hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This hut is marked with a Divine Language, and he shakes his head after looking, while simultaneously observing other huts, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Languages outside these huts denote phantasmal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indicating they are illusions, all false.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, one would experience a dreamlike teaching, believing they have received instruction, but the teachings are entirely false cultivation techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>",1334,"2026-06-03T09:58:19.351Z","2026-06-03T09:58:26.265Z",1,"novelbin.me","bcf9091df145d03986bcc5e2e443af47ef63cc22a00f837acdc768dffe3e487a","imperial-cultivation-chapter-658","imperial-cultivation-chapter-656",1378,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimperial-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
