Chapter 118: Five Qi Converge at the Origin

Cultivation?

Li Heng raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing on his face.

"This *Three Flowers Record* is indeed special, but let me take a look and use it for reference; it's fine as a supplementary cultivation technique, but as a primary one, there's no need."

He cultivated the *Taiyuan Scripture*, which was more in line with his own path.

It was fine for him to incorporate the concept of the Essence Qi Spirit Three Flowers from the *Three Flowers Record* into the *Taiyuan Scripture*, but to do the reverse—abandoning the *Taiyuan Scripture* to practice the *Three Flowers Record*—would be putting the cart before the horse.

Abandoning one's own path for the sake of temporary power?

Not advisable!

Meng Lingyun was startled. Just for reference?

"Kid, do you know what level of technique this is? It points directly to the Innate Level! It is even extremely special among the Innate level. It's hard enough for someone at your realm to even understand it, and you actually want to use it for reference?"

He looked at Li Heng with a strange expression. Wasn't this being overly ambitious?

"It's no matter." Li Heng's expression remained calm.

He had the Visualization Divine Ability and the Data Panel; he could completely master the *Three Flowers Record* quickly. If he were willing, he could even fuse it with the *Taiyuan Scripture*.

"Are you sure?" He stared at Li Heng with a solemn expression.

Li Heng nodded.

Seeing Li Heng's firm stance, Meng Lingyun was silent for a moment, then revealed a look of emotion and sighed.

"It seems your talent is truly heaven-defying. You can even use this kind of Innate-level special technique for reference? I've lived for more than half a lifetime, and this is the first time I've been hit this hard by a kid like you."

He smiled bitterly and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Forget it, forget it. Take this *Three Flowers Record* then. I have already received the inheritance once; I have long since memorized the contents, and I don't need this thing anymore."

Meng Lingyun tapped on the *Three Flowers Record*, and a pale blue film of Original Qi instantly wrapped around the entire book.

"The remaining spiritual intent in this book can only be inherited one last time; you must be careful and cautious. Only after you have made up your mind should you undo the Original Qi film to prevent the spiritual intent from dissipating."

He instructed Li Heng with a serious expression.

This book had consumed most of his life, leaving him stuck at the peak of the True Qi Realm, unable to advance an inch. Now that Ma Suxuan had brought him some things, the critical bottleneck had loosened slightly.

He no longer needed it himself, so he might as well give it away.

Out of sight, out of mind.

He handed the *Three Flowers Record* to Li Heng, a flash of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he could see his own high-spirited days and grand ambitions from back then in this book.

Li Heng smiled and took the *Three Flowers Record*.

"Old man, why are you being so sentimental?"

"The Qi and Blood hidden within you is quite vigorous, no worse than a young person's. I estimate it won't be long before you break through to the Innate level and have a bright future ahead; why take such an attitude?"

Meng Lingyun was stunned upon hearing this and couldn't help but shake his head.

Well, he had been lectured by a young man.

"You are right. We martial artists fight against heaven for our lives; why be so sentimental?" He nodded, his state of mind seeming to become increasingly young and active, and the dormant Qi and Blood in his body began to stir. Even some wrinkles began to slowly disappear, as if he were regressing in age back to middle age.

"Congratulations to you, old man, for your progress." Li Heng smiled faintly.

Sometimes, a breakthrough in realm is just like this: it looks close at hand, yet is a thousand miles away, sought but unattainable; but once the state of mind undergoes a transformation, one can advance a thousand miles in a day.

This is true for both cultivation and doing things.

"Alright, let me talk about some serious business."

"If you practice the *Three Flowers Record*, or use its concepts for reference, I hope you won't tell that kid Meng Hao. You know his personality; he is very stubborn."

His eyes were bright as he instructed Li Heng.

"I will try my best regarding that."

"Mm, trying your best is enough; I won't force you."

Meng Lingyun nodded.

"Let's go. There is still a pile of trouble to deal with, so I won't waste your time." He left the fourth floor with a vigorous, dragon-like stride, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit becoming more vigorous with every step.

Li Heng followed closely behind. He looked at the somewhat imposing Meng Lingyun and his expression turned strange. If the old man puts on such airs, will he get a beating after seeing Aunt Xuan?

The two arrived at the first floor.

At this time, the librarian Wang Fugui was sitting on a grand armchair, thinking quietly, wondering if he should build a good relationship with that young man? This seemed to be a peerless backer.

Seeing the two come downstairs, he stood up with a start and hurriedly offered greetings. If there were tea and water here, given his respectful attitude, he would have been serving them tea and water.

"Do not tell anyone else about what happened today."

Meng Lingyun warned this fat man.

"Yes, Division Chief, I will absolutely not let anyone else know about this!" Hearing this, the fat man immediately stood straight, revealing a semi-elliptical arc, and promised with a respectful expression.

Meng Lingyun nodded and left directly with Li Heng.

After the two parted ways, Li Heng returned to his residence. He sat on the bed and took out the *Three Flowers Record*, not rushing to undo the Original Qi film to open it.

He pulled up the Data Panel and performed an Appraisal directly.

Regardless of what it was, he would appraise it first. Although cultivating the Essence Qi Spirit Three Flowers seemed orthodox, he still had to keep his guard up; if this technique was meant to be a trap, that would be bad.

【Three Flowers Record: A technique for cultivating the human body's Essence, Qi, and Spirit. It can condense Essence, Qi, and Spirit into Three Flowers, also known as Three Brilliances. Three Flowers Gather at the Crown means Essence, Qi, and Spirit are unified and gathered at the mysterious aperture, advancing to the Innate level. Origin: From the *Golden Core Collection*, one of the Three Thousand Dao Treasury, missing the Five Qi Converge at the Origin section. Flaw 1: Cultivating the Essence Qi Spirit Three Flowers may take too long. Flaw 2: Cultivating this method will lead to a foundation that is too deep and too strong, making it very difficult to break through to the next realm.】

Looking at the information that appeared, Li Heng was thoughtful. No wonder the old man hadn't broken through to the Innate level after practicing this technique for so long; it turned out it was because his foundation was too deep and strong, and it took too long?

So this was a technique for geniuses.

However, this *Three Flowers Record* was actually related to the Three Thousand Dao Treasury, just like the *Pure Yang Soul Secret Art*. It seemed his connection with Daoism was very deep.

Three Flowers Gather at the Crown, Five Qi Converge at the Origin...

Li Heng pondered this concept and had some guesses.

According to what the old man said, an Innate achieved through Three Flowers Gather at the Crown was qualified to glimpse the so-called "Great Innate," so would Three Flowers Gather at the Crown, plus Five Qi Converge at the Origin, guarantee a path to the "Great Innate"?

But how was he to get the Five Qi Converge at the Origin part?

This part is missing...

Although if he were willing to spend Source Power, this Five Qi Towards Origin part could likely be deduced; it wouldn't necessarily be stronger than the original version, but it would definitely not be weak. It's just that he is poor; he only has 1,550 points right now.

An Innate Level cultivation technique requires at least 1,000 Source Power as a baseline.

Not to mention that this is a special technique of the Innate Level.

Li Heng shakes his head; he is not someone who likes to go all-in. If he went all-in with all his Source Power and then discovered that this Five Qi Towards Origin was nothing special, he would have suffered a huge loss.

He can only cultivate Three Flowers Gather at the Crown first, and when he is stronger in the future, he can look for that so-called Golden Core Collection. Or, wait until he has enough Source Power in the future to just deduce it directly.

Having confirmed there was no risk, he intends to undergo the inheritance.

With a movement of his mind, he peels off the Original Qi membrane sealing the book, then opens it... With a boom, Li Heng only sees endless characters surging directly out of the book and into his mind. Subsequently, these characters actually form three flowers in his mind.

The first, with essence and energy as thick as wolf smoke, is the Jing Flower.

The second, with Original Qi as vast as the sea, is the Qi Flower.

The third, with Godly Intent as boundless as a deity, is the Shen Flower.

He has a realization in his heart; is this the inheritance on a spiritual level? His mind gently touches the Jing Flower, and information on cultivating the Jing Flower surges into his mind; touching the Qi Flower and the Shen Flower is the same.

Returning to the level of Reality, he opens the book "Three Flowers Record" again.

Just as he expected, he sees that it is all page after page of blank space. Clearly, just as Meng Lingyun said, the remaining spiritual intent inheritance within it can only be performed once.

He caught it just in time.

His heart calms down, and he ponders slightly.

According to the information revealed, the Three Flowers are profound and extremely difficult to achieve. People of low stupidity, spending a lifetime, cannot achieve even one flower. People of medium stupidity, spending half a lifetime, can only achieve one flower. People of high stupidity, spending half a lifetime, can only achieve two flowers.

Only a heaven-sent genius, having an affinity with the Dao, can achieve the Three Flowers.

Li Heng has a clear self-awareness in his heart.

The so-called heaven-sent genius has no connection to him. With his own natural talent, he can only find his place among the vast masses of the low-stupid, medium-stupid, and high-stupid.

Therefore, he intends to use a cheat.

Relying on his own efforts, he brings up the Data Panel, finds the option for the Three Flowers Record, clicks the plus sign behind it, and directly performs a quick entry.

With a boom, he only feels the Qi and Blood in his body begin to riot, then, following the information recorded in the Three Flowers Record, it circulates through his whole body along a very profound trajectory.

With the circulation of Qi and Blood, his own essence and energy gradually become thick. Finally, in the mysterious and obscure vital point, a prototype of the Jing Flower condenses. The Data Panel's quick entry ends accordingly.

Li Heng comes back to his senses and spits out a breath of turbid air.

The turbid air is powerful, directly traveling a distance of five or six meters and striking straight onto a wooden door, piercing through it instantly, allowing Li Heng to see the scenery outside the courtyard—spitting air like an arrow!

And this is only the achievement of the Jing Flower prototype.

Li Heng is surprised.

If he had achieved the Qi Flower prototype, would the exhaled air turn into a hundred-pace flying sword, killing invisibly?

He uses the deduction function again, wanting to deduce this Three Flowers Record from the entry stage to the True Qi Realm. At this moment, a warning sign faintly arises in his heart, seemingly warning him not to do so.

Li Heng frowns, senses slightly, and is suddenly stunned.

Good heavens, it turns out his own Qi and Blood are insufficient?

The deduction function consumes one's own Qi and Blood. It seems this Three Flowers Record is of too high a grade and too special; if he were to force a deduction without sufficient Qi and Blood, he would only end up with dried-up Qi and Blood and die suddenly.

It seems further deduction will have to wait until he reaches the True Qi Realm.

He clicks his tongue; his Qi and Blood, even as a Great Sun Spirit Body, are not enough? This Three Flowers Record is also strangely Terror-inducing. However, the time for him to advance to the True Qi Realm is not far off.

Carefully estimating, it will be tomorrow night.

It is precisely the time to head to Wan Shou Ling to exterminate demons and kill ghosts!
