Chapter 567: Chapter 345: The Immensity of Heaven and Earth_2 Chapter 567: Chapter 345: The Immensity of Heaven and Earth_2 After all, if even Heaven and Earth could be defied, that would not be the work of a martial artist, but of gods and buddhas.
“Hmm, as martial artists, we practice from Skin Toughening to Body Refinement, up to this Blood Exchange Realm, it is merely a continuous pursuit of the essence of Heaven and Earth.
To reach the Unity of Heaven and Man is merely to understand a part of the essence of Heaven and Earth, allowing oneself to blend into it, like a fish in the water, always going with the flow, unable to truly leap out of the water.”
Qin Mengjun turned her head towards the towering sky and couldn’t help but sigh lightly, saying, “After I comprehended the Qian Heaven Domain, I pursued the high heavens, but at that time I could only ascend four thousand feet.
Later, after cultivating a Martial Body, I ascended nine thousand feet, still unable to see the end.”
“Not long ago, I tried to probe the heights of the sky again, but after reaching sixteen thousand feet, I couldn’t go higher.
There, the wind was fierce, and higher up, everywhere there were fractures of Heaven and Earth, a barrier even Unity of Heaven and Man could not cross.”
Upon hearing Qin Mengjun’s words,
Chen Mu also couldn’t help but look up at the sky, gazing towards the end of the heaven.
As a visitor, his curiosity about this world was actually much stronger than that of Qin Mengjun and others, but as his cultivation in martial arts was still weak, he had no interest in exploring these ‘profound mysteries of Heaven and Earth.’
After all, the very existence of this world, much of it already contradicted his knowledge, such as one detail, he did not know whether ‘Heaven is round’, but this land was likely ‘square’, extremely flat.
Theoretically, if there is an extremely large flat land, it should have an end, but he had never seen any record of an ‘end’ in any classics, including not knowing how high the sky is or how thick the earth is.
Now,
although his realm had not yet reached the final step of Blood Exchange, his level of strength had already reached this layer, and the curiosity he had suppressed in his heart in the past had indeed risen.

It was not entirely curiosity, but if he could know these things, comprehend the true full appearance of this world, then his insight into ‘Qiankun’ would also be greatly elevated, perhaps stepping into the third stage without relying on the system panel!
However,
even Qin Mengjun could only ascend to sixteen thousand feet, speaking of the upper part as having ice-like fine white cracks, so he today could not surpass it either.
After all, those white cracks, which he and Qin Mengjun could only burst forth a thread at a time when they went all out, if the entire area were such cracks, it is unimaginable how terrifying it would be, indeed, even a sanctified being of Unity of Heaven and Man would not be able to cross it.
“Sixteen thousand feet, huh.”
Chen Mu muttered to himself, and then cast his gaze downward, saying, “Yet I wonder how thick the earth is, it seems that the Earthly Abyss is only about a thousand feet below the ground.”
Ordinary Grandmasters could only move about a hundred feet below the ground.
The top Grandmasters who cultivated the Kun Earth lineage could go as deep as three hundred feet.
Blood Exchange Realm practitioners could reach a depth of five or six hundred feet at most, and entry into the Earthly Abyss was only possible during special periods.
As for what lies below the Earthly Abyss, it remains a mystery, unknown to anyone.
“Perhaps in the future, you will have the capacity to explore thoroughly.”
Qin Mengjun also cast her gaze towards the foot of the Spirit Profound Peak, her eyes reflecting complex emotions, suddenly speaking softly.
The future Chen Mu might scale peaks in martial arts never before reached, surpassing the Martial Emperor who founded the Da Xuan Imperial Court.
By then, what he could see would surely go further than anyone else; perhaps he would be able to glimpse the limits of the world.
“It’s still too far away.”
Chen Mu, hearing the words of Qin Mengjun, shook his head slightly.
As of now, he had only just begun to enter the level of Blood Exchange Realm, slightly inferior to figures like Yin Heng.
To reach the state where he could command the wind and cloud, where a single decree would be obeyed by all under heaven, there was still a distance to go.
As Chen Mu’s thoughts drifted, suddenly his gaze shifted sharply, turning towards the great hall at the summit of Spirit Profound Peak, Qin Mengjun too paused for a moment, both looking in that direction.
“This is…”
Chen Mu’s eyes flickered slightly, and after confirming clearly, he finally smiled slightly, saying, “It seems that perseverance pays off, Brother Chu has finally crossed that door.”
“Martial arts, beyond the first two realms, each step is a struggle, with Marrow Cleansing and Blood Exchange being the most difficult challenges.
One needs not just strong bones, aptitude, will, and character, but also sufficient fortune to reach this point.”
Qin Mengjun also stared in the direction of the great hall, her eyes revealing a trace of emotion.
Chu Jingsui, who had returned from Lang Prefecture and secluded himself in Spirit Profound Peak for over half a year, had finally burst through the Mysterious Pass, stepping into the Marrow Cleansing Realm, thereafter also becoming a Grandmaster!
Chu Jingsui was her first true disciple, and she had seen all the hardships he had gone through.
To finally break through the Mysterious Pass, the effort and toil he had put in was indeed beyond what ordinary people could accomplish; any Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster had paid an untold amount of blood and sweat.
Now, as she stepped into the Blood Exchange Realm and Chu Jingsui into Marrow Cleansing, her heart was somewhat gratified, of course, there was also Chen Mu by her side, but she knew that with Chen Mu’s talent and his unwavering perseverance and dedication, even without her as his mentor, he would eventually reach this stage, just perhaps a few years slower, still differing from Chu Jingsui.
Whirr!
The Power of Heaven and Earth surged continuously into the depths of the great hall at Spirit Profound Peak, evidently due to Chu Jingsui solidifying his Martial Body.
Such a commotion might not be noticed by ordinary practitioners of the Five Organ and Viscera Realm, but for many Elders and Peak Masters of the Seven Profound Sect, it was naturally impossible not to notice.
