Chapter 720: Chapter 380 Above Void-breaking, Using the Body as the Domain_2
Li Xuanle chuckled and patted Su Lingxiu's small hand, which was massaging his shoulder, with the Jade Ruyi. "Alright, today I will pass on this divine skill to you all."
Xu Yan and the other three were thrilled beyond measure. If they successfully cultivated this divine skill, wouldn't it mean that no disguise or extraordinary person could ever deceive their eyes?
"The divine skill I am going to impart to you is a type of pupil technique, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao. Of course, with your current realm, it is impossible for you to cultivate the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
"Therefore, I will teach you the foundation of cultivating the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, the Minor Eye of the Heavenly Dao."
Li Xuan explained the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, extolling its profound mystery and formidable power. His four disciples listened with excitement, their faces flushed with eagerness, wishing they could master it right away.
"The Minor Eye of the Heavenly Dao, though only the foundation of the Eye of the Heavenly Dao, is also unfathomably subtle. Once cultivated successfully, seeing through illusions, breaking enchantments, slaying enemies, and tracking targets will be effortless..."
Next, Li Xuan elaborated on the Minor Eye of the Heavenly Dao he had concocted, meticulously explaining it to the four disciples.
After ensuring that his disciples had thoroughly memorized it, he added, "As for how to cultivate it, how to comprehend it, and whether external aids can be used, you will need to explore on your own.
"The Minor Eye of the Heavenly Dao varies according to perception; the result of cultivation will differ among individuals, and will not be identical for everyone."
Li Xuan was already quite skilled at fabricating such things. To prevent discrepancies in the cultivation results among his disciples after they discussed and explored, he preemptively addressed this potential loophole.
"Yes, Master!"
The four disciples, including Xu Yan, responded excitedly.
After passing on the Minor Eye of the Heavenly Dao, it was time to pass on the subsequent martial arts cultivation techniques.
His gaze settled on Xu Yan, and he spoke, "My disciple, you have come to understand the Martial Arts Techniques of the Void-breaking Realm, and you have made significant progress in cultivating divine skills. I believe it won't be long before you break through to the Physiognomy Realm and even the Void-breaking Realm.
"Today, I will pass on to you the Martial Arts Principles that transcend the Void-breaking Realm!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan instantly became spirited and said excitedly, "Yes, thank you, Master!"
Li Xuan twirled the Jade Ruyi in his hand, his gaze profound, and he spoke solemnly, "The Void-breaking Realm, breaking through the confines of space within heaven and earth, unbound by the spatial restrictions of this world. Since you have come to understand its principles, you must realize that the Void-breaking Realm lays the foundation for transcending heaven and earth."
Xu Yan nodded, respectfully replying, "Disciple understands!"
Li Xuan stood up, one hand clasped behind his back as he slightly tilted his head to look towards the firmament, a mysterious aura flickering about him, which instantly elevated the image of a sage to boundless heights.
"Heaven and earth, to the feeble, are vast and boundless; even in a lifetime, one cannot traverse its full expanse. Yet, to those aspiring to the pinnacle of martial arts, once they reach a certain realm, it seems more like a prison.
"Countless martial prowess talents ultimately seek to transcend heaven and earth, to break free from restrictions, to step onto the peak of martial arts. Yet, how many of those talents find themselves trapped within the confines of heaven and earth throughout their lives..."
A somber voice rang out, causing Xu Yan's heart to tremble. It was as if he saw countless martial prowess talents, trapped and sighing within heaven and earth, some even undergoing drastic changes in temperament.
"The Heavenly Grotto is a fissure in heaven and earth, through which enemies from beyond invade. Yet, the martial artists of this domain are unable to leave and transcend heaven and earth.
"Surely, many a powerful being must feel helpless and indignant, wouldn't you think?"
As Xu Yan pondered these words, he deeply felt the desolation of those martial prowess talents mentioned by his master.
Li Xuan, feeling that the groundwork had been sufficiently laid, declared with a dignified tone, "Above the Void-breaking Realm lies the Domain Realm!
"Embodying heaven and earth, detaching from the external world, opening up a martial domain with the principles of martial arts.
"Establishing the will of martial arts as the Will of the Earth!"
The Domain Realm!
Xu Yan's spirit lifted, his face alight with excitement. At that moment, all the martial arts realms below the Void-breaking Realm flashed through his mind.
From the foundations of Skin Refinement, Bone Refinement, Viscera Refinement, to the Qi-Blood Realm, the Innate Realm... all the way to the Void-breaking Realm. He had ascended through the martial arts realms step by step, cultivating each one in turn.
In the end, it was all to lay the foundation for the Domain Realm!
"So it is! Just as in the Divine Intent Realm, where my intent is the Heavenly Intent, my heart is the Heavenly Heart. Isn't this precisely the foundation for allowing the intent of martial arts to become the Will of the Earth?
"In the Divine Origin Realm, intent merges with True Yuan to undergo a transformation. Isn't this where the Qi of Domain, the Power of Domain, incorporates the martial artist's will, that the realm truly becomes one's own Domain?"
The more Xu Yan pondered, the clearer his understanding became. He extracted the true intent of each martial arts realm, forming the framework for a martial artist's Domain.
Watching Xu Yan, Li Xuan nodded to himself in satisfaction. Worthy of being a cultivator forging his own path in martial arts, he was now enlightened. It seemed that understanding the Martial Arts Law of the Domain Realm would not be too difficult.
"Master, are all the realms below the Void-breaking Realm just the foundation for establishing one's own Domain?"
After his moment of enlightenment, Xu Yan excitedly asked.
Li Xuan showed a look of gratification on his face, "Disciple, you have finally understood!"
But in his heart, he lamented, "What a prodigy, to have completed the mental construct and directly linked all the realms to form a cycle?"
With his master's affirmation, Xu Yan became even more excited.
"In the Domain Realm, the Martial Arts Principles serve as the foundation, creating a Martial Artist's own Heaven and Earth within the body. However, it does not mean that one in the Domain Realm has transcended Heaven and Earth.
"It's just that using one's body as Heaven and Earth, equal to the external Heaven and Earth, enables one's own domain to influence this great Heaven and Earth, genuinely possessing the might of Heaven and Earth.
"The cultivation in the Domain Realm is very difficult, as it requires the integration of one's own Martial Arts Principles, Spirit Pedestal, Primordial Spirit, and so on, into the realm of Heaven and Earth.
"Perception varies, and so does Heaven and Earth. The state of Heaven and Earth differs from person to person, each unique in their own way…"
Li Xuan continued to explain the theory of the Domain Realm.
After finishing the explanation of the Domain Realm theory and revealing the intent behind this realm, Xu Yan gained a direct understanding. Only then did Li Xuan begin to impart the Cultivation Methods of the Domain Realm.
This realm, as Li Xuan said, is very difficult to cultivate and break through. However, once broken through, it represents a tremendous uplift. It wouldn't be far from truly transcending Heaven and Earth.
The Martial Arts Techniques of the Domain Realm are even harder to comprehend than those of the Void-breaking Realm, more complex, and more challenging to actualize; the entire Cultivation Technique is also more lengthy.
"Although the Martial Arts Techniques of the Domain Realm are more complex and involve more aspects, with Xu Yan's prodigious abilities, he is ultimately capable of comprehending it.
"As long as he successfully comprehends the Domain Realm, then the realms above it will become somewhat easier.
"It can be said that the Domain Realm is a significant leap. From this realm onwards, one begins to touch upon the level of the Dao."
Li Xuan thought to himself silently.

Cultivation Difficulty: High+.
Li Xuan racked his brains trying to make the Domain Realm strong yet manageable to cultivate, but he couldn't reduce the difficulty level of cultivation.
In the end, he could only decide on it like this. However, he believed that with Xu Yan's monstrous talents, he was capable of comprehending and successfully cultivating it.
It was timely that Xu Yan was about to venture into the Divine Realm and traverse the Divine Territory, comprehending the mysteries of Heaven and Earth, which would aid him in grasping the Domain Realm and how to cultivate by embodying Heaven and Earth.
Li Xuan began to impart the Martial Arts Techniques of the Domain Realm, and Xu Yan listened attentively with a solemn expression. He realized that this realm was of utmost importance – a transformational stage.
Once he entered this state, he would truly embark on the path to the martial pinnacle and take a crucial step towards transcending Heaven and Earth.
This time, Li Xuan broke with tradition and explained the Domain Martial Arts Law three times, and Xu Yan, exceptionally, asked several questions about it.
Li Xuan answered each question patiently.
Not until Xu Yan had committed the Domain Martial Arts Law to memory and grasped a preliminary concept, was the imparting of the Martial Arts Law finally completed.
Meng Chong, Su Lingxiu, and Fang Hao, who had been quietly listening, were utterly shocked. It was too mysterious, too powerful, and too difficult to comprehend.
Indeed, the further one goes in Martial Arts, the more challenging it becomes to comprehend and break through.
Su Lingxiu also memorized the Cultivation Technique by heart, as after all, the advancement in realms for Alchemical Medical Martial Arts was similar to that of Pure Martial Arts.
Fang Hao was deep in thought. The path of Qimen Martial Art was set out before him; all he needed to do was keep cultivating.
But, he had not yet fully grasped what lay ahead.
"Domain Qimen Patterns are difficult to condense, the challenge is significant."
Fang Hao sighed in his heart, then immediately buoyed himself up, knowing that once he successfully condensed them, his deployment of Domain Qimen would be like controlling Heaven and Earth.
For those entering his Qimen, it would be like entering his own domain. In his Domain, life and death, everything would be within his control.
