Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along

Chapter 77: Nurturing Spiritual Roots Awakening the Viscera Phase


Through the explanations of the King of North of the River and Ao Dagang, Zhang Lingfeng learnt that the so-called Realm Traveler is not only a cultivator whose spiritual power is manifested in a tangible form.

It is also a formidable existence where the integration of the mind and Dantian Sea of Qi forms Spirit Root Power.

Spiritual Martial Artists can only achieve resonance with the world through their physical bodies, allowing their minds to continuously transform, and forming realms, domains, and demon realms, among others.

However, those who possess spiritual roots can call the wind and rain through them, transcending rules and even wield celestial thunder, killing from ten miles away.

Some can even plunder the power of heaven and earth within a radius of ten miles, refining the Five Elements Heavenly Power into their own spiritual power, enhancing it to let their bodies break through limitations, extending their life span from two hundred to three hundred years.

Zhang Lingfeng was extremely shocked.

As his strength advanced, his horizons expanded, and he already realized that the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance houses numerous super strong individuals, with suffocating presences existing between each major star system.

He just did not expect that within the Great Xia Kingdom, those responsible for the initial national exam screening process possess such strength, with the combat power of Realm Travelers at least above 10000.0, even much higher.

Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but ask many questions.

"How does Destruction Mental Power compare to Spirit Root Power?"

Everyone was taken aback.

The King of North of the River laughed wryly, saying, "The Sea of Consciousness and the mind are actually interconnected; whether it's mental telekinesis, spiritual power, or even the Dantian Sea of Qi you'll encounter later, all exist to nurture spiritual roots.

The Dantian Sea of Qi is like a spirit field.

The more fertile the spirit field, the stronger the spiritual roots it nurtures.

The Sea of Consciousness and the mind are like springs in the spirit field—their existence not only helps you more easily nurture spiritual roots, but also allows your spiritual roots to transform, turning you into a powerful cultivator.

However, to you, this is still very distant; even to me it is so."

"To nurture spiritual roots not only requires strong spiritual power but also a bountiful Dantian Sea of Qi. Your Dharma Aspect has not yet achieved perfection—telling you too much now won't make sense to you. But I must tell you, since the Great Crossing River Era ended, Jiangbei Province has never seen a single Realm Traveler emerge, not even one with the weakest spiritual roots."

Ao Dagang reminded.

"To nurture spiritual roots, not only must one's Dharma Aspect reach perfection, but one must also open up a Dantian Sea of Qi capable of nurturing spiritual roots. This threshold blocks most people.

We old folks have been trying to enhance the level of the Dantian Sea of Qi, hoping to nurture Spirit Root Power in the future, but even I, let alone the boss, lack the confidence to do so."

Huo Jiating chimed in.

The three all felt a bit despondent.

At their level of strength, in the eyes of ordinary people, they are already dominating figures, towering over one side. But within their hearts, there's a deep unease.

Clearly, the power of Realm Travelers lies right before them, but regardless of effort, they cannot grasp it, forever stuck without becoming Realm Travelers, possibly eternally bottlenecked, unable to make further progress.

"This..."

Zhang Lingfeng hadn't expected this.

Instinctively realizing that the combat power of Realm Travelers far exceeds 10000.0, otherwise why could even the King of North of the River as a Destruction Mental Telekinesis Master not nurture spiritual roots?

It's just unknown what kind of Dantian Sea of Qi must be opened to nurture spiritual roots. Even under the enhancement of mental telekinesis and spiritual power, allowing the spiritual roots to transform into strong Realm Travelers.

After the Great Crossing River Era, Jiangbei Province has never seen another Realm Traveler appear, which shows just how terrifying Realm Travelers are.

"Doesn't the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance have any spirit liquid or medicinal liquid that directly helps humans nurture spiritual roots?"

Thinking about the difficulties involved, Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but ask.

"Of course there is."

The King of North of the River nodded, somewhat dejectedly, saying, "Any bottle of spirit liquid capable of nurturing spiritual roots is extraordinary, not only guarded by Realm Travelers but also requiring tremendous merit to exchange for—it cannot be measured by money, only through barter."

"What kind of merit?"

Zhang Lingfeng was undeterred.

"Slay realm-level demon beasts."

Ao Dagang said.

"Uh..."

Zhang Lingfeng felt suffocated, "Without awakening spiritual roots, how does one slay realm-level demon beasts? You can't just form a group to do it—even if you succeed, a bottle of spirit liquid isn't enough for everyone to share."

Hearing this, Ao Dagang, the King of North of the River, and Huo Jiating and the others couldn't contain their laughter, patting each other's thighs.

"What's wrong, are you trying to join forces against realm-level demon beasts?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked incredulously.

"We have to give it a try, though we will have all sorts of adequate preparations and not rush into danger."

The King of North of the River said.

"My brother is immensely gifted, possessing Destruction Mental Power and spiritual power, surpassing even us. If he doesn't become a Realm Traveler, it would be quite regrettable—it would also mean a huge loss for Jiangbei Province."

Ao Dagang said.

"For a Fourth-tier Province to upgrade to a Third-tier Province, having Realm Travelers is a mandatory requirement; otherwise, even if you advance to the last round of the national exam, Jiangbei Province cannot become a Third-tier Province. Of course, resource subsidies will increase significantly for a period, but won't continue unless you become a Realm Traveler."

Huo Jiating explained.

Zhang Lingfeng was silent for a long time. He already knew that the resource allocation of the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance primarily relies on the strength and contributions of each location as the measurement standard.

Jiangbei Province, with its harsh geographical environment, faces threats from marine life and borders the Great Radiation Zone. The last time Ao Dagang eradicated the Catfish Demon Queen and destroyed the Catfish Demon was already a considerable achievement.
