High Martial Arts: Enlightenment after Practices

He raised his hand, the Power of his Heart Image condensing in his palm.

This time, he didn’t try to "grasp" gravity. Instead, he immersed himself in the perception of concepts like "weight," "sinking," and "pulling."

Mountains have weight, which is why they are stable.

Water flows downward because it is drawn by gravity.

People stand on the ground without floating away because the Earth is pulling them down.

This was all common sense—the "gravity" everyone could feel.

Xu Wuyi closed his eyes, letting his consciousness sink into his sea of awareness.

The Dark Gold Mountain Body stood majestic and imposing. The mountain represented the Earth, representing immense weight and the power to bear it.

He imagined the mountain’s weight, the feeling of it pressing down on the Earth, becoming one with it.

Gradually, the Power of his Heart Image began to flow.

It didn’t extend outward, but rather condensed inward.

The space in his palm distorted slightly, and a heavy sensation emerged. It wasn’t that gravity had increased, but that the concept of "weight" in that area had been amplified.

It was like magnifying a stone into a mountain.

Although its actual mass hadn’t changed, the feeling it gave off was completely different.

Xu Wuyi opened his eyes and looked at his palm.

He could feel that the Rules in that area had changed, but he couldn’t quite describe how.

This wasn’t Gravity Manipulation in the scientific sense, but rather an "endowment of weight" on the level of his Heart Image.

’So that’s how it is...’

A wave of understanding washed over Xu Wuyi.

He didn’t need to understand the physical nature of gravity. He just needed to understand the concept of "weight" and use that understanding to drive the Power of his Heart Image.

As for why it produced an effect similar to gravity, that didn’t matter.

Humanity’s understanding of "gravity" had also evolved over time, but this increase in scientific accuracy hadn’t made Martial Artists in related fields any stronger.

Whether the current theories were even more correct was, in itself, an unprovable proposition.

The Power of a Heart Image could interfere with reality and its Rules. As long as his "understanding" was deep and firm enough, it could produce a corresponding effect.

This was the true essence of cultivating the Heart Image.

It wasn’t about pursuing a "correct" understanding of the Rules, but about building one’s own unique, self-consistent "cognitive system."

Once he figured this out, Xu Wuyi felt his thoughts become much clearer.

He once again began to practice the Profound Nether Celestial Spear.

This time, his Spear Technique was no longer stiff or forced.

Every Spear Thrust carried a natural "sinking feeling," as if the spear itself was meant to be that heavy, that stable.

The hum in the air grew deeper and more resonant.

The ground began to tremble slightly, not from external pressure, but stirred into a kind of resonance by his Spear Momentum.

[Martial Arts: Profound Nether Celestial Spear]

[Current Realm: Minor Achievement (97.1%)]

A single moment of insight had increased his progress by nearly two percent.

Xu Wuyi stood with his spear and let out a long breath.

He looked out the window at the night sky, a trace of anticipation in his eyes.

’Tomorrow, I’ll check the Battle Network for Grandmaster Xie Tang’s courses.’

He was very curious about what kind of "understanding" the Gravity Grandmaster from a century ago had of the Gravity Rules.

The next morning, after finishing his exercises, Xu Wuyi didn’t attend the group training. Instead, he asked Tang Xiuqi for a half-day’s leave.

"Going to the Battle Network to look up some information?" Tang Xiuqi nodded after hearing Xu Wuyi’s request. "Go ahead. Nothing should happen this morning."

Xu Wuyi returned to his dorm, put on his personal terminal, and connected to the Star Martial Battle Network.

He didn’t go to the public areas, but directly entered the military’s internal database.

After inputting keywords like "Grandmaster Xie Tang" and "Gravity Course," the system quickly retrieved the relevant content.

[An Alternative Understanding of the Gravity Rules—A Recorded Lecture by Grandmaster Xie Tang (Video File)]

[Recording Date: Year 87, New Calendar]

[Duration: 6 hours, 22 minutes]

[Access Requirement: Martial Artist and above]

Xu Wuyi hit play.

An old-fashioned lecture hall appeared on the light screen, complete with wooden desks, chairs, a blackboard, and chalk.

A slight smile appeared on Xu Wuyi’s face.

He had already looked up Grandmaster Xie Tang’s biography. Even a century ago, the Federation had already modernized, but it was said that Grandmaster Xie was a professor in his early years and was fond of this teaching method.

A middle-aged man in a gray robe stood before the lectern. His face was lean, and his eyes were gentle.

This was Grandmaster Xie Tang.

"Hello, everyone. Today, let’s talk about gravity."

Grandmaster Xie Tang’s voice, coming through a century-old recording device, was somewhat distorted but still clear.

"In many people’s minds, gravity is the force with which the Earth attracts objects, the curvature of spacetime caused by mass, one of the four fundamental forces."

He turned and wrote a single large word on the blackboard: Gravity.

"All of these are correct, but they are also all wrong."

Grandmaster Xie Tang put down the chalk and looked toward the virtual audience, although at that moment, it consisted of only Xu Wuyi.

"They are correct because they are scientific truths, objective facts. They are wrong because, for us Martial Artists, these truths are meaningless."

Xu Wuyi held his breath, listening intently.

"A Martial Artist cultivates the Heart Image, the Spirit, the will. The gravity we use is not gravity in the physical sense, but ’Heart Image Gravity.’"

Grandmaster Xie Tang raised his hand, palm facing up.

"What is Heart Image Gravity? It is your perception of concepts like ’weight,’ ’sinking,’ and ’pulling.’ It is your own deep, internal understanding of ’gravity.’"

The space in his palm began to distort.

It wasn’t a gentle distortion like Grandmaster Ren Bai’s, but a more direct, more violent one.

Light was pulled and bent, and the air let out a sharp shriek.

Xu Wuyi could feel the concept of "weight" in that area being magnified countless times, as if an invisible, microscopic black hole was forming there.

"Do you see?" Grandmaster Xie Tang said. "I didn’t alter the curvature of spacetime or increase its mass. I simply amplified the concept of ’weight.’"

He lowered his hand, and the space returned to normal.

"This is Heart Image Gravity. It doesn’t follow the laws of physics; it only follows the cognition of your Heart Image."

Grandmaster Xie Tang walked to the blackboard and wrote down several keywords:

[Concept] [Cognition] [Heart Image Mapping]

"To cultivate the Gravity Rules, the first step isn’t to study physics, but to feel ’weight.’"

"Feel the weight of a stone, the weight of a mountain, the immense weight of the Earth, the pull of the stars."

"Internalize these feelings and form your own ’concept of gravity.’"

"Then, use the Power of your Heart Image to map this ’concept’ onto reality and interfere with the Rules."

Grandmaster Xie Tang paused, his tone growing serious.

"Remember, your understanding doesn’t need to be ’correct,’ it only needs to be ’self-consistent.’"

"Even if you believe gravity is the embrace of an earth god, as long as that cognition is firm enough and profound enough, it will still produce an effect."

"The Power of a Heart Image is belief in ’belief’ itself."
