High Martial Arts: Enlightenment after Practices

Xu Wuyi stared blankly at the light screen, a tempest raging in his heart.

It was about believing in "belief" itself.

This one sentence completely upended his understanding of Heart Image cultivation.

It turned out that the Power of Heart Image wasn’t an imitation of real-world rules, but a manifestation of one’s own self-perception.

Whatever you believe, you can achieve.

Of course, this "belief" wasn’t wishful thinking or a daydream. It was a "Heart Image cognition" built upon a foundation of profound Cultivation and unwavering will.

Just as Grandmaster Xie Tang believed "weight" could be amplified, allowing his palm to generate an effect similar to a black hole.

Just as Xu Wuyi believed Flame could incinerate the soul, so his Golden Crow Burning Heart fire could target the Spirit.

"So... I’ve been going in the wrong direction all this time," Xu Wuyi muttered to himself. "No, it’s not that I was wrong, exactly. I was just too obsessed with being correct."

He had always tried to understand Gravity with a scientific approach, to simulate a real Gravity Field. In his mind, what was real was what was correct.

But now he understood that it didn’t matter. No one could ever reach absolute truth; everyone was just a blind man touching an elephant.

’What is my inner perception of "Gravity"?’

’Is it "heaviness"? "Sinking"? "Pulling"? Or "binding"?’

As long as that perception was clear enough and firm enough, he could control Gravity in his own way.

Xu Wuyi closed the video and logged out of the Battle Network.

He didn’t start cultivating immediately. Instead, he sat on the edge of his bed, thinking quietly.

He needed to rebuild his perception of Gravity.

Not Gravity as a concept of physics, but "Gravity" as a concept of his Heart Image.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Countless images flashed through Xu Wuyi’s mind: the majesty of mountains, the weight of the Earth, the downward flow of water, the pull of stars...

...

Inside the Cultivation Room, Xu Wuyi slowly opened his eyes.

Two days had passed since he watched Grandmaster Xie Tang’s video. During that time, he hadn’t rushed to cultivate. Instead, he had sat in quiet contemplation, reorganizing his perception of "Gravity."

Grandmaster Xie Tang was right. The Power of Heart Image didn’t need to be correct in a physical sense; it only needed to be self-consistent.

Xu Wuyi recalled Grandmaster Ren Bai’s words: everyone’s understanding of the Rules is unique, and another person’s path may not be right for you.

"I’ll start with the simplest thing," Xu Wuyi murmured. "’Heavy’—increasing an object’s weight."

This was the most direct manifestation of Gravity, and the concept most easily understood by ordinary people.

A stone is already heavy. If he could make it even heavier, it would be enough to crush an opponent in battle.

Xu Wuyi reached out and picked up a piece of Geocentric Flame Iron. The dark red ore was warm to the touch, about the size of a fist, and weighed around five kilograms.

He closed his eyes, and the Power of Heart Image enveloped the ore.

He wasn’t trying to alter the curvature of space or increase its mass. Instead, he was projecting his perception of "heavy" onto the stone.

Images of majestic mountains, the boundless Earth, and the vast river of stars appeared in his mind...

Gradually, the Geocentric Flame Iron in Xu Wuyi’s hand began to "grow heavier."

Its actual mass hadn’t increased. Rather, the "concept of weight" it carried had been amplified. The pressure on his palm grew greater and greater, his knuckles turning slightly pale.

Five kilograms, ten kilograms, twenty kilograms...

When the perceived weight surpassed fifty kilograms, Xu Wuyi stopped.

He opened his eyes. The Geocentric Flame Iron in his hand was still only the size of his fist, but the crushing feeling of its weight was undeniably real.

"It worked."

Xu Wuyi set the ore down. It hit the floor with a muffled thud, as if a truly heavy piece of metal had been dropped.

But this was only the first step.

"Next is to create Gravity in a certain direction, to generate a pull."

Xu Wuyi picked up the Geocentric Flame Iron again and placed it flat on the floor.

He held out his right hand, palm facing the ore, and extended his Power of Heart Image.

This time, the image that appeared in his mind was not of mountains, but of flowing water—water that flowed downward, pulled by the Earth.

He projected this perception of "pulling" into the space between the ore and his palm.

HUMMM.

The Geocentric Flame Iron trembled slightly, then slowly lifted off the ground, moving toward Xu Wuyi’s palm.

Although its speed was slow and it only moved less than ten centimeters, he had actually done it.

Xu Wuyi withdrew his Power of Heart Image, and the ore fell back to the floor with a CLACK.

"The pull worked, but it’s far from enough," he said to himself. "To form a freely controlled Force Field, I need to deepen and refine this pulling force, cover a larger area, and achieve more precise control."

This would take time, practice, and a deeper understanding.

Xu Wuyi was not impatient.

Enlightenment had to be achieved step by step. He had already found the right direction; all that was left was to walk the path.

For the next two days, aside from necessary rest and participating in defensive patrols, he poured all his time into comprehending the Gravity Rules.

In the Cultivation Room, the Geocentric Flame Iron would sometimes float and sometimes plummet. The surrounding air would sometimes feel as thick as a swamp, and other times as light as a feather.

Xu Wuyi’s control over Gravity grew more and more adept. Although he couldn’t yet form a complete "Gravity Domain," he could already precisely increase, decrease, and directionally pull Gravity within a small area.

He had almost completely abandoned his previous understanding, starting over from scratch. Once the two methods could achieve the same effect, he would then merge and master them.

And the data on his panel was growing steadily:

[Martial Arts: Profound Nether Celestial Spear]

[Current Realm: Minor Achievement (98.7%)]

He was just one final step away from Great Success.

And Xu Wuyi knew that this final step required a true "Great Enlightenment."

...

On the morning of the third day, Xu Wuyi arrived early at the Cultivation Room.

Today was the day he planned to seek Great Enlightenment through a thousand repetitions.

He had adjusted his condition to its peak. His Power of Heart Image was abundant, and his Spirit was full.

With the Liaoyuan Long Spear in hand, Xu Wuyi closed his eyes and stood quietly for a moment. Then he opened them and began to cultivate.

The first technique, Juntian Stance.

He thrust the spear. The surrounding air instantly grew heavy, and an invisible mountain seemed to press down wherever the spear tip passed.

One time, ten times, a hundred times...

Xu Wuyi was completely immersed in practicing the Spear Technique.

His comprehension of the Gravity Rules gradually merged with the Spear Technique’s moves. Each thrust carried a unique "sense of weight," no longer a simple repetition of techniques, but an extension of the Rules themselves.

Two hundred times, three hundred times, four hundred times...

Sweat soaked his combat uniform and his breathing grew heavy, but Xu Wuyi’s eyes remained clear.

He could feel his understanding of Gravity improving at a rapid pace.

Those abstract "concepts," "perceptions," and "Heart Image projections" were becoming concrete and clear through the thousand repetitions.

Seven hundred times, eight hundred times, nine hundred times...

The moment he completed the nine hundred and ninety-ninth repetition of the Spear Technique, a tremor ran through Xu Wuyi’s entire body.

In his sea of consciousness, the Dark Gold Mountain Body rumbled and shook. The patterns on its surface began to emit a faint, earthy-yellow glow.
