Chapter 613 - 613 328 Three Gates Physique Qi Soul (4000)_2

Chapter 613: 328 Three Gates: Physique, Qi, Soul (4000)_2 Chapter 613: 328 Three Gates: Physique, Qi, Soul (4000)_2 “Tears of Blue Eye?” Casio’s heart skipped a beat. After probing the conversation with Jilan, he had already gained quite a bit of knowledge. For example, the shards of the gate impart a premonition that vaguely reveals the right time and place to its owner.

This is where the temporal and spatial position can bring the shards into play.

What Jilan lamented earlier was obviously the various elements required for the shards to function, including the Tears of Blue Eye.

Could it be that the Tears of Blue Eye not only restrict the shards of the gate but also play a role in the subsequent ceremony?

Casio felt the need to delve more into this, taking advantage of Jilan’s sympathy for his previous plight.

Thus, he talked more and made various indirect inquiries.

Ten minutes passed.

Finally, he had basically made sense of the shards of the gate.

This was a ceremony widely spread among the core members of the Gate Organization.

“Open the gate.”

As long as one owns a shard of the gate, the premonition will tell you the right time between heaven and earth, and the right area corresponding to a shard. This area may sometimes be in the northern part of the Federation, sometimes in the south, or even overseas.

But, without exception, the vague area pointed out is where human cities are located.

At the right time and place, the core members of the Gate Organization need to bring out the consumable given by the leader, the Tears of Blue Eye. It’s okay if it has previously been used with strange powers, as this is just a superficial feature of the Tears of Blue Eye. The material itself is the most important thing.

You need to place the Tears of Blue Eye on the pineal position on your forehead for a brief moment. This way, the third Eye of the Soul will open, revealing the gate that exists between illusion and reality!

Then all you need to do is push it open.

Inside the gate lies the truth, the eternity, and the essence of this world.

So, what does this gate have to do with humans?

Humans, as the essence of all things and the spirit of heaven and earth, have a physique, Qi, and soul. They are the origin, the spiritual species. Moreover, they are the protagonists of this era, influencing the whole world.

A core member of the Gate Organization once described it using the Soma Myth of the Star Blue Empire – the essence of life and the source of mystery.

The realm enveloped by the shards of the gate, the moment when time freezes.

All human physiques integrate to form the Gate of Physique.

All human Qi steams to form the Gate of Qi.

All human souls ascend to form the Gate of Souls.

Once you push open the gate corresponding to the shard, you may see the Lake of Physique, the Lake of Qi, and the Lake of Soul.

Then, just take a scoop!

This is the greatest function of the shards of the gate!!!

“Collective cultivation! Essentially taking away the power of nearly a million people in an entire city! It may be just one-thousandth or even one ten-thousandth, but when aggregated, it is hundreds or thousands of people!”

Casio was shocked, is this the real purpose of the shards of the gate? At its core, it’s a brutal plunder, the harvesting of the weak by the strong. Although, spread out among everyone, it can be described as minimal.

One could probably naturally recover from it after a night’s sleep.

But when examined at the root, it is indeed bloody.

“Wait, one shard of the gate has a limited coverage, what about hundreds of shards?! What if someone could piece together a complete gate! When pushing open the gate, the range directly covers the whole world? Taking a scoop from the power ocean of the whole world?”

Casio shivered abruptly, feeling the hairs on the back of his neck rise.

The whole Hong Li Federation has 250 million people, the other two major powers are similar, adding up to 700-800 million. With the addition of various medium and small countries, over a billion people. The total global population is close to two billion.

One ten-thousandth of two billion people equals 200,000 people.

If the combined strength and physique of 200,000 people are added to a person, they could transform into a superhuman with the power to move mountains.

If the Qi of two hundred thousand people converges on a single person, that person can transform into the Saint Fist—a deity depicted in the Saint Fist. He could envelop an entire city with the World of Qi, like a God in the clouds.

If the spirits of two hundred thousand people merge into one person, that person can see through the essence of the world, understanding the laws governing most things. They could even, by quantity turning into quality, transform into a horrifying telekinetic ability, capable of flying, controlling objects, and killing without a trace.

Is this what the Door Organization has been pursuing all this time?

Indeed, it is the profound gateway to all mysteries.

No wonder, during the last Retrospection. People like the Black Peacock and the Purple General were so youthful yet exceptionally powerful. Some of them seemed to have gotten half-way into the journey but, in reality, their true cultivation time might not even be half their age. This is clearly the result of the fragments of the Door.

If the initial level of their Secret Martial Art is not bad, even if they were a pig, after ten or more years and surviving several Door opening ceremonies.

They might be able to become powerful martial artists.

These are the core members of the Door Organization. So, where is Xiadu, the elusive leader? Core members of the Door Organization obtain the Tear of Blue Eye from him. In exchange, they need to hand over a fragment of the Door. This organization has existed for quite some time. Over the millennia, how many fragments have been accumulated in Xiadu’s hands?

Could it be enough to piece together a complete Door?

Casio recalled the ancient Extreme Fist he encountered in the Akaba Ruins, and the final image seen in the World of Qi.

Xiadu might have lived for a very, very long time.

By a thousand years ago, he had at least reached the level of Saint Fist.

No, perhaps the timeline could be pushed back a little more. Because the elderly Extreme Fist was also howling, “Xiadu, you’ve lived long enough!”

So, perhaps Xiadu had already been collecting fragments of the Door back then? The question is whether he has been able to move around freely for these thousand years or has had to sleep a lot. Most creatures that live long have some side effects, like the high-ranking Blood Clan in the Akaba Ruins, or the Totem King of the Hundred-Thousand Mountain.

Casio tried not to show his feelings, still behaving as calmly as possible. His thoughts, however, were flying like a train, digesting this shocking information without stopping for a moment.

Obviously, there are different types of Door fragments.

Fragments of Physique, fragments of Qi, and fragments of Soul.

The fragment of the Door that Jilan acquired was a Body Fragment, which coincidently countered the side effects of the Black Hand. It can strengthen the body, fill it with vitality, and quickly prolong the lifespan.

As for Casio’s own.

He speculated that it must be a Soul Fragment. Whether it was the illusory landscape of Mansa Village or the dark biological transformation of the Spirit during the Era of Retrospection, the type of the fragment was being demonstrated.

After opening the Gate of Soul with a Soul Fragment, a person’s perception can be greatly enhanced. Producing some strange soul/spiritual abilities is secondary. Perception is very important for martial artists, especially at the later stages. It is even more crucial than the Core bone.

Some bottlenecks, once comprehended, can be overcome.

If not, they can never be surpassed in one’s lifetime.

Always stuck at that level.

Take Blood Fist Feng Liusi for example. While he has reached the fifth stage of the South Dipper Red Vulture Fist, his potential and perception are almost exhausted. Even if Casio restores Feng Liusi to his youth, and he spends several more decades, he probably won’t be able to master the South Dipper Red Vulture Fist. However, if Feng Liusi has undergone multiple baptisms of the Soul Fragment, it would be different—the limiting upper limit would be raised.

Mastering boxing methods, challenging the Tyrant Fist, is not without hope.

Casio pondered for a while, then glanced at Jilan again.

This person possessed a Body Fragment. If he put himself in that situation.

If he could open the gate using a Body Fragment, what kind of scene would that be? A crazed increase in the level of his physical reconstruction, advancing a great deal towards the direction of a miniature Demon Idol? A comprehensive upgrade of his skeleton?

Or would his muscle density continue to increase, progressing from the initial triple the muscle density of a fighter to five times, six times, or even ten times that?

Or would another waist grow out, turning into four kidneys?

Casio didn’t know what would happen, but the one thing he knew for sure was that opening the gate with a Body Fragment would bring his already formidable physical advantages to a terrifying level!

Could he, relying solely on his physical strength, forcefully thrash top-notch fighters?

Casio felt that a Body Fragment was something he needed to have!
