Chapter 311: Chapter 14 Boxing

Heavy snow had fallen overnight.

At dawn, Gu Shen awoke from the operation of the Jingzhe Breathing Technique.

Outside the window, there was the clamor of voices.

The residence arranged by Fatty Luo... was supposed to be under dedicated watch, strictly barring entry to any unrelated persons.

Who could be visiting so early in the morning?

"There are Transcendents... more than one," Chu Ling quickly mobilized the imagery, transmitting it into Gu Shen’s mind. "The visitors bear ill will, and it seems you are their target."

Gu Shen furrowed his brows.

...

...

In front of the small villa complex, Luo Yu’s personal guards stopped a group of Transcendents who were disregarding the restriction on entry.

A dozen or so young men and women, all looking very young, were heading straight for the villa area. How could this be tolerated?

"Sorry... this is the Gu family’s estate, have you perhaps come to the wrong place?"

The personal guard immediately stepped forward to block them.

His words were polite, but his meaning was clear.

However, these people were laughing and talking, surrounding a young man draped in a white cloak, completely ignoring the personal guard.

The man in the white cloak had sharp brows and bright eyes, and was exceptionally handsome.

His attitude was gentle, with a smile on his face.

"We’re not mistaken, this is the place we’re looking for."

An intangible pressure came upon them... The guard gritted his teeth, struggling to hold his ground: "May I ask who you are?"

"Who I am doesn’t matter... just a guest who admires the S-class reputation."

The man lifted his head, his gaze slowly traveling towards the depths of the villa complex, and he chuckled, "The Gu family has always been courteous to guests, surely they wouldn’t refuse a friendly visit, right?"

The guard’s expression shifted slightly, and before he could speak,

"Please... make way."

This time, as the courteous words were spoken,

A blast of air swept out.

The guard who was about to step forward changed color abruptly as an invisible force burst forth, striking him heavily in the chest and slamming him against a stone plinth.

"Brother Chu’s spiritual power has improved again," a young woman remarked nearby.

Another young person glanced at Luo Yu’s guard who had been sent flying and clicked his tongue, "This guy should also have the strength of the Deep Sea Third Level, yet Brother Chu’s mere thought struck him down... Is he already beginning to comprehend the ’Spiritual Domain’?"

Everyone discussed among themselves.

"It’s still early."

Brother Chu said with a smile, "There’s still a long way to go before comprehending the Spiritual Domain. Actually, it’s all because the Grain Rain Volume is so exquisite... I’ve only been practicing this Breathing Technique for half a year, and every organ and meridian in my body seems to have been purified."

The trial of the deep water area for Spiritual Extraordinaries.

The first three levels are about hypnosis and Great Hypnosis.

From the fourth to the sixth level, it’s about manifesting spiritual power in the physical world... Starting from the seventh level, it’s about comprehending the Spiritual Domain, which isn’t far different from the process for the Brute Force and Natural Extraordinaries. The former involves constructing a Spiritual World, while the latter involves understanding the origin of matter.

Spiritual Extraordinaries who reach the tenth level then have their own complete domains.

Such as Han Dang’s "True Word."

By this point, the paths of the three systems converge, as the Brute Force and Natural—both paths of external cultivation—begin to consider the internal.

One progresses from the inside out,

While the other two go from the outside in.

Upon reaching the tenth level, each has their own "Domain of Artifacts," "Spirit Ocean," and "Elemental World."

And in the process of Extraordinary Cultivation, the role of the Breathing Technique is to bridge the "discord" between the body and spirit. The more powerful the Breathing Technique, the lower the risk of losing control and the higher the stability during advancement.

However, the body has its own "habits."

Practicing a Breathing Technique requires a great deal of spiritual effort.

To contemplate, to understand, and to integrate.

Thus, every Extraordinary longs to obtain a "powerful" Breathing Technique that can provide perpetual ease... As for practicing multiple Breathing Techniques, this is almost unheard of.

Switching between different breathing rhythms, even if the spirit can bear it, the body cannot. This principle is not difficult to understand, just like no one tries to accommodate different "Extraordinary Essences" in an attempt to assimilate two different Extraordinary Abilities.

For most Extraordinaries, once a Breathing Technique is chosen, they rarely switch to another.

Otherwise, they would have to spend a great deal of time allowing the body to get reacquainted with a new breathing rhythm and visualization pattern.

...

...

Brother Chu and his entourage headed towards the villas.

In fact, the moment these people had taken their first steps through the main gate, they had already drawn attention from inside.

The Gu Family Young Master, sitting cross-legged in front of his bed, slowly opened his eyes.

With spiritual power wrapped in Lan Qie, he could see the distant scene clearly.

Uninvited guests first thing in the morning... Gu Nanfeng glanced at Xing Yun who was fast asleep in the next room, and thought with a touch of irony, was this the "good fortune" Tomb Ghost had brought him?

"Brother Nanfeng,"

The next moment.

A soft flame, carrying Gu Shen’s spiritual power, flowed along with the voice of Lan Qie, reaching him.

Gu Nanfeng was slightly taken aback.

"These people have come for me,"

Gu Shen’s voice had no hint of anger, only calmness, "If it’s convenient for you, leave what comes next to me; there’s no need for you to intervene."

The same words were also conveyed to Lu Nanjin.

Gu Shen stood in front of the window.

"Chu Jue, joined Changye Prison three years ago, rated B+, a Spiritual Extraordinary with current strength at the Deep Water Area Fifth Layer,"

Chu Ling listed out the complete file.

There were twelve individuals in total; the one that required the most attention was Chu Jue... the others were all newcomers to Changye Prison this year, having begun their Extraordinary Cultivation less than half a year ago, with ratings varying between B and D.
