Da Xuan Martial Saint

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had gone by.

Within the humble bamboo hut, Chen Mu still sat cross-legged on the simple bamboo bed, his inner breath flaring and dimming intermittently, the spiritual light of his Five Viscera flickering, the Qi of his Six Viscera weaving around him. It was vaguely noticeable that within his body, five of the Six Viscera had been awakened, with only the final step, the Triple Burner, remaining.

Among the Five Viscera and Six Viscera, all viscera are tangible internal organs, except for the Triple Burner, which is the only 'virtual organ' among them. It encompasses everything, existing outside of the viscera but within the shell of the body. The upper burner covers the entire chest area, the middle burner extends from the chest to the navel, and the lower burner refers to the area below the navel. Unified as one, they are collectively known as the Triple Burner.

In reality.

Within the Six Viscera, the Triple Burner is not only the last to be awakened but also the most important. For before the Triple Burner is awakened, the Five Viscera and Six Viscera, although each completing a cycle, are independent of each other and do not interact. Only by fully awakening the Triple Burner can the Five Viscera and Six Viscera be unified into a complete whole, stepping truly into the Viscera Realm.

For most people, the solidifying refinement of the Triple Burner is the most challenging step in the cultivation of the Six Viscera. However, for Chen Mu, the difficulty isn't that high. Following the steps of the 'Six Viscera Sutra', he first determines the position of the Triple Burner, then encapsulates it with Yuan Qi, refining its essence.

At this moment.

One could see the lights of Chen Mu's Five Viscera flickering uncertainly within his body, organs like the intestines, stomach, and gallbladder in the Six Viscera also twinkling with specks of luminescence. With each breath, Heaven and Earth's Yuan Qi continuously surged into his body, completing cycles within him.

Not knowing how much time had passed, finally, his body shuddered. All of a sudden, a beam of light burst forth from his chest, then spread downwards, eventually covering all his internal organs, linking the Five Viscera and Six Viscera together, becoming one.

Gradually.

All the spiritual light within Chen Mu's body dimmed, returning to a normal state, and the tumultuous Yuan Qi also finally calmed down, restoring him to his original appearance.

He slowly opened his eyes, exhaling the last breath of turbid air.

"Done."

There was a calmness in Chen Mu's eyes. Raising his right hand, he made a grasping motion in the air, feeling the surging Yuan Qi flowing between his body, unleashed after penetration within his body, the mighty Yuan Gang True Essence was far superior to before.

With just a rough sense, he could discern that the Yuan Gang Force he possessed now was almost precisely what he had anticipated earlier.

Whoosh.

Chen Mu stood up and stepped out, leaving his hut. Soon after, a few leaps took him far from the gateway of the Seven Profound Sect, heading towards the back mountains of the sect where he used to practice.

Then, he clenched his fist and swung a punch at the rock wall, unleashing no Artistic Conception but merely the explosive force of Yuan Gang True Essence. The mighty Yuan Gang formed a visible ripple, surging forth instantaneously, as his punch blasted into the rock wall.

Boom!!!

The entire rock wall shook violently and exploded into countless shattered stones and fragments scattering around.

Looking at the scene before him, a smile finally appeared on Chen Mu's face. Since stepping into the Five Viscera Realm and mastering the Qiankun Artistic Conception, the power of the Artistic Conception had been nearly all of his strength, his own Yuan Gang being too weak compared to the Qiankun Artistic Conception.

But now, with him reaching the limit of the Five Viscera, the phase of Five Qi Toward Yuan, and truly establishing himself at the level of the Six Viscera Realm, his Yuan Gang True Essence had finally undergone a qualitative change, taking a huge leap upwards!

If measured in 'portions', his Yuan Gang True Essence alone was now comparable to twenty portions of The Power of Heaven and Earth!

"With the Qiankun Artistic Conception added on, if I were to strike with all my strength now, I estimate I'd reach the standard of the top ten on the Wind Cloud List. And for me, this is just the initial step into the Six Viscera Realm," he said.

Chen Mu took a deep breath and summoned the system panel.

[Six Viscera Sutra (30%)]

[Experience: 0]

"Awakening the Triple Burner of the Six Viscera, stepping onto the threshold of the Six Viscera Realm, I've already completed thirty percent of the cultivation in this realm," Chen Mu observed the display on the system panel, his expression thoughtful.

This wasn't much different from what he had expected.

After all.

When an ordinary martial artist steps into the Six Viscera Realm and fully awakens the Six Viscera to consolidate the Realm, their Yuan Gang generally increases by twice the amount of the Five Viscera Realm basis, and thereafter no great strides are made, rather like the Five Viscera Realm and above, it is a gradual improvement.

Continuing to cultivate to the Six Viscera Realm's Perfection, one's Yuan Gang would be approximately three times what it was at the time of the Five Viscera Realm.

However, in Chen Mu's view, this so-called 'Perfection' perhaps is somewhat of a misnomer. If measured by the progress of Yuan Gang True Essence, then many people who cultivate to the Perfection of the Six Viscera Realm might only have completed sixty percent of the refinement of the realm.

According to what he knew, including the descriptions in various Martial Canons, it's rare for anyone to train beyond seventy percent.

This is quite normal, after all, it's the same with the Five Viscera Realm. Since the advent of Body Tempering Methods, it's unknown if anyone has completed the eleventh tempering, not to mention the thirteenth, the ultimate limit.

For the vast majority of martial artists, given the current environment of Heaven and Earth's Yuan Qi and their resource limits, reaching seventy percent in the Six Viscera Realm is indeed their 'limit', hardly able to make a further step.

"If I could cultivate to the limit in the Five Viscera Realm, then I can do the same in the Six Viscera Realm... The difficulty for martial artists to break through the Mysterious Pass is so tough, requiring such profound understanding of Artistic Conception, as well as an extremely strong Martial Arts will. Perhaps, the reason is also due to their own foundations being somewhat deficient," he thought.

"If one could cultivate the Five Viscera and Six Viscera to their limits, building a perfect foundation, then perhaps, like ascending from Jade Bone into the Five Viscera Realm, breaking through the Mysterious Pass to enter the Marrow Cleansing would be as effortless as things naturally falling into place."
