Supreme Soaring Immortal

Chapter 44 Layer 1 of the Sensing Period

A trace of impurities was excreted, with Qin Shuang’s body refining. That exuberant true qi is also gradually consumed. Qin Shuang’s swelling balloon like body also began to shrink slowly. The true qi in the body has refined the skin, flesh, bone, marrow, viscera, and meridians.

“It’s changed! The princess has changed!” Qin Yunxia suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

Qin Ying stood up, nervously looking at Qin Shuang. Seeing the body of Qin Shuang is slowly shrinking, and then crouched in front of Qin Shuang, put her finger on the nose end, found that there is still a breath, her face is now happy.

"Pū……”

The blood of Qin Shuang spurted out, sprayed on the face of Qin Ying. This is because the true qi entered the first meridian of Qin Shuang, then hit that blocked meridian cartilage. The cartilage did not change in the slightest, but the rebound caused Qin Shuang’s blood to surge, spewing blood.

"Princess, princess…” Qin Ying was scared to cry out, but dare not touch Qin Shuang, a moment of panic.

In her heart, she understood that she had entered a very strange situation at this time. According to reason, the sensing period is only to sense the heaven and earth reiki. This stage can only sense the existence of the heaven and earth reiki, cannot introduce qi into the body, only when sensing to a certain extent, can we begin to try to intake.

This is to draw qi into the body.

Once we reach the Qi-Intake period, it is divided into seven realms.

There is no difference between the first six levels and the refining body period, the same is refining the skin to viscera, the difference is in the last level. What is done is not refining the veins, but opening them up, and from that moment on we enter the opening period.

The refining body period and the Qi-Intake period is essentially different. Refining body period is the purpose of refining the body through external means, a basic stage. The Qi-Intake phase is an internal refining method, which is to refine the body by controlling the spirit to enter the body. This is a high-level refining form that is completely unmatched by the external refining.

And the most important key of the Qi-Intake period is not refining, but through continuous practice to control the spirit in the body. Layer by layer controlling, from the control of the spirit refining to a masterful proficiency. It gets more and more difficult to control later on. First controlling the spirit flow to refine the skin. Then finally being able to control the spirit into the viscera and refining it. As long as this level of proficiency is reached, you can directly control the spirit to open the meridians, otherwise the spirit is charging violently in the meridians, the result is only to go into the demon state.

However, at this time the situation in the body is completely different. The spirit in the body automatically began to refine her body, and finally rushed into her meridians, causing her to be injured and vomit blood.

She wanted to control the body’s spirit, but was completely unable to grasp the spirit. The body’s spiritual force is still in accordance with its own inherent rhythm flowing in her body, into the first meridian, to impact the cartilage, resulting in Qin Shuang constantly spewing blood.

“Aunt Qin, princess, what’s wrong with her?” Qin Yunxia asked wailing.

“I need to be calm, I must be calm!”

Qin Ying forced herself to calm down, began to carefully observe Qin Shuang, slowly her face appeared a strange look.

“Aunt Qin, what’s wrong?”

“Princess she……seems to have entered the Qi-Intake phase……Wrong…… When I was in w.a.n.gdu, I saw the martial artist who drew the spirit in, and when they practiced, the spirit of heaven and earth would flow in s.p.a.ce and enter the body of the warriors. Yunxia, can you sense the flow of spirit aura?”

Qin Yunxia closed her eyes and felt it earnestly for a moment, then opened her eyes and shook her head: "I can’t feel it.”

“What’s going on here?” Qin Ying muttered to herself: “If the princess is not intaking qi into the body, then why refine the body, discharge impurities? It seems the princess is in the Qi-Intake stage, but why doesn’t heaven and earth spirit flow into her body?”

“Its weird!”

Qin Ying stood there anxiously pondering. Qin Shuang at this time gave a gentle sigh of relief, because she found that the impact of the cartilage in the veins by the spirit gradually because of consumption weakened. But at this time whether its the soul, or the body, Qin Shuang has reached the limit, and once the spirit hit the cartilage again, she fainted.

When she woke up again, she found herself lying on her bed. Her blood stains had been washed away, and she was wearing her undergarments. But she felt very weak, within her soul and physical weakness.

At this time she opened the eight layers of the sea of knowledge. She has been able to look within. She will control her consciousness into her body, and see the purple flame inside the crown wheel, but that flame is lilac. The heart of Qin Shuang cannot help but sigh. With a Martial G.o.d’s soul to ignite the flame, but only lit the lowest level of the purple flame. Her previous cultivation method caused her soul to not be pure enough. Can break through to the realm of the Martial G.o.d, all by virtue of her own qualifications and understanding.

Consciousness one by one swept through the seven spirits. She couldn’t help a bitter smile in her heart. No wonder she feels so weak, her spirit force is only three fine spider silk-like threads……..

Wrong!

Qin Shuang clearly remembers before pa.s.sing out, that the seven spirit force was only a single spider silk thinness, now it has become three spider silk-like threads.

It’s recovering!

After observing for a while, Qin Shuang finally understood. She saw the force of the seven spirits in a slow recovery. According to this recovery speed, within three days, the seven-spirit force of Qin Shuang will be fully restored.

Her heart settled down, and she began to check her body. She found that her body has changed again, become stronger, the body is also better. The body has no fat, she lost a bit, and gained a bit. And the height is also taller, has been close to a meter six-five appearance.

But……

She just felt weak, not in the soul, but physically weak, but the body has clearly become stronger ah?

“Gūlū lū……”

Her stomach grunted suddenly, and Qin Shuang suddenly realized that the weakness was hunger. When consuming the jade liquid cream, she must’ve been in a coma for a long time. Its because of hunger that she feels weakness.

"It’s a little bit of a struggle!”

The combination of soul and hunger weakness so that even turning the neck has exhausted the strength of her whole body. She turned to see Qin Ying and Qin Yunxia, two people sitting on the bedside stool, lying on the edge of her bed sleeping.

“Nai niang…….” Qin Shuang called out the two words with difficulty.

Although the sound is very small, simply like the sound of mosquitoes, but Qin Ying sat up, surprised to stare at Qin Shuang, a trembling call:

“Princess…”

Okay so far my understanding of the cultivation levels is this…

Refining body stage, namely refining the skin, flesh, muscle, tendon, bone, essence, internal organs and meridians.

Each one divided into early, middle, and late stage.

Then the Sensing/Sensation/Emotional/Feeling period. Sensing heaven and earth spirit, qi, energy, reiki, essence etc.

Then Qi-Intake/Induction Qi/ Introducing Qi/Drawing Qi/ Yǐn Qi —Drawing the qi within.

Then Opening/Connecting/Tōng Mài period. Opening or connecting the meridians/veins/pulse.

The slashes indicate the various other terms it could go by or be, not the cultivation stages. I might use other terms but I will usually try to stick with the same one. I’ll fill in the cultivation stages as we go on. These are just what Qin Shuang has touched on currently.
