Slowly putting down the scroll in his hand, Zhou Chen leaned back on the wooden chair, his eyebrows gradually frowning.

After comparing all kinds of information around him, Zhou Chen has also figured out a general idea of this world.

The water in this world is very turbid.

Even with Zhou Chen's current cultivation strength of the Yuan Shen Manifestation, he was just a slightly more powerful ant in this world.

In this world, there are two ways to practice.

One is martial arts, and the other is Taoism.

Martial arts is about strengthening the body and transcending the way of life and death.

The world is like a sea of suffering, and the flesh is like a raft across the sea.

If the body is strong, it can carry people to the other side of the bitter sea.

Although the method of Taoism is also exquisite, it is the method of crossing the sea of suffering and transcending the law of life and death.

However, the practice of Taoism is that the sea of suffering is boundless, and the physical body will eventually decay, and only the soul is strong.

Therefore, you can abandon your physical body, concentrate on the power of the divine soul, and eventually swim to the other side of the bitter sea.

These two methods of cultivation are the most fundamental methods of cultivation in the Daqian Dynasty and even in this world.

In the archives of the Hanlin Academy of the Great Qian Dynasty, Zhou Chen saw some records.

It is said that when the Daqian Dynasty was first established in the past, two classics, the "Tao Jing" and the "Wu Jing", were compiled to explain the two ways of practicing martial arts and Taoism.

To this end, the Daqian Dynasty collected the entire world of books and filled the entire country's treasury.

At the beginning, there were thousands of people who compiled the classics together, and there were countless martial arts masters and cultivators who gathered to participate in it.

It is a pity that since the compilation of these two classics was completed, it has not been a few years since the Great Qian Dynasty immediately banned engraving.

At the same time, the Daqian Dynasty collected the "Tao Jing" and "Wu Jing" that had been printed from the people again and burned them all in one fell swoop.

Anyone who is in possession of these two texts will be guilty of a felony.

Immediately afterwards, the Daqian Dynasty again flaunted the slogan of "upholding people's hearts and abandoning heresies" and repeatedly collected books from folk temples and overhauled classics.

But since then, there have been no books on cultivation such as the Martial Classics and the Tao Sutras.

On the contrary, all of them have been replaced with scriptures such as benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, righteousness and loyalty.

It's just that Zhou Chen, as the editor of the Hanlin Academy, can be regarded as a figure within the Daqian Dynasty, and he still has some opportunities to come into contact with some books on cultivation.

For example, the two classics "Tao Jing" and "Wu Jing" are naturally not qualified by Zhou Chen to come into contact with.

Even those secret methods related to Dao cultivation were not Zhou Chen's turn to take a look.

However, there are some books on martial arts practice, and Zhou Chen is still qualified to borrow them from the library.

For example, the scroll that Zhou Chen was holding in his hand, this was the one he borrowed, and there were books on the exposition of martial arts practice.

As mentioned in this book, the practice of martial arts is divided into seven realms: flesh training, tendon training, membrane training, bone training, viscera training, marrow training, blood exchange, and seven realms.

The entire content of the book does not record the slightest bit of fist and foot practice, but it does elaborate on the seven realms.

Meat training: As the foundation of martial arts practice, the whole body is trained to be strong and full, responsive, and can be besieged by two or three people.

The "martial arts hall" in the army of the Great Qian Dynasty called the warriors of such a realm as martial arts.

Tendon training: The whole body tendons are strong in expansion and contraction, the explosive power is fierce, the body is agile, and it can defeat six or seven people.

Such a warrior is also called a warrior in the army.

Membrane training: The whole body membrane is strong, resists blows, and with a force, the human skin is as tough as cowhide, and can be surrounded by dozens of people and can be defeated, such a warrior is called a samurai.

Bone training: The bones of the whole body are hard, the penetration force is strong, the body is more agile, the resistance is stronger, and the opponent can defeat hundreds of people, such a warrior is called a martial artist.

Dirty training: Through breathing and breathing, the internal organs are strong, the breathing is continuous and far-reaching, the physical strength is long, and the ability is almost nearly 1,000 people.

Walking as fast as a galloping horse, jumping as agile as a bird, such a warrior is called a congenital martial artist.

Practicing the marrow: The cultivation of boxing martial arts has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and such martial artists are called great masters.

Transfusion: After the bone marrow is strong, after entering the cultivation, the blood in the whole body is renewed.

The so-called training of the marrow is like frost, practice blood mercury slurry, rebirth, and cut the hair and wash the marrow.

Such warriors are all enemies of all people, and they are respected as saints in martial arts.

If it is based on the above seven realms, this world should not be worth mentioning at all for Zhou Chen.

However, Zhou Chen knew very well in his heart that these seven realms were just the most basic realms revealed by the Great Qian Dynasty.

On top of the realm of the Martial Saint, there is also a cultivation realm called Human Immortal.

Since this heavy realm can be stained with an immortal character, then the power possessed by people in this realm must be beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

For example, the first requirement for stepping into the realm of human immortals is that one's own martial arts will reach heaven and earth, sensing the sun, moon and stars.

In the end, it achieved a leakless body, with a lifespan of more than 200 years.

If you go further, you must also penetrate the points of the body and cultivate the powerful and terrifying physical powers.

At that time, it is not a problem to fly alone and swim in the turbulence of the void.

The fist intent can even be condensed into substance, breaking through infinite space, and being able to interfere with matter and time.

In the end, what flesh and blood are derived, blood is reborn, ever-changing, and so on, and so on, are not at all the existence of imagination that ordinary people can understand.

And this is not the top of the martial arts cultivation path, in the martial arts immortal record, there is even a realm called smashing the vacuum.

That kind of realm is no longer an existence that Zhou Chen can imagine.

If martial arts cultivation can reach such a terrifying realm along the way, then the Taoist cultivation that can be juxtaposed with it will definitely not be the slightest bit behind.

According to Zhou Chen's knowledge, this Dao cultivation method was indeed useless in the early stage.

However, the more you get to the later stages, the more terrifying the power you end up with.

What tears the void, snatches away rebirth, creates things in the void and other means.

These are all manifestations of the high realm of Taoist cultivation and the strength of the divine soul after reaching a certain level.

In this way, the water in this world is very turbid.

With Zhou Chen's current cultivation realm, it is impossible for him to make a little wave in it.

Of course, there are two sides to everything.

Although this world is very dangerous for Zhou Chen, as long as Zhou Chen can gain a foothold in this new world.

Then the benefits that Zhou Chen was able to get from it in the end were also incomparable to everything that all the worlds had superimposed before.

In short, it all depends on Zhou Chen's own plan.
