Chapter 465: The Unity of Man and Nature; Entering the Sixteen-star Level!

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Martial dao, a universal nature, contained too many things.

The shackles of the mind could sometimes become the biggest obstacle to the advancement of martial dao.

Therefore, these simple two words, “put down”, had become a necessary sentiment for many martial artists. It wasn’t ‘get and forget’, but a spiritual letting go.

Qin Fen’s Godly Fists did not need to “put down”, but because of Asura Fenghua Danyun’s business, there was still a burden when facing Song Jia.

God is fearless! There was no saying of picking up or letting go of it. Once there was a burden, God was no longer God and Godly Fists was naturally no longer Godly Fists.

The three stories, which were almost identical in content but completely different in ending, were very short but they were like a key, opening the shackles that had always troubled Qin Fen all this while.

In a flash, Qin Fen looked at the black sky filled with stars like eternal diamonds, which had shone for billions of years. The opened soul expanded and extended unlimitedly as if following the sky of the universe, spread rapidly around the world. Just to understand all these mysteries of the universe which could not be understood by countless exhausted generations of ancestors.

The aura between the mountains, like the rivers flowing into the sea, bringing gusts of wind and blowing the greenery in the mountain with the sound of the swoosh. The aura rushed to Qin Fen’s body through his nostrils, ear canal, and other channels and entered into his body.

Papa…papa…papa…

In the quiet mountain, Qin Fen’s body and his skeletons gently rotated, the muscles contracted and relaxed forming a stream of spinning dragons in the air, enveloping his whole body. His body and clothes were moving under the air, like hundreds of flags flowing against the wind in the mountains.

Song Jia stood aside as her beautiful eyes flashed, she couldn’t help being surprised, “The unity of man and nature?”

Song Jia, who was born in the martial dao family, heard his grandfather Qilin Song Wendong saying that no one in this world could always be united with nature, even the divine beast martial artists couldn’t do it.

The so-called true unity of nature and man was a special state that would occasionally flash out under certain special circumstances plus various causes and conditions that came together.

The true unity of man and nature was a situation where one could mobilize the aura between the heaven and the earth and coordinate with the true energy of the body. The aura and the true energy of the body merged with each other and entered a special situation that was very mysterious and couldn’t be described by words.

Song Jia still remembered that Grandpa Qilin Song Wendong once said that the divine beast martial artists in the world should have entered the situation of the unity of man and nature more than once! Even the constellation warriors had entered the situation of the unity of man and nature!

The wind stopped in the blink of an eye. Qin Fen’s body recovered as usual. The vegetation in the mountains was asleep, as if what just happened hadn’t happened.

The expansion was short-lived and the extension was also an instant thing. The unity of man and nature had already left the body of Qin Fen in the blink of an eye.

Qin Fen regained his mind and his heart was filled with a feeling of unclearness. The existence of the heart lock accompanied by the feelings of a lot of martial dao was subconsciously and quietly buried.

With the opening of the soul shackles at this moment, the buried feelings of a lot of martial dao were then suppressed and spread. The bright and open heart coincided with the broad and boundless sky.

Recalling carefully, it was not just the spiritual spirit expanding limitlessly. The whole body seems to expand rapidly in an instant, as if to break or merge with the endless sky.

Everything seemed to be a dream, it was a feeling of nothingness. Qin Fen held tightly onto his hands. The true aura shield that came from his body was such a stunning and surging power, it was as if he had the ability to smash the mountains in a simple wave of a hand.

Song Jia gazed at Qin Fen and found that the pair of eyes darker than obsidian had a faint flash that was different from usual. The temperament was a little different from the feeling of coma before the battle. Standing in the middle of the grass, he seemed to be completely integrated with the grass that would not express emotions.

Qin Fen clenched his fingers into fists with a baffled expression and some delight.

Great! The fifteen-star level martial dao master, while accompanying his lover to walk in the mountains, had the tangled shackles in his heart open up because of his lover’s words. In this inexplicable strange state, his strength successfully promoted to the sixteen-star level.

Hard training for many days, a series of fierce battles and even having watched a super battle of the century, the super-explosive battle between Master and the divine beast Qilin Song Wendong, did not upgrade the martial dao. To his surprise, the three stories and words from his lover made his strength and star level upgrade.

Sixteen-star level! Any new martial dao master that entered the fifteen-star level dreamed of a new star level! Qin Fen initially thought that it would still take some time to reach the strength of star level, which was unexpectedly achieved in this blink of an eye.

Unexpected! Too unexpected! There was a somewhat self-deprecating smile hung over Qin Fen’s lips. This time, he had originally come to propose marriage, he did not expect to have seen a super battle of the century.

The vast study of martial arts, huge experience, and understanding, had been an unexpected harvest. Entering the sixteen-star level was only just a matter of time. But he never thought that because of the words of his lover, he would enter the sixteen-star level.

“This is…” Qin Fen gently moved his hands and forearms. The curiosity in his eyes couldn’t be concealed. The feeling just now was so strange. It was only a matter of moments, but he felt like he spent a few months in that flash.

Song Jia gave Qin Fen a fleeting kiss on his cheeks and opened her palms in front of Qin Fen, “Congratulations, you have just entered the state of the unity of man and nature. Congratulations, congratulations, shall I get a red envelope to share?”

“The unity of man and nature?” Qin Fen raised his eyebrows. He was not unfamiliar with these words. In the past, when he watched the master martial artists fighting in a fierce battle, it always gave people a feeling of obscurity, especially the extreme punch. It was just like the real unity of man and nature.

“The unity of man and nature is something that depends on luck.” The degree of happiness on Song Jia’s face was greater than Qin Fen who entered the unity of man and nature. Her eyes were full of sweetness, “Grandpa says that the unity of man and nature need a lot of factors to gather together, plus a little luck and coincidence. Only that gives you a chance to step into that state.”

Qin Fen took Song Jia by the hand and sat on the grass looking up at the black sky listening to the Qilin’s granddaughter’s description, “Grandpa says that the unity of man and nature is a very strange state. Although it’s just a moment, some people feel like it’s been a few months and some people even feel like they have spent a few years. There are people who feel like they have spent decades. Grandpa says that he is able to enter the realm of the beast due to the unity of man and nature. That period of one in a thousand second is like a long hundred years…”

There was a state of reminiscent in Song Jia’s beautiful eyes. She held her chin with one hand, “Grandpa says that martial artists will rarely break out at a critical juncture. The huge pressure is not really the key to making people’s strength soar. Otherwise, those martial artists would simply jump off a cliff.”

Qin Fen nodded lightly and very much agreed with the words of Song Wendong. He had experienced a lot of things along the way of martial dao and most of which was the battle of life and death.

People could come into realization in life and death situation but the sentiment was still sentiment, it could not be instantly transformed into the strength of star level. If it was really easy, people would simply just put themselves in between life and death, then the strength of star level would soar non-stop.

A round of battle between two-star level martial artists was over. Because of life or death, it finally became two divine beasts fighting, was this possible?

There would be a burst of strength in the battle. Even more than that was the ultimate integration of all the spirits of the heart and skills, to give the strongest punch of oneself but not break through to become a higher star level.

“The sudden increase in strength of the star level is rare but not impossible.” Song Jia’s expression was very serious, “That is the unity of man and nature. Entering the state of the unity of man and nature from the battle, it will naturally lead to a rapid outbreak of strength. Grandpa says that this kind of thing does exist. The most obvious example is the White Tiger that has died.”

“White Tiger?” Qin Fen recalled White Tiger’s overbearing mannerisms on the same day of battle at the seaside. Qilin Song Wendong was relatively gentle compared to him.

Divine beast! Qin Fen thought of White Tiger and then associated it with Song Wendong’s mannerism. He felt uncontainable bitterness that he could not utter. For the existence of the divine beast martial artists, you could be dissatisfied with his acting and even secretly swore behind him, but it won’t hinder their overbearing act’s development.

“I hear grandpa says that…” Song Jia leaned her head against Qin Fen’s shoulder and looked at the endless sky, “The reason why White Tiger could become a divine beast was that he suddenly entered the state of unity of man and nature as well as had a sudden increase and outbreak of star level in a crucial battle in his life.”

Qin Fen raised his hand to take Song Jia in his arms and gently kissed her forehead. He was glad that he could find such a good companion.

Without Song Jia, Qin Fen doubted that without the order of Song Wendong that made almost all of the strong and young martial artists of the same age in the entire Federation come challenge him and become the grindstones on his martial dao, would he still have the strength of a martial dao master?

Without Song Jia, Qin Fen knew that he would not have the opportunity to come and propose marriage. He would not have witnessed and felt the experience of Master fighting with the divine beast of the Earth, Qilin Song Wendong, in a remarkable battle.

Without Song Jia, there would be no opening of the shackles of his soul. Naturally, there would be no circumstance for the unity of man and nature. It was even more impossible for him to enter the situation of martial dao master of the sixteen-star level from the martial dao master of the fifteen-star level.

“You are one of the most important existences in my life.” Qin Fen gently bit Song Jia’s cherry lips and whispered in her ear, “If there are gods in the world, then you are the angel of my life. An angel that constantly brings me both trouble and good luck.”

Under the black sky, the two embraced each other in the grass. The moment of silence was replaced by a hot kiss.

Kiss, caress, push over…

Qin Fen looked at charming Song Jia under him. The beautiful eyes were as gentle as autumn ripples and as soft as water. Her white neck was more delicate in contrast to the grass.

Qin Fen looked at the seductive beauty under him and wanted to eat the beauty in a bite. A bitter smile that could not be described by words appeared at the corner of his mouth.

There were many annoying things in this world, but they weren’t as annoying as when four people suddenly volunteered to become the audience interrupting the intimacy between man and woman.

Qin Fen wondered if his good luck had all used up entering the unity of man and nature just now.

Otherwise, why would there suddenly be four martial dao master appearing nearby when he wanted to do further communication with his lover?

The four people who came forward didn’t hide their own breath. Qin Fen felt them very clearly across the distance. Although they didn’t really act as an audience, they could quickly become the audience who entered without buying the ticket.

There were hints of curiosity and confusion in Song Jia’s surprised beautiful eyes. Why did Qin Fen, who was so warm just now, suddenly look to the side with a bit of anger in between his eyebrows?

Under the black night sky, the green grass was slightly swaying because of a breeze. Four martial artists of various body shapes walked slowly towards them under the dark night sky.

Three men and one woman, the man who was walking on the very left was carrying a metal long stick in his hand. He looked like he was sliding rather than walking, as if the grass under his feet was butter. His figure was thin and short like a monkey.

Beside the thin man was a man whose body was the exact opposite of him. He was tall and fat with the arms almost the same thickness as the thighs of the thin man. The weapon in his hand was very rare, like a slender inverted triangle.

Qin Fen frowned slightly, the name of the weapon came to his mind at that moment: Iron Floating Pagoda! The slender inverted triangle was a floating pagoda built by metal. It was roughly estimated that the weight of this weapon was at least three hundred catty.

This weight, Qin Fen did not dare to confirm. With the rapid development of technology, there were many ways to purify metals. Some hard metals looked heavy but may be about ten or twenty catty.

Some metals seemed to be just a small piece but the weight might be hundreds of catty.

The current judgment was only on the appearance, the judgment of the weight of metal according to normal conditions.

The tall and strong body was steady and powerful when walking, his arms swinging like a transformer. He didn’t seem exhausted at all with the Iron Floating Pagoda in his hands.

The third martial artist was a woman. Her facial features were not overtly beautiful, they were just average. There was a cold temperament hiding in between her slender eyebrows. Her raised butt was faintly visible swinging to the left and right due to the long-term exercise of martial artists. The towering twin peaks showed her proud capital as a woman. The white warrior suit wore on her body undoubtedly gave the outline of her mature and sexy figure.

The last man with a regular figure not only had a red face, but the exposed skin on the rest of his body was also reddish. The hair on his head was like a burning flame, and the long eyebrows were also red. He looked like a humanoid flame from distant.

Qin Fen’s nose tip twitched several times. The last man brought a burning sensation along with the wind when walking towards him, as if to broil the air around his body into coke. But the grass under his feet was still blooming a lush green color without any sign of burning.

Song Jia sat up in the grass. Her eyes looked slightly irritated and her lips were pouted to a height where a soy sauce bottle could almost hang off of it, “Uncle Situ, Uncle Lian Wu Guang, Aunt Yao Guang, Uncle Chi, why are you here at this time?”

The three men and one woman saw Song Jia. There was a little embarrassment on their cheeks. As the elders of Qilin Sect, it could be said that the growth of Song Wendong’s granddaughter was under their eyes and that she was the apple of their eyes. It could be said that Song Jia was the most favored princess.

The faces of the three men and one woman all burned as they suddenly disturbed the little princess they loved coddling and cooing today.

Situ Nan, the one as slim as a monkey, took a step forward carrying the special metal rod. There was a helplessness in between his eyebrows, “Girl, we really don’t want to bother you at this time but this kid wants to marry you. Anyhow, we, the elder should evaluate him? Although the master has already evaluated him, we haven’t yet.”

Yao Guang stepped forward with coldness mixed in between her eyebrows, “Girl, we were all at different places and had just received the news that this kid came to propose marriage. We have watched you grow up. You are also our child in our eyes. We should choose this son-in-law well.”

“Why are you two talking so much nonsense?” The voice of Chi Lei with the scarlet body was husky, “Kid, we hear that you are very strong and that you are almost invincible among the martial artists of fifteen-star master level. You even managed to get Brother Qilin to play a drawn battle with you for so long, and the Qilin Peak is also destroyed due to the battle. People who have seen you fighting have said that they have learned a lot from you. The four of us are not so blessed, we did not manage to catch your battle. We have watched this girl grow up since she was a baby. The two reasons are mixed together. We are looking for you to spar today.”

Boom! The Iron Floating Pagoda in strong Lian Wu Guang’s hand stuck into the ground. Qin Fen felt that the ground under his feet was shaking slightly. The dull thud of the collision showed that the heavy weapon was more than just three hundred catty. It must’ve had at least five hundred catty estimating from the sound.

Song Jia stood next to Qin Fen with her hands on her slim hips and pouted her little mouth, “This skinny Uncle Situ, the rod is not just an ordinary rod. It is a weapon made of rare metals from Mars and Jupiter. Not only is it incomparable hard, there is also a high-voltage power of nearly ten thousand volts hiding within it. As long as the battle stagnates even a little due to the presence of electric shock, the victory or defeat will usually be decided. The Little Yaksha Rod Technique is a special skill among the fifteen-star level martial dao masters!”

“Uncle Lian Wu Guang, who doesn’t speak, makes lifting the heavy exquisite Iron Floating Pagoda in his hand look as if he was lifting something light. The weight is five hundred and seventy-something catty. It is also made of rare metals. The technology of production is very special. It has a special ability to break most of the body protecting true energy, the same as Uncle Situ’s weapon.”

“And this Uncle Chi, his internal force cultivation method uses the Magma Art of neo martial art. The temperature is almost higher than the real magma. The flame knife method of paleo martial arts he has can cut iron as if it was mud with just his bare hand. It’s not weaker than the real ironware or a treasured blade.”

“Aunt Yao Guang, you may not think she is very beautiful but she is gentle in her movements. Grandpa says that among the four people, she has the strongest potential and is the most promising person in regards to the development of potential. For this reason, Grandpa specifically helped her buy the Nine Yin Sutra, and he also combined the Nine Yin White Bone Claws with several kinds of Yin Claws, creating the Netherworld’s Ghost Claws which causes either death or wounds after being touched by even a little bit of it.”

The three men and one woman exchanged their bitter smiles with each other. Situ Nan couldn’t stop shaking his head and smiled bitterly, “It is hard to keep a woman at home. She favors an outsider instead of someone on her own side. She hasn’t married this kid yet she tells our backgrounds in detail to him.”
