What is consciousness? And what is substance?

That was a problem of philosophy in Junior Leopard's previous life, but now it reverted to a realistic problem in this new world.

When everything returned to reality, there would be only one question left: ”What is consciousness and what is divine thought?”

Frankly speaking, divine thoughts meant that you were strong enough to feel your consciousness.

But the explanation was too simple and it could not describe precisely what divine thoughts meant.

And there was another concept before learning about divine thoughts, which was Qi Power.

In Junior Leopard's previous life, people would always say that somebody had a strong Qi Power, and in fiction, the authors would also write that the character had a kind of Aura that made him or her well respected. And one thing for sure was that these descriptions were all used for shaping experts and high-level officials.

But what about things in reality?

Junior Leopard had also met with countless officials in his previous life, including province governors and party secretaries. He actually could not feel any kind of Qi Power however when they stood face to face in front of him. So he concluded that the so-called Qi Power was merely an attitude that they had gotten used to as they had been in the boss's position for too long. Qi Power, in Junior Leopard's eyes, was more like something made up in fiction. It was a figure of speech, an exaggeration. It was nonsense that some people could particularly develop an exceptional Qi Power while others could not. We were all human after all.

When he came to this brand new world, Junior Leopard got to know martial arts skills. Gradually, he had an understanding of martial arts. After delving further, Junior Leopard understood that this thing, Qi Power, existed in this world.

Anybody practicing martial arts would have Qi Power at the same time when he or she had practiced Internal Qi successfully. The only thing was that Qi Power was tiny, to begin with. It was similar to a small flame, which could also affect the airflow all around. It was difficult to be noticed unless you sensed it by heart.

Once one's cultivation had reached a certain state, his or her Internal Qi circulating in the body would be able to affect the airflow around even though Internal Qi was not let out. The surroundings would be changed accordingly. It was just like what was happening on Junior Leopard at present. As the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique was activated, the air would also be heated, as if warmed up by an everlasting flame.

But this was not Qi Power, or it should be put as this was not the real Qi Power!

The real Qi Power would also mix some consciousness inside while Internal Qi was in function.

And consciousness was also an abstruse concept, it was not visible nor was it tangible, but it existed in the world. A simple example could explain that. Those were the days when revolution swept across China and both heroes and anti-heroes arose. But why were there both of them?

When faced with the same punishment, some would survive, while some could not. This was a matter of willpower. As some had a strong willpower, while some did not.

But in Junior Leopard previous life, what was willpower would simply remain as willpower however strong it was, invisible and intangible.

In this world, however, things were different. The moment one had practiced his first string of Internal Qi, it would be imprinted with his own consciousness.

And why was that?

Just think what Internal Qi relied on to circulate in your body. It relied on your consciousness.

Qi moved with consciousness and also left with it. Qi was an inseparable part of one's consciousness at the beginning when it was born.

The process of practicing was, in itself, actually difficult. Either enhancing one's body or condensing one's Internal Qi was all a process that tested one's willpower. Even for Junior Leopard, what he had accomplished so far also originated from hundreds of thousands of pains and bitterness.

Therefore, the better one's cultivation was and the stronger one's consciousness was, so was one's willpower stronger.

When one's willpower was strong enough to a certain phase it would undergo a quantitative change.

And the change was that divine thoughts would be born!

It was an illusory concept--the nature of divine thoughts was consciousness. When one noticed the existence of this intangible and invisible consciousness and could also control it, it would become divine thoughts.

Then as divine thoughts successfully got combined with one's Internal Qi, another mysterious concept would be born.

Fist Intent

Sword Intent

Saber Intent

Cudgel Intent!

The so-called intent was, in fact, materialized Qi Power.

A bigger qualitative change would be undergone as divine thoughts combined with a very strong Internal Qi. At that time, one's Qi Power would be materialized and intent would be born.

Intent was mysterious and odd at the same time.

Not only did it require divine thoughts, but it also relied on one's luck and savey. A good fortune was also indispensable.

Even a Level Nine expert could not own ”intent” without having good chance and savey. He could own magnificent Qi Power like mountains, mighty Qi Power like oceans, and devastating Qi Power like earthquakes, but ”intent” was not something he could easily obtain.
