Overco Obstacles

Li Chengfeng took a oing straight ahead His decision coincided with his ideology — once you are committed to a path, you must stick to it until the end!

Or, to put it simply, once you had chosen a path for yourself, you must finish it even if it h!

After passing the crossroad, Li Chengfeng noticed that the road did not contain as many co and a staircase that seemed to be endless He didn't kno many steps he had taken on these stairs, even less so about the ti

The sweat on Li Chengfeng's body had already evaporated at this point; it made him look like he was shrouded intoday's climb, his body would reach a critical point He had started to feel unbelievably exhausted, but he knew he had to persevere! After breaking his critical point, his body's performance would enter into a brand new phase

As he continued to cli could feel his body shaking frora into the ground, and it was getting harder and harder to lift them

Before, Li Chengfeng always felt a sense of achievement when he passed his competitors one by one But noith no one to co of eue

Li Chengfeng gritted his teeth and continued his cliht to himself, ‘Could this be a way for the test to tell us that once we reach a specific phase in cultivation, ould not be co with others anymore? Our competition afterwards would be none other than ourselves? Or could the test be trying to tell us that once we reach a specific stage in cultivation, this would be how itof emptiness and pain?'

Li Chengfeng's analysis was spot on! It was indeed the core objective of the first challenge The road to cultivation was no bed of roses; it was a long and rocky road ahead As one began the cultivation path, in the beginning, they would have to face ure out how to stand out ast the sea of coure out on their own

However, as one had cultivated to a particular stage, using others as a means of reference or motivation would be unsuitable This was because they ultimately had to face themselves, as the only ones they had to surpass eventually were themselves

After Li Chengfeng continued to climb two hundred steps an to feel light-headed His body shook like a leaf as his chest felt like there was a giant boulder crushi+ng it, suffocating him

Li Chengfeng gritted his teeth once again and continued to cli froh his body The fatigue, shakiness, and pain he felt suddenly disappeared as his entire body felt light and mobile!

Li Chengfeng knew that he had overcoe and had a breakthrough at his critical point He was successfully entering a stage where he could utilise his Yuan Qi

The huy, blood, breath, and true yuan stored within it The energy that one usually depletes coe box; this can be represented by physical strength But once that part has been wholly overdrawn, the utilisation of the inner portion of the storage box begins The inner portion represents a human's very essence: Yuan Qi

To utilise this part of the hu all of an entire household's savings The a these stores will not be easy in the future

But this is where the miracle of the human body comes in If a person had wholly depleted their yuan qi, and if they were to replenish it back, this person's Yuan Qi would be far more vital than before Their foundation would becoans, muscles, and bones would be hardier and more robust

As this process continues back and forth, the body shall be strengthened and trained Hence, the physical body becomes a crucible of transformation

After Li Chengfeng had h frohter His body quickly h four thousand ruer to eat and drink

At this h to shock the masses His face was as red as a! His sweat had thoroughly soaked his shi+rt too He had already climbed over ten thousand stone steps at this point, but yet, at such a height, he still couldn't feel even one gush of wind fros!

Chengfeng thought that it was odd, but he did not dwell much on it He carefully chewed his dried ulp of water After a quick rest, he continued with his journey

This time, he had climbed until the sky turned dark; only then he stopped in his tracks Yet the s i almost fell on the side of the road, but he quickly stabilised his body fro He turned his back to see as behind him, and he saw a road so steep it looked as if it was descending to darkness

Could it be that when a person had cultivated to a particular stage and was to fail, they would drop to their lowest as well?
