Zhou Leng patted away the first falling round moon and started running.

He wasn't as strong as Guan Canglong.

The round moons continued to fall, rebounding from the Nine Mountains with ear-piercing whistling sounds one after another.

Zhou Leng ran and dodged, striking the round moons attacking him as much as possible.

Each time one was dodged, the evaded round moon would accelerate until it either collided or was patted away.

Zhou Leng was mentally tense, using all his strength to dodge and twist.

When the 54th round moon fell, a total of twenty-four round moons flew in from all directions.

Zhou Leng had nowhere to hide and was hit in the back by a round moon.

Bam...

Zhou Leng spat blood and lunged forward, the round moons in the sky dissipating, leaving only one floating quietly.

"Five Mountains. A total of seventeen mountains." Master Wu announced the result.

An invisible force flew over, and Zhou Leng was sent out of the Flying Moon Map.

Turning his head, he saw his name on the Flying Moon List.

First, Zhou Leng, Seventeen Mountains.

All other names disappeared.

Zhou Leng turned to look. Aside from Master Wu, all the transparent disciples were gone, including the sweet-voiced, round-faced senior sister.

It seemed like an illusion.

"Is it over?" Zhou Leng looked at Master Wu, feeling a faint regret in his heart.

Reaching seventeen mountains on the first attempt, with repeated practice, although still not as good as Guan Canglong and the others, he was sure to pass eighteen mountains.

"Didn't you feel it?" Master Wu asked.

"What?" Zhou Leng asked.

"The power of the True Qi White Moon."

Zhou Leng recalled carefully, speaking slowly: "The True Qi White Moon... seems a bit different, but, it's unclear."

"If it were that slightly older child, he might have already sensed the difference in the True Qi White Moon. Rest for a while, reflect on the experience in the Flying Moon Map, learn from it, and you can re-enter."

"You can keep entering?" Zhou Leng asked.

"Of course. First come, first served, line up in turns." Master Wu said.

Zhou Leng thought of the hundreds outside, even if each person took ten minutes, it would take more than two days to have another turn.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he manipulated his Qi to heal and recover his True Qi.

Once rested, he reflected on the previous experience.

"True Qi White Moon..."

Slowly, Zhou Leng detected the unique aspects of the True Qi White Moon.

The changes of True Qi on the moon's surface were very peculiar, even faintly mystical.

Beyond that, it was hard to perceive.

"Disciple wishes to enter again."

"You may do so by yourself."

Zhou Leng stepped into the Flying Moon Map.

This time, he did not rush to act but closed his eyes, cradling the moon with his arms, using all his strength to sense the True Qi White Moon.

True Qi flowed out from his fingertips like fine Qi serpents, wandering over the surface of the True Qi White Moon.

Zhou Leng suddenly realized this True Qi White Moon was a treasure for training the projection of True Qi.

Humans also had it, but surely not as exquisite and mystical as this.

Below the Innate, True Qi could only cover a thin layer on the skin surface, allowing limited changes.

After reaching the Innate, the True Qi became exceptionally powerful, with increased projection distance, and could even enhance the projected power by altering the structure of True Qi.

An Innate Master's True Qi became their weapon.

Zhou Leng was mentally invigorated, fully focused on sensing the flow of True Qi on the surface of the round moon.

With Martial Arts perception, combined with the True Qi round moon, he could almost "see" the flow of True Qi, something impossible during regular True Qi projection training.

Once True Qi left the body, the degree of perception greatly diminished, requiring at least a Grandmaster's "Qi Transformation of the Whole Body" level to perceive clearly.

Zhou Leng no longer used the round moon to hit the Nine Trees, fully focusing on sensing changes on the surface of the round moon.

At the same time, he found the surrounding True Qi to be extremely rich.

This perception lasted a full day and night.

Most of the time, he could not understand the lower part of "Star Gazing Technique" he had learned earlier.

Now, combined with the True Qi White Moon, he quickly grasped many details of True Qi projection.

Zhou Leng was confident that once he ascended to the Innate, he could quickly project True Qi, unlike many Innate masters who needed months or even years.

The ability to project True Qi greatly influences the strength of Innate and even future Martial Artists.

Along with sensing True Qi projection, his perception of all aspects of True Qi also deepened gradually.

Zhou Leng saw Master Wu ignoring him, contentedly comprehending for three whole days and nights.

Tired, he slept in the Flying Moon Map.

The Spiritual Qi inside was denser than the Transmission Hall square, reaching some sort of limit.

Awaking from a sleep, Zhou Leng ran his fingers over his hand's back, sensing a strange feeling.

His skin was smoother and more elastic.

The powerful, coarse Giant Body now seemed to have a unique vitality.

With eyes closed, sensing, every cell in his body felt "dewy".

After careful sensing, he suddenly understood.

This was the phenomenon known as the "Spiritual Energy Limit" in legend.

Notes from some Grandmaster Martial Saints recorded such a situation.

In certain special places where Spiritual Qi accumulates continuously, unable to disperse, it eventually reaches the "Spiritual Energy Limit".

In such a place, during cultivation, True Qi gradually condenses into the body lacking True Qi, eventually filling every cell of the person with Spiritual Qi.

This Spiritual Energy Limit cannot currently be created by humans, as it requires many special conditions.

It can only typically be found in closed paradisiacal realms of many years.

Zhou Leng looked around and decided not to leave.

The Spiritual Energy Limit is a particularly unique state.

As one's muscles constantly endure the tearing of surpassing their limits, they continuously grow and strengthen.

The same goes for Spiritual Qi.

Now, every part of Zhou Leng's body is filled with the Spiritual Energy Limit.

This greatly enhances the body's capacity for storing, absorbing, and perceiving Spiritual Qi in all aspects.

Expanding the Dantian, widening the meridians, even nourishing the Martial Arts Will.

Feeling his body grow to its limit, Zhou Leng stood up, gathered his True Qi, and pushed both arms forward.

Boom...

True Qi surged forth, far more robust than before.

The full moon successively crashed through tree after tree, finally shattering the sixth and smashing into the trunk of the seventh before rolling back.

In just four days, an increase of one mountain.

The environment changed, transforming into the venue of the Flying Moon River.

This time, Zhou Leng had experience and consistently comprehended the release of True Qi, making the manipulation of the True Qi White Moon more adept.

The White Moon fell into the water, neither fast nor slow, flowing with the current.

The last time, the full moon swayed left and right in the water, but this time, it was incredibly steady.

Master Wu stood outside the Flying Moon Cauldron, his eyes slightly widening.

"This young man, his True Qi manipulation level seems to have reached the standard of an excellent disciple, perhaps even approaching the level of the three…"

Inside the Flying Moon Map, Zhou Leng steadily controlled the full moon, passing through mountain after mountain.

Once more at the rapids following the Seventh Mountain, the full moon descended steadily, unwavering and unhurried, like a fighter jet pilot on a merry-go-round.

The full moon easily surpassed the Eighth Mountain, reaching the Ninth Mountain, commencing the climb on the Pan Mountain River.

Zhou Leng's technique was sufficient, but he was unfamiliar with this environment.

The full moon encountered various unexpected situations, like whirlpools suddenly enlarging, giant waves suddenly shifting, the entire mountain shaking, or even the river breaking, forcing it to jump.

Eventually, before the Ninth Mountain, the full moon fell.

Outside, Master Wu stroked his beard.

"Crossing the Ninth Mountain of the Flying Moon River is merely a matter of time for him. It seems I underestimated him before."

"His True Qi manipulation level might even catch up to Shen Yunxian among the Three Sons of Ancient River."

"Not bad, not bad."

For the first time, Master Wu praised Zhou Leng's martial arts.

In the Flying Moon Map, surrounded by nine mountains, a hundred moons descended.

Zhou Leng once again dodged and parried numerous full moons.

But this time, he discerned the patterns.

Previously, hitting the full moon was random, but now he intentionally controlled the force, thereby affecting the rebound timing of the full moon.

To prevent more full moons from arriving simultaneously, resulting in unavoidable situations.

However, this requires extensive experience, which can only be accumulated gradually and cannot be achieved in a short time.

This time, he failed when the 63rd moon fell.

His results for the three tries were Six Mountains, Eight Mountains, and Six Mountains respectively.

Exiting the Flying Moon Map, he looked at the Flying Moon List.

First, Zhou Leng, Twenty Mountains.

"You can go to the Innate Pavilion or continue cultivating. The Flying Moon Map is very important, involving… never mind, you're from a primitive civilization, unable to enter, so it's useless to say."

Zhou Leng said: "In the Flying Moon Map, I encountered some questions, please, Master Wu, clarify them."

"Speak."

Zhou Leng expressed his doubts one by one, most of which Master Wu resolved, but for some particular issues, he left Zhou Leng to understand on his own.

After clearing his doubts, Zhou Leng opened the Martial Arts City app, recording his martial insights in the newly established "Ancient River" notebook.

He began reading the Ancient River notes from the beginning, deepening his understanding of certain areas.

An idea surfaced in Zhou Leng's mind, to once more review the notes and identify several absolutely correct insights.

Reverse translation.

Convert Chinese characters to Divine Text.

Since directly reading the Divine Text of the Star Gazing Technique could enhance cultivation effects, if one could directly memorize insights in Divine Text, the cultivation effects would undoubtedly be stronger.

Enter the Flying Moon Map and begin creating Divine Text.

"First, establish the semantics..."

"Then construct the surface text..."

"After that, assemble six surface texts into a cube..."

"Finally, perform grammatical rotation..."

Previously, Zhou Leng used Divine Text by intention, similar to speaking colloquially, even though many parts were incorrect or stammered into fragmented surface texts, Master Wu could still understand.

It's like when children speak, often blurting single words, even mispronunciations are understood by adults.

But to construct complete Divine Text, one must grasp all details of the Divine Text, any mistake leads to its collapse.

Zhou Leng built the Divine Text step by step.

Initially, he frequently failed during the process of forming surface texts.

Before long, he made some progress, successfully forming the surface texts, and began constructing the cube text.

Unfortunately, attempt after attempt, each was like a shoddy construction, all ended in failure.

Master Wu immediately saw what Zhou Leng was trying to do and gently shook his head.

"This young man probably doesn't realize that conversational Divine Text, regular Divine Text, and cultivation Divine Text are entirely different concepts."

"In high-level civilizations, any child can do the former, regular Divine Text can be created haphazardly, but cultivation Divine Text endures perpetually, even eternally, requiring profound cultivation and a strong foundation in Divine Text, which is difficult for an average Void God."

"Genuine cultivation Divine Text utilizes at least one star as a 'base.' Each word of the Star Gazing Technique contains the power of a sun..."

Ultimately, Zhou Leng realized he could not create it and had to give up, continuing to comprehend True Qi White Moon and cultivate in the Flying Moon Map filled with the Spiritual Energy Limit.

Before seeing the Three Sons of Ancient River, Zhou Leng thought that the Martial Arts Index limit for the Qi Blood Realm Vitality Stage was 12.

Witnessing the strength of the Three Sons of Ancient River, he realized that was only the limit on Blue Star.
