Chapter 0089: The Star Sun Heart Sutra

Qin Yun possesses a dual martial spirit, hence he is capable of cultivating two Inner Elements.

Within his Zijin Fire Inner Element, there is also a black oscillating Inner Element, akin to a core nestled at the heart of the fire.

At that moment, a white mist was flowing over the surface of the black Inner Element.

This is Qin Yun, who has just cultivated.

"What is this thing, could it be a special kind of energy?"

He focused his mind to summon the white mist.

Incredibly, the white mist suddenly rushed out of the Inner Element and entered his golden heart.

Then, a white mist, like a dancing white ribbon, slowly rose from his chest.

It can grow extremely long, reaching over ten meters in length.

"My sense of spiritual energy is becoming clearer and clearer; it seems that this white band of light can enhance one's perception of it!"

Qin Yun felt a surge of secret joy, then attempted to control the ribbon of light, piercing through the walls of the Tianxing Tower, and to his surprise, it went through in an instant!

The moment that band of light left, he felt as if he had suddenly transitioned from a place with foul air to a fragrant forest in the mountains.

At last, he sensed that long-lost aura of spiritual energy!

Qin Yun himself could hardly believe it; after his internal energy cultivation had reached an extraordinary level, it had such miraculous power.

He gazed at the white band of light, his heart pounding with excitement: "I remember a book once recorded that when internal energy cultivation reaches a state of transcendence, it can give birth to spiritual power... simply called the 'Inner Element'!"

"The cultivation of internal energy reaches a state of transcendence, manifesting as the Inner Element, which can then depart from the physical body?"

Even with Yang Shiyue's mastery of the martial arts, she had never reached the realm of transcendence, so her understanding in this area was also limited.

The divine spirit effortlessly pierced through the impenetrable walls, voraciously absorbing the Nine Suns' spiritual energy from outside.

Qin Yun's two Inner Elements were breathing frantically, absorbing spiritual energy as if gulping down water, to refine and transform it.

It was not until late at night, when the Nine Suns Qi grew sparse, that he awoke.

In the midst of the setting of the Nine Suns, the spiritual energy gradually becomes sparse; even if one's spirit ventures out, it can hardly absorb much of the essence.

Just as he was about to retract his spirit, he suddenly sensed a peculiar form of energy.

"What kind of energy is this? It seems like the Nine Suns Qi, yet it's different! Outside, it's the dead of night, could it be the power of the moon? No, that can't be right either, my teacher possesses the Moon Martial Spirit; the moon Qi isn't like this!"

After shaking his head, he suddenly thought of another possibility.

Starlight essence!

Nighttime is when countless stars emerge.

Although there are stars during the day, they are obscured by sunlight, making them invisible and their starlight essence undetectable.

"Lan Xiao's ancestral technique!" Qin Yun suddenly recalled the obscure mantra.

Star Meditation, Sun Observation, Mind Solidification, Spirit Concentration on Heart Stars!

"Star Meditation can be understood as meditating with the stars. Sun Observation means observing the sun. Observing what? The stars? Could it be that the starlight is related to the sun? That would make it another form of essence. Mind Solidification refers to a firm mind, while Spirit Concentration on Heart Stars suggests concentrating one's spirit into stars?"

He felt he was about to grasp something but couldn't quite pinpoint the key.

"Meditate, absorb the power of the Nine Suns, and condense stars. A firm mind is needed to concentrate the spirit into stars."

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and used his primordial spirit to absorb starlight essence.

"Nine Suns refine the body, stars refine the spirit! In the chaotic universe, the star soul illuminated by the Nine Suns self-meditates, cultivating the spirit, and condensing the heart into stars."

"The starlight is the pure spiritual energy refined from the star's absorption of the Nine Suns' essence. Directly absorbing starlight essence refines the spirit without needing the Nine Suns' essence!"

After absorbing starlight essence through his primordial spirit, Qin Yun became even more certain of his understanding.

"Sun refines the body, stars refine the spirit. The complementation of star and sun can be called the Star-Sun Scripture! I am currently practicing the 'star refines the spirit' section, while the other part should be the 'sun refines the body' section."

Qin Yun felt his spirit growing stronger and secretly rejoiced.

The people of the Blue Spirit Star Palace truly gave him an unparalleled inner cultivation technique.

Qin Yun thought with a smile, "Perhaps due to the passage of time, the way Lan Xiao, the Martial King, recorded the technique differs from today's methods, making it harder to understand."

"It's also possible that mastering inner cultivation techniques to perfection is not easy, so the disciples of the Blue Spirit Star Palace have failed to comprehend these two mantras over the years."

He could not fully understand it either, only roughly grasping the direction.

And such concise mantras are meant to lead one in, leaving the rest to personal interpretation and insight, paving one's own martial path.

This way, everyone can develop unique martial arts, leading to a rich variety of martial techniques over the years.

After a night of practice, his spiritual strength increased significantly, and the condensation of soul scriptures was within reach.

During the day, he looked at the mantras for the sun refining the body in the Star-Sun Scripture, which were slightly longer than those for star refining the spirit.

"Nine Suns vary, myriad divine abilities, Yang spirit flying souls, divine abilities entering the body." He was confused, repeatedly reciting them, finding them less difficult to understand than the night practice, yet lacking direction.

By noon, he had made no progress and decided to stop.

"This might require a certain moment of sudden enlightenment, like last night, needing a trigger." After realizing this, Qin Yun stopped worrying and set it aside, letting everything happen naturally.

Now, being able to comprehend the Star Refining Spirit is already considered an immense gain.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Yun had spent half a month in the Tianxing Tower.

Ever since he comprehended the Star Refining Spirit, every night he would release his primordial spirit to draw in stellar essence for cultivating his mind, a practice that had continued for over ten days.

Above the Tianxing Tower, the stars were like a vast sea, their light shimmering calmly and beautifully.

Inside the Tianxing Tower, Qin Yun could not see the dazzling starry sea, but through his primordial spirit, he could clearly sense the boundless and mysterious expanse of stars.

Every time he had this sensation, his heart would invariably be stirred.

For he felt that before the vast ocean of stars, he was as insignificant as dust, a mere grain in the vast sea, a sense of humility and powerlessness would surge within him, evoking a strange melancholy, making one want to retreat.

Whenever such emotions arose, he always managed to fortify his resolve, resisting this intangible blow, and continued to draw in stellar essence.

Since childhood, he had endured numerous trials, forging an incredibly firm will, believing that through effort, he could challenge fate!

The mantra mentions "steadfast heart."

The more one cultivates, the more one feels the terror of the star sea, all to resist the overwhelming might of the ancient star ocean.

"My heart is like a star!" Qin Yun opened his eyes, his gaze flashing like two brilliant stars.

He had finally cultivated the Soul Scripture!

The Soul Scripture, like a river of twinkling stars, connected with the tiny stars within his golden heart and brain.

"Spirit transformed into stars, I succeeded!"

Everything around him was very dark, but under the powerful influence of his mind, even the smallest grains of sand were captured with perfect clarity!

Not only had he cultivated the Soul Scripture, but following the Stellar Heart Scripture, he had also transformed his spirit into stars, indicating that his spiritual strength would far surpass that of others.
