Matrix Survival: I Get A Random Chest Every Day

Chapter 1065 - 767: Three Dantian

"Hey!"

Zhan Zhouzhou approached Yan Jinjin and looked down at him: "Let me ask you, are you really a damn Cultivator?"

Yan Jinjin burst into anger: "I am indeed a Cultivator, but Cultivators are not damn!"

"Oh, quite the temper." Zhan Zhouzhou chuckled: "So tell me, how do you all cultivate?"

"I am a Nascent Soul master, and you, little girl, dare to be so presumptuous!" Yan Jinjin flew above Zhan Zhouzhou and looked down at her: "I see you have great potential, and would like to take you as my Closed-door Disciple to pass on to you the Golden Light Beidou Sword Technique. Are you willing to join my sect?"

Zhan Zhouzhou looked at him for a while, then turned to Li Zheng and asked: "Is he out of his mind?"

Li Zheng was silent: "I think so too."

"Then there’s no point in asking him." Zhan Zhouzhou couldn’t bother dealing with Yan Jinjin any longer and turned to Li Zheng: "Didn’t you squeeze a cultivation technique out of him? How much do you remember? Recite it for me."

Li Zheng, with fresh memory of the cultivation technique he recently heard, recited it in detail for Zhan Zhouzhou, causing Yan Jinjin’s face to turn green.

It was a complete cultivation technique!

Were they actually teaching it to others so casually?

In Yan Jinjin’s homeland, this was considered utterly blasphemous.

A crime punishable by the sect’s penalty!

"Energy Introduction... Dantian...?" Zhan Zhouzhou listened to the cultivation technique Li Zheng recited, contemplating: "Did he say the Dantian is located three inches below the navel?"

"Yes." Li Zheng nodded, saying: "But according to his method, I couldn’t find the so-called Dantian. He even tried to locate it himself but couldn’t find it either, saying I didn’t have a Dantian."

"Hmm." Zhan Zhouzhou said: "You’re different from us; you’re a clone. So your suspicion of not having a Dantian might be a unique case. Want to try if I can sense your Dantian?"

"Smart." Li Zheng nodded.

"I can tell you clearly, I have a Dantian, but it’s not three inches below the navel." Zhan Zhouzhou raised her hand and forcefully pointed at the connection of Li Zheng’s chest and abdomen, saying: "It’s here!"

"Here is the Dantian?" Li Zheng was surprised: "Isn’t this the place where Genetic Force is accumulated? Moreover, the novels say the Dantian is three inches below the navel, just like Yan Jinjin said..."

"This is the Middle Dantian."

Zhan Zhouzhou explained: "When I was very young, I saw an ancient book at the Martial Arts Association president’s house that divided the body’s Dantian into three places: the Lower Dantian three inches below the navel, the Middle Dantian between the chest and abdomen, and the Upper Dantian at the crown of the head."

"Three Dantians?" Li Zheng was stunned: "What differences are there?"

"There are."

Zhan Zhouzhou carefully recalled, though the memory was somewhat vague due to time: "I remember the ancient book mentioned that our original three Dantians were in an open state: the Lower Dantian refines Qi, the Middle Dantian refines ’Essence,’ and the Upper Dantian refines ’Spirit.’

Thinking about it now, the Lower Dantian coincides with the Immortal Cultivation Technique described by Yan Jinjin. The reason we’ve not found the existence of the Lower Dantian might be because our ancestors haven’t practiced it for a long time, and it was discarded during evolution.

As for the ’Essence’ refined by the Middle Dantian, I suspect it is something akin to Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi generated within the body, which is Genetic Force.

And the Upper Dantian is simple; our Spiritual Realm is the Upper Dantian, refining Spiritual Power."

"Absurd!" Yan Jinjin sneered: "Ignorant little girl, blindly believing dubious and unorthodox ways. I have cultivated for over five hundred years, and never heard of the three Dantians. We Cultivators are born only with a Dantian and Purple Mansion Palace, where’s the Middle Dantian? Do you think you’re those Body Refining Demon Cultivators?"

"Shut up!"

Zhan Zhouzhou was furious at Yan Jinjin’s insult, instantly summoning the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword and slashing down.

"You can use magic?!" Yan Jinjin exclaimed, dodging, realizing something was amiss, and corrected himself: "No, this is a Dao Image!"

This realm is becoming increasingly strange; they can actually manipulate Dao Images?!

But this Dao Image seems...

A bit weak?

Li Zheng and the others didn’t understand the cultivation technique Yan Jinjin explained, and Yan Jinjin couldn’t comprehend the strength they displayed.

Despite not cultivating, they possess formidable Primordial Spirits.

Now they’re even using a Dao Image similar to the Star Palace’s technique, it’s truly weird and wonderful!

Perhaps this realm is truly my great Opportunity?!

Yan Jinjin recalled being heavily beaten by the Star Palace disciple, extremely yearning for Dao Images.

If he could understand their method of using Dao Images and learn their cultivation techniques for the Primordial Spirit, combine the three, even the mere Celestial Tribulation would be insignificant!

"Wait!" Li Zheng stepped forward to stop Zhan Zhouzhou from slashing, asking Yan Jinjin: "Are you saying Genetic Ability is a Dao Image?"

If he remembered correctly, Yan Jinjin mentioned this thing before.

"Correct! I wouldn’t mistake this; it’s a Dao Image!" Yan Jinjin, now dropped his subordinate tone, cautiously defended against Zhan Zhouzhou, fearing she’d again wield her sword against him.

"I don’t understand Star Palace’s cultivation methods, but after I defeat... uh, defeated that Star Palace disciple, I specifically studied it."

So-called Dao Images are derived from insights gained in peculiar "scenes" in the world, then imprinted deep within the body, forming Dao Images.

When confronting an enemy, activating the Dao Image enables one to manifest the "Dao" perceived from the "scene."

However, the power of Dao Images varies based on the level of insight.

Some can derive world-ending Heavenly Fire Dao Images from burning campfires, while others can only perceive a flame.
