CHAPTER 1091: CHAPTER 1091: SISTERS TRAINING TOGETHER

After Leng Ruobing left, Shen Yuancheng collapsed into his chair. At this moment, he felt a bit bewildered, unsure if his previous impulsive actions were right or wrong.

Though he had only interacted with Leng Ruobing briefly, Shen Yuancheng realized that this woman was not simple at all.

If it truly comes to a clash with the Qianqiu Group, who will win or lose is difficult to predict.

"I’ve provoked a big trouble." Shen Yuancheng sighed deeply, feeling a bit regretful. He hadn’t expected that a moment of impulsive competition would bring him a great crisis.

...

After leaving Shen Yuancheng’s company, Leng Ruobing returned to Yunlan Villa.

There wasn’t much going on at Qianqiu Group today, so she got off work early.

Upon arriving home, Leng Ruobing went straight to her room to cultivate the Muscle Strengthening Scripture.

That night, after Xiao Zheng had performed Refining on her, he also revealed this divine skill manual and explained some basic things to Leng Ruobing.

Naturally, Leng Ruobing couldn’t wait to start cultivating.

She sat cross-legged on the ground, with her hands on her knees, palms up, forming a posture called "Five Hearts Facing the Sky." According to the records of the Muscle Strengthening Scripture, the main purpose of this posture is to communicate with the heavens and earth, merging one’s will and spirit into the Dao to comprehend the profound realm of martial arts.

However, Xiao Zheng scoffed at this, saying the Muscle Strengthening Scripture exaggerated its mystique.

Sitting cross-legged with Five Hearts Facing the Sky mainly benefits the flow of qi in the meridians.

"Integrate the entire body’s network of vessels, connect the spirit of the five organs, circulate without scattering, move without stopping, qi arises from within, blood nourishes from outside..." In Leng Ruobing’s mind, the words of the Muscle Strengthening Scripture flowed like water.

Then, she concentrated her mind, sensing her internal organs and essence blood, attempting to derive some perception from them to flow through her meridians.

This is the crucial step in cultivating the Muscle Strengthening Scripture—sensing qi!

One must perceive the existence of a qi within the body and then imagine it constantly moving through the meridians.

Even with Leng Ruobing’s intelligence, she found this step incredibly challenging, almost imperceptible.

"It’s too hard."

She couldn’t help but frown.

The ideas in the Muscle Strengthening Scripture are too abstract—what is "qi," what are "meridians," all these need to be first imagined through the spirit.

Having been educated in a modern scientific system since childhood, Leng Ruobing naturally held a resistance to such esoteric notions.

She even began to doubt whether this was wrong.

"Xiao Zheng said, this is a knowledge barrier. Only by breaking through this obstacle formed by past knowledge can one move forward."

Leng Ruobing took a deep breath, determination flashed in her eyes.

She couldn’t give up.

Failure isn’t scary; what’s scary is giving up after failing.

Xiao Zheng has already performed Refining for her. According to his words, she’s now a genius in the martial arts world, so how can she possibly not succeed in cultivating the Muscle Strengthening Scripture?

What Leng Ruobing didn’t know was that the Muscle Strengthening Scripture is a divine skill manual and, besides being extraordinarily effective, is also extremely difficult to cultivate.

Only a freakish talent like Xiao Zheng could easily cultivate it without much effort after seeing it.

Even those who are naturally martial arts geniuses like Long Qie, Titan, and Catherine could only get started with Xiao Zheng’s careful guidance.

Leng Ruobing attempting to rely on herself to find that thread of qi perception in a short time is like trying to climb to the sky.

However, Leng Ruobing is a person of extremely resilient will. Though she failed, she had no intention of giving up and started cultivating again according to the Muscle Strengthening Scripture’s instructions.

Sensing the flesh.

Imagining that within the flesh exists a stream of qi, this stream is the essence of the entire body—the five organs, six viscera, limbs, and bones—rich in vitality, bursting forth, condensing into a thread of qi.

Though in her perception, Leng Ruobing felt nothing, she remained calm and composed.

Suddenly.

Whoosh...

She seemed to hear the sound of a gentle breeze around her ears, and then she felt a cool sensation at her Dantian, as if a soft breeze was blowing gently.

"I felt it!"

Leng Ruobing was instantly overjoyed.

However, with her surged emotions, the perception of the qi stream vanished instantly.

Leng Ruobing anxiously tried to sense it again, but no matter how she tried, she couldn’t feel it anymore.

Finally, she felt a bit hungry and opened her eyes, glancing at the wall to realize that five to six hours had passed.

"So much time has passed." Leng Ruobing was startled, then proceeded to get up and get something to eat.

At this time, Chu Xiaoran also returned. Currently, Chu Xiaoran is still in university; after filming the movie, she’s participating in some activities at Qianqiu Entertainment on one hand, and attending university on the other.

It’s said the little girl failed several courses due to too many absences.

Chu Xiaoran skipped to Leng Ruobing’s door and entered without knocking, seeing Leng Ruobing’s state, she curiously asked, "Sis, what are you doing? Practicing yoga?"

Leng Ruobing’s face turned slightly red, "I’m practicing cultivation."

"Cultivation?" Hearing these words, Chu Xiaoran burst into laughter, "Sis, have you fallen for some feudal superstition? I’ve heard those qigong are all frauds. Hehe."

"Don’t talk nonsense." Leng Ruobing glared at Chu Xiaoran, "I got a cultivation method from Xiao Zheng. This technique is called the Muscle Strengthening Scripture and is said to be a top-notch divine skill."

"Ah Zheng?"

Chu Xiaoran immediately thought of Xiao Zheng’s previous performances, where he had displayed superhuman skills multiple times, almost like a myth.

She instantly believed and developed a strong curiosity about the Muscle Strengthening Scripture, shaking Leng Ruobing’s arm as she pleaded, "Sis, teach me, I want to learn too."

Leng Ruobing shook her head directly, "No."

Chu Xiaoran was puzzled, "Why not?"

Leng Ruobing replied, "This Muscle Strengthening Scripture is a very rare cultivation technique. Since Xiao Zheng passed it to me, I can’t easily pass it to others. You should go to Xiao Zheng and ask him to teach you."

"That’s true." Chu Xiaoran nodded, understanding this principle.

Divine skills and treasures should not be casually bestowed upon others.
