Like the previous upgrades not so long ago, once Pei Xuanjing made his selection, his veins and flesh, internal organs and marrow began to strengthen again, with his physical strength also substantially increasing.

With a punch thrown into the void, even the surrounding air roared with strong winds. The dramatic increase in his physical strength gave him great confidence.

He felt that even against a martial artist of the same realm, if they had not cultivated across martial studies, they would be caught off guard and he could blow them up with a punch.

I want to fight ten!

This was Pei Xuanjing's biggest desire after the increase in his strength.

In the following time, after using more than half a month to familiarize himself with his increased strength and recover his vitality, he started the life simulation again.

“The Great Tao is fifty, Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths are derived from it, and one escapes! Hence, a ray of life exists in everything in the world!”

At the age of twenty-one: You cultivated the “Dragon Elephant Skill” to the sixth level and left Anping Prefecture.

At the age of twenty-two: You visited the Four Symbols Sect, traversing the mountains fearlessly, even in heavy rain, as a means to temper yourself.

At the age of twenty-three: You left the Four Symbols Sword Sect.

At the age of twenty-four: You went to Diamond Gate to seize the remaining part of the “Dragon Elephant Skill” and failed, resulting in pursuit by Diamond Gate.

At the age of twenty-five: However, facing constant pursuit by the elite of Diamond Gate, you fled to the uncivilized land of the Western Regions.

At the age of twenty-seven: In this desolate land of the Western Regions, where there are rarely any human traces, after reflecting day and night on your own experiences and self-discipline, and organizing your learnings, one day, when the moon was high in the sky, you had a sudden insight. You cultivated the “Water Swordsmanship” to the ultimate realm, comprehending the true meaning of Martial Arts, which is also the Martial Arts intent necessary for breaking through the third-grade realm.

At the age of twenty-eight: You went back to Northwest Dao, intending to seek revenge from

Diamond Gate, but unexpectedly, you were involved in an uprising and fought against the expert sent by the force behind Liu family. You traded blows with him several rounds, relying upon the physical cultivation of the sixth level of “Dragon Elephant Art”. Eventually, you used the Martial Arts intent to display an unexpectedly learnt sword move “Soaring Immortal From Outer Heaven” to kill the third-grade martial artist, ending up in each other's demise.

“End of life simulation.”

“Is the true meaning of Martial Arts so powerful? It actually allows me, a fourth-grade martial artist, to challenge a third-grade martial artist and end up mutually destroyed.” Pei Xuanjing couldn't help fantasizing.

When it comes to the ninth -grade of the Three Realms of Martial Arts, it can be said that power enhancement can lead to the jumping of grades to challenge others, but with the rise of strength, it's increasingly difficult to challenge across grades.

Every martial artist, especially powerful ones, have cultivated their skills through countless hardships and struggles, and it is not easy to transcend levels.

Take a fourth-grade martial artist for example, if he wants to challenge a third-grade martial artist, he probably needs a Ten Thousand-Forged Divine Weapon in his hands, and he should be very compatible with this weapon to achieve it. Even so, he can only challenge some less powerful third-grade martial artists.

According to the results of this life simulation, Pei Xuanjing believed that the third-grade martial artist sent by the White Lotus Sect, the power behind the Liu family, was probably the faux grandmaster that Li Yuzhen talked about, not the grandmaster who truly broke through the third-grade realm with his own strength.

Otherwise, it could not be explained how he, as a fourth-grade martial artist, challenged a third-grade martial artist, even if the result was a mutual destruction. “Simulation is over, you can choose to keep one of the following rewards.”

“First, the true meaning of Martial Arts.”

“Second, perception of the sword move 'Soaring Immortal From Outer Heaven'.”

“Third, related information about the Wildlands of the Western Regions.”

He chose the first option without hesitation.

For him, the thing he looked forward to the most now was breaking through the third-grade realm.

If he wanted to break through, what he lacked the most was the intent of Martial Arts. As long as he understood the intent of Martial Arts, he might be able to smoothly break through to the third-grade realm in the next life simulation.

Even in the worst scenario, if he didn't break through in the next simulation, by understanding the intent of Martial Arts, he could still pile up a third-grade martial artist with plentiful resources.

After making the selection, there was much more information in Pei Xuanjing's mind. While he was receiving this information, his demeanor involuntarily changed.

If it could be said that he was previously like an unsheathed sword, then after receiving this

information and understanding the intent of Martial Arts, he was more like a sheathed treasure sword, starting to restrain his power.

“The gains from this time far exceed the past.” Pei Xuanjing's eyes flashed with an extraordinary color.

The effects brought about by the true meaning of Martial Arts far exceeded his previous expectations.

The so-called true meaning of Martial Arts is the Martial Arts intent that he and Li Yuzhen had mentioned before.

When he had previously cultivated 'IWater Swordsmanship” to the realm of profound understanding, he had a sense of this realm, but he did not really step into it.

After understanding the true meaning of Martial Arts, his Martial Arts realm underwent a change. It was not as simple as merely cultivating “Water Swordsmanship” to the ultimate realm.

The true meaning of Martial Arts, if you use a sword, it's called Sword Intent, if you use a knife, it's called Saber Intent, if you use your fist, it'S called Fist Intent…

Apart from his best swordsmanship, Pei Xuanjing's palm and fist matrices also improved significantly.

This is a comprehension of nature by the martial artist after cultivating martial arts skills, and as soon as you reach this step, it'S the so-called “understanding one rule leads to understanding all others”.

This is also why the martial artists of the Upper Three Realms are called 'Grandmasters'.

This time, Pei Xuanjing's rest period was longer than any previous ones. The information in his mind, and the vitality consumed in this life simulation, took him a whole three months to recover.

During this time, he also used those spiritual materials and elixirs to fill his energy to a brimmed state. His energy, accumulated purely over a decade, was not weak compared to common fourth -grade martial artists.

“The last chance for simulation, I wonder if I can break through to the third-grade realm this time.”

“The Great Tao is fifty, Forty-Nine Heavenly Paths are derived from it, and one escapes! Hence, a ray of life exists in everything in the world!”

At age twenty-one: You understood the true meaning of Martial Arts in one night, and you cultivated the “Dragon Elephant Skill” to the sixth level, left Anping Prefecture, and traveled around the world.

At age twenty-two: You went to the Four Symbols Sect for a visit, and had discussions with the elite of the Four Symbols Sect. After several months, you left the Four Symbols Sect and continued to travel.

At age twenty-three: You had accumulated enough true Qi, and looked for a secluded place to start seclusion.

Half a year later, you finally broke through to the realm of third-grade martial artists.

At age twenty-four: You sneaked into Diamond Gate to seize the remaining part of the “Dragon Elephant Skill” but alarmed the grasshoppers and returned without success.

At age twenty-five: You went far away to the Western Regions, wanting to find the residence of the Esoteric Sect and search for the Esoteric Sect's “Dragon Elephant Skill”, but still found nothing. At age twenty-seven: You cultivated the “Burning Palm” to the realm of conscious perception..
