Chapter 51: Early Golden Stage Spiritual Power

Generally, Martial Artists’ cultivation is divided into two types. One is physical training, which can enhance physical fitness.

The other type is the cultivation of internal power. However, this is exclusive to martial artists in the Dark Force phase, while martial artists in the Warrior phase have no internal power to cultivate.

In addition to these two common types, there is also the cultivation of Spiritual Power by Spiritual Mind Masters.

The cultivation of Spiritual Power involves both normal cultivation and a process called Comprehension.

The state of Comprehension is very rare. First of all, a martial artist needs a completely empty and clear mind, with no fluctuations in their mental state. Even the slightest disturbance cannot be present. Furthermore, there are specific requirements for the surrounding environment.

Spiritual power should also be released, the closer to a natural state in order to achieve a better Comprehension effect.

Once successful, not only will the spiritual power experience a considerable increase, but some special effects may also occur.

This is similar to the sudden comprehension of martial arts techniques. For example, Lin Zhen’s practice of Nine Layers Spear River requires a certain ability to comprehend, but this process is far less rare than the comprehension of spiritual power.

In his previous life, Lin Zhen was also a spiritual mind master, but he had never entered the state of Mental Power Comprehension. He could only read some related posts on the internet, such as a particular spiritual mind master achieving comprehension and their spiritual power increasing, besides improvement in the application of mental power.

He never expected that after being reborn, he would enter the mental power comprehension state so quickly.

Spiritual power is invisible and colorless, and it quietly overflows like water, or like a spider web, spreading in all directions around Lin Zhen.

In the night sky, the cosmic energy is more concentrated than during the day. This omnipresent dark energy flows with Lin Zhen’s spiritual power, perfectly merging together, and gradually absorbs the dark energy, becoming stronger.

This process seems slow, but for Lin Zhen, it is already fast enough. He forgets everything, completely immersing himself in the euphoric state of rapidly increasing spiritual power. The feeling is simply unparalleled and incomparable!

Cosmic dark energy is the most fundamental force of the universe, and also its most core power. It is all-encompassing and can help martial artists enhance their internal power, as well as their spiritual power.

After reaching the Star Realm, cultivating dark energy becomes one of the most important things for martial artists, as it will enhance their Dantian’s cosmic power.

If one could see Lin Zhen’s spiritual power at this moment, they would witness such a peculiar sight.

Lin Zhen appears like a giant spider at the center, surrounded by a slowly expanding mercury-like spiritual power that spreads like a spider web in all directions. It envelops everything nearby and continues to grow larger, resembling a small lake.

In this lake, the silver water becomes more abundant, while the green water dwindles, signifying that the Bronzeification within Lin Zhen’s body has almost disappeared.

Over time, about three hours later, the green water eventually vanishes completely, replaced by a faint golden water flow.

Goldenization!

During this time frame, Lin Zhen has jumped from the mid -peak Silverization stage to the late-stage peak and even shows signs of entering the Goldenization phase!

At this moment, Lin Zhen doesn’t seem to have a clear perception of this. He even forgets whether it is his past life or his current life; he instinctively knows that he should have a more nuanced control of his spiritual power to gain something at this moment.

“The wonders of spiritual power are endless. To a great extent, it can enhance nerve reactions, gain a more subtle perception of the surrounding environment, manipulate objects, fly, and provide protection.”

“Right now, my spiritual power seems to be able to provide protection; I want to give it a try.”

With his eyes closed, Lin Zhen silently senses the omnipresent dark energy around him, and gradually forms a protective layer with his spiritual power.

Faintly, like mist, it envelops Lin Zhen and gradually solidifies as his comprehension of spiritual power deepens.

After another half hour, the time reaches midnight. At this moment, the dark energy is at its strongest of the day.

The invisible dark energy in the night sky suddenly surged, blending into Lin

Zhen’s spiritual power like flowing water, and reinforcing his protective layer.

“Almost there, after half an hour of comprehension and reinforcement, my protective layer is finally successful!”

The silver protective layer, with a hint of faint gold, finally solidified completely.

At the moment the protective shield condensed, a faint gasp came from behind, causing Lin Zhen’s heart to skip a beat and waking him up from his contemplative state.

Turning around furiously, Lin Zhen saw Zhao Liang standing not far behind him, staring at him with wide eyes and an incredulous look on his face.

At this moment, Lin Zhen’s newly broken through spiritual power was not well controlled. As he woke up from his contemplative state, his spiritual power leaked out and affected his eyes. In Zhao Liang’s view, Lin Zhen’s eyes radiated a bright silver glow with specks of golden light shining within, appearing exceptionally terrifying in the darkness. Zhao Liang shivered, and if not for his strong nerves, he would have screamed by now.

Lin Zhen knew that Zhao Liang must have seen his spiritual shield on the surface of his body and was shocked.

Although Lin Zhen did not want to expose the secret of his mental power, he knew that it would eventually be exposed one day, so he was mentally prepared.

Moreover, Lin Zhen felt good about Zhao Liang, so it didn’t matter that he saw it.

At this moment, Lin Zhen’s mood was incredibly elated. After this sudden enlightenment, his mental power had surpassed the silver late stage peak and entered the Golden Early Stage.

In his previous life, it took him a thousand years of cultivation to reach the silver peak in his spiritual power. However, in this life, he reached the early stage in less than a month, which was drastically different from his previous life.

The Golden Early Stage meant that he could control objects to fly. Even for martial artists, this ability was unattainable without breaking through to the Star Realm. This alone would almost make him invincible.

He converged his mental power, and his eyes gradually returned to normal. He waved to Zhao Liang and said, “Brother Zhao, why are you up?

Zhao Liang finally came to his senses, looked around to make sure no one was following him, then cautiously sat down beside Lin Zhen. After observing Lin Zhen up and down for a long time, he finally asked, “Lin Zhen, what happened just now? What was that silver light shield around you? What’s going on with your eyes? The sight of them made my heart beat faster… Could it be…?”

“Brother Zhao, I’ve always considered you a good friend, so there’s no harm in telling you. But please keep it a secret for me.”

“Don’t worry, brother. From the day I brought you into the martial arts hall, I knew you were a genius. Your performance has indeed amazed me. I have a strong mental capacity, so just speak, and I promise I won’t tell anyone.”

“You’re right. I’m a Spiritual Mind Master. The silver shield you saw is a protective shield I built using my mental power. It’s called a spiritual shield. I believe Brother Zhao is familiar with this term.”

“Heavens! You’re really a Spiritual Mind Master? No wonder your strength doesn’t seem like that of a warrior level. I know about spiritual shields. I saw it mentioned online, but… aren’t those only possessed by the occasional top-tier War God powerhouse?”

Zhao Liang was shocked for a while and then suddenly said, “Hold on, Lin

Zhen, how old are you? Even if you have spiritual power, shouldn’t it be the Bronze Level’s green color? How come the protective shield I saw seemed to be entirely silver, and even had a hint of gold inside? Could it be the moonlight playing tricks?”

As Zhao Liang spoke, he looked up at the night sky, only to realize that there was no moon tonight.

Lin Zhen smiled and said, “Brother Zhao, you’re not seeing things. I just broke through to the Golden Early Stage in my spiritual power, which is why I must ask you to keep it a secret.”

“What?! Golden Early Stage?!”

Zhao Liang’s reaction was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly jumping up. He examined Lin Zhen up and down for a while before suddenly grabbing Lin Zhen by the neck.

“Oh my! Are you trying to kill me? You’re not even eighteen yet, and you already have Golden Early Stage spiritual power! I saw a video of a War God-level Spiritual Mind Master fighting online, and his spiritual power was only at the silver late stage, with a green aura! How can you surpass a War God? How can I, an insignificant War General shrimp, cope with this? I’m going to annihilate you, you freak!”

Of course, Zhao Liang was just exaggerating to vent his inner excitement, and he didn’t exert any force on Lin Zhen’s neck. The two laughed and teased each other for a while before calming down.

As Lin Zhen sat there looking at the night sky, he said to Zhao Liang, “Brother Zhao, I think the leak about our mission must have come from within the martial arts hall.”

If it were in the past, Zhao Liang might have defended the martial arts hall, but this time he nodded without speaking, waiting for Lin Zhen to continue.

This was a demonstration of strength. A Golden Stage Spiritual Mind Master, although having only a Level Eight Fighter’s physical strength, could probably be on par with an Intermediate War General in actual combat. Lin Zhen had now become the strongest in this small team. Zhao Liang had to show respect to the strong, whether they were friends or not. It was necessary..
