Chapter 1663 Fifth Stage
The following day, Xiao Tian and Qiao Luli went to Wan Ying's house. There were two reasons why he decided to travel to Wan Ying's house.
First, he wanted to fulfill his promise to Wan Ying by giving her many snacks and delicious food.
And last, he wanted to ask Wan Shun how to master the fifth stage.
Wan Shun said mastering the fifth stage would make him age very slowly from an ordinary person.
If he could master the fifth stage in his twenties, he would look young forever.
This was the reason why he wanted to learn how to master the fifth stage because he wanted to look young forever.
"Big brother Qing, Luli." Wan Ying, who was tending vegetables in the front yard, rushed over to them when she saw them.
Wan Shun, who was watering vegetable plants, turned his head toward Xiao Tian and Qiao Luli.
"Oho! They came again?!" Wan Shun smiled when he saw Xiao Tian and Qiao Luli.
Over the past two months, their relationship had drastically improved.
Even though he still did not want to take Xiao Tian as his disciple, he always helped Xiao Tian if Xiao Tian did not understand something.
"You are the best, big brother Qing." Wan Ying's eyes shone brightly when she saw many snacks and delicious food.
Xiao Tian smiled before finally walking toward Wan Shun. "Elder, I bought special wine for you. I'm sure you will like it later."
"Oho? Special wine?" even though he only pretended to be surprised, Wan Shun was pleased. "Then let's head to the backyard now."
"Yes. Let's go to the backyard." Wan Ying added.
After reaching the backyard, they enjoyed the food and snacks together.
"This wine is indeed good!" Wan Shun stated. "You should give me this wine more often."
"Sure." Xiao Tian responded.
After eating the food and snacks, Wan Shun asked, "How is it? Have you mastered the fourth stage?"
"Yes. I have mastered it." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.
"What?! You are already in the Divine Transformation stage, big brother Qing?!" Wan Ying said in surprise.
Wan Shun immediately pinched his granddaughter's cheeks. "Stop giving a bad nickname!"
Wan Ying removed his hands from her cheeks. "What do you mean by that, grandpa? The divine Transformation stage name is much cooler than the fifth stage name. Isn't that right, big brother Qing?"
The corner of Xiao Tian's lips twitched.
'Here, we go again.'
Something like this had happened several times, so he was used to it.
Wan Shun returned his attention to Xiao Tian. "Can you jump, run or fight on water now?"
"Yes." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer again. "The water is already like ground for me now."
Wan Shun was amazed by Xiao Tian's achievement. He mastered the fourth stage in his thirties, but Xiao Tian could do it in his twenties.
This showed one meaning.
Xiao Tian's talent was better than his.
Of course, he was not envious of Xiao Tian's talent.
Actually, he no longer cared about the martial arts world. The martial arts world was cruel. He only wanted to live peacefully with his granddaughter.
This was the reason why they lived in a hidden and dangerous place because, with this, they could live peacefully.
"So, you want to know how to master the fifth stage, right?" Wan Shun finally understood why Xiao Tian brought special wine for him.
"Well…" Xiao Tian suddenly felt awkward. "…yes. I want to know how to master the fifth stage."
"From the fifth stage onwards, the difficulty will be much higher." Wan Shun uttered, "Most candidates to be the Ruler take many years to master this stage."
He then continued, "Some of them even can't master this stage, so don't give up if you can't master this stage as easily as the previous explaining the fifth stage.
Wan Shun said Xiao Tian needed to become one with the energy of stages."
"Understood, elder." Xiao Tian responded.
"Now I will tell you how to master the fifth stage and what will happen to your body after mastering this stage." Wan Shun began explaining the fifth stage.
Wan Shun said Xiao Tian needed to become one with the energy of heaven and earth to master the fifth stage.
He needed to make the energy of heaven and earth become one with his blood, flesh, bones, and all of his organs, including his heart.
If he managed to master the fifth stage, the impurities in his body would come out. His skin would become smoother and brighter.
His body would become stronger, and he would be able to see the energy of heaven and earth.
This was the reason why he would look young forever after mastering the fifth stage because the impurities in his body would come out.
"First, you need to merge the energy with your blood." Wan Shun spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "After that, merge the energy with your flesh, lungs, and heart."
When Wan Shun saw Xiao Tian's expression, he knew that Xiao Tian still did not fully understand his words.
"You need to feel the blood running through your body first." Wan Shun uttered, "After that, merge the energy in your martial arts points with your blood. Don't worry. Your body will absorb the energy of heaven and earth into your martial arts points automatically later."
He said the first step was the most difficult because his blood never stopped moving, so he needed to control his energy well.
"Remember, you have to merge the energy with your blood first, not other organs." Wan Shun responded, "If you merge the energy with your heart first, you will die immediately."
Xiao Tian was shocked.
'What?! That could lead to death?!'
He did not expect that mastering the fifth stage could lead to death.
"Even though mastering the fifth stage is hard, once you master it, the ordinary martial artists would not be able to defeat you, even martial artists at the high-level grandmaster stage." Wan Shun told him about the benefit of mastering the fifth stage.
He then continued, "If you manage to master the sixth stage, all ordinary martial artists are like ants."
"Like ant?" Xiao Tian said in surprise.
"Yes, like ants." Wan Shun responded, "As long as you want to, you can kill them easily."
Xiao Tian suddenly wanted to master the fifth stage immediately so that he could learn the sixth stage.
Wan Shun then pointed his right index finger at the tree not far from them. "Sit under that tree and try to feel your blood."
"Understood." Xiao Tian did what he was told.
As Xiao Tian was trying to master the fifth stage, Wan Shun kept looking at him.
'Twenty-four years old, but already at the fourth stage. He is not bad.'
Wan Shun kept staring at Xiao Tian.
"Grandpa, I have good eyes for talent, right?" Wan Ying praised herself without feeling shy.
Wan Shun shifted his gaze from Xiao Tian to Wan Ying. "I'm sure it's only a coincidence."
"What do you mean by saying it's only a coincidence? I know big brother Qing is an amazing person from the beginning." Wan Ying uttered, "That is why I decided to take him as your disciple."
Wan Shun rolled his eyes.
"Maybe he will be stronger than you in the future." Wan Ying knew that Xiao Tian would become a powerful martial artist in the future.
"Well, we will see about it." Wan Shun responded.
