Xu Yan's blood qi circulated within his body, merging into one, and gathering throughout his being—the gates to Martial Arts had already opened, and at this moment, he was lifting his foot to step through the threshold.
After a night of cultivation and realization, he finally understood how to merge everything into one, how to gather it all within himself.
The three fundamental stages of Skin Refinement, Bone Refinement, and Viscera Refinement, although already completed, did not mean that he had stepped through the gates of Martial Arts.
Only when the three merged into one and gathered within the body, when the physical body underwent a transformation, and blood qi became as round and full as one, bursting forth from the body, fierce as qi, would it be the true entry into Martial Arts.
That would be the real threshold of the Martial Arts realm.
"This is the merging of everything into one, the gathering within oneself; I feel I am being sublimated, becoming stronger."
