Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Jiang Yuan could sense many changes occurring within his body.

The one that surprised him the most, however, was the progress he had made over the last three days.

After that brief teleportation movement a while ago, he felt that about twenty to thirty percent of his dharma-power had been instantly consumed.

That’s twenty to thirty percent, just for one instantaneous movement.

Though it seemed much, it wasn’t really.

Because in the Divine Bridge Realm, one can harness the power of heaven and earth for personal use, and the dharma-power is almost endless, making it difficult to deplete.

This kind of consumption was acceptable in combat.

However, for travel, this was highly extravagant and could easily deplete all his dharma-power in a short period of time.

From the experiment a while ago, he figured that he could, at most, teleport about ten meters at a time.

Although that wasn’t all that much, it could prove extremely useful in combat.

As long as he followed the spatial fluctuations, he could span hundreds of meters in an instant.

Those spatial fluctuations were invisible to most people who had not comprehended the Path of Space.

Under such circumstances, he enjoyed a significant innate advantage.

Moreover, his comprehension of the Path of Space was not limited to just this.

Jiang Yuan looked at the layer upon layer of space in front of him, which looked like a stacked cake, and with a thought, he quietly fused himself into the first layer of space.

At this point, Shu Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Yuan in surprise.

She could clearly sense that Young Master was right in front of her, yet she felt like he was miles away.

“Young Master, what is…” She looked at him, a trace of confusion on her face.

Jiang Yuan replied nonchalantly, “Try touching me.”

Upon hearing this, Shu Xiaoxiao reached out her delicate jade fingers and touched Jiang Yuan’s body.

Immediately, she saw ripples emanating from her fingertips as they touched what seemed like a piece of void. She couldn’t feel anything with her hands, failing to touch Jiang Yuan’s body.

Her eyes widened: “Young Master, is this the Path of Space?”

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly: “Indeed, this is the Path of Space.”

Shu Xiaoxiao then exclaimed, “No wonder the Path of Space is considered king out of the Three Thousand Great Dao. It truly is extraordinary!”

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement.

Through his own experience, he understood this claim deeply.

The Path of Space was indeed terrifying.

Once a person mastered the rules of space, their speed would multiple instantly, exceeding that of ordinary cultivators in the same realm.

In the Divine Bridge Realm, even those with higher cultivation levels than him could hardly match his speed.

Apart from that, he had also mastered the extraordinary method of short-range teleportation.

His ability to protect himself had become incredibly extraordinary.

Like right now, he was walking in the first layer of space.

To ordinary people, he was visible but untouchable.

Most forms of attack were incapable of affecting him in the other layer of space.

While powerful destructive techniques could indeed break through the confines of space and reach him in another layer of space, their power would be greatly reduced, leaving only two or three parts out of ten to harm him.

Of course, the stronger the power, the easier it was to pierce through space, and the more damage he would take as a result.

Nevertheless, this was still an exceptional means of self-preservation, and Jiang Yuan was very satisfied with it.

Only by living can there be all kinds of possibilities.

The more ways a cultivator has to protect themselves, the better.

The Path of Space indeed deserved its royal title amongst the Three Thousand Great Dao.

After completing the experiment,

Jiang Yuan cast a glance at the Earth Fire Yang Lotus in his pouch, then at his nearly depleted Spiritual Sea inside him.

After spiritual power transformed into dharma-power, his Spiritual Sea was nearly depleted.

In the Divine Bridge Realm, to make progress, one needs to replenish the Spiritual Sea while enhancing their comprehension of the power of heaven and earth so as to gain control over more power of heaven and earth.

Among these, comprehending the power of heaven and earth was of utmost importance.

If it were about replenishing the Spiritual Sea, it would not be particularly challenging.

Although more resources were needed compared to those in the Spiritual Sea Realm, the increase was not absurdly exaggerated.

The key was, in this realm, they could control the power of heaven and earth, almost as if they naturally possessed a Spirit Gathering Array. Thus their cultivation speed was at least ten times, or even more, faster than those in the Spiritual Sea Realm.

So, for ordinary cultivators in the Divine Bridge Realm, their biggest limitation was only their comprehension of the power of heaven and earth.

In this regard, the most straightforward and effective method was to master more rules.

Every time they mastered a rule, their control over the power of heaven and earth would significantly increase.

Generally, if they were capable of mastering a rule, it meant that they had solidly reached the first level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

Mastering a second rule meant they had unlocked the gate to the second level of the Divine Bridge Realm.

After all, everything in heaven and earth was a product of order in rules.

Mastering more rules meant a higher comprehension of heaven and earth.

Jiang Yuan was not particularly worried about this.

In the mastery of the power of rules, in this realm, he was ranked at the top, if not counted with the fingers of one hand.

Because understanding the power of rules was not easy at all.

For most people, without special opportunities, if they wanted to understand the power of rules, they could only meticulously cultivate an earth-level technique to perfection.

By following the guidance of the technique, they would be able to comprehend the corresponding power of rules.

However, Jiang Yuan had already mastered six types of rule power including the Dao of Five Elements and the Path of Space.

Relying on his own miniature universe, he could wield the power of the heavens and the earth, virtually equivalent to the presence of a cultivator in the sixth stage of the Divine Bridge Realm. This came from the accumulation of his previous exploits.

Starting from such a high point was one of his greatest advantages in this realm.

At this thought, Jiang Yuan looked at the Earth Fire Yang Lotus in his pouch with anticipation.
