637 Establishing Heart Realm

Xu Jingming’s mental strength quickly transformed from chaos to purity, something that would’ve taken him a long time to achieve through his practice of spearmanship.

Now, his mental strength was naturally pure, like a delicate flower that shone brightly despite the presence of abnormal emotions and chaotic thoughts. Every petal glowed perfectly.

“When the mind is not contaminated with negativity, it is pure. That is just the most basic form of mental purity,” Xu Jingming whispered. “But true mental purity is when the mind remains pure even after being contaminated by many impurities.

“As the wise men of ancient times said, by nature, there is no Bodhi tree, nor is there a mirror bright. In reality, there is nothing at all, so where does the dust alight?

“My heart is like a bright mirror that reflects everything. All the filth of h.e.l.l cannot leave a single speck of dust on the mirror.” Xu Jingming, sitting cross-legged, spoke softly.

He understood the concept, but how many people in the vast universe could truly attain enlightenment?

After 700 years of suffering in prison, Xu Jingming finally achieved enlightenment on the day of his daughter’s wedding.

“This mental realm can be compared to a lotus flower that rises from the mud, untouched. It can also be compared to a bright mirror that dust cannot settle on. The name may change, but the state is unique.”

Xu Jingming smiled peacefully. “From now on, nothing can soil me.”

He looked up at the Dark Primordial Star Spear Art on the wall. The original idea of ‘accommodation, refinement, and condensation’ seemed possible, but constantly refining impurities only made the condensation process more difficult as he progressed.

Without high-dimensional corruption, the probability of successful condensation was extremely low.

If he was affected by high-dimensional corruption, chaotic thoughts would take over his mind. The further he went, the crazier he would become, and his chances of condensing would be zero.

“Refining impurities is the most basic cultivation method,” Xu Jingming said. “But if the heart can accommodate the Heart Realm, how can there be any impurities?”

“There were never any impurities to begin with! The heart has always been pure.”

“This path of accommodation is the easiest path.” Xu Jingming sighed. “My heart is like a bright mirror, reflecting and accommodating everything without being tainted by it.”

The key to forging the mind’s mirror or the heart lotus was emotion!

“Only stronger emotions can resist abnormal emotions!”

“Only emotions can create a mirror-like heart and bloom a heart lotus.”

Xu Jingming smiled.

His feelings for his daughter were the catalyst. After 700 years of suffering, a heart lotus finally bloomed. The heart lotus swayed, its petals like gla.s.s that illuminated the world without being stained by dust.

“Fortune and misfortune are two sides of the same coin. After a disaster, there will be endless blessings,” Xu Jingming said as he stood up and naturally condensed Cosmic Force into a spear.

Xu Jingming practiced the Dark Primordial Star Spear Art, trying to accommodate more and more high-dimensional information.

In fact, the accommodation method was somewhat similar to building a house. It started by building the foundation layer by layer, making it grow higher!

Spearmanship is only a vessel; the mind is the core.

Xu Jingming was immersed in his spearmanship.

His spearmanship manifested as a miniature Dark Primordial Star floating behind him.

The spearmanship was manifested from a large amount of high-dimensional information nurtured and acc.u.mulated in the mind. As the acc.u.mulation deepened, it was still constantly increasing, causing the mind to slowly transform.

The mind slowly transformed day by day. When it acc.u.mulated over a month, a year, ten years… the improvement in the mind would be shocking.

******

After Xu Lixing and Meng Tian were married, they had a son and a daughter in just 23 years.

The son’s name was Xu Fangjin, and the daughter’s name was Xu Biyun. She was named after the game world where Xu Lixing and Meng Tian first met.

“Bro.” A woman caught up to the young man in front of her.

“Sis.” Xu Fangjin stood by the lake and looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him. He shook his head and sighed. “Let’s not waste time. No matter how hard we try, Mom won’t let us leave Earth.”

“We’ve been stuck on Earth for over 100 years,” the woman said indignantly. “The two heirs of the Pearwood Group have never left their home planet since they were born! People have been mocking us behind our backs.”

Xu Fangjin sighed.

From Xu Jingming on, they were the only siblings in the third generation of the Xu family!

As they got older, Xu Lixing gradually handed over many responsibilities of the corporation to them, so they naturally became aware of the various factions in the universe.

“Which wealthy family’s offspring doesn’t travel the universe at a young age to broaden their horizons?” the woman said. “We are the only ones who are stuck on a single planet.”

“There are too many a.s.sa.s.sins targeting us,” Xu Fangjin remarked.

“a.s.sa.s.sins? We just need to be careful. Don’t tell me you’re willing to be stuck on a planet for the rest of your life just because you’re afraid,” the woman, Xu Biyun, said in frustration.

As the siblings talked, three figures appeared in the distance.

They were Xu Lixing and her husband, as well as Wu Qi.

“Is that Little Fangjin and Little Biyun?” Wu Qi smiled at the young man and woman in the distance. “This is the first time I’m seeing them in person.”

“The two of them have been arguing about traveling to other planets recently,” Xu Lixing said helplessly. “But my father killed so many people and offended so many factions back then! Some people who are near the end of their lives don’t care anymore and want revenge.”

“He was ruthless back then.” Meng Tian nodded. “Whether it was the royal families of the three advanced civilizations or many ancient families, once they had any intention to kill, they would slaughter a lot of people. The core members of many large families were wiped out, and we have made too many enemies.”

Wu Qi nodded. “n.o.body dared to say anything when Young Master killed them all, but they don’t care anymore now.”

“All of them have sent a.s.sa.s.sins to Earth,” Xu Lixing said. “When we investigated, we found out that almost all of them were old people who were close to death. Some of the culprits had already died a long time ago, but they left behind bounties for a.s.sa.s.sins before they pa.s.sed away.”

Wu Qi nodded.

Most cosmic lifeforms only had a lifespan of 3,000 years. As time pa.s.sed, some people who had a grudge against Xu Jingming were nearing the end of their lives.

Xu Jingming had been imprisoned the entire time. These people who were close to death, especially those with no connections… could do anything.

“Earth is heavily guarded. Even a Lv. 10 Origin being wouldn’t be able to launch a surprise attack,” Xu Lixing said. “But we can’t be sure once they leave Earth.”

Wu Qi nodded slightly.

As the three of them walked and talked, they made their way to the lake.

“Dad, Mom,” Xu Fangjin and Xu Biyun called out as they saw their parents and a middle-aged man.

“Are you Mr. Wu?” Xu Fangjin recognized him.

“Mr. Wu recently broke through to become an Origin lifeform,” Xu Lixing said with a smile. “He came to Earth to see the two of you.”

“Origin lifeform?” Xu Fangjin and Xu Biyun were shocked.

Wu Qi smiled and said, “It’s nothing special. It took me so long to become an Origin lifeform even with all the resources Young Master gave me. Compared to him, I’m nothing.”

When Wu Qi had awoken in reality, he easily became a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform.

But then Xu Jingming was imprisoned. Wu Qi worked even harder, and years later, he finally broke through to become an Origin lifeform.

“Mr. Wu, how did you cultivate to become an Origin lifeform?” Xu Biyun asked eagerly. “My sibling and I have tried our best, but we’re only at Lv. 6.”

“First, you have to train your minds,” Wu Qi said with a smile. “You have to be patient. Your grandfather didn’t leave Earth until he became an Origin lifeform.”

…

In the s.p.a.cetime Prison, Xu Jingming read a letter that had arrived for him.

Uncle Qi has also broken through to become an Origin lifeform? Xu Jingming read the letter with surprise. He knew that Uncle Qi had a lot of talent. In the Demon Vanquishing World, Uncle Qi’s saber techniques had reached an extremely high level, and he had become a Heaven Demon. After waking up in reality, he quickly reached Lv. 8.

Xu Jingming was happy for Uncle Qi that he had been able to become an Origin lifeform.

Little Fangjin and Little Biyun want to leave Earth for interstellar travel? Xu Jingming sighed softly. That makes sense. The people they have met in the virtual world are all the descendants of powerful families in the universe. They were born more than 100 years ago, but they have never left Earth… they must be feeling frustrated.

Just endure a little longer.

You guys don’t have to be so cautious when Grandpa gets out, Xu Jingming thought.

For example, why was it that Redmond was able to allow his son Tejano to roam the universe freely without any guards in the early stages?

Firstly, Redmond had some means of protection for his son at his level.

Secondly, he could be resurrected even if he died.

I’m not far from establishing my Heart Realm. Xu Jingming could feel the deep acc.u.mulation in his mind. When the Heart Realm is established, I’ll naturally have ways to protect my grandchildren! These two little ones can go out and have more adventures when the time comes.

Xu Jingming finished reading the letter and sent a reply before summoning a spear and starting to practice again.

When he used the spear, a total of nine Dark Primordial Stars floated around him.

Boom! Boom!

Xu Jingming constantly fused the new high-dimensional information of the Dark Primordial Star into his spearmanship.

Ever since he bloomed a heart lotus, Xu Jingming had made rapid progress! But even though Xu Jingming felt that he was getting closer and closer to establishing his Heart Realm, he continued to acc.u.mulate experience year after year.

Xu Jingming was very patient. What was there to be anxious about when he was making such rapid progress?

In the 1036th year of Xu Jingming’s imprisonment.

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming swung the spear in his hand as if he wanted to tear through s.p.a.ce and split open the prison.

Boom! Boom!

At that moment, Xu Jingming could sense the changes in his mind that had been nurtured to its limits, and his mental strength exploded.

It was as if Pangu had cleaved open the thick chaos and created the world.

Xu Jingming could clearly sense an explosion after his mental strength was nurtured to its limits! The explosive mental strength swept through a mysterious place, tearing through the chaos and blasting open a small world!

In the small world, the Dark Primordial Star hung high, illuminating the area. The ground was vast, and there were no living beings.

Establishment of the Heart Realm. Xu Jingming smiled. He knew that the world was a high-dimensional Heart Realm.
