Deducing Godhood from the Fetal Stage

Chapter 13 Bottleneck

Jiang Yun's consciousness awoke from deep sleep, and her first feeling was one of clarity.

The amniotic fluid that was cloudy and contained traces of metabolic waste when I finished my cultivation last night has now become unusually clear, and even has a layer of lustrous sheen.

He recalled what Wei Yun had said before, that a mother practicing martial arts would be beneficial to the fetus's development, and it seemed that this was reflected in the quality of the amniotic fluid.

My mother's physical condition seemed to have improved considerably overnight.

"Don't just think about how to train to benefit the fetus, you also need to explore the true essence of martial arts yourself."

It was Wei Yun's voice.

"The Purple Jade Limitless Stance is the body tempering chapter of the Purple Jade Embracing Mystery Skill. It emphasizes the idea of ​​a meteorite detaching from a planet and falling into the starry sky. This is the first move of the body tempering chapter, 'Meteorite Bone'."

In the cultivation room, Wei Yun's voice was steady and clear.

Through the newly solidified connection between mother and child, Jiang Yun extended her perception outwards.

Ling Jiu stood in the morning light, her body slightly leaning forward, her arms outstretched like wings, and her lower limbs slightly bent, as if simulating the motion of a meteorite rapidly wandering through the starry sky.

"Meteorites wander through the starry sky at extremely high speeds and in a straight line, leaving behind a great deal of starlight, which is called 'Flowing Light'."

Wei Yun walked slowly around Ling Jiu, her gaze sharp as a ruler, measuring the tension and relaxation of every inch of her muscles.

"You were already at the Jade Muscle stage of the eighth level of Body Tempering, and you've had two years of stagnation before finally unleashing your full potential. The first two techniques only need slight modifications, and you'll be able to reach the entry level very quickly."

Ling Jiu's loungewear was soaked with sweat, clinging to her skin and outlining her slender yet already powerful lines.

"After that, as long as you focus on practicing the last technique of the Body Tempering Chapter, 'Cleansing Crystal Dust,' and reach the state of eliminating impurities and washing away impurities, you should be able to reach the late stage of Jade Skin, which is the ninth level of Body Tempering."

Wei Yun stopped and stood in front of Ling Jiu. "Then, you can understand the true meaning of these three stances and integrate them. This will allow you to break through the first realm of martial arts and reach the second realm of Qi and Blood."

"I understand, Deacon Wei."

Ling Jiu's voice was strained, and sweat beaded on her forehead, but she persisted.

Jiang Yun focused his senses on Ling Jiu's posture, which was the starting stance of "Washing Crystal Dust".

The practitioner is required to imagine themselves as a meteorite that has been wandering in the starry sky for billions of years. During the rapid and long drift, the celestial body is detached from the impurities that are not strong due to extreme temperatures, while the stable parts are squeezed inward, eventually becoming a very solid celestial body.

Although Ling Jiu's work was still somewhat clumsy, the basic framework was already in place.

Jiang Yun felt slightly embarrassed.

While he hadn't even mastered the 'Meteorite Bone' technique, his mother had already begun her attempt to reach the ninth level of Body Tempering.

However, upon further reflection, Ling Jiu was already a martial artist at the eighth level of Body Tempering, reaching the mid-stage of Jade Skin. She had a cultivation technique tailored to her by Dao Jun, personal guidance from Wei Yun, a martial master at the Sympathetic Realm, support from her family's resources, and even two years of stagnation before finally unleashing her potential.

With the added boost of his terrifying comprehension from this "borrowed wisdom," it's no surprise that he progressed quickly.

He calmed his mind and began to try to activate the "Meteorite Bone" artistic conception that had been running automatically during his sleep last night.

Deep within the bones, a subtle, persistent tingling sensation spread. It was a sign that the bones were being slowly tempered and grown.

At the breakfast table, Ling Jiu's appetite caught Wei Yun's eye.

"Miss has a very good appetite today." Wei Yun pushed another plate of sliced ​​spiritual fruit in front of her.

"Hmm..." Ling Jiu swallowed the food in her mouth, her hand unconsciously stroking her lower abdomen, her expression softening. "It feels like the baby is at a crucial stage of development and needs extra nutrition. I need to eat more."

As she said this, Jiang Yun was trying to digest the exceptionally rich and pure energy surging from her umbilical cord.

However, this was still a bit difficult for him as a fetus. He could only continue to maintain the "Meteorite Bone" posture to accelerate absorption. At the same time, his fatigue deepened, and he felt like he was about to fall asleep again.

"The family has already taken care of the procedures for returning to school." Wei Yun put a piece of fruit that looked very nutritious on Ling Jiu's plate.

"But for the sake of your self-confidence, I personally suggest that you make a breakthrough in some area before returning to school. Facing those familiar yet unfamiliar classmates and teachers will make it easier to break down your mental barriers."

Ling Jiu nodded: "Deacon Wei is right."

"So, here's the plan for the next month."

Wei Yun lightly tapped her fingertip in the air, and a pale blue light screen unfolded, displaying a densely packed schedule and course list.

"In the morning, I will guide you in practicing the Body Tempering Chapter of the Purple Jade Embracing Profound Technique, striving to break through to the Qi and Blood Realm as soon as possible. In the afternoon and evening, I will hire the best video tutors for you to make up for the poetry and literature courses you missed for a year. You are naturally talented in these two areas, so catching up won't be too difficult for you."

Ling Jiu took a bite of the fruit, her eyes serious: "Okay, I'll follow Steward Wei's arrangements. For the baby, and for myself."

Yes, this is the kind of woman who can be my mother!

Jiang Yun silently cheered for her mother from inside her womb.

At the same time, he once again immersed himself in his understanding of the 'Meteorite Bone'.

His mother was working hard, and as her son, he couldn't fall behind.

More than a month passed quietly as I focused on my practice and study.

The villa's training room became Ling Jiu's favorite place. Even the carpet was worn smooth from where she practiced her stances.

Jiang Yun woke up from her deep sleep once again, looked at the abundant amniotic fluid, and remarked that she was eating better and better.

Then he sighed again.

[Dao Hui: 68 (Slowly increasing)]

[Computing power surplus: 0]

[Purple Jade Limitless Stance - Meteor Bone: Beginner (99.9999%)]

Dao Hui increased by 8 points. Although the speed was far less than the explosive increase when the divine wisdom was opened, it was steady and continuous.

However, the progress of the meteorite bone was stuck at the last seemingly insignificant, yet insurmountable, 0.0001%.

No matter how he tried to mentally simulate the meteorite's departure from the planet, that final step always fell short of perfection.

Even more tragically, in order to accelerate his cultivation using "flow," his computing power was completely exhausted.

But he still couldn't break through that final 0.000000001.

Fortunately, Ling Jiu and he were stuck in the same place, and today Wei Yun was explaining the artistic conception of "Meteorite Bone" to Ling Jiu again.

He quickly activated "Mother and Child Connected Hearts" and sensed that Ling Jiu was also listening attentively, her aura becoming increasingly deep and focused.

After more than a month of arduous training, her Dao wisdom has quietly increased to 200 points, and her martial arts realm has naturally reached the ninth level of Body Tempering Perfection thanks to years of accumulation and the guidance of top-level techniques.

However, she could never quite grasp the secret to breaking through to the Qi and Blood Realm.

"I'm sorry, I'm too anxious. The thought that if I can't break through in martial arts, the baby won't be able to be born smoothly makes me anxious."

Ling Jiu stood in her stance and said earnestly, "But I don't want to be discouraged. I want to work hard to break through my current level so that the baby's life force can be successfully born."

"Hmm." Wei Yun looked at Ling Jiu, her eyes now full of approval.

"The key is to break free from the state of mind of that moment."

She struck a pose resembling the "Meteorite Bone" and commanded the AI ​​in the training room to unfold a large screen displaying a scene of a planet being affected and destroyed by a powerful being.

A meteorite broke off from a planet and was forced to wander the universe, its posture completely blending with Wei Yun's standing posture.

Although Ling Jiu's posture was exactly the same as Wei Yun's, the other light screen that overlapped with her body always disappeared after the star shattered.

Wei Yun shook her head: "The artistic conception is still not right."
