Chapter 236 38. Female Instructor Bone Tempering Class! (10,000 words asking for subscriptions!)_2

It turns out that this world is not just the Real World but also includes an inner world: the Spirit Realm.

The Spirit Realm doesn't exist in some far off place, it is right here within the Real World. It's like a shadow world, overlapping completely with the Real World, even the buildings, the terrain, the forests, and the rivers are exactly the same.

But unlike the Real World, that world contains no matter, only the manifested Power of Laws and countless spiritual entities.

The two worlds are separated by a fragile, yet elastic, membrane. Though they are very close, they are also worlds apart.

It is said that the Spirit Realm is the origin of all Awakening Abilities, Extraordinary Artifacts, and Disaster Creatures.

Inside, there are innumerable treasures and various Disaster Creatures, as well as a profusion of scattered Power of Laws.

Some say the Spirit Realm is the dark side of the entire world, the starting point and the endpoint of the World Origin.@@@@

Countless Creatures and Laws are born and destroyed here.

It is the source of everything, a world without matter, containing only pure Laws, spirits, and souls.

Only by shedding the shackles of the physical body and elevating the soul can one reach that world—this is what Spirit Ascension is.

Therefore, to undergo Spirit Ascension, it is not necessary to achieve Perfection in the ascension stage.

Over the years, the Federation has discovered that, in fact, as long as one has more than two Awakening Abilities, the human soul is completely stable and can survive in the Spirit Realm.

So, theoretically, once a Fuser reaches Perfection at the first stage, all Fusers can experience Spirit Ascension.

However, the strength of the body, the strength and quantity of the Awakening Abilities, all affect how powerful the soul will become after Spirit Ascension.

Each additional level of Martial Arts Cultivation and each new Awakening Ability strengthen the soul, hastening the Spirit Ascension stage and achieving Yang Transformation.

He thought for a long time and finally pinpointed what he felt was amiss. He couldn't help but look towards Qing Ya, then asked, "Teacher, I have a question."

"Since Spirit Ascension actually depends on the strength of the soul..."

"Then... why do we go through all the hard work of training our bodies in the early stages?"

"After all that hard training, is it just to give it all up in the end?"

Hearing Fang Ze's words, Qing Ya also fell silent for a while.

After a moment, she slowly said,

"There are two reasons, I guess."

"First, before the Spirit Ascension stage, ordinary Awakeners actually have no way of training their souls."

"Or rather, even if there is a way, it's extremely difficult."

"While cultivating Martial Arts seems to be just physical training, it is also a tempering of the soul. The soul becomes stronger with each cultivation."

"Second, the energy required for the Spirit Ascension stage is tremendous. Simply relying on the force of the soul to ascend is impossible. Hence, generally speaking, all Fusers need to burn the physical body, using it as provision to temper the soul and break through the world's barriers."

"At this time, the stronger the body, the more energy it can provide, the more substantial the soul becomes, and the easier it is to shatter the world's barriers."

Honestly, as Qing Ya explained this, there was a slight look of loss on her face.

After all, for someone who was deeply passionate about Martial Arts, having to give up a lifetime's worth of cultivation just to ascend was indeed very hard to accept.

But as a teacher, she couldn't guide her students based on her personal feelings but had to remain objective.

So, in the end, she set aside the look of loss on her face, and added, "Actually, over the past few decades, many people have had the same doubts as you and have tried other paths."
