I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 1676: Chapter 115: If You Desire to Take, You Must First Give

“If we talk solely about might, before creating a system, the specialized extreme Spiritual Power far surpassed the balanced and moderate Spiritual Power that encompasses all the Five Elements. Even after the completion of the Five Elements system, the comparison with such domineering specialized Spiritual Power is merely a matter of different merits, without any absolute hegemony.”

“But why do groups that cultivate the righteous path grow stronger day by day, while those notorious demonic techniques and heretical methods from ancient times wane? To a great extent, it is related to lifespan. The positive impact of balanced and grand Spiritual Power on one’s lifespan is significant. Cultivators with longer lives have more time to breakthrough, offering opportunities to disciples of ordinary or above-average talent.”

“On the other hand, those who cultivate biased and domineering techniques, except for disciples with extraordinary talent, almost never have the chance for lower and middle-ranked disciples to achieve breakthroughs. Over time, heretical practitioners increasingly disdain ordinary disciples, preferring to recruit only those with stunning talents for an easy solution. Yet they forget to seek the cause within their own techniques for their decline, which then becomes only natural.”

“Looking at the techniques of the current sacred lands and sects, which is not balanced and grand? Can it be that those martial arts researchers do not understand that this kind of moderate Spiritual Power is at a disadvantage in battle? That’s impossible. Thus, we can determine that the type of Spiritual Power has the greatest positive influence on lifespan!”

“Secondly, the other factor influencing lifespan is the physical body and vitality. However, the key to preserving vitality and maintaining the physical body is not through workout. It is to reduce strife. Whether it is the meridians torn by surging Spiritual Power during battle, or the external physical body wounded by Spirit Arts or weapons, all affect the overall vitality.”

“The process of restoring the physical body is by no means healing, but rather a compensatory depletion of the original essence before its time. An injury is an injury, even for an Innate Dao Body that contains a breath of innate true qi, it is only because they have more substantial origins and vigorous vitality than ordinary people. But this substantiality and vigor are not endless, and if one crosses the limit through relentless conquest, irreversible damage will still be inflicted on the physical body.”
