In a high-level martial arts game, a wife is given to you at the start.

Chapter 273 Extraordinary Path

The heavy alloy doors of the training room slammed shut, shutting out everything from the outside world.

Si Qingwan's usually affectionate peach blossom eyes were now devoid of any of their usual languor and allure; instead, they were filled with unprecedented surprise.

"You..." She walked up to Lin Qiye, her voice trembling slightly, a tremor she herself didn't even realize. "What you said on the call... was it true? You weren't joking?"

She needs to confirm again.

This matter was so absurd that it completely exceeded her understanding of common sense about martial arts.

Looking into her eyes, which were filled with tension and concern, Lin Qiye calmly nodded: "Yes, my genetic potential is now 97%."

Although he couldn't explain the existence of the system, he chose to be only moderately honest with Si Qingwan.

Upon receiving this affirmative answer, Si Qingwan felt as if her breath had stopped for a moment.

It's only been...only two months, right?

From less than 20% genetic potential when enrolling, to 97% now?!

Si Qingwan felt that her brain was completely overwhelmed.

She took a sudden step forward, her usually affectionate peach blossom eyes now like the most sophisticated detectors, locked onto Lin Qiye.

Her delicate, upturned nose twitched slightly as she carefully sniffed the air, her sharp gaze scanning him inch by inch like a scanner.

There is no abyss pollution.

Not a single bit.

If even you cannot detect the traces of the abyss's corruption, then there is no need to doubt it further.

Having doubts is useless.

"A genius...a genius among geniuses..." Si Qingwan murmured to herself, her usually charming face filled with indescribable shock.

Suddenly, something occurred to her, and her beautiful peach blossom eyes lit up!

"What stage have you reached in your cultivation of the Primordial Qi Gong?"

Lin Qiye looked at her and calmly replied, "You've entered the inner sanctum."

"It's almost complete, isn't it?" Si Qingwan's tone was full of undeniable certainty.

Lin Qiye looked at her, surprised that she had seen things so accurately, and slowly nodded.

"Just as I expected!"

Si Qingwan let out a long breath, and her heart, which had been pounding violently from extreme shock, finally calmed down a little.

She looked at Lin Qiye with an incredibly complex expression, as if she were looking at a living legend.

"All of this is because of your extraordinary comprehension, which has allowed you to cultivate the ancient technique of 'Primordial Qi Gong' to an extremely profound level."

Hunyuan Qigong is easy to learn but difficult to master!

This is a consensus across the entire industry.

However, once this technique is cultivated to perfection, the resulting leap in life level is enough to allow the cultivator to directly open the door to the extraordinary!

but……

Si Qingwan was silently calculating in her mind.

For an ordinary genius, it would be impossible to master this technique without ten or even several decades of hard work.

And what about the boy in front of you?

From the time I enrolled until now, it's only been two or three months at most, right?

What a prodigy!

Looking at Si Qingwan's complicated expression, Lin Qiye felt both amused and exasperated.

Is it really necessary to be so surprised?

He composed himself and steered the conversation back on track: "So, can I understand that I don't need to worry about anything? As long as I continue cultivating the 'Primordial Qi Gong,' it's okay to directly break through to 100% of my genetic potential when I reach perfection?"

Si Qingwan nodded slowly, her charming face becoming extremely serious.

"100% is the theoretical limit of human genetic potential. After all, that's already the maximum," she explained. "But humans are always pursuing limits, progress, and the unknown. From the moment the first pioneer reached 100% of their genetic potential, we have been exploring ways to surpass that limit."

"However, it is like an invisible chasm, a chasm that divides 'mortals' from 'extraordinary' beings. For a long time, everyone who tried to cross this chasm returned empty-handed."

"It's not that we came back empty-handed," her voice lowered, "but... an unexpected incident occurred that we didn't want to see."

"What accident?" Lin Qiye asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Si Qingwan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "You really don't know anything?"

Lin Qiye shook his head frankly.

What does he know? There was nothing this advanced in the textbooks back in high school. I don’t even know if their third-rate high school has ever produced a student with a genetic potential of more than 10%.

After entering university, he devoted himself to cultivation and was very busy, so he naturally didn't have time to learn about martial arts history.

Besides, instead of spending time searching through the vast amount of information in the library, it's better to just ask Si Qingwan directly.

Si Qingwan was speechless at his self-righteous ignorance, but the sense of imbalance she felt from being shocked by his extraordinary talent miraculously eased a little.

Well, at least in some aspects, I can still crush him.

She lost the playful glint in her eyes, her expression turning incredibly serious, and said, word by word, "The accident was—flesh and blood mutation."

"For people who have exceeded 100% of their genetic potential, the portion of their genes that exceeds 100% no longer originates from our own human genes."

"This is also..." Si Qingwan's voice suddenly realized, "the beginning of humanity attracting the attention of the Abyss."

"It wasn't until the first person cultivated the Primordial Qi Gong to perfection that the first safe and feasible path was shown to later generations of humanity."

"However, it was also an extremely difficult path." Si Qingwan's tone carried a hint of regret.

"After all, the Primordial Qi Cultivation Technique is the most difficult cultivation method to master. Historically, few of the descendants of those who cultivated it to a high level have been able to follow in their footsteps and cultivate it to a high level as well."

"After so many tens of thousands of years of research, it can be basically confirmed that the cultivation tips, cultivation experience, and even the insights gained during each breakthrough of the Hunyuan Qi Gong are deeply bound to the cultivator himself."

"In other words, other people's experiences are of almost no reference value to you, and may even mislead you and affect your further cultivation."

Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully.

He recalled that when he first obtained this skill, it was through the school's official "Ancient Books Research Support" project.

To put it simply, the government provides funding and resources to encourage students to study these ancient techniques that have been phased out by the times, hoping to discover new value from them, revitalize them, and make them more practical.
