Chapter 692 Why Didn’t Anyone Mention That Breathing Qi Feels Like Swallowing Broken Glass?

Chapter 692: Chapter 692 Why Didn’t Anyone Mention That Breathing Qi Feels Like Swallowing Broken Glass?

All the while, watching the heartfelt scene unfold before him, Lin Feng could not help but smile.

Shen Yue’s unrestrained joy, the way she had thrown herself into his arms without a trace of hesitation, and the tender embrace she now shared with her master and all of it settled warmly in his chest.

There were many good things in the world.

Power, wealth, and longevity each had their place.

Yet in that quiet moment he was reminded once again that helping someone and truly freeing them from suffering and watching them reclaim their life was perhaps one of the most meaningful things a person could do.

A few minutes later, Shen Yue finally finished hugging her master.

Her emotions had settled down considerably by then.

She quickly put her white dress and undergarments back on before standing properly in front of Lin Feng.

Even after getting dressed, however, the fierce blush on her beautiful face had yet to disappear.

She lowered her head slightly, clearly still embarrassed by everything that had happened, but there was also genuine gratitude in her eyes.

She took a deep breath before bowing deeply toward Lin Feng.

"Thank you so much for the gift of healing, Senior Lin Feng!" Shen Yue said sincerely.

Lin Feng waved his hand casually.

"It was only a minor matter. Seeing that you can finally cultivate without experiencing that unbearable pain is already enough to satisfy me."

For Lin Feng, there was no need for excessive gratitude.

He had merely solved a problem that had been troubling Shen Yue for a long time.

Watching a cultivator suffer every time she circulated her spiritual energy was something he could not simply ignore, especially when the solution was so simple once the root cause had been identified.

Qin Yuan, who had been standing nearby, couldn’t help but become curious.

She looked at her disciple before turning her attention back to Lin Feng.

"Senior Lin Feng, if I may ask, could you tell us why my disciple experienced such severe pain whenever she cultivated before?"

Since Shen Yue herself was still too embarrassed to ask, Qin Yuan naturally asked on her behalf.

Lin Feng nodded.

"It is actually a very simple matter."

Both Qin Yuan and Shen Yue immediately focused on him.

"The cultivation technique your disciple has been practicing does not suit her."

Shen Yue’s eyes widened.

"But that’s impossible, Senior Lin Feng!"

She looked genuinely shocked.

"I practice one of the strongest immortal techniques in my clan!"

She had grown up hearing about how extraordinary that cultivation technique was.

Countless elders had praised it as one of the clan’s greatest inheritances.

It was powerful, profound, and incredibly difficult to obtain.

To her, there was no possibility that such an amazing technique could be the source of her problem.

Lin Feng, however, merely shook his head.

"And that is exactly where you are mistaken."

His tone remained calm and matter-of-fact.

"You can possess the strongest cultivation technique in the world, but that does not mean it is the strongest technique for you."

Shen Yue fell silent.

"A cultivation technique is ultimately a method of guiding and transforming your spiritual energy," Lin Feng continued.

"Every person has a different constitution, different meridians, different bloodline, different spiritual roots, and even a different natural affinity toward certain types of energy."

"If the technique complements your nature, cultivation becomes smoother. Your spiritual energy flows naturally, your meridians are nourished, and your cultivation steadily improves."

"But if the technique is fundamentally incompatible with you, then forcing yourself to practice it will only create problems."

His expression became slightly more serious.

"The stronger the technique is, the worse the consequences can become if you are fundamentally unsuited to it."

Shen Yue listened carefully.

"The pain you experienced was your body’s way of warning you," Lin Feng continued.

"Your meridians were telling you that something was wrong. Your spiritual energy was resisting the cultivation method rather than harmonizing with it."

"When that happened, you should have stopped."

Shen Yue lowered her head.

"But..."

She hesitated before speaking in a small voice.

"You can’t blame me, Senior Lin Feng. I really thought that kind of pain was just a normal part of cultivation."

Qin Yuan sighed helplessly upon hearing this.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, couldn’t help but smile.

"Many cultivators make that same mistake."

His voice softened.

"They believe that suffering automatically means they are making progress. They think that the more painful something is, the greater the reward will be."

"But cultivation isn’t about torturing yourself."

Lin Feng looked directly at Shen Yue.

"Pain is sometimes unavoidable on the path to becoming stronger. However, pain is also a warning. A wise cultivator must learn the difference."

"If your body tells you something is wrong, you should listen."

"Never blindly force yourself down a path simply because someone told you it was powerful."

Shen Yue nodded slowly.

She finally understood why she had spent so many years suffering despite possessing such a powerful cultivation technique.

It wasn’t because she lacked talent.

It wasn’t because she had been cursed.

And it certainly wasn’t because cultivation was supposed to be unbearably painful.

She had simply been walking down the wrong path.

For the first time in years, Shen Yue felt as though a tremendous weight had finally been lifted from her shoulders.

"Thank you, Senior Lin Feng. I’ll return to my clan and find a cultivation technique that is better suited for my physique," Shen Yue said sincerely.

Lin Feng nodded, but after thinking for a moment, he reached into his storage treasure and took out a cultivation manual.

"Hmmm... there’s no need to rush back."

He handed the manual to Shen Yue.

"Take this. This cultivation technique suits your physique very well. You can use it as a starting point. If you happen to find an even better technique in the future, you can always change again."

Shen Yue carefully accepted the manual with both hands.

"You’ll be surprised by how quickly your cultivation progresses once you finally practice something that truly suits you," Lin Feng continued.
