Atlas of Heaven and Man

Because he had experienced quite a few things on his first day of school, Chen Chuan was also preparing to rest early.

Looking at the schedule, there would be open classes starting tomorrow. Before a guidance teacher was assigned, he thought he could go take a look first. So, after a quick wash, he went to sleep.

The next day at six o'clock, he had just finished washing up and was about to go out for exercise when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Who could it be so early?

He walked over and opened the door, seeing a middle-aged man standing outside wearing a white shirt and a diagonally striped tie, neither thin nor fat.

He had his coat draped over his arm and a briefcase tucked under his arm. He looked to be about forty or fifty years old, with thick eyebrows and large eyes. Although his face looked somewhat round now, one could tell he was a handsome young man in his youth.

He was also holding a pair of decorative sunglasses and a name card in his hand, waving it at him, "Student Chen? Hello."

He then smiled and said, "I am your guidance teacher, Cheng Zitong. You can call me Teacher Cheng, or Old Cheng is fine too."

Chen Chuan glanced at the name card and immediately responded politely, "Hello, Teacher Cheng."

However, he recalled that among the information given by the dormitory supervisor, there didn't seem to be a teacher with the surname Cheng?

"It's very sudden, right?" Teacher Cheng said with a smile, "It's not just students who choose teachers; teachers can also choose students. I looked at your resume, not bad, a good prospect, so I came to find you."

He picked up his briefcase, took out a stack of paper, and handed it to him, "These are some records of some students who graduated from Wu Yi University in the past, some information from when they were seventeen to when they were thirty-seven. You don't need to look at the front, pay attention to the back, yes, turn to the back."

Chen Chuan flipped through the information to the back and quickly discovered that these Wu Yi University students, starting from their twenties and thirties, almost all had medical and surgical records, and very frequently. Some individuals even had such situations before they were twenty.

Cheng Zitong said, "See that?"

Chen Chuan raised his head and asked, "Teacher Cheng, what is the reason for this? Is it because excessive training during the learning period led to physical injuries and illnesses?"

Cheng Zitong shook his head, "It would be good if that were the case. We have to talk about this slowly."

Chen Chuan said, "Please enlighten me, teacher."

"Don't be so polite."

Although he said that, Cheng Zitong was still very satisfied with his attitude. He continued, "You have already started practicing the breathing technique and can feel the benefits it brings, but you may not understand what is truly hidden beneath the breathing technique."

Chen Chuan couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"

Cheng Zitong said, "With the promotion of the breathing technique, your body's resistance, the strength of your internal organs, the load-bearing capacity of your bones, and even all aspects of your body will undergo qualitative leaps. You should be able to feel that after having the breathing technique, you have distanced yourself from ordinary people who have not started practicing, and are improving every day."

Chen Chuan nodded, "That's right."

"But this will also bring another effect," Cheng Zitong said slowly, "Some originally non-existent tissues and organs will grow in your body, which we call alienized tissues. For example..."

He pointed to Chen Chuan, "Under the stimulation of the breathing technique, your body will first grow some extra fascia tissues, and the reason why fighting experts can exert strength beyond ordinary people is due to the existence of these tissues.

And when such tissues appear in your body and continue to grow, in the beginning, your body will feel itchy or hot. At that time, you will clearly feel that your physical fitness in all aspects is rapidly increasing."

Chen Chuan's heart trembled. He couldn't help but think of the symptoms of body heat he felt shortly after starting to practice the breathing technique, and even asked Yu Gang about it. The improvement in physical fitness may be because his breathing technique has been maintained for a long time, and he hasn't stopped even now.

Seeing his reaction, Cheng Zitong said, "It seems you have already experienced it, but don't be nervous. That shows your body is very good and very suitable for practicing fighting. You should know that some people are even born with some alienized tissues. Such people are also called people with innate 'talent'."

"But this situation cannot be left unchecked, especially after fighting training, after a long period of conscious external stimulation, it will make these tissues grow rapidly. If there is no suitable guidance, and these tissues and organs are allowed to grow wildly, it may lightly encroach on the normal functions of some tissues in the body, leading to the occurrence of various diseases. At that time, you will have to surgically remove some tissues. More seriously, it will cause畸变 or simply lose your life."

Chen Chuan thought for a while and asked, "Teacher Cheng, I wonder how long it takes for this problem to occur?"

Teacher Cheng tapped his knee with the decorative sunglasses in his hand and said, "It varies from person to person. Everything in the world has its advantages and disadvantages. The more talented a person is, the faster the alienized tissues grow, and the higher the upper limit."

He gestured towards the information with his chin, "The shortest time above is less than a year, yes, less than a year, to be precise, eleven months. I ask you, how long has it been since you started mastering the breathing technique until now?"

Chen Chuan replied, "Three months."

Cheng Zitong pondered, "Three months, ah..."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment, and realized that the Second Me might not be able to solve this matter.

Because currently, the Second Me can only bear some direct, rigid damage. However, the premise of removing damage is to first have a complete "self," and these tissues are also regarded as part of "me." This is like how he cannot move his own blood and internal organs out of thin air.

The Second Me's future changes are unknown, but at least for now, it is impossible to do such a thing.

So, he asked, "Then, Teacher Cheng, how should this be avoided?"

"Don't see this as something too terrifying," Cheng Zitong waved his hand and said seriously, "You should face it squarely. I even think it is a gift from God. Without this alienized tissue, the original human body cannot surpass its limits. But if we can make it work for us, then it may become a stepping stone for us to move upwards.

"Coincidentally, fighting techniques are such a method.

"Yes, although fighting techniques will stimulate tissues, if orderly guidance is carried out, then it is possible to turn harm into benefit. But the premise is that the guidance method is correct."

Chen Chuan asked seriously, "May I ask, Teacher Cheng, what counts as an orderly and correct method?"

Cheng Zitong instructed, "Sit still."

He stood up and reached out to pinch Chen Chuan's shoulders, hands, feet, joints, neck, and spine. Chen Chuan could feel a slight tingling sensation from the places his hands touched.

Cheng Zitong frowned and said, "Progressing so quickly, have you really only been practicing for three months? Some people may not reach your level even after three years of practice. It should be innate talent..."

He sat back, looking serious, "It seems I need to speed up your progress, or things might go wrong if you continue like this."

Chen Chuan still seemed relatively calm and asked, "According to Teacher Cheng's words, how long will it take for me to experience that kind of situation?"

"Hmm..." Cheng Zitong said in a deep voice, "Hard to say. The most optimistic estimate is half a year. If it's faster, your alienized tissues may become difficult to restrain within two or three months. At that time, if you want to protect your health and even your life, you may have to consider taking the least ideal methods."

Chen Chuan didn't ask what those methods were, but he could guess some.

Cheng Zitong said solemnly, "You should be practicing the basic breathing technique. Starting tomorrow, I will begin teaching you a higher level of breathing technique, and you must master Jin force as soon as possible, as soon as possible! Even if it's just minor Jin, that will allow your alienized fascia to grow in the direction you need, rather than growing on its own.

"If, after ten days, you don't feel any stabbing pain, soreness, numbness, or swelling in your body, then it means your direction is temporarily correct, and we can continue training. If it's not right, we need to adjust it again until you have mastered the complete Jin force. This can be considered as overcoming a difficult hurdle.

"But that doesn't mean it's over. If your alienized tissues are still growing at that time, then you have to find a way to enter the next stage, continuing until the first rapid growth period slows down. Only then can you breathe a sigh of relief."

He looked at Chen Chuan and said very seriously, "Since I have decided to be your guidance teacher, no matter how difficult it is, I will help you overcome this difficulty. But this requires your own determination, otherwise, no matter how hard I work, it will be useless. I don't know what your answer is?"

Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Cheng, thank you for telling me this. You know, after hearing your words, my first reaction was actually happiness."

"Happiness?"

Chen Chuan nodded. He looked out the window, his eyes full of longing, "Those powers beyond common sense can allow people to break free from their original constraints, take people to higher places, and appreciate the scenery there." He turned his head and looked at Cheng Zitong, saying with utmost sincerity, "Teacher Cheng, I will do my best because this is exactly what I am pursuing and expecting."
