The Five Acupoints Skyward Practices (五心向天修炼法, lit. "Five Hearts to Heaven Cultivation Method") also known as Wu Xin Xiang Tian Technique is the only foundational technique for absorbing cosmic energy or Universe Energy (宇宙能量) on Earth. The technique was developed after the Great Nirvana with countless trials, errors and editions to allow talented Apprentice Level 1 further progress after their genes optimized to a certain extent. This foundational technique requires a dao yin technique to improve its absorption capacity, such as the hybrid technique, Nine Stage Thunder Blade.
In the novel, Wu Xin Xiang Tian Technique was presented to Luo Feng, Yang Wu and Bai Yang by Extreme Martial Club Instructor Jiang Nian, before Luo Feng entered the Yi'an detention center.[1][2]
Description[]
When Universe Energy entered the cells, it was quickly absorbed by the mitochondria and at the same time. With the mitochondrial conversion, the cosmic energy will be turned into genetic energy. This genetic energy was then absorbed by the cell, which started evolving the cell. When Universe Energy entered the brain or the conscious realm or the mind, it will be transformed into spiritual energy by a dark gold ball for the Apprentice Level Spirit Master.
The reason why the fighters have such powerful bodies, why some of the top fighters can surpass mach speed! Why their knives can slice through thick steel is because they rely on genetic energy.
Back when humanity was infected by the RR virus in the Grand Nirvana period, our genes started evolving to fight against the virus. When the genes evolve to a certain point, it's able to absorb the faint energies of the cosmos. The energy envelops every cell of your body! During this process, your genes, bones, cells, blood, organs, and skin will all continue to evolve and become stronger. Your bones can become tens to hundreds of times harder than diamonds. Your organs will be powerful enough to hold your breath in water for half an hour, and longer. All of this relies on the energy you absorb and envelop your cells with. It becomes your power, in other words--genetic energy.
Normal people aren't able to train this because their genes weren't suitable. Once your fist strength reaches 900 kg, your speed reaches 25 m/s, and your reaction speed all pass the mark required for a prospective fighter, then your genes were ready for training. 90% of prospective fighters are able to start training.
Once someone reaches the body fitness level of a fighter, they usually are able to start their genetic energy training right away, the first step to feel the cosmic energy is the hardest. To absorb the cosmic energy, you need to be able to sense them first. This energy is spread around the earth. Even the stars in the universe has this energy. However most people can't detect the presence of the energy. As long as you can feel them, it'll be easy to absorb them. The talented people can sense the energies on their first day of training. The less talented fighters take up to one and a half years just to sense the energy.
This Technique is based on meditation and concentration, first adjusted the breathing and kept the position of the Wu Xin Xiang Tian technique. The Wu Xin (Five Hearts) refers to 'the two soles, the two palms, and the main artery in the head'. Relaxed and quiet, these were the two points that the Wu Xin Xiang Tian technique stressed the most in meditative state. According to the training guide, humans, starting from birth, were unable to absorb the energies. So in a state of starvation, when you absorb the energies for the first time, you absorb the highest amount. Which is also the time of the quickest strength boost. Once you pass the prospective fighter test, many people can start their genetic energy training. Even if you don't sense it consciously, your body slowly absorbs it unconsciously.
Quoted Experience[]

Breathe……
Luo Feng's breathing slowly stabilized. As he stabilized himself, Luo Feng could feel his heart becoming calm.
"My body has to loosen up. The Wu Xin Xiang Tian is a natural process. I have to calm my heart, calm my heart like a lake in the reflection of a mirror" Luo Feng's self control was good so he was able to slowly calm himself, even his heart was calmed.
It was completely silent. His breathing could barely be heard.
One minute, two minutes…… thirty minutes, one hour……
"Hm?" Luo Feng suddenly opened his eyes, "Where is this so called energy? How come I can't sense it? My heart and body should've been very calm just now. Maybe, like the article said, a talented person can succeed on the first day, but an untalented person would take one and a half years to sense the energy?"
"I'll try again" Luo Feng shut his eyes and tried to feel the energy described in the article.
"Still not right" Half an hour later, Luo Feng opened his eyes.
Luo Feng has witnessed that the first stage of genetic energy training--feeling, is very difficult.
"I'll try one last time. If I don't succeed I'll wait until tomorrow night. I hope I can succeed" Luo Feng hoped in his heart, shut his eyes, and started to calm himself again in order to sense the energy.
Time passed slowly, ten minutes…… thirty minutes…… fifty minutes…… one hour and twenty minutes……
"How come it's still not working?"
In his almost meditative state, Luo Feng's thoughts started to slow down too.
Slowly……
In this almost meditative state, Luo Feng had a bit of hope in the bottom of his heart, hoping to sense the energy. However, as time passed, Luo Feng was falling asleep! A normal person who thinks of nothing and closes his eyes for half an hour at late night would fall asleep, and Luo Feng has been going at this for three hours already.
About to fall asleep, Luo Feng forgot to try and sense the energy.
"So comfortable"
Luo Feng, who was falling asleep, felt a faint energy go through his soles, palms, and the major artery of his head. At a slow steady rate, it entered his body.
"What is this?" Luo Feng was still half asleep.
"It's the energy!!!" Luo Feng abruptly woke up and opened his eyes. The feeling he had before immediately disappeared.
Luo Feng never thought that he would be able to sense the energy when he was about to fall asleep.
"I felt it, I felt it, that must be the energy I was looking for" Luo Feng was extremely happy inside, "According to the article, once you pass the prospective fighter test, many people can start their genetic energy training. Even if you don't sense it consciously, your body slowly absorbs it unconsciously"
Luo Feng knew that the feeling just now meant that he was absorbing the energy. However, this kind of absorption speed was much too slow.
"It's that kind of feeling"
Luo Feng shut his eyes and tried to sense it again. He stabilized his breathing and calmed his heart. His consciousness focused on the soles of his feet, the palms of his hands, and the artery of his head. He tried to sense the energy he just felt.
He felt like he sensed the energy, but at the same time he felt like he didn't.
Slowly, the feeling was getting clearer and clearer.
It's this!
A very small thing like a breath floated slowly. When it neared Luo Feng's soles, it seeped in slowly.
"This is the energy" Luo Feng focused on the 'Wu Xin' and he focused on absorbing the energies. Naturally, the speed of which his soles, palms, and his head's artery absorb energy increased; it instantly neared to a hundred times the speed.
If we say that the energies seeped in like a few drops of water from a crack in a water pipe at the beginning…
Then now, the crack is larger and, like a small river, the energies incessantly flowed into Luo Feng's body.
"Ah~~~" The feeling made him shiver to the bone. The shapeless, colorless energy entered Luo Feng's body. The starving and thirsting cells crazily gobbled up the energy which came in from five different paths.
Inside the cell.
As the energies entered the cells, it was quickly absorbed by the mitochondria and at the same time, let out a strange energy. This energy was absorbed by the cell, which started causing earth shattering changes. The DNA blueprints were also beginning to change slightly, and the cell started dividing, one into two.
Time passed slowly……
Luo Feng's body kept changing, whether it was the surface of the skin, the muscles, the bones, and even the layers of every single cell, every part of the body has changed. This change is life's evolution, an enhancement of life's genes!
"According to the training guide, humans, starting from birth, were unable to absorb the energies. So in a state of starvation, when you absorb the energies for the first time, you absorb the highest amount. Which is also the time of the quickest strength boost!" Luo Feng felt his fitness level changing.
On the earth and in the entire universe, there is an infinite amount of energy. The amount of which Luo Feng just absorbed is negligible.
However, to Luo Feng, this is the biggest jump in strength he has ever had.
The density of his bones increased, the cells reduced their volumes and split into two, the muscle fibers were enhancing themselves, and Luo Feng's body weight kept increasing.
Life, is so peculiar!
In the brain.
In a place where Luo Feng couldn't sense, the energies flowed in the depths of his brain. Since birth until now, the three shocks to the depths of his brain caused three comas. And tonight, a huge amount of energies were flowing in.
However, this change was different from the other three times, it was more faint…… Luo Feng, who was training, didn't notice it at all.
"
"
After something like a tremor of a soul, Luo Feng surprisingly found out…… that his consciousness has moved to a very mysterious place.
This mysterious place had no borders or walls, it was just an infinite expanse of fog. In this fog, there was a dark, golden ball. This dark, golden ball was like a star that slowly rotated by itself, while releasing a stream of fog. This mysterious place's fog kept increasing.
"This fog…… is, is the spiritual force?" Luo Feng easily felt the energy in the fog; it was his spiritual force that he used to control things.
"Also--"
Luo Feng clearly saw a stream of transparent energy leak into this mysterious place; the energy quickly assimilated into the fog's energy. Luo Feng could feel that the transparent energy was the cosmic energy.
"This fog is the spiritual force, and this transparent energy is the cosmic energy. The cosmic energy is sucked into here and transformed into spiritual force. My spiritual force extends from my brain" Luo Feng was shocked, "This place is my brain? Or should I say, my conscious realm?"
The conscious realm is a special title fighters use for the mind.
"Why is there a dark, golden ball in the middle of my conscious realm?" Luo Feng observed as this dark golden ball constantly rotated by itself and released the fog (spiritual force). As it released the spiritual force, Luo Feng's mind was also comfortable.
"This dark, golden ball might be the cause for all my comas" Luo Feng had an intuition.
"A dark, golden ball releasing spiritual force?"
"In the past, I didn't have any spiritual force. I only had it after this time's coma" Luo Feng thought, "Then with this time's coma, this dark, golden ball released a large amount of spiritual force. Not only did it grant me the power of telekinesis, but it also enhanced my body"
His fitness level was strong, but compared to telekinesis, it was nothing.
"RIght"
"When the prisoners were attacking me, one of them threw a knife. That knife suddenly changed direction when it was about to pierce through my shoulder. I guess that was because of my spiritual force" Luo Feng easily deducted the truth from the situation.
Indeed, the dark, golden ball did release a large amount of spiritual force from this time's coma.
However, when Luo Feng first started doing genetic energy training on his first night in jail, the cosmic energy started triggering changes in his conscious realm. Even without the throwing knife, the dark, golden ball was already releasing a large amount of spiritual force. As time passed, it built up and gave him the power of telekinesis.
The throwing knife attack only caused Luo Feng to awaken earlier.
"There's a 90% chance that this dark, golden ball was acting up and caused my comas as a result. However, now that the dark, golden ball is constantly releasing spiritual force, I shouldn't be going into a coma anymore" Luo Feng thought that, like a dam holding back water, the dark, golden ball couldn't release any spiritual force.
