“I am not interested in immortal cultivation practices.”

Li Fan could remember the indifferent expression on Xiao Heng’s face as though it were yesterday when he said these words.

How long has it been since then? How has he removed his inner miasma and advanced directly to the Energy Refining Stage?

Li Fan was overwhelmed with shock and bewilderment.

He read over the letter Xiao Heng had sent him several times, and after going out and asking around, he finally had to unwillingly accept the reality.

It turned out that despite Li Fan’s earnest assurances that day, telling him that the rumours on the island were directed at Tianbao Building, Xiao Heng still couldn’t set his mind at ease after returning home. He had difficulty sleeping.

Every time he closed his eyes, he seemed to see a horrifying scene where an Immortal Teacher descended from heaven and killed everyone on Liuli Island.

For several days, Xiao Heng continued to be tormented by such thoughts.

In deep pain, Xiao Heng finally made up his mind.

In order to sleep peacefully, and to be a cultivator no longer living in fear, he began to earnestly cultivate “The Mysterious Yellow Heart-Purifying Mantra”.

To his surprise, once Xiao Heng concentrated, his cultivation progress progressed rapidly.

With the assistance of medicine, he was able to completely eliminate his internal miasma in less than a month’s time.

Then he came to realize that the Heavenlv and Earthlv SDiritual Enerzv seemed like living beings, lingering and roaming around him affectionately.

He was deeply fascinated by this scene, and his spirit indulged in it. After having a good night’s sleep, he successfully drew this energy into his body.

At first, he was a little unsure whether he had become the legendary Immortal Teacher.

However, when he unintentionally killed a maidservant in his home during an intimate moment due to a sudden palpitation, Xiao Heng finally confirmed that he had become a cultivator.

A clear distinction needs to be made between immortals and mortals.

Although he had advanced to the Energy Refining Stage, Xiao Heng was completely clueless about what he should do next.

So he wanted to meet the Presiding Immortal Teacher of Liuli Island.

Unfortunately, at that time, He Zhenghao was busy conducting the Spirit Pond Purification Array and couldn’t spare the time.

Xiao Heng could only return home and wait patiently.

After Li Fan came out of the Spirit Pool and He Zhenghao finally had some free time, Xiao Heng finally got to meet him.

Upon hearing Xiao Heng’s experiences and conducting a careful investigation to confirm the truth of the matter, He Zhenghao was delighted at first, but then began to regret something greatly.

After a while, he cheered up and couldn’t wait to take Xiao Heng to Ten Thousand Immortals Island.

When Xiao Heng asked for leave to bid his friends goodbye, He Zhenghao naturally agreed.

Afterwards, Xiao Heng said goodbye to everyone one by one and then departed.

As for Li Fan, Xiao Heng wanted to leave him.

But he knew that Li Fan’s heart was set on cultivating, and it took him more than three years to succeed in purification.

Not long ago, he had said plainly in front of Li Fan that he had no interest in immortal cultivation, but yet he had become an Energy Refining Cultivator in the blink of an eye!

Embarrassed and not knowing how to face Li Fan, and also fearing that he might upset him, Xiao Heng left a letter, entrusting someone to deliver it over.

Grateful for Li Fan’s repeated help, Xiao Heng told him that he would be waiting for him on Ten Thousand Immortals Island, and that he would definitely repay Li Fan in time.

“Today, I owe all my success to your kind protection.”

“I heard that you’ve successfully removed the miasma, and you will undoubtedly break through to the Energy Refining stage soon.”

“I will take a step ahead and await you on Ten Thousand Immortals Island.”

“When we meet, I will not refuse your request, even if it means risking my life.”

“Sincerely, Heng.”

Li Fan put down Xiao Heng’s letter and exhaled.

Is this what they call a person with exceptional natural talent in the legends?

Without any assistance, he stumbled into the Energy Refining stage purely by accident.

He was even able to sense the affection of the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Energy toward him…

Though he had long known that the talent of cultivators varies, and he himself was not particularly gifted, the feeling of having such a genius right by his side…

It’s truly unbearable.

It seems Xiao Heng’s worries are not groundless. If he had suddenly appeared in front of me just after I had succeeded in dispelling the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma, I might indeed have lost my composure.

Li Fan gave a bitter smile.

But it would merely have been a minor disturbance in his state of mind.

Li Fan knew clearly that his reliance was never on his natural talent, but on the countless opportunities to start over granted by [Real].

Having [Real] on his side, no matter the genius, he had the confidence to crush them.

However, this process might take a long time, requiring careful planning over lifetime after lifetime.

The Heart-Refining Spell started to rotate, bringing Li Fan’s chaotic mind gradually to peace.

He opened the “The Technique of Sensing Energy with the Five Spirits,” given by He Zhenghao, and began to read it slowly and carefully.

The book states that in ancient times, there was the concept of spiritual roots.

Back then, only mortals with spiritual roots could cultivate.

There were common spiritual roots of the Five Elements – gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as unusual attributes such as thunder, wind, and darkness.

Those with a single spiritual root could cultivate quickly in the early stages.

They specialized in corresponding techniques and could easily reach mastery.

Those with numerous spiritual roots had slower progress as they had to accommodate various attributes. They were likely to waste energy for naught. However, once a genius arises among them, evenly mastering multiple spiritual roots, their strength often surpasses those with single spiritual roots at the same stage.

However, these are all tales of bygone days.

In the ancient times, the Immortal Cultivation World believed in the Unity-Path.

Spiritual roots were gifts from the heaven and only blessed individuals could sense the Heaven-Earth Principle and had the qualification for Immortal Way cultivation.

But the world consists of a vast majority of mortals, and only a few are blessed with spiritual roots.

The majority could only dream about cultivating, far from reaching it.

How unfair is this?

Luckily, during the ancient times, the Immortal Teacher had imparted his teachings!

The “Technique of Sensing Energy with the Five Spirits” recalls that the Immortal Teacher observed the heavens, regarded the earth, standing in front of countless mortals longing for immortality, and imparted the secrets of longevity.

The Immortal Teacher declared: To become immortal, why should path seek the acceptance of heaven? If heaven does not give it to me, I will take it myself!

If you follow heaven, you remain mortal; if you resist heaven, you become an immortal!

Ordinary people, coveting longevity, do not need to pursue unity with heaven but must compete with it!contemporary romance

Thus, the Immortal Teacher established his teachings and imparted his dao to the public.

That is the way of cultivation adhered to by today’s Immortal Cultivation World.

The way to immortality is as follows:

Absorb the spirit of Heaven and Earth, to master its energy; Borrow the wonder of Heaven and Earth, to build the Tao Foundation;

Peep the law of Heaven and Earth, to refine the Golden Pill;

Snatch the essence of Heaven and Earth, to form the Nascent Soul;

Extract the marrow of Heaven and Earth, to gain its spirit; Sacrifice the soul of Heaven and Earth, to merge with the way; Go against the logic of Heaven and Earth, to attain longevity!

With a small thud, “The Technique of Sensing Energy with the Five Spirits” fell to the ground.

Li Fan picked it up with trembling hands, unable to conceal his shock.

The way of immortality in this world is completely different from what he had imagined.

It could even be said…

It was a bit appalling.

No wonder, ever since he came into contact with the cultivators of this world, he had felt something strange.

It seemed as if the Heavenly Dao of this world harbored a faint malice towards the cultivators.

Whether it was the rule that the immortal techniques could not be cultivated concurrently, or the spectacle that when a cultivator died, their death would illuminate thousands of miles like a broadcast, or the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma in human bodies that could severely harm cultivators—it all hinted at this.

Now, having come into contact with the Immortal Cultivation World, the mystery finally unraveled.

“Go against the logic of Heaven and Earth, to attain longevity!” Li Fan muttered softly and took a deep breath..
