“You are about to overcome the tribulation!”
“Yes, after crossing the tribulation, I will regain the power that I once lost!”
When Dong Xuan spoke these words, her tone was calm, but it was filled with incomparable self-confidence. The heavenly tribulation, which cultivators fear, was nothing to her.
“What realm will you be in after you succeed in crossing the tribulation?”
The original Feng Qing’an didn’t know much about the cultivation realms. After all, Dong Xuan was reluctant to teach him because she thought that what she had learned was too ancient and would only hold him back.
Taoist scriptures, cultivation skills, secret arts, they all change over millions of years, it’s not possible for them to remain unchanged. As long as the inheritance isn’t cut off, the current generation will always surpass the last.
However, the division of cultivation realms is difficult to change. Unless the whole system undergoes a fundamental change, understanding cultivation realms can still be of reference.
“The path I’m on now is different than before, but compared to that path, after passing the heavenly tribulation, I should be roughly equal to the Taiyin Celestial you want to apprentice.”
The light-hearted tone made Feng Qing’an fall into contemplation, understanding why Dong Xuan’s attitude was so peculiar just now. His desire to find a master had faded a lot, practically non-existent.
His would-be master can’t even match Dong Xuan, so why should he bother becoming their disciple? Couldn’t he simply seek guidance from Dong Xuan?
What Dong Xuan lacks is the evolution of many cultivation skills, divine powers, and secret arts in the countless years she spent transforming into an innate spirit body while hibernating. She needs to catch up with the times and ask her if there’s anything he doesn’t understand.
“Could you tell me about cultivation? To form a top three golden pill and be called a True Person, how much cultivation is needed before forming the golden pill?”
“Not much, gather Qi and cultivate the spirit, open the meridians and communicate Xuan, cultivate ten thousand spirits to transform, metamorphosize from mortal to true, condense the Yuan and form the pill, one more step up, is entering the Dong Xuan realm, stepping onto the immortal way, can be called an Immortal.”
“Six realms!”
Feng Qing’an seemed to understand, even though it didn’t look like a lot, he dared not underestimate it,
“Dong Xuan, do you think cultivation is hard?”
Feng Qing’an’s wording was very cautious. He didn’t understand the cultivation of the immortal way, but he supposed it couldn’t be a simple matter. Otherwise, practicing martial arts wouldn’t become popular; how good it would be to cultivate to immortality.
“Difficulty is relative. When I was young, my father made me read a hundred thousand Taoist scriptures. At that time, I thought cultivation was hard. But when I finished reading the hundred thousand Taoist scriptures, I found cultivation easy. Just in ten years, I formed a first-grade golden core. Now, I feel, the matter of cultivation is as difficult as creating heaven!”
“This… ”
Hearing Dong Xuan’s casual words, Feng Qing’an was stunned and didn’t know how to comment. He could only ask questions related to him,
“Is reading Taoist scriptures a necessary preparation before cultivation?”
“I don’t know what it’s like outside now, but in my cultivating age, any sect with some heritage, when recruiting disciples, would set up an outer court to arrange disciples to read the Taoist scriptures. Those gifted by heaven can enter the path of cultivation in three to five years, while those who are not so fortunate may not be able to cultivate even after twenty years!”
Obviously, reading Taoist scriptures is essential preparation for cultivation and is a process of tempering one’s will.
“At least three to five years then!”
Feng Qing’an was lost in thought, going by Dong Xuan’s words, the gifted can enter cultivation in about three to five years, but she read for ten years. This was not because she lacked talent, because her cultivation after that became a True Person in just ten years, clearly something else was at play.
“When I was reading Taoist scriptures, I complained about my father not letting me cultivate with my fellow disciples. But when I completely memorized the Taoist scriptures that my father allocated for me, my cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds. Those fellow disciples, even though they started cultivating earlier than me, were soon surpassed by me.”
Dong Xuan recounted her past cultivation experiences in great detail, her voice involuntarily carried a sense of light-heartedness.
But Feng Qing’an could tell, Dong Xuan was clearly using her own cultivation experience to warn him. Don’t rush cultivation; those who start cultivating early might not necessarily be the ones who reach the end.
“A hundred thousand Taoist scriptures, how much do you remember?”
Feng Qing’an realized that Dong Xuan was like an ancient Taoist scripture hall. Perhaps, as Dong Xuan said, what she had learned and used back then had fallen behind the current times, but that doesn’t mean they’re completely obsolete. Otherwise, how could she dominate the underworld?
“I haven’t forgotten a single word!”
How could Dong Xuan not know what was going through Feng Qing’an’s mind? Her attitude, however, remained the same,
“I can write it down for you, but I won’t give you the cultivation methods. And before you read the Taoist scriptures I’ve read, you must familiarize yourself with the current Taoist scriptures!”
Dong Xuan did not want to influence Feng Qing’an’s choices on his cultivation path too much, only wished for this reincarnated fairy monarch of extraordinary origin to find his own way.
She would only provide him with Taoist scriptures to help him accumulate foundation. As for the cultivation methods, only if Feng Qing’an already had his own basic cultivation method, would she give him what she knows as a reference, otherwise, she wouldn’t give it.
“That wouldn’t be a problem, for me, it shouldn’t be too difficult!”
Thinking of the numerous real people from different sects who would inevitably come to him soon, Feng Qing’an was full of confidence.
If obtaining the cultivation methods as a basis for founding a school is difficult, it’s tolerable. But if he can’t even obtain the scriptures to get enlightened, that would be too pathetic. Those real people from various sects might even offer them for free.
