Chapter 468: Chapter 283: Condensing Energy, Building the Foundation, Initiating the Immortal Vein_2

The vast majority of cultivators, upon the verge of their destined demise, are extremely unwilling and will perform various unimaginable and unthinkable acts of desperation.

Even among immortals, whose Daoist hearts appear perfect, when confronted with the terrifying prospect of life and death, many will take actions at the last moment that are incongruously different compared to their usual demeanor.

Because even common immortals, or Earth Immortals who have opened up their blessed lands, still have lifespan limits and are trapped within them. Only when one truly achieves the fruit position of a Heavenly Immortal can they theoretically attain immortality – but even heavenly immortals must pass through three disasters and nine tribulations.

Only after surviving all these trials can they truly achieve infinite life, invincibility throughout ten thousands of calamities; otherwise, they can only reincarnate and live another life.

Only the heavenly immortals who have passed through all three disasters and nine tribulations can possess pure Yang dao fruits and been called Immortal Monarchs. Ordinary heavenly immortals, compared to pure Yang Immortal Monarchs, might seem to be in the same realm, but the difference is as vast as heaven and earth.

“If you don’t mind all your cultivation accumulation becoming empty in an instant, then you may give it a shot. However, ordinary cultivators wouldn’t squander their lifespan as you do.”

In the end, Dong Xuan gave her opinion. She had indeed never considered starting from scratch. Any normal cultivator wouldn’t think of starting over, as they would have chosen their path from the start. After all, the lifespan lost in cultivation cannot be reclaimed.

But for Feng Qing’an, upon careful consideration, this approach seemed possible. With Feng Qing’an’s talent, even if he cultivates to the Transcendence Realm, it wouldn’t take much time. He just needed to stop at the right time.

Therefore, practicing wasn’t a big deal, at the very least, it allowed him to familiarize himself with it in advance. After a few more tries, Feng Qing’an might find the cultivation skill truly suitable for him, or even deduce his own cultivation method.

“Lifespan? That’s not within my consideration. It’s not something I need to worry about right now.”

An exuberant Feng Qing’an said, not having even reached the age of adulthood according to mortal standards.

In fact, Feng Qing’an had already faintly sensed that he had long become an immortal who no longer needed to worry about his lifespan. The shackle of lifespan had been lifted from him.

Body traits: Immortal Spirit Source!

Being able to grant immortality to ten thousand spirits, he himself naturally becomes immortal.

From the day he obtained the Supreme Body of Ten Thousand Spirits, even if the conversion rate was as low as one in a million, his essence underwent earth-shattering changes from that day onwards.

The blade of time cannot touch him. His body is still growing merely because he wishes it to. If he doesn’t want to, his physique will remain forever in its current youthful state, no longer changing.

Having cultivated to the realm of the Heavenly Beast Master, how could he not understand his own body? He even fully understood the structure of distinct existences like Black Mountain, Sen Miao, and even the scorching sun tree, the Spirit Touching Armor.

If he hadn’t thoroughly understood his Guardian Beast or his own body, how could he have performed the “Fusion God Skill”? Transforming into a half-human, half-beast; half-human, half-demon, or even half-human, half-sage.

However, his immortality differs somewhat from the longevity Taoist Fruit of the immortal way because he doesn’t possess the grand divine power and magic strength of an Immortal Monarch.

He must carefully and cautiously hide his existence because he has obtained immortality but has not gained corresponding power. The deadliest fact is that other beings can also extract immortality from his body.

“You indeed do not need to consider your lifespan.”

Even Dong Xuan had to admit this, ordinary cultivators have lifespan constraints, so every step they take must be cautious and do their best within their capabilities.

But for this reincarnated fairy monarch with Pure Yang Dao Fruit, that’s not the case. Once he retrieves his previous life’s Dao Fruit, he would share the same lifespan as heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and the moon.

Therefore, if the price is merely lifespan, then no matter what he does, it is permissible.

“Then I’ll start practicing the ‘Six Yin Netherworld Immortal Scripture’. If the Human Immortals of the Ghost Soul Sect recognize it, you’ll have to come save me right away.”

“Hmm.”

Having finished the conversation with Dong Xuan, Feng Qing’an started his first Qi cultivation in mid-air without seeking a secluded place.

Before he obtained the complete scriptures of the ‘Six Yin Netherworld Immortal Scripture,’ Feng Qing’an had thoroughly researched the Path of Cultivation. However, prior thoughts were of a normal cultivator, wanting to choose the best starting point and hesitating to start practicing.

Now that he had suddenly obtained a superior scattered power secret technique, Feng Qing’an suddenly saw the light. Why did it matter whether the cultivation method fitted or not? Wouldn’t he know it if he tried them all? If he was wrong, then he would disperse the technique and start again, what was the big deal!

Qi condensation, channel opening, spirit cultivation, casting off mortality, Yuan Dan.

Five major stages of the human path of cultivation. When one cultivates to the last stage, i.e., forming a Yuan Dan, they need to pass the first heavenly tribulation. When they pass the second heavenly tribulation and achieve the Dong Xuan, they are considered to have stepped into the Immortal Way.

Of course, this is too far away for the current Feng Qing’an. Even if he practices the ‘Six Yin Netherworld Immortal Scripture’, he won’t be reaching the stage of forming a Yuan Dan with this skill. If he were to disperse his technique at this stage, his foundation would be damaged.

Feng Qing’an is currently focusing on the first stage of cultivation, Qi Condensation.

This first stage can consume the entire life of an ordinary cultivator. Over 90% of cultivators spend their whole life stuck in this stage.

The first stage, which is the most time-consuming, even for a Taoist prodigy, they may remain in this stage longer than the next four. This is because Qi Condensation is preparation for forging the Dao Foundation.

The foundation accumulated in this stage will determine the height that one’s Dao can reach in the future. Therefore, many cultivators with good aptitude deliberately suppress their realm just to add as much depth to their foundation as possible.

Gathering Qi to Transform Spirit! Purifying the Spirit and Removing Impurities! Condensing Qi into Reality!

These are the three steps needed for the Qi Condensation Realm. Once completed, one can condense True Qi, and the next step is to repeat this process and accumulate True Qi.

When the accumulated True Qi reaches the cultivator’s limit, then one needs to develop immortal veins and manifest the vein image to establish the foundation for future cultivation.

What this realm pursues is the quality and quantity of the condensed True Qi. The higher the quality, the more abundant the accumulated True Qi, the higher the grade of the revealed vein image when developing the immortal veins. The higher the achievement they can attain in their future Dao cultivation.

The quality of the refined True Qi depends on the cultivation method, and the amount of True Qi that can be accumulated specifically depends on the cultivator’s own physical aptitude.

Feng Qing’an was quite curious about his aptitude in this area. He wanted to know how much True Qi he could condense with his aptitude before he couldn’t stand it and had to step into the next realm.

“Six Yin Netherworld True Qi.”

Feng Qing’an’s cultivation insights and experiences related to the ‘Six Yin Netherworld Immortal Scripture’ popped up in his heart. Even though this was his first time practicing, it felt like a do-over for him. He would not repeat any of the past mistakes and omissions.

Despite this, when Feng Qing’an started to gather Qi to transform spirit, it still went beyond his expectations. The situation he faced was utterly different from the one faced by the Junior Sect Master when he had just started practicing.

The first thing a novice has to feel is the omnipresent ‘Qi’ from heaven and earth. Then, using their own spirit, they communicate with the ‘Qi’ in the universe, introduce it into their body, refine it, purify it, and condense it…

Just for the first step of introducing the ‘Qi’, talented cultivators only need half an hour, or even a quarter of an hour to find the Qi sensation. Those with less ability require a day to ten days. As for those who require more time, it’s not necessary for them to cultivate at all and they might as well lead an ordinary life.

According to Feng Qing’an’s inappropriate understanding, a cultivator’s process of introducing and refining Qi is like a bootlicker courting a goddess. From start to finish, they must be submissive, as humble as possible, careful and cautious, and dare not make any mistakes.
