I have already reached Nascent Soul, and above Nascent Soul is Divine Transformation, and then I can prepare for Tribulation Crossing.
After passing the tribulation, I’ll be considered to have an Immortal Certificate issued by the Dao of Heaven, living as long as the heavens, neither aging nor dying.
“Actually, I’ve always felt that there’s a bug in all cultivation novels,” Cluru said.
“How so.”
“Xianren use tens of thousands of years of cultivation to pursue an infinite lifespan… but in reality, tens of thousands of years should be enough time to research highly advanced genetic science, right? Even if they only spent one hour a day researching genetic science as a hobby, they should have already researched immortality technology,” Cluru said.
“Then why don’t people on Earth know how to do cultivation?” I asked in return.
Cluru thought for a moment: “Because… there’s no Lingqi?”
“There’s clearly a lot of Lingqi.”
“Then why is that?”
“Because they can’t find the entrance.”
Cluru frowned in deep thought.
Instead, Tahlia joined our conversation and gave a specific answer.
She said: “This is determined by the starting point of the civilization. In its origin stage, a civilization will unconsciously choose a development path. Once a path and a system are established, it becomes very difficult for the scholars of that civilization to cross over to another system. They can only continue forward within that system—until the research reaches the extreme.”
“The extreme?”
“For example, Quantum Mechanics in the scientific world, the Sage’s Dao of Heaven in the cultivation world, or the Space-time Laws in the magic world… these three paths lead to the same destination by different routes. No matter which one you choose, you will eventually reach the same end.”
Cluru was stunned: “Alright, sorry, I didn’t mean to suddenly discuss something so profound and boring…”
She had just heard me say that I wanted to cultivate to “Above the Sage, Master of the Dao, being able to destroy the Sun, Moon, and Stars with a single thought, only then would there be enough certainty” when starting the Resurrection plan… and she just wanted to complain a bit.
Because those words sounded so far away!
“Actually, it won’t take long.”
Cluru ＞＜ slumped against the table: “It took us so long just to get from Qi Refining to Nascent Soul… isn’t cultivation supposed to get slower and slower?”
“I have to thank the kind person who provided a brand new cultivation system for that.”
The path for Xiushi of this era is from One Origin to Nine Palaces.
While mine is from Qi Refining to Divine Transformation.
Although before Nascent Soul/Seven Luminaries, both systems require Lingqi to improve.
But above Nascent Soul/Seven Luminaries, what is needed to improve cultivation is no longer Lingqi.
Instead, it is the Great Dao resonance.
Suppose the two systems are compared to “Telecom” and “Unicom”.
In this era, most Xiushi follow the One Origin to Nine Palaces path—which is the “Telecom” route.
Xiushi who follow the Qi Refining to Divine Transformation route are very rare— —there’s absolutely no one on the Unicom route.
This results in the Dao Optical Cable leading to the Nascent Soul Stage being very clear!
Without network congestion, the speed of downloading the Dao Data Packet is naturally much faster.
The resonance degree is soaring!
“I should be able to cross the tribulation tomorrow,” I said. “Let’s prepare well today.”
“…Are you calculating your level-ups in terms of days?” Tahlia couldn’t help but feel a sense of absurdity.
The unit of time in the Cultivation World usually starts with a century!
“It’s alright, it’s just that no one is competing. Those who were competitive were all hacked to death by Hou Tu, so I have to thank Hou Tu for that.”
“……”
.
There are 23 hours left until the Tribulation Crossing.
“If you’re crossing the tribulation tomorrow, what needs to be prepared today?” Cluru asked.
“Eat as much as you can of whatever you like.”
I answered.
Tribulation Crossing is a matter of life and death.
If you pass, it’s eternal life; if you don’t, you’ll be turned directly into ashes.
So, before sensing the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation, Xiushi basically choose to relax properly.
Anyway, in a long life, basically everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared; one day won’t make a difference.
Eat something good today and set off peacefully tomorrow.
“Tomorrow, I’ll help you call some people to protect you and prevent anyone from causing trouble,” Jieliya said.
“Then many thanks, Senior Sister.”
During the Tribulation Crossing, I have to resist the Thunder Tribulation with all my strength, and my soul body will be very fragile.
I indeed need someone to protect me.
Jieliya’s jade fingers flicked, writing several Talisman characters in the air.
Those golden words quickly turned into flowing light and flew toward the horizon.
This is a Transmission Talisman.
.
Soon, the golden light reached its destination.
In a small, unknown sect, a girl covered in dust was sweeping the floor.
As she swept the fallen leaves, she muttered to herself:
“Why hasn’t anyone come to exterminate the sect yet… Didn’t this small sect just offend some sword sect or other a few days ago? I’ve been sweeping for three days, so why hasn’t anyone come yet.”
Not far from the girl, a Xiushi shouted at her: “You little servant over there! What are you muttering about?! Just do your work!”
The girl curled her lip and continued to pretend she was a low-level little fry.
“The ancient book I read clearly said, “First find a small sect that can’t even protect itself, preferably one that has offended a big shot. Then join as a low-level servant, and when the enemies come to exterminate the sect, shake your body, release your domineering aura, and guarantee to shock the whole place!”
The ancient book was found by the girl in an ancient ruin, titled 《Summary of the Cultivation World’s Strongest Stress-Relief Activities》.
The author’s name was “Yun X”, but unfortunately, the ink had faded because it was too old.
“But the guy who wrote the book didn’t say at all— what to do if the security in the Cultivation World is too good and the other side follows the law and gets cold feet!”
“Did that guy live in the wonderful era of ‘exterminating a sect over a single disagreement’?!
Ahhh… so boring! It’s been three days, and I haven’t earned a single Villain Point, nor any Pleasure Points!
At this rate, how long will it take to save up enough for one pull?!”
The girl suppressed the madness in her heart and continued to pretend to sweep the floor obediently.
Finally! There was movement in the sky!
Unfortunately, it wasn’t the enemy coming to exterminate the sect.
It was a golden post.
[Come to the Wenxue Ancient Realm tomorrow to help protect someone. A Junior Sister is crossing a tribulation.]
“Jieliya’s text message?” The girl was surprised.
“It’s just crossing a tribulation. Why would she call me for such a small thing? No, Jieliya knows what she’s doing. This definitely isn’t an ordinary Tribulation Crossing.”
“Should I call Mom and Xiao Xian over too?”
“Hmm… forget it. Since Jieliya called me, then if there’s a need, she must have already called Mom and Xiao Xian. I don’t need to worry about it.”
“Wenxue Ancient Realm, huh? She didn’t say which realm it is. Let’s sense it… okay, Novice Trial. I have to open a Virtual Machine.”
The girl leaned the broom against a nearby wall.
She respectfully bowed to the servant manager and said, “Senior Brother, my family has something going on, and I need to head back quickly.”
“A servant who just joined like you wants to go down the mountain?” The servant manager glared fiercely.
“Go and come back quickly! Go and come back quickly! Do you need me to use a sword to fly you there?!”
“No need, no need. I’ll just go down the mountain and take the Public Transit Sword myself.”
“Then go quickly and come back quickly!”
“Thank you, Senior Brother! See you later!”
