City: Start practicing Chinese martial arts

Then, Zhang Sanfeng said calmly, "Actually, there are no more realms after becoming a land immortal. At least that's the case in this world."

Hearing this, Lin Tian was only slightly surprised, but did not react much, because he had already guessed it.

Seeing this, Zhang Sanfeng nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Although there are no more realms after the land immortals, there are still ways to break through and improve strength."

After a pause, he continued, "First, they can switch to cultivation. Although some people cultivate martial arts because they lack the aptitude for cultivation, after breaking through to the Land God Immortal realm, they will have the aptitude for cultivation. And this aptitude is very high. And after switching to cultivation, relying on the Land God Immortal-level energy and physical body within their bodies, they will soon reach the Qi Refining Transformation Realm, and then quickly break through to the Spirit Refining Returning to Void Realm."

Hearing this, Lin Tian asked doubtfully, "Master Sanfeng, why is this happening?"

Zhang Sanfeng replied, "Warriors at the level of Earthly Immortals have cultivated their bodies and true qi to the utmost, possessing formidable vitality and mental strength. These qualities give them the potential to cultivate Daoism, allowing them to more easily absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and cultivate true essence. Daoists, on the other hand, focus more on cultivating and utilizing spiritual power, improving their cultivation through methods such as inner vision and meditation. Furthermore, after converting to Daoism, Earthly Immortals can leverage their profound true qi and physical strength to rapidly break through from the Foundation Establishment and Self-Refining stage to the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation stage, and further to the Spirit Refining and Returning to Emptiness stage."

After hearing this, Lin Tian suddenly realized that this was the case.

Then, Zhang Sanfeng continued, "The second is to enter the Dao through martial arts. This method is similar to the first method, but with martial arts, you don't need to cultivate the previous realms. You can directly break through to the realm of refining the spirit and returning to emptiness. However, this is a huge challenge for martial artists, because they need to have an extremely deep understanding and comprehension of martial arts. And although this method seems simple, it is actually very difficult, because it requires martial artists to constantly hone themselves in battle and thus improve their strength. So if you want to try this method, you must be fully prepared. However, compared to the same realm, in terms of combat power, this method is stronger than simple cultivation and the first method of breakthrough."

After saying this, Zhang Sanfeng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and after moistening his throat, he continued, "The last type is self-created realm. According to records in ancient books, there have been records of people who reached the pinnacle of the land immortal realm, and then suddenly had an epiphany, shattered the void, and left Blue Star. Of course, this is just a legend, and whether this situation really exists remains to be verified."

After listening to Zhang Sanfeng's explanation, Lin Tian fell into deep thought. He hadn't expected that the realms of the terrestrial immortals were each more difficult than the last. The self-created realms were particularly shocking.

After a moment of silence, Lin Tian regained his composure and asked, "Master Sanfeng, how did you achieve this breakthrough? I also heard that you practice both Taoism and martial arts."

Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng shook his head slightly and replied with a smile, "I don't practice both Taoism and martial arts, but rather I use martial arts to enter Taoism. The reason why the rumor of my dual cultivation is mainly because I first demonstrated my martial arts skills in front of the world, and only after I entered Taoism through martial arts did I begin to show my Taoist cultivation. In addition, the cultivation methods after reaching the realm of land immortals are basically only understood by those at the land immortal level."

After saying this, Zhang Sanfeng stared at Lin Tian for a while with his eyes piercing, and then said earnestly: "Well, the reason I called you here is to tell you the path after reaching the realm of land immortals, but you don't have to rush to choose a way to break through. After all, you are still young and have plenty of time to explore and try."

After a brief pause, he continued, "Now, let me explain these three methods to you in detail."

……

After an unknown amount of time, after Zhang Sanfeng finished his explanation, Lin Tian seemed to have sensed something, and immediately stood up and sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed.

Noticing this scene, Zhang Sanfeng smiled but didn't say anything, because he knew that Lin Tian had some realization and was about to make a breakthrough.

Sure enough, the next moment, Lin Tian's aura suddenly became stronger, and a powerful momentum burst out from him. His cultivation level broke through from the early stage of solid dan directly to the middle stage of solid dan.

After a moment, Lin Tian adjusted his state, opened his eyes, then stood up and said to Zhang Sanfeng: "Thank you, Master Sanfeng, for helping me break through."

Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng smiled and said, "It's nothing, this is your opportunity!"

After a moment of silence, Lin Tian spoke again: "Master Sanfeng, you should have noticed that my aura is different from that of a warrior, right?"

Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng frowned and said, "Isn't this a problem with your technique?"

Lin Tian shook his head and said, "No, I'm not actually practicing martial arts, but another kind of cultivation system."

He then continued, "The three methods you just explained to me, especially the method of using martial arts to enter the Tao, have benefited me greatly. Furthermore, you also taught me the Taoist cultivation method - Tai Chi Xuan Gong. To thank you, I will explain my cultivation system to you."

Yes, in order to thank Zhang Sanfeng, Lin Tian explained the national martial arts system. Of course, he only explained the system and did not reveal his own skills.

So, in Zhang Sanfeng's somewhat shocked eyes, Lin Tian began to explain Chinese martial arts to him.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Tian finished his explanation. Zhang Sanfeng came back to his senses and said with some emotion: "Your cultivation system is a bit like martial arts, but it is more profound than martial arts. After listening to your explanation, I have benefited a lot. Even my cultivation has shown signs of weakening."

Hearing this, Lin Tian smiled and said, "Master Sanfeng, I'm glad I can help you!"

Then, Zhang Sanfeng and Lin Tian started an in-depth discussion on the three areas of cultivation: martial arts, national martial arts, and cultivation. Of course, Zhang Sanfeng was mainly responsible for explaining, while Lin Tian listened quietly.

……

At noon the next day, Lin Tian and the other two were on their way home.

Recalling the discussion with Zhang Sanfeng yesterday, Lin Tian deeply felt Zhang Sanfeng's profound understanding and unique insights into cultivation.

Especially after listening to Lin Tian’s explanation of the Chinese martial arts system, Zhang Sanfeng put forward some unique viewpoints, which made Lin Tian gain a lot.

At this moment, a crisp voice came, interrupting Lin Tian's thoughts.

"Xiaotian, after getting up this morning, Sister Shiya has been frowning and looking worried. I asked her what happened, but she refused to tell me. Why don't you ask her?" The person who spoke was Xia Linxi, with a hint of worry in her tone.

After hearing this, Lin Tian came back to his senses and turned to look at Li Siya, only to find that she really looked like she was worried about something.

He quickly asked, "Sister Shiya, what's wrong with you? Are you in any trouble?"

Hearing Lin Tian's caring words, Li Shiya raised her head and looked at Lin Tian. A glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly said, "Oh, Xiaotian, you are here. That's great. Why didn't I think of it just now? You must have a way."

Lin Tian was somewhat confused by Li Shiya's words and asked doubtfully, "Sister Shiya, what's going on? Tell me quickly. I'll do my best to help you in any way I can!"

However, Li Shiya did not answer his question immediately, but asked: "Xiaotian, do you still remember Li Si?"
