Alien Science Cultivation

Zhang Qiang listened to Dulong's explanation, and a great deal seemed to dawn on him. Dulong's account was incredibly detailed, explaining why only weak sects, like the Qingshan Sect, existed near the Dark Forest. It turned out that the presence of this hellish entrance had contributed to the scarcity of spiritual energy. This was only the smallest entrance; what was the scene like near the largest entrance? What were the concentrations of black spiritual energy and spiritual energy? What were the masters swarming around, absorbing the spiritual energy? Perhaps the Xuanwu Continent was just the tip of the iceberg of this vast land! The long road ahead to self-preservation on this continent seemed endless! The search for clues to the journey seemed even more elusive. From the high aspirations of Qingshan Village, to the excitement of the Qingshan Sect embarking on the path of immortal cultivation, to the arduous journey into the Dark Forest... Zhang Qiang took a deep breath! "It seems my return to Earth will take time... But I won't give up..." Zhang Qiang reaffirmed his resolve and regained his composure. Scanning the terrain at the entrance to Hell, he said, "Now I need to find a safe corner to absorb the black spiritual energy. The porcelain robe can only block the spiritual sense of the ghost body, but it cannot hide from the spiritual sense of the ferocious beast! Unless I also transform into a ghost body... Otherwise, I need to find a safe place to practice during the day and at night... The safety risks of running back and forth will increase exponentially... It seems that I have no choice but to retreat... Wait, this kid seems to be quite powerful... Let's ask him first!"

"Brother Dulong is truly amazing... After listening to your words and considering what I've seen and heard today, I'm deeply moved... Although we have porcelain clothes that can block the spiritual consciousness of ghosts, is there any method or magic weapon that can block the spiritual consciousness of ferocious beasts? I want to build a permanent cave nearby and practice day and night..."

Hearing Zhang Qiang's words, Dulong took over the voice without hesitation, "No, boss, if there is such an easy way, this place would have been overcrowded long ago. This Guixu... this entrance to hell is not stable, um... Simply put, at midnight, the spiritual energy here will disappear, and it will be all Guixu energy. If there is a fierce beast here at this time, the spiritual energy in its inner elixir will be pulled by the power of Guixu at this time, and it will uncontrollably come out from its mouth, nose, etc. Once it encounters the uncontrolled Guixu energy, it will also produce the power of nothingness. This uncontrolled power of nothingness will make the inner elixir of the fierce beast disappear completely. Similarly, when the spiritual energy completely suppresses the Guixu energy, the black golden elixir and the black beast elixir in the ghost's body will also disappear. And this situation where the spiritual energy completely suppresses the Guixu energy, and the Guixu energy completely suppresses the spiritual energy, is not fixed at midnight and noon. If a day is divided into 0 hours, 12 am At 24:7 PM, spiritual energy begins to suppress the Guixu Qi. Over time, the suppression intensifies, typically experiencing periods of complete suppression between 9:17 PM and 19:21 PM in the evening. Similarly, starting at 5: PM, the Guixu Qi begins suppressing spiritual energy, and typically from : PM to : AM the following day, this period of complete suppression also fluctuates. This period of complete suppression is erratic. Many newcomers have their cultivation reduced in this way, dropping directly to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. Beasts, on the other hand, are reduced to the level just before their inner elixir is formed. It's like a frozen lake: the force of nothingness carries away only the ice, not a single drop of water, and the remaining water could freeze again at any moment. The reason for this is currently unknown; there are several theories, none of which have been confirmed. "I'm only at the Qi Refining Realm, so am I immune to this?" Zhang Qiang asked hurriedly. "That's the theory, but you're the only one I know of who came in below the Jindan level. The specific circumstances are unknown, but there's no need to worry too much. The level of aptitude for cultivation of those people and beasts whose cultivation was taken away hasn't changed. The original cultivation physique of those people and beasts whose inner elixirs and golden elixirs disappeared hasn't decreased either. It's not worth taking such a big risk just to cultivate to the foundation-building stage. With your comprehension, a year or two will be enough to reach the late stage of foundation-building or the great perfection stage. Of course, if you insist on taking the risk, I support you..." Dulong said, taking out an animal skin that shone with a faint green light from the ring. It was somewhat similar to Dulong's body before he transformed. "This is the last shell my soul shed before transforming. This shell is currently the best thing I have on me to shield the spiritual consciousness of ferocious beasts. After all, as a ghost body, this thing is basically useless to us ghost bodies... You take it... Also, don't undergo tribulation nearby... That is simply seeking death... Well... We have to find a hidden place to build a cave. This area of several hundred feet is basically densely packed with ghosts. I think it would be feasible under that big tree," Dulong said while transmitting the message and pointing to a hundred-foot-long tree in front. The tree was densely packed with various bird ghosts, each occupying a place, while under the tree there were only a few scattered ferocious beast ghosts with relatively weak breath. "Whether it's cultivators, fierce beasts, or birds, once they embark on the path of cultivation, they all harbor pride in their hearts. Those who can stay in this area are basically the pride of the tribe. Their pride is even greater. They will never be willing to sit under the roots of a tree and give others the feeling of being dependent on others. Brother Qiang, what do you think? I guess the situation during the day will be similar to that at night! Wait until dawn, when the ghosts begin to withdraw and the fierce beasts begin to enter, and then start digging. That will be the most chaotic time, and even if there is movement, no one will notice."

"Brother Dulong is truly remarkable, your analysis is flawless..." Zhang Qiang interjected, "Haha... thank you. But you must control your cultivation progress well, and absolutely must not undergo tribulation at this time... You could establish your foundation at any time, so you must not be careless..."

"I know what I'm doing... Don't worry! Cultivating immortals is all about fighting for a chance..." After Zhang Qiang finished transmitting the message, he put away the silkworm shell given by Dulong, and felt the black spiritual energy here with all his heart and soul... "So rich... So overbearing..." These black spiritual energies, like a strong wind, rushed in all directions from the direction of the cave entrance, passed through the body, trees, rocks, etc., and quickly shot into the distance. There is no need to deliberately practice and absorb spiritual energy here. Just open your mouth slightly, and the black spiritual energy will be able to enter the meridians in the body and gather at the dantian. The black spiritual energy that passes through the body cannot directly enter the meridians and dantian. It's like people eating, they need to rely on their mouths to eat one bite at a time, but Zhang Qiang can control the spiritual energy to directly enter the meridians and dantian.
