Long River Eternity

If Liu Xianxian was truly a Celestial Soul Body as Yang An claimed, Lin Ding should have been delighted for her. After all, Celestial Souls were considered the pinnacle of existence in ancient times, and Liu Xianxian's future achievements were boundless. However, a subtle worry lingered in his heart, especially when he learned she was a Celestial Soul Body. This worry intensified. Lin Ding couldn't help but ask Yang An, "Do you know where Ye Tingxue is now?"

Yang An was silent for a long time. When Lin Ding was anxiously preparing to ask again, he slowly said, "Xiaoxue died in ancient times."

"What?!" Lin Ding's heart suddenly sank, and shock washed over him. He had never imagined that Ye Tingxue, a celestial soul, would have perished in ancient times.

"Why, do you think that just because my sister, Qin Hanming and I are still alive in this era, everyone else should be alive too?" Yang An's tone was filled with sarcasm.

"But isn't the soul of the Heavenly Soul Body immortal and indestructible?" Lin Ding recalled someone's description of the Heavenly Soul Body and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"How can there be true immortality in this world? No matter how powerful a being is, it will eventually perish." Yang An's tone was filled with a subtle sadness, but he immediately recovered and continued, "Do you think that the Heavenly Soul Body is immortal, so you think that the soul hidden in Liu Xianxian's body is Ye Tingxue's soul?"

Yang An pointedly exposed Lin Ding's guess.

"Um... I do have such an idea." Lin Ding looked a little embarrassed when he was exposed.

"When Wei Wu woke up, I told you that Wei Wu is Wei Wu, and it is the same now. Liu Xianxian is Liu Xianxian. Stop thinking about it, and think about what you should do when you arrive in Zhongzhou." Yang An's tone was still calm, but with a hint of severity.

"I understand." Lin Ding felt extremely ashamed, realizing that he was always daydreaming and worrying about gains and losses, and he really let Yang An down for his care and help.

Yang An stopped paying attention to Lin Ding, so Lin Ding cut off contact with him and told her about Liu Xianxian's Celestial Soul Body. Liu Xianxian was overwhelmed with excitement. Ever since Lin Ding had told her stories of ancient times, she had been filled with curiosity about the various physical forms of ancient times. Now that she knew she was also a Celestial Soul Body, she immediately pulled Lin Ding aside, eagerly asking for details about the Celestial Soul Body.

Lin Ding didn't know much about the Celestial Soul Body, so he could only tell her everything he remembered about it. When Liu Xianxian learned that Ye Tingxue had already reached the peak of the Wind Control Realm when she awakened her Celestial Soul Body, even stronger than Lin Ding was now, almost equivalent to the Heavenly Power Realm, and that she had awakened at a critical moment, she was inevitably shocked.

However, not long after, she cheered up and expressed with a fighting spirit that she would seize the time to practice and awaken her heavenly soul body as soon as possible. Then she picked up the energy in her hand, returned to her bed and began to practice.

Lin Ding looked at the absorbed Liu Xianxian and Feng Hao, then turned to Wei Wu and smiled, "They've all started practicing, so it's time for us to start as well. You need to stabilize your realm as quickly as possible, familiarize yourself with your new body, and break through to the Yuheng realm as soon as possible."

"I didn't expect that I, who was at the peak of Class A a few days ago, would now start to consider breaking through the Yuheng Realm. Life is really full of surprises." Wei Wu said with emotion, recalling his experiences in the past few days.

"I didn't expect you still have time to think about life." Lin Ding teased.

"I just don't like to use my brain, it doesn't mean I'm stupid." Wei Wu retorted, then closed his eyes and began to practice.

Lin Ding looked at Wei Wu and couldn't help but smile. He also closed his eyes, but did not start practicing immediately. Instead, he contacted Yang An again and asked about Feng Hao's practice method.

Unexpectedly, Yang An was actually stumped by Feng Hao's question about his cultivation method. He said, "To be honest, this is the first time I've modified a cultivation method for someone who is cultivating the Extreme Realm. In ancient times, there was no such cultivation method as the Extreme Realm. Nowadays, there are even fewer records about the Extreme Realm, and most of them are failed cases. I really can't think of any suitable cultivation method for him for now."

"But Xiaohao is about to reach the peak of the Dongming Realm. Without any skills, his further training will have to be put on hold." Lin Ding's tone was filled with regret.

Yang An thought for a moment, then said, "Actually, we can let him create his own technique. Since he has chosen a unique cultivation method, only a technique he has created himself will be the most suitable for him. I will sort out my experience in cultivating the nuclear energy system, and let him create a technique that suits him based on this experience."

Lin Ding asked hesitantly: "He is only eight years old, is it really okay?"

"After experiencing imprisonment, witnessing cruel experiments, and seeing his parents die tragically, and then following you around everywhere, even an ordinary child would have been tougher and more mature than his peers. What's more, he is a genius himself, and I believe he can definitely handle it." Yang An said firmly.

Lin Ding pondered Yang An's words, and recalled Feng Hao's experiences over the past few days. Indeed, as Yang An had said, in just a few days, the hardships he had experienced were even more tortuous than theirs. If everything on Feng Hao's cultivation path was arranged perfectly, it would actually stifle his talent.

"You're right, I should trust Xiao Hao." Lin Ding made up his mind.

After solving Feng Hao's problem, Lin Ding began to focus on his own practice, striving to consolidate his realm as quickly as possible and break through to the peak of the Yufeng Realm, preparing for the next breakthrough to the Heyuan Realm.

Time flies when one is practicing, and in the blink of an eye, it is already night. Feng Hao was the first to finish his practice, successfully reaching the peak of the Dongming Realm, ready to attack the Yaoguang Realm at any time.

Not long after, Liu Xianxian also completely absorbed the energy in her body and successfully advanced from the early Yaoguang Realm to the late Yaoguang Realm.

Wei Wu and Lin Ding were already consolidating their cultivation. Upon hearing what Liu Xianxian and Feng Hao were saying, they opened their eyes and inquired about their cultivation progress. They were delighted to learn that they had both reached their desired state.

Then, Lin Ding brought up Yang An's training plan for Feng Hao. After hearing this, the three of them fell into deep thought, considering whether this method was feasible.

After a brief silence, Feng Hao took the lead in breaking the deadlock. He said in a firm tone without hesitation, "I believe I can do it. I will definitely be able to create a technique that suits me best."

The three of them looked at Feng Hao simultaneously. Although Feng Hao usually stayed quietly beside them, and aside from his incredible talent, he was only slightly more obedient than his peers, they saw in Feng Hao's eyes the determination and confidence that came from careful consideration. He looked incredibly mature.

"Alright!" Lin Ding slapped his thigh excitedly, stood up, and said, "Well done, Xiaohao, I believe in you. Now I will tell you all of Yang An's experience in nuclear energy cultivation. Don't rush to break through, first integrate the experience thoroughly, and at the same time, verify each breakthrough with each other, and don't be impatient..."

Lin Ding, like an old father, patiently reminded Feng Hao of the things he should pay attention to during his practice.

Wei Wu and Liu Xianxian were initially a bit worried about Feng Hao, but after listening to Lin Ding's constant nagging, even Wei Wu couldn't take it anymore and jokingly said, "Lin Ding, it's inappropriate for you, a spiritual cultivator, to keep nagging a little brat about nuclear energy cultivation methods. Why didn't I realize you were such a nagging person before?"

Liu Xianxian had wanted to laugh when she saw Lin Ding constantly talking about Feng Hao, but when she heard Wei Wu's teasing, she finally couldn't hold back her laughter and said, "Hahaha, Lin Ding, I didn't expect you to care so much about Xiao Hao?"

Lin Ding blushed at the two's teasing and said awkwardly, "Of course I care about Xiao Hao, and I've also read Yang An's cultivation experience. What's wrong with giving him some guidance?"

"Then why don't you just tell Xiaohao your experience and show it to me and Xianxian as well?" Wei Wu said.

"Yang An said that this experience contains too much. I don't practice the nuclear energy system, so it's okay to take a look. Xiao Hao is gifted, and creating his own skills requires a huge knowledge reserve. You don't need to read it. Just practice according to the skills given to you for the time being. When your realm is improved, you can consider creating a skill that suits your own." Lin Ding explained.

"Although it sounds reasonable, I feel like we are being looked down upon." Wei Wu looked at Liu Xianxian and said.

"Be more confident and remove the word 'as if'. He is just saying that we are stupid. Beat him." Liu Xianxian bared her fangs and pretended to be angry.

After saying that, he and Wei Wu rushed towards Lin Ding.

"Hey? What Yang An said has nothing to do with me?" Lin Ding said as he hid in the corner of the bed and curled up into a ball.

"Hmph, we can't hear what Yang An said, so God knows who said it." Wei Wu smiled and pressed on Lin Ding, while Liu Xianxian kept tickling him, making Lin Ding beg for mercy and laugh at the same time.

Feng Hao, who was standing aside, watched the three people playing and laughed out loud with the innocent expression that a child should have.

The entire box was filled with a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
