Immortality and Cultivation: This old man seeks enlightenment through mere survival.

Of course, that's not the most incredible thing!!

After the contract was completed.

Under the nourishment of the essence of water, Lu Zaian also gained the little guy's affinity and comprehension of the laws of water.

now.

When Lu Zai'an sensed the outside world, he immediately noticed that it was very different.

In the past, when he cultivated, he needed to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and find the water-based spiritual energy that corresponded to himself.

Only after circulating the energy through the cultivation technique for dozens or even hundreds of cycles can it be refined into a trace of one's own water-based magical power.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is inherently chaotic.

It contains all the attributes of the world, such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, electricity, darkness, etc.

The lower the quality of a cultivator's spiritual root, the more difficult it is to sense and separate a single spiritual energy.

To give an analogy, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is like a multicolored black.

Cultivating magical power is like peeling back layers of an onion.

Lu Zaian needs to extract the "blue" belonging to the water element from this colorful "black".

For someone with previously low aptitude, this was no less difficult than finding a needle in a haystack; he could only rely on spending time and effort to master it.

However, now that the contract is complete, Lu Zaian has instantly become someone who can see the world with open eyes.

He could clearly sense countless azure water-based spiritual energy particles floating between heaven and earth.

Freed from the entanglement of chaos, they shone like stars in the night sky, clearer than ever!

At the same time, with just a thought, Lu Zaian could draw in all this water-based spiritual energy as if lining up to be absorbed into his body.

The entire absorption process was incredibly smooth, like a river flowing backwards, endlessly...

The spiritual energy circulated throughout the body in just a few moments, and was then completely refined into water-based magical power in the dantian.

If we compare Lu Zaian's meridians to small water pipes, and his magical power to flowing water.

Lu Zaian's previous cultivation process was like spending half an hour squeezing a single drop of water from a pipe.

The process of accumulation is incredibly long...

Now, the small water pipe has been transformed into a large water pump.

It was the kind of gate that was opened to its maximum, and magical power flowed out in a torrent.

Lu Zaian felt something in his heart.

At his current cultivation speed, he is confident that he can break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining within three months...

"Not bad, not bad. The ability to share talents cannot be perfected overnight."

This is just the beginning; the longer it goes on, the more obvious the benefits you'll see!

The remnant soul drifted to the side, smiling with satisfaction.

Since he chose Lu Zaian as his destined partner, he naturally hopes that Lu Zaian will become stronger and stronger.

This way, his remains would be better preserved in Lu Zaian's hands...

However… the remnant soul looked at the little guy beside it, somewhat puzzled and confused.

"Eee-ooh~ Eee-ooh~~"

At this moment, the little guy's eyes were slightly narrowed, and a touch of human-like blush appeared on his fair face.

Its body swayed precariously in mid-air, tilting left and right, as if it couldn't stand steadily.

It was like… The remnant soul pondered for a moment, then thought of an adjective… Yes, it was like being drunk.

"What's going on? Could the imperfection in the contract have damaged its essence? That shouldn't be the case..."

At this moment, Lu Zaian, who was standing to the side, finally came back to his senses from the great surprise.

His gaze then turned to the little guy swaying in the air.

The connection between the contracts made Lu Zaian understand what was going on in an instant.

Good guy!

One's own immortal body possesses a life force that is like a furnace, continuously generating and endlessly regenerating.

Sharing only about 10% was enough to fill the little guy's stomach.

It's almost overflowing...

As a creature of heaven and earth with a spiritual body, the little guy was naturally able to absorb various powers to cultivate.

Lu Zaian's life force is naturally one of them.

It's normal for the little one to absorb so much at once, making it difficult to digest, and to be unable to close his legs or stand steadily.

It can be said that its gains were absolutely no less than Lu Zaian's.

This is a win-win situation!

Lu Zaian laughed heartily, "Haha, from now on I'll call you Xiao Yi."

"Eee-ooh~~"

The little guy made a drowsy sound again, as if he were half asleep, his little face was fair with a rosy glow, and he was extremely cute.

"Come, let's recuperate and digest in the advanced origin space..."

Lu Zaian guided Xiao Yi to transform into a beam of blue light and enter his kidney dimensional space.

Through internal vision, one could see that Xiao Yi immediately hugged the essence of water, curled up in the corner, and fell fast asleep...

"How strange..."

This was the first time the remnant soul had encountered such a situation, and it couldn't figure out what was going on.

However, he didn't have much time to investigate further.

"Alright, this Water Spirit Lotus can't survive without the Xuanbing Cold Water, so you can keep it too."

With a flick of his finger, the remnant soul touched the lotus flower, and the icy blue lotus seeds fell off one by one, while the lotus root was pulled from the mud without a trace of filth.

"Put these lotus seeds and lotus roots in a fine jade box, otherwise the energy will be lost."

And pick all the fruit from that amethyst tree outside, and store it in a wooden box.

Consuming this fruit can enhance one's cultivation level and break through cultivation barriers.

However, given your cultivation level, you should not take it rashly. You should at least wait until you break through to the Foundation Establishment stage before taking it.

These special spiritual plants all rely on the cold pool for growth, but now that the cold pool is gone, they will soon wither away..."

The remnant soul's tone was somewhat forlorn and regretful.

These spiritual plants were all planted by him with countless efforts.

Now that the fruit has been handed over to Lu Zaian, the remnant soul still feels a little reluctant.

But what can we do if we're reluctant to part with it?

Even though he was once a high-ranking Core Formation cultivator, he is now about to disappear forever...

"Yes, thank you, senior! I am deeply grateful for this kindness and will certainly fulfill your last wish as promised!"

Lu Zaian was extremely grateful and bowed deeply to the remnant soul.

He was already extremely satisfied with these gains.

He had originally been thinking about whether he could take these two spiritual plants out to cultivate.

Anyway, I already have Xuanbing Hanzhongshui.

But then I realized that I didn't understand how to cultivate and transplant high-level spiritual plants.

Even if they are lucky enough to survive the transplant.

But where to plant it is also a problem?

As a mere Qi Refining stage cultivator, I simply cannot protect such a precious treasure.

Taking it out rashly will only bring trouble upon yourself...

Similarly, Lu Zaian was determined not to reveal anything he had obtained in this spiritual plant garden.

Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Yes, I can rest assured now."

The remnant soul accepted Lu Zaian's bow without hesitation, and at the same time tossed his ring to Lu Zaian, then said:

"My storage ring has been around for a thousand years. Without the nurturing power of its owner, the internal space is almost broken, and ninety percent of the items are damaged."

The only things left were the high-quality spirit-sealing bottle and two sets of jade slips.

The sealing bottle is the same jade bottle that just contained the Xuanbing Han Chong Shui.

As for the jade slip, it contains the "Extreme Spirit Yin Sha Technique," a third-tier ice-type cultivation method that I primarily practice.

The other set is my compilation of the lineage of talismanic arts and array techniques, titled "The True Explanation of Talismans and Arrays: Complete Volume."
