Transmigration begins with archery training

"It's truly unexpected that the path to immortality that everyone dreams of requires leaving this continent."

Chen Sanshi sat in the carriage with his eyes closed, resting: "Haven't you tried this before?"

"Of course, some people have tried it."

Ningxiang said softly, "Most of the people who went to sea never came back. Everyone thought the sea was dangerous, and gradually no one thought about it anymore. Now it seems that these people either succeeded or encountered some accident at the ends of the earth. The vast majority should be the latter, and the former are very few."

"correct.

"I also have some news to report to the general. The core of the Seeking Immortals Pavilion has been making great moves recently, searching for something all over the mountains and fields. This is being done in sync with the events at Ziwei Mountain."

"Be more specific," Chen Sanshi said. "Are there any items similar to Cao Xie's relics?"

"Who knows."

Ningxiang gritted her teeth: "That bastard surnamed Xun has long excluded me; he wouldn't let me know about something like this."

"Don't call me General when we're out in public."

Chen Sanshi said.

He came out secretly, so naturally he couldn't reveal his identity.

"Understood, Master~"

"..."

Upon arriving at the nearest pier, the fourth senior brother had already prepared the boat in advance, so they didn't need to worry about anything. They could head directly south to the end of the river and then proceed to the southeastern port.

The journey was tedious.

It's nothing more than practicing martial arts, cultivating immortality, and honing formations.

In the blink of an eye.

A little over a month has passed.

Chen Sanshi's immortal cultivation realm had reached a critical moment of breakthrough. Under the guidance of his spiritual root, he continuously refined it through the meridians until, at a certain moment, it was as if a shackle within his body had been broken, and he could freely use the spiritual energy in his dantian.

[Cultivation Technique: Five Elements Technique, Early Stage of Qi Refining (Level 1)]

【Progress: 0/500】

[Efficacy: Possessing all five elements, reaching the pinnacle]

[Complete in all five elements: Possessing all five elemental roots, possessing profound cultivation foundation, but progressing slowly. One can reach the pinnacle by choosing a cultivation method based on a single elemental root.]

This is……

Drawing on his extensive experience, Chen Sanshi quickly grasped the meaning of the entry.

I chatted with Ningxiang on the way.

For cultivators, the quality of their spiritual roots is equivalent to the physical condition of a martial artist.

Spiritual roots are categorized into inferior, low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, then superior, heavenly grade, and so on...

Remove these.

It is further divided into single spiritual root and mixed spiritual root.

As the name suggests, mixed spiritual roots are a combination of various spiritual root attributes.

The more spiritual root attributes one has, the slower one's cultivation speed will be. This can be understood as the difference in nutrient requirements between planting one tree and five trees. If the quality of the spiritual root is also poor...

The cultivation speed will be as slow as a snail climbing a tree, and a great deal of spiritual energy will be required.

And Chen Sanshi.

It has all five poisonous creatures.

Not only does it possess all five attributes, but it also has inferior spiritual roots.

However, based on past experience...

As long as he works hard, he will be rewarded by heaven, and his physical condition will evolve to be most suitable for the changes in the cultivation method.

[All five elements are present].

The term means that if you cultivate a technique with a single attribute, you can improve the quality of the corresponding spiritual root until you reach the Heavenly Rank. Then you can switch techniques to continue improving the next type of spiritual root.

For example, if one cultivates wood-attribute techniques, one can elevate the wood attribute within one's spiritual root to a certain level.

"You still have to rely on your own efforts..."

"The initial stage will be more difficult, and you will need to grit your teeth and persevere."

Chen Sanshi cheered himself up in his heart.

Another point.

The path to immortality is long and boundless.

It can take years or even decades to break through to a new level.

The initial, intermediate, and final stages of Qi Refining are further divided into nine levels, with each three levels constituting a formal breakthrough that can improve the quality of one's spiritual root.

Currently.

He was a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining, the early stage of Qi Refining.

Over time.

Chen Sanshi gradually began to understand the meaning of the phrase "boundless".

Another ten days or so have passed.

The improvement in proficiency is negligible.

[Cultivation Technique: Five Elements Technique, Early Stage of Qi Refining (Level 1)]

【Progress: 10/500】

Not only that.

The spirit stone that Shen Guiyi gave me is also being consumed rapidly, and it's unlikely to last until I break through.

"This mid-grade spirit stone of yours is worth more than a hundred low-grade spirit stones. The person who gave it to you is really generous. Just one of these will be enough for you to use for a long time after you enter the Dao, but..."

Ningxiang explained, "No matter how many spirit stones we have, they can't withstand prolonged consumption. This is why our Seeking Immortals Pavilion has always longed to enter the Immortal Realm, where it is said that the world is filled with spiritual energy."

"Mid-grade spirit stone".

Chen Sanshi inspected his family's assets.

One mid-grade spirit stone, plus five low-grade spirit stones, and two more were taken from Ningxiang, for a total of seven low-grade spirit stones.

These are all important resources and must be kept safe.

In the "Five Elements Secrets".

It also comes with several spells, some offensive and some defensive...

Regarding murder.

Chen Sanshi possesses sword qi techniques, but what he lacks most are defensive methods.

One of them is a defensive spell called "Thick Earth Technique". It can condense a barrier in front of you with spiritual power and block one spell attack. It is considered an excellent spell in the early stage of Qi Refining. The disadvantage is that after it collapses, it takes time to re-form the hand seals and cast the spell. It consumes a lot of spiritual power and is difficult for cultivators to withstand. It is usually used to block and save lives at critical moments.

This spell is a basic spell and not difficult.

Only half a day.

He then successfully learned it.

[Spell: Earth Spell (Beginner)]

【Progress: 0/500】

[Effect: Accumulates without collapsing]

[Accumulating without collapsing: Continuing the spiritual path, neither collapsing nor dissipating]

An ordinary cultivator's Thick Earth Technique is equivalent to a one-time barrier, but in his hands, it is equivalent to a black iron shield that can be held indefinitely, but it requires a constant consumption of spiritual energy to maintain.

and……

Chen Sanshi sensed that the defensive power of the Thick Earth Technique was slightly stronger than the protective aura of a normal martial artist at the Lesser Completion stage of the Profound Elephant realm, but not by much. He estimated that it was about the same as the protective aura of a martial artist whose main attribute was "defense physique".

From this perspective...

Their martial arts skills aren't too weak either.

In most cases, the reason why they are no match for "immortals" is simply because the immortals' methods are too bizarre.

For example, sword energy techniques are extremely difficult to defend against.

on the other hand.

If martial arts practitioners could get close to immortal cultivators.

Therefore, ordinary cultivators would definitely not be able to withstand the protective aura.

As for the Martial Saint, needless to say, his true qi is definitely capable of directly withstanding some spells, as can be seen from the actions of his senior brother Lü Ji on Mount Ziwei.

Not to mention those above the Martial Saint.

Cao Xie stated in his letter that as long as one reaches the level of a Martial Saint, one can establish a foothold in the world of cultivation.

However, the extent to which this "up" can be increased was not specified in more detail.

Even if one achieves mastery or perfection in Qi cultivation, it may not be the limit.

These are two different paths.
