Han Yang understood what the old man meant. The fourth level was the limit he could reach.
If he doesn't undergo the cleansing and marrow removal, although his strength can be improved to a certain extent, he can forget about reaching the fifth level!
"Besides this, cultivators seek to prolong their lifespans, but you have some cultivation skills, but because of the corpse poison, your lifespan may be shorter than that of ordinary humans!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the others also became serious. After all, it was no big deal if their strength could not increase. It was enough now anyway. Moreover, with Han Yang as an example, they still had room for growth.
But lifespan...
No one wants to die!
Live one more day at a time!
"If you are willing, I can give you some elixirs to help you cleanse your hair and marrow, remove the corpse poison, and teach you some basic breathing exercises so that you can embark on the formal path of cultivation!"
After the old man finished speaking, he stopped talking and gave Han Yang and the others some time to think about it.
Qingqing was quite excited. She had always longed to have a formal method of cultivation. In her opinion, the previous method of strengthening oneself by eating spiritual plants was a shortcut, so she had never used it.
In her mind, the true way of cultivation is to follow the practitioners in myths and legends and eat wind and dew.
Hunyuan Jue was the only similar one she had come across, but unfortunately the effect was not obvious. It took her more than three months to reach the third level.
"Senior, we actually learned a method of breathing from the books left by the ancients. I wonder if you can give us some pointers!"
"oh?"
The old man glanced at Qingqing, stretched out his hand, and tapped her wrist in the air.
"Practice the breathing method and let me see it!"
When Qingqing heard this, she felt a warm energy circling around her wrist. She guessed that this might be the old man's detection method, so she didn't think about it anymore and began to practice the Hunyuan Jue.
Han Yang and his companions observed the two of them carefully.
About a quarter of an hour later, Qingqing stopped practicing Hunyuan Jue, opened her eyes and looked at the old man.
The old man withdrew his finger, nodded and smiled, "I underestimated your world. There is actually such a practice method, which is much better than what I want to teach you. The practice method I master is only surpassed by a few in our sect. However, our sect's secret method cannot be passed on to outsiders except for our disciples!"
The old man's words made Han Yang and the others look happy. It seemed that Hunyuan Jue was still a treasure!
As for the sect's mental method that the old man mentioned, I dare not even think about it!
“I cannot teach you the skills, but only give you elixirs. This makes me seem stingy. So, whoever is willing to follow me and cross the boundary, I can accept him as my disciple, bring him into the sect, and officially embark on the path of cultivation.
After all, your world has too little spiritual energy. Even if you have a way to practice, when the descent to the world ends and the two worlds separate, the spiritual energy will eventually dissipate, and your cultivation will no longer be able to advance, and even maintaining your realm will become difficult!"
"What? The spiritual energy will dissipate?"
Although they had expected this, Han Yang and Qing Qing were still somewhat surprised when they heard the old man's words.
"Of course, there are no spiritual veins in your world. The spiritual energy from other worlds will naturally dissipate one day if it loses its source. But I am a little curious. Since there is no spiritual energy in your world, how can there be a method of cultivation? Could it be that some powerful senior has come to your world in the past?"
The old man inquired.
"It's like this..."
Han Yang and Qing Qing talked to each other and briefly recounted the ancient Chinese myths and legends.
"I see. It seems that thousands of years ago, your world also experienced a descent with other worlds, and it took quite some time, which is why so many myths and legends were left behind. After the descent, it took hundreds of years for the spiritual energy to dissipate completely!"
The old man expressed a similar guess to Han Yang and Qing Qing.
"Unfortunately, after my observations over this period of time, I found that this descent into the realm will not last too long. It may end in just over a month, and the spiritual energy left in this realm can only support a few decades before it completely dissipates!"
Han Yang and his companions were disappointed when they heard this. If possible, everyone wanted to stay in the world they were familiar with. It would be great if they could practice cultivation without having to venture into the outside world.
Now it seems impossible!
"Senior, will you only accept one person as your disciple?"
"good!"
The old man nodded. He had just understood the uniqueness of the people in this world through Qingqing's practice of the Hunyuan Jue.
Even without spiritual roots, one can practice cultivation, and it seems that one is born with the method of practicing with minor supernatural powers.
If the people in their world possess sufficient spiritual energy and embark on the path of cultivation, their initial strength will be much stronger than those of the same level.
But there is always a price to pay!
In the early stages of practice, one's strength progresses by leaps and bounds, but after reaching the foundation-building stage, one will be limited by talent, progress will be slow, and time will be wasted.
He only accepts one person, which means that he only needs one person to study the practice of the people in this world. He also can only take care of one person, rebuild the foundation, and make the path smoother after the foundation is established.
Although cultivation requires personal understanding and opportunity, he also doesn't want this group of people to enter the world of cultivation and ultimately find that there is no progress, and instead die in a foreign land.
"Then senior, can we enter your realm by ourselves?"
Han Yang asked unwillingly.
If only one person is accepted, what will happen to the women on Jinsha Island?
"Of course you can, but this fusion world is located in the extremely dangerous Ten Thousand Mountains in the Southern Wilderness. Otherwise, how come only I and that monster discovered it? With your strength, you can't get out..."
The old man shook his head!
"That……"
Han Yang wanted to say something, but the old man interrupted him and said, "How about this, I have just recovered from my injuries and am going to travel around this world. I will give you a month to consider. After a month, you can decide on a candidate and come here!"
After the old man finished speaking, without waiting for Han Yang and the others to reply, he turned into a stream of light, flew eastward, and disappeared into the sky.
When the old man disappeared, everyone looked at Han Yang!
"Brother Han..."
Nan Nan said with some reluctance.
She guessed a possibility.
Qingqing wanted to say something but stopped herself, but she didn't say it in the end, her eyes became more determined!
"Since the old man said that the dense forest ahead is too dangerous and beyond our ability to deal with, we should not explore it and just go back!"
Han Yang was stunned for a moment and smiled at everyone.
"What are you looking at? It's great to meet an immortal. There are also elixirs that can help us get rid of the corpse poison!"
"Humph, I'm just afraid you'll leave..."
Nan Nan muttered.
"It's too early to talk about this. There's still a month left. Let's go back and tell Xiao Kui and the others about the situation here!"
Upon hearing this, everyone followed Han Yang back, but compared to their cautious optimism when they came, everyone was much quieter this time.
Back on the yacht, Chunchun put away the anchor and turned back.
On the deck, Han Yang and Qing Qing stood at the bow, looking at the mist getting closer and closer. Han Yang suddenly asked, "Do you want to go?"
Qingqing was silent and did not answer!
"I know. If you want to go, even if the old man doesn't take you away, you will be stranded in the Hundred Thousand Mountains!"
Qingqing still didn't say anything, but suddenly hugged Han Yang, bursting out with unprecedented enthusiasm!
"Don't talk, kiss me..."
