Lin Caogen was greatly surprised when he heard Li Xunhuan mention the ancient god clan!
It seems that the existence of gods is not a secret! When one's cultivation reaches a certain level and one's social status reaches a certain point, one will naturally know more secrets.
Li Xunhuan continued, "Although I don't know what kind of body-refining technique you cultivate, I can sense that it must be an extremely terrifying technique with no limit to its cultivation! Am I right?"
Lin Caogen nodded and said, "Sect Master, you are absolutely right!"
Li Xunhuan continued, "Cultivators on the Immortal Continent primarily focus on Qi cultivation; few dedicate themselves solely to physical training! But you are different! You can cultivate your physical body to a minor level of mastery, then begin practicing Qi cultivation, while simultaneously continuing to cultivate your physical body. You can manage both! By the way, Grassroot! Let me test you! What are essence, Qi, and spirit?"
Lin Caogen said, "Jing refers to the essence and blood, which is the body's innate power. Qi refers to breathing, which is absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Shen refers to the spirit and soul, which is the human soul!"
Li Xunhuan said, "That's right! Essence is the strength of the physical body, Qi is the power of primordial energy, and Shen is the power of the soul, which is what we commonly call spiritual power! To become a god, essence, Qi, and Shen are all indispensable! The ancient god race excels in physical strength, but that doesn't mean their Qi and Shen are weak! Do you understand?"
Lin Caogen suddenly realized, "Sect Master! I understand why there are no gods in this world! None of the Ten Immortal Emperors cultivate their physical body, vital energy, and divine soul simultaneously!"
Li Xunhuan said, "That's right! The path to godhood must involve cultivating one's essence, qi, and spirit to the peak of the 9th level of the Immortal Emperor realm simultaneously! Only by transforming one qi into the Three Pure Ones and then unifying the Three Pure Ones into one can one become a god! These are all my speculations! But I think my speculations are correct! Theoretically speaking, this is indeed a necessary condition for becoming a god!"
Lin Caogen said, "Hearing a single word from you, Sect Master, today is truly worth more than ten years of study!"
Li Xunhuan laughed and said, "Let's get down to business! Today, I mainly want to teach you the ultimate flying knife technique. Your brain's processing ability is extraordinary! You can skip the arduous process of cultivating mental strength just by relying on your brain! If you cultivate mental strength in the future and enhance your soul, combined with your extraordinary brain, your strength will definitely increase greatly!"
Lin Caogen was deeply moved!
If it weren't for the scientific brilliance that has awakened in my mind over the years, allowing me to develop 90% of my brain, I probably wouldn't have been able to achieve what I have today!
Li Xunhuan threw his flying knife, which spun around in the bamboo forest before flying back into his hand! A hundred green bamboos were cut down by the flying knife.
It's not difficult to control a flying knife to cut down a hundred bamboo stalks; the real challenge is making the knife fly back! This requires an extremely refined control of force!
Lin Caogen also tried it out, copying the example! Fortunately, his brain had amazing processing power! He could accurately analyze the influencing factors such as the angle, force, and rebound speed of each impact of the throwing knife blade!
After hundreds of trials, Lin Caogen was able to cut down more than a hundred bamboo trees with a flying knife and then fly it back into his hand.
Li Xunhuan laughed, "You probably have millions of abacuses in your head! Ordinary people couldn't possibly achieve such precision with just their brains! Even a Celestial Emperor couldn't! If your brain could also be cultivated, you might become an existence more terrifying than a god! Cultivating essence, energy, spirit, and brain! It's truly unimaginable what realm a person would reach if they could cultivate all four!"
Lin Caogen was also deeply moved!
As an earthling, I possess astonishing talents, yet I am suppressed within the cage of this earth! Six billion of my compatriots are still living in dire straits, worrying about birth, aging, illness, and death; worrying about buying a house and a car; worrying about getting married and having children; worrying about repaying loans and paying social security! How pitiful they are!
In contrast, the inhabitants of the Immortal Continent, even ordinary mortals who don't cultivate, have an average lifespan of over a thousand years! And they are virtually free of incurable diseases! On the Immortal Continent, ordinary people can still cultivate, fight monsters, and level up, becoming powerful figures who dominate their regions! Without the burden of disease and the limitation of lifespan, people can pursue their dreams!
Li Xunhuan said, "You have already learned the boomerang blade! You just need to practice more in the future! Next, I will teach you the piercing blade! The key to this blade is that once it is thrown, it will never return. Its power is astonishing, and it can kill many people with one strike."
After saying that, Li Xunhuan threw his flying knife, which moved like lightning!
Two hundred bamboo stalks were pierced through!
Finally, the throwing knife stuck into the 201st bamboo!
Lin Caogen started studying and practicing diligently again! In two whole days, Lin Caogen had mastered all thirteen ways of throwing knives from the Little Li Flying Dagger Manual.
Soon, the day of the Top 100 Sects Tournament arrived!
The group arrived at the gymnasium! This place was originally where the common people of Gaojing City exercised! Today, it had been temporarily converted into a martial arts arena!
Ten arenas had been erected in the largest stadium in the capital city of Gaojing, accommodating ten groups of contestants simultaneously!
An old monster at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage, holding a megaphone, proclaimed: "Distinguished guests, your presence from afar is truly a blessing for the city of Haojing! As the saying goes, 'Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?' I am Zhou You, the city lord of Haojing! Today is the Hundred Strongest Sects Tournament. For thousands of years, this competition has not only strengthened the teaching of disciples by various sects, but also brought about economic prosperity, tourism prosperity, and martial arts prosperity! Now I announce: The draw begins!"
Yun Hai said, “Grassroots! The draw has begun! You don’t need to worry about drawing a strong opponent! In this first round of the draw, the top 50 sects from last year will be drawn together, and the sects ranked after 50 will be drawn in the second round! If sects outside the top 100 want to advance, they can directly challenge the 100th ranked sect after the competition ends.”
Lin Caogen nodded. Last year, thanks to the efforts of all its disciples, their Wuwei Sect barely managed to achieve a respectable 88th place among the top 100 sects. This was an achievement obtained while disciples like Mu Wanqing, Zuo Chan, and Zhong Kui were cultivating on the Fragmented Continent. Its prestige was quite high. However, last year's competition emphasized team battles, requiring 100 disciples to participate, and the strength of the sect's disciples was judged through team combat!
