Yuan Huang's apology lacked sincerity, and Hu Le, in a good mood today, didn't hold it against the little guy.
"Since you've all come, I'll explain some Taoist arts and supernatural powers to you," Hu Le said with a smile.
Only those above the Great Luo level are qualified to preach. With Hu Le's current level of cultivation, if he were to preach, it would only make him a laughing stock.
"Thank you, teacher." Guan Kong and the others readily agreed, each taking a futon, placing it on the ground, and sitting down.
Hu Le was naturally talking about the contents of the Taiyi Initial Golden Chapter, which was mostly about Qi cultivation methods, as well as some Taoist techniques and supernatural powers.
In addition, there are some techniques for tempering the physical body that he deduced and summarized from the secret methods of Pangu's physical body.
It seemed a bit disorganized, but it was all valuable information. The disciples listened with great interest, paying close attention and not daring to miss a single detail...
Good times always pass quickly, and the next day he stopped preaching and ordered them to go back.
Even though he only spoke for one day, the content was already substantial enough for these little ones to study and ponder for some time...
After the disciples bid farewell and left Lingyun Hall, Hu Le continued his cultivation.
Now that he has survived the tribulation of his lifespan, there are no longer any obstacles to his cultivation of Qi Refining Techniques, and he can cultivate all the way to the forty-fifth level of Qi Refining.
However, if you want to break through to the forty-sixth heaven, you will need to overcome the next five signs of decay in the celestial realm.
Not only that, but for each subsequent breakthrough in the Heavenly Realm, one must first undergo a great tribulation, until the forty-ninth Heaven, condense the Dao Seed, and successfully escape the River of Destiny, only then can one be considered to have achieved the Great Luo status.
Once you reach the thirtieth level of Qi Refining or above, the amount of magical power required to break through each level is several times that of the previous level. Especially above the fortieth level, the amount of innate spiritual energy required to break through is enormous.
In normal times, relying solely on the innate spiritual energy of heaven and earth, even in a top-tier blessed land like Penglai Island, it would take hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to accumulate enough magical power to break through after reaching the fortieth level of heaven.
Hu Le was able to cultivate so quickly thanks to the many Xuanpin Creation Essences he obtained in the Yuanqi Tide, as well as other treasures that could increase his magical power.
However, after several breakthroughs, the foundation he had accumulated from the primordial energy tide was almost exhausted. If he wanted to break through again, he could only honestly absorb and exhale innate spiritual energy and increase his magic power little by little through painstaking effort.
According to his estimate, if he wants to break through to the next level, he would need to absorb and exhale spiritual energy for at least 50,000 years.
How he longs for the second surge of vitality to arrive soon!
Unfortunately, the next primordial tide is still over ten thousand years away, and all we can do now is wait patiently...
Thus, Hu Le stayed on Penglai Island, constantly refining his magical power. Sometimes he would explain Taoist magic and supernatural powers to his disciples, and in his spare time he would also refine a few spiritual treasures or burn a furnace of golden pills.
Alchemy is relatively easy to do; although there are occasional failures, successes are far more frequent.
As for refining spiritual treasures, although his cultivation level is many times higher than before, his skills are still as rudimentary as ever. Over the years, he has ruined countless spiritual treasures and wasted countless materials.
However, he was also persistent, fighting and failing repeatedly, never giving up from beginning to end.
Anyway, there are plenty of spiritual materials in the treasure troves of Penglai Immortal Island and the human race of Buyou Kongfang Mountain, so he can squander them as much as he wants.
After all, he's just one person; how much can he really squander...?
And so, life remained calm and peaceful until the day of the second surge of vitality finally arrived.
The cultivators on Penglai Island were already eager and ready to fight.
To ensure the safety of his disciples, he summoned Guan Kong and the others to his side.
Guan Kong is alright, as he already has the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, the Sun and Moon Divine Light Mirror, and the Innate Yin-Yang Dust-Washing Blade to protect him. As long as he doesn't go to the upper levels, he shouldn't encounter any life-threatening dangers.
What worried him most were Yuan Huang and the other two.
He temporarily lent all his spiritual treasures, except for the Kan-Di-Gen-Kun Banner and the Purple Bamboo Staff, a magical artifact for proving his Dao, to Yuan Huang, Kong Kong'er, and Jing Jing'er.
This made Guan Kong, who was standing to the side, quite envious.
"Teacher, you are so biased! They all have magical treasures, how come you forgot about me?"
Hu Le pointed his bamboo staff at the sky and laughed, "You little brat, you can't possibly lack spiritual treasures, but I really can't be biased. Here is a Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill, which was personally refined by the Kunlun Taiqing Daoist. I will bestow it upon you today."
As he spoke, he took out the gourd containing the pills, poured out a golden pill, and gave it to Guan Kong.
At the time, the Taoist Taiqing only gave him a gourd, which seemed like a lot, but actually only a dozen or so grains.
However, in reality, Master Taiqing was already quite generous, since although he was skilled in alchemy, he didn't actually have many Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pills.
Over the years, Hu Le has been very frugal with this pill, rarely taking it unless absolutely necessary.
Even so, half of them have already been used up, and there are only a few left...
As for the many golden pills he has refined over the years, how can their wondrous effects compare to the Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill?
Besides, he had casually placed all those pills in the alchemy room in the back hall. Guan Kong and the others could take them whenever they wanted, so there was no need for Hu Le to personally bestow them upon them...
After Hu Le distributed the spiritual treasures, he waited another day. The next day, the sky was sunny and the clouds were floating. But deep within the source of the primordial energy, a tide erupted once again.
Hu Le sat upright on the cloud bed, first releasing his primordial spirit, then soaring into the sky and heading directly into the depths of the void.
A short while later, he arrived at the first level of the Primordial Tide, passed through the Gate of Mysterious Female, and without lingering, headed straight for the second level.
Halfway there, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared. He simply shook his bamboo staff and used the innate five-colored divine light to envelop it.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered to be a mass of mysterious female essence.
This was only the first level, and the quality of this "Mysterious Female Essence Theory" was far inferior to the top level. However, even a mosquito's leg is meat, so he put it away, considering it better than nothing.
And so he rushed all the way to the second floor, collecting any treasures he encountered along the way.
At first, collecting treasures didn't take much effort. With the release of the five-colored divine light, everything was swept away, and nothing that was targeted by him could escape.
However, once you reach the sixth level and above, many treasures begin to possess a certain degree of sentience. They can escape and hide, making it much more difficult to collect them. It often takes him some time to chase after them and capture them.
And so, he finally arrived at the last gate of the Mysterious Female, where Taiyi and his wife, along with the others, were already waiting...
