Grandpa looked at Jiang Feng lovingly and said, "Feng'er, remember what Grandpa said. The immortals and gods who seem high and mighty are not necessarily as good as you think. In order to obtain cultivation resources, natural materials and treasures, it is common for them to kill and rob."
Jiang Feng nodded
After another drink, Grandpa spoke again, "As long as there's a world of cultivation, there must be cultivators. Cultivators also have different levels. They are: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Fusion, and Great Accomplishment. Each level is further divided into early, middle, and late stages. Until the Great Accomplishment, those who feel the power of heaven and earth, undergo the baptism of thunder, and transform their spiritual power into immortal power to ascend to the immortal realm.
Immortals are divided into: True Immortals, Celestial Immortals, Golden Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Emperors.
Gods: True God, Heavenly God, God King, God Emperor, God Venerable
Each realm is also divided into early, middle and late stages."
This overwhelming amount of information made Jiang Feng feel as if he had entered a new world. He asked softly, "Grandpa, I remember you once said that everything in the world has a spirit. Can they all practice cultivation?" Grandpa replied, "Yes, not only can they practice cultivation, but they can even practice cultivation faster than humans. Some monsters have powerful bloodlines and inheritance, so they can practice cultivation with half the effort. Some mythical beasts even dominate one side, and no one dares to provoke them easily. Among them, the four major families of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise are the most powerful. Their clansmen are spread all over the world. These four families possess mysterious power and endless wealth, involving various fields. Their influence is enough to shake the entire world. Of course, there are also some ancient mythical beasts, which you will know about later."
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and asked, "Grandpa, what level were those two monsters?"
"Those two little guys are both in the late Foundation Establishment stage. The object they're fighting for is called the Transformation Golden Lotus, which can increase their cultivation and allow demon beasts that have reached the Golden Core stage to transform into human form and speak human language. Normally, demon beasts have to reach the Nascent Soul stage to achieve this. The path of cultivation is inherently against the will of heaven. Not to mention how terrifying the thunder tribulations of the Nascent Soul stage are, many cultivators never have the chance to reach that level in their lifetime. Some demon beasts with good talents may be subdued by powerful beings and become spiritual pets during their growth."
"Grandpa, why didn't you take the Transformation Golden Lotus?" Jiang Feng asked anxiously. If he used the Golden Lotus in the future, he might be able to lure a spirit pet to serve as his mount. Jiang Feng thought it was very cool and couldn't help laughing.
Grandpa picked up the chopsticks on the table and knocked them on Jiang Feng's head: "Idiot, if you can pick them, do you think the demon tiger will still wait for you? The spiritual herbs and precious medicines in the world must be harvested when they are mature and sealed with spirit instruments. Some spiritual instruments and precious medicines even become intelligent when they are mature, so you have to set up a formation in advance to collect them."
Grandpa flipped his hand and pulled out two objects: a turquoise vase and a ring with a dragon head and tiger body, and handed them to Jiang Feng. Filled with curiosity and anticipation, Jiang Feng carefully took the two mysterious treasures from Grandpa's hands and began to examine them carefully. The vase was uniquely shaped and exquisitely crafted, with exquisite carvings on it, exuding a simple and mysterious aura. The ring was even more eye-catching. Its material was neither gold nor jade, but it exuded a subtle spiritual aura. The dragon and tiger reliefs on the ring were lifelike, as if they were about to come alive.
At this time, the grandfather who had been silent finally spoke: "My child, this vase is called the 'Eight Treasures Bottle'. It is a rare treasure that can be used to store all kinds of precious elixirs in the world! And this ring is called the 'Dragon and Tiger Ring'. It has a vast world of its own and can hold anything except living things." As soon as the words fell, two demon pills flashing with faint light slowly floated in front of Jiang Feng. When he looked closely, weren't they the remains of the ferocious tiger demon and the powerful black bear that had just been killed?
At this moment, Jiang Feng was already too excited to express his feelings in words. He stared at the two treasures and two demon pills in front of him with wide eyes, his hands even trembling with excitement. At this moment, his grandfather's steady voice rang out again, "My dear grandson, if you want to truly control these rare treasures and bring out their true power, you must first make them recognize you as your master. Generally speaking, you only need to drop a drop of your blood essence on the treasure to complete the recognition ceremony."
After hearing his grandfather's words, Jiang Feng unhesitatingly picked up a knife, gently cut his finger, and squeezed out a drop of bright red blood essence, which he then dripped onto the Eight Treasures Vase and the Dragon Tiger Ring. As soon as the blood essence came into contact with the two treasures, it was immediately absorbed. Surprisingly, the Eight Treasures Vase showed no noticeable changes after receiving the blood essence, but the Dragon Tiger Ring suddenly vanished as if it had vanished into thin air!
Just as Jiang Feng was feeling extremely confused, he suddenly noticed a small, exquisite dragon and tiger totem had appeared on his right index finger. He subconsciously closed his eyes and concentrated on sensing this newly appeared totem. In an instant, he felt as if his consciousness had passed through an invisible barrier and entered a strange and vast space.
When Jiang Feng opened his eyes, he was stunned by what he saw—this space was incredibly vast, a rough estimate suggesting it was at least the size of dozens of standard football fields! Furthermore, the light was bright and soft, the ground was as smooth as a mirror, and a faint mist permeated the air, creating a fairyland-like experience. Jiang Feng attempted to control his movements with his mind, and indeed, he was able to move freely within the space. As his thoughts moved, the two demon pills, previously suspended in the air, and the eight-treasure vase beside them were drawn in, rapidly flying into this magical space.
