729 Spiritual Realm (2/2)

Of course, what was currently said was entirely in the language of the Spiritual Realm and was definitely incomprehensible to an ordinary Dream Master.

However, Fang Yuan's spiritual will quietly extended and watched stealthily… and with the additional of powerful deduction, he could roughly understand what was said soon.

”Yes. I'm already 30% proficient in the Heavenly Eyes technique and just discovered that there were signs of gathering Spiritual Energy on this mountain!”

The male cultivator standing on a flying sword said, ”Junior Sister, you also know that this mountain range is not some blessed heavenly abode and definitely won't have any Spiritual Energy accumulating. This phenomenon that appeared is the birth of a rare treasure, or perhaps the sign that a hidden abode is about to be opened. This is our chance!”

In the Spiritual Realm, the True Cultivators were high above, while there was a mixture of contaminated energy within the secular world's thin Spiritual Energy. Thus, they were all focused on cultivating on top of their sect's spirit vein.

When they occasionally went down the mountains, they definitely had important issues to deal with, or they were perhaps looking for fortune.

”We're all already at Stellar Malignance. This time, we went down the mountains not to extravagantly hope to obtain any magical treasures, but instead only hoping to find suitable Qi of Stellar Heaven and Malignant Earth to advance our cultivation and condense our Essence Soul. This is the right path!”

This junior sister spoke slowly but extremely resolutely.

Spiritual Realm cultivation, where ordinary people could step onto the extraordinary path, was called 'True Cultivation'. It had three large stages—Qi Refinement, Stellar Malignance, and Essence Soul. In every large stage, there were many small stages.

And if an Essence Soul continued to ascend, they were no longer a True Cultivator, but an 'Immortal'! These people truly exceeded the mundane to become Sages, and could become sect founders!

And the areas that had Spiritual Energy would definitely be occupied by sects, families, or powerful cultivators. Occasionally, when a high-level spirit vein appeared, it would definitely cause a battle over it.

The sect system was the core of the True Cultivators.

Inside the sect, Qi Refinement was just a miscellaneous affairs or external disciple. Cultivating to Stellar Malignance would allow one to ride the winds and be freed of the world. They were the sect's inner disciples and would receive the core teachings.

As for Essence Soul, it could be discovered but not sought. Aptitude and luck were both indispensable. Once there was a breakthrough, their lifespan would dramatically increased, and the sect would be in huge celebration. That was the same level as an elder or sect head.

”Break through to Essence Soul!”

With yearning in his eyes, the male cultivator said in a low voice, ”That's easier said than done. There are thirteen levels to Qi Refinement, and each must be taken one step at a time. There are already countless disciples who are stuck at this stage. We're already very lucky to be able to break through to Stellar Malignance, but it's an even more difficult to find the Qi of Stellar Heaven and Malignant Earth suitable for our cultivation techniques!”

”The Dark Mystic Powers that I'm cultivating requires the Earth Fire Yin Malignance and Dark Heaven Stellar Qi. As for the Heaven Reaching Sword Art, it requires Ge Metal Malignance and White Tiger Stellar Qi… Although it's very rare, there's still hope!” the female cultivator murmured.

”I heard that in the past, Qi of Stellar Heaven and Malignant Earth could be seen everywhere and used by anyone. There were even various precious Malignant Qi and Stellar Qi… Unfortunately, as time passed, they gradually became fewer… If I could become an Immortal or gain the assistance of an Immortal elder, it'd an easy task no matter whether it was Nine Heavens Stellar Qi or Nine Nether Malignant Qi! Unfortunately… we're just in a small sect without much reputation yet. Throughout history, it has only had two Immortals. The current sect master and elder are both at Essence Soul…”

The male cultivator sighed.

Essence Soul was considered very powerful in the Spiritual Realm. They could astrally project within tens of thousands of kilometers and display the magical powers of many unbelievable abilities. However, they were still more than one realm away from being a true Immortal.

”This time we went down the mountains to train and seek for opportunities. Perhaps… the Spiritual Energy in this mountain suddenly accumulating indicates that our opportunity has arrived?” The female cultivator spoke to herself, and her beautiful eyes constantly looked about. Suddenly, she saw something. ”There seems to be someone lying over there!”

”Could it be that the accumulation of Spiritual Energy just now was related to him? Is it a high-level True Cultivator that met with some adversity? Or perhaps someone with treasures on him?”

The male cultivator landed on the ground and held onto his flying sword. An unexplainable expression flashed in his eyes.

Meeting a high-level True Cultivator in the wild was both a risk and an opportunity.

If it was those demonic cultivators with some energy still in them, they would unhesitatingly kill a small True Cultivator walking past! Even a good person might not necessarily be able to maintain their morals at this moment, and any rash action could lead to life endangerment.

There were, however, two types of opportunities.

One was to take the initiative to treat and cure them, forming good relations; the other was to steal their treasures and cultivation techniques.

In a world where it was the survival of the fittest and the weak were the prey of the strong, such merciless laws of natural selection were also implemented within the sects of Spiritual Realm.

”Senior Brother?”

The junior sister with a noble personality also took out a magic artifact shaped like a white jade lotus flower and seemed that she was following the male cultivator's lead.

I'll go over to take a look first!

He walked forward and said, ”Friend… you…”

While he was speaking, the male cultivator's spiritual will scanned and he greatly frowned. ”That's not correct… how is it that he gives me the impression of an ordinary person? How could an ordinary person attract Spiritual Energy? No… this seems like an unimportant person who has just started cultivating and is only at first or second level of Qi Refinement.”

Whoosh!

At this moment, Fang Yuan suddenly sat up, scaring the female cultivator.

”Alright, you two kids, don't be afraid. Who are you?”

Fang Yuan laughed, and impressively, he could clearly articulate the language of Spiritual Realm.

”Kid?!”

The male cultivator was a little infuriated. However, seeing that Fang Yuan had a spirit that struck fear in people, he strongly suppressed his anger. ”I beg your pardon, Your Excellency's name is…”

In his mind, he had already rapidly scanned through all the famous loose cultivators in this region, but did not find anyone who coincided with this person before him.

Fang Yuan raised his head and casually said, ”My name is Fang Yuan!”
