Chapter 256: Chapter 249: Double-Headed Lion?_i

Qin Niu pricked up his ears to listen, for usually, touching upon such profound cultivation knowledge was very difficult.

It turned out that after reaching the Innate Realm, the next level was the Spirit Qi Realm.

The books occasionally mentioned Spirit Masters who could control swords to eliminate demons, likely referring to this very realm.

What kind of miraculous realm was that?

“After breaking through to the Spirit Qi Realm, every subsequent breakthrough is like a chasm in the heavens. You have broken through three realms in just sixty years, which is already monstrously impressive. As for the disciples of the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, many of them have the lingering influence of their parents and a plethora of resources at their disposal, which is why they can meet the selection criteria of the sect before the age of sixty. We grassroots folks have to fight for everything ourselves, so naturally, we can’t compare to them,”

Master He Shan’s eyes were filled with longing as he mentioned the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect.

Almost every cultivator ultimately aspired to enter the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect.

But entrance to the Immortal Gate is difficult, and those lucky enough to be accepted by the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect are few and far between.

One must admit that having a good father at birth can save one thirty years, or even fifty or sixty years, of struggle.

For those with an Immortal Master as a parent, first and foremost, they can practice the highest-quality cultivation techniques from the start, and if there’s anything they don’t understand, they have guidance. This alone is something that many people might not achieve even after thirty years of hard work.

Then, when they encounter bottlenecks in their cultivation, parents will definitely find a way to obtain elixirs that can help break through these boundaries.

Qin Niu, thanks to a single elixir, had broken through directly from the Acquired Realm to the Innate Realm.

This was enviable good luck that made countless commoners weep.

But to those children whose parents were already Immortal Masters, this was nothing at all.

No exaggeration, some second-generation immortals could literally treat Boundary-breaking Elixirs like snacks and munch on a couple whenever they pleased.

In this world, being a rich or official second-generation doesn’t count as true nobility.

But to become a second-generation immortal definitely means defeating 99.999% of people from the moment of birth.

Beyond cultivation techniques and elixirs, there’s also the cultivation environment to consider.

The children of Immortal Masters, if not practicing in naturally spirit Qi-abundant blessed lands, would at least cultivate in man-made environments like the Fang Family Forbidden Land.

The spirit Qi there is several times denser than in the outside world.

Moreover, dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will be good at digging holes.

Immortal Masters themselves are exceedingly exceptional beings, so their offspring are naturally gifted as well.

It’s hard to believe that any Immortal Master would randomly choose a mortal-level beauty as a companion.

As for temporary pleasures, that’s another matter entirely.

Normally, even an emperor would consult with a eunuch before indulging in a moment of pleasure, asking whether to keep or not to keep the favored lady.

If the emperor says not to keep, then the eunuch will take that woman to be cleansed and to take medicine.

Her chances of bearing offspring are almost none.

Immortal Masters needn’t be mentioned; even if tempted by pleasure, they wouldn’t easily impregnate a mortal woman.

What’s more, many Immortal Masters are devoted to cultivating diligently, busy concocting elixirs, cultivating medicinal herbs, searching for those herbs, taming beast pets, focusing on improving their cultivation, and practicing martial arts, with little time for indulgence.

There are rumors that genuine cultivators in pursuit of eternal life are typically detached and serene, devoted to quiet cultivation.

For indulgence in pleasure would ruin one’s Dao heart.

In this regard, whether orthodox cultivators or heretic ones, they are much the same.

Assuming that all demonic cultivators indulge in pleasures of the flesh and kidnap beauties for their enjoyment is something only an idiot would think.

Real demonic cultivators are all ruthless and detached, focused solely on becoming stronger.

“No time to delay, commanders heed my command! Qi Fei, Peng Tianlei, you two lead your soldiers and envelop the enemy from both flanks. Fang Yue, Gao Zongzheng, Sheng Fan, the three of you lead your soldiers to block the powerful enemy at the front. Master He Shan, you command the Insect Master regiment and deal with all the insects on the battlefield. The remaining commanders, join me in laying an ambush, and strive to annihilate the encroaching enemy in one fell swoop,”

Bai Xuezhu issued the battle commands.
