BXBX NOVEL Chapter 499 - No Title.
Yang Dao woke up the next day and after finishing his daily training routine the book decided to pay a visit to his master. He wanted to know more about the cultivation levels. It was not that he did not have much knowledge, but he wanted to know the reason behind why the elder who appeared yesterday was stronger than his master.
He took out his flying sword and made his way to his Master\'s residence. The sovereign palace stood elegantly, adding charm to the surroundings. Yang Dao stepped down his flying sword and walked inside. There were a lot of servants who recognized him and greeted him. The boy smiled and gave them all a warm response. He did not have an air of high and mighty around him.
Reaching the meditation room of his master, he found two elderly people standing outside guarding the order, he asked gently, "Seniors, is master in seclusion?"
Before the people could reply, a calm voice sounded, "Dao, come inside."
The guarding elder opened the doos slowly and the boy walked inside. Sun Eckhart sat in front of him and said, "Sit."
Yang Dao sat down on a cushion in the room, facing the sect master. The latter asked, "What bought you here?"
"I have a few questions, master. I was hoping you would explain it to me." replied the young boy.
Sun Eckhart nodded and Yang Dao continued, "Master, what is the identity of the elder of law enforcement hall? How can he be stronger than you? I also, want to ask about cultivation realms."
The man nodded calmly and said, "The identity of the elder is a secret, he is my martial uncle in a way, he guards over the laws and safety of the sect. The rest you will you know when the time is ripe."
Yang Dao nodded, he understood that he was being too curious. The sect master continued to resolve the next question, "Martial Uncle is stronger than me because his cultivation level is higher than mine. The common people in this part of the plane only know the immortal soul realm.
The cultivation realms are the Body formation realm where a practitioner will temper their body, starting from muscles, bones, organs. The next realm is the Spirit Gathering Realm, after the body is tempered it has to be nourished with spirit energy. A tempered body helps a practitioner sense the spirit energy around them better. In the spirit gathering realm, one nourishes the body with spirit energy.
It starts with, skin, muscles, bones, blood, organs, meridians, bone marrow, acupoints, and in the end after opening the dantian you crosse into the spirit formation realm. This realm is also called Foundation Building Realm. One is required to concentrate the spirit energy inside their dantian and compress it into spirit essence.
This essence will be stored inside the dantian and circulated through the body for more strength. You are aware of the drops of spirit essence one needs to breakthrough?"
Yang Dao nodded forcefully. The man smiled faintly and continued, "If you have any doubts, you can ask."
Yang Dao nodded again and waited for Sun Eckhart to continue, he was not confused till this point as he was already in the spirit formation realm. So, he had a good understanding of this realm.
"Next comes Golden Core realm, one is needed to compress the spirit sea inside the dantian into a seed as big as a longan bead. This seed is called the golden core. The size of the core will increase as it absorbs the spirit energy. The peak of the golden core will be achieved when the core is as big as a quail egg.
The next realm is the Nascent Soul Realm. Channeling the spirit energy through the pineal gland awakens the soul sea. The soul sea is the place where the primordial infant resides, this infant is our true soul. As your soul sea is nourished, the infant will grow up. When the primordial infant represents your youthful appearance, that is the peak of the nascent soul realm.
Then comes Ascended Mortal realm, when your nascent soul is completely awakened, even if your physical body is destroyed, you can live in a spiritual form. So you are called an ascended mortal. An ascended mortal trains himself by pursuing the dao. For instance, if you have an affinity to the elements then you must perceive a characteristic of the elements.
When you are one with the element, for example, the attribute of your spirit energy is similar to the element you have perceived, and your physical body has assimilated the comprehended characteristic of the element you pursued, you will reach the peak of ascended mortal form.
The next is to do the same thing in your soul sea, that is when you get immortal soul realm. These are the realms known to people in this region of the immortal plane. Other than this a whole other level exists. My martial Uncle is a person who is one step ahead of the Immortal soul realm. Do you understand?"
Yang Dao nodded and asked, "Master, can you tell me what are the other realms of cultivation?"
The elder man smiled and said, "The time is not yet ripe Dao. This much knowledge will make you eager and then you will rush forward. If you can reach the nascent soul realm in two years, I will tell you about the rest. How about that?"
The boy thought about it and nodded. Then he said, "Master, can I take on sect disciple tasks? Elder Jing will not allow me to practice alchemy all I do is read all day, I get bored."
He was a child after all. Sun Eckhart chuckled and said, "Very well, you can take on the tasks, but you must bring along Alisha with you. You are still too young. Okay?"
The boy nodded and then he bade farewell to the man. Sun Eckhart said after Yang Dao left, "Zheng."
A shadow appeared behind him, and the figure bowed as he said, "Master."
This figure was Sun Eckharts personal guard forces troop. The sect master said, "Go, protect him."
"Yes, Master." said the figure and vanished back in the shadows as if it never existed.
...
Yang Dao took out his flying sword and excitedly rushed to the alchemy hall. He came to the first floor of the alchemy hall. His arrival attracted a lot of attention and the people all greeted him. The boy also politely greeted them in return. He came to the bulletin board where the tasks were listed.
A familiar voice sounded behind him, "Junior brother Yang, are you taking up any tasks?"
Yang Dao turned his head and smiled as he said, "Senior brother Thale, long time no see. Yes, Master allowed me to take on tasks."
The person was Thale. He nodded and said, "Junior brother, what is your current level of cultivation?"
The boy said, "Third level spirit formation." while continuously looking at the bulletin.
Thale said, "How about tagging with us? We have a task that needs us to hunt a three-headed moon wolf. The gains are good. We have a four people team, with you along, we will have five. How about it?"
Yang Dao thought and said, "I get an equal share?"
Thale nodded with a smile. The boy said, "Okay. I agree, I will call senior sister Alisha, Master told me to bring her along or I am not allowed to go out."
The two people made an arrangement to meet at the teleportation array and left to gather their people. The news that Yang Dao has taken up a task spread through the disciples. After yesterday\'s performance, he had gained a lot of popularity and it was to the point where he was being watched by everyone.
This attention might have made it difficult for him to stay low-key but it provided him protection from any of the Yue MIng gang people. If anyone tried to make things difficult for him and put obstacles, then they will incur public wrath. After all, the boy had inspired a lot of people.
The disciples have begun to use the heavenly staircase to temper their will and bodies. The morale and mood of the sect were high. The five planets were bustling with activity and positivity. The excitement of anticipated challenges was clear among everyone and the prime disciples were not slacking anymore. This was all because of this boy.
The elders of the sect looked at Yang Dao as if a heavenly treasure bestowed upon them. They all cared a lot for him and this time when he has taken up a task, the watchful gazes were on complete alert.
...
Yang Dao and Alisha stood at the teleportation formation, waiting for Thale and his team to arrive.. Soon the people came over and Yang Dao was surprised to see that a member of the team was Daina Fray.
