“I would also like to go, but I am short of points.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but shake his head.
Although he could possibly win first place in the Magic Duel, if the four major Daoist Academies didn’t want to accept him, they could completely reject him by setting a points threshold.
At this moment, all he could do was to perform to the best of his ability in the Magic Duel.
“Don’t worry, with your outstanding performance, the four Daoist Academies would definitely be willing to lower their points threshold to accept you,” said Qing Nu.
Her words gave Chen Mobai a slight confidence boost.
“I have done all I can; the rest is up to fate. Even if I can’t enter the four Daoist Academies, it’s not impossible for me to ascend to become an Immortal if I go to Pure Yang Academy or Primordial Elemental Academy.”
The ultimate goal of all cultivators on the planet Earth Element Star is to Ascend to Immortality.
In front of Qing Nu, Chen Mobai allowed himself to express his desires for reaching the pinnacle of Cultivation realm.
“If your goal is to ascend to Immortality, then you should start cultivating the Original Soul Technique.”
After hearing this, Qing Nu began giving serious advice to Chen Mobai.
“Oh? Why is that? Isn’t it said that of the 84,000 Daoist scriptures in the Immortal Cultivation path, in the end, all lead to the seven Original Soul Cultivation Techniques?”
Chen Mobai found it strange. In his impression, the Cultivation Technique pyramid of the Immortal Path should allow anyone from the base of the pyramid to reach the pinnacle in the end.
“I heard this from my teacher. The Cultivation Techniques in the National Library are based on the seven Original Soul Techniques, but they have essentially become the paths that the talented individuals have carved out for themselves.”
“If you want to return to the original path of Ascendancy, after Nascent Soul Formation, you need to spend some time transitioning to an Original Soul Cultivation Technique. If they share the same origin, at most, it would be a waste of a few decades. But if their origins are too different, then you can only carve out your own Path to Immortality or ponder upon the Jade Purity Scripture, which is very difficult.”
“But if you are confident in yourself and resolutely practice the Elemental Soul Technique from the beginning, at the very least, you can save several decades to ponder on the Elemental Soul Technique after Nascent Soul Formation.”
After listening to Qing Nu’s words, Chen Mobai carefully thought about it, and indeed, it was as she said.
If he aimed to Ascend from the beginning and solidly laid his foundations with this goal throughout his Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Nascent Soul periods, then indeed he could be more confident during the final step of condensing his Elemental Soul.
If that was the case, then the reason “Pure Yang Scroll” and “Jade Purity Scripture” had been recommended out of the 30 Cultivation Techniques for Chen Mobai by the artificial spiritual being in the National Library was probably because they were aimed at helping him Ascend.
[My Spiritual Root Talents are average, so these two are the most suitable Elemental Soul Techniques for me.]
Chen Mobai suddenly realized.
Of the seven Elemental Soul Techniques in the Immortal path, the other five had extremely strict prerequisites, not even Heavenly Spiritual Roots could necessarily meet.
In theory, the Pure Yang Scroll should also be like this, only those with Pure Yang Daoist bodies could cultivate it. However, after Elder Yuan Yang risked his life to test the technique and succeed in forming the Elemental Soul, he created a post-natal cultivation method for the Pure Yang Daoist body, allowing all living beings to adopt the Pure Yang Daoist body, an achievement of immeasurable merit.
“If you are going to Jumang Dao Academy, you will certainly cultivate the Lasting Spring Cultivation. It’s said that after cultivating it, you will remain forever young. It’s truly a great fit for you girls,” Chen Mobai commented, thinking about Ascendancy, as they were within his cave dwelling.
She removed her mask and hat, exposing her stunningly beautiful face, which time should never erode.
“This may not be feasible. Lasting Spring Cultivation is an Ascendancy Technique that only those with Earth, Water and Wood Heavenly Spiritual Roots can cultivate. I only have a Heavenly Water Spiritual Root. I fear I can only attempt it after Nascent Soul Formation,”
Qing Nu shook her head, revealing a truth that greatly surprised Chen Mobai.
“Earth, Water and Wood Heavenly Spiritual Roots all needed for Cultivation?! Where can we find such a person among Immortal cultivators?”
“None are born with it, but we can cultivate it after birth. The techniques in our sect to promote and purify the Spiritual Root were originally created by those with great power, who wanted to cultivate immensely demanding techniques such as Lasting Spring Cultivation.”
Having heard what Qing Nu said and having thought about his own Spiritual Root Attributes, Chen Mobai was left speechless.
He had thought that since Qing Nu started with Heavenly Spiritual Root, she had already reached the peak at the start. He hadn’t expected that even she couldn’t cultivate the Lasting Spring Cultivation.
If he wanted to Ascend with his slightly above-average Spiritual Root, he might really be left with the choice to cultivate only “Pure Yang Scroll” or “Jade Purity Scripture”.
Of course, Chen Mobai could also choose to first cultivate a more common technique, such as the Five Elements Cultivation.
This fundamental Immortal Cultivation Technique can be cultivated until the first layer of Nascent Soul Formation.
At that point, he could then switch to “Jade Purity Scripture” and ponder the method of Ascendancy.
But during the 6,800 years of immortal cult legend, only one person has managed to form an Elemental Soul through “Jade Purity Scripture” cultivation, and that person was regarded as the most dazzling figure in the history of Earth Element Star.
Although Chen Mobai was confident in himself, he decided not to challenge this difficulty after all.
He would take the “Pure Yang Scroll” route honestly, since this path has already been paved by Elder Yuan Yang. All the difficulties were a matter of Spirit Stones and resources.
For other Immortal Cultivators, simply cultivating the Pure Yang Body postnatally would consume half of their lifespan, and those who could reach the threshold of Ascendancy could be counted on one hand.
However, for Chen Mobai, he only needs to have the support of Tianhe Realm. He only needs to strive harder and earning the Spirit Stones required for cultivating Pure Yang Body wouldn’t be a problem.
With the resources of the Tianhe Realm, he could cultivate the techniques of the Immortal Path.
Maybe then, he really might have a chance to catch a glimpse of the realm of Ascendancy.
Thinking this way, Chen Mobai felt it didn’t matter whether he goes to four major Daoist Academies or not.
“I’ve made my decision!”
Qing Nu, who was getting ready to say her goodbyes and leave, suddenly heard Chen Mobai speaking solemnly. She was a bit confused at first, but she soon reacted and guessed what he meant. Her pretty face turned red instantly, and she asked hesitantly.
“What have you decided?”
“I’m going to Pure Yang Academy.”
“Ah!”
Qing Nu looked disappointed.
Chen Mobai was puzzled at her reaction. Was it because he had given up the four major Daoist Academies that she was disappointed?
“I want to ascend to become Immortal, and among the seven major Ascendancy Techniques in the Immortal path, the Pure Yang Scroll is the most suitable for me. As I’m planning to cultivate this technique, whether I go to four Daoist Academies doesn’t really matter. After all, none knows the Pure Yang Scroll better than Pure Yang Academy, and it still has the strongest atmosphere since it was established by Elder Yuan Yang himself,”
Hearing Chen Mobai’s explanation, Qing Nu’s disappointment faded away. However, she said something that made him feel slightly uncomfortable.
“Do you know that Pure Yang Scroll and the Ascendancy Technique of Dance Tool Dao Academy share the same origin!”
