However, for a normal person, generally speaking, after the age of fifty, or at most sixty, their vitality, and spirit will begin to decline.

In other words, by the age of sixty, an ordinary person’s soul will gradually weaken and begin to fade away.

So how can a soul that is already declining and fading away support a martial arts external body?

Therefore, to break through the Innate, one’s age must not exceed sixty.

Otherwise, once over sixty, although theoretically speaking, there is still a probability of breaking through the Innate.

But practically thinking about it, it’s obvious.

For those who are not even sixty years old, breaking through the Innate is exceedingly difficult.

You, someone who is over sixty, still want to break through the Innate? The probability is no different from winning the lottery.

If you are confident that you are the chosen one, then you can have a try. Just don’t cry over the result in the end.

Furthermore, a regular person’s soul strength is difficult to support a martial arts external body.

Normally speaking, to break through the Innate, you need to cultivate secret techniques that can enhance your soul, use Divine Blood Variants, and rely on the power of elixirs to strengthen your soul.

These Divine Blood Variants absorb the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth and have their unique bloodline abilities. They can more or less nourish the soul to some extent.

Therefore, consuming the Divine Blood Elixir also has the effect of enhancing one’s soul.

Or, like Lu Yuan, directly travel through dimensions, devouring another soul in his body, the soul strength instantly surged to almost twice that of others.

As long as you meet any of the two conditions mentioned above, you can achieve the soul requirements for breaking through the Innate.

Thus, taking into account the above conditions, one cannot exceed sixty years of age, have a sufficiently strong soul, and have Inner Strength purified to the extreme to break through the Innate.

How can a normal martial artist meet these conditions by relying solely on their own cultivation?

In any case, under Zhou Qing’s current conditions, even if he breaks through to be a top-notch expert in five to six years, that would be the limit in his lifetime.

Wanting to progress further,

either follow Lu Yuan’s example and use Immortal Spirit Qi to purify Inner Strength or follow the conventional method and consume a large amount of Divine Blood Elixir.

At present, the latter path seems easier.

After all, Lu Yuan now controls one province and ten prefectures, and with this Northern Expedition, he is expected to expand six more prefectures.

With the territory of sixteen prefectures, if he forcefully collects, it would just barely enough to gather one martial artist’s required Divine Blood Elixir for breaking through Innate.

However, in doing so, the territories under Lu Yuan’s control would inevitably face another turmoil.

If he doesn’t follow Li Xiong’s example and murder every martial artist in Jianghu, risking spending one to one and a half years in killing one or two hundred thousand, or even two or three hundred thousand people, he can’t expect peace.

Even after all the killing, he might have to endure two or three years, or even five or ten years of unrest.

Although the cost, relative to cultivating an Innate martial artist, might still be worth it, or even a big bargain,

Lu Yuan finds it somewhat unacceptable.

To him, the population and territories represent Qi Luck and the people’s hearts. As for local peace, it is an accelerator for gathering Qi Luck and the hearts of the people.

These two aspects are related to the progress of his Taiping Dao Book cultivation.

After experiencing the power of the Taiping Dao Book in this Northern Expedition battle, having defeated two Innates in consecutive battles, Lu Yuan has had a deep understanding.

For ordinary Innate Grandmasters, Immortal Law Dao Technique is equivalent to attacking from a higher dimension.

If used properly, a single spell could annihilate an Innate Grandmaster without any issues.

How could Lu Yuan give up such a powerful means?

For him, even enduring a slowdown in the cultivation progress of the Immortal Technique is a sin.

Therefore, relying on the massacre of the Jianghu martial artists to plunder resources to break through Innate within Changsha is practically not feasible.

And speaking frankly,

because of his origins, Lu Yuan is also considered part of the imperial system.

In Changsha, both the army and the local prefectures have many connections with the Jianghu sects and aristocratic families.

Lu Yuan’s actions against these Jianghu martial artists would essentially shake the foundation of his rule and indirectly weaken his own strength.

As a result,

even if Zhou Qing eventually breaks through to Innate,

the morale of his own subordinates would be shattered, the army would be fearful, and there would be no other reliable people. Is that really a good thing?

Therefore, from the beginning, Lu Yuan did not intend to help Zhou Qing break through Innate through the killings of the Jianghu martial artists.

What he truly wanted was for Zhou Qing to follow his own path.

Using the Immortal Spirit Qi to purify the Inner Strength, and then using the purified Inner Strength and Immortal Spirit Qi contained within it to strengthen the soul.

This is also the reason why Lu Yuan called Zhou Qing here.

He wants to help his disciple, using the Spirit Qi of Immortals, purify and refine their Inner Strength.

To achieve this, naturally, he needs his disciple to come.

With this in mind, Lu Yuan looked at Zhou Qing, and laughed, “Being able to enhance your state of mind so much within a year, your innate talent is no less than your master’s. However, to break through Innate, just unblocking the bizarre meridians is not enough.

Even if you unblock the Ren and Du Channels, it’s not enough.

The secret of Innate lies in the purity of Inner Qi and the strength of the soul, and these two points are not enough with just hard cultivation.

Other Innate Grandmasters break this shackles by consuming large amounts of Divine Blood Elixirs. But this path is doomed to be full of bloodshed and countless beheadings, and your master cannot help you with this.
