Book 4: Chapter 24: A Ray Of Hope
Wise Immortal didn’t answer Bai Qiuran’s question immediately and instead asked:
“Does your Sea of Qi give a feeling that it’s limitless, but you can cultivate without letting your Qi leak?”
“That’s right.”
Bai Qiuran froze for a while and replied.
“Then there is no doubt you have Heavenly Jealous Physique.”
Wise Immortal said firmly.
“So what? Is this physique very powerful?”
Bai Qiuran’s tone became more cautious when it came to foundation building.
“How do I put it…that’s complicated.”
Wise Immortal thought for a while and replied:
“In all respects, Heavenly Jealous Physique is indeed the most terrifying physique I know, not only because people born with this physique are also the most talented geniuses with Heavenly level Spiritual Root, and more importantly, their talent will continue to grow with the pa.s.sage of time and cultivation level. In the end, even the two strongest physiques in the cultivation world in the legend, the Spiritual Immortal Physique and the Heavenly Demon Physique are inferior to the fully grown Heavenly Jealous Physique.”
“So that is unrivaled?”
Bai Qiuran said in surprise.
“It is true from this aspect, but there is another reason why I say it is complicated.”
Wise Immortal quietly said:
“There’s a reason it’s called Heavenly Jealous Physique. Even Heaven was jealous of that physique. Averagely, less than one person possesses this kind of physique is born per 100,000 years. The potential that it has is basically unlimited, infinite Sea of Qi, unlimited growth of qualifications, but there is one limit: lifespan.”
The green soul fire in the skull’s eyes burned more vigorously, and Bai Qiuran felt it was looking at him.
“You should understand. Although we say that the greater the Sea of Qi capacity, the better, it is undeniable that whether it is to compress the Qi into True Qi when breaking through the Foundation Establishment stage, or form the golden core when breaking through the Golden Core stage, it is necessary to use the wall of the Sea of Qi to reversely compress and condense the energy in the body. So even if the Qi in the body of Heavenly Jealous Physique can eventually grow to be higher than the quality of the Immortal energy, but the Qi is still Qi. Infinite Sea of Qi also means there is no wall of the Sea of Qi, so Heavenly Jealous Physique can only be in the Qi Refining stage, and can only live two or three hundred years. The three-hundred-year-old G.o.d, who is full of jealousy for you, obviously won’t be merciful. When the bad guys detain your soul, no matter how good your physique is, it will be empty.”
Bai Qiuran thought of Xue Ling and his subordinates and was speechless.
“I once made a calculation. If Heavenly Jealous Physique can successfully pa.s.s 1000 years old, he must be unrivaled in the world, but… you know.”
Wise Immortal continued:
“There was also a Heavenly Jealous Physique in our time. I watched him grow up all the way, but in the end, he was still captured by the Soul Taker when he was 350 years old. When his soul was gone, all the characteristics of Heavenly Jealous Physique were disappeared.”
“So, is it impossible for me to break through the foundation building in this life?”
Bai Qiuran was very frustrated, and even had a thought of “going out and returning to his hometown to get married and retired to have children”.
But Wise Immortal immediately said:
“When did I say you can’t break through and build a foundation?”
“You know how?”
Bai Qiuran was overjoyed.
“I do not know.”
Wise Immortal immediately poured a pot of cold water on his burning hope.
Bai Qiuran squeezed his fist.
“Are you kidding me?”
“No, no.”
Wise Immortal quickly said:
“Although I don’t know how to make you break through the foundation building, I know the clue… and it is very clear. It proves that Heavenly Jealous Physique can break through the Foundation Establishment stage.”
“Tell me the story.”
Bai Qiuran put down his palm.
“Let’s put it this way…Do you know Immortal Emperor?”
The skull asked.
“I know, he also booked me a seat for the ghost emperor… why, he is also Heavenly Jealous Physique?”
Bai Qiuran asked.
“No, the Immortal Emperor is a human, but he is not Heavenly Jealous Physique.”
Wise Immortal said:
“Although there is no data record for a long time, when I still have hands and feet, I used to be in the wilderness-I am referring to the wilderness of the Dongqing Dynasty era. In there I met a ruin and after reading a few murals, I have learned a lot of secrets through the Great Wisdom.”
“What secret?”
“Everyone knows that the Immortal Emperor was the first immortal in history, and he was also the person who pa.s.sed the method of the immortal to the human race, but before the immortal, there was once a race on this land called G.o.ds.”
The skull slowly said:
“Then according to the information I learned from that mural, during the same period of Immortal Emperor, there was also a Heavenly Jealous Physique. While Emperor Xiandi taught the human cultivation method, it was he who withstood the pressure from the G.o.ds and allowed humans to have a chance to grow. And judging from the results shown on that mural, this Heavenly Jealous Physique has True Qi.”
boom!
Upon hearing this news, Bai Qiuran’s state of mind, which hadn’t been messed up for more than a thousand years, finally produced violent fluctuations.
He felt as if there was a crack in this pitch-black s.p.a.ce, and a warm light came out from the crack, shining on him.
In this world, there is still hope!
Bai Qiuran was overjoyed, but it was a pity that someone had always wanted to seize his earth fairy, and at this moment, he could only watch this scene under the restraint of the black spikes.
“How do I find him?”
After the ecstasy, Bai Qiuran quickly grabbed the skull and asked.
“You calm down first.”
Wise Immortal said:
“The first generation Heavenly Jealous Physique has disappeared since then, and we have never heard of him again. I guess he was killed in a battle with G.o.ds. But if you still want to find, you can go to the wilderness and find leftover from the ancient era of G.o.ds.”
“Let’s go! Where are the ruins?”
Bai Qiuran was trembling with excitement. He couldn’t wait to rush to the wilderness immediately, looking for clues to break through the foundation. He looked around and found that he was still in the dark s.p.a.ce, so he simply raised his palm and hit the void.
With a loud bang, s.p.a.ce was smashed into a huge s.p.a.ce crack by his palmprints, and Wise Immortal knitted his brows at this scene – if he still had eyebrows.
Seeing Bai Qiuran wanted to jump in the s.p.a.ce crack, he hurriedly said:
“Don’t! Over there is the trial ground of [a.s.sociation with the unbeloved]! Don’t demolish this mansion! It’s very useful! If you want to go out, I will teach you the teleportation method!”
Hearing his voice, Bai Qiuran finally calmed down a little bit. Seeing his appearance, Wise Immortal paused before saying:
“And you can’t go to the wilderness now. The time I encountered the relics of the G.o.ds was sheer luck. Ten thousand years of vicissitudes of life, those relics have long been buried in the ground.”
“Then where should I go now?”
Bai Qiuran asked back.
“You know the demon world, right?”
Wise Immortal said:
“You go to the Tomb of the Demon Emperor, there are clues about the G.o.ds.”
“I’ve been to the Tomb of the Demon Emperor before.”
Bai Qiuran said that he had killed the demon royal family there.
“There is no clue about the G.o.ds there.”
“Of course not. What you said was just a mausoleum for the later demon emperors. What I want you to find is the mausoleum of the first generation Demon Emperor.”
Wise Immortal said:
“The first generation Demon Emperor, like the Immortal Emperor, is also an existence that has survived from the G.o.d’s era.”
