Then, Ling Xiaozui closed the door and turned together with Dugu Chou. Four pairs of eyes stared unblinkingly at Yun Yang. Their gazes were strange, like a wolf eyeing a beauty.
Yun Yang was shocked. "What are you all doing? What's with that look?" He quickly looked at himself.
Ling Xiaozui smiled and said, "Young brother, you've improved a lot this time around! I see that even your temperament has changed a little. Your state of mind is more complete and flawless. It looks like you've come across something great. Congratulations! "
Dugu Chou guffawed as well, surprise flashing through his eyes.
It was obvious that both of them had been suppressing this question along the way.
Others might not be able to tell, but who were Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou? Yun Yang's cultivation base had improved like a meteoric rise. No matter how hard he tried to hide it, how could the two of them not notice it?
Yun Yang smiled as well, pondering how he should speak and how he should phrase his words.
"Young brother, you must have something to ask since you've followed us all the way. Is it something important?" asked Ling Xiaozui.
"Yes, indeed," Yun Yang admitted honestly.
Dugu Chou smiled as well. "You haven't spoken a word along the way, but your cultivation base has improved tremendously. You must have experienced some mystical encounter, but you didn't tell your confidante about it right away. It's obvious that you have something important troubling you. Or perhaps … it's related to your confidante as well? "
Yun Yang was impressed. "Senior Dugu, you have a sharp eye indeed."
"Is it about cultivation base?" Ling Xiaozui asked with a faint smile.
"Yes."
"The last time I came, I saw that there was something wrong with the girl's cultivation base. Firstly, it was unbelievable, and secondly, it was unimaginable. Now that you've revealed it to me …"
Ling Xiaozui said, "Ask directly about the information you want to know. If even the two of us can't answer the cultivation questions of this world, I'm afraid others won't be able to either."
What he said was the truth. He wasn't being arrogant at all.
Yun Yang mused and sorted out his thoughts before saying, "Actually, this junior's suspicion … it's nothing much to be said. It's just that … it's probably the specific division of cultivation realms in this world."
Yun Yang paused before continuing, "For ordinary cultivators, reaching the pinnacle of the peak realm is already the pinnacle. However, this realm is only the entry-level for high-level cultivators. Ascending to the pinnacle of the heaven realm, there's also the Dao realm. Initially, this junior had never touched upon or even imagined such a profound level. Now, however, due to fate, this junior has not only climbed to the pinnacle of the ninth heaven of Dao realm, I've even surpassed the pinnacle and reached the pinnacle. However, the pinnacle of Dao realm is already the limit of Tianxuan Continent's cultivators. There are no higher levels, even in the legends. "
"Regarding this, I've thought about my past experiences, especially the legends. Those legendary super experts obviously had cultivation far beyond this. For example, the Seventeenth Young Master of the Abyss and the others … They're definitely not people who can be summed up by the cultivation of the ninth level of the Dao Realm. "
"I've mentioned just now that my cultivation base has successfully broken through the ninth heaven of Dao realm and entered a new realm. However, this junior has no idea what kind of realm this is. Perhaps, I should say, what's the path of cultivation ahead of me? "
Yun Yang said respectfully, "Please enlighten me, seniors."
Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui could not help chuckling when they heard Yun Yang's words. Nostalgia flashed across their eyes as if they were reminiscing about their younger days.
Yun Yang's current confusion was the same one they had encountered back then.
Meeting Yun Yang's gaze once more, they could not help feeling envious.
Back then, the same dilemma had troubled both of them for many, many years.
Yun Yang, on the other hand, had just broken through and now, he had two people who could enlighten him waiting for him.
It was as if everything had been arranged and everything was going according to plan!
They would be lying to themselves if they said they were not envious of this providence and fate!
I'm really too lucky!
"Let me speak then." Ling Xiaozui looked at Dugu Chou. Dugu Chou gestured for Yun Yang to speak. Therefore, Dugu Chou did not hesitate to speak.
"Wait, there's someone else who needs to listen as well …" Yun Yang stopped him quickly.
He dashed out like a wisp of smoke, dragging Ji Lingxi along with him.
Ji Lingxi was cultivating outside and was caught off guard when Yun Yang grabbed her arm like a little chick. She had yet to snap out of it as she spat angrily, "You …"
Just as she was about to teach him a lesson, she saw Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou looking at her with an odd smile. She could not help blushing, not knowing where to place her hand that had been raised.
"Why don't you quickly sit down and listen to the two seniors talk about cultivation levels? Haven't you always been thinking about the problem of higher cultivation levels?"
Yun Yang did not stand on ceremony and pointed at the chairs to assign them.
Ever since he had broken through, Yun Yang felt unprecedentedly confident. He had regained his "your brother entrusted you to me" attitude.
Hearing the tone that she had not heard for a long time, Ji Lingxi's breath was stuck in her chest and could not be released. She sat down sulkily and rolled her eyes, but she perked up her ears obediently.
Honestly, the issue of a higher level of cultivation was what troubled her the most now.
Now that everyone was present, Ling Xiaozui began to speak.
"Cultivation begins with the dantian, controlling the Qi of heaven and earth, traveling through the nine orifices and thirteen meridians of the human body and assimilating it into the body. I believe all of you don't know about this foundation, but this is the foundation of all cultivators. I won't elaborate further."
"All cultivators in Tianxuan Continent come into contact with mystical Qi the moment they enter the sect. The origin of mystical Qi is something a sage once said, 'The door of Dao is a mystery beyond a mystery.' Therefore, the Qi of heaven and earth in this world is referred to as mystical Qi. "
Ling Xiaozui's words unraveled a mystery in Yun Yang's heart.
"All cultivators think of themselves as superior, their abilities incomparable to those of ordinary people. With this as the starting point, cultivators label the cultivation methods and realms they cultivate as exceptionally superior. Who knows how many years ago, they called them the peak realm, the heaven realm, and the Dao realm. As the saying goes, to cross mountains after mountains, to cross a heaven, to see another heaven; to step onto the path of Dao, to see the nine heavens – this is how it goes. "
Yun Yang nodded, expressing his understanding. Ling Xiaozui's words were concise, but they had explained the cultivation path of Tianxuan Continent's cultivators.
Ji Lingxi could not help but ponder as well, recalling her own cultivation path step by step. She murmured, "I see, I see."
"However, the path of cultivation is long and endless. How can there only be these three realms? The so-called peak of this world is only the peak of Tianxuan Continent's cultivators, not the peak of cultivation!"
