Ye Ping opened his eyes.
He rubbed his forehead.
He looked a little depressed.
The Mystical Ability of telepathy was simply the nemesis of men. However, Ye Ping felt that it was not his fault at all. It was mainly because she was too tempting.
Sitting cross-legged in front of Xiao Muxue, Ye Ping dared not let his imagination run wild anymore.
"Ye Ping, you have to listen carefully to what I'm going to say next."
Xiao Muxue looked at Ye Ping and instructed him seriously.
"Please guide me, Senior Sister."
Hearing her guidance, Ye Ping immediately perked up.
"Ye Ping, you should know that there are seven major realms of immortal cultivation, right?"
Xiao Muxue said.
"Yes, Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Essence Soul, Tribulation Transcendence, and Mahayana."
Ye Ping understood the division of realms, and through the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion of Jin Nation, Ye Ping roughly knew how powerful each realm was. Of course, the books in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion described the first few realms in great detail.
As for the realms after that, there wasn't much detailed description. It was almost all mentioned in passing. What was inconceivable and what was unparalleled?
"The seven realms of immortal cultivation were actually collectively known as the three major realms in ancient times, the Shangqing realm, the Yuqing realm, and the Taiqing realm. Do you know why?"
Xiao Muxue introduced the story of the seven realms.
"I don't know."
Ye Ping was a little surprised. He really didn't know about that, and there was no record of it in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion either.
"The three major realms in ancient times were the names used in ancient times. During that era, spiritual energy was abundant, so cultivation was extremely fast. Hence, there were three realms, and each realm was further divided into ten grades."
"This realm is very vague, and it's also very strange about the path to Immortal Ascension. It can't be formed into a system, so it's extremely troublesome."
"However, later on, a peerless existence took an unprecedented path, created his own mental cultivation method, and redivided the realms. Hence, there are seven major realms."
"This peerless existence divided the Shangqing realm into the Qi Refinement realm, Foundation Establishment realm, and Golden Core realm, while the Yuqing realm was divided into the Nascent Soul realm and the Essence Soul realm. Finally, the Taiqing realm was divided into the Tribulation Transcendence and Mahayana."
Xiao Muxue narrated the story seriously, and Ye Ping listened attentively.
"Therefore, the Qi Refinement Realm, the Foundation Building Realm, and the Golden Elixir Realm are the most basic realms. Therefore, the difference between the three realms isn't too big."
"A genius Qi Refinement cultivator can defeat an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator."
"And a peerless Foundation Establishment cultivator can defeat an ordinary Golden Core cultivator."
"But even a monstrous genius would find it hard to defeat the most ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators."
"Because this involves the difference in major realms."
"Little Junior Brother, in this world, all cultivators are divided into different ranks. There are ordinary cultivators, and there are genius cultivators."
"You must treat them differently. Sometimes, realms don't represent everything. However, if there's a huge difference in realms, you must not act recklessly."
Xiao Muxue explained the realm in great detail.
He was mainly worried that Ye Ping would think that he was strong and act rashly. After all, the higher the realm of cultivators, the more terrifying they would be.
Ye Ping nodded. At the same time, he couldn't help but think that Xiao Muxue was right.
Although he was an early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he felt that he could challenge and even defeat his Senior Brother in the Golden Core Realm.
He could even put up a fight against a late-stage Golden Core cultivator.
However, it was very difficult for him to fight against a genius Golden Core Cultivator like Han Mo. He was almost chased and beaten.
In particular, the division of realms.
Han Mo was a genius, and in fact, he was close to being a peerless genius. However, when faced with the Nascent Soul realm Great Purgatory Resentful Demon, he was suppressed like a dead dog.
He didn't even have the slightest ability to resist.
That was the division of realms. No matter how weak a Nascent Soul realm cultivator was, a Golden Core realm cultivator could not compare to him.
It was because the difference between the two was too great.
It was like giving you a tael of silver and letting you earn ten taels of silver in a month. It was not difficult.
However, giving you 10 million taels of silver and letting you earn 100 million taels of silver in a month was difficult.
In essence, it was also ten times, but the meaning was completely different.
It was the same for realms. There was not much difference between the Qi Refinement realm and the Foundation Establishment realm because these two realms were for laying the foundation.
There was already an obvious gap between the Foundation Establishment realm and the Golden Core realm, but the gap could still be made up for by relying on inherited techniques and supreme Mystical Abilities.
However, the Golden Core realm and the Nascent Soul realm were completely different.
Nascent Soul realm powerhouses could be called ancestors, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they could overthrow a nation.
There were many Golden Core realm powerhouses in the entire Jin Nation, but Nascent Soul realm powerhouses were rare.
There were even fewer Nascent Soul realm powerhouses.
"Eldest Senior Sister, I understand."
Ye Ping nodded solemnly.
Seeing Ye Ping's enlightened expression, Xiao Muxue also nodded in satisfaction.
'This kid is worth teaching. '
Sometimes, when teaching someone, one did not necessarily care about their aptitude. It was enough as long as they could understand.
"By the way, I heard from Ye Ping that you went to the Jin Nation Academy?"
Since Ye Ping had already understood the division of realms, Xiao Muxue did not continue to talk about it in detail. After all, there were many things that one had to see with their own eyes to understand.
"Yes."
Ye Ping nodded. Ye Ping was not proud of the Jin Nation Academy at all. Instead, he wanted to return to the sect to listen to the teachings of his Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters.
It was a hundred times better than in the Jin Nation Academy.
"Yes, it's not bad. Ye Ping, you have to remember that the Jin Nation Academy is just your starting point. Since you've gone to the Jin Nation Academy, you should know more."
"Your goal is not just the Jin Nation Academy. The Ten Nations, the Great Xia Dynasty, and the entire world are your starting point. A true powerhouse is not only about strength, but also about vision. Do you understand?"
Xiao Muxue continued to teach.
"Understood."
Ye Ping nodded heavily.
At this moment, Xiao Muxue stopped looking serious and continued to speak with a smile in her eyes.
"Since we're done talking about serious matters, it's time to talk about other things. Ye Ping, did you meet any girls during this trip?"
Xiao Muxue asked with a smile.
Ye Ping was speechless.
'Here we go again. '
Ye Ping was a little depressed.'Why is Eldest Senior Sister being so serious all of a sudden? '
"No."
Although he was reluctant to answer, Ye Ping still answered honestly.
"No? That shouldn't be the case. To be honest, you're so handsome and have such a good aura. Not only are you literate, but you're also extremely strong. Logically speaking, shouldn't there be hundreds of women surrounding you when you go down the mountain? "
"Ye Ping, I'm asking you seriously, you can't answer ambiguously. Have you been enlightened?"
At this point, Xiao Muxue was extremely serious, and her eyes were full of anticipation and curiosity.
'Enlightened? '
'Enlightened? '
'Eldest Senior Sister, what are you talking about? ' 'I don't understand at all. '
"Senior Sister, I don't understand what you mean."
Ye Ping shook his head and refused to answer this question.
"Tsk tsk, Ye Ping, do you think you can hide it from me? Hurry up and tell me the truth. Otherwise, don't blame me for testing you personally. "
Xiao Muxue took out a gourd from her lapel and then poured a mouthful of wine into her mouth. She stared at Ye Ping and seemed to be telling him that if he didn't tell the truth, she would do it herself.
'Test me personally? '
Ye Ping was a little confused. He didn't know what Su Muxue meant by that.'What kind of test is that? '
"Eldest Senior Sister, no, I've been clean and pure. How would I dare to mess around?"
Ye Ping cried and answered honestly.
"Ah, what a pity."
Xiao Muxue could tell that Ye Ping's words were sincere, but she really felt sorry for him.
He was so handsome, and he had both strength and looks. Yet, he was still single.
"Tell me then, why did you bring a woman here for no reason? I heard from your Junior Sister that the woman you brought is a stunning beauty. "
Xiao Muxue was full of curiosity.
"Oh, she's just an ordinary fellow Daoist, an ordinary fellow Daoist."
Ye Ping knew who Su Muxue was talking about. It was Xia Qingmo, but he couldn't reveal her identity.
"Ordinary fellow Daoist? Let me ask you a question then, do you think I'm prettier or she's prettier? "
Xiao Muxue's eyes were full of curiosity as she looked at Ye Ping and asked a fatal question.
All of a sudden, Ye Ping fell into deep thought.
To be honest, women definitely didn't like to hear that they each had their own merits.
However, if he had to say who was prettier, Ye Ping felt that it was against his will.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping couldn't help but look at Xiao Muxue.
She was slender and had an exquisite figure, a beautiful face, and an unparalleled aura. At times, she was like a fairy who was otherworldly, but at other times, she was like a peerless beauty who made one's heart burn with desire.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping answered.
"Eldest Senior Sister is naturally prettier."
Ye Ping said sincerely.
"Hah, not bad, I didn't dote on you for nothing. Come, have a drink."
Hearing Ye Ping's praise, Xiao Muxue smiled even more and directly picked up the gourd bottle in her hand and handed it to Ye Ping.
"The Sect Leader said that we can't drink."
Ye Ping shook his head and refused. Firstly, the Sect Leader did say that they couldn't drink, and secondly, Xiao Muxue had drunk it before. Wouldn't that be indirect?
"Don't listen to that old guy, let me drink it. This wine is very precious. It can warm up your body and strengthen your physique."
Xiao Muxue picked up the gourd and placed it in Ye Ping's mouth. She then poured a large mouthful of it into Ye Ping's mouth.
For some reason, there was a hint of sweetness when the strong wine entered his throat.
Soon, it turned into a blazing flame that burned all over his body, causing his Qi and blood to boil like boundless spiritual energy.
In an instant, Ye Ping operated the Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures and refined all the spiritual energy, turning it into essence energy that stabilized his realm. There was even a slight improvement.
He had only taken a sip of the wine and he had already improved a little. If he drank an entire gourd, wouldn't he break through?
"Don't be greedy."
Soon, Xiao Muxue retrieved the wine gourd. It was not an ordinary wine, and she let Ye Ping take a sip not to help him break through but to stabilize his realm.
She could tell at a glance that Ye Ping's realm had yet to be completely stabilized, and that mouthful of wine could help Ye Ping stabilize his realm. In that case, he could save a few months of hard cultivation and meditation.
However, he couldn't drink too much of it. Firstly, it would be harmful to his body, and secondly, she didn't have much left.
"Gu gu gu gu."
After retrieving the gourd, Xiao Muxue also took a big gulp, not caring that Ye Ping had just drunk it.
"Okay, Little Junior Brother, hurry up and go back to find your little lover. Remember, don't pass on the cultivation method that I've taught you to others."
"Besides, you've now cultivated to the second chapter and have surpassed the foundation. Sometimes, you have to think more about it. Don't just follow the cultivation method. See if you can take a different path, or rather, a path that's most suitable for you, understand?"
Xiao Muxue hid the wine gourd back and immediately sent Ye Ping away. However, before leaving, she still gave him all sorts of instructions.
Ye Ping, who was slightly tipsy, nodded. The wine was indeed strong, and even though he was a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator, he couldn't handle it.
Ye Ping left, and when he walked, he was a little wobbly.
On the other hand, Xiao Muxue, who was behind him, stared at Ye Ping and couldn't help but mutter something in her heart.
"I wonder if this Little Junior Brother is willing to inherit that position. If he is, it'll save me a lot of trouble."
She muttered before smacking her lips and disappearing on the spot.
Two hours passed.
Ye Ping had already refined all the essence energy in the mouthful of wine in his room.
At this moment, his cultivation level had also completely stabilized at the early-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.
After feeling refreshed, Ye Ping also began to think about what Su Muxue said.
The first chapter of the supreme cultivation method that he cultivated was the Qi Refinement chapter, which required him to recast 36 times.
Now that he had reached the second stage, the Foundation Establishment chapter, the focus was on 'stabilization' like normal cultivation.
It was a solid foundation.
However, with Su Muxue's reminder, Ye Ping suddenly understood that he could not cultivate according to his own will.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping was a little interested. He tried to cultivate, and indeed, he found that he could cultivate according to his will.
He could not cultivate by inhaling and exhaling spiritual energy step by step.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping couldn't help but have many ideas in his mind.
The Qi Refinement realm was to guide the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body, and then refine the impurities before integrating them into the body for cultivation.
On the other hand, the Foundation Establishment realm was to open up the dantian, stabilize the realm, and then change the quality of the Dharmic powers.
There were three levels of Dharmic powers.
'Can I get a few more levels? '
'For example, the Foundation Establishment realm has the quality of the Golden Core realm's Dharmic powers? '
'In that case, wouldn't it be equivalent to having the combat power of a Golden Core realm cultivator? If that's really the case, would it be easier for me to encounter Golden Core realm cultivators in the future? '
'At least I won't have to run away when I encounter them. '
All of a sudden, Ye Ping had more and more ideas.
Two full hours passed.
Ye Ping already had a general idea.
He would first cultivate to the Major Perfection of the Foundation Establishment realm, and then continuously change the quality of the Dharmic powers to see if he could break through the upper limit and obtain Golden Core Dharmic powers in the Foundation Establishment realm.
Just as Ye Ping was filled with joy …
All of a sudden, a voice sounded.
"Exalted Immortal, are you there?"
There was a knock on the door, and a two-meter-tall figure appeared in front of Ye Ping.
Without looking, he knew that it was the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.
"Come in."
Ye Ping put away the joy on his face. Ye Ping had a certain prejudice against the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon.
He was a despicable, despicable, and cunning person. If not for the Band-tightening Curse that could suppress him, he would have long caused trouble.
Creak!
The door was pushed open.
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon walked into the room with a solemn expression and then carefully closed the door.
He walked towards Ye Ping, feeling a little agitated. At the same time, he looked at Ye Ping solemnly.
"Exalted Immortal, I discovered something that has something to do with you, but I don't know if I should say it or not."
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon sat in front of Ye Ping, and his words made him curious.
"Go ahead."
Ye Ping was a little curious as he didn't understand what the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon had discovered.
'Could it be that he discovered a secret that I didn't? '
It was very likely. After all, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was a Nascent Soul realm powerhouse and he would definitely be able to discover some details that Ye Ping couldn't.
"Exalted Immortal, I discovered a shocking secret. What I say later will definitely subvert all of your current cognition. You must not make it public or get agitated."
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was even more mysterious, repeatedly emphasizing that Ye Ping should not get agitated.
That made Ye Ping even more curious.
"What exactly is it? Tell me."
Ye Ping's eyes were full of curiosity.
"Exalted Immortal, I don't mean anything else. This matter can definitely affect your future, but I have a small request. Can you agree to it?"
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon smiled sheepishly.
"What request?"
Ye Ping frowned slightly.
"It's a small request, just remove the golden hoop on my head. Of course, I can guarantee that this secret will definitely be worth it."
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon pointed at the golden hoop on his head.
"Do you think you're qualified to negotiate with me?"
Ye Ping said with a frown.
"Exalted Immortal, I know what you mean, but this secret is of great importance. If you don't agree to it, I'd rather self-destruct."
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon was very determined.
He felt that his information would definitely be useful to Ye Ping, and it would definitely not be a loss in exchange for the golden hoop on his head.
If Ye Ping did not agree, he would rather not say it. Anyway, Ye Ping would be the one suffering.
After hearing his words, Ye Ping was really curious.
The fact that the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said that meant that he had clearly discovered some incredible secret.
"Tell me first, if it's really useful, I can remove your golden hoop."
Ye Ping thought about it and gave an answer.
"No, Exalted Immortal, just treat me as a villain. You have to promise me first that as long as the secret I tell you is worth this golden hoop, you have to help me remove it. You have to swear."
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon said seriously. He needed Ye Ping to give him an exact answer and he had to swear.
After hesitating for a moment.
Ye Ping thought about it, gritted his teeth, and nodded.
"Okay, as long as the secret you tell me is really useful, I can remove the golden hoop on your head."
Ye Ping said.
After all, there were Eldest Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters in the sect. No matter how sinister and cunning this guy was, he couldn't possibly cause any trouble.
"Okay, Exalted Immortal, listen to me."
Hearing that Ye Ping had agreed, the Great Purgatory Resentful Demon immediately got excited.
He took a deep breath, then lowered his voice and said seriously.
"Exalted Immortal, after my observation, I discovered that your Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, including the Sect Leader, are all … good-for-nothings!"
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon's voice was very soft, but his expression was extremely firm.
After he said that …
Ye Ping couldn't help but be stunned.
'That's it? '
'Shocking secret? '
Ye Ping was slightly stunned.
The Great Purgatory Resentful Demon got even more excited.
"Not only are they all good-for-nothings, but according to my careful observation, they are all good-for-nothings, especially your Second Senior Brother. Calling him a good-for-nothing is actually an insult to the word 'good-for-nothing'."
"Exalted Immortal, are you shocked?"
"Exalted Immortal, say something."
"Exalted Immortal, don't be too agitated."
"Exalted Immortal? Exalted Immortal? "
"Ah!!!!"
"Exalted Immortal, why are you chanting the incantation?"
