"Then how are the realms of us martial artists differentiated from the realms of cultivators? For example, what realms does the True Energy Realm correspond to? "
Wu Ming had accumulated a lot of questions. How could he let go of Feng Han, who seemed to have some experience?
Feng Han frowned. "Martial arts and Taoist techniques are two different things. Why do they have to correspond to realms?"
Wu Ming was depressed. "Is there no common ranking of realms?"
"Of course not!" Feng Han's tone was cold. "The real ranking is strength … When two Grandmasters fight, the one who survives is naturally stronger than the one who dies! Which of the famous experts didn't fight their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? "
Wu Ming nodded. "I understand. The real strength is the reasonable use of the right time, the right place, and the right people. There is no difference in strength, but there is a difference in strength!"
Feng Han nodded. He felt that Xu Que was worth teaching.
"This is my obsession …"
But he didn't know that Wu Ming was smiling bitterly in his heart. "Dazhou is a real world! It's not a game … There's no need for equality! There's no need for balance between magic and physics … If you have high aptitude, good talent, and strong capital, you can naturally choose a stronger path. There's a gap from the beginning! And the gap between you and an ordinary person will only grow bigger and bigger, not smaller! "
"And there's no such thing as the same realm between different paths. Whether I'm strong or not, I'll only know after fighting!"
"If that's the case … My profession of 'Martial Artist' is a bit too common. It'll definitely take more effort to catch up with those geniuses, and it'll take twice the effort for half the result. Anyway, with the Main Deity Temple in hand, should I consider changing my profession?"
Although the previous dandy was not talented and could only walk the path of martial arts cultivation, the current Wu Ming had the support of the Main Deity Temple. As long as he had enough merit, he would not lack basic Taoist techniques, even witchcraft, and Gu techniques. He might be able to walk the path that was most suitable for him.
Poor Feng Han. Initially, when he saw Wu Ming, he thought that he had met a good student.
What he didn't know was that Wu Ming was already considering jumping out of the fire pit of being a meat shield warrior and joining the embrace of another faction.
If it knew, it would have smashed its claws down.
…
After a morning of practice, Wu Ming's appetite was greatly improved. At noon, he ate three big bowls of fragrant millet rice, half a chicken, a bowl of soft and delicious Braised Pork with Soy Sauce, and some vegetable dishes. After that, he nibbled on the fruit and leisurely went to find Wu Qing.
"The cost of this meal is probably enough for an ordinary family to live for half a month …"
As Wu Ming walked, he was still thinking in his heart, My current appetite is already two or three times that of an ordinary burly man, and I can't eat less meat for every meal. How can an ordinary family afford it? No wonder there's a saying among the people, 'The poor are scholars, the rich are martial artists, and the cultivation of Dharma destroys the family'. Looks like the cost of these three things will increase accordingly! "
"I heard from Feng Han that you've actually broken through to the True Qi realm. Very good!"
Wu Ming entered Wu Qing's room. Only when he smelled the elegant scent of rosin did he feel that something was off.
However, Wu Qing did not feel anything at all.
Right now, there was only a pot of water before her, as well as pine nuts and other fresh fruits. Clearly, her cultivation was profound. She had even begun to abstain from eating, which made Wu Ming's heart shiver.
"Since you've already reached the fifth layer of the Fleshly Body Tier, the Turtle Breathing Technique is no longer suitable for you. This is the follow-up, the Spirit Turtle Qi Nourishing Art! It's enough for you to reach the Extreme Change realm. Take a look first. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Feng Han for guidance! "
Wu Qing sighed gloomily. "I've already been out for three days. I have to return to the academy!"
"The Spirit Turtle Qi Nourishing Art?"
The ancient book seemed to still have a lingering fragrance on it, which made Wu Ming's heart skip a beat. He forced himself to calm down and asked, "I can see that Feng Han is a talent. Can I win him over with this technique?"
"Of course. This person's background is clean, but he has no foundation! If you can win him over, it'll be a good thing! However, techniques cannot be passed down easily. You must remember this! "
Wu Qing nodded nonchalantly.
Wu Ming's face was solemn. He knew that there were nine tiers of the Fleshly Body Tier in this world: Calm Mind, Flesh and Skin, Tendon and Bone, Inner Strong, True Qi, Innate, Physical Invulnerability, Inner Invulnerability, and Extreme Change!
The first four tiers were all about understanding one's nature, training one's skin, flesh, tendon, bone, and internal organs.
As for True Qi, Innate, and Extreme Change, they were all about the changes in True Qi.
One Turtle Breathing Technique and one Spirit Turtle Qi Nourishing Art was enough for him to reach the pinnacle of the ninth tier! Wu Qing had paid a huge price to get her hands on them. If they were placed in a small family, it would be enough to be passed down like a family heirloom. If an ordinary person mastered it, it would be enough to change their fate.
Even though Feng Han's Qi Channeling Art had already been set and could not be changed easily, it could be passed down to his descendants. It might even be an opportunity for his family to prosper!
Of course, it was precisely because of this that Wu Ming was not stupid enough to give it to her directly.
On the one hand, he did not deserve it. On the other hand, if he gave such a great reward now, what would he do in the future?
"Don't worry, sister. I know!"
Wu Ming replied with a smile.
For some reason, Wu Qing looked at her brother, who knew when to advance and when to retreat, and who seemed to have grown up all of a sudden, and for some reason, a hint of disappointment appeared on her face. She suddenly took out a black and unremarkable ring and put it on Wu Ming's finger.
"This is … an artifact?!"
Wu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly as he exclaimed in astonishment.
He was a knowledgeable person. Even though the ring was black on the outside, the cloud patterns on its surface were extremely orderly, and the inner ring was filled with intricate inscriptions.
More importantly, after putting on the ring, the zhenqi in his dantian began to stir. How could he not know how precious it was?
"This is the Black Gold Ring, a low-tier artifact. It can injure others from afar. Lin Qi died to it back then, but it requires zhenqi to activate. That's why I didn't give it to you previously, but now, there's no problem …"
Wu Qing spoke casually, but Wu Ming's heart was filled with shock.
An artifact! Even if it was only the lowest-tier artifact, its value was still far beyond that of the Fire Ring.
"Sister … since you're giving this to me, what about you …"
Artifacts were not common goods. Wu Ming even suspected that this was the only one Wu Qing had on her.
"Don't worry. There's no one in the academy who can make things difficult for me yet!"
Wu Qing waved her hand domineeringly before saying gently, "Just accept it! Also … I've been making preparations recently to accept you into the academy. The Spirit Turtle Qi-Nourishing Art is derived from the Daoist manual, so it's compatible with nature. You mustn't let your guard down … "
"… Thank you, sister!"
Seeing the determination in Wu Qing's eyes and knowing that she was a woman of her word, Wu Ming did not turn her down. He accepted the artifact and made a mental note of it.
"I may not be the Wu Ming of the past anymore, but you've treated me with sincerity, so I'll repay you wholeheartedly. I'll definitely protect you!"
Wu Ming had always been particular about 'when a man achieves the Dao, his chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven', and 'a drop of kindness will be repaid with a spring of gratitude'.
Naturally, he could not tell Wu Qing the big secret of the main shrine. However, when he grew up in the future, he would definitely repay this girl.
After all, he had taken on the identity of her younger brother and received so many benefits for free. If he did not repay her, he would not feel at ease in his heart.
Of course, he was still young and weak now, so he would not be pretentious. He would just accept it.
…
Night fell.
Wu Ming lay on the soft couch and dismissed the servants. He rested his head on his arms, closed his eyes, and called out to the main shrine in his heart.
[Ding! Detected Gengshen 69, Samsara Traveler, requesting to be received. Permission granted. Permission granted!]
In that instant, Wu Ming felt that he was connected to a vast and mysterious space that seemed to be everywhere.
If it was an ordinary Samsara Traveler, he could only passively accept the summons of the main shrine. How could he enter and leave the main shrine as he pleased?
However, Wu Ming had his own permission and could return at any time.
"In the future, if the main shrine allows me to transmigrate with my real body, that would be my greatest trump card! At that time, although the world is big, not many people can do anything to me! "
As long as he could place his physical body in the main shrine in the real world, it would be the perfect refuge.
Unfortunately, the main shrine did not have this function yet. When a Samsara Traveler carried out a mission, his physical body in the real world would be the biggest flaw.
[Ding! Detected that a Samsara Traveler is carrying a low-level spiritual artifact. Do you want to consume 50 merit points and enter?]
"F * ck! Even I have to pay?! "
Wu Ming was a little depressed. Of course, he immediately chose no.
Although he wanted to appraise it, he had plenty of opportunities before the next Samsara mission. Merit points were precious, and he could not waste it like this.
With a flash of light, Wu Ming once again arrived in that white space. He looked up at the vast main shrine in the sky.
"Now I'm just a little depressed. Those cultivators, especially those who enter for the first time, are going to cry to death …"
Although the martial arts instructor Feng Han was biased, Wu Ming had asked around and combined with his own experience, he knew that in the world of Dazhou, Taoist priests, sorcerers, shamans, and other magic professions were all tall, rich, and handsome!
Of course, it was also because of this that these magic professions relied heavily on external objects, especially at the beginning, when they cast their Taoist foundation!
At this time, Taoist priests and sorcerers were like Confucian scholars who could not go out to travel. Every day, they would read scriptures to nourish their Qi. If they wanted to use spiritual spells, with their pitiful spiritual power, they had to rely on the Talisman or spiritual artifact!
However, the new Samsara Traveler who entered the main shrine did not have a single merit point …
"This is simply a scam …"
Wu Ming opened the exchange list and saw the item column. "The exchange prices for spiritual artifacts and all kinds of equipment are on the high side, and there are even requirements for great merit points and heavenly merit points. Is it because the main shrine is only a spiritual world, so people are not encouraged to exchange physical spiritual artifacts?"
Because of his previous life's experience, Wu Ming made a bold assumption, and he somewhat understood the main shrine.
