After the two furtively discussed for a long time, they finally settled on a plan: to kill enemies on the battlefield of the Sea of Bitterness, and fighting the Demon Emperor would be best.
In a few months, it would be Ruo Shuiqiu's turn to patrol the Sea of Bitterness. Wan Qingyi would accompany her then, but not openly. They would go in secret, find a suitable opportunity, appear with thunder beneath their feet, and rescue the other party from dire straits, thereby maximizing their favorability.
"Right, why did you come to find me?" Wan Qingyi finally remembered the main business.
"Oh, it's like this. I've been in the Immortal Realm for almost two years, but I haven't broken through to the Taiheng Realm. I've hit a bottleneck. The Thunder Emperor Art you left behind in the Thunderwind Realm can be cultivated to the Immortal Realm, but it doesn't have the cultivation method to advance to the Taiheng Realm."
The Thunder Emperor Art was the only cultivation method in the Thunderwind Realm that could be smoothly cultivated to the Immortal Realm. Other cultivation methods could at most allow one to cultivate to the Tribulation Crossing stage. Advancing to become an immortal afterward required self-exploration, which was extraordinarily difficult. This was also why the other six families wanted to destroy the Wan family and seize their cultivation methods.
"When I left, I was only in the Taixu Realm. How could I have left a cultivation method for the Taiheng Realm for you? But I can teach you now."
Wan Qingyi sat up straight. "To break through, you must first understand the four realms of the Immortal Realm. You must be very familiar with them already..."
"Hold on, Ancestor. I don't understand at all."
"...Don't you go to the library to check when you're free? Or you can check online. This is all common knowledge. The Five Elements Hall has deliberately made this information public to help cultivators."
"I... haven't checked."
"Then what do you do when you're free?"
"I spend time with my wife, cook for her, play with her, sleep with her, and so on."
The sudden display of affection was overwhelming for Wan Qingyi.
"Alright then, I'll explain it to you now. The Taixu Realm, full name Taishang Xuzhen Realm, signifies cultivating reality by discarding falsehood and cultivating truth by discarding emptiness. In fact, only upon reaching the Taixu Realm can one be considered a true cultivator. The Taixu Realm is also the starting point of cultivation, representing that you can truly see beyond the heavens and comprehend the Great Dao. The preceding Mortal Realm was merely for building a foundation. The Taiheng Realm, full name Tai Gu Yongheng Realm, means that upon reaching this realm, one is like the eternal beings who survived from the Tai Gu period, with eternal life. Of course, this is an exaggerated statement. When Heavenly Venerate created the Taiheng Realm, he only sensed that the lifespan in the Taiheng Realm would be very long, and all the laws in the Taiheng Realm were complete, hence the name. However, this also shows the longevity of the Taiheng Realm. The Immeasurable Realm, full name Zhongsheng Wuliang Realm, means infinite sentient beings and boundless Dao methods. This realm is filled with infinite possibilities. In this realm, almost all the secrets of the laws in this universe can be explored. How much you can explore and comprehend depends entirely on your personal fortune. The comprehension in the Immeasurable Realm and the Dao methods created directly determine your future combat power ceiling and the strongest realm you can reach. It can be said that no Immeasurable Realm expert does not have their own unique divine abilities and Dao methods. Although they will use the divine abilities of other powerful beings, they use their own best. Therefore, I want to say that you can quickly pass through the Taiheng Realm, but you must diligently consolidate in the Immeasurable Realm, comprehend your own strongest supreme Dao method, and then step into the Golden Immortal Realm. You must know that every Saint Realm expert was exceptionally talented in the Immeasurable Realm, crushing all their peers. Many Golden Immortal Realm experts are no match for them. The Golden Immortal Realm, full name Da Luo Golden Immortal Realm. Da Luo should mean universe, meaning that by becoming a Da Luo Golden Immortal, one can become the master of a universe, the favored child of this universe. The laws of this universe will be extremely friendly to Golden Immortal Realm experts, so when fighting, Golden Immortal Realm experts will rarely experience depletion of their law power and cultivation power. This universe will continuously and actively provide power to Golden Immortal Realm experts. The full name of the Golden Immortal Realm is indeed Da Luo Golden Immortal, but it does not only represent the favoritism of the cosmic will. The main point of Da Luo Golden Immortal lies in the character 'Luo'. 'Luo' means to establish or create. Establishing Dao means the origin of all Dao methods, but not the end of Dao methods. It can be said that every Da Luo Golden Immortal can create a school, a distinct cultivation school; this is the origin. However, current Golden Immortals can barely be called Da Luo Golden Immortals, but they cannot be called Luo Tian Golden Immortals. The Saints in the Immortal Realm now are Luo Tian Golden Immortals at the Golden Immortal Realm. It can be said that Luo Tian Golden Immortals are the threshold for becoming a Saint; without becoming Luo Tian, one cannot become a Saint. And what is most important for becoming a Saint is the supreme Dao method. Only by creating a supreme Dao method, which is celebrated by heaven and earth, can one be considered a Luo Tian Golden Immortal, and thus have a chance to become a Saint. Luo Tian Golden Immortals possess the immortal and indestructible Golden Immortal body. They can be reborn from a drop of blood, and even if their soul is shattered into pieces, as long as one piece remains, they can be reborn. This is something Da Luo Golden Immortals cannot achieve. It can be said that the most powerful in the early stage of the Immortal Realm is the Hao Tian Battle Immortal, which you have already achieved. And the most powerful at the peak of the Immortal Realm is the Luo Tian Golden Immortal. Every Luo Tian Golden Immortal can crush all Golden Immortal Realm experts of the same realm, making them the strongest beings below Saints. Therefore, Luo Tian Golden Immortals at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm are also called Half-Saints. At this stage, cultivators have comprehended part of the Saint Dao and have one foot across the threshold."
"I understand. King Huofeng is such a Half-Saint expert, isn't he? The Hao Tian Battle Body and the supreme Dao method are all stepping stones to becoming a Saint, and one must start preparing for them from the Immortal Realm."
"Yes. In cultivation, there is no such thing as taking one step and looking one step ahead. You must take one step and look a hundred steps ahead to have a very small chance of success. Look at the countless immortals in the Immortal Realm, but how many Saints are there? Each has their own title and glorious battle achievements."
"Oh, I understand." Wan Lei nodded, then shook his head. "So how can I break through to the Taiheng Realm?"
"Go to the Tower of Creation to comprehend. You are on the hundredth floor of the Tower of Creation, where the rules are most complete. You are already at the peak of the Taixu Realm, just needing the final push. Cultivation methods are not that important. You will have to forge your own path in the Immeasurable Realm anyway, so why not start now? If you can advance your supreme Dao method further, you can directly break through to the Taiheng Realm."
"I understand. Thank you, Master."
"Hmm, leave if there's nothing else. Go into seclusion and comprehend properly. Don't keep coming to me and disturbing my date with your Mistress."
"Then, Master, please be gentle. This Thunder Peak of ours cannot withstand your antics."
"Scram! Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Wan Lei was kicked out, scrambling away.
