For Hongyun, in this Primordial World, he only knew of the existence of Saints, but was unaware of the existence of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin.
Now that he heard of this existence, a light involuntarily appeared in his eyes.
"The Heavenly Dao Saint has its advantages, and the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin has its own; both paths are very difficult to walk," Qin Yun said.
Hongyun understood this point as well, and he nodded gently.
"Even if it is difficult to walk, I still want to give it a try..." Hongyun said. His voice was very soft, but very firm.
Qin Yun looked at Hongyun and nodded slightly at his attitude.
"Hongyun, you should return now. Study that cultivation technique well, and refine those two sources of origin well. Strive to break through to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm as soon as possible," Qin Yun said.
Hongyun looked at Qin Yun, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"The Mountain God's great kindness is something I, Hongyun, will surely repay heavily in the future!" Hongyun bowed deeply to Qin Yun, his heart full of gratitude.
Qin Yun smiled and said, "Hongyun, if you go to the Purple Cloud Palace to listen to the Dao, it doesn't matter whether you sit on that cushion or not."
"If Hongjun wants to give you the Primordial Violet Qi, it doesn't matter whether you accept it or not," Qin Yun added.
"The key is that your own strength must be strong. Only if your own strength is sufficiently strong will others not easily scheme against you," Qin Yun said.
Hearing Qin Yun's words, Hongyun felt some confusion in his heart. He asked, "Mountain God, what do you mean by these words? Could it be that someone really wants to scheme against me?"
Hongyun asked himself, he was charitable and kind, had made many good connections, and had never formed a grudge with anyone; how could anyone want to scheme against him?
"As the saying goes, one must always be on guard against others. Regarding some matters, you must be careful yourself," Qin Yun said.
"The most important thing for you is still to improve your own strength," Qin Yun said.
"Mountain God, may I ask, what is the Primordial Violet Qi you mentioned?" Hongyun asked.
"The Primordial Violet Qi, once refined, can help one become a Saint," Qin Yun said.
Hearing this, Hongyun was somewhat dumbfounded.
Since it could help one become a Saint, why would Hongjun give it to him?
Could it be...
Thinking of this, Hongyun frowned, but he did not continue to dwell on it.
For now, he did not even know if what Qin Yun said was true or false...
Some things still needed to be viewed in light of the actual situation to be more certain.
"Alright, you should go back first," Qin Yun said.
"If you have time in the future, remember to come here and offer incense more often," Qin Yun added.
Hongyun did not refute this; he nodded and said, "The Mountain God's words, Hongyun will keep in mind."
"Then, Hongyun shall take his leave," Hongyun said again, bowing toward Qin Yun.
Qin Yun nodded and waved his hand. The next moment, Hongyun vanished from within the inner space.
Hongyun returned to the temple.
There were still some spirits inside the temple offering incense, but these spirits did not notice anything unusual about Hongyun, nor did they realize he had suddenly appeared.
Previously, when Hongyun had been pulled into the inner space, the spirits in the temple had not noticed him suddenly disappearing either.
It was as if such a thing had never happened at all.
Hongyun did not say anything; he looked around the temple and then departed.
Inside the inner space, Qin Yun remained seated by the pond, fishing.
The pond was quite large, the water clear, with lotus leaves standing tall and lotus flowers in bloom.
Suddenly, Qin Yun felt the fishing line sink heavily. He pulled the line, and a fish broke through the surface.
The fish was quite large and looked very plump and delicious.
Qin Yun took the fish off the hook and placed it into the creel at his side.
He had no intention of continuing to fish; he tidied up his things and stood up to leave.
Qin Yun planned to grill the fish to eat.
Since the fish had been caught, it would be a waste not to eat it.
He first cleaned the fish, then gathered firewood, started a fire, and began to grill it.
The inner space where Qin Yun resided was a prime Blessed Land. The spiritual energy here was extremely dense, and there were many Heavenly Treasures to be found.
This place was equivalent to a small world.
Qin Yun had arrived in this world ten years ago and had lived here for ten years. These past ten years could be described as very leisurely and carefree.
Living here, he had no worries about food or drink, and every day was spent in ease and comfort.
However, Qin Yun was unable to leave this inner space.
Before Qin Yun's cultivation reached the realm of a Saint, he could not leave this inner space.
Qin Yun's current cultivation level is that of a Heavenly Immortal.
In this Primordial World, a Heavenly Immortal is such a weak existence.
The cultivation realms here are divided into: Refining Essence to Qi, Refining Qi to Spirit, Refining Spirit to Void, Refining Void to Dao, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Mystic Immortal, Golden Immortal, Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint (Golden Immortal of the Origin), and Saint (Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin).
Qin Yun transmigrated here directly, body and soul intact.
In the current Primordial World, humanity has not yet been born; even Nuwa has yet to create humans.
When Qin Yun first arrived, he was just an ordinary person with zero cultivation, so he had to start from the very beginning, Refining Essence to Qi.
In the Primordial World today, even a spirit creature that has just taken human form can reach the cultivation level of an Earth Immortal.
It could be said that Earth Immortals are as common as dogs, and Heavenly Immortals are everywhere.
Qin Yun's current cultivation level is truly nothing to boast about.
Qin Yun has been in this world for ten years. He bound himself to this System and has been serving as the Mountain God in this Mountain God Temple, slowly accumulating Incense Value.
These mountain spirits and wild monsters come here to offer incense, which provides Qin Yun with Incense Value, and they also become his believers.
If their cultivation levels increase, Qin Yun's cultivation level also receives a corresponding boost.
Therefore, over these years, Qin Yun's cultivation has been slowly improving just like this.
For Qin Yun, this is a very comfortable state of affairs. He doesn't need to do anything, doesn't need to cultivate painstakingly, yet he can still increase his cultivation—it's simply too awesome!
As expected, transmigration is great! Having a cheat is great!
At this moment, the System's voice rang out in Qin Yun's mind: [Ding! Congratulations to the host, your cultivation has increased again, from the mid-stage of the Heavenly Immortal realm to the late-stage of the Heavenly Immortal realm!]
Hearing this, a satisfied smile appeared on Qin Yun's face.
The people who come here to offer incense are all Qin Yun's believers. When these people increase their cultivation, Qin Yun's cultivation also receives a corresponding boost.
Although the boost Qin Yun can siphon off isn't much, many a little makes a mickle. With so many believers, each one improving just a little bit, and Qin Yun siphoning a little bit from each, it all adds up to a considerable amount.
Most importantly, he can increase his cultivation while lying down—that is what's truly awesome!
Qin Yun sat by the campfire, quietly roasting a fish, the aroma growing stronger and stronger.
The scent was intoxicating, making one's mouth water.
Qin Yun is a Heavenly Immortal now; although he could practice inedia and not eat, it is still quite pleasant to eat something and satisfy his cravings.
