One Day of Qi Cultivation! Ancient Immortal Cultivation Prodigy!?

In the forest.

Everything around seemed so cold and clear.

However, the youth standing under the tree grew hot.

He felt like a furnace burning in this spot, slowly emitting scorching heat.

Chu Feng trembled as his body tensed, filled with excitement.

He no longer had to worry about how to get out of the forest, nor did he need to fret about Xiao Huohuo discovering his fake expert identity, and he certainly didn't have to concern himself with being surrounded by tigers and leopards.

With spiritual energy entering his body, all his previous worries had vanished like smoke.

What he needed to consider next was truly the matter of cultivating immortality and seeking the Dao.

Before today, these were things Chu Feng wouldn't even dare to imagine!

Of course, all of this was thanks to his clever disciple, Xiao Huohuo.

After a brief assessment, Chu Feng adjusted his mood, coughed, and resumed his usual calm demeanor before striding towards the thatched hut.

After all, no matter how happy he was, he couldn't afford to lose his image as an expert.

Inside the room, Xiao Huohuo calmed the spiritual energy within his body and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air before opening his eyes.

With a creak.

The rotten wooden door was pushed open.

Xiao Huohuo looked towards the doorway and saw Chu Feng walking in, still with that same calm expression.

Seeing his Master's figure, Xiao Huohuo couldn't help but marvel inwardly:

"Master is truly an otherworldly expert, a divine immortal."

"I've only just gained some harvest, and Master immediately sensed it."

"To avoid disturbing my first state of spirit absorption into the body, he even calculated the exact time for me to completely stabilize my aura."

"As soon as I calmed down, he immediately came to see me."

"Heaven has not treated me unfairly; I've met such a good Master!"

Unaware of what Xiao Huohuo was imagining, Chu Feng simply stared at him for a moment and nodded slightly:

"Hmm, stepping into the threshold of cultivating immortality in three days and achieving spirit absorption into the body, while not astonishingly brilliant, is still acceptable."

"You can be considered a seedling for cultivating immortality."

Hearing Chu Feng's evaluation, Xiao Huohuo's heart tightened, and he nodded fiercely:

"Master, please rest assured, Huohuo knows his talent is mediocre."

"I will definitely put in my utmost effort to cultivate diligently and will never let Master down!"

Xiao Huohuo's eyes shone brightly and spiritedly, filled with determination.

Compared to the martial dao, where he struggled to make any progress even after years of cultivation, achieving such a strong reaction and abundant harvest in the path of cultivating immortality in such a short time was already more than enough for him.

As long as he could gain something, diligent cultivation was not a torment for him at all; rather, it was a form of enjoyment!

Of course, being able to absorb qi into his body in three days and receiving the evaluation that his Master considered him a seedling for cultivating immortality, he probably wasn't too bad, right?

Xiao Huohuo paused and continued to ask:

"May I ask, what does an astonishing genius in cultivating immortality, as mentioned by Master, look like?"

"Disciple wishes to know how much of a gap there is between me and those true geniuses!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng pondered for a moment before saying:

"For true geniuses, something as basic as spirit absorption into the body."

"Takes no longer than the time it takes to burn one incense stick."

Under Xiao Huohuo's stunned gaze, Chu Feng continued:

"Those who can truly be called geniuses in cultivating immortality mostly have a natural affinity for spiritual energy, making their cultivation smooth sailing."

Chu Feng almost burst out laughing as he spoke.

All of this was something he had just made up.

What was a genius? If Xiao Huohuo, with a randomly written cultivation method, could find the path to cultivating immortality, if that wasn't genius, then there were no geniuses in the world.

However, in order to keep Xiao Huohuo in check and to solidify his identity as an otherworldly expert, Chu Feng could only fabricate this story of fake geniuses.

After all, only when a person feels inadequate, or even unworthy of what they currently possess, will they hold onto it tightly without the slightest doubt.

As expected, after hearing Chu Feng's words, Xiao Huohuo's eyes dimmed slightly.

The joy he felt from achieving a breakthrough in three days was completely diluted.

Even though he had anticipated it, it was impossible not to feel a blow.

His eyebrows drooped slightly, and he sighed inwardly, lamenting:

"I never expected that there would still be such a large gap between me and true geniuses."

"I'm still far from good enough."

"It takes the time of burning one incense stick, but I used three days. With such talent, Master must be very troubled, right?"

"If I hadn't asked, Master wouldn't have told me."

"I must cultivate diligently. Only then will I be worthy of Master's painstaking efforts."

Chu Feng didn't know what effect his words would have. Instead, he continued:

"For ordinary people, absorbing Spirit Absorption into Body more than five times will result in the birth of five Spiritual Energies within their bodies, allowing them to break through to the Qi Refining Stage."

"This is because five Spiritual Energies are the limit that a cultivator's body can normally withstand before Qi Refining."

"Normally?"

Xiao Huohuo immediately seized on the sensitive information:

"Meaning, besides this, there are better options?"

Looking at him, Chu Feng nodded:

"That's right. Five Spiritual Energies are the limit for ordinary cultivators, but that's not the limit for a genius."

"For cultivators, Spirit Absorption into Body is the foundation, the most crucial layer of a towering building."

"The thicker the foundation, the more benefits it brings to a cultivator's subsequent cultivation."

"Precisely because of this, ordinary geniuses will wait until the Seventh Spiritual Energy is born within their bodies before choosing to break through."

"As for those ancient demons, they would even compress Spiritual Energy to an extreme degree, allowing their bodies to accommodate nine Spiritual Energies and break through the limit before advancing."

"Even the time they spent accumulating nine Spiritual Energies wouldn't exceed one day."

"This is what's called 'One Day Qi Refining'!"

After listening, Xiao Huohuo stood frozen on the spot, his pupils trembling.

Ordinary people could only cultivate up to five, but geniuses could exceed the limit by two, and even those ancient demons could directly break through the limit with nine before advancing.

Moreover, reaching the Qi Refining realm in one day, what terrifying talent was this?

Xiao Huohuo looked at Chu Feng and made up his mind, gritting his teeth and saying:

"Master, as your disciple, I, Xiao Huohuo, would rather die than break through with the ordinary five Spiritual Energies."

"I will definitely accumulate at least seven Spiritual Energies and meet the standard of a genius before breaking through. That way, I won't disgrace Master."

As he spoke, he clenched his fists:

"To not disgrace Master, and for a better future, your disciple will persevere!"

Chu Feng smiled with satisfaction:

"It's enough that you have the will to become stronger."

Hearing Chu Feng's words, Xiao Huohuo's resolve strengthened.

He thought to himself with certainty:

"I must accumulate eight Spiritual Energies before breaking through."

"However, I shouldn't tell Master about this yet. Given my current talent, it still sounds like wishful thinking and might upset Master."
