Arriving in the Realm of Longevity, Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill!

This is an isolated island located in the vast sea.

Over ninety percent of the island is covered by primeval jungle, with ancient trees reaching the sky, blocking out the sun. Ferocious birds and beasts fly and roar, a scene straight out of a barbaric age.

At the seaside, surging waves relentlessly crash against the shore, splashing up sprays ofwave. A gust of damp, salty sea breeze sweeps across the beach, rustling the verdant coconut leaves on the coconut trees.

"Roar!"

A tremendous roar echoes from the depths of the island, the sound piercing through clouds and splitting rocks, deafeningly loud. It sounds as if an incomparably powerful primeval beast is bellowing, the sound waves spreading through the forest, startling flocks of birds into flight.

"Ugh..."

Awakening from his unconsciousness, Bai He opened his eyes to find himself lying on a stretch of scorching golden sand, before him a vast expanse of azure sea, seagulls circling and soaring above the water.

He didn't know how long he had been lying there. Under the blazing sun, Bai He felt only dryness in his mouth and soreness in his muscles and bones, his entire body burning with pain.

Barely managing to prop himself up, Bai He didn't even have time to look around when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"You're awake?"

Bai He turned his head to see Xiao Chen walking slowly from the jungle not far from the beach, one hand carrying a package wrapped in broad, verdant leaves, the other using a tough vine of unknown origin to carry four massive beast legs on his shoulder.

From the fur patterns on the beast legs, it could vaguely be seen that they likely came from a feline animal like a tiger.

However, the base of each beast leg was fully half the thickness of an ordinary person's waist, indicating that they definitely did not come from an ordinary beast.

Xiao Chen walked to a pile of verdant coconuts, then tossed the leaf-wrapped package in his left hand and the four beast legs he was dragging with his right hand onto the ground.

The verdant leaf package fell to the ground, revealing the contents within, which were tropical fruits like mangoes, lychees, and pineapples.

But these fruits were all exceptionally large and plump, far exceeding the same species that Bai He had ever seen, looking extremely fresh and delicious.

Xiao Chen picked up a verdant coconut from the ground, cracked it open, and then tossed it to Bai He.

"Quench your thirst first!"

Bai He caught the coconut that was thrown to him. Because it had already been cracked open, he easily poked a hole in the cracked area and began to drink heartily.

Large gulps of clear and sweet coconut juice flowed down Bai He's throat, moisturizing his originally burning throat, and the fatigue in his body seemed to vanish in an instant.

Exhaling deeply, Bai He wiped the remaining water stains from the corner of his mouth and threw the empty coconut shell in his hand to the side.

"Thank you, Brother Xiao!"

Looking at Xiao Chen, who was sitting cross-legged under a coconut tree not far away, closing his eyes to rest, Bai He cupped his fist in thanks.

"Hmm? Still calling me Brother Xiao?"

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, looked at Bai He, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

Suddenly regaining his senses, looking at the black-clothed youth sitting cross-legged before him, Bai He seemed to have thought of something, and a look of joy couldn't help but appear on his face. He quickly cupped his fist and bowed to Xiao Chen, saying, "Thank you, Master!"

"Yes, good disciple!"

Xiao Chen nodded with satisfaction.

"The situation is unclear right now, and I, as your master, am not some pedantic person who insists on having you perform the three kowtows and nine bows like those sects in the martial world, or even offer a tea for acknowledging the master. I don't like these formalities. ''

''Just go and roast the four beast legs that I just hunted to replace them. After you eat, I will teach you martial arts, so that you can have some self-protection ability, otherwise this island is still too dangerous for you!"

Looking at the endless sea before him, Xiao Chen sighed.

"Yes, Master!"

Bai He lowered his head, both touched and excited.

Because the island's climate was hot and dry, Bai He easily found a lot of dry firewood.

In the shade of a tall coconut grove, Bai He set up the firewood, started a fire, and placed the beast leg on it. Before long, it was cooked.

However, due to the lack of salt, although the beast leg looked crispy and golden, it was still a bit bland, which was a bit of a pity.

But this didn't matter to the two of them.

After eating, Bai He quickly extinguished the fire. The reason for this was twofold: first, he was worried that the smoke would attract some ferocious beasts, and second, they didn't plan to spend the night on the beach.

Xiao Chen sat quietly on the dry sand, leaning against a thick coconut tree, watching Bai He work.

When Bai He finished cleaning up, Xiao Chen slowly turned his head and said leisurely, "Are you done cleaning up? If you're done, I'm going to officially start teaching you martial arts!"

"I'm done, Master!"

Bai He replied respectfully.

"Then let's begin!"

Xiao Chen stood up from the ground, slowly walked to Bai He, pointed to the primeval jungle behind them, and said to Bai He in a deep voice.

"This is a desolate island in the vast sea. Countless fierce birds, beasts, and even primordial species live on the island. Even I can barely protect myself, let alone protect you."

"So, I am now passing on the Mystic Skill to you. You need to practice more, increase your strength as soon as possible, and improve your ability to protect yourself!"

"Yes, I understand, Master!"

Bai He bowed and replied respectfully.

Xiao Chen nodded, turned around, walked a few steps slowly, and looked up at the blue and bright sky.

"Since I'm going to teach you my cultivation method, you must first know its origin. My cultivation method comes from a mysterious stone carving in the Yellow River."

"On both sides of the Yellow River, there has always been an ancient legend that when Da Yu controlled the floods, a divine tablet descended from the heavens and was Eternally Suppressed in the Yellow River to ensure that the Yellow River floods would not recur."

"My home is in a small village by the Yellow River. When I was seven years old, the Yellow River suddenly encountered a severe drought, and a section of the water area in front of my village was almost dry. In the dry area, a huge stone tablet appeared, with four ancient characters engraved on it: Eternally Suppress the Yellow River!"

"After cleaning the stone tablet, many carvings appeared on the back of the stone tablet. It was a mysterious and complex engraved picture, which looked profound and mysterious."

"Because all the villagers who came at that time didn't recognize it, they all regarded it as a heavenly book and worshiped it. I silently memorized it."

"But after I started to come into contact with martial arts, I finally understood that it was actually a Qi refining diagram."

"Although I don't know its name, after I mastered it, I felt that it was not inferior to those legendary divine manuals, but the only pity is that it is incomplete."

As he spoke, Xiao Chen shook his head with regret.

"But for you now, it is enough until you cultivate True Qi. I will now demonstrate it to you!"

After speaking, Xiao Chen began to demonstrate in front of Bai He.

"I call this heaven-sent Qi refining method the Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill!"

"All martial arts under heaven, though different paths, lead to the same destination! All cultivation methods begin with refining essence. Refining essence transforms into Qi, and refining Qi produces True Qi. Achieving this can be considered entering the ranks, worthy of being called a master in the martial world!"

"To cultivate True Qi, one must first refine essence. Refine essence to transform into Qi, refine Qi to transform into spirit, refine spirit to return to emptiness, and refine emptiness to merge with the Dao – it's all the same principle!"

"Refining essence can also be described as strengthening the body, that is, strengthening the body's tendons, bones, blood, muscles, and internal organs. When these five treasures are complete, True Qi will naturally arise."

"Ordinary exercise can only train the muscles and bones; it cannot cultivate True Qi. Only through martial arts cultivation methods can all parts of the body be fully taken care of."

"Martial arts cultivation methods are divided into external and internal parts, namely, form training and breathing. The two respectively train the tendons, bones, muscles, blood, and internal organs."

"What I am demonstrating now is the Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill martial arts cultivation method. If you cultivate True Qi, you will practice according to the cultivation method I am teaching you now, then carefully remember the operating trajectory of True Qi in your body. In the future, you can directly operate True Qi, but now you must remember my posture and breathing rhythm at the same time!"

Xiao Chen demonstrated while explaining his posture and breathing rhythm to Bai He.

However, although Bai He watched intently from the side, messages kept popping up in his mind, making him feel a little guilty.

"Detected that the protagonist of the Realm of Longevity world, Xiao Chen, is teaching the host the cultivation method: Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill!"

"System starts recording..."

"Recording in progress..."

"1%, 2%, 3%...100%."

"Ding! Recording complete!"

Along with the "Ding!" sound, streams of information began to flow into Bai He's mind, eventually converging into a complete cultivation method. Then, a transparent golden panel suddenly popped out of Bai He's mind.

[Host: Bai He]

[Bloodline: Human Race]

[Realm: Zero Order (Unranked)]

[Divine Power: None]

[Cultivation Method: Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill (Incomplete)]

[Source Energy: 90]

Feeling the cultivation method in his mind as if he had practiced it countless times, Bai He looked at the sky speechlessly.

"Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill... Could it be that I learned it just like that?!"
