"Mr. Luo, could you tell me about this inheritance?" Qin Yu asked with a pleading expression.

"Yu!" Qin De shouted sharply, cutting off Qin Yu's question. Although he too desperately wanted this inheritance, Qin Yu's question had been far too eager and came across as extremely impolite.

For an inheritance like this, no matter how harsh its requirements were, how could it possibly be passed on so easily?

"Mr. Luo, my son was rude just now." Qin De personally apologized, then added, "But as you know, I, Qin, am in great need of this inheritance. I hope you can part with it. Name any conditions you wish; so long as I can fulfill them, I will never go back on my word."

Qin De's words were rather interesting. He would never break his word if he could fulfill the conditions—but if he could not, did that not mean he could break it?

However, Cao Bing did not care. Since he had gone this far, he had no intention of keeping anything hidden.

"Mr. Qin, there is no need for this." Cao Bing continued, "There is actually nothing that cannot be passed down. Please allow me to explain in detail."

"That inheritance actually used different names for the current classifications of cultivators. For example, Houtian level Martial Artists were collectively called Trainee Level, while Xiantian Martial Artists were called Warrior level. Their strength needed to reach 1,000 jin, and their speed needed to reach 75 meters in one breath. (In the Stellar Transformation World, one jin was uniformly equivalent to one kilogram in Devouring Starry Sky World, otherwise calculations would be difficult to standardize. One breath equaled three seconds.)"

"Among them, an Elementary Warrior had strength of 1,000 jin and a speed of 75 meters in one breath. An Intermediate Warrior had strength of 2,000 jin and a speed of 120 meters in one breath. An Advanced Warrior had strength of 4,000 jin and a speed of 180 meters in one breath."

Cao Bing paused slightly to catch his breath, but the others were already dumbfounded. This so-called Warrior level had exceeded everything they knew.

"How is that possible?!" An astonished cry suddenly came from afar. A refined middle-aged man in white came flying over on a sword, landing steadily beside Qin De.

"Brother Feng."

"Uncle Feng."

"Greetings, Immortal Master."

The people on Qin De's side hurriedly cupped their hands in greeting.

"Greetings, Immortal Master!" Cao Bing quickly followed suit, deeply bowing to the man. This man should be Feng Yuzi, the mid-Golden Core Stage cultivator in Qin De's residence.

"Brother Qin, Yu." Feng Yuzi nodded slightly at the two of them, then said to the others, including Cao Bing, "No need for such formality."

"Little friend, was what you said just now true?" Feng Yuzi asked with a frown.

"I would not dare deceive you all," Cao Bing replied calmly.

He truly had not lied. That was how the boundaries were classified in the Devouring Starry Sky World.

Seeing that Cao Bing did not appear to be lying, Feng Yuzi immediately fell into deep thought. After a long while, he said, "If that is truly the case, then this external cultivation method is truly incredible."

"How so, Brother Feng?" Qin De asked in confusion. He knew that Cao Bing's description had been astonishing, but he had not expected it to amaze an Immortal Master of the Golden Core Stage.

"Brother Qin, you do not know this. Based on what this little brother said, the physical body of an Advanced Warrior cultivator would already be comparable to that of a Golden Core Stage cultivator. If someone like that truly got close, even an Immortal Master would have some chance of being injured," Feng Yuzi said slowly with a soft sigh.

"What? They can injure an Immortal Master?!" Everyone was shocked. In their understanding, an Immortal Master was an Immortal Master. Even an expert at Xiantian Great Perfection would not dare claim to be able to injure one.

"Little friend, is there more to come?" Feng Yuzi asked again.

"Of course. Beyond that, there are three more realms: Warrior General level, God of War level, and Transcendent level!" Cao Bing then explained these levels as well. As for the Planetary level, he did not mention it, instead calling it the Transcendent level and saying that he only knew its name, not its specific abilities.

Even so, what Cao Bing had said today was enough to make their jaws drop.

Feng Yuzi in particular had spent his entire life studying cultivation, yet another power system had left him so stunned that he was speechless. It took him a long while to recover, though this inheritance seemed incomplete.

"I thought I already knew how vast heaven and earth were, but it turns out I was merely a frog at the bottom of a well!" Feng Yuzi sighed, his mind drifting into a daze.

"I must thank you, little friend, for revealing such a secret," Feng Yuzi said, cupping his hands.

"Why should an Immortal Master thank me?" Cao Bing hurriedly stepped aside. His strength was still too low; he could not yet accept Feng Yuzi's gratitude.

"Uncle Feng, how do these Warrior Generals and Gods of War compare to cultivators?" Qin Yu asked curiously.

"The systems are different, so it is difficult to judge if we truly compare them. I can only make a rough analysis." Feng Yuzi shook his head and seemed to think for a while before saying, "An external cultivation Martial Artist at the Warrior General level would already surpass cultivators in physical strength. It would be very difficult for a Golden Core Stage cultivator to kill him with True Essence Power alone, but spiritual artifacts, spells, formations, or treasures could still kill him.

"As for the God of War level, Golden Core Stage cultivators could only avoid them. Although God of War level Martial Artists could not fly, their speed and physical strength were simply too terrifying. Even a Low-grade Spirit Artifact Flying Sword would find it difficult to kill them. If they truly chased their opponent until his True Essence Power was exhausted, he could only let himself be slaughtered. And even if they were outmatched, a God of War level expert could still escape at tremendous speed.

"So in my view, to truly kill or defeat a God of War level expert, one would need a Nascent Soul-level expert to act, or use a Mid-grade Spirit Artifact!"

At Feng Yuzi's words, Qin Yu's eyes immediately lit up, while Zhao Yunxing's eyes also revealed an unusual gleam.

"So that was how it was." After hearing the analysis of a professional cultivator like Feng Yuzi, Cao Bing now had a general understanding of the cultivator power system. Their physical bodies were not strong; they relied entirely on True Essence Power to control various magical treasures and formations to kill.

However, it was hard to say whether Martial Artists or cultivators were superior.

"Mr. Qin, this is the subsequent cultivation method for external cultivation. Please keep it safe." As he spoke, Cao Bing took out a translated version of the Five Hearts Facing Heaven Chapter from the Gene Primal Energy Cultivation Method of the Devouring Starry Sky World.

As for higher-level versions, Cao Bing would not give them away. His relationship with Qin De and the others had not reached that point, so he had to keep something in reserve.

"Thank you, Mr. Luo!" Qin De solemnly accepted the cultivation method and said excitedly, "I will say it again: if Mr. Luo has any requests, please feel free to make them."

Cao Bing nodded, then turned his gaze toward Feng Yuzi.

"Mr. Qin, Immortal Master, I, Luo, ask for nothing else. I only ask that the Immortal Master teach me the path of cultivation." Cao Bing wore a respectful expression as he spoke solemnly and sincerely.

"The path of cultivation?" Feng Yuzi gave him a deep look. "Little friend, since you possess this inheritance, why do you still seek the path of cultivation?"

"Immortal Master, not to mention that this inheritance only reaches the God of War level, even Houtian Peak is still far beyond me. Besides, how could the methods of Martial Artists compare with the longevity of cultivation? Even God of War level experts only live a few hundred years at most. I do not ask the Immortal Master to teach me the essence of it, only that you guide me through the door."

Cao Bing pleaded.

"Very well, I will teach you. However, I have no right to pass down my sect's cultivation arts. You can only cultivate secular techniques to make breakthroughs. Are you willing?" Feng Yuzi said in a low, serious voice.

"I am willing!" Cao Bing said excitedly. Having a Golden Core Stage expert like Feng Yuzi teach him would be a hundred times better than fumbling around by himself.

"Uncle Feng, I want to listen too!" Qin Yu suddenly said.

"Good! Yu, come along too." Feng Yuzi smiled.

Cao Bing glanced at Qin Yu. As expected of Qin De's son. His treatment was far better than mine. I plotted so much just to gain an opportunity, yet Qin Yu could sit in simply by saying a word.

Of course, Cao Bing was not jealous. He still needed to use this opportunity to build a good foundation with Qin Yu.
