"So, it's that simple, we can start our ascension to immortality?"
Xiao Chongshan emerged from the Jade Void Palace with a look of doubt on his face.
The Jade Void Palace was indeed magnificent, but the awe it evoked in her was only so-so. After all, it had developed to the point of spanning multiple spaces and levels, and ordinary cultivators could no longer see the entirety of the Jade Void Palace from a holistic perspective.
It exists in multiple spaces, anchored in countless Xingkong. From different perspectives, its form of existence is different. Therefore, although cultivators know the power of the Jade Void Palace, they cannot perceive its magnificence because they are only in the midst of it.
But when it comes to things like becoming an immortal, the individual's direct experience is much more obvious.
Each of the previous cultivation stages required exhausting one's intellect and calculation abilities, and spending a great deal of time figuring out the path ahead, before reaching the pinnacle and even touching the edge of the next stage.
But frankly speaking, the difficulty of reaching the Nascent Soul Realm Li Xingkong first created Spiritual Qi.
It feels like they didn't do anything special, they just casually went into seclusion, and then becoming immortals was just around the corner.
It felt so easy, like a dream.
"That's true, but becoming an immortal requires a spiritual spark, and finding your own spiritual spark to achieve immortality is the real challenge."
The system clearly felt that Xiao Chongshan was being a bit too optimistic.
"I see..."
Xiao Chongshan thought for a moment, then grabbed the early education machine assigned to her.
"Plagiarism check slots are very valuable, why don't you let me help you..."
"Alright."
Before Li Xingkong, he saw the early education machine in Xiao Chongshan's hand light up green.
"Um?"
Li Xingkong was shocked.
"Ah?"
The system is stupid.
"No, this... this isn't right."
This makes Li Xingkong and the system's ten years of research seem like the work of idiots.
"Isn't this something anyone can do?"
A rare smile appeared on Xiao Chongshan's face.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it! So what have you become? Human Immortal, right?"
Before Li Xingkong could get excited, the system did.
Who is it? A system that has served under Yuanjun for countless years and has a deep understanding of the entire Jade Void Palace!
How come this guy got the clue on his first try when even it couldn't find it?!
"Oh, sorry, my early education machine tells me that this path leads to Dao Immortal."
Xiao Chongshan couldn't stop smiling; she almost burst out laughing.
" Dao Immortal!"
Li Xingkong and the system stared wide-eyed.
No, what about their ten years?
"What is it? Can you tell me secretly?"
The system's curiosity, piqued to an extreme, almost made it forget how impolite it was to ask others about the spiritual opportunity they were going to choose before ascending to immortality.
A flash of inspiration isn't something you can choose and then decide. Before you have it in your grasp, if more people know about it, you're very likely to have another competitor.
"Keep it a secret, hahahahaha"
Xiao Chongshan finally let out a hearty laugh. Ever since she met Li Xingkong, she felt that she was inferior to him in every way, whether it was cultivation, cultivation level, or the degree of mastery of techniques. Xiao Chongshan felt that Li Xingkong unfathomable.
But just a moment ago, she suddenly felt that Li Xingkong wasn't so amazing after all, was he?
"Tsk, is this what luck is?"
Li Xingkong shook his head helplessly. He couldn't bring himself to steal someone's spiritual energy, especially since the holder of that spiritual energy was Xiao Chongshan.
Human Immortal is someone who doesn't think about anything else and simply becomes Human Immortal.
Even if there were other paths to Dao Immortal, they belonged to others. Once Li Xingkong made up his mind, he had no intention of going back on his word.
Back in the small world, before Li Xingkong could even speak, the system had One Step Ahead of Others guessed Li Xingkong thoughts.
"The method to become an immortal, right? I've been waiting for you."
It knew perfectly well what Li Xingkong wanted.
"If you understand, hurry up and bring it up."
Without mincing words with the system, this guy had long been hoping that Li Xingkong would become an immortal; only when Li Xingkong became an immortal would it have a chance to advance further.
Upon hearing Li Xingkong's words, the system merely rolled its eyes at him before exhaling a bubble.
There were no other options, only a bubble, and even Li Xingkong could sense that this bubble contained very little information.
"This is the method to become an immortal?"
Li Xingkong a little surprised; this was far too little.
Can these few words really make him an immortal?
Li Xingkong expressed strong doubts.
"That's right. You don't think there are any special techniques for becoming an immortal, do you? What's the difference between that and the previous stages of cultivation? Whether you can become an immortal depends entirely on yourself. This method only plays a supporting role."
The system instructed Li Xingkong to crush the bubble. Li Xingkong stretched out his hand, and a golden scroll fell into his hand.
Essentials of Becoming an Immortal
There was no mysterious or cryptic name to it. When this booklet fell into Li Xingkong's hands, he felt as if he had obtained a copy of " One Hundred Thousand Whys ".
That's all?
Li Xingkong waved the booklet in his hand. It wasn't very long; it was about the thickness of an ordinary reference book.
That's all.
The system also confirmed that there really was only this one method to become an immortal.
"Then I'll have to come and see."
There was very little material; Li Xingkong quickly scanned it with his Divine Sense and got a general idea of the contents of the booklet.
"Hmm, it seems we really don't need that many."
After reading through the contents of the booklet, Li Xingkong really felt that the booklet was somewhat padded with words.
The key to becoming an immortal lies in two points.
First, find your own spiritual path to immortality, and then start trying to contact it, analyze its essence, and try to understand and recognize it from a conceptual level. Even if you don't reach the point of mastering the concept, you must understand it very thoroughly, to the point of being able to comprehend it yourself.
Of course, Li Xingkong's choice to follow the path of Human Immortal only requires understanding himself.
Do people understand themselves well enough?
The answer to this question is definitely yes.
For cultivators, what they are probably most familiar with is their own body and soul.
And isn't understanding this from a conceptual level precisely what we're doing in the process of constructing the Dharma Aspect?
Li Xingkong felt that this first point could be immediately ruled out.
The path to Human Immortal seems to be much simpler than the other two.
Secondly, it is necessary to resolve the cause and effect.
Li Xingkong hadn't considered this point at all.
Having distanced himself from the mortal world, Li Xingkong began cultivating immortality. He believed that cultivation was merely a leap in the level of life, and after the leap, the essence of life should not be any different.
This so-called resolution of cause and effect seems a bit superfluous.
Moreover, Li Xingkong couldn't fathom how it could be related to becoming an immortal.
