Golden Core Repaired
And today, his Golden Core has been fully restored!
Yuan Jinsheng was quite agitated.
He is currently cultivating the "Peach Blossom Spring Myriad Void Instruction," which is also the choice of many disciples of Azure Cloud Peak.
In reality, for cultivators like Yuan Jinsheng, it is extremely difficult to switch to other cultivation methods after they have already achieved a certain level of cultivation. Some cultivation methods even require the cultivator to completely abandon their original cultivation method.
But this is clearly almost impossible for cultivators with high levels of cultivation.
It's not just because it would be a waste to squander the cultivation accumulated over many years; another factor that must be considered is lifespan.
For cultivators at the Golden Core or above, most of them have spent hundreds of years cultivating to this level. If they suddenly lose their cultivation, although their lifespan will not immediately regress to the level of an ordinary mortal, they have after all undergone years of spiritual nourishment.
However, it certainly cannot be compared to the normal lifespan when one possesses cultivation.
Therefore, the limitation of lifespan alone makes many people reluctant to change their practice.
Even for those cultivation methods that don't require abandoning one's original cultivation level, changing them is not easy.
We all have to start from scratch.
This is still acceptable for cultivators, because with their original cultivation level as a foundation, even if they start cultivating a completely new cultivation method from scratch, the speed will not be as slow as the first time, but it is all relative.
Because the cultivation methods are different, the bottlenecks encountered during cultivation are likely to be different as well. Breaking through a bottleneck is not something that can be guaranteed to be successful 100%. Therefore, changing cultivation methods is more like a gamble with no clear answer.
Therefore, many established sects or Lineage will try their best to find higher-grade and better cultivation techniques for their disciples with good aptitude and talent, so as to avoid the trouble of changing cultivation techniques in the future.
Yuan Jinsheng hadn't thought too much about joining the Lingxian Sect with his son Shen Yingzi, after all, his Golden Core was so damaged that even the spiritual healers of the Azure Lotus Sect said there was basically no hope of repair, which meant he wouldn't make any further progress in cultivation.
After seeing so many advanced cultivation techniques, he decided to try them out, even though he had no other choice. Before starting, he asked Elder Liao, who was in charge of the Cultivation Hall and was now his master, whether he needed to abandon his original cultivation level to practice these techniques.
Liao Pantu's answer to him was that it was completely unnecessary.
Moreover, after learning about his situation Liao Pantu examined the condition of his Golden Core core and told him that as long as he focused on cultivating their sect's new cultivation method, this level of damage to the Golden Core could be completely restored.
Perhaps, because of the high grade of the cultivation technique, his Golden Core will also be greatly improved.
However, Yuan Jinsheng has not yet cultivated to the point where he can advance his Golden Core.
In just a few months, his cultivation speed has been remarkably fast, and he has now broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm stage of the "Peach Blossom Spring Myriad Void Instruction".
Of course, this is because the Lingxian Sect is now rich in Spiritual Qi and Yuan Jinsheng himself has the foundation of Golden Core cultivator.
Other Azure Cloud Peak disciples who were cultivating for the first time naturally did not have this speed. Most of them cultivated to the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining, with only a few with extremely high talent reaching the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining.
After examining his own condition, he let out a long, relieved sigh.
Unexpectedly, her decision to follow her son to the Lingxian Sect because of the events surrounding the Execution Stone turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Thinking of his son, he reached out and used the Lock Ring to contact Shen Yingzi.
Yesterday during the day, Shen Yingzi told him that she was preparing to break through to the Qi Refinement Seventh Layer and asked the Cultivation Hall for leave this morning.
Yuan Jinsheng calculated the time and felt it was about time.
As expected, the call connected with Shen Yingzi, and Yuan Jinsheng heard his son's voice coming from the Lock Ring.
"Father?"
Judging from his spirited voice, Yuan Jinsheng knew he had most likely succeeded, but he still asked anyway:
"Yingzi, have you successfully broken through?"
"As expected of Father, I reached the Qi Refinement Seventh Layer an hour ago and am currently consolidating my cultivation," Shen Yingzi replied obediently.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Jinsheng was overjoyed, nodding repeatedly and laughing:
"Good, good. Then you should consolidate your cultivation. I won't bother you anymore. We'll have dinner together tonight."
Yuan Jinsheng hung up the phone, feeling quite pleased with himself.
Back then, he worried all day about his son not being able to cultivate. The thought that his son would only have a few decades to live and that he would have to watch his son go through birth, aging, sickness and death before his eyes made his heart bitter.
This almost became his biggest worry.
But there was nothing he could do about it. No matter how many times he took his son to test it, the conclusion was always that his Spirit Root was impure and of low quality, making cultivation impossible.
Who would have thought that there were cultivation methods in this world that didn't require Spirit Root and only required comprehension!
It turns out that his son had a very high aptitude for cultivation!
Although they are not as advanced as Bai Zhu and Xuanyuan Haoyue, who are at the ninth and Qi Refining Eighth Layer of Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement respectively, they are still considered very outstanding among the more than one hundred disciples of Azure Cloud Peak!
Furthermore, like Bai Zhu, Shen Yingzi cultivates the "Original Essence Heart Sutra".
When initially choosing his cultivation method, Yuan Jinsheng also consulted the "Original Essence Heart Sutra".
Later, when the disciples of Azure Cloud Peak were cultivating, they had many exchanges and all agreed that the "Original Essence Heart Sutra" was the most difficult to learn among these cultivation methods.
According to disciples who have diligently practiced this mental cultivation method for some time, if one truly grasps its essence, subsequent cultivation will experience an indescribable sense of smooth and effortless flow.
Nevertheless, none of the Azure Cloud Peak disciples who practiced other mental cultivation methods switched to the "Original Essence Heart Sutra," because the mental cultivation methods they were currently practicing were the most suitable for them at that moment.
The elders who gave the lectures said that for them right now, regardless of the grade of the cultivation method, the most important thing is to choose a cultivation method that suits them at present. The cultivation methods in the sect can be changed at any time, and it is not too late to change cultivation methods if they gain some insights into other cultivation methods in the future.
Moreover, even if the cultivation techniques in a sect are not of a high grade, that is still relative.
Any cultivation manual from the Lingxian Sect would be considered a rare and exquisite treasure by any cultivator outside the sect!
Yuan Jinsheng was filled with emotion.
Unexpectedly, there is such a powerful sect as the Lingxian Sect in their Mortal Realm.
Look at all the items in their sect now, including the standard equipment issued to each of their new disciples. Whether it's the sect uniform or this Lock Ring that can store items and communicate in real time, they are all extremely valuable.
There's also a peach wood sword that's very suitable for cultivators at the Qi Refining Foundation Establishment. Moreover, according to the elders at the Artifact Refining Hall, this peach wood sword can be upgraded, so it can still be used even if one's cultivation level increases.
