In fact, no one needed to be reminded. At the moment the fragments burst out, clever individuals immediately took action to seek those fragments marked with sword strokes.

For everyone present, these sword marks were invaluable treasures, greatly beneficial to their martial arts practice.

Even powerful figures like Zhao Baiyang and the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu did not hesitate to seize them.

To them, even if they did not need to learn the swordsmanship contained within, these fragments bearing the martial arts traces of Pei Xuanjing and the old heaven’s teacher could be used to comprehend martial arts, producing gains.

So, nobody paid attention to Yu Yangzi’s words; no one was listening, each acting on their own accord to steal the fragments.

The one cannot be responsible for the many.

Moreover, Yu Yangzi understood that the existence of this practice martial arts field was envied by major forces such as True Martial Sect, Chunyang Sect, etc. These forces were itching for action but due to their identities, they dared not speak out, and could only watch helplessly.

Now that there was an opportunity, these forces would not be polite; they wanted to snatch all these fragments, leaving nothing behind.

Therefore, Yu Yangzi immediately abandoned the idea of stopping them. Meanwhile, he ordered the powerhouses of Dragon Tiger Mountain to seize the fragments with sword marks to minimize losses.

The next morning, as the sun rose, atop a peak of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Pei Xuanjing was sitting on a cloud platform, his eyes slightly closed, his breath long and leisurely, absorbing Zi Qi from the morning sun.

As he absorbed the Zi Qi, Pei Xuanjing’s mind was working fast, recalling the enlightenment he gained during the brief moment of Unity of Heaven and Man from the day before.

Having had that profound experience, he now knew what path to take and he had an approximate idea of the Spirit Realm cultivation.

As he had previously deduced, at the peak of the Mortal Realm, martial artists could enter the Spirit Realm through refining essence, refining Qi, or refining spirit.

Refining Essence involves transforming the body. A martial artist uses the forces of nature to temper and refine his body, allowing it to transform. Once the body is fully spiritualized, one naturally steps into the Spirit Realm.

If you continue to practice the Way of Essence Refinement after entering the

Spirit Realm, it should involve solidifying the body’s acupoints and constantly strengthening the body. After all acupoints in the body are solidified, the body can reach the Realm of Immortality.

The Path of Qi Refinement primarily involves solidifying True Qi. According to Pei Xuanjing’s memory and knowledge from his past life, it should involve breaking the barrier between the body and heaven and earth, allowing Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to enter the body and continuously merging and transform with one’s own True Qi into Primordial Qi. After all the True Qi in the body has been transformed into Primordial Qi, one has progressed to the Spirit Realm.

The practice thereafter should involve continuously compressing and purifying the Primordial Qi, letting one’s own Primordial Qi continuously blend with

Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, and ultimately reach a stage where one can use Primordial Qi to manipulate the forces of Heaven and Earth.

The practice of Refining Spirit, as Pei Xuanjing understands it, is to use the true intention of martial arts as a foundation, continuously strengthening one’s will, transforming the intangible will into a mysterious Divine Soul, which would then signify stepping into the Spirit Realm.

As for how to practice after advancing to the Spirit Realm along the Refining Spirit path, Pei Xuanjing did not have any clear understandings yet. He only supposed that continued strengthening of one’s Divine Soul would allow it to transform into a Primordial Spirit, as per legends.

There are three paths: Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

Each path taken to the extreme corresponds to Body Immortal, Indestructible Qi, and Immortal Soul respectively.

Pei Xuanjing even guessed that if someone indeed reached the extreme in all three paths, they might be no less than the Fairy Gods depicted in stories.

Of course, this was all speculation by Pei Xuanjing. The final results needed further exploration. It was important to remember that he was still a martial artist who had reached the peak of the Mortal Realm. He had just started body spiritual transformation and was not yet in the Spirit Realm, let alone the legendary Fairy God Realm.

However, Pei Xuanjing was not at all discouraged. After all, compared to many martial artists whose pathway was still unclear, he had already found his own path and was further able to identify the direction to work towards, which in itself was a significant fortune.

“But, if this is really the case, then there is a conflict and contradiction with the Immortal concept extrapolated from the previous information I obtained.” He thought to himself.

According to the information Pei Xuanjing had originally obtained and his own extrapolation, there were five types of immortals: Heaven, Earth, Man, God, Ghost.

Yet, if the paths of Essence, Qi, and Spirit taken to the extreme could indeed lead to Becoming Immortal, there were only three types, which was in conflict with the previous extrapolation.

Exhale!

Long after, Pei Xuanjing expelled a turbid breath, stopping his breathing exercises. He slowly opened his eyes, their depths flickering with divine light. Although many puzzles and difficulties were not yet solved, he didn’t care much.

The inheritance of cultivation was cut off, and the desire to resume the cultivation path was indeed filled with difficulties, but all of this was within his expectations.

The enlightenment and pursuit of truth were already filled with hardships and uncertainties along the way.

If Pei Xuanjing could easily comprehend the method of becoming an immortal at this stage, then the achievement of becoming a god might be too simple. This would trivialize the countless talents and accomplished figures of the past.

He was already very pleased to have found a clear path to break through to the Spirit Realm thanks to the opportunity of Unity of Heaven and Man.

What’s more, with the simulator at hand, Pei Xuanjing had countless opportunities to try and fail. As long as he kept moving forward step by step, he believed that he could definitely carve out his path to becoming an immortal..
