Shen Chongming had just recently reached the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer and already had a faint sign of innate spiritual qi.
One must admit, this kind of luck is indeed quite enviable.
"By the way, there’s sothing else," Shen Chongming mused and spoke, "Grandfather is also at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer now, but he has no spiritual root. Breaking through to the Fetal Breathing Realm might be sowhat difficult."
Upon hearing this, Wei Qiuling frowned imdiately.
Having no spiritual root makes embarking on the path of cultivation anything but easy.
The majority of those without spiritual roots, despite having great perseverance, can only progress slowly on the path of the Immortal Dao and commonly stop at the seventh or eighth layer of Qi Cultivation.
Reaching the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer is already rare, and breaking through to Fetal Breathing is even more challenging.
For cultivators with spiritual roots, breaking through Fetal Breathing requires only finding a match for their innate spiritual qi, forming an immortal foundation, and forging an immortal embryo to achieve a breakthrough.
However, for cultivators without spiritual roots, they must find five types of the sa quality of innate spiritual qi, maintaining inner five elents balance, to have hope for a breakthrough.
Innate spiritual qi isn’t just like stones on the roadside that you can pick five at random.
In the cultivation realm, even lower grade Five Elents Innate Spiritual Qi is extrely expensive for each type.
Gathering five types requires not only extraordinary luck but also spending spirit crystals that even ordinary immortal sects cannot afford.
Spending such a huge cost to cultivate a non-spiritual root cultivator is, in itself, a paradox.
Therefore, until now, there have been no reports in Danzhou of any non-spiritual root cultivator achieving Fetal Breathing.
"There’s no need to rush this, take it slow."
Wei Qiuling sighed and spoke.
"If you are going to get the innate spiritual qi that matches you, you must be careful."
"Innate spiritual qi is a heaven and earth spiritual object, generally guarded by powerful demon beasts. If it’s really impossible, let your third uncle accompany you."
Shen Chongming nodded, not revealing that the item was actually within the Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm, which Third Uncle Shen Wen’an couldn’t enter at all.
...
Second floor of Black Water Pavilion.
The little girl Shen Li hugged a thick ancient beast skin book as she ca up the stairs.
Shen Wen’an heard the noise and slowly opened his eyes.
Upon seeing her, a rare smile appeared on his face.
Shen Li ca forward prettily and spoke softly, "Third Uncle, can you accompany Li’Er to find sothing?"
Shen Wen’an nodded slightly, "What does Li’Er want to find?"
Shen Li approached him, spreading open the ancient beast skin book, pointing to several insects depicted there, "To find so bugs."
Shen Wen’an glanced at the ancient beast skin book, where centipedes, scorpions, toads, and various poisonous insects were drawn, and frowned involuntarily.
He didn’t quite understand why such a lively and lovely little girl would like these things.
"Third Uncle, is it okay?"
Shen Li raised her head, with a twinkle of pleading in her eyes.
Seeing this, Shen Wen’an patted her small head and said, "Okay."
He slowly stood up, held Shen Li in his arms, and with a wave of his hand, left Black Water Pavilion by Sword Flight.
In the vast sky above Hidden Dragon Mountain, Shen Li was thrilled by the rapidly retreating clouds and the undulating forest beneath.
"Third Uncle, when can I fly by myself?"
The little girl turned her head and yelled.
Shen Wen’an smiled faintly, "Once you’ve started Qi Cultivation, you can perform Wind Manipulation Flight."
"Can I fly this fast?"
Shen Wen’an smiled without answering.
Not to ntion Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators, even those in the sa realm of Immortal Dao Fetal Breathing cannot match the speed of a Sword Cultivator’s Sword Flight.
However, now wasn’t the ti to dampen the girl’s enthusiasm.
"Cultivate well, and one day you might fly faster than Third Uncle."
Talking like this, the uncle and niece duo soon arrived at the Poisonous Miasma Forest deep in Hidden Dragon Mountain.
Before the Flying Sword had even landed, Shen Li seed to feel sothing, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened in surprise, looking towards the miasma-covered forest below.
"Let’s go down."
Shen Wen’an moved his mind, and the Flying Sword beneath him plunged directly towards the forest below.
When the two landed, the Centipede Leader in the Poisonous Miasma Forest had already erged, quietly waiting outside the miasma.
"Two-legged beast, the little two-legged beast beside you is quite strange..."
Before Shen Wen’an could speak, the Centipede Leader curiously tilted its large head and looked at Shen Li.
Seeing it seed to want to co closer, a Sword Aura appeared before Shen Wen’an.
"If you scare her, I will cut off your legs one by one."
Shen Wen’an said coldly.
The massive body of the Centipede Leader paused slightly, then obediently retreated a few steps.
"Third Uncle, I’m not afraid of it."
Shen Li peeked out from behind him, waved towards the Centipede Leader, "Big fella, can you help find so bugs?"
The Centipede Leader excitedly wriggled its body, then noticing Shen Wen’an, dared not step forward, trying its best to soften its voice, ingratiatingly said, "Little one, what kind of bugs do you want?"
Shen Li imdiately opened the ancient beast skin book she was holding, preparing to show it to the Centipede Leader.
But when the Centipede Leader saw the ancient beast skin book in her hand, it suddenly felt that sothing was wrong.
It wriggled its body a few tis, retreated a few more steps, with a trace of inexplicable fear in its eyes.
Shen Wen’an noticed its movents, carefully looked at the ancient beast skin book in Shen Li’s hand, not finding anything unusual, he spoke, "Can you find these things?"
The insects on the ancient beast skin book weren’t ordinary scorpions, centipedes, and Shen Wen’an had no way but to bring her here to find the Centipede Leader.
