"The essence of cultivation lies first and foremost in Qi Cultivation..."
In a serene Half-Mountain Courtyard,
Shen Changchuan sat cross-legged at the head of the group, eloquently explaining the various principles of cultivation.
Below him, seven or eight Cultivators in the Qi Introduction Early Stage, including his maternal grandfather Han Qinhu, were listening attentively.
At the sa ti, they held pens and paper, diligently taking notes and recording every word Shen Changchuan said.
This was not so feigned display of diligence.
It was because this knowledge of Immortal Cultivation was, to them, a truly precious treasure deserving of such treatnt!
This was even true for the juniors from the Minor Immortal Cultivation Clans of the other villages!
The path of Immortal Cultivation,
was not so easy to walk.
Especially for Low Tier Immortal Cultivators like them.
For Low Tier Immortal Cultivators, many of the crucial tips and tricks one needed to pay attention to during cultivation might take a lifeti of practice and exploration to discover.
Even with a Cultivation Technique to set them on the Path of Immortal Cultivation,
if they lacked the guidance of their predecessors or their Cultivation Experience to draw upon,
a minor bottleneck could trap a Cultivator for three to five years of hard work, or even a lifeti!
This was the fundantal reason why the younger generation from great clans and powerful factions were held in such high regard by the outside world.
Because the Cultivation Inheritance they possessed
was simply incomparable to what common Loose Cultivators had access to!
This was also the case for the young juniors from the other villages among the seven or eight Cultivators listening below!
Although their own clans had similar inheritances of cultivation tips,
their humble clans only produced a few Low Tier Immortal Cultivators each generation. With small populations and weak strength, the Cultivation Experience left behind by their predecessors was naturally not very profound.
Compared to the inheritance of the Tian Nan Shen Clan, the difference was like night and day.
Now that they had the opportunity to hear and understand the Shen Clan’s inheritance,
these were secret teachings and experiences that could beco a family heirloom for a Minor Immortal Cultivation Clan.
Naturally, they had to record it all diligently.
Moreover,
during this lecture,
Shen Changchuan was also incorporating a great deal of his own understanding.
And as soone who had mastered twenty to thirty different kinds of Magic at the Perfection Level,
Shen Changchuan’s understanding of Magical Power cultivation was undoubtedly a cut above that of ordinary Cultivators.
This allowed
Han Qinhu and the others, who had been stuck at a bottleneck in their cultivation, to have a sudden epiphany.
"So that’s how it is..."
The lecture and analysis lasted for half a day, and he even specifically set aside ti for a question-and-answer session.
This undoubtedly gave everyone a much deeper understanding of cultivation in the Qi Introduction Early Stage.
Right then,
the auras of Han Qinhu and Han Dayong surged.
Their auras advanced to the Qi Introduction First Layer Late Stage and the First Layer Peak Realm, respectively.
The other clan disciples from the other villages couldn’t help but cast envious glances their way.
As far as they knew, these two had just been mortals a few months ago.
In less than half a year, they had already progressed to the point where the Second Layer was within sight.
’This is the benefit of having a great tree to lean on!’
However, while their eyes were full of envy, there was no trace of jealousy.
They understood the relationship between these two and Shen Changchuan.
It was a connection one couldn’t be jealous of.
Besides,
they had also gained a great deal from this lecture.
If they went back and cultivated diligently, their own cultivation would likely improve significantly.
"Alright, that’s all for today’s lecture."
"Go back and digest what you’ve learned. After so ti, I will lecture you again on the later stages of cultivation."
Shen Changchuan said impassively.
After lecturing for half a day, he felt he had said enough.
What he had taught was already sufficient for them to cultivate to the Qi Introduction Second and Third Layer.
As the saying goes, too much is as bad as not enough.
’This is enough for now.’
Of course,
the most important reason was that
Shen Changchuan had spotted a figure behind the crowd, forcing him to end the lecture quickly.
Everyone rose to their feet and bowed towards Shen Changchuan with their hands clasped, a gesture of respect for a teacher.
Shen Changchuan paid them no mind.
His attention was fixed on the person who had suddenly appeared.
The crowd seed oblivious to this person, as if he were completely invisible to them.
Only after everyone had departed,
did Shen Changchuan finally stand up and bow with clasped hands toward the figure.
"Greetings, Senior!"
The figure who had suddenly appeared
was none other than Shen Tingchu, the senior from the Shen Family whom Shen Changchuan had t once before in the Wu Family Collection months ago!
"It seems your understanding of cultivation is quite good, kid. Even I gained so minor insights just from listening."
Shen Tingchu’s gaze swept up and down Shen Changchuan,
his expression holding a hint of surprise.
It wasn’t that he had truly gained anything from Shen Changchuan’s lecture.
As a True Cultivator at the Soul Ergence Realm, his perspective was far loftier and more expansive, allowing him to see issues with greater breadth and depth.
His understanding of the path of cultivation could not possibly be matched by a junior who hadn’t even reached the Qi Introduction Late Stage.
What truly surprised him
was that Shen Changchuan’s understanding of the Immortal Cultivation Dao was already on par with that of a Cultivator at the Qi Introduction Ninth Layer!
This kind of perspective on the path of cultivation might seem to have little to do with a Cultivator’s combat strength, and it might not appear very useful.
But in fact, that was not the case.
Because this was a form of a Cultivator’s own foundation.
To possess such a cognitive foundation while at the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Peak
was naturally sowhat surprising to him.
"Such talent is truly remarkable. If your luck is good in the future, it might not be impossible for you to advance to the Soul Ergence Realm."
Shen Tingchu’s eyes held the look of soone gazing upon a piece of raw, unpolished jade.
"You’ve done well."
For such an outstandingly talented junior,
Shen Tingchu was not stingy with his praise.
"You praise too much, Senior. This junior’s achievents today are largely thanks to the inheritance you so graciously provided."
"Senior, your Cultivation Experience has allowed this junior to gain a great deal during this ti."
There was not a hint of arrogance on Shen Changchuan’s face as he replied respectfully.
His words were not entirely flattery.
Although he had spent most of his ti over the past two or three months focused on cultivating Magic,
that didn’t an he hadn’t delved into understanding other things.
The inheritance Shen Tingchu had given him
was one of the things he had spent his spare ti comprehending during this period.
He might have disagreed with its advice that Cultivators in the Qi Introduction Realm should not spend too much ti cultivating Magic—based on his own circumstances—
but the various thods for utilizing Magical Power and the many cultivation tips within it
had still allowed him to benefit imnsely.
During this period,
the rapid improvent of his Basic Magic was, to so extent, also thanks to that inheritance.
