Chapter 29

"Have you come back to life yet?" Chu He broke the silence.

"Awesome, Brother Chu, as long as we work hard in the future, we can enter the True Realm and become one of the few in the sect," Gu Han came back to his senses and handed over the jade slip, speaking excitedly. After spending a considerable amount of time with Chu He, he had even picked up some of his mannerisms.

"Be low-key. What you saw must be kept secret; you can't tell anyone. Otherwise, you won't even know how you die," Chu He touched the jade slip and said seriously.

The information inside the jade slip had already disappeared after the two of them had seen it.

However, cultivators above the Fourth Layer of the Qi Refinement Realm could remember things at a glance. The information within the jade slip was imprinted in their minds, and there was no need to keep the jade slip to preserve it. Possessing valuable items could bring disaster, a principle even children understood. Chu He warned him solemnly based on this.

The cultivation method of the True Realm was extremely precious in any of the five lands, and many cultivators were willing to risk their lives to obtain it.

Gu Han, of course, knew this and nodded vigorously.

"This is the opportunity? It feels like a dream," Chu He sighed.

He didn't know what the background of the young lady in blue was, but she could casually give away a cultivation method that allowed one to glimpse the True Realm.

Qing Ling, the founder of the sect, was a genius with extraordinary talent, possessing the resources of the Qing Ling Mountain sect. The fact that he had remained at the True Realm for hundreds of years without breaking through indicated how difficult it was to advance to higher realms. Not to mention experiencing the lightning tribulation to become a Yang Immortal.

Because of his loud recitation of poetry, he had attracted a high-level expert, and then received an opportunity that would change his future path. This opportunity even saved his cultivation career, which would otherwise have been fraught with danger.

It really felt like an unrealistic dream!

In secret, Chu He had already pinched himself several times. The bloody reality told him: this was real.

Not long after, Gu Han returned with a happy skip, eager to go into a short seclusion to digest the valuable information.

Chu He, however, remained in the small pool, his mind working harder than ever before.

According to the jade slip, his current situation was still manageable. However, after breaking through to the Sixth Layer, the fire attribute in his spiritual body would gradually manifest, and during cultivation, it would absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and gradually strengthen, eventually converting into a significant amount of fire spiritual essence.

Water and fire are mutually destructive. Although the fire spiritual essence could not suppress the water spiritual essence, it would greatly affect his cultivation progress. Even if he could advance, the conflict between the two types of spiritual essence would become increasingly intense, eventually leading to a spiritual breakdown.

To solve this problem, he needed to ensure that the water and fire spiritual essences did not interfere with each other, or to have a single attribute spiritual body.

The solution provided by the young lady in blue was to complete the fire attribute, transforming Chu He's spiritual body into a true water-fire spiritual body, and then to practice the [Two Instruments True Method].

The Two Instruments True Method is also a cultivation method that can lead to the True Realm. According to this method, one can derive both water and fire spiritual essences, which can circulate and be applied in an orderly manner within the body without mutual destruction. When cultivated to the extreme, the two spiritual essences can transform from yin to yang and from yang to yin, blending and transforming seamlessly.

Cultivating two different spiritual essences simultaneously would definitely take more time and effort than a regular method. However, having water and fire spiritual essences would undoubtedly make one much stronger in combat.

However, Chu He was not currently interested in studying the Two Instruments True Method. His primary goal was to break through to the Sixth Layer of the Qi Refinement Realm, activate the fire attribute in his spiritual body, and gather the materials needed to enhance his half-fire spiritual body.

Seeing the list of materials needed to enhance the fire spiritual body, Chu He's head began to ache.

There were nineteen types of herbs in total, and he only recognized one: Qing Ling Grass, but it required the seventh grade.

Qing Ling Grass is an eighth-grade herb, and generally, artificially cultivated ones can only reach this grade. Only those growing in special places, with unique conditions, can break through to the seventh grade.

Seventh-grade Qing Ling Grass, with its versatile properties, is always in high demand in the market, often having a price but no supply. However, this was not the biggest problem; the other few fifth-grade fire attribute herbs were even more troublesome.

Fifth-grade herbs are far more precious than seventh-grade herbs, usually only affordable by True Realm cultivators. Even先天境 (Xiantian Realm) experts buy them sparingly. As a small cultivator at the Qi Refinement Realm, he had to gather several of these, and in significant quantities, which was truly overwhelming.

"Spirit Stones!" He clutched his head and groaned in pain.

"No more wasting time!" He jumped up, used true essence to dry the moisture on his body, and quickly put on the clothes hanging nearby.

"Ah? No more wasting!" Suddenly, he ran to the heating device, pried off the two spirit stones, and put them in his storage bag.

After nourishing the spirit field, he took out the Qian Ji Jade and began to search for tasks. To change his life, he really needed to stay focused and push his potential to the limit.

On the eastern side of the Spirit Peak, there was a cliff with a large rock extending several feet beyond the edge. Wu Hai sat at the end, holding a green fishing rod.

On this day, the clouds were thick and dense, and from a few feet away, Luo Wu and the other two could barely see Wu Hai.

Fishing in the cloud sea, seemingly ethereal and majestic, Wu Hai had a purpose.

Whenever the clouds were thick, black cloud fish would appear to play and absorb the cloud energy.

Black cloud fish are second-grade water attribute spiritual creatures, named for their fish-like shape, with a pale ink color, about two fingers wide, and generally found in rock layers with water veins.

Black cloud fish are excellent spiritual food materials, with a delicious taste and rich in spiritual energy. Because they hide deep in the rock layers and move very quickly, they are quite difficult to catch.

The best method is to use the tail of a first-grade fire lizard as bait, which greatly increases the chances of success. Wu Hai was doing just that.

However, his luck seemed to be bad today, and he had been sitting there for nearly an hour without any results.

"Damn it!" Wu Hai, feeling frustrated, snapped the fishing rod in half and threw it away.

"Brother, there's no need to be upset. Let me tell you something that will cheer you up," Luo Wu stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Oh? Is it about your failure to break through to the Seventh Layer of the Qi Refinement Realm again?" Wu Hai pinched his nose and said in a strange voice.

"Uh?!" Luo Wu's face stiffened, but he quickly returned to a smile and began to explain in detail.

If Chu He were here and heard Luo Wu's words, he would surely be furious and start shooting spells at these scoundrels.

Luo Wu was not talking about anything else but the plot against Chu He.

"Ha ha! Two Green Plagues?! Awesome! That stinky kid will either die or become crippled this time," Wu Hai clapped his hands in delight, laughing loudly, releasing his previous frustration.

Of course, Luo Wu and Zhao Youlu could not be idle and joined in the laughter.
