Chapter 23 The Three Great Paths, the Path of Earth and Fire
After a tender moment, Dugu Ling's beautiful cheeks were flushed as she put on her skirt.
She looked at Xu Xiao and sighed, "Senior Brother... my Ethereal Longevity Technique is based on a pure Yin body. I'm afraid that in this life, Senior Brother and I will never be able to become Daoist partners..."
Xu Xiao shook his head and smiled, "It's alright, junior sister. If it doesn't work out in this life, we can do it in the next. Being able to spend a thousand years with you is enough for me, Xu Xiao."
He knew that Dugu Ling had made extraordinary progress over the past thousand years and had now reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
This is all because the other party possesses a pure Yin constitution, a rare find even in ten thousand years.
This was also the reason why Ji Xue chose him back then.
Although this physique allows for rapid cultivation, it prevents one from forming a romantic relationship with a man. Otherwise, once the pure yin physique is broken, the cultivation speed will be greatly reduced.
Before reaching the next realm of Nascent Soul, the Refining Void Realm, Junior Sister Dugu must maintain a pure Yin body.
Dugu Ling looked at Xu Xiao with a hint of guilt in her eyes and said, "Senior brother, I have wronged you so much in this life, yet you are still willing to give me such a precious top-grade youth-preserving pill."
"Senior brother, I understand your feelings now... You've had a hard time these past thousand years."
"If you have such thoughts in the future, I won't stop you anymore, but senior brother, you need to be more discreet... don't make it public knowledge..."
Xu Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
That's exactly what he wanted to hear. His junior sister didn't object, and his master went into seclusion.
Those senior elders simply didn't have time to deal with such matters.
From now on, I can confidently send gifts to the woman of destiny.
Before leaving, Dugu Ling instructed, "Senior brother, I have already started looking for your Daoist partner. Don't worry, I will find a woman who looks similar to me to be your Daoist partner."
"In this way, my senior brother's last few decades were essentially spent with me every moment..."
After saying that, Dugu Ling took the Youth Preservation Pill and flew away from the courtyard with great excitement.
She couldn't wait to go back and try out the effects of this top-quality anti-aging pill.
Xu Xiao plopped down in a chair.
His expression gradually went blank as he watched the direction Dugu Ling had left.
A woman who looks similar to his junior sister will become his Daoist partner?
Junior sister... she seems a bit perverted.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully gifting a top-grade Youth Preservation Pill. This is your first gift to Dugu Ling, triggering a ten-thousand-fold critical hit, returning three thousand Great Dao Pills.]
【The Three Thousand Great Dao Pill: A divine pill of heaven and earth, born in accordance with the fortune of heaven and earth. Upon consumption, one will randomly comprehend one of the Great Daos of heaven and earth.】
Boom!
The system's words struck Xu Xiao like a thunderbolt.
To comprehend a fundamental principle of the universe?!
Xu Xiao stared in disbelief at the fist-sized golden divine pill that had appeared in the space storage, his eyes filled with surprise.
To comprehend the Three Thousand Great Daos—isn't that what every cultivator dreams of?!
Having cultivated for a thousand years, he naturally knew that once one's cultivation reached the Nascent Soul stage, one would begin to come into contact with the so-called Heavenly Dao.
The bottlenecks in the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement realms can only be overcome by comprehending a certain degree of the Three Thousand Great Daos.
Master Ji Xue went into seclusion to comprehend one of the three thousand Great Daos in a secret realm.
Now, a single Three Thousand Great Dao Pill has allowed him to comprehend a Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Doesn't this mean that once you reach the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement realm, there will be no more bottlenecks?!
"That was fucking awesome!"
Xu Xiao quickly closed the door and took out a fist-sized divine pill from the spatial storage.
It is surrounded by colorful clouds, as if it is surrounded by celestial energy, and is very magical.
"How come it's so big... Do I have to eat it bite by bite?"
He had just brought the Three Thousand Great Dao Pill to his lips when, as if sensing something, the divine pill transformed into a stream of seven-colored light and flew into Xu Xiao's mouth.
Then, a strange energy rose within his body.
An inexplicable power of law enveloped his entire body. At this moment, he felt as if he had ascended to a celestial realm and began to experience the wonders of the Three Thousand Great Daos.
[Congratulations, host, you have comprehended the Earth and Fire Dao of the Three Thousand Great Daos.]
Name: Xu Xiao
[Age: 1008 years old]
[Realm: Foundation Establishment Level 7]
[Special Physique: Earth Fire]
Remaining lifespan: 301 years
After a long while, the protective aura of the laws surrounding Xu Xiao disappeared.
He came to his senses and felt the Dao of Earth and Fire that he had just comprehended; his old face was now ruddy.
"It's actually the Earth Fire element!"
He was incredibly excited, for each of the three thousand Great Daos could lead directly to the Immortal Realm of Immortality.
He directly comprehended the Dao of Earth Fire!
Regarding the Way of Fire, there are many branches among the Three Thousand Great Paths.
Earth Fire is the Samadhi True Fire, one of the three fires of Heaven, Earth, and Man.
This is fire made of wood and stone, and it is also the most commonly used type of fire by ordinary people.
As for the Heavenly Fire, it is the fire of the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation, which is the key to overcoming the tribulation.
Human fire, on the other hand, is the heart fire generated within the human body, also known as karmic fire.
Raise your hand, and let your thoughts stir slightly.
The power of the Earth Fire Law appeared, and a bright, burning yellow-red flame appeared in Xu Xiao's palm.
Its extremely high temperature made the whole room sweltering.
I can't imagine what would happen to someone if such a small ball of flame were thrown at them.
Even if someone at the Nascent Soul stage were to get involved, it would be a huge problem.
"That's awesome."
Xu Xiao excitedly put away the earth fire and took out the Nanming Lihuo Sword.
The already fiery red sword body began to burn with an extremely hot flame after Xu Xiao used the Earth Fire Divine Power.
Xu Xiao swallowed hard, watching the combined power of the two.
After comprehending the Dao of Earth Fire, the power of his Nanming Li Huo Sword increased by several times out of thin air.
It's no exaggeration to say that even with his current Foundation Establishment level 7 strength, enhanced by the Nanming Fire Sword and Earth Fire, he is still at the peak of his cultivation.
In terms of attack power alone, it is already comparable to his own when he was at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage!
Even more ferocious!
"Great!"
Xu Xiao nodded in satisfaction and put away the Earth Fire and the Southern Bright Fire Sword.
He is now bursting with confidence.
Although his cultivation level is still a bit lacking, his strength has improved significantly!
Moreover, after comprehending the Dao of Earth Fire, there will be no longer any bottlenecks in the Nascent Soul and Void Refinement realms.
As long as he survives the tribulation of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, his cultivation will soar to new heights with the help of the system, allowing him to catch up with his junior sister!
"I can't wait any longer, haha."
Xu Xiao sat cross-legged on the futon and smiled with satisfaction.
......
Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past two months, Jin Liuxiang used 30 Foundation Establishment Pills and received 60 Golden Elixir Pills in return, thus advancing to the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.
Xu Xiao, having been fed a deluge of resources, successfully advanced to the first level of Core Formation.
I wish I could use the sword-riding technique to fly on a sword, chasing the clouds and the sun.
