A journey through immortal realms begins with a phantom tale.

After reading the cultivation technique, Luo Cheng couldn't help but show a conflicted expression on his face.

"Haha," Fu Shan laughed heartily, then took out a bracelet.

"This is a storage bracelet for you. There are some other things inside as a small gift for you."

"Thank you, brother."

Fu Shan was no ordinary person; he saw through Luo Cheng's character at a glance.

In his eyes, Luo Cheng was a born cultivator with an incomparably pure Dao heart.

Luo Cheng knew perfectly well that Fu Shan had a wide circle of friends, spanning the entire universe.

Moreover, he was a master-level expert, and the Chongxuan Sect was famous for its weapon crafting, so naturally it had no shortage of treasures.

Luo Cheng took the storage bracelet and quickly learned how to use it.

Looking inside, there were a large number of immortal stones and some refining materials.

And many items he didn't recognize.

Of course, the term "unknown" only applies relative to Luocheng.

After all, he had only just entered the world of cultivation.

After seeing that Luo Cheng had learned how to use the storage bracelet, Fu Shan said:

"You can try cultivating first, and you can also handle some things on Earth."

When I leave, I will take you with me.

After saying that, a flash of golden light appeared, and Fu Shan had already disappeared.

This is what a master cultivator looks like; he acts so freely and unrestrainedly.

Luo Cheng understood what Fu Shan meant: once you leave, it will be difficult to come back.

Even if they come back, things will probably be different.

After all, time has no bearing on cultivation!

After obtaining the immortal stone and the cultivation technique, Luo Cheng returned to his rented room.

After taking a thorough bath, he began his spiritual practice.

Perhaps because of his previous enlightenment, Luo Cheng quickly entered a state of cultivation.

"Golden Core, so that's how it is. This is the Golden Core," Luo Cheng murmured to himself.

From a physics perspective, this elixir seems to be simply the effect of light.

Luo Cheng, a college graduate, has always been good at thinking and summarizing.

He understood that cultivation could not be approached with ordinary logic, reasoning, analysis, or judgment.

One must rely on the eighth consciousness to cultivate oneself.

According to Taoism, true cultivation lies in cultivating one's true nature.

There are four states of Qi: wind, panting, breath, and respiration.

Therefore, the Taoist canon states that the key to spiritual cultivation lies in regulating one's breath.

However, there is a big problem here: it is very difficult for ordinary people to reach the level of "breath".

If you can't even achieve the "breath" (a concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine), how can you talk about regulating your breath?

This is the hidden door set up in the Taoist canon.

Furthermore, the realms of Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Primordial Spirit also have their problems.

Many people believe that one must condense a golden elixir in the dantian.

But after reading the cultivation technique given by Fu Shan, Luo Cheng understood everything.

To condense a golden elixir in the dantian is essentially to form a gallstone.

Moreover, if one does not know how to move qi and blood, one can arbitrarily condense qi and blood and concentrate the mind on guarding the orifices.

There will definitely be big problems.

In short, if one does not see one's true nature, spiritual practice is just empty talk.

That's why there's the saying "cultivation begins after enlightenment." Without enlightenment, there's no point in even talking about cultivation.

Take the first hurdle, concentration, for example; it's very difficult to pass.

If you don't have enough focus, you can't even see the light.

What is light? Light is energy.

Only when your concentration reaches a certain level can you see the energy around you.

At this moment, Luo Cheng could see twinkling lights all around him.

The feeling was as if I were sitting in the universe, surrounded by countless stars.

As his cultivation progressed, Luo Cheng directly condensed a golden core, reaching the Golden Core realm.

Of course, the cultivation method given by Fu Shan did not include the Golden Core realm.

The entry level consists of two stages: illumination and consecration.

However, this clearly tells cultivators that they must see light, that is, ignite sexual light.

Only then can one step into the gate of cultivation.

The subsequent feelings of being moved and the tranquility of the soul are all realizations of a state of being.

Without sufficient understanding of the realm, it is impossible to enter the Nascent Soul stage.

Luo Cheng had already achieved enlightenment and understood his true nature, reaching a sufficient level of spiritual attainment.

Therefore, as long as you have the resources, advancing to the next level is relatively easy.

Besides the immortal stones, the storage bracelet also contained some elixirs.

It can help Luo Cheng break through his cultivation level.

The states of "heart-stirring" and "spiritual tranquility" require not only to comprehend the state but also to condense energy and transform it into a golden elixir.

However, this Golden Core Realm exists in four-dimensional spacetime.

In fact, the Golden Elixir, the Nascent Soul, and the Primordial Spirit are all manifestations of energy in four-dimensional spacetime.

Therefore, trying to condense a golden core or nascent soul within the body at will is pure nonsense.

Luo Cheng finally understood that without someone to guide him, he simply couldn't cultivate immortality.

For people in three-dimensional spacetime, cultivating immortality is like "using the false to cultivate the true, and using illusion to connect with illusion."

Soon, Luo Cheng took another step forward and entered the Nascent Soul stage.

Just as he entered the Nascent Soul stage, Fu Shan suddenly appeared and hurriedly called for a halt.

In fact, even if Fu Shan hadn't come, Luo Cheng wouldn't have broken through any further.

Because his current cultivation level is at the Nascent Soul stage, if he were to advance further...

He then lost control of the energy within him.

"You brat." Fu Shan looked at Luo Cheng, not knowing what to say for a moment.

This kid has reached the Nascent Soul stage in just half a month.

You should know that in the cultivation world, many people cultivate for hundreds of years and still cannot reach the Nascent Soul stage.

This is the power of realm. Energy is easy to cultivate, but realm is difficult to comprehend.

Luo Cheng hurriedly said, "Brother, if you hadn't come, I wouldn't have broken through to the next level."

Fu Shan couldn't help but exclaim, "To understand one's true nature, excellent, excellent, excellent!"

Fu Shan knew that with Luo Cheng's level of cultivation, his future path of cultivation would be much smoother.

Fu Shan didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Fu Shan's lineage prefers a "free-range" approach to education.

Back then, after Fu Shan's elder brother passed down the cultivation method, he went on a journey to various places.

Luo Cheng stood up and suddenly realized that he had grown taller, reaching 190 centimeters in height.

It's more than ten centimeters taller than before.

More importantly, his temperament underwent a dramatic change.

Given his current condition, it would probably be inconvenient for him to go out.

With a thought, Luo Cheng withdrew his divine sense, making himself appear no different from an ordinary person.

He pondered to himself, wondering how many years Fu Shan had been here.

He remembered that Fu Shan stayed on Blue Star for nine years before taking Li Qiang away.

In other words, even if Fu Shan had just arrived on Blue Star, he could only stay there for another nine years.

As a time traveler, Luo Cheng became an orphan, as is customary.

This relieved him of many worries.

At that moment, the name "Li Mengtian" suddenly flashed through his mind.

Luo Cheng felt that her image still lingered in his heart.

However, Luo Cheng didn't want to see Li Mengtian for the time being. He planned to raise some money first and then buy some things.

Of course, if he wanted, he could also offer a "zero-dollar purchase".

But that would take away a lot of the fun.

Cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage are extremely fast; supersonic speed is commonplace for them.

So Luo Cheng went out for a stroll and talked to some people about "ideals".

When he returned, he had more money in his account and a considerable amount of cash in his hand.

This is the benefit of cultivating immortality; before cultivating immortality, ideals can only be wishful thinking.

After cultivating immortality, ideals become achievable dreams.

Those who had discussed their ideals with Luo Cheng all strongly agreed with his ideals.

They also expressed their willingness to help him achieve his dream.

Luo Cheng couldn't help but sigh, before cultivating immortality, he felt that society was treacherous and people's hearts were unpredictable.

After cultivating immortality, I felt that the people around me became more friendly.

Next, naturally, comes the large-scale procurement.

Luo Cheng thought to himself that he must fill the storage bracelet before leaving.

After all, once I leave, I don't know when I'll be able to come back.

After the bulk purchase was completed, Luo Cheng arrived at the entrance of Li Mengtian's company.

This is a fifty-story office building.

Luo Cheng stood by the roadside, his face calm and without any emotional fluctuation.

"What am I here for?"

Just as Luo Cheng was about to leave, he saw Li Mengtian and a girl walking out of the office building side by side.

Li Mengtian spotted Luo Cheng at a glance and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

She could clearly feel that Luo Cheng had grown taller and become even more handsome.

"Even plastic surgery doesn't happen this quickly."

Keep in mind, they hadn't seen each other for only half a month.

Li Mengtian asked with a stern face, "What are you doing here?"

Luo Cheng did not answer immediately; he was filled with mixed feelings.

Is he here to show off? Or to ridicule?

He felt it was unnecessary.

He wanted to ask Li Mengtian if she still loved him.

But then I felt there was no point in asking.

Finally, Luo Cheng simply said, "Actually, there really are immortals in this world."

As soon as he said that, Li Mengtian got angry: "Can't you be more realistic and see things clearly?"

Luo Cheng did not respond, but slowly rose into the air, his feet leaving the ground.

"Does this prove anything?" At the Nascent Soul stage, he was already able to fly.

Li Mengtian's eyes widened in shock.

The people around them also showed expressions of disbelief.

In the cultivation world, there is no rule against cultivators displaying their abilities in front of mortals.

On many cultivation planets, ordinary people know of the existence of cultivators.

Many people also aspire to become cultivators.

However, the teleportation array on Earth was destroyed, and resources were exhausted, making it unsuitable for cultivation.

Therefore, the people of Earth know nothing about cultivators.

After her initial surprise, Li Mengtian asked, "You've become an immortal?"

"Becoming an immortal is still a long way off. Right now, I'm just a cultivator on the path to immortality."

"You've changed so much, is it also because of cultivating immortality?"

"Yes."

"Can I cultivate immortality?"

"Hehe." Luo Cheng chuckled softly.

Before this, Li Mengtian was very averse to cultivating immortality. Just now, she even told Luo Cheng to be more realistic and pragmatic.

Luo Cheng chuckled twice and then said, "As you can see, cultivating immortality can make one more handsome, grant immortality, and give one great power."

Upon hearing this, Li Mengtian's best friend was immediately intrigued: "I also want to cultivate immortality."

Just hearing about eternal youth and immortality is enough to make a woman's heart flutter.

Luo Cheng looked at Li Mengtian. At this moment, his heart was completely calm. In his eyes, Li Mengtian seemed to have become a stranger.

Li Mengtian noticed the change in Luo Cheng's eyes and her heart tightened, knowing that she had completely lost Luo Cheng.

"Luo Cheng, I deleted you just hoping you could wake up, not because I really wanted to break up with you."

We've been dating for three years, and I want to marry you.

As she spoke, she took out a deposit slip to show Luo Cheng, "Look, this is the money I saved, it's for our wedding, I've been saving it all this time."

Luo Cheng's heart stirred slightly.

But for him, who had already seen through the illusions of the world, Li Mengtian's acting seemed somewhat exaggerated.

Luo Cheng said, "I'll be leaving soon, and then we won't see each other again."

He came to say goodbye. Time flies in the world of cultivation, and once he leaves, it will be very difficult to meet again.

The lifespan of mortals is only a few decades, fleeting in the blink of an eye.

"Luo Cheng, you can teach me how to cultivate immortality, and then I can live forever. I can wait for you."
