Immortality begins with inheriting the myriad arts of cultivation.

For a cultivator to form a Nascent Soul is truly a creation that defies the laws of heaven and earth.

As far as Li Ping knew, ancient cultivators did not divide themselves into many realms like cultivators today, such as Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation.

In ancient times, the cultivation realms were actually divided into only "Qi Refining" and "Spirit Refining"!

The modern concepts of "Qi Refining," "Foundation Building," and "Core Formation" were all referred to as "Qi Refining" in ancient times.

The 'Nascent Soul' and 'Transformation God' are called 'Refining God', but they are divided into 'Yin God' and 'Yang God'.

Once a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, they can separate their Nascent Soul from their body and travel thousands of miles. They also possess unique supernatural abilities such as "teleportation," making them almost entirely different levels of beings from Core Formation cultivators.

If late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators can overwhelm Core Formation cultivators with sheer numbers, then no matter how many Core Formation cultivators there are, without a counter to Yin Spirit magic weapon, they will all perish against a Nascent Soul cultivator capable of teleportation.

Of course, the nascent soul belongs to the yin spirit, and has weaknesses such as fear of yin wind, scorching sun, and inability to leave the body for a long time.

Because the breakthrough from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Core Formation Realm is such a leap, even for cultivators with Heavenly Spiritual Roots, the success rate of breaking through the Core Formation Realm and forming the Nascent Soul Realm will not exceed 20% without the assistance of a Nascent Soul Formation Spiritual Object.

Even if one truly forms a Yin Spirit Nascent Soul, one still has to endure the tribulations of Heavenly Thunder tempering the body and Heavenly Demon tempering the heart; every step is a matter of life and death.

Li Ping cultivates the "Ze Shui Yang Sheng Jue" (a martial arts technique for nourishing life through water), which grants him a 50% success rate in achieving Nascent Soul formation.

In addition, his innate divine sense is strong, and he has cultivated the "Myriad Spirits Divine Technique" to the fifth level, making his divine sense three times that of ordinary cultivators of the same level, which should also increase the success rate by 10% to 20%.

Overall, once he reaches the peak of the late Core Formation stage, his success rate in breaking through the Core and forming the Nascent Soul stage is still quite high.

However, no cultivator in this world would complain about their high success rate in forming a Nascent Soul. If he could easily obtain a Nascent Soul opportunity, that would be something Li Ping would be happy to see.

That's why he suddenly changed his mind and invited Wei and Feng to his residence.

To his surprise, after he asked about this, Wei Yiling's ears turned bright red instantly, and her eyes became evasive. It wasn't until Li Ping started to get impatient that she stammered, "Sister Shuang, I need to talk to Fellow Daoist Li about this privately. You should leave the pavilion first."

Feng Xishuang glanced at her in surprise, but in the end, she silently got up and walked to the small pond about ten feet away.

Wei Yiling waved her hand and cast a spell, enveloping her and Li Ping in a cyan soundproof barrier. She did all this undoubtedly to prevent Feng Xishuang from overhearing her conversation with Li Ping.

Seeing Wei Yiling's mysterious demeanor, Li Ping couldn't help but become curious about the opportunity she had mentioned for forming a Nascent Soul.

After Wei Yiling finished doing all this, she looked up at Li Ping and said, "Fellow Daoist Li."

As she spoke, her face flushed, as if she was embarrassed to say what she was about to say.

Li Ping gazed at her silently, waiting for her to continue.

Wei Yiling took a deep breath before speaking with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Although I only possess two spiritual roots, and my aptitude is not as good as those cultivators with different spiritual roots or heavenly spiritual roots, my cultivation speed is no less than that of those cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots. This is all because I possess a special spiritual body called the 'Spirit Gathering Body.' You should know very well what this means, Fellow Daoist Li."

"A body that gathers spiritual energy." Li Ping was taken aback upon hearing this.

He sized up Wei Yiling a few more times, then immediately read Chapter 365, "Gathering Spirit Body, True Phoenix Core: Unlock Today's Exciting Content." A strange look appeared in his eyes: "Fellow Daoist Wei, you actually possess such a spiritual body?"

"Yes." Wei Yiling nodded, her face flushed.

She wouldn't have revealed this secret if she hadn't been in a hurry to escape the control of that Nascent Soul cultivator from the Great Harmony Society and needed Li Ping's help.

In that brief moment, Li Ping's expression gradually returned to normal. He said calmly, "Then, Fellow Daoist Wei, could I examine you? It's not that I don't trust you, I just want to broaden my horizons!"

"The checkup... is fine," Wei Yiling said slowly, a hint of shyness appearing on her usually unruly face.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Ping immediately said, "Then I'll have to offend you."

He hadn't forgotten that Wei Yiling had once deceived him. Without checking, he would find it difficult to determine whether what she said was true or false.

Just then, Wei Yiling gritted her teeth and cast another spell. A light mist completely obscured Feng Xishuang's view from the outside. Only then did she slowly take off her clothes, revealing her smooth, jade-like back. On the spine of her back, there was a mysterious light blue pattern.

"Tattoos...gangsters..." The mesmerizing dialect echoed in Li Ping's mind.

He shook his head to clear the strange idea from his mind, and looked closer. Only then did he see clearly that the light blue pattern on Wei Yiling's spine was shimmering and lifelike, vaguely resembling two phoenixes circling together, with their tail feathers trailing long.

"As expected, he possesses the Spirit Gathering Body." Li Ping couldn't help but reveal a look of joy in his eyes.

Wei Yiling covered her chest with her clothes, her face flushed, and said, "Now Fellow Daoist Li should know that what I said was true."

Li Ping nodded and sat back down.

The Spirit Gathering Body can only appear on female cultivators.

As the name suggests, it is a physique that can naturally absorb spiritual energy and directly purify the absorbed spiritual energy into refined spiritual power, allowing cultivators with this physique to cultivate at a speed far exceeding that of others.

Moreover, if a female cultivator with this physique maintains her virginity and advances to the Core Formation stage, due to the long-term absorption of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, a special environment similar to the Spirit Eye Land will form within her body, condensing a drop of 'True Phoenix Core Essence' that is comparable to the spiritual energy within a top-grade spirit stone.

This "True Phoenix Elixir" can only be transferred to a man if the female cultivator is willing. If it is forcibly extracted, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Furthermore, a woman with the Spirit Gathering Body can only transfer this drop of 'True Phoenix Elixir Essence' to one man in her lifetime. After that, her body will not produce any more.

If one loses their virginity before this, the "True Phoenix Elixir" will also dissipate on its own.

The 'True Phoenix Elixir' is comparable to the legendary top-grade spirit stones. If a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator obtains it, their chance of forming a Core can reach over 90%. If a late-stage Core Formation cultivator obtains it, their chance of forming a Nascent Soul can also increase by 20% to 30%.

Li Ping already had a 60-70% success rate in forming his Nascent Soul. If he were to obtain Wei Yiling's "True Phoenix Elixir," forming his Nascent Soul would be almost a certainty.

Moreover, the 'True Phoenix Elixir' also has the effect of enhancing cultivation.

The True Phoenix Elixir is not a pill, but it will have the same effect on him. Li Ping estimated that if he obtained it, he could save himself sixty years of arduous cultivation.

Thinking of this, Li Ping looked at Wei Yiling: "Fellow Daoist Wei, I see your sincerity. However, I can only do my best regarding the restrictions within your and Fellow Daoist Feng's souls. If it fails, please don't blame me."
