Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 734 - 341: Reunion (Part 3)

His face is handsome, his temperament refined like jade, and every motion exudes an air of innate authority.

Beside him, a Nascent Soul shrouded in black aura floats in the void.

Suddenly, a spiritual breeze sweeps across the lake, causing ripples to spread.

A stream of light breaks through the sky, transforming into a figure before the Jade Flower Pavilion.

Clad in white robes, with an ethereal presence and a style reminiscent of immortal realms, his face appears handsome.

Upon closer inspection, it is none other than Xu Ping.

"Brother Hong, Elder, it has been a long time." Xu Ping smiled and cupped his hands, his gaze falling on Hongyi.

After seven or eight years, Hongyi’s aura has grown thicker, as steady and deep as a mountain, showing signs of breaking through to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul.

At this cultivation speed, it wouldn’t be long before Hongyi might attempt to break through to Mid-Stage Nascent Soul.

"Congratulations on achieving Nascent Soul, Fellow Daoist Xu, may the path of immortality remain ever-green!" Hongyi replied with a smile, his figure tall and dignified.

While Xu Ping observed Hongyi, Hongyi was also assessing Xu Ping.

To his surprise, Fellow Daoist Xu had just breached Nascent Soul, yet his aura was no less than that of cultivators who ascended years ago.

His aura of blood is vast as the smoke sea, clearly reaching the Fourth Rank. This shows how profound his potential and foundation are.

Indeed, his potential and foundation are profoundly deep.

"Not bad, Xu lad didn’t disappoint me, successfully breaking through to Nascent Soul!"

At this moment, a hoarse laugh emanates from the black haze, undoubtedly the voice of the Nine Nether Elder.

The black haze writhes, faintly revealing the Nine Nether Elder in Nascent Soul form, scrutinizing Xu Ping.

"It was merely luck. If I were to undergo another Nascent Soul Tribulation, I would have no confidence at all!" Xu Ping’s lips curled into a bitter smile.

This was not modesty but a fact.

His Heart Demon Tribulation was too terrifying, far more insidious and unpredictable than typical ones, making it impossible to guard against.

Especially the tribulation within the tribulation, even now thinking about it still leaves him heart uneasy.

Moreover, every time Xu Ping thought about the Profound Celestial Embryo mentioned during the Heart Demon Tribulation, his mood became exceedingly complicated.

Is the reality like it was during the Heart Demon Tribulation, where the other party already knew of it, or was the tribulation deliberately crafting an illusion to disturb his judgment?

But Xu Ping certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to inquire impulsively.

The matter concerning the Profound Celestial Embryo is of great significance; he must not expose any flaws.

...

Outside the pavilion, the spiritual lake gleams brilliantly, the gentle breeze refreshing, a scene straight out of an immortal land.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Ping got to the point: "Elder, you mentioned before that once I achieved Nascent Soul, we were to collaborate. What kind of cooperation did you mean?"

His gaze inadvertently rested on the Nascent Soul surrounded by the black haze.

The Nascent Soul seemed to sense his gaze, turning slightly, its eyes flashing with a faint eerie red light.

"Heh heh."

Upon hearing this, the Nine Nether Elder let out a quirky laugh, the black haze surging, "I see your aura of blood has already reached the Fourth Rank, enough for cultivating the ’Nirvana Golden Body’."

"Do you wish..."

He paused, his tone carrying a hint of temptation, "to learn the ’Nirvana Golden Body’ at the entry level?"

"Cultivate the ’Nirvana Golden Body’?"

Upon hearing, Xu Ping’s heart trembled, but he kept a calm exterior.

The Nirvana Golden Body is an upper realm cultivation technique, its strength apparent even from the records.

If he could cultivate this technique, it would be a significant trump card, especially facing threats like the Thunder Heaven Sect.

But Xu Ping is well aware of the difficulty in cultivating the Nirvana Golden Body.

In the world of the Heart Demon Tribulation, he had attempted it, but the spiritual materials were far from being gathered, not to mention the actual cultivation.

"Does the elder have a way?"

Suppressing the tumultuous thoughts in his mind, Xu Ping asked seriously.

His eyes flashed with a hint of anticipation but predominantly caution.

After all, there is no free lunch in the world; the Nine Nether Elder offering the cultivation method surely comes with a price.

"A way certainly exists."

The Nine Nether Elder’s tone carried a mysterious undertone, the black haze fluctuating, seeming to contain countless tiny runes flickering within,

"but in the Nanchuan Realm it’s impossible, resources are too scarce."

"To gather the materials needed for cultivating the Nirvana Golden Body, it has to be in the Wind Origin Realm."

"Oh?"

"Wind Origin Realm?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping’s brow slightly furrowed, his eyes twinkled, his thoughts racing.

The resources in the Wind Origin Realm are indeed richer compared to the Nanchuan Realm, even housing more than one Divinity Transformation cultivator.

Moreover, one of his original escape routes was towards the Wind Origin Realm.

Now that it’s proposed by the other party, is it akin to a pillow meeting a drowsy head?

After a moment of silence, Xu Ping raised a question:

"Even if the Wind Origin Realm can gather the Nirvana Golden Body’s materials, its imminent invasion means going there equals walking into a trap?"

His eyes carried a questioning look, seemingly probing the true intentions of the Nine Nether Elder.

Xu Ping was not one to act rashly; his experience with the terror of the Wind Origin Realm invasion during the Heart Demon Tribulation cautioned him against heading there easily. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"You don’t need to worry about that."

The Nine Nether Elder’s hoarse voice brimmed with absolute confidence, "When the Wind Origin Realm and the Nanchuan Realm form numerous spatial channels, not all will be as conspicuous as large teleportation arrays."

"These smaller channels are often overlooked by major forces in the Wind Origin Realm and used only by small sects or Loose Cultivators."

"Moreover, these smaller channels are unstable in energy; they allow limited cultivators, and those of too high cultivation dare not cross easily for fear of causing channel collapse."

The black haze surrounding the Nine Nether Elder writhes as he continued, "We can precisely avoid the heavily guarded large spatial channels and discreetly traverse through a minor spatial node."

"Even if discovered, we can quickly eliminate the cultivators guarding the channel."

"I see."

Xu Ping understands, a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.

If this is indeed the case, finding a secret spatial channel does make smuggling into the Wind Origin Realm not too risky.

After all, the vast boundary regions are impossible to completely secure.
