Chapter 3: Shi Chen's Ambition, Cultivating Two Paths Simultaneously!
However, regarding these cultivation resources, Yun Xiao expressed a slight dissatisfaction.
"My master doesn't have many low-level cultivation resources on hand, so you can make do with these for now."
"I will collect some more for you later."
"Moreover, I noticed that your eyes seem to contain a certain power, but it hasn't been developed yet."
"When I return this time, I will find a method for you to cultivate this power within.
Is this the bliss of having a powerful protector?
Shi Chen was enveloped by immense joy.
This was simply too good to be true.
He didn't have to worry about anything, his teacher had prepared everything for him.
All he needed to do was cultivate diligently.
After saying these words, Yun Xiao left.
Leaving Shi Chen alone in the cave to cultivate.
Since Yun Xiao was a True Immortal from the moment of his birth, he had zero experience with cultivation below the Immortal Realm.
Even if he wanted to guide Shi Chen, he wouldn't know where to begin.
After Yun Xiao left, Shi Chen began to examine the pile of cultivation materials in front of him.
Although Yun Xiao didn't care about these resources, they were extremely valuable to Shi Chen.
Various pills, spirit materials, basically everything one could imagine.
Unfortunately, Shi Chen hadn't entered the path of cultivation yet, so he could only stare at these items helplessly, unable to use them.
Then, Shi Chen turned his attention to the cultivation method Yun Xiao had just imparted, the Golden Core Technique.
This technique's name was simply Golden Core Technique, without any fancy title.
It's truly worthy of being a technique created by the Primordial Saint.
Even its name reflects the Primordial Saint's style: simple, direct, and easy to understand.
But Shi Chen didn't underestimate this technique in the slightest.
This was the Golden Core Path!
And it was directly from the Primordial Saint.
"Swallow a Golden Core within your belly, my destiny shall be in my own hands!"
This is what the Golden Core Technique represents.
Not to mention, this Golden Core Technique was specifically designed by the Primordial Saint for the Human race, to teach the human race.
And just when they first met, Yun Xiao had said he was of the Human race.
So, the compatibility between this technique and himself was definitely extraordinary.
Within the Golden Core Technique, there were only four realms below the Immortal Realm.
Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Spirit, Refining Spirit into Void, and Refining Void into Dao!
Based on his knowledge from his previous life and this life, Shi Chen compared the realms of both worlds.
Refining Essence into Qi, should correspond to Blood Refinement Realm, Cave Heaven Realm, and Spirit Transformation Realm.
These three realms essentially focus on developing oneself and laying a foundation.
Refining Qi into Spirit, should correspond to the Inscription Realm, Array Realm, and Venerable Realm.
At this level, one begins to grasp various supernatural abilities, transcending the use of brute force and becoming different from ordinary people.
Refining Spirit into Void, should be equivalent to the Divine Fire Realm, True One Realm, and Sacred Sacrifice Realm.
As for the final Refining Void into Dao, Shi Chen deduced that it should be from the Heavenly God Realm to the Escaping the Cycle Realm.
However, since he hadn't actually encountered any existence at that level, he was only making a simple deduction based on his memories.
Beyond that, it was beyond his current reach.
With the help of the cultivation resources left behind by Yun Xiao, and the incredibly dense spiritual energy of the Primordial World,
It only took half a day for Shi Chen to break through to the Initial Stage of Refining Essence into Qi.
Shi Chen even felt that even if he didn't actively cultivate, simply staying in the Primordial World for a long time and breathing the air of this world would allow him to break through over time.
Now, Shi Chen finally understood why Yun Xiao was so surprised to find that he had no cultivation whatsoever.
In this Primordial World, where the natural environment was so powerful, it would be incredibly difficult for anyone to remain without cultivation.
After reaching the Initial Stage of Refining Essence into Qi, Shi Chen sensed the stone bead that had brought him to the Primordial World, floating within his sea of consciousness.
Shi Chen had always felt that this bead was by his side, but he couldn't find it.
It turned out it had already integrated with him.
If he hadn't successfully entered the path of cultivation, Shi Chen wouldn't have discovered its existence.
Shi Chen's consciousness gently touched the bead and realized that he could return to Shi Village through it.
This immediately relieved Shi Chen.
He thought he would be stuck in the Primordial World, unable to return.
After all, compared to the unfamiliar, dangerous and full of opportunities Primordial World, he still held many fond memories of Shi Village, where he had grown up.
Moreover, if he could return to Shi Village, Shi Chen couldn't help but have a bold idea.
That is, to cultivate two paths simultaneously.
With such an opportunity, Shi Chen naturally didn't want to remain ordinary.
The Primordial World's cultivation methods emphasized the Dao, making it easy to achieve longevity.
But in terms of combat prowess, they were lacking. One's fighting ability depended entirely on personal talent and effort.
While the Perfect World's cultivation methods emphasized techniques, all supernatural powers were designed for combat. They might find longevity difficult, but their combat ability was undoubtedly superior.
Therefore, Shi Chen planned to combine the strengths of both, and forge himself into a well-rounded warrior!
