Starting My Cultivation With Immortality

Chapter 34 Afternoon Tea Dao Discussion

“The spiritual energy here is so dense. Do you intend to stay in Yuyang for a long time?

As fellow cultivators, I’ll get straight to the point. If there’s anything you need to do in the future, as long as it doesn’t violate morality, just tell me, Mr. Su.”

Although Zhao Wuji knew many cultivators, they were all demons, ghosts, or gods. He was not familiar with any real immortal cultivators but he had seen them from afar and had never seen or gone to the blessed land.

However, the dense spiritual energy here still frightened him. He thought to himself that even if Mr. Su hadn’t been cultivating on Yao Mountain that night, this person’s cultivation level was unimaginably high.

Ordinary cultivators couldn’t turn an ordinary mansion into a legendary paradise.

“Then I’ll thank you in advance.”

It didn’t matter if others took the initiative to express their goodwill, be it to curry favor or out of fear like Hu Shanhai. Yun Su didn’t want to go anywhere for the time being. He planned to stay in Yuyang City and get to know more cultivators so that he could integrate into this world in the future.

Then, the two of them chatted about cultivation.

Yun Su was more interested in the path of the incense gods and mentioned it briefly. He did not expect City God Zhao to explain the path of the gods such as the City God, the Netherworld, and the Mountain God.

“My divine designation came about because I fixed Yueshui River, which gave me some fame. I was treated kindly by the people of Yuyang. At that time, the county magistrate also recognized me. Therefore, a temple was made.

Over the years, I relied on managing the District’s netherworld to obtain some incense merit. Although I had encountered no real danger along the way, it was not an exaggeration to say that at one point, I was struggling. I was not as carefree as you, an Immortal Dao expert.

If you’re interested in the path of the gods of the mountains and rivers, you can read this “Little Book of Incense” when you’re free.”

Zhao Wuji first took out a small thread-bound book that still had the smell of incense. Yun Su did not stand on ceremony and thanked him before accepting it. Then, he asked him what they thought of the Dao of incense.

During this seclusion, Yun Su made great progress in his cultivation. He also had many opinions on the merit of incense offerings and the Karma Divine Dao but the technique could not be passed down easily. After taking a look at the other party’s divine incense body, he already knew what to do.

“On the path of cultivation, there is no distinction between good and evil. Be it the path of the gods or the path of the Great Dao, the most important thing is to have a clear Dao heart and be able to see one’s true nature. As the saying goes, there are things one should do and things one should not do, if one follows this, there is no fear.

Cultivators, whether it’s the Immortal Dao, the Demon Dao, the Ghost Dao, or even the Fey Dao, as long as they follow that trace of opportunity and see their true nature, don’t fall into the killing evil path, don’t have any mental demons, and don’t be tainted by too much bad karma, the path of cultivation will naturally be easy.”

Yun Su did not finish his sentence. The problem with City God Zhao was probably the same problem faced by many of the City God officials and the gods of the mountains and rivers. The problem was with him. If he understood, he understood. If he did not understand, it was not time yet.

The other party was polite and not annoying. He just stopped there and did not say anything too complicated.

Looking over with his Dharma Eye, countless people were kowtowing and praying in the light of incense behind City God Zhao. It was a mess. There were all kinds of requests. One went to make a wish even for a pigpen or a stone mill.

Zhao Wuji seemed to have comprehended something and nodded slowly as if he had found a clue but it was still unclear.

“Thank you for your guidance. Hais, Sorry for taking the liberty to ask for guidance this time. It’s really too difficult to encounter cultivators. The path of the gods has no inheritance or faction, so some problems are always troubling me.”

“Oh? There are so few cultivators in the Yangming Prefecture? I saw that the foreign races were so docile and dormant. I thought that the human path was prosperous and the foreign races were afraid.”

Zhao Wuji shook his head and sighed:

“Mr. Su, you are the only cultivator in Yuyang City that I know of. As for those who have some spiritual energy and know some minor techniques, I can occasionally see them.

In the entire Yangming Prefecture, there were only a handful of cultivators on the surface. Even in the entire Yang Province, there was only one true cultivation sect, the Tile House Sect, on the Tile House Ridge in the Hejian Prefecture.

In addition, there’s a Mount Wu Sword Palace in the Yangzhou Prefecture where the Yang Province capital is located. On the surface, it’s a holy land for martial arts but it’s rumored that there are Connate sword cultivators. I wonder if they have embarked on the path of immortality.”

Yun Su liked to have tea with people like that. They lived long, were well-informed, and had a lot of knowledge. Those City Gods and Soil Gods were the standard locals. It was easy to talk about something interesting.

“Is there anyone worthy of praise amongst the foreign cultivators and gods?”

“Speaking of foreign species cultivators, that Hu Shanhai is not ordinary. This person is well-hidden, tactful, and has a wide range of friends. Even in the entire Yangming Prefecture, he can be considered a top figure.

In addition, it was said that there was a spiritual bird with profound cultivation in the Yangming Mountain outside Yangming Prefecture. As a demon, it walked the immortal path. It was said that it did strange things and was both good and evil.

In the Mirror Lake of Yangzhou Prefecture, there was a Carp Demon that was quite skilled. A few years ago, he heard that it showed signs of transforming into a dragon.

“In addition, there is a flood in the river outside the city every year. It seems that there are anomalies causing trouble but it has never been investigated.”

A spiritual bird that walked the immortal path, a carp demon that wanted to transform into a dragon and an anomaly that was suspected to cause the water of the Yueshui River to flood every year, Yun Su became more vigilant.

The world was not as peaceful and safe as it seemed. Not to mention that some powerful people were hiding in the dark, even the spiritual bird of Yangming Mountain and the old carp of Mirror Lake had already revealed themselves to a distant god like Zhao Wuji. In reality, their true strength might not be hidden.

Before one could be completely prepared, it’s better to avoid going out and wandering around. Others can’t kill you but they can disgust you. If you encounter a ten-thousand-year-old demon, capture it and lock it up for a thousand or two years to study it. The only way to avoid such a disaster is to give it your all or even expose your trump card. However, once you expose it, the trump card won’t be a trump card anymore. You have to find stronger trump cards.

Otherwise, even if he killed the other party 10,000 years later, he would only feel better standing on the other party’s grave and spitting

Yun Su also had some thoughts in his heart. He would slowly plan for the future.

“As for the various City Gods and Soil Gods, I’m afraid it’s rare for them to catch your eye. Although there are strong and weak ones, the limitations are too great. For example, in the Yangzhou Prefecture City where the State City is located, the City God was conferred by the current imperial court 300 years ago. It has 31 temples of various sizes. If there’s a battle in the territory under its jurisdiction, its divine power is naturally astonishing. However, its power is ordinary outside that small area.

Be it humans, demons, or gods, they would naturally obtain the Divine Positions when they had the opportunity. As for demons, ghosts, ghosts, and charming spirits, they could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth day and night and worship the sun, moon, and stars from afar. They could also cultivate a little.

However, it was much inferior to the immortals on mountains with orderly inheritances and blessed lands.

In the eyes of mortals, demons and ghosts were extremely cruel and indiscriminate although that was not necessarily true.

“In the Yangming Prefecture, the foreign species mostly keep a low profile. Some of them are wretched and evil and they are everywhere. They are also like Hu Shanhai, who is unwilling to be involved in killing and karma. They get along well with local cultivators.”

Yun Su nodded. He had seen all the demons and ghosts in Yuyang City. These words were

fair.

“If you want to cultivate immortality, aptitude and opportunities are indispensable. It’s indeed difficult. Some people have outstanding aptitude but it’s difficult for them to encounter an immortal in their lives. Some people have dusty eyes and don’t know that they encountered an immortal.”

“You are right.”

Zhao Wuji seemed to have a thought and smiled.

“By the way, Mr. Su, every year at the Dragon Boat Festival, the cultivators of Yuyang will have a small gathering and hold a Three Spirit Meet. This year, it’s my turn to be the host. If you come at that time, it will definitely be our honor.”

“It’s still early for the festival. We’ll see.”

Yun Su was still interested in the Three Spirits Meet.

The two of them drank for a while more before Zhao Wuji got up and bade farewell. He took out a can of Yuyang Maojian Tea as a gift. Yun Su drank the tea and also received a can of new tea and a small book of incense. He thought that he should prepare some gifts for his guests in the future.

Standing at the door, he was a little tempted when he saw the City God ride the incense and leave.

After seeing Zhao Wuji use the Divine Wind of Incense to fly twice in a row today, Yun Su naturally couldn’t hold it in anymore. Ever since he entered the Soul Formation realm, other than the Breeze Technique recorded in the Mystic Sutra, he hadn’t cultivated any flying techniques.

However, after comprehending the insights from travelling Great Void and deducing the Yin-Yang Fish Diagram, his entire body felt light. Sometimes, when a gust of wind blew, it seemed like he would float away with the wind.

It was time to solve the problem of the cultivation geek’s emergency travel.

After closing the courtyard door, he informed Wang Xuanji about his imminent seclusion before returning to his room to deduce a way to fly.
