Longevity in Two Worlds: Double Pupils Are the Road to Invincibility

Chapter 96: Primary and Secondary (Second update, please subscribe)

"My progress in practicing Taoism is much faster than my progress in practicing martial arts!"

"It was only after I arrived in Ninghe County and received the letter of recommendation that I began to practice Taoism and joined Changqing Temple. But now I have reached the Sun-Traveling Realm. If I can improve one step further, I will be able to control creatures and possess combat power comparable to a Bone Refining Martial Artist."

"In comparison, the progress in martial arts is still slightly behind."

"It seems that my talent in practicing Taoism is higher than my talent in practicing martial arts."

After Shi Yi consolidated his improvement in Taoism, he did not stand up, but was thinking about this matter.

He saw many people practicing Taoism in Changqing Temple, and their martial arts skills were generally not high, including his master Song Jing.

Some of these people do not have enough resources for practice and naturally will not spend time on martial arts practice, while the other part simply does not have the extra time.

Just like his master Song Jing, he spent most of his time practicing Taoism and naturally had no time to practice martial arts. As for the physical requirements, it was enough to be able to strengthen the body, not get sick, and not hinder the practice of Taoism.

Just like Jiang Chenze, the third son of the Jiang family, and Mr. Lou Xuanming from Anyuan Town, they devote their energy to reading, reading more and reading good books.

A person has limited energy, limited talent, limited time, and many other limitations.

Therefore, we can only choose the path that suits us within limited conditions.

Everyone knows that the path of multiple cultivations is more powerful, but people do not have that much time. If you spend time on martial arts cultivation, then the time spent on Taoism cultivation will definitely be reduced. This is inevitable.

Just like Shi Yi, he did not do his usual martial arts practice this morning.

Is it because he doesn't want to? No, this is a concession to the practice of Taoism, because Taoism practice also requires special time and environment.

Before, he practiced martial arts and Taoism, one during the day and the other at night, and they did not affect each other. But now, he broke through the daytime realm, and the restrictions on Taoism disappeared, so there must be a conflict between the two in time.

Shi Yi needs to adjust the time, and one of them will definitely be affected. This is unavoidable.

Shi Yi has outstanding martial arts roots and is a martial arts genius.

A genius in Taoism, his Taoist practice improves by leaps and bounds.

Even so, he had to face this kind of thing and make a choice, not to mention others!
"The path of multiple cultivations is powerful, but I need to prioritize."

"Next, I should focus on practicing Taoism, supplemented by practicing martial arts."

Shi Yi actually already had the answer in his mind, because when the two came into conflict, he had already made a choice in his mind.

Just like practicing Taoism, before becoming an immortal, one’s lifespan is not very long due to the limitations of the physical body. Only by becoming an immortal can one live freely and forever.

Many people who practice Taoism spend their entire lives practicing Taoism just to be able to take this step.

The same is true for martial arts practice. Before becoming a congenital master, the lifespan is similar to that of ordinary people. Afterwards, as the level of cultivation rises above the congenital master, the lifespan will increase a little, but not much. Only when the martial arts cultivation reaches a certain level will a qualitative change occur.

In either case, it takes time.

When practicing martial arts, after reaching a certain age, the body's functions deteriorate, the changes in Qi and blood decrease, and the martial arts skills will also decline, becoming difficult to improve.

When practicing Taoism, after reaching a certain age, one becomes dazed and has difficulty keeping the mind clear, which is the state of blurred vision caused by old age. This is also unavoidable.

So there are trade-offs to be made.

Compared with the two, the decline of Taoist practice takes place later, because it is difficult for people to keep their minds clear in old age. If a person has a firm mind, he can maintain his energy consumption until the end of his life.

Shi Yi saw relevant records in the Taoist books of Changqing Temple.

Some of this can also be seen in the reality of Blue Star.

Some people suffer from Alzheimer's disease, but some people maintain a good mental state in their eighties or nineties.

Shi Yi had lunch in Changqing Temple. The food was very good, a combination of meat and vegetables, and not bland. It was much better than the one in Anhe Martial Arts Hall. Then Shi Yi left Changqing Temple.

He first returned to his rented residence, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, he disappeared into the cubicle!
Shi Yi returned to Blue Star.

A lot of message notifications popped up on the mobile chat app. Shi Yi opened it and saw that it was mainly from the class group.

The head teacher talked about the arrangements for visiting Blue Sky University over the weekend in the class group.

The registration form was also sent in the group. It listed the people who went to visit Blue Sky University, including the names and phone numbers of these students' parents. The records were very detailed, so that the students who went there could confirm the information.

Shi Yi looked at the time. It was already Saturday, and the visit to Blue Sky University would be tomorrow!
He glanced at the messages in the group and found nothing that required his attention, so he exited the class group and opened the message with the note 'Mom'.

Qin Wanqing asked about his situation, and Shi Yi replied briefly.

"Huh! It feels like a lifetime ago."

Shi Yi took a deep breath and sighed.

In just a few days, he faced so many things in the Central World, encountered danger, solved cultivation problems, improved his cultivation, etc.

If he hadn't seen the chat group talk about visiting Blue Sky University, he wouldn't have realized that several days had passed.

This is the case when he tries to go back to Blue Star every day.

"Practice is what I pursue. I have a firm goal, and that is enough!"

Shi Yi had already made his choice in his heart since he went to the Central World.

Naturally, he would not miss the opportunity to become an immortal.

Although other students of his age on Blue Star had a good campus life, especially a comfortable university life, this was not the path he wanted.

"Even if the path of cultivation is full of thorns and bumps, I have no regrets."

Shi Yi said lightly.

In an instant, Shi Yi felt that the melancholy feeling disappeared, and was replaced by a clear mind.

"I didn't expect that just after I felt a sense of identity in the Central Great World and deepened my connection with the Central Great World, breaking through to the Sun Travel Realm, and just after returning to Blue Star, I encountered obstacles in my Taoist practice."

"It's really interesting."

Shi Yi chuckled and then didn't care.

These are all minor problems on the path of cultivation.

Every time he passes through one, he will become stronger and his cultivation progress will be faster.

"I'll go to Damao again later. This time I'm going to buy some powerful electric batons and other protective gear. Electric batons are very useful against those Taoist masters."

Shi Yi knew very well that the Taoist magic performed by those Taoist masters was basically related to the soul.

Holding lightning in hand can restrain most Taoist magic and is a very good means of self-defense.

As for the lightning-struck wood, it will take some time to make it into a magical weapon. At this time, Shi Yi still needs some powerful means of self-defense.

The electric baton is not only useful for Taoist practitioners, but also has an effect on martial arts practitioners, but it is not as obvious as on Taoist practitioners.

Especially since the electric baton Shi Yi had bought online before had limited power, he wanted to buy a powerful electric baton.

He has been in danger every time he has been in the city center these days, so he naturally needs more means of self-protection.

Even though the Night Fury snake demon is dead now, there is no guarantee that there are no other dangers hidden.

People cannot put their own safety on the shoulders of others, as they will be helpless when faced with danger.

There is a five-hour time difference between Damao and Daxia. It is noon in Daxia and morning in Damao, which is not suitable for special transactions.

Shi Yi still prefers to do business at night, as it is convenient to do business and leave under the cover of darkness, with less trouble.
