destiny eternal calamity

Li Wei walked a few hundred steps inside, and a pretty young woman dressed in silk came to greet him.

"May I ask your honorable name, sir, and what brings you to Kunlun?"

She blinked her big, watery eyes and asked.

Li Wei was dressed in tree bark and wearing a tree bark mask, making him look extremely rugged.

But his hair wasn't messy; it was smooth and well-styled, unlike that of a real savage.

That's why the young woman was curious about the background of the man in front of her.

"My name is Wei Li, and I have come to Kunlun to seek the Dao."

Li Wei knew that the Queen Mother of the West was watching him. He came to ask for the "Nine Cauldrons True Secret," and it was fine if he said he was seeking the Dao.

The young woman thought he was another human seeking martial arts training, and a look of sudden realization dawned on her face.

Although she didn't know why the boy hadn't been tested before being allowed in through the main gate, it didn't stop her from following the proper procedures.

Li Wei followed the young woman through the crowd and entered the third jade building on the left.

The space inside the building seems larger than the outside.

It's possible that some kind of spatial magic was used to expand the space.

Now that we've accepted the existence of the Immortal Realm, these unbelievable methods aren't so surprising anymore.

Inside the jade tower, on the first floor, there are many fighting arenas where people are sparring in pairs, while others are practicing martial arts alone.

On the second floor, you can vaguely see many people sitting on the floor, seemingly engaged in a debate.

It seems that there are rooms available for people to live on both the first and second floors.

"Young Master Wei, this is where Kunlun teaches martial arts to the human race."

As the young woman in the silk dress spoke, she walked to the side and called over a burly man with tattoos on his face.

The tattooed, burly man was very enthusiastic towards the young woman in the silk dress, but unfortunately, she ignored him and walked straight out of the building after finishing her business.

"Jin Yuan, you'd better stop harassing Miss Xiao He. You should know that humans and demons are not meant to be together!"

The people standing nearby joked about it.

The burly man didn't take it seriously and turned to walk towards Li Wei.

"Hello, newcomer. My name is Jin Yuan, and I come from the Jiuli tribe."

"Hello, my name is Wei Li, and I come from the Stone Raven tribe. I have a scar on my face, and I wear a mask so as not to frighten people," Li Wei said.

"Stone Raven Tribe?" Jin Yuan had never heard of this name before, and guessed it must be some obscure little tribe.

Although the human race now has a Xuanyuan clan that is known as the Human Emperor, it is still in a state of disarray, with large and small tribes scattered like stars in the sky.

It's perfectly normal that he hadn't heard of the tribe the boy in front of him came from.

"Since you've come all this way to Kunlun, you must be here to learn martial arts. Let me take you to get your disciple's robes and basic training manuals first."

Li Wei didn't know what the Queen Mother of the West meant. After thinking for a moment, he decided to follow the normal procedure for a young student.

"Okay, thank you, Senior Brother Jin."

Jin Yuan led him to the left, and along the way, many disciples cast inquisitive glances at Li Wei.

After all, although humans lived a miserable life, this was the first time they had ever seen someone whose entire body was covered in tree bark.

Fortunately, most of the Kunlun disciples were elites from various tribes and possessed basic qualities, so they simply watched with curiosity, just like Xiao He, and no one openly mocked Li Wei.

Amidst the intense gazes, Li Wei followed Jin Yuan into a room on the left.

Inside, a man dressed in brown cloth was sitting with his legs crossed, drinking tea, looking calm and collected, as if he were pondering something.

"Senior Brother Wang, a new member has arrived." Jin Yuanqian coughed and reminded him.

"Oh, okay!" Senior Brother Wang quickly put down his tea and took out a two-piece bedding set from the cabinet behind him.

Li Wei received the disciple's robes and the cultivation manual, and then followed Jin Yuan out the door.

"Junior Brother Wei, your batch of new students is almost full. Classes will probably start in three days. I'll let you know then."

"I'll take you to your dorm first. There's nothing to do these next few days, so you can get familiar with the place."

Li Wei naturally had no objections and followed Jin Yuan to a room on the second floor, towards the back.

Just as I stepped onto the second floor, I saw 'Xiao He', who had left earlier, coming over.

"Young Master Wei, your accommodations have been arranged elsewhere. Please follow me."

Li Wei's heart stirred, and he thanked Jin Yuan again before following Xiao He downstairs.

"What's going on?" Jin Yuan looked at Xiao He's retreating figure with some suspicion.

He's been in charge of assigning new recruits for so many years, and he's never seen anyone get a special dormitory assignment before.

He was a little confused, but Kunlun was a large country, so it wasn't surprising that there were special orders from above. He didn't think much about it and went about his own business.

Li Wei followed Xiao He out of the jade building. After walking a short distance, they turned and headed towards the back of the building.

These twelve jade pavilions vary in size, and the one Li Wei just entered was only of medium size.

At that moment, Xiaohe led him to the largest jade building.

"Kunlun Palace," reads a plaque above.

Just as Li Wei reached the door, two beautiful women dressed as maids came out.

"Young master, please bathe and change your clothes."

The two maids, one on each side, grabbed Li Wei's arms and led him away from Xiao He.

Li Wei wasn't particularly flustered. He had gone through this process many times at the princess's residence, so he felt completely unfazed.

He allowed two maids to lead him into a hot spring room inside the building to bathe and change.

The mask was never removed during the entire process.

After bathing, although the maid prepared silk clothes for Li Wei, he still put on the coarse cloth disciple's robe.

Afterwards, I'll inevitably have to deal with those Kunlun disciples, so I'd better avoid wearing silk robes that stand out from the crowd.

His new "dormitory" was arranged in this "Kunlun Palace," not far from the hot spring room.

It should be very convenient for him to go to the hot springs later.

Only after Li Wei entered the room did the two maids beside him walk down one after the other.

He looked around his "dormitory," which was vastly different from the dormitory he had glimpsed in Zuo Sanyu Tower.

In terms of area alone, this room is twice as big as that one, and that one is for multiple people living together, while this one is a single room.

The dormitory there contained nothing but beds and simple storage shelves.

In addition to the necessary bed and desk, there was also a large cluster of flowers in this room.

And it's obvious at a glance that someone takes care of it regularly, as it blooms beautifully.

Li Wei didn't waste any time. He sat down at his desk, took out the basic techniques from the beginner's two-piece set, and began to read them.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

This technique doesn't actually divide the martial artist's stages into three realms.

Instead, they simply referred to it as the "Qi Strength Realm".

The cultivation method given inside is also very strange. It involves constantly tempering the body while feeling the generation of true qi.

When you feel the Qi, that's when you've succeeded.

After a moment's thought, Li Wei seemed to understand why it was so difficult for humans to achieve success in cultivation.

This martial art was originally created by the Queen Mother of the West based on the human physique, and she herself probably wasn't even human.

It is impossible for a genius to know the suffering of an ordinary person.

The so-called "Qi Strength Realm" alone has stopped countless people who could have become cultivators.

It should be noted that even though this realm was later divided into three distinct realms, and the cultivation methods for each step were clearly explained in the manuals.

The vast majority of martial artists are still unable to condense true qi.

This means that even if ordinary people practice according to the answers, it is very difficult to reach the minimum standard for condensing true qi.

The method in this basic cultivation technique that allows one to reach the "Qi Strength Realm" in one step is simply a dead end for ordinary people.
