We said we would experience life, fairy, how did you become real?

Sensing the danger to its life, the Stegosaurus Turtle instinctively spat out a jet of water.

Xiao Mo was unable to dodge in time and was hit in the arm.

"Xiao Mo!" Bai Ruxue was startled and rushed over to check Xiao Mo's wounds. "Are you alright?"

"It's alright, Sister Bai, it's just a minor injury. How can you cultivate without getting hurt?" Xiao Mo didn't seem to care. "I'll continue fighting him."

Bai Ruxue shook her head: "Let's not play today. Xiao Mo, you've done a great job. Go back to your room and rest. I'll call you for dinner later."

Bai Ruxue reached out and touched Xiao Mo's wound. Fortunately, it was only a minor injury and healed quickly.

"Okay, then, sister, I'm going to rest for a while."

Xiao Mo actually wanted to fight that sword dragon turtle; he had just been in the mood for it.

But seeing Ruxue's expression, she definitely wouldn't agree.

"Okay, go ahead."

Bai Ruxue smiled and gently patted Xiao Mo's head.

After Xiao Mo entered the room, Bai Ruxue's smiling face immediately fell.

Bai Ruxue turned around and looked at the sword dragon turtle.

Feeling the immense dragon's might, the Stegosaurus Turtle trembled incessantly.

That evening, when Xiao Mo stepped out of the courtyard, he discovered that the Stegosaurus Turtle was gone.

"Sister Bai, did you send that Stegosaurus Turtle away?" Xiao Mo asked.

After Xiao Mo sparred with the ferocious beasts, Bai Ruxue would release them.

"Ah? That turtle? Hmm, it really is gone." Bai Ruxue called out from the kitchen, "Xiao Mo, wait a minute, your sister will be cooking soon."

“Okay, Sister Bai.” Xiao Mo nodded and continued to flip through the book in the courtyard.

Half an incense stick later, Bai Ruxue brought the stew pot out of the kitchen.

The aroma wafting from the pot made Xiao Mo's mouth water: "Sister Bai, what are we having for dinner tonight? It smells so good!"

"It's nothing, just something I made casually. If it smells good, then Xiao Mo should eat more tonight."

"Ah."

Bai Ruxue placed the stew pot on the table.

Xiao Mo poked his head out and looked into the pot.

Ok?

Why does this turtle look so familiar?

Chapter 96 What a vicious dragon from the Immortal Realm!

"Master, are there really dragons in the North Sea?"

Over the North Sea, a young man asked his master a question.

The man's master was an old man with white hair, who looked like a hermit, the kind of person people would call a hermit.

The old man's name was Li Fengshan. He was the patriarch of the Myriad Manifestations Sect and a cultivator at the peak of the Immortal Realm.

The old man held a jade plate with an array.

The pointer on the jade plate kept spinning, as if it were locating something.

"Yes, of course there is. In the North Sea, there is a Dragon Lord, a dragon at the early stage of the Immortal Realm."

The sect leader of the Myriad Manifestations Sect stroked his beard and smiled.

"Under his command are eight dragon kings. One of them, a blue dragon, is her sister and manages the affairs of the North Sea for her. The other seven dragon kings are located in the seven directions of the North Sea, guarding the Dragon Palace."

The North Sea is located at the intersection of the realm of demons and the realm of myriad laws.

Furthermore, since the North Sea Dragon Palace doesn't usually cause trouble, the human race mostly ignores it.

Hearing his master's words, a hint of worry flashed in the eyes of the young man named Su Ren:

“Master, the North Sea is so powerful, I think we should just give up. I can cultivate on my own. If we really hurt the North Sea Dragon Lord, the entire North Sea might turn against the demon race, which would be detrimental to our human race’s front.”

"Silly boy."

Li Fengshan smiled, his old face covered with wrinkles.

He reached out and patted his disciple's head: "Su Ren, you are too kind, but you must know one thing: a human is a human, and a demon is a demon. Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts!"

Do you really believe that the North Sea Dragon Palace is merely neutral?

Ha ha ha.

The North Sea Dragon Palace is simply waiting for the demon race to offer an even higher price!

As for the goodwill emanating from the North Sea Dragon Palace, it was merely an attempt by the North Sea Dragon Palace to lull the human race into a false sense of security.

When the time is right, the North Sea Dragon Palace will not hesitate to bare its fangs at the human race!

"Is that really true?" Su Ren asked with an innocent look in his eyes.

“Su Ren, you are still young, so naturally you don’t understand the wickedness of these demons.”

Li Fengshan sighed.

"Ten thousand years ago, after the first great war between the human race and the demon race, the conflict between the human race and the demon race became irreconcilable. Over the years, the two sides have had constant friction and their hatred has accumulated to a very deep level."

Do you know what the greatest calamity facing the snake clan as they traversed the river was?

It is not some so-called heavenly tribulation, but rather a tribulation for our human race.

Dragons are treasures from head to toe. Most of the dragons that transform into river dragons are hunted down, and only a small number manage to escape into the deep sea.

Do you think the dragons wouldn't hate us humans under these circumstances?

They wanted to skin us alive, to tear us apart, and to use our souls as fuel for lamps!

Hearing his master's words, Su Ren lowered his head and remained silent for a moment.

"That's how all demons are."

Li Fengshan patted his last disciple on the shoulder again, a burning glint in his eyes.

“Disciple, you don’t need to think too much. Although you are only fifteen years old and your cultivation level is only at the Cave Abode Realm, you are exceptionally talented. You are a rare talent, the Returning Void Sacred Body, which can devour all things, return to the origin, and transform nutrients for your own use.”

For you, there are virtually no bottlenecks in cultivation.

As for me, I don't have many years left to live, but fortunately I still have this level of attainment.

The North Sea Dragon Lord is only at the early stage of the Immortal Realm, while I am two minor realms higher than her.

Although I cannot win easily, I have prepared for so long that even if it means mutual destruction, I will kill her.

This is not only to rid my human race of a great scourge, but also for you!

"Once you absorb the essence of this dragon's blood, and combine it with the Myriad Manifestations Technique of my Myriad Manifestations Sect, all you need to do is cultivate diligently, and your future will be limitless!"

"But Master, what about you?" Su Ren couldn't bear to part with his master.

Su Ren was originally an orphan.

However, five years ago, Su Ren was found by Li Fengshan and embarked on the path of cultivation.

For Su Ren, his master was like his father.

"Hehehe, it's alright. Just do your job well. This is for the greater good of the world and for the long-term survival of the Myriad Manifestations Sect. Do you understand?" Li Fengshan's tone was reprimanding.

"Disciple understands." Su Ren lowered his head.

"Let's go quickly." Li Fengshan smiled at his disciple. "I have located her position. Today, I will severely damage Beihai!"

"It's Master!"

An uninhabited island in Beihai.

A boy sat on the beach, and next to him was a spirit-gathering magic circle being drawn.

The material used to create this magic circle is the Nine Nether Liquid of Dragon Abyss.

Even a few drops of the Nine Nether Liquid, if spilled outside, would cause a frenzy among many rogue cultivators.

But now, this large bottle of Nine Nether Liquid is being used at Xiao Mo's feet as if it were free, simply to draw a spirit-gathering array.

Any cultivator who sees this will sigh, "What a waste!"

The woman in the white dress walked beside the boy with her hands behind her back, her long legs moving beneath her skirt. She took small steps as she spoke:

"Today, your elder sister will explain to you the knowledge about spiritual practice."

First, let's talk about realms.

What is a state of being?

Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Cave Abode, Dragon Gate, Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, Jade Uncarved Stone, Immortal, Ascension.

The so-called realms are actually all human-made divisions.

For humans, a cultivation realm is the result of a cultivator's understanding of the Great Dao and their accumulated practice over time.

In other words, if you don't have a thorough understanding of the Great Dao, and if you haven't accumulated enough knowledge through diligent practice, it will be difficult for you to reach a new level.

For the demon race, realm is more of a purification of bloodline.

However, this does not mean that the demon race does not need to comprehend the Great Dao.

Bloodline and understanding of the Great Dao are equally important to the demon race.

What then is the Way?

Confucian scholars, by continuing the lost learning of past sages and bringing peace to all generations, can prove the Way.

Taoist practitioners can attain enlightenment by comprehending the universe, understanding nature, and realizing their true nature.

Buddhist disciples can attain enlightenment by teaching sentient beings, doing good deeds, and accumulating merit.

The wandering knights of the Mohist school sought to prove the principles of fairness in their hearts.

Even the Hehuan Sect (a sect of Buddhist sects) responded.

Well.

I won't go into that, Xiao Mo, you don't need to know.

In short, there are countless paths in the world.

But ultimately, it's all about following the path in one's heart.

As long as you believe that the path you are on is the right one, and continue to walk it with unwavering faith, you will attain enlightenment.

If you eventually realize that your path is wrong, the higher your realm, the more likely you are to have an unstable Dao heart, or even a shattered Dao heart.

Unless you break through and rebuild, your level of understanding may plummet.

"Do you understand what I'm saying, Xiao Mo?"

Xiao Mo, who was gathering spiritual energy within the formation, opened his eyes and slowly nodded: "I think I understand somewhat. Sister Bai, in the end, will you really be without desires or wants?"

"Hehehe, how could that be?"

Bai Ruxue covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

"It depends on what path the cultivator takes. Unless they cultivate the path of detachment, most cultivators will eventually reach a point where they cannot be without desires."

Quite the opposite.

Most cultivators, the further they progress in their cultivation, the more they reveal their personality and preferences.

For example, someone who is lustful might pursue beauty even more.

For example, those who are greedy for money will become even greedier.

But the higher their level of attainment, the more different kinds of beauty and wealth they will pursue.

"Oh, I see." Xiao Mo nodded.

"Good, now let's talk about spiritual power."

Why spiritual power?
