Storage Tools be damned, they’re things the master can take back at any moment.
Who serves medicinal meals by the vat?
This will surely be eaten by that foolish turtle, right?
And—having to compete with her for White Tiger meat, this turtle now seems to invite her for medicinal meals?
So, does this turtle have more than one vat?
The snake felt heartache.
Her tail tip trembled rapidly, and her voice quivered, “Medicinal meals, where did they come from?”
“Ah!”
Su He said it as a matter of course, “Robbed them!”
?
Amidst her trembling, the confused snake raised her head and discreetly retreated.
You can rob for these things?
Are you not afraid of being smitten dead by a senior of the sect with a single palm?
However, as she moved back a couple of body lengths, no punishment descended from the sky.
Green Snake’s eyes lit up, so… one can also rob within the sect?
Just like at Tinghai Lake?
Just as she was itching to give it a try, a voice came through, “Brother Green Snake, don’t listen to his nonsense!”
The chubby Taoist came down from the high platform.
Pointing at the “Su” character on Turtle Mountain, he said, “That is the Sect Leader’s wife’s insignia.
Try robbing Jing’an Hall, see if you dare.
You won’t even make it out of the kitchen door; your next medicinal meal will be snake soup.”
This turtle really got lucky, not only did it eat Lu Ming’s White Tiger without consequence, but it also had the Sect Leader’s wife protecting it.
Even as an Exotic Beast, it could wreak havoc in Qingyuan Gate with impunity.
Green Snake nodded, her expression a bit sheepish, then suddenly realized, “You understand Beast Language?”
The chubby Taoist laughed and scanned the students, taking the opportunity to segway into today’s lesson.
“I am Ge Feng, just call me Fatty Senior Brother.
The cultivation technique I practice is named ‘Transforming Beast Guide’; with each Boundary Status, one acquires a beast form, hence I can understand Beast Language.”
He took a step forward, transformed in a swirl into a wild boar with fierce bristles and grinning fangs, and shattered a giant rock three zhang tall in the courtyard to dust.
He rolled through the dust swirling around and reverted back to the chubby Taoist.
He looked around, contentedly taking in the students’ shock.
Without disturbing them until they gradually came to their senses, he ascended the platform and began his lecture, “You have all embarked on the Taoist path, but do you know about the cultivation boundaries?”
An honest student raised his hand, “I heard from the old Taoist at the entrance of my village about Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Divine, Refining Spirit into Void …
and something else I’ve forgotten.”
Everyone laughed uproariously, another student commented jokingly, “That’s wrong!
Master said that the journey of cultivation has many levels, Qi training, Foundation Building, Golden Core …
tier by tier, boundary after boundary, endless and boundless!”
The listeners’ hearts filled with longing.
Yet another student countered, “But I’ve heard it referred to as ‘No Leak’, Sharira, Nirvana, and the like.”
Ge Feng didn’t interject, allowing them to speak their minds freely before he said, “What you all said is correct, yet also incorrect!
Some are fabrications of storytellers, and other old boundary divisions that cultivators have long since abandoned.
The path of cultivation from ancient times to the present has spanned countless aeons, changing day by day, ceaselessly evolving—how could there be fixed and unchanging boundaries?
Perhaps, as we converse, some Greater Power might have opened up an unknown Boundary Status in that Extremely Cold place in Nine Heavens.”
He put down his teacup, passionately saying, “The world is not what it once was; the division of boundaries naturally changes.
Today’s boundaries differ significantly from those of the Ancient Times.
But no matter what, the essence of cultivation is to discard the false and preserve the truth, seeking The Great Tao.
Regardless of the method of dividing boundaries, they all converge on the same path.
Find your own Tao and walk down it resolutely, without any hesitation!”
“Even if your path is untrodden, the long road ahead unknown!
Just like the Cultivation Beast Volume I practice, it was created by a Greater Power with immense determination and talent who imitated Divine God Beasts in the times before history, when the way of the Tao was severed.”
“Divine God Beasts?” someone exclaimed in astonishment.
They were all new disciples who had only seen the world upon entering Qingyuan Gate.
Fish that soared, birds that Controlled water, monkeys that burrowed through the earth…
unheard of.
Is this what Divine God Beasts are?
Everyone subconsciously looked towards Su He.
Ge Feng smiled and shook his head, “Ordinary people can’t see Divine God Beasts anymore.”
“Strictly speaking, our current cultivation is inspired by Divine God Beasts.” He pointed at his heart and projected his Mind Orifice.
It was a space of Mystery Yellow, with something floating up and down within it, but it was pixelated by him, unclear.
“In Ancient Times, people did not cultivate Mind Orifices.
The classification of Boundary Status back then is now untraceable.
All we know is that the Cultivation World once faced a crisis where the Tao path was severed.
At that time, a Greater Power discovered that Divine God Beasts purified their Bloodline and returned to their ancestors in their practice, introducing it to human cultivation.
This led to the current cultivation realms.”
“Transcendence, Demonic, and Stepping Sky are the three major realms of current cultivation.
There is no need to discuss the latter two since they are still far from us.
The Transcendence realm has seven steps: Opening Heart Apertures, Divine God Objects, True Blood, Intention Orifice, Offering Bones, Spirit Awakening, and Gathering Origin.
“There’s no need to mention the state of Mind Orifice, which you all must do, cultivate life nourishment, and temper the body.
When the body is tempered to the extreme, you can use the energy and blood to blast open the Mind Orifice.
The most important thing in the path of cultivation is the second part after blasting open the Mind Orifice, condensing the Heart Orifice Divine God Object!”
He pointed to the object in the projection of his Mind Orifice that was pixelated.
“Depending on different Cultivation Techniques and dispositions, different people can condense different Divine God Objects in their Mind Orifice, which is fundamental to cultivation!
This is also the most important knowledge humans have learned from Divine God Beasts.”
He pointed to the Green Snake and goat in the hall: “Actually, Demon Species do the same thing.
They consume Demonic Fruits and condense a human form in their Mind Orifice—strictly speaking, this is not human, but an Innate Taoist Body, one of the most suitable forms for cultivation in the world.
It’s just a coincidence that the Innate Taoist Body’s shape is that of human beings.”
“Humans themselves are Taoist bodies and do not need to take this extra step; in cultivation, they must condense the ‘Tao’ that best suits themselves in the Mind Orifice: Water, Fire, Lightning, Guns, Swords, and Halberds…”
The audience below was silent to the extreme, afraid to miss even a little detail.
Su He had already activated Turtle Mountain’s recording function and was recording everything.
Ge Feng spoke leisurely, “And this method of condensing ‘Tao’ in the Mind Orifice was first used by Divine God Beasts.
They condensed the form of their ancestors or a perfect Divine God Beast in their Mind Orifice, using the Tao Rhythm to purify their own Bloodline, stepping back to their ancestors, and even embarking on a path that transcends their forebears.”
“Therefore, beasts with Divine God Beast Bloodline, if they can open their Mind Orifices, will naturally have the Divine God shadow of their Bloodline’s origin.
Occasionally, if beasts consume Demonic Fruit but cannot transform into Demons, it’s because their Bloodline is noble, and in their Mind Orifice, the Innate Taoist Body is not human-shaped but that of a Divine God Beast!”
“The human form is the most suitable and most universal Taoist body, but it’s not the only one.
There are Dragon forms for snakes and fish, Phoenix forms for birds, and Qilin forms for other walking beasts.
Such beasts are rare as phoenix feathers and Qilin horns!”
Green Snake slowly turned her head to look at the stunned Su He, her eyes full of undisguised envy, “Turtle, Turtle!”
I thought you had eaten a defective Demonic Fruit, and pitifully couldn’t transform into a human.
Turns out, you were quietly walking down the road of the second-generation ancestor.
Although Ge Feng did not state it explicitly, Green Snake also realized that having a Divine God Beast ‘Tao’ in one’s Mind Orifice, like Su He, is most suitable for them.
And only because Green Snake did not have a fitting Divine God Beast for herself, she had to settle for the most common Innate Taoist Body.
She could potentially transform into a Dragon, but clearly, her Bloodline was not enough to activate the Divine God Beast Heritage.
“Divine God Beasts…” Green Snake murmured to herself.
Ge Feng chuckled, “Brother Green Snake need not mind, whether the Divine God Object in the Mind Orifice is human or Divine God Beast makes no difference in rank.
What is most suitable for oneself is the best.
Besides, the number of beasts that can transform into humans is already minimal, and those that become Divine God Beasts are even rarer in a millennium.
Rather than disturbing one’s Spirit with these thoughts, better to cultivate solidly and consolidate one’s Tao path.”
“None?” Green Snake lifted her head slightly, her eyes unfocused, her tail pointing at Su He, “Turtle!”
Ge Feng smiled, “I know this is a Turtle, a rare sight of a Big Turtle—Turtle…
Turtle!”
He suddenly realized, and in that instant, his voice broke.
