Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 1150: Chapter 396 – Subduing the Star Realm, Three Hua Condensation at the Apex!_3

[In the year 330, the Immortal Boat successfully arrived in the Heavenly Secrets Realm.]

[Because you actively opposed the Foreign Race, you gained favor from Emperor Bai, who thus decided to make time to guide your swordsmanship.]

In the real world, Su Xing’s eyes brightened at this sight.

“It seems that not using the immersive simulation in advance was the right move!”

“If Emperor Bai personally instructs me, combined with the Enlightenment Tea… my swordsmanship cultivation speed will definitely increase by leaps and bounds!”

“Stepping into the Fifth Realm of Sword Dao is no longer just a dream!”

Thinking of this, Su Xing silently said:

“Activate immersive simulation for a duration of 70 years!”

[Ding…Remaining Origin Energy Source points 6,843,657…]

After the notification sound, Su Xing’s consciousness entered the Simulated World.

…

In the Heavenly Secrets Realm, atop a certain mountain peak.

Su Xing looked at the figure in front of him clad in white, holding a Wooden Sword.

“So, are you ready… to seek guidance in the Sword Dao from me?”

“But let me say this in advance… I do not accept disciples, I will merely give you a few pointers!”

Emperor Bai said lazily while fiddling with the Wooden Sword in his hands.

Su Xing nodded after hearing this; getting pointers from Emperor Bai was already quite fortunate.

“Are you prepared?” Emperor Bai looked at Su Xing and asked.

This Daluo Golden Immortal truly admired Su Xing, this young man, from the bottom of his heart.

Not only was he highly talented and possessed a good temperament, damn, he was also good-looking!

If it weren’t for this, Emperor Bai wouldn’t be willing to personally provide guidance.

Countless Taiyi Golden Immortals could only dream of receiving a single move or half a technique from Emperor Bai, yet it was out of their reach.

Su Xing was aware of the preciousness of this guidance, so he took out a cup of pre-brewed Enlightenment Tea, drank a small sip, and felt a great enhancement of his comprehension.

“Senior, then I shall start to demonstrate my Sword Dao…”

Just as Su Xing was speaking, Emperor Bai suddenly widened his eyes.

“Enlightenment Tea? Damn, how do you have such a treasure?”

Emperor Bai swallowed hard, nowhere resembling a Daluo Golden Immortal, the number one Sword Immortal of the era.

Even for a Daluo Golden Immortal, Enlightenment Tea was a rare treasure.

Not only because it greatly enhanced the speed of comprehension, but also because the tea… had a bitter start followed by a sweet aftertaste, an endless delight!

But Emperor Bai was only slightly envious.

Given his lofty status as a Daluo Golden Immortal, he wouldn’t snatch a cup of Enlightenment Tea from Su Xing.

So, Su Xing began to demonstrate his Sword Dao.

From the simplest Sword Moves, to the Three Talents Sword Technique encompassing heaven, earth, and man… then to the Sword Qi honed from slaughtering millions of the Foreign Race and leveling mountains.

From the Body-Protecting Sword Aura… to the Void Sword, to Su Xing’s “Assured Sword Intent,” all were vividly displayed before Emperor Bai.

Although Emperor Bai had superb swordsmanship, he didn’t put on any airs as a Daluo Golden Immortal.

When instructing Su Xing in swordsmanship, Emperor Bai didn’t just imbue him with his own Sword Dao.

It was more like an exchange…

Using his millions of years of experience to instruct Su Xing, allowing him to advance further on the path of the Sword Dao.

The entire process was exceedingly effortless for Su Xing.

The occasional collision of their Sword Daos and the resulting sparks of inspiration were greatly enlightening for Su Xing.

Moreover, after drinking the Enlightenment Tea, Su Xing’s comprehension had significantly improved. Combined with his Innate Sword Body, it allowed him to infer other principles with ease, readily grasping the teachings of Emperor Bai.

…

Time flew by; seventy years passed in a blink.

During these seventy years, Su Xing was not always discussing swordsmanship with Emperor Bai.

Most of the time, Su Xing was researching on his own.

However, whenever he had doubts, Su Xing would always seek out Emperor Bai to ask for guidance.

Under such circumstances, Su Xing’s understanding of the Sword Dao rapidly improved.

In just seventy years, Su Xing stepped from the entry level of the Fourth Realm of the Sword Dao straight to the Great Achievement!

That day, Su Xing calculated that the immersive simulation was about to end.

Thus, he wished to ask Emperor Bai a few questions that were in his heart.

“Emperor Bai, may I dare to ask which Realm your Sword Dao has reached?”

After hearing Su Xing’s words, Emperor Bai laughed and said:

“There are eight Realms in the Great Dao overall… the Eighth Realm is where the Dao integrates into the body, and one Becomes a Saint through the Dao… a cultivator capable of reaching the Eighth Realm can be called a Saint!”

“As for me, I am merely a Daluo Golden Immortal, so which Realm do you think I’m in?”

Upon hearing Emperor Bai’s words, Su Xing understood his intention.

In this vast world, only a Daluo Golden Immortal who steps into a certain Eighth Realm of the Great Dao can become a Saint!

Below the Saints, the Seventh Realm represents… the Great Dao Achieved!

As the number one Sword Cultivator in the Three Thousand Worlds, Emperor Bai must have reached the Peak of the Seventh Realm of the Great Dao…

But he hasn’t reached the Eighth Realm!

“Emperor Bai, the number one person in Sword Dao across the Three Thousand Worlds!”

Su Xing felt deeply moved in his heart and thought to himself.

Seeing Su Xing’s expression, Emperor Bai knew that he had understood.

But when he saw that Su Xing remained silent, he thought that Su Xing might feel disheartened knowing his high Realm, so he consoled him:

“Cough cough, you are still young!”

“When your lordship was at your age, my swordsmanship was not as good as yours!”

“And now you have achieved Great Achievement in the Fourth Realm of the Sword Dao… you are not far from the Fifth Realm!”

“With your age and talent, how many in this world can compare?”

Unaware of Su Xing’s actual age and assuming he was not over a hundred thousand years old, Emperor Bai continued.

After hearing Emperor Bai’s words, Su Xing didn’t explain further but solemnly gave Emperor Bai a bow and said:

“Emperor Bai, I am grateful for your guidance during this time… in the future, I shall expel the Foreign Race and restore peace to the Three Thousand Worlds!”

Hearing Su Xing’s words, Emperor Bai rolled his eyes and said:

“Hey, good lad… you’ve got quite the ambition!”

“Even your lordship does not dare claim that I can expel the Foreign Race…”
