From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

In this classroom, cultivating would not attract too much attention from anyone.

After all, most of the students in the Cultivation System were also cultivating at this time, and the school was filled with all kinds of auras. Even if someone could sense him, they wouldn't be overly curious.

Cultivation was not just about sitting still and continuously absorbing nature's spiritual energy; it involved transforming the absorbed spiritual energy into one's own True Qi. This process required continuous extraction and refinement of spiritual energy to finally obtain one's own True Qi.

However, this process was extremely difficult, and many people would extract very little True Qi even after a day of cultivation.

After extracting and refining spiritual energy, the obtained True Qi was not only used to increase the capacity of one's Qi sea but also to temper one's meridians, body, Divine Sense, and to develop one's Spiritual Root.

This part of the process was even more difficult. For those practitioners with lower talent, just the extraction and refinement of spiritual energy were hard enough; to do the remaining tasks was even more arduous. Hence, some people could never break through the Yuanxin Realm and would remain in the Realm of Intense Concentration for their entire lives.

...

About ten minutes had passed when suddenly, the Spiritual Root within Fang Ren trembled violently, signaling an impending breakthrough.

He immediately ceased absorbing spiritual energy from the world and focused more attention on his Spiritual Root and his own body.

Another ten or so minutes passed.

Hum——

Suddenly, a burst of grey mist erupted from Fang Ren's body and surged outward, causing all the desks and chairs in the class to start whirling about.

Xiao Yuan immediately opened its eyes, and countless branches surged from the halo above its head, pulling down the swirling chairs and desks. It feared that if the desks and chairs flew out of the windows and made loud noises, they would attract people inside who might disturb Fang Ren's cultivation.

As the mist faded, the spiritual energy around Fang Ren's body became purer, and a new meridian extending from his Spiritual Root attached itself to his heart.

This was a fundamental characteristic of a practitioner who had entered the Yuanxin Realm.

The meridian attached to the heart seemed fine and lacked the robust continuous flow of the main meridian, but it was the essential path every practitioner must take to begin cultivating Divine Sense.

This was precisely why Mu Huanqing, despite losing her cultivation level, could still terrify lower-level practitioners into wetting their pants just with her presence.

It was mainly because her Divine Sense, cultivated through this meridian, was incredibly powerful; even after losing her cultivation level and with a significant reduction in Divine Sense, she commanded a power unapproachable by ordinary people.

After breaking through to the Yuanxin Realm, Fang Ren did not stop there. The effects of the Heavenly Spirit Pill still had about thirty minutes, and he could not afford to waste this time.

Over the next thirty minutes, the speed of True Qi flow in his meridians began to quicken, and around his body, faint spots of grey light started to twinkle.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan's eyes shone with excitement, and its small face couldn't hide its joy as it bounced twice, then leaped onto Fang Ren's head.

This time, instead of sitting on Fang Ren's head to meditate with its eyes closed, it expanded the halo above its head, from which grey brilliance constantly fell. These bits of light continually merged into the faint glimmers surrounding Fang Ren's body, steadily enhancing them.

The entire classroom began to fill with an invisible pressure, and the desks and chairs held by Xiao Yuan's branches began to twist and warp under this force. Cracks appeared on the walls, and the glass on the windows did not shatter but curled like plastic exposed to high heat.

Soon, thirty minutes had passed.

When Fang Ren opened his eyes again, the meridian patterns that had surfaced on his body instantly disappeared, and the invisible pressure that had filled the classroom was absorbed back into his body as he opened his eyes.

He looked at his hands in shock, feeling the changes in his Divine Sense. It felt like an uncontrollable torrent, filled with destructive power.

"Yuanxin Realm... Peak..."

Fang Ren was completely dumbfounded.

In just one short hour, he had leaped from the peak of the Intense Concentration Realm straight to the peak of the Yuanxin Realm, crossing an entire major realm!

Chongshan Realm, he was now just one major realm plus a minor realm away from the Chongshan Realm! It was so close!

If he could take one more step forward from this foundation, he would already be at the early stage of the Ruoshui Realm.

The early stage of the Ruoshui Realm, just one major realm away from the Chongshan Realm...

He still had two years left, and as long as he broke through one major realm within these two years, he could meet Mu Qing Mountain's requirements and then gain another five years for cultivation.

"Cultivation... Is it too easy?" he mused to himself in a daze.

"Hee-ha!"

At that moment, the little creature above his head immediately jumped down and looked at him seriously, waving its spherical arms in the air and beginning to chirp and babble about something.

It seemed to be reprimanding his current attitude toward cultivation.

Fang Ren looked at it act this way and nodded as he said, "I know I still have a long road ahead and will not become complacent."

"Hei ha hei ha!"

Little Qianye stretched out another branch from above her head, pulled a twisted desk closer, and swiftly carved a row of characters on the wood.

Fang Ren leaned over to look and saw six words written: The quicker the cultivation, the more bitterness.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of hardship," Fang Ren said.

"Hei ha!"

Little Qianye immediately shook her head and wrote a few more words on the desk: Cultivation is bitter, but not the suffering of body and mind.

Fang Ren furrowed his brow and muttered to himself after a while, "That makes sense. Although my cultivation level is rising quickly, I've only experienced the initial hardships of the Asura Path. I haven't truly stepped onto the path of slaughter; up to now, I haven't killed a single person and haven't tasted the flavor of taking a life."

After hearing what he said, Little Qianye revealed a satisfied expression on her round face and nodded, looking as if she thought, "This child is teachable."

"You really know a lot."

Fang Ren plucked her onto his palm, rubbing her head continuously with his hand, a smile on his face: "I thought you were just about to explain to me what a Sacred Body is, write it down."

Little Qianye once again began to carve with a twig on the desk nearby, etching out a row of words: Body harbors the sacred spirit, meridians connected between heaven and earth, born without True Qi for cultivation, entering the path through the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, without attributes, the Qi connects heaven and earth, creation limitless.

"Damn," Fang Ren said after reading, his face filled with stupor, "I don't fully understand it, but it sounds freaking awesome…"

Continuing to write on the desk, Little Qianye added: Before the sacred spirit matures, one must not conceive; otherwise, the sacred spirit will disperse into heaven and earth, the essence turning into blood for the fetus, imparting great innate talent, yet without the spirit of the Sacred Body, giving birth to a child before maturity will result in a useless body.

"Is that everything?" Fang Ren asked.

Little Qianye pulled back her branch and nodded in front of him.

Fang Ren sat on a twisted stool, his eyebrows deeply furrowed as he studied the small characters Little Qianye had carved into the desk, trying to understand their meaning.

After a while, Fang Ren tried to say, "Does it mean that the Spirit Embryo inside her is what you referred to as the sacred spirit?"

"Hei ha!"

Little Qianye nodded vigorously.

"This constitution can't cultivate True Qi, I can understand this part. But meridians connected between heaven and earth, and entering the great path through heaven and earth's spiritual energy... I don't get it. She has no meridians inside or outside her body, so how can it be connected between heaven and earth?"

Fang Ren shook his head and continued, "This Qi connecting heaven and earth and creation being limitless also sounds... too exaggerated. If it's really that powerful, wouldn't it be stronger than Qing'er?

As for the last part you wrote, it's easier to understand; it means the Spirit Embryo must not become pregnant before it has matured, for if it does, the Spirit Embryo will disperse, and although the fetus will absorb some of the Spirit Embryo's foundational talent and become very strong, its constitution will be ruined by the foundation of the Spirit Embryo.

In other words, this constitution shouldn't be deflowered before maturity, right?"

"Hei ha hei ha!"

Little Qianye nodded again.

After reading, Fang Ren felt a twinge of frustration. The ignorance of the world had no doubt buried many women with the Spiritual Embryo Constitution.

But there was no helping it—if Qianye hadn't told him, he would still be as ignorant about this constitution as everyone else.

"If this matter were made public, Liu Qianqian wouldn't need to go through all the trouble of learning alchemy, right?" Fang Ren mused to himself.

"Hei ha hei ha…"

Little Qianye's voice deepened, and she shook her head at him as if to say, even if you tell them, no one will believe it.

Fang Ren laughed and took out his cell phone from his pocket: "If these words were to come from my mouth, everyone would surely think I'm a lunatic, but coming from Master Qingan's mouth, people would give it a lot of thought."

Little Qianye stood on the ground, looking bewildered at him, having never seen Fang Ren log into the Alchemists' forum account since her appearance.

Fang Ren opened the forum and took out a small electronic chip from behind his phone case, inserting it into the slot on the side of his phone.

This small electronic chip was a signal-blocking device he had obtained from a hacker in exchange for a fourth-order elixir. He went to great lengths to make some modifications to it. Now, it could not only block all local information from his phone but also falsify his location.

After all, every thesis he posted would stun the Alchemy Grandmasters in district one for days, and the higher-ups would certainly use all means to find him.

He wasn't a fool to dare to post such things with just any account. Naturally, everything had been thoroughly considered before he created the Master Qingan account.

After inserting the interference chip into his cellphone, Fang Ren moved the desk with the inscriptions Little Qianye made to a dark corner.

"Qianye, come over and give me a hand."
