Marvel Immortals in Asgard

Carl looked at Howard and said, "I can understand why you want to learn to cultivate immortality. You see that we are all willing to spend decades studying hard, so you understand the power of the knowledge contained in it, right?"

Howard did not shy away and said: "Yes, boss, since you have spent so much money to cultivate immortality, it is obvious that cultivating immortality has benefits that magic cannot match, and the knowledge contained in it must be far more profound than magic."

Karl nodded and said: "Yes, the knowledge you need to learn to cultivate immortality is indeed very powerful, but you really have no possibility of learning. There are too many reasons in between, and you may not understand many things."

Howard asked at this time: "Boss, can you tell me the reason? I want to see if I can achieve it."

Karl thought for a while and said: "Okay, first of all, the first point is culture. The exercises we learned come from the Eastern Heaven. These immortal cultivation methods are basically based on Eastern culture. Do you understand Eastern culture? I can tell you You, you need to have a deep understanding of Eastern culture before you can possibly learn the true cultivation techniques of immortality."

Looking at Howard's puzzled face, Karl continued to explain: "There is no way around it. Both your English and our Asgardian language are phonetic characters, and the Eastern ones are ideographic characters. The Eastern ones are Language cannot be expressed in our words, so it can be said that the translation will be wrong."

"Of course, it is possible to translate the simple truth, but that will also lose the connotation of the original words. Therefore, when we study to cultivate immortality, we spend a lot of time learning Eastern languages ​​and characters. We have learned dozens of words alone. It includes ordinary characters and mysterious characters, so the difficulty can be imagined."

Howard said disapprovingly: "Boss, I think I can do all of this. I have a photographic memory."

Karl nodded and said: "It can be done. Just like us, it took decades. This is just one reason. As long as you can spend decades, you can naturally meet the requirements and understand the cultural connotation."

"But there is one thing that you can't overcome now, that is, cultivating immortals requires too much energy. If you only rely on yourself to practice, even under the best energy environment, there is no possibility for you to form a golden elixir. "

Howard asked in surprise: "Boss, is it impossible to stay under the metal sheet you gave me and then stay in the formation environment you arranged on the earth? There is rich magical energy there."

Karl sighed: "Do you know the news about Eastern China? 50 years ago, many people there were given the magic book I gave you to study. They were able to use the magical power they gained from practicing to cultivate immortality, but you may not You know, most of the people who accepted my books back then are dead now, do you know why?"

Howard asked: "Why? I read that Chinese legends about cultivating immortals are all about immortality."

Karl nodded and said: "Yes, you can live forever, but those are the effects that can only be achieved by those who are successful in cultivating immortals. For example, the first step of cultivating immortals is to practice self-cleansing. After completing this step, it is difficult for ordinary people to live to be a hundred years old. The second step of foundation building is just to live the 120 years that a person could have lived to the end of his life."

"Of course there are people who live longer, but they only live another 20 years. It is almost impossible to think of 150 years old, let alone immortality. Although those people have the magic books I gave them, most of them have not completed the foundation building. , there are only a few people who can complete the foundation building, I think you should understand how difficult it is to become an immortal, right?"

"The next two realms are to open up the Dantian and reserve the three energies of essence, energy and spirit. Each step completed only adds about 30 years to the life span. Before forming the elixir, it is basically the life span of San Jiazi of 180 years. Of course, there may be special skills. It can achieve more lifespans, but few can exceed four decades, 240 years."

"As for the golden elixir, of course it can live longer, but generally it is between 360 and 540 years. But do you know how much energy it takes to condense the golden elixir? I think you have no idea at all."

When Howard heard this, he quickly asked: "Boss, how much energy is needed? It won't be too much, right?"

Karl smiled and said: "Not too much? You are thinking too well. I can tell you so that you can give up. It is introduced in the exercise. The normal golden elixir weighs one pound. According to ancient Chinese standards, one pound is about Six hundred grams.”

"Golden elixir is a special active substance that can be completely converted into energy. I have made speculation based on the results of all of us' practice. It probably conforms to the mass-energy equation. What do you think we should do to reserve so much energy?"

Howard was stunned and said: "How could it require so much energy? This is incredible."

Karl sighed: "It requires so much energy. We checked the classics and saw an example of condensing golden elixir from millet rice. That kind of golden elixir is obviously too different, but even if that kind of golden elixir only has one gram, How much energy is needed? This is not something you can achieve through meditation, so cultivating you simply cannot satisfy your need for cultivating an immortal."

Howard frowned and said, "So, the only people who can cultivate immortality are high-level gods."

Karl shook his head and said: "That's not true. Our high-ranking gods in Asgard are very powerful. Just like Thor, if he were to attack with all his strength, although he has not yet reached the Heavenly Father level, his destructive power is no less than It’s a nuclear bomb. And Hela, Artemis, Brünnhilde, and Fulla are humanoid nuclear bombs.”

"But cultivating immortals obviously does not necessarily require such a powerful god. We ordinary people in Asgard are also qualified to cultivate immortals. The reason is very simple. The life span of us Asgardians is too long. Ordinary people have no less than 5000 With a lifespan of several years, as I am now, basically living tens of thousands of years is not a problem."

"Even ordinary people in Asgard, although we may not have much supply of divine power, as long as we practice hard, we are guaranteed to cultivate the golden elixir within 1000 years. As long as we cultivate the golden elixir, we will have a life span of at least tens of thousands of years. According to my estimation, as long as nothing goes wrong, we Asgardians can ascend within tens of thousands of years."

Howard looked shocked at this time, and after a long while he said: "How is this possible?"

Karl smiled and said: "Of course it is possible. We Asgard have unique advantages. If there is no problem with the supply of divine power, then basically the formation of pills can be completed within a hundred years. This is the gap. I think with your intelligence, we should Understand what is important and what is important, becoming an Asgardian is the only way for you to pursue higher heights."

"Thinking about the magic power you have accumulated over the years, how many years do you think it will take for you to reach the level of pill formation? I think you must have tested your total magic power, right? What is your approximate quality level?"

Howard was silent for a long time and said, "Then I'd better study magic with peace of mind and try to join Asgard."

Karl nodded and said: "As long as you understand, cultivation is the most inadvertent thing. If you do it, you will only delay yourself. The energy of the complete transformation of six hundred grams of matter. To be honest, apart from becoming an Asgardian, there is no other way. It's impossible to achieve it by practicing magic, but if you join Asgard, the base is 1000 years, but this time can be reduced."

Howard heard this and asked in surprise: "Boss, is there any way to reduce this?"

Karl nodded and said: "Of course it can be reduced. Just like me, I was originally an ordinary Asgardian, but now judging from the speed at which I accumulate energy, I can basically form a pill in half a century."

Howard was surprised and said: "Is there any secret in this? Can you tell me?"

Karl nodded and talked about the mark, and then continued: "In addition to this, there is another reason, and that is an important ability of immortal cultivators, which is alchemy. The effects of elixirs are all kinds of strange, but when used comprehensively, It can save at least [-] to [-]% of our time, and this is one of the reasons."

Howard nodded after hearing this, his eyes were filled with glints. It was obvious that he was very tempted, but after just a moment, he changed his look of embarrassment. Carl watched Howard's changing expression with interest, wanting to see what he had done. Why is it so difficult? You know Howard is a very cool person. Could it be that he is thinking about his unborn son?

For a long time, Howard asked: "Well, can I bring one person to join Asgard? How about using my future contribution in exchange for the opportunity of two people? I think I will definitely be able to make a huge contribution to Asgard. .”

When Karl heard this, he smiled and said: "Are you talking about your future son? Tony should not need your help. If he wants to join Asgard by then, I think with his intelligence, he will definitely be able to join by himself. "

Howard immediately shook his head and said, "Of course not, that...that I'm talking about is someone else."

Carl understood immediately. He was still wondering what could embarrass Howard. It turned out to be this. Think about it, Howard was about to get married at this time, because in the movie Avengers: Endgame, it was clearly stated that in 1970, Tony Smith Tucker was born, and obviously now Howard had a true love, that Maria.

Karl smiled and said: "Of course, if I agree to your conditions, I will not let you and your husband be separated. When will you get married?"

Howard looked embarrassed at this time and didn't know what to say. He said sarcastically: "It hasn't been decided yet."
