Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand

Bai Yun's mind moved, and the space around the three people twisted. When they came to their senses, they found that they were already in a secret realm of time.

“Zhao Yun, Nasus, you have just realized your own path! But you still need to think carefully about how to proceed! After all, creating the supreme path is not a matter of a day or a night. You are pioneers, and the road ahead is bound to be full of thorns. Therefore, we must carefully deduce and think over every step!”

Bai Zhaoyun and Nasus looked at each other and nodded seriously. They understood Bai Yun’s good intentions.

“Nasus,” Bai Yun turned to Nasus and his tone became serious. “Your martial arts has chosen the path of breaking all laws with one force. This path is not unique, and it cannot be called a self-created system. It’s just that we lack the inheritance.

But what is certain is that this road is paved with footprints of predecessors. In the past, there were many martial arts ascenders from small and medium planes in the God Realm. This was not a big secret in the God Realm.

After saying that, Bai Yun turned to Bai Zhaoyun, his tone more serious, "Zhaoyun, although I have deduced your immortal cultivation system countless times and confirmed that it is feasible, this is after all like crossing a river by feeling the stones, and the road ahead is unknown.

Once you make a mistake, the consequences will be disastrous! Therefore, every step you take needs to be repeatedly deduced and confirmed before you can practice. You can’t just experiment on yourself anymore!”

"Well," Bai Zhaoyun nodded, "Then I will first tell you the experience I have deduced from my cultivation over the past three years, and you can help me deduce and improve it."

"Yes." Bai Zhaoyun nodded seriously and said solemnly: "In this case, I will elaborate on my experience in deducing the cultivation system over the past three years. I hope you can help me deduce and improve it."

He paused, frowning slightly, as if he was organizing his words. After a moment, he continued, "First of all, I don't have a real body. In essence, I am still just a soul body, lacking a real physical body. Therefore, the cultivation system I conceived is not a traditional method of cultivating immortals, but is based on runes and guided by the soul to create an unprecedented path."

Bai Zhaoyun took a deep breath and his tone became more serious: "After countless deductions and attempts, I found that although the power of runes is fundamentally different from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, its operating rules are similar to those of meridians. Therefore, I boldly tried to simulate meridians with runes and construct a unique cultivation system."

He pointed to the first rune floating in front of him and said in a deep voice: "I call this rune 'Spiritual Pivot'. It is derived from the Spirit Gathering Rune. Its function is similar to that of a cultivator's Dantian. It can automatically absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Of course, we all know that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is impure and will damage the soul if it is not refined."

Bai Zhaoyun pointed to the second rune and explained, "I call this rune 'Spiritual Analysis'. Its function is to filter out the spiritual energy that conflicts with my soul attributes, leaving only the pure part."

He then pointed to the third rune and said, "I call this rune 'Spiritual Extraction'. As the name suggests, its function is to further purify the refined spiritual energy and transform it into energy that I can absorb."

Bai Zhaoyun pointed to the fourth rune and explained, "I call this rune the 'spiritual vein'. It functions similarly to the meridians of a cultivator. It can store refined spiritual energy for my cultivation."

He paused, glanced at Bai Yun and Nasus, and said in a deep voice: "Each of the runes that follow has its own unique function. They are linked together to form the basic framework of the cultivation system I have conceived."

Bai Zhaoyun explained to Bai Yun and Nasus every process of the rune meridian route he constructed, no matter how big or small.

Bai Yun held his chin and listened carefully to Bai Zhaoyun's explanation. He memorized the effect of each rune and the route of each energy flow carefully, and combined with the cultivation system he knew, he constantly deduced and simulated them in his mind.

Although Nasus didn’t know much about the Way of Runes, he listened very carefully and occasionally raised some questions of his own, such as: “Why are the runes arranged like this? Can we arrange them in a different way?”

Bai Zhaoyun would patiently explain: "I have tried many ways of arrangement before, but only this way can maximize the power of the rune without causing energy conflicts."

As Bai Yun listened, he constructed a model of Bai Zhaoyun's rune system in his mind, and as Bai Zhaoyun explained, the model gradually became more complete.

"Wait," Bai Yun suddenly interrupted Bai Zhaoyun, "You said here that the third rune can directly refine spiritual energy?"

"Yes," Bai Zhaoyun nodded, "Any questions?"

"I don't think we can refine spiritual energy directly here," Bai Yun frowned slightly, "It still needs a buffering process."

"Buffer?" Bai Zhaoyun asked in confusion, "Why do we need buffer?"

"Think about it," Bai Yun explained, "Although the spiritual energy you absorbed has been filtered by the second rune, the energy contained in it is still very violent. If you refine it directly, it will be too much of a burden on your soul body. In the long run, your soul body may not be able to bear it, or even collapse."

"What should we do then?" Bai Zhaoyun suddenly became nervous. After all, the soul body is extremely fragile.

Bai Yun pondered for a moment and said, "I suggest you add another rune between the second rune and the third rune. The function of this rune is to compress and purify the filtered spiritual energy. This will not only reduce the difficulty of refining, but also increase the purity of the spiritual energy, allowing you to practice faster."

"That's right!" Bai Zhaoyun slapped his forehead and suddenly realized, "Why didn't I think of it!"

Nasus had been listening quietly. Although he knew little about runes, his knowledge and experience regarding the soul were unmatched. He keenly caught Bai Yun's mention of the "burden of the soul" and "collapse of the soul", which were described in detail in the remaining knowledge of his death godhead.

Nasus continued, “Zhao Yun, although I do not understand the way of runes, I know that any improvement in power must be gradual. The same is true for the soul. Excessive energy shock will cause irreversible damage to the soul.”

He paused, as if organizing his words, and then continued, "I suggest that while you compress and purify your spiritual energy, you should also focus on nourishing your soul. Perhaps you can look for some natural treasures that contain soul energy, or study some runes that can nourish the soul."

Bai Zhaoyun listened very carefully. He had never thought that practicing runes also required considering the nourishment of the soul.

In his opinion, the soul was an illusory thing, far less real than the power of runes. But Nasus's reminder made him realize that the soul was the foundation, and if the power of the soul was ignored, no matter how powerful the runes were, it would be useless.

"I understand," Bai Zhaoyun said gratefully, "I will seriously consider your suggestion. While practicing runes to replace the meridians, I will also focus on the cultivation of the soul."

Bai Yun also nodded and said, "Nasus is right. In the path of cultivation, one should not rush for quick success and instant benefits. One should focus on balance to go further."

In this way, with the help of Bai Yun and Nasus, Bai Zhaoyun's rune cultivation system continued to improve, becoming more and more complete and more and more powerful.
