The Mortal Immortal

Shu Han stood on the top of the mountain and saw countless thousand-foot-high towers scattered on the vast plain.

Gray mist flowed at the bottom of the tower, and dim black light diffused at the top of the tower. This scene was like a cemetery in a gloomy sky, and each thousand-foot-high tower was a tombstone.

Shu Han looked far away. Some of these towers were straight, some were tilted, and some were collapsed. The whole world was sparsely populated and a wasteland.

He felt that these towers were familiar, and suddenly he remembered the Babel Tower in the Great Nirvana City. The structure of these towers seemed to be similar to the Babel Tower in the Great Nirvana City. The difference is that each of these towers is more majestic than the Babel Tower in the Great Nirvana City.

Shu Han murmured, "You said we are on the Hell Road. What is the Hell Road? What are these towers?"

Yu Xiuyun explained, "The so-called Hell Road is the name we give to the first level of the Trial Road. As for why it is called the Hell Road, to be honest, it is now impossible to investigate. We only know that it has been called this way since ancient times, and no one has investigated the origin. As for these towers, although you are not from Yingtian Realm, you have also seen the Tongtian Tower in Da Nirvana City."

Shu Han was stunned, pointed to the towers in front of him, and asked in surprise, "Are these really Tongtian Towers?"

Yu Xiuyun nodded and said, "Yes, in essence, these towers are no different from the Tongtian Towers in my Da Nirvana City. But the difference is that these Tongtian Towers are at a higher level. The Tongtian Tower in Da Nirvana City is the highest to the late stage of foundation building, while here it is generally the late stage of Jindan."

Shu Han helped Luo Junli fight the Tongtian Tower. The Tongtian Tower is a place for cultivators to hone their skills in battle. A cultivator in the late stage of foundation building like Luo Junli can pass through the Tongtian Tower. According to Yu Xiuyun, if you want to pass these Tongtian Towers, you must have the strength of the late stage of Jindan.

Yu Xiuyun continued to explain: "It is said that before the alien world invaded our Yingtian Realm, this was the place where our clan's masters were cultivated. Each Tongtian Tower gave birth to countless late-stage Jindan cultivators. The Yingtian Realm back then was much more prosperous than it is now."

Shu Han nodded. Looking at so many densely abandoned Tongtian Towers, he could also glimpse the heyday of the Yingtian Clan back then.

Shu Han then asked: "How can I improve my cultivation in this hell road?"

Yu Xiuyun pointed to the Tongtian Tower in front of her and said: "The secret is in this Tongtian Tower." She explained: "When the alien world invaded, this place was the frontier against the alien world. All the predecessors who were tested in the Tongtian Tower fought a desperate battle with the alien race. After they died in battle, the fighting spirits returned to the Tongtian Tower, guarding the former glory of the Yingtian Clan for generations, waiting for the younger generations of the Yingtian Clan to visit and take over their mission. At the same time, they will also receive their lifelong enlightenment."

Fighting spirits?

Shu Han was speechless. When will the spirits of cultivators who died in battle be left behind?

I have killed many people in the Jindan stage, but there are no heroic souls left! How can they remain for so long!

Although he had doubts in his heart, Shu Han was still moved by Yu Xiuyun's words. These fighting heroic souls actually contain the insights of the deceased before they died! Now Shu Han has already completed the cultivation of the initial stage, and he only lacks the insights of the middle Jindan stage to advance to the middle Jindan stage.

If this insight is to be accumulated by oneself, it is hard to say how long it will take. It is best to get the insights of other people's spirits as a reference.

"No wonder you Yingtian people can improve your cultivation so quickly, it turns out that you are standing on the shoulders of your predecessors! Big-breasted girl, if I get the lifelong insights of a late-stage cultivator, do I not need to accumulate realm insights until the late stage?"

Yu Xiuyun shook her head: "Of course not, due to the long history, the insights of the spirits left by the ancestors are already incomplete. Let alone you get the spirits of a late-stage Jindan cultivator, even if you get a Yuanying cultivator, it will never be a permanent solution in the future. Moreover, everyone's path is different. The insights of the ancestors can only be used as a reference for you to speed up your own insights, and cannot completely replace them."

Shu Han nodded, agreeing with Yu Xiuyun's words in his heart.

His Jindan Road is different from others. Because of the limitation of spiritual roots, other cultivators can cultivate two or three of the five elements in the Jindan, which is already very good. However, Shu Han's Jindan has a complete five elements of yin and yang, and the insights required are more than ordinary cultivators.

Shu Han thought that one or two spirits were not enough, so couldn't he get more spirits for reference and reference? So he asked: "Since the soul perception can speed up the perception of one's own realm, then if we get more souls of our ancestors, can we understand our own realm faster?"

Yu Xiuyun nodded: "Yes, we actually do the same. If you have the ability, it's no problem to get as many souls of our ancestors as you want. It's just that the souls of our ancestors are not so easy to get."

Shu Han disagreed. He thought, they are just some residual souls of the Jindan stage, what's there to be afraid of! With my current strength, if I take it seriously, I can deal with them as if they were really resurrected.

"Why do you say that? No matter how powerful our ancestors were in the past, they are only a remnant soul now. How difficult is it to subdue the remnant soul?"

Yu Xiuyun shook her head, looked at the Tongtian Tower in the distance and said: "If you and I can use all our strength, it is indeed not difficult to subdue the remnant souls of our ancestors. But to subdue the remnant souls of our ancestors in these Tongtian Towers, we must actively absorb them into the sea of ​​consciousness and use our own soul to fight against the remnant souls of our ancestors. Only when the soul defeats the remnant souls of our ancestors can we obtain the inheritance of our predecessors. It is doomed to be futile to think of other ways."

Open the sea of ​​consciousness? Absorb the remnant soul? Soul battle?

Shu Han was shocked. This is a joke!

The soul is the foundation of a monk. Once the soul is damaged, the consciousness will be turbulent and the state will be unstable. At worst, the body will die and the body will become a walking corpse. Moreover, if you fight with your soul, the monk's magic weapon and other external objects can no longer be used. The strength of the monks will be greatly reduced.

Especially for monks like Shu Han, whose combat power is entirely composed of physical body and magic weapons. Without these two, Shu Han's strength will be greatly reduced.

"This is too dangerous!"

Yu Xiuyun saw Shu Han's expression change slightly and chuckled: "What are you afraid of? Our ancestors mainly test us. If we are defeated, the remnant souls of our ancestors will not be cruel. At most, it will cause a short-term spiritual turmoil. There would be too many safety hazards.”

Upon hearing this, Shu Han immediately retorted: "What you said is nice, that's the ancestor of your Yingtian clan, and I'm not from the Yingtian clan!"

As soon as these words came out, Yu Xiuyun was silent for a long time.

She murmured: "That's right. If the remnant souls of our ancestors sense that you are different from our clan, they might treat you as an enemy from another world... It's okay! Let's do it bit by bit. You are also unusual. As long as you don’t aim too high, you should be fine as an alchemy monk!”

Listening to Yu Xiuyun muttering to himself, Shu Han was trembling in his heart: "Your words are not comforting at all!"
