Chapter 85: People and People, People and Things

The red sun had just risen from the eastern horizon when Xiang Cai returned to Xiang Jiawan.

On the way down the mountain, he was agitated, and the sky was bright, so he walked quickly.

Compared to when he went there, he saved more than half of the time.

From afar, he saw his big brother, Xiang Yan, and a few older men who were tempering their bodies in the Xiang Jiawan Valley Field, as well as his father, Xiang De, who was supervising them from the side.

He walked over happily with a skip in his step.

“Xiang Cai, how was it? You were deceived, right?”

Seeing his brother return, Xiang Yan stopped his body-tempering moves and asked with a smile.

Xiang De, on the other hand, snorted coldly beside them. He seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Xiang Cai wasting his morning body-tempering time.

Per Xiang Cai’s usual character, he would definitely be agitatedly refuting his eldest brother’s accusations against him.

However, he did not think much of it now. He did not take what he said to heart. He calmly smiled and did not answer his big brother’s question.

He directly told him what the senior said today, but he was secretly muttering in his heart.

“In the past, when my father told me to be calm and collected, I couldn’t do it at all. But now, I’ve done naturally it.”

“In the end, it’s still because of this matter. I believe that the truth lies with me, so I have the confidence to stay calm.”

Xiang Cai’s family name could not be compared to that of a cultivator in the Pulse Realm. Therefore, he only remembered a small part of the cultivation talk, and he even made it sound incoherent.

Even so, Xiang De, Xiang Yan, and the others were moved by what they heard.

It was very simple to determine that it was many times better than the Daoist magic jade slips that they had bought in the shops in the city!

“Brother, elder brother wronged you. I am here to apologize to you,” Xiang Yan sincerely apologized.

Xiang Cai being able to forget about the past and talk about these things was equivalent to reminding them not to miss out on listening to the senior’s sermon.

After all, this kind of opportunity was something that the fewer people knew, the better.

Xiang Cai’s actions just showed that he cared about his family.

Originally, the hundreds of cultivators who had come to the top of the mountain to listen to the sermon were all determined not to spread this matter.

However, they still talked about it to their relatives and friends, and their relatives and friends had relatives and friends.

Just like that, the news spread like wildfire.

When Xiang Cai, Xiang De, and the others went to the second sermon, there were several thousand cultivators on the top of the mountain.

It was the vast majority of the cultivators in the Purple Immortal City and the nearby areas.

He Xiuxing came out of the hut and looked at the dense mass of people in front of him. He did not say much.

He climbed onto the big rock and began the sermon for the day.

Body Tempering and Qi Storage were the two basic realms.

Therefore, the cultivators of the future could still understand and enjoy the sermon yesterday.

Of course, there were many cultivators who had prepared jade slips and used recording techniques. They would automatically record the sermon from the beginning.

The number of beasts and birds listening by the side did not increase much compared to yesterday, but each of them seemed to have a spiritual surname.

Whether they were squatting or standing up, they all looked similar.

“After the sermon, I will leave an hour starting from the fifth sermon to answer your questions.”

“That’s all for today. Please come early tomorrow morning.”

After He Xiuxing finished his sermon, he saw that a few cultivators quickly emerged from their trance and opened their mouths to ask, so he said this lightly.

… On the top of Anxi Mountain, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

After a few months of preaching, He Xiuxing had already talked about the concept of storing qi from body tempering.

More than ten Pulse Realm cultivators gathered together with anxious and expectant expressions, wishing that He Xiuxing would come out immediately.

Xu Lin took a few steps, but his heart still could not calm down. He could only say with a wry smile, “I wonder if senior will talk about the secret technique of Pulse Realm advancing to the Primordial Liquid Realm? Or will he just talk about the previous content from the beginning?”

Zhang Shao was also not calm.

“It’s difficult. This is the key to establishing a small sect. Senior shouldn’t be so generous, right?”

“He himself is only in the Primordial Liquid Realm. Moreover, among the major trading companies, the secret method to break through to the Primordial Liquid Realm is the most profitable one on the Dao technique jade slips.”

“If senior were to teach it publicly, it would be cutting off people’s income, and it would definitely lead to a fatal disaster. Their backers are all masters of the Divine Sea Realm.”

These words were reasonable, and the rest nodded.

But when they thought about how badly they needed the secret technique to advance to the divine ability realms, they became dejected again.

As they were talking, they saw He Xiuxing walk out of the bamboo hut and climb onto the big rock.

So they sat down cross-legged and waited anxiously.

He Xiuxing looked at the cultivators below.

Because they had already started to cultivate the technique, they were slightly impressive, but there were not many that were like that.

“Today, we will talk about the method to advance from the Pulse Realm to the Primordial Liquid Realm,” He Xiuxing said slowly.

Zhang Shao, Xu Lin, and the others widened their eyes in surprise and delight.

The cold wind was frigid, penetrating deep into their bones.

However, on the top of a huge mountain, thousands of cultivators and the beasts and birds were completely silent. They did not even move an inch.

They were focused on listening to He Xiuxing’s sermon.

The bright moon was descending in the west, and the sun was rising in the east. He Xiuxing stopped his sermon.

“Today is the time to ask questions. If you have any questions, please stand up and ask them.”

Zhang Shao, Xu Lin, and the other Qi Storage Realm cultivators were listening to the key points, but they didn’t expect He Xiuxing to just stop just like that.

They were all scratching their ears and cheeks, and their hearts were itching.

However, they did not dare to be disrespectful to their seniors.

If they were not allowed to listen to the sermon tomorrow, they would regret it.

After He Xiuxing answered the questions for an hour, he saw a foreign cultivator, who had been listening for a long time, stand up.

“Senior, we have been cultivating for many days and have gained some enlightenment.”

“According to what you said, we can cultivate, and animals can cultivate too. Why is it that humans are the spiritual elders of all living things, and animals are not?”

He Xiuxing was somewhat baffled.

He had no idea why the other party would ask such a question.

“Let’s say we are, then what? We’re not the elders of all living things, and neither are animals.”

“Those innate great demons have innate spiritual bodies, such as dragons and phoenixes. They might be the ones.”

The person who asked the question was stunned.

The animals listening at the back had a strange commotion.

Many days ago, this person had already been impatient to squeeze in here with these animals to listen to the Dao.

He felt that this senior was a human cultivator, and these animals were stealing the doctrine of the human race.

“Senior, if these animals listen to your Dao and do evil for demons in the future, or if a top-tier great demon appears, this…”

He stopped.

He Xiuxing, however, frowned.

“You, a mere Qi-storage Realm cultivator, have to worry about such a big matter in the world?”

“You’re practicing Qi-storing Realm techniques and have the heart to break through realms?”

He looked at the cultivator who had asked the question and felt a little enlightened.

Mortals did not only have different attitudes and thoughts toward their own kind.

For example, Zhang Shao and Xu Lin were suspicious of each other.

For example, they wanted to stop low-level cultivators from coming.

This was the bad side.

There were also people like Xiang Cai who were diligent and hardworking, and at the same time, they hoped that everyone in their family would benefit.

They did not care about being misunderstood.

Mortals had different attitudes towards animals and other-worldly things.

Eastern region.

Ye Changge raised his eyebrows slightly.

“This disciple of mine won’t be able to learn everything there and directly rise to a certain major realm, right? He won’t directly break through to the Deciphering Realm?”
