"Ahem, um, senior..."
Just when Lu Xuan opened his mouth to remind the black cat, he heard it shouting without looking back: "Old Shitou, I brought it here, and I'll leave it to you!"
When its voice fell, golden light suddenly flashed nearby, and it quickly condensed into a kind-hearted old man.
When the old man saw Lu Xuan, he smiled and said proactively: "Little friend, we meet again!"
Lu Xuan was a little confused and asked: "Senior, have we met before?"
The old man still kept his smile, and his figure suddenly began to change, and soon turned into a somewhat broken stone tablet. His voice continued to sound: "You should have remembered it now, right?"
Lu Xuan looked at the stone tablet and quickly remembered that the last time he saw the black cat, the stone tablet he let him touch was exactly the same as the stone tablet in front of him!
That stone tablet is actually alive?
And you went directly to arrest him last time?
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan said with some embarrassment: "Senior, it turns out it was you. You were so offended last time!"
The stone tablet quickly transformed into the appearance of an old man again, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I'm just a stone. I was just lucky enough to be enlightened by my master. You don't need to call me senior, just call me old stone like this cat." Bar!"
Of course Lu Xuan wouldn't call it that.
Although the other party is a stone tablet, it was enlightened by a strong person, and it is unknown how many years it has existed.
So, he politely shouted: "Then, let me call you Mr. Shi!"
Shi Ling laughed heartily, seemingly satisfied with the title, and said with a smile: "Young people are polite, not like a certain cat!"
After saying that, he glanced sideways at the cat lying on the futon reading comics.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan secretly felt happy in his heart.
This stone spirit is not as generous as it seems on the surface. Fortunately, I didn't really follow his words and call him Old Stone, otherwise he might have resented him!
"Okay, let's forget about that guy and get to the point!"
After saying that, he materialized a set of tables and chairs and asked Lu Xuan to sit down before continuing: "The reason why I brought you here is because you have now broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and you have officially embarked on the path of cultivation. Able to initially bear what the master left behind.”
"This place is condensed by the soul power left by the master. Everything can be easily manifested here. It will be more convenient for the next explanation!"
At this point, Shi Ling did not continue, but looked at Lu Xuan and said: "However, before that, I need to know about your cultivation! How much do you know about the cultivation above Nascent Soul?"
Lu Xuan smiled bitterly and answered truthfully: "I don't know how Nascent Soul will practice in the future!"
This was a fact. Not to mention the cultivation after the Nascent Soul Realm, he actually didn’t know much about the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Golden Core Realm.
All this time, he has only been practicing step by step according to the Starry Secret Book given to him by the system, and at the same time, he has been continuously improving his strength with the help of the system.
Before the Golden Core Realm broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he actually didn't know about it at first, but he found out about it through various inquiries.
Now that he has finally broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he can say that he is completely blind to how to proceed with his subsequent cultivation and what things he needs to pay attention to.
Shi Ling was not surprised by Lu Xuan's answer and continued: "Then first tell me about the current cultivation situation on earth!"
Lu Xuan nodded.
Although I don’t know why, I still started to tell it about the situation on Earth.
From the cataclysmic period when monsters invaded, to when humans awakened their superpowers and began to resist, to when he began to use Tai Chi to revive martial arts, he began to tell Black Cat one by one about every detail.
Of course, he hid everything about the system throughout the process.
He told Shi Ling that he had practiced Tai Chi with his grandfather since he was a child, and when he grew up, he inherited the Tai Chi martial arts school and taught others Tai Chi.
There was nothing special at first, but as time went by, he suddenly realized something and his strength began to improve by leaps and bounds.
As for the Starry Vault Secret Technique that he practiced, he said that it was an ancient book that he got by accident.
He didn't know the specific origin of the technique. Originally, he was just trying to practice it, but he didn't expect that he actually succeeded in practicing it.
After listening to his story, Shi Ling nodded.
Then, he sighed softly: "Sure enough, as the master expected, the path of cultivation on this planet has indeed declined. The energy path that was once regarded as a crooked path has now become the mainstream!"
Lu Xuan was startled and asked curiously: "Old Shi, what do you mean when you say that the path of cultivation on earth is cut off?"
Shi Ling thought for a while and explained: "One hundred thousand years ago, there were many sects and sects, which gave birth to countless strong men. At that time, the Golden Elixir stage was just the beginning of cultivation, and the Nascent Soul stage was extremely common. There are quite a few people in the Transformation Stage and Hedao Stage, and there are also powerful people in the Mahayana Stage even higher up!"
Immediately, it glanced at Lu Xuan and said with a smile: "To put it simply, if your current strength were at that time, you wouldn't even be able to become a gatekeeper disciple!"
It hurts my heart!
That's what I said.
Lu Xuan can be regarded as the number one person on earth now, but in the past he couldn't even become a gatekeeper!
Shi Ling smiled slightly and explained: "You don't need to be discouraged. The reason why the earth's cultivation path is declining today has a lot to do with the withering of the spiritual energy on the earth."
"The fact that you were able to find the path of cultivation in such an environment, with no one to guide you, and even be able to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, shows that you have excellent talents and are a person with great opportunities. .If it were placed a hundred thousand years ago, you would also have become a peerless talent!
Listening to Shi Ling's unabashed praise, even Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Others may not know it, but he himself knows very well that his talent is not very good.
Without the assistance of the system, I might still be the director of the Tai Chi martial arts gym who has achieved nothing, and still faces the embarrassing situation of the martial arts gym closing down at any time!
"Old Shi, you just mentioned the withering of spiritual energy. Do you know the reason?" Lu Xuan asked curiously.
Hearing this, Shi Ling sighed again and said: "This invitation to you to come to the secret realm is actually related to this matter!"
Having said this, he did not continue, and there was a look of hesitation on his face, as if he was struggling with whether to tell Lu Xuan the truth or not.
Lu Xuan did not rush him, and sat quietly on the chair waiting for him to continue.
After a while, Shi Lingcai sighed again and told Lu Xuan unexpected news: "This incident was actually directly caused by the master!"
