Chapter 143: What Is the Immortal Dao? (2)
Just now, his body did not enter, only his consciousness and spiritual body entered that space.
Thinking of what the woman said about the spiritual body, and his previous feelings, he instantly understood that his feelings were not wrong.
The place where the woman was might be similar to the Inner Realm of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.
That is why the woman mentioned the word spiritual body.
Thinking of the woman's words, he also thought of the budding of the Immortal Root she mentioned.
Originally, he thought that the budding of the Immortal Root was a common occurrence.
After all, he has faced many Immortal Dao cultivators.
Among them, there are those like Xie Yang who have achieved Yin God.
He originally thought this was normal.
But from the woman's words, it was clearly not normal, but a very special phenomenon.
That is why the woman's expression was surprised.
Thinking of this, he looked at Xiao Emei.
"Xiao Emei, how much do you understand about the Immortal Dao?"
"Sir, there are several ancient texts that previous Palace Masters found in the Sword Palace, which record insights into the Immortal Dao, so I understand a little!" Xiao Emei said.
"Tell me about them!" Jiang Ning said.
"Then please sit down and let's talk!" Xiao Emei pointed to the mat beside them, the cultivation place of the previous Water Moon Sword Palace Masters.
Jiang Ning nodded and then sat cross-legged.
Xiao Emei also pressed down her long skirt and sat on the mat as well.
Subsequently, she told Jiang Ning about her understanding and insights into the Immortal Dao.
...
After a cup of tea's time.
Xiao Emei licked her lips, feeling dry.
"Sir, this is all I know, it's rather superficial."
"Thank you!" Jiang Ning said.
From Xiao Emei's words, he suddenly understood much about the Immortal Dao.
The Immortal Root is a prerequisite for stepping onto the path of the Immortal Dao.
Without the Immortal Root as a medium, ordinary people cannot absorb the Spiritual Energy from Heaven and Earth to increase Dao and cultivation.
So those without Immortal Roots cannot become cultivators.
And the strength of the Divine Soul is crucial for controlling Dao and mana.
The level of Dao affects the power of spells and Divine Skills.
The stronger the Divine Soul, the higher the Dao limit that can be condensed within the Golden Core, and the greater the Spiritual Energy that can be invoked.
Immortal Dao cultivators rely not only on their own mana to activate their spells and Divine Skills, but also need the assistance of external Spiritual Power.
From Xiao Emei's words, he gained a basic understanding of Immortal Dao cultivators.
He also understood why the strength of current Immortal Dao cultivators is weaker than that of the Ancient Era.
Due to the poor external environment, their spells and Divine Skills cannot invoke the Power of Heaven and Earth and can only rely on their own mana.
Unable to leverage more power with their cultivation, their techniques are naturally much weaker.
But in the Pocket World, it's different.
The external environment is equipped, and the air is still filled with Spiritual Energy.
Every move can invoke external power.
So the combat power is naturally different from the outside world.
From Xiao Emei's words, many of his inner doubts were resolved.
Then.
He rose from the mat.
"Take me to see those ancient texts!"
"Okay!" Xiao Emei nodded.
She looked up at Jiang Ning from the mat.
Noticing Jiang Ning's gaze, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
She then got up from the mat in a kneeling position.
She knew that using this method would reveal herself.
But her attire was intentional.
"Sir, this outfit of mine is somewhat revealing. It's alright beside you, but not suitable for going out! Please wait for a moment, I'll change into suitable clothing before going to the study building with you."
"Alright!" Jiang Ning nodded.
Then.
Xiao Emei walked behind the Divine Woman Statue, and her clothes fell softly.
A moment later.
When Xiao Emei walked out from behind the Divine Woman Statue, she was already wearing a modest palace attire.
The hem of the skirt reached the ground, and her upper body was covered tightly.
Her air-dried hair was also tied simply.
"Sir, please come with me!" Xiao Emei saluted Jiang Ning gracefully, resembling a refined lady.
Jiang Ning nodded.
...
Then.
Under Xiao Emei's guidance, the two moved unimpeded, quickly arriving at the study building.
Upon reaching the second floor, Xiao Emei took a yellowed ancient text from the dust-filled bookcase in the corner.
She gently blew off the dust on it and wiped it with her palm before handing it to Jiang Ning.
"Sir, these are the four texts! No one usually reads them, so dust collected."
Jiang Ning nodded, taking the four yellowed ancient texts from Xiao Emei.
His gaze swept over the front cover, hard and wrinkled with no titles left.
He then opened the first page and immersed himself undistractedly.
A moment later.
[Literacy and Judgement Experience +18]
[...]
As he focused on the ancient texts in hand, the Literacy and Judgement Experience began to increase.
At this moment, the moon has set in the east, and the bright moonlight slanted through the window's grid, falling on the two of them.
Xiao Emei stood quietly by watching Jiang Ning's profile.
To this day, she also knows that Jiang Ning has little interest in her.
But because of this, she finds Jiang Ning increasingly attractive.
"This... perhaps it's just being cheap!" Her heart couldn't help but feel a bit bitter.
Then.
She just stayed there, staring at Jiang Ning.
Until Jiang Ning finished reading the four ancient texts and slowly returned to reality.
After reading the four ancient texts, their contents did not differ much from Xiao Emei's narration.
He withdrew his gaze from the ancient texts in hand and looked at Xiao Emei beside him.
