Chapter 175: Hao Xifeng
As Xu Yu was walking out of the trial pagoda, a dozen or so of her incarnations suddenly appeared in front of her.
Suddenly, Xu Yue waved her hand, absorbing the incarnations back into herself.
Without any words, Xu Yue suddenly disappeared from the entrance to the trial pagoda, appearing inside of her room.
After that, Xu Yue immediately entered the small world inside of her room.
Merely a few moments, an unfamiliar woman dressed in a simple robe suddenly appeared in front of Xu Yue.
Looking at the woman for a few moments, a name suddenly appeared in Xu Yue's mind.
"Junior pays respects to senior Xifeng," said Xu Yue as she looked at Hao Xifeng, one of the eight False Immortal ancestors of the sect.
Even though Hao Xifeng was the youngest of all of the False Immortals inside of the sect, she was still much much older than even the oldest Dao Saints and had vast experiences.
"I'm here to enlighten you on the path to becoming immortal," said Hao Xifeng as she looked at Xu Yue without any expression on her face.
"I'm here to speak to you about the cultivation stages you weren't yet taught about, as well as some peculiarities of the last few cultivation realms," said Hao Xifeng before she sat down crosslegged, looked at Xu Yue and once again began speaking.
"Since you reached the Major Trancendance Realm, are you familiar with what lies beyond that other than the name of the next realm?" asked Hao Xifeng.
"I'm aware of them, but I wasn't really taught about them," said Xu Yue as she also sat cross-legged in front of Hao Xifeng.
"I see, then let's begin," said Hao Xifeng before a projection of a large tree suddenly appeared behind her.
"As you may know, the Major Transcendence Realm is divided into two stages, The Dao Tree stage and the Dao Flower Stage, with the appearance of the flower on the tree being indicative of the growth of your comprehension of the Dao,"
"To reach the next realm, the Dao Saint realm, one must condense the entirety of the essence of both your Dao Tree and Flower into a stem, which will then grow into a Dao Fruit," said Hao Xifeng as she stared in front of her without any emotion.
At the same time, the tree projection behind her morphed, as a flower, and then a stem slowly appeared on it.
Even though she already knew all of this, Xu Yue still listened to Hao Xifeng speak, so as to not miss anything that she might need to know,
"After the cultivator reaches the Dao Saint realm, they then begin imbuing the small stem with the power of their Dao, helping it become riper and riper, before eventually becoming a Golden Dao Fruit when the cultivator reaches the Peak of the Dao Saint realm,"
"Beyond this, lies one of the greatest chasms in cultivation, the diference between Mortal and Immortal, so great in fact, that even though an entire realm was stuffed in here, huge gaps in strength between Mortals, False Immortals, and True Immortals," said Hao Xifeng as a tiny amount of bitterness could be heard in her words.
Even though Xu Yue noticed the, sadness in Hao Xifeng, she did not say anything, merely maintaining the silence.
"There are two reasons this gap exists, Existence and Dao, compared to those that have not comprehended existence, those that have are in a whole other dimension,"
"Even if you were overwhelmingly more powerful than someone who had comprehended existence, and managed to kill them, they would just easily come back to life, while your own regeneration or healing techniques would be totally useless, as a single small cut would take millions of years to heal, this, in fact, is the reason for the majority of the strength of those at the False Immortal Realm," said Hao Xifeng causing Xu Yue to slightly frown.
"Why is that?" asked Xu Yue, wondering why someone at the False Immortal Realm couldn't have a powerful Dao.
"The reason for this lies within the method to break through to the True Immortal realm, fusing your Dao with your Existence, and since True Immortals fused themselves with their Daos they become something entirely different from mortals, even from False Immortals," said Hao Xifeng as some more bitterness appeared on her face.
Hearing what Hao Xifeng had just said, Xu Yue couldn't help but take in a deep breath and begin thinking.
After a few moments, a certain question popped up in Xu Yue's mind.
"Since some can master existence in merely five million years, then wouldn't all False Immortals have done so?" asked Xu Yue as she felt somewhat weird about this.
"In a totally wild and uncontrolled reality, something like this may be true, but in ours, the Grand Dao could not leave such a loophole, as such, those that have become False Immortals, have their talents in terms of existence suppressed, only becoming unleashed if they somehow managed to become True Immortals," said Hao Xifeng, with a smile on her face.
Hearing that, Xu Yue's mind couldn't help but turn to the True Immortal that had tried to kill her, remembering that he would have had his talent suppressed even after becoming Immortal, Xu Yue couldn't help but take in a deep breath.
'It's best that I do not become a False Immortal,' thought Xu Yue as she silently destroyed a plan she had, not wanting to become a True Immortal in one step.
Looking at Xu Yue, who was lost in thought, Hao Xifeng couldn't help but smile.
"Yes, it's best that you do," said Hao Xifeng before disappearing, causing Xu Yue to become somewhat confused.
...
As she walked through the sect, Hao Xifeng took in a deep breath, but even so, as she remembered that day, two hundred million years ago, anger couldn't help but appear on her face.
Only a few moments later, the anger on her face slowly disappeared, as it buried itself deep within her heart.
