My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Miss Ning Xiang spoke unhurriedly, "Otherwise, how could our Seeking Immortal Tower possess Immortal Laws? It's just a pity that for over two thousand years, nature's spiritual energy has been depleted. Even with Immortal Laws, it's difficult to cultivate them to fruition."

Spiritual energy depletion.

Chen Sansi had long known about it, and he asked, "What use do you have for me then?"

"Nowadays in the entire world, only His Majesty the Emperor, Supervisor Sun, and additionally the Wushen Sect Leader, these three individuals, have achieved something on the Immortal Path," Ning Xiang said.

"Among them, Supervisor Sun has the most interactions with Immortals, and you, as his closed-door disciple..."

"Since you dared to come here, it must be with the Supervisor's consent."

"This further proves that you are the only one who can inherit the Supervisor's Immortal Law, and you also have the opportunity to come into contact with Immortal Laws, Immortals, and even the gate to the Immortal Realm."

"I have only one request in inviting you here," she continued.

"If one day you manage to enter the true Immortal Realm, I hope you could take me and my disciples with you."

Chen Sansi said helplessly, "Miss Ning Xiang, discussing these matters with a Refining Organ Martial Artist like me, doesn't it seem like you're joking?"

"Martial Arts are Martial Arts, the Immortal Path is the Immortal Path; the two are not to be mentioned in the same breath."

The lady in purple explained, "Regarding Martial Arts, I am merely at the stage of Refining Internal Organs Perfection. But even if a Meridian Passage stood before me, I could easily kill it."

"But Supervisor Sun is different; he entered the path through martial arts, which is the most difficult path."

"As for you..."

"May I, perhaps, feel it?" she asked.

Can Refining Internal Organs also cultivate towards immortality?

Chen Sansi remembered his senior brother telling him that he had two paths to choose from.

Doesn't that mean he could also cultivate towards immortality now?

It's just a pity...

Without a Cultivation Technique for the Immortal Path, it's very likely his master didn't have one, otherwise, he would have presented it.

Currently, he only had one spell in hand, which he couldn't yet cultivate.

"General, don't misunderstand, I only wish to see if you could choose another path," she said.

Ning Xiang leaned in closer, "If possible, you just need to nod and join the Seeking Immortal Tower, and swear a blood oath. Then, I will apply to the Tower Master to teach you the Cultivation Technique."

"No need," he replied.

Chen Sansi was not interested in joining another organization, and having to swear a blood oath sounded even less appealing.

"Miss Ning Xiang."

He spoke, "Do you plan to have me help you for nothing?"

"Of course not," she answered.

Ning Xiang took out a pouch from her bosom, "Don't look at me like that. For something as important as this, one needs to keep it close for peace of mind, right?"

"Master!"

Zhaozhao said sadly, "We only have a little spirit sand left. Are we really going to give it to this scoundrel?"

"Zhaozhao, mind your manners."

Ning Xiang chided gently, "In business, we must show sincerity."

"Spirit sand?"

Chen Sansi reached out to take it, but the other party withdrew her hand again.

"Ah, General!"

Ning Xiang lowered her head and drooped her shoulders, putting on a pitiable expression, "If you take this item, you must honor your word in the future and not walk away after squeezing everything out of me."

"I promise you that much," he said.

Chen Sansi didn't hesitate for too long.

The matter of the Immortal Realm was uncertain, with no telling how long it would take to come to fruition.

But right now, he could see a rich concentration of Qingxuan Energy emanating from within the pouch!

With the contents inside, he would certainly be able to cultivate the spell!

After getting his assurance, Ning Xiang finally handed over the pouch with peace of mind.

Chen Sansi opened the pouch and found firefly-colored sand inside that looked like crushed agate.

"This is spirit sand," the lady in purple began to explain slowly. "At the beginning of Ancient Times when heaven and earth first unfolded, spiritual energy was abundant. But for unknown reasons, it has rapidly depleted over several thousand years; now people can only cultivate Martial Arts through a mixed variety of Qi."

"But in order to cultivate the Immortal Path, one must possess spiritual energy."

"Hence, one has to draw on the spiritual energy from some objects left over from Ancient Times."

"Spirit sand is one such example."

"I understand," Chen Sansi said as he accepted the pouch.

"By the way," Ning Xiang shifted the conversation, "There might be a disorder occurring in Liangzhou."

Chen Sansi inquired, "Miss, are you referring to the Witch God Sect?"

"Yes, and not only them."

Ning Xiang opened the window, looking in the direction of the Luotian Mountain Range, "Deep within the mountains, there is an Evil Qi."

"Evil Qi?"

Chen Sansi recalled the towering black Mystical Energy that he had once seen in the deep mountains.

Is this energy referred to as Evil Qi?

He asked, "What's the difference between this Evil Qi mentioned by Miss Ning Xiang and the spiritual energy spoken of earlier?"

"Both spiritual energy and Evil Qi originate from the Immortal Realm, but the latter is aggressive and violent, unsuitable for cultivation, and normally doesn't occur naturally. We're not sure what's happening with the Evil Qi in the Luotian Mountain Range, and it's growing stronger day by day, as if it's alive."

There was worry in Ning Xiang's eyes, "Recently, the Witch God Sect has been excessively slaughtering Sect disciples. I'm not sure if it's related to this. If it is, who knows what kind of chaos it will eventually cause."

"If it worries you so much..."

Chen Sansi challenged her, "Why don't you all go take a look?"

"I would love to! With such a formidable Evil Qi, there might hide some secret regarding the Immortal Realm inside it. But, alas, my strength isn't that considerable," she said with an air of resignation.

Ning Xiang closed the window, "The Poisonous Beasts inside the mountains affected by the Evil Qi are quite fearsome, and my mana couldn't withstand such consumption. Perhaps High Realm Martial Artists could handle it."

High Realm Martial Artists?

Listening to her, Chen Sansi thought that pursuing immortality seemed to be less effective than practicing martial arts.

"I may have stepped on the Immortal Path, but I'm far from becoming a true Immortal; it's still leagues away," Ning Xiang seemingly noted his thoughts and clarified, "Not to mention, with the sparse spiritual energy here, it's nearly impossible to advance one's cultivation. Therefore, General, you must appreciate the preciousness of the spirit sand and remember not to forget about me in the future."
