After a bloody battle overnight, Dong Tianyu unsurprisingly emerged as the victor.
Seeing the two knights’ servants completely exhausted and unconscious, Dong Tianyu let out a satisfied chuckle.
Taking advantage of the moment, Dong Tianyu briefly washed in the bathroom, dressed, and left the Tanglang Number to return to the Cave mansion.
The continuous cultivation sessions in the Hall of Longevity were not to be wasted, even though some might argue that it’s building castles in the sky, laying a shaky foundation.
But they did not understand that cultivation techniques are not mutually exclusive. To use a simple analogy, it’s like learning to drive.
Based on the current examination system, if experienced drivers were to retake the test, most would fail. However, novices, having completed a driving course, would find the test much more straight-forward.
This is largely a matter of habit. The blanker the slate, the easier it is to absorb new knowledge.
The cultivation method Dong Tianyu studied was just like this. The basic cultivation method and the route of the Chaos Decision Cultivation Method are very different. Dong Tianyu relied on continuous sessions, without actively guiding the cultivation, thereby avoiding the influence of previous cultivation memory.
As for the combat power in the Foundation Building Stage, the outside world’s Spirit Energy is scarce. So not only can powerful spells not be used, even the Spirit Energy required by the normal drawing symbols using the external world’s Spirit Power cannot be supplied.
A clever woman can’t cook without rice. In these circumstances, a Foundation Building Stage cultivator might have the ability, but their actual combat power is not strong.
As for the fact that even a handgun could kill a Foundation Building Stage cultivator, it was quite ordinary. Reality is not a game where data quantifies the body. Unlike a game where a lethal hit merely subtracts health, sometimes without even affecting movement, in reality, even a kitchen knife, given the right opportunity, can instantly kill a Foundation Building Stage cultivator.
Even in the Golden Core Stage, as long as the cultivator is not detected, one successful sneak attack could directly result in a kill.
Only at the Nascent Soul Stage do all physical weaknesses become immune to instant fatal effects, hence the saying: ’Nascent Soul Never Dies, True Spirit Lives Forever’.
Although the body of a Foundation Building Stage cultivator might be frail, using Divine Sense does not require Spirit Power. With an all-rounded Divine Sense, it would be nearly impossible for an attacker to remain undetected and catch the cultivator off guard.
Foundation Building Stage cultivators are just like wizards in a fantasy world: high in offense and low in defense. Regular people could also kill them instantly as long as they found the right opportunity.
However, as the cultivators increase their skill and gain more spells, their various deficiencies would gradually be filled.
Just like the common saying, ’No matter how skilled you are, you can’t outfight a bullet.’ If a handgun doesn’t work, one could use a cannon, then a missile, and if still unsuccessful, a nuclear bomb.
Of course, this only applies to low-level cultivators. For stronger cultivators, they may not be able to resist gunfire, but they can evade in advance.
So, cultivation and combat power can’t be equated. Cultivation can be tested by various means, but actual strength cannot be assessed, seeing as reality and gaming differ, and various factors can impact the final result of a battle.
