Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 654 - 333, Primordial Spirit Becomes Immortal after Nine Catastrophes - 2

The young lady in yellow spoke. Her voice was crisp and clear, like that of a melodious oriole, but if one looked closely at her eyes, they would find them deep and terrifying, as if staring into a dark ancient well.

"Breaking through the late stage of Nascent Soul is easy, but the **Nascent Soul Stage** that follows is difficult..." Fang Xiuxian shook his head. Although Dai Ji was young, just like Xu Xing, not even a thousand years old, breaking through to the **Nascent Soul Stage** was still not an easy task.

"But you never know..." The woman in yellow smiled. "When you competed with Master Xu in terms of imposing pressure, even with your strength from having passed the Third Tribulation, you didn't subdue him quickly and even suffered some minor injuries... This shows that the strength and foundation of Xu Xing are far beyond our imagination; maybe, he could really achieve a breakthrough and become an immortal. Following an immortal, it would only be natural for Dai Ji to transcend, like a chicken and dog ascending to the heavens," she said slowly.

Most cultivators in the Cultivation World believe that reaching the **Nascent Soul Stage** marks the pinnacle of cultivation in the Human Realm; however, only **Nascent Soul Cultivators** like themselves know that the **Nascent Soul Stage** is only the beginning of becoming an immortal. One's Primordial Spirit needs to pass the Nine Tribulations to become Immortal before they can ascend to the Immortal World through Ascending by Featherization. Before Xu Xing passed the first tribulation of his **Primordial Spirit**, he fought on par with Fang Xiuxian, a **Nascent Soul Saint Monarch** who had passed the Third Tribulation. His foundation was imaginable, truly that of an immortal constitution.

"Breaking through to become an immortal?" Fang Xiuxian sighed. "Since the end of ancient times, not one person has broken through to become an immortal in East Huangzhou for over one hundred thousand years. I don't think Xu Xing can surpass these heroes of the past hundred thousand years."

"We should give it a try. If he succeeds, it would be a good fortune for our Red Dust Pavilion." The lady in yellow smiled beautifully.

"Let's give it a try." Fang Xiuxian also nodded.

「Three years passed in the blink of an eye.」

The Dual Cultivation Method was not just a minor skill in bed, but also one of the great paths to achieving immortality. The legendary Yellow Emperor was said to have subdued three thousand women and ascended to immortality. During the three years of dual cultivation with Dai Ji, Xu Xing was not without benefits. Dai Ji's Cultivation Method originated from Red Dust Pavilion and was the most compatible with the dual cultivation Secret Realm. Through dual cultivation with Dai Ji, and leveraging the Heaven-Man Unity of the **Nascent Soul Stage**, he endeavored to comprehend the Yin-Yang Principle existing within this Cave to the fullest extent. Although three years was not enough for his Dragon and Tiger Dao Principle to fully transform, it had already made his Daoist attainment progress quite a bit.

The Nine Tribulations to become Immortal in the **Nascent Soul Stage** are also known as the Nine Calamities of Immortality in the Chiming World... Sitting cross-legged in the Cave Mansion of the dual cultivation Secret Realm, Xu Xing glanced at Dai Ji, who was breaking through the late stage of Nascent Soul, then retracted his mind and began to ponder his own Primordial Spirit path.

The Nine Calamities of Immortality are difficult to pass, which is why the cultivators of the Chiming World created three major realms: Refining Void, Unification, and Tribulation Crossing...

However, the strength of these three realms is also related to the **Nascent Soul Stage**.

The more tribulations one passes in the **Nascent Soul Stage**, the more profound their foundation in the subsequent three realms will be, and the smoother their Daoist path will become. Xu Xing pondered.

With two Fate Deductions in the Nascent Soul Realm, he had gained some understanding of cultivation in the Chiming World, including the three realms he was most interested in. Even **Primordial Spirits** who haven't passed the Nine Calamities of Immortality have a chance to break through to these three realms, then step by step become **Tribulation Crossing Cultivators** and ascend as immortals. However, this path was not easy. A majority of Chiming World cultivators would first pass the Nine Calamities to become Immortal, then after finding it difficult to pass the Ninth Calamity, they would choose to break through and become Refining Void cultivators.

In the Nine Calamities of Immortality, the first three are Physical Body Tribulations. The First Calamity is the Birth Tribulation, the Second Calamity is the Death Tribulation, and the Third Calamity is the **Dying Glory Tribulation**.

The Birth Tribulation is easy to pass, the Death Tribulation is hard to find, and the **Life and Death Tribulation** makes it difficult to perceive one's true self... Xu Xing shook his head.

To pass the First Calamity, the Birth Tribulation, one only needs to sever a part of their limbs, have the Longevity Immortal Energy within their body regenerate them, and then reshape the body. This tribulation is thus the easiest. However, passing the Second Calamity, the Death Tribulation, would not be so easy. Simply speaking, this tribulation is about giving birth to a trace of death energy within one's Essence Blood, which is full of the power of creation and longevity, and then coordinating the balance between Yin and Yang. But… **Nascent Soul Cultivators** are already close to immortality, almost unaging and undying, so how can they generate death energy in their bodies? This is a contradiction.

That's why the Yin-Yang Principle is needed! Determination appeared in Xu Xing's eyes. It was difficult for the Qi of death to be born within the Longevity Essence Blood, but with the help of the Yin-Yang Principle, the vital Qi could be forcibly transformed into the death Qi. Most of the cultivators in the Chiming World, when crossing the Second Calamity, the Death Tribulation, often took shortcuts. **Nascent Soul Cultivators** who left their Caves consume their lifespan every moment. The moment their life is depleted, the Qi of death is naturally born within their bodies. The lifespan of a Primordial Spirit is ten thousand years. But with the help of Dao Principles, within a Cave, one could extend their life to tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, almost achieving immortality.

Both the Yin-Yang Principle and the Life and Death Principles are beneficial for the Death Tribulation. However, for me, the Yin-Yang Principle is the most convenient...

Advancing the Dragon and Tiger Dao Principle further will lead to the Yin-Yang Principle. There's no need to spend additional time comprehending the Life and Death Principles.

Once I emerge from seclusion, I will attempt to pass the Primordial Spirit's first tribulation and use this opportunity to gain insights into the Yin-Yang Principle. Xu Xing made his decision. The Life and Death tribulations of the Nine Calamities of Immortality are both challenges and opportunities; it is in this state that the mysteries of the Yin-Yang Principle can be most easily understood.

Time quietly passed. One day, two days... On the seventh day, the slumbering Dai Ji finally showed some movement. A vortex of spiritual energy appeared above her head, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy. Seeing this, Xu Xing thought for a moment, then slapped his own Head, causing his Mother-Child Twinning to emerge from his body. The Mother-Child Twinning each sprayed out a milky-white breath, which was infused into Dai Ji's body. These two wisps of milky-white breath were a part of the Trained Immortal Qi brought down from the Immortal World after Xu Xing had opened the Immortal World Bridge. Technically, Trained Immortal Qi was not an energy of a high enough grade for Nascent Soul Cultivators to bear; a slight mistake would cause a Nascent Soul Cultivator to explode and die. But Dai Ji was different. Through dual cultivation with Xu Xing, Dai Ji's body had already refined a part of Xu Xing's Magic Power. The influx of these two wisps of Immortal Qi would not have too great a negative impact on Dai Ji.

With the addition of these two wisps of Trained Immortal Qi, Dai Ji's aura increased significantly. She not only broke through to the late stage of Nascent Soul but also continually climbed until she reached the peak of the late stage of Nascent Soul.

"Immortal Qi is the foundation of **Nascent Soul Cultivators**. Husband, these two wisps of Immortal Qi you've given me... I wonder if they will affect you in any way?" After completing her breakthrough, Dai Ji retracted her aura, her gaze towards Xu Xing tinged with concern.

"It's just two wisps of Immortal Qi. Their impact on me is negligible. However, for you, these two wisps of Immortal Qi might help you advance further and touch the **Nascent Soul Realm** ahead of time." Xu Xing waved his hand, signaling Dai Ji not to worry too much. He had broken through to the **Nascent Soul Realm**, opening the Immortal World Bridge, and bringing in far more Trained Immortal Qi than ordinary **Nascent Soul Cultivators**. Other cultivators would break through using a Yuan Shen Pill or secret techniques. Only he had truly broken through with a solid foundation.

"With Husband saying so, I'm relieved." Dai Ji's expression eased. She was afraid that because of her, Xu Xing's Daoist path would be delayed. If so, it would be her fault.

Since Dai Ji had already achieved her breakthrough, there was no longer any point for Xu Xing and Dai Ji to remain in the Red Dust Pavilion's Dual Cultivation Secret Realm. After sending out a talismanic message, the two of them departed.

「Shaoqing.」

Immortal Maidens invited Xu Xing and Dai Ji to the inner sanctum of the Red Dust Pavilion's Cave to meet with Fang Xiuxian and the other **Nascent Soul Saint Monarchs**.

"It's been three years since we last met, Dai Ji, and you have already broken through to the late stage of Nascent Soul. This is truly a joyous occasion," the young lady in yellow said, glancing at Dai Ji with a smile.

"Elder Liu is too kind." Dai Ji bowed respectfully, her attitude humble and without any sense of arrogance. "This humble disciple's accomplishment today is thanks to the cultivation of Elder Liu and Elder Fang."

Xu Xing, standing beside her, gave a polite bow and then took a seat in the Pavilion's living room. Dai Ji was of the Younger Generation, but he was not. He was on equal footing with the two Supreme Elders of the Red Dust Pavilion.

"Master Xu, why not reconsider joining **Our School** as a Retainer? The Dual Cultivation Secret Realm can be open to Master Xu for one hundred years. That wouldn't be an issue."

"By becoming a Retainer of **Our School**, Master Xu can still serve as the Sect Leader of the Butian Sect. Furthermore, **Our School** will not interfere in the internal affairs of Master Xu's sect," the young lady in yellow spoke.
