Human Clan Defender-Chapter 828 - 11-12: Compensation, Abundant Spirit Veins (Two-in-One)
But no matter how advanced it is, it's still just a menial attendant.
Returning to the main hall, at the center is a mat, from which rich spiritual energy is surging out.
According to the memories.
Beneath the mat lies the entrance to the Qiu Peak Spirit Vein.
Aside from the mat, there are bookshelves embedded in the walls around the hall, holding books and crystal-like objects.
Legacy Spirit Talismans!
A wealth of information is contained within the talismans, accessible to those whose divine sense touches them.
Such a technique.
Shen Changqing is not entirely unfamiliar with it.
Though he has never tasted pork, he has seen pigs running, and from some sacred and strange tales in his past life's memory, such techniques are not unknown.
But with the Human Clan's original foundation, such things could never have been developed.
However, among the Heavens Myriad Clans, these techniques are not fresh news.
He closed the hall doors.
Coming to the mat, he sat cross-legged upon it.
Immediately, a surge of spiritual energy poured into his flesh, making Shen Changqing utter a sound of comfort.
"Ah, wonderful!"
The spiritual energy is dense.
Though the strong of the Heavens Myriad Clans prioritize the divine soul and do not emphasize tempering the flesh, over the years, under such a level of spiritual energy impact, the flesh too can be tempered to a formidable level.
Of course.
This strength is relative.
Take Zhongshan Chou for example.
His flesh has almost reached Saint Rank and among the Human Clan, there would not be more than three people with flesh that could compete.
However—
In his presence, such a level of flesh is quite weak.
"Speaking of which, in Zhongshan Chou's memory, none of the Heavens Myriad Clans seem to prioritize tempering the flesh, all are divine soul-centric, believing that no matter how strong the flesh is, it will eventually decay, only the divine soul can eternally prove the path."
Shen Changqing perused the memories in his mind.
Because of this view, the Heavens Myriad Clans prioritize the divine soul.
For them.
Even if the flesh is destroyed, the divine soul can still endure.
Conversely.
If the divine soul perishes, the flesh left behind is meaningless.
Truth be told.
This view is not without merit, the divine soul is indeed essential.
However—
In Shen Changqing's opinion, while the divine soul is important, the flesh is equally crucial, comparing cultivation to crossing a vast sea, the divine soul is the person crossing, while the flesh is the large boat they sail upon.
Without the large boat, no matter how strong the divine soul is, it cannot reach the other shore.
Similarly.
A large boat without a passenger renders crossing the shore meaningless.
Therefore.
Both the divine soul and the flesh are indispensable.
In comparison.
He is even more convinced that the path he walks is the correct one.
However.
Correctness.
Cannot be claimed with mere words; it must be proven through action.
The current divine path cultivation, focusing on the divine soul, already has Divine Kings, and even more powerful beings.
While in his own Martial Dao path, he stands as the strongest at Second Level of Cave Heaven.
This comparison.
Undoubtedly puts him at a significant disadvantage.
Yet Shen Changqing remains confident, believing that given time, there's a possibility he might catch up, and whether he can surpass remains to be seen after catching up.
"Additionally—"
"The one who attacked me from afar last time, it now seems, was not a strong member of the Demon Evil Clan!"
He thought of another matter.
Last time.
A strong one attacked from a distance, and Shen Changqing once thought it was a divine spirit of the Demon Evil Clan.
However.
After the battle with the Demon God and feeling the presence of other Demon Gods, though quite powerful, they still were not at that level of strength.
The difference.
Is not one of power levels, but a fundamental disparity.
Though Shen Changqing lacks concrete evidence, he firmly believes that with the current power of the Demon Evil Clan, no such strong being could exist.
"If it wasn't the Demon Evil Clan, it means there are other strong beings lurking, but why did they attack from afar only once? That remains unknown."
He wore a grave expression.
Blending into the Zhongshan Clan doesn't mean absolute safety.
Upon reflection.
The surroundings are full of hidden dangers.
A single misstep.
Could lead to a precipitous downfall.
Currently.
The primary focus should be on enhancing his own strength.
Thinking of this.
Shen Changqing continued to absorb Zhongshan Chou's memories.
Hundreds of years of memories aren't easily fully absorbed; thus far, he has only absorbed a portion.
Some deeply buried memories have yet to be touched.
Now having the time, naturally, he intends to fully absorb them to see if there is anything useful for himself.
——
After a while.
Shen Changqing emerged from the state of assimilating memories, with a look of enlightenment on his face.
"Indeed."
"The cultivation methods of the Heavens Myriad Clans differ not just from the present Human Clan, but also from those of the Ancient Times."
Saint Rank!
God Realm!
The two are somewhat similar.
But below the Saint Rank, they are completely different.
Spirit Communication—corresponds to the Innate Realm of ancient times.
Divinity Transformation—corresponds to the ancient Grandmaster to Grandmaster Ultimate Summit, akin to the current Human Clan's Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, and Extreme Realm levels.
Soul Nurturing—corresponds to the ancient Grandmaster Realm, akin to the first five levels of Heaven Being today.
Transcendent—corresponds to the ancient Domain Realm, akin to the latter five levels of Heaven Being for the current Human Clan.
