Stirrings of Power and Old Grudges at the Inn
I kept pondering Old Hao’s words in my mind: "Spirit Embodiment Realm, Spirit Embodiment... what does that mean? Does it mean you have to have some spiritual charm, or is it related to a spirit body?" But what could that have to do with the word "full"?
I looked at him, completely confused.
Old Hao grinned, shaking his head for a while before slowly saying, "This trip to the capital isn’t short, it’ll take us quite a few days. I just hope I can have a good drink along the way."
He was clearly making a request.
"Senior, if you can explain this to me, there’ll be no shortage of wine."
"Alright," Old Hao squinted, looking at me with a profound gaze, and said nonchalantly, "The key to the Spirit Embodiment Realm is giving your Golden Core a spirit. At this stage, you need to nurture your core with spiritual power and mental focus. Gradually, the core will seem to develop a mind of its own, like creating a clone of yourself. This thing connects with your thoughts and will be the foundation for forming your Nascent Soul in the future. Only then have you truly entered the path of cultivation."
Then, as if remembering something, he casually glanced at my mother and said, "Didn’t your master teach you this? It’s not even a secret." Old Hao raised his eyebrows, a bit teasing.
I was momentarily speechless. I couldn’t exactly say the cold-faced sword immortal never taught me, or that my mother lost her memory and couldn’t teach me, so I just braced myself and replied, "Master told me to comprehend it myself."
"Alright, I guess I spoke too much." Old Hao shrugged nonchalantly.
At that moment, my mother noticed Old Hao’s gaze, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, like a spring flower quietly blooming, instantly showing a captivating smile.
