The Road To Immortality

Basic Spirit

Generally when someone puts his hand on the orb, it will usually bring up the color according to his basic spirit, such as red indicates a person has a basic spirit of fire or blue color indicates a person has a basic spirit of water.

As for the basic spirit that gives rise to the form is very rare, because it is usually influenced by talent or heredity, for example if someone raises the basic spirit form of a Phoenix bird, for example, then the person was perfectly suited to make a contract with the legendary animal.

But the orb that Nang In touched did not bring out any color or shape at all, it made Zou Jin and Lin Yue startled, because even the least talented person in the Northern Heavens Continent has at least a basic spirit even if it is a little.

"My wife, is this Orb of yours broken?" Zhou Jin took the Orb and looked at it carefully.

"No way, the quality of this Orb is the best and most accurate"

"True, that means..." Zhou Jin and Lin Yue looked at Nang In with a look of disbelief at once.

Nang In who was stared at by his two Teachers like that, tilted her head while scratching her cheeks with one finger, "Is there something wrong Teacher?"

Zhou Jin sighed softly then said, "In'er, you have absolutely no basic spirit in your body"

"really? is that not a good thing, Teacher?" Nang In glanced towards Lin Yue waiting for an answer from her.

"Of course it's not a good thing" Lin Yue continued, "Your body is not suitable to be a Cultivator"

"Why can't I be a Cultivator?"

"You can still become a Cultivator, but your development will probably be very slow" Lin Yue said firmly, she was unwilling to hide the harsh reality about this to Nang In.

Nang In's talent was very low to become a Cultivator, even Zhou Jin and Lin Yue had only discovered someone who had no basic spirit at all.

Even if Nang In managed to become a Cultivator, he would only arrive at the Earth Foundation level that would require luck and a very long time.

"Is it because In'er ate the Demon Jade, so he doesn't have a Basic Spirit?"

"It could be, but while the Demon Jade hasn't woken up from In'er's body, we'd better quickly start the exercise" Lin Yue said as she stepped into the forest.

"What if we do Blood Cleansing?"

"Indeed that's what we're going to do" Lin Yue replied without turning her head.

"Hoo well..." Zhou Jin smiled meaningfully then moved closer towards Nang In.

"What is it that Gu-" has not yet had Nang In finish his speech, his gaze darkened and finally fell unconscious.

"Rest" after pecking at the back of Nang In's neck, Zhou Jin carried him and entered the Forest.

In the forest, Lin Yue and Zhou Jin entered the cave and laid Nang In's body on a large rectangular stone.

Lin Yue popped out a jade bottle and dozens of long needles from the void space, then started dipping all the ends of the needles into a jade bottle filled with a strange liquid.

"In'er, from now on you're going to experience tremendous suffering, you have to endure my son"

Lin Yue poured her qi into the needle and stuck one needle right in Nang In's forehead.

Jem!

Instantly a white-colored aura appeared and spread throughout Nang In's body, Lin Yue continued by plugging all those needles into some important points of Nang In's body.

After sticking all the needles, Nang In's body twitched and then slowly raised sweat and black circles that emitted an unpleasant aroma, his face paled and often issued small veins in several areas of his body.

"It is with pleasure that my wife~" Zhou Jin smiled as he placed his right hand on the chest.

The next day, Nang In woke up because of the morning sun that entered through the cave holes, birds chirping and the sounds of animals outside the cave also often helped wake him up.

"Ah it's morning, why did last night's dream feel so terrible?" Nang In rubbed his eyes that were still sleepy, if he recalled the dream he had last night, immediately made his hair goosebumps.

Slowly he stretched his body that felt so fresh, his eyes ventured around and sensed something different...

"Wait, where is this?" Nang In panicked a little, he glanced in all directions trying to digest why he could be here, then his gaze pointed towards his body, at once he was surprised, because....

"WHY AM I NAKED?!"

Nang In shouted until he could be heard outside the cave, he spontaneously covered his body using both hands.

"Why is it like this, what happened to me!" Nang In became very panicked, he glanced around hoping to find something to cover his body, until a hand patted him...

"HIII WHO?!" Nang In was surprised until he turned his head to the side and found Zhou Jin beside him.

"It's me" Zhou Jin smiled as he raised his right hand.

"Teacher, why am I naked and what is this sticky liquid?!" Nang In could not help but protest, he found his body contained a black dried sap that emitted a foul odor.

"Hahaha calm down son, this liquid is called mud qi, by the way how is your body doing?"

Nang In moved her body, "Somehow my body feels lighter"

"Hmm it seems like the Blood Cleansing treatment is going quite well"

"Treatment?" Nang In tilted his head.

'Blood Cleansing', a treatment created directly by Lin Yue, focused on cleaning up the dirt and all kinds of toxins that were all over the body. This treatment makes the body and mind lighter, also makes it easier for a person to absorb qi well.

The success of this treatment became Nang In's starting point as a Qi Gathering level 1 Cultivator.

"Yesterday night, I was with my wife doing a cleansing on your body"

"How?"

Nang In's question kept Zhou Jin silent for a moment, Zhou Jin's silence realized Nang In would be one thing.

"Wait Teacher! last night I had a very bad dream, my whole body was like being pierced by dozens of very sharp needles, what was the nightmare I had due to the way Master treated my body?!" Nang In got up and immediately pointed at Zhou Jin's face, asking for an explanation from him.

Zhou Jin only smiled awkwardly as he stroked his hair.

Nang In patted the eel, the dream he had last night was a very terrible dream, he dreamed his whole body was tied up and stabbed by tens or even hundreds of small needles and from that dream he really felt what 'pain' was'!

"The treatment that my wife created was indeed very admirable, even though the way was very inhumane" Zhou Jin laughed loosely as he patted Nang In on the shoulder.

While Nang In could only let out a long sigh, he began to worry about his safety if trained by the two Gurus.
