Chapter 638 - First Time Teaching
Lin Wu and his two subordinates had changed their location and were now in an area that was about fifty kilometers away from the site of battle. This was a place that Lin Wu had already passed by and felt like it was good enough.
There were little to no strong beasts nearby, with the strongest one being at the peak core condensation realm and there weren't any important resources here either.
But what this place did have was a sinkhole. It was around twenty meters wide and was hidden by a lot of trees and had plants growing all over it. Even if one looked at it from the sky, they would find it harder to differentiate since there were just too many plants growing on its walls and other surfaces.
From the top, it just looked like a singular green area and the depth was difficult to perceive.
"I never knew there was a sinkhole like this here." Ye Jin said, finding it a rather pleasant place.
"Mmhmm… it is a little wet, but other than that, it's rather beautiful." Wang Xiong agreed seeing the various flowers that were growing there.
The flowers were just normal flowers and thus there was no need for any beasts or cultivators to tread in this area.
"You two should stay here for a couple of days before returning. Though if Yun Bai contacts us before that, we'll just talk with him then." Lin Wu spoke.
"As you wish, senior." Wang Xiong replied.
With this, the plan for staying in the sinkhole was made. While two days was not that long of a time, it was still a bit strange for the two of them to stay here with Lin Wu. It was just a bit awkward since they were not used to being with him for longer periods of time.
But at the same time, they were curious about Lin Wu and how he cultivated.
"Umm… senior." Ye Jin suddenly spoke up.
"Yes?" Lin Wu responded.
"Since we will be here together for a while… will you be willing to give us some pointers on cultivation?" Ye Jin asked.
"Yes! I'd love to do this, since we don't get an opportunity like this often." Wang Xiong chimed in as well.
Lin Wu had certainly not expected something like this and was completely lost.
'Shit… I completely forgot about the teaching part of the mysterious and powerful senior act.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
Lin Wu's cultivation was mostly assisted by the system and it was in charge of handling the technical parts. Lin Wu would at most follow the information that was already in his mind and follow that to cultivate.
Even the information that he had learned from the various cultivation techniques and manuals was mostly surface-level since he couldn't apply it directly to his body due to not being human.
This was the issue because of which he left most things to the system. Though Lin Wu did know that once he entered the Dao Treading realm, he would have to actively start comprehending the Dao in order to progress and the system would not be able to help him for the most part.
'I have to come up with something, or it'll become awkward.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He was silent for five minutes, which made Wang Xiong and Ye Jin feel a bit nervous, but since Lin Wu didn't express any displeasure, they decided to wait and see.
"Alright…" Lin Wu finally spoke, relieving the two.
"But before that, you already know that I am a beast and thus the things that apply to humans don't particularly apply to me and vice a versa. Thus I won't be giving you any pointers pertaining to specific cultivation techniques." Lin Wu stated.
"That isunderstandable, senior. We will be fine with anything that you teach us." Wang Xiong and Ye Jin replied.
"Very well, I'll give you some general information then." Lin Wu said.
The two humans listened to him attentively as Lin Wu started to speak. The thing that Lin Wu started with was the very basics of cultivation, which was the different realms and their meanings.
He explained all the realms all the way to the Immortal Ascension realm, which was what the two of them knew of until now.
"Now then, this was the part that you mostly knew of. But I'll be telling you about the realms that exist above the Immortal Ascension realm." Lin Wu said, exciting the two humans.
"From what I've heard from patriarch, above the Immortal Ascension realm is the Immortal Realm, right?" Wang Xiong asked.
"Indeed, but there is more to it than just that. The immortal Realm is just a basic generalization and there are many sub realms in it. More accurately, there are 7 such sub realms.
All the realms from the Qi refining realm all the way to the Immortal Ascension realm are the sub realms of the Major realm which is called as the Spirit realm. That is the reason why you are all called spirit cultivators or spirit Qi cultivators and the ones that are in the immortal realm are called as Immortal cultivators or Immortal Qi cultivators." Lin Wu replied.
This was just the start of Lin Wu's explanation and he then went on to explain about the seven tribulations that encompassed the seven sub realms of the Immortal realm. Wang Xiong and Ye Jin were so stunned by all this that they couldn't even blink their eyes.
Lin Wu of course, skipped over some things that he literally could not say due to the world's restrictions, but the information that he had given was already enough to overwhelm the two.
Wang Xiong was the most intrigued by how someone actually reached an Immortal World. The whole moving through the gates of the Greater and Grand Void both confused and amazed him.
Lin Wu teaching them this had another effect, though.. The belief that Lin Wu was long lived and had seen all this was now firmly anchored in their hearts.
