Against Heaven's Will Chapter 30 - Cultivation Lesson - Part 2

Chapter 30: Cultivation Lesson - Part 2

Nuwa and Wu were suddenly glad that Xuefeng forced them to cultivate all nine elements before they Ascended. If they didn't, they would be hopeless now.

"Teacher, when will we learn how to fly?" one of the kids questioned curiously, holding an Air Qi bird on his finger. "I want to fly like a bird."

"Once you reach the seventh Stage called Saint Stage, you will be able to use your Spirit Qi to fly. Naturally, you have to Master Spirit Element first," lady teacher replied with a smile.

"Teacher, what comes after the G.o.d Stage?" another kid asked, causing the lady teacher to throw her hands in the air, stopping them.

"Hold on. Let me finish explaining and then I will answer your questions."

Seeing that everyone nodded, she continued after a deep breath.

"Before thinking about the G.o.d Stage, you should first focus on your Elements. Each Land in the Heaven Realm is dominated by one Element, splitting it into nine parts: Fire Land, Water Land, Earth Land, Air Land, Blood Land, Metal Land, Spirit Land, Ether Land, and the Land of Lightning. To master all nine Elements, we are usually required to visit all nine Lands. It's a much more efficient method than simply using the pills of each Element," the lady teacher explained.

"Now," she added as she gazed at the kid who asked the last question. "After you finally mastered all nine Elements and filled your Dantian with Qi to the brim, you are required to merge your Dantian with your Soul. It's quite a troublesome process but once you are successful, you will finally enter the adult world of Cultivation: the G.o.d Stage."

Nuwa and Wu were waiting for this moment, listening closely to not miss anything. If the kids could understand it, they could too.

"The G.o.d Stage opens another chapter where one cultivates by tempering their Soul. It is a very delicate process that requires you to insert Qi into your Soul and slowly expand its capacity. Our Souls are special and can stretch to extremely big sizes. You cannot speed up this process and it's actually the most important moment because it determines your Soul's capacity for the rest of your Cultivation," lady teacher explained, causing everyone to focus on her.

Every kid dreamed of being a powerful Cultivator in the future, so they understood the value of this knowledge.

"Before you can become a full-fledged G.o.d Stage Cultivator, you need to pa.s.s through two more unofficial stages. After merging your Soul, you enter into the Pseudo-G.o.d Stage. At that moment, your Soul has the size of your body, fitting perfectly. Once you start expanding it and you start feeling discomfort as if your Soul doesn't fit anymore, it is a sign you entered Semi-G.o.d Stage. Only when you reach the limit of your Soul and cannot expand it any more will others see you as a full G.o.d Stage Cultivator."

The lady teacher was already facing Wu while speaking as the teachings were mainly aimed at her.

"I already reached the full G.o.d Stage with my Soul expanded to its limits. To achieve Immortal Stage I only need to do one thing. Create an Elemental Core using all the Qi gathered in my Soul."

"Whoa…" The kids called out in amazement, gazing at the lady as if she was their idol. "Teacher is powerful!"

She didn't correct them but only smiled bitterly. There were millions of Cultivators in a similar situation to her own, so she wasn't any special.

"Now, this is a part when it gets tricky. If you only mastered one Element before merging your Soul, you can only create a single Elemental Core. The more Elements you Mastered, the harder it is to create one. This is why you have to decide on your Cultivation Path before you start. If you are too ambitious, you can end up like me," the lady teacher described with a sigh.

"You chose the harder route and find it hard to create the Elemental Core?" Wu guessed to which the lady teacher nodded.

"Yes, I Ascended to Heaven Realm after Mastering four Elements. I decided to create a Quad-Elemental Core so I expanded my Soul using four different elements in balance. Now I find it hard to create my Elemental Core which hinders my advancement to Immortal Stage. If only I was less optimistic and expanded my Soul while only using two Elements, I would create my Dual Elemental Core by now."

"I see… I'm sure you will eventually succeed. Right, everyone?" Wu a.s.sured while calling to the kids. Getting prompted up by Wu, the little girl from her lap stood up and run up to their teacher, hugging her cutely.

"You can do it, Teacher!"

Everyone else began standing up to cheer her up, creating a wholesome moment.

"Thank you, but I already gave up trying. It's a lesson for the future to all of you. Stay humble and choose the path that's doable. It's always better to downgrade a bit if we are not sure instead of halting your advance forever," lady teacher advised.

"What about balancing all nine elements?" Nuwa joined the conversation. "Has anyone ever done it before?"

She already expected that Xuefeng will want to create the most powerful Core possible.

"The Legendary Gold Core? Of course, but only Heaven defying geniuses can achieve such a feat. I won't guarantee that Miss can create one, but I'm sure Miss can surpa.s.s this little teacher," lady teacher replied. "I would just advise to be cautious. We have only one chance."

Wu and Nuwa nodded, but deep down they already decided. To rival their great husband, they could only create one Core and it was a Gold one.

They wanted to ask the lady teacher more questions but the guard suddenly approached them from behind, informing, "Miss Wu, your request has been finalized."

"Huh? That fast? Didn't you say there would be problems?" Wu questioned amused but the guard only shrugged. "We tried extra hard to settle it faster than normal."

Wu knew it was a lie but she had no proof.

"I'm only a G.o.d Stage Cultivator so that's the most tips I can give you Miss. I hope I helped," lady teacher ended the lesson with a smile.

"You helped indeed. Thank you." Wu returned the smile.

Before leaving, they said their goodbyes to the kids and finally went on their way back to the mansion. When they walked some far away from the park, Wu ordered without turning her head behind.

"I don't care if there is a way or not, I want that lady to create her Core."
