Claudia’s face sank instantly.
Even the protector of the True Martial Shrine, who had survived the ancient times, said that he was powerless. Wouldn’t she be condemned?
“Sir, sir… I think I still can be saved. Please take a closer look at me.”
The old man shook his head firmly. “I don’t want to look anymore. You’ve ruined your cultivation.”
Alex almost choked with laughter at the side. This protector’s words were so straightforward they would make anyone cry.
Claudia glared at Alex in annoyance. “What are you laughing at? If you laugh again, I’ll tell your father-in-law you’ve assaulted his woman.”
Gasp!
Alex instantly felt strangled.
If those words were to enter the ears of Luna’s father, the matter would be severe. More importantly, the two were close to each other just now, and Alex would never convince him of his innocence.
“Sir, I think my cultivation level has soared rapidly, especially during the recent tide of spiritual energy. I have absorbed lots of it had a direct breakthrough… I think I’m among the top in martial arts and cultivation levels in this land of America. Could you have been mistaken?”
The old man said, “You have a feminine physique, yet you cultivated that Serenity or god knows what. The faster you achieve a breakthrough, the deeper you will be ruined.”
And so, Claudia truly became a little anxious. Her sisters had taken progressive approaches in their cultivation, so they had promising prospects. Meanwhile, she wanted to grow old together with Gilbert.
Now that such a situation had happened, didn’t that mean she’d stop advancing and fall back at a certain stage?
If her cultivation level could no longer break through, her lifespan would be fixed, but she still did not wish to die a premature death.
She begged the old man to help her find a way. Eventually, she gritted her teeth and said Alex had mentioned a cultivation technique to turn immortal, Fair Maiden‘s Heart Sutra.
The old man’s eyes gleamed. “Fair Maiden’s Heart Sutra? Are you talking about the sutra that forms the Eight Desolated Killing Formation, created by Grand Emperor Rowan of the Stoermer Sect in ancient times?”
Claudia did not know about the origin within, but the old man almost stunned her when he told her of such an awesome background. She looked at Alex, dumbfounded.
Alex was pondering over True Martial Star-Shattering Punch while battling.
Then, he noticed something, this set of cultivation techniques required extremely high physical fitness. Luckily, Alex’s had very high endurance after his cells had been polished and evolved, and he could cultivate it successfully.
The intermittently appearing Undying Clan members and undead creatures had just become his test subjects.
“Attaining a new insight to truths. This is the realm you have to pursue at the moment.”
“Returning to one’s true self is the ultimate truth.”
“Use your heart to perceive every inch and cell of your body…”
The surviving old man from the True Martial Shrine enlightened Alex from time to time so he could understand it in his way and walk his way into battle.
That was the truth of martial cultivation.
