Immortal Cultivating Dynasty

Yang Xuan was shocked when he saw Chalham's unusual behavior. He instinctively took two steps forward and touched Chalham's forehead with his hand.    

"What's going on?"    

After sensing Chalham's condition, Yang Xuan frowned deeply.    

There was nothing wrong with Chalham's body. Well, it was not wrong to say that there was nothing wrong with his body. Chalham's injuries were still there, and his Qi Wheel was still in a state of paralysis due to the shock. It was impossible to recover in a short period of time, not to mention using the Spiritual Force to use martial skills or secret techniques.    

Yang Xuan was not surprised by Chalham's physical condition, because this kind of injury was caused by Yang Xuan's punch. The impact on Chalham was also within Yang Xuan's expectation. It ensured that Chalham would not be able to use the Spiritual Force in a short period of time. It wouldn't cost Chalham his life.    

Although Chalham's physical condition was within Yang Xuan's expectation, Chalham's mental state had completely exceeded Yang Xuan's scope of knowledge.    

His body was warm and soft, and the Spiritual Force in his body was circulating on its own. He was trying his best to recover the Qi Wheel that was a little sluggish after being hit by Yang Xuan. His breathing was even, and his body also had some instinctive reaction, but...    

Chalham himself seemed to have completely lost consciousness, and became a vegetable. His eyes were empty, and there was not the slightest emotional reaction.    

"What happened just now?"    

After checking Chalham's condition, Yang Xuan frowned deeply. He recalled everything that happened before and tried to find the source of Chalham's current condition.    

Very quickly, Yang Xuan found something suspicious.    

"No, no, you won't get anything. Even if you really know the secret technique of ghost cultivators, you won't get anything..."    

This was the last sentence Chalham said before he lost consciousness.    

In other words...    

"That's right, kid. Someone has placed a seal on this guy's body in advance." The Black Panther confirmed Yang Xuan's guess. "I can't tell exactly what kind of restriction it is. It should be a new technique invented by someone later. But the general principle should be similar to the previous generation's secret technique. "    

"What principle?" Yang Xuan asked curiously.    

"Basically, it is to arrange an exquisite small-scale formation in Chalham's mind in advance. Moreover, he has set up a mechanism similar to a keyword search mechanism. Once this mechanism is triggered, the restriction will be activated immediately."    

At this point, the Black Panther's tone paused. After Yang Xuan understood, he continued, "The most terrifying thing is that this switch mechanism does not use words or words as an opportunity. Instead, it uses a person's emotions or soul as the basis. As long as the person has the intention to reveal the secret, the restriction will immediately be activated, ending the person's life before the secret is revealed, or completely destroying the person's soul. "    

When Yang Xuan heard the Black Panther's words, he said with some regret, "That is to say, Chalham had the idea of revealing the secret earlier?"    

"No, you are thinking too much, kid." The Black Panther mercilessly denied Yang Xuan's guess. "Your superficial means aren't enough to make a Fourth Stage warrior surrender. This Chalham is another situation..."    

Speaking up to this point, the Black Panther's voice sounded somewhat strange, "He was driven mad by you, and his mind completely collapsed. That's why he triggered the reaction of the formation."    

Since the formation relied on one's mental energy, when one's mental energy completely collapsed, the formation would naturally be affected as well.    

Yang Xuan knew this common sense, but compared to this, Yang Xuan was more concerned about the other meaning of the Black Panther's words.    

"Crazy! You're saying that a dignified Fourth Stage warrior has completely collapsed after suffering such a little pain?" Yang Xuan couldn't believe his ears.    

The difficulty of cultivation was harder than reaching the heavens. Although Yang Xuan had seen many high grade cultivators in the past few days, the difficulty of the path of cultivation was unquestionable.    

In fact, for most of the people in this world, being able to step onto the path of cultivation was already considered a genius.    

Stepping onto the path of cultivation meant that one could cultivate the Spiritual Force. One could officially control the Spiritual Force to achieve all kinds of unimaginable powers. It could be said that every single person who stepped onto the path of cultivation was a proud son of heaven, one in a thousand miles.    

Although there were some people with poor temperaments on the path of cultivation, the vast majority of cultivators were elites with good aptitudes and temperaments.    

As for those who could reach the Second Stage, that was enough for them to dominate some small places. Third Stage warriors were the elites of the Great Wei, and they enjoyed all kinds of privileges and had a certain amount of influence.    

As for Fourth Stage warriors, they were even revered as great cultivators, and their status had improved by leaps and bounds compared to Third Stage warriors.    

The path of cultivation was filled with natural talent, disposition, and opportunities. Every single warrior who reached the Fourth Stage was an absolute genius. People like Liu Yi and Liu Qingsong, who were either meticulous in their thoughts, or knew how to make choices, or were good at reading people's hearts, were still stuck at the Third Stage after experiencing countless difficulties. They couldn't make any progress, and they couldn't see any hope of breaking through.    

This was enough to show how valuable a Fourth Stage was.    

As for the Barbarian Cultivator Chalham, he was a Fourth Stage great cultivator.    

Every Fourth Stage cultivator basically had a preliminary understanding of their 'Dao' after a long period of cultivation, and had a firm heart.    

For Fourth Stage cultivators, there were very few things that could shake their emotions, and even death wouldn't make them yield.    

However, the Chalham in front of Yang Xuan, a dignified Fourth Stage warrior, was forced to collapse because of a few words and a simple punch from Yang Xuan? This shouldn't be the behavior of a Fourth Stage cultivator.    

"Is this guy really a Fourth Stage warrior?" Yang Xuan felt a little ashamed of this guy's poor performance. How did this guy break through to the Fourth Stage?    

"Judging from his cultivation base, he is indeed a genuine Fourth Stage warrior, but..." The Black Panther extended its voice, purposely keeping him in suspense.    

"But what? Master Bao, hurry up and say it!" Yang Xuan still did not know about the Black Panther's temper, but when the Black Panther's voice sounded, Yang Xuan understood what it meant. He quickly opened his mouth and spoke with an attentive attitude.    

Seeing how cooperative Yang Xuan was, the Black Panther was coaxed until it was all smiles. It did not bother to keep him in suspense and directly solved the mystery. Although this guy's Spiritual Force is at the Fourth Stage level, his mental state is not even comparable to a Third Stage warrior. Furthermore, the vortex in his body is extremely unstable, and the Spiritual Force is also very messy. Judging from the quality alone, he is at the early Third Stage level. "    

"What do you mean?" Yang Xuan's expression was a little surprised.    

"That's right!" The Black Panther immediately confirmed Yang Xuan's guess, "This guy's Fourth Stage cultivation base has been used as an outsider.
