Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 1435 - 574: Mixed Harvest of Joy and Worry [8,000-wo

The ghost of the middle-aged man before him was surprisingly not a Ghost Cultivator, which shocked Zhou Chun greatly.

In his understanding, only the legendary Ghost Cultivators could possibly retain self-awareness after thousands of years!

And Zhou Chun had only seen information about Ghost Cultivators in the classics he obtained after defeating a Demon Cultivator.

It is said to be a form of alternative longevity, with the lifespan of Ghost Cultivators often exceeding those of Cultivators of the sa rank by more than ten tis!

However, the Ghost Cultivation thod is extrely rare, and transforming into a Ghost Cultivator requires a high level of cultivation, at minimum the Purple Mansion Phase!

But according to the classics, even if a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator possesses the Ghost Cultivation thod and gathers the necessary Spiritual Objects for transformation, the success rate is less than ten percent!

The cultivators who have a relatively easier ti successfully transforming into Ghost Cultivators are those at the Nascent Soul Stage.

Once a cultivation level reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, given suitable conditions and the Ghost Cultivation thod, the success rate exceeds seventy percent. Upon success, one’s lifespan can extend to tens of thousands of years!

However, despite the long lifespan of Ghost Cultivators, there are many drawbacks.

Firstly, breaking through each major realm would invite a powerful tribulation, the power of which is several tis stronger than the tribulations encountered by the Demon Clan of the sa rank!

In such cases, once one transforms into a Ghost Cultivator, it is essentially equivalent to losing the potential for upward pursuit in the path of cultivation, as no Ghost Cultivator has ever survived such terrifying tribulations!

Secondly, Ghost Cultivators can only remain in the Land of Yin Fiend. Once they leave, their ghostly bodies will crumble due to losing the nourishnt of the Energy of Yin Fiend. Not only does their strength plumt, but their form and soul will also be extinguished after the ghost body collapses!

Such limitations result in cultivators becoming true "Earth-bound Spirits" once they transform into Ghost Cultivators, confined to small regions without freedom, a stark contrast to the freedom pursued in the Immortal Path.

Furthermore, Ghost Cultivators have other drawbacks, such as fearing sunlight, being countered by Thunder thods and True Fire with Yang attributes, being unable to enjoy food, and being unable to procreate, etc.!

In summary, even those cultivators who have mastered the Ghost Cultivation thod may be unwilling to truly transform into Ghost Cultivators.

During his life, Mystic Fiend True Person was a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator. If he mastered the Ghost Cultivation thod and transford before death, surviving until now while retaining mories would not be surprising.

Thus, when Zhou Chun discovered that the Yin Spirit Evil Ghost gradually gained independent consciousness under Thunder Cleaving and Fire Refining, and its aura began to change, he thought of Ghost Cultivation, assuming the middle-aged man’s ghost was Mystic Fiend True Person transford into a Ghost Cultivator.

Unexpectedly, it was not the case!

Surprised, Zhou Chun couldn’t help but directly ask, "Since you did not follow the Ghost Cultivation path, how can you retain consciousness till now, True Person?"

The question had a hint of offense.

However, the remaining soul of Mystic Fiend True Person before him was no match, with his life and death practically in Zhou Chun’s hands, so there was no need for Zhou Chun to hold back.

The ghost of the middle-aged man seed to understand this and was not offended by Zhou Chun’s question, simply replying blandly, "This, I do not know either. Perhaps the special environnt here grants my remaining soul so traits of Ghost Cultivation, or perhaps it is due to so mysterious technique I practiced during my lifeti!"

He didn’t seem to be lying and had no reason to lie.

This made Zhou Chun re-evaluate the situation here.

If it truly enables cultivators’ Divine Souls to undergo so natural transformation akin to Ghost Cultivation, then this place could indeed be considered a treasure land.

However, Zhou Chun leaned more towards the latter possibility.

After all, the middle-aged man’s ghost did say he was rely the remaining soul of Mystic Fiend True Person, having lost much mory.

Perhaps Mystic Fiend True Person had indeed seen the Ghost Cultivation thod and chose to transform upon death.

But now, there was no need to dwell on this, as asking more wouldn’t yield any results.

It would be better to ask practical questions!

So Zhou Chun quickly asked the middle-aged man’s ghost, "Does the True Person rember the experience of forming the Nascent Soul? Is there any Divine Skill or Secret Technique to impart to ? Do you rember the whereabouts of your storage pouch from before death?"

The Zhou Family had several Golden Core Stage Cultivators in their ancestry, so there were quite a few Core Formation experiences left.

But regarding experiences of Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant, there were none.

This knowledge was the secret of various powerful factions and would not be shared lightly.

Perhaps when Zhou Chun reaches the Golden Core Late Stage, he could exchange at great cost for so Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators’ Nascent Soul Experience, but the authenticity of exchanged experiences would always be questionable.

Hence, with a rare opportunity to gain insights on Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant, Zhou Chun would naturally prioritize obtaining it.

"Nascent Soul Experience? Indeed, I do rember so!"

The middle-aged man’s ghost said, as he requested a blank jade slip from Zhou Chun, imprinting his experiences from Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant onto it.

Then he added to Zhou Chun, "Regarding Divine Skills and Secret Techniques, I only rember a few commonly used during my lifeti. If you wish to learn, it would be a good thing, and would continue the legacy of this path!"
