In a new era would appear extremely prosperous at the beginning, but when various other factors were included within it, it would start becoming polluted.
Just like Spirit City, the items that were sold in the Spirit City used to be simple and pure, those that were displayed for sale were treasures that were naturally filled with Qi, at the very least.
However, as time progressed, fake goods began appearing in Spirit City, and some people were able to make a great profit at a very small cost. Such methods of making money would certainly attract the attention of others.
Which eventually led to Spirit City being filled with people of all sorts, and all sorts of activities were conducted in there.
Henry checked out the so-called super skills and that leaked secret sword skills of the Sword Valley. They were all showy movements and were practically absolute rubbish, but it was things like these that often attracted the crowd.
On the contrary, there was a manual for basic swordsmanship, its style was very unique, and seemed deep and abstract. The moves in it looked straightforward and simple, without any fancy movements, but within it was a very profound technique, yet no one was interested in it.
Henry saw many youngsters pointing and gesturing as gathered around the flashy sword techniques. It was understandable that these people were not in pursuit of power, and also knew that those sword skills were not powerful. They were simply attracted by how cool the movements were.
Henry also checked out some of the so- called supreme Qi cultivation methods. There were some that were pretty good. One stall had many people gathered in front of it. The owner of the stall was giving an explanation about the item in his hand; it was a manual about the method of Qi cultivation.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is known that in the beginning, there were not just only Qi Practitioners, there were also Physical Cultivators who were exceptionally powerful. Physical Cultivators did not rely on True Spirits, and were even strong enough to tear them apart with their bare hands. Their bodies would not decay after more than ten years of their deaths. However, too little physical cultivation techniques existed, and every single one was a great secret. As a result, the Physical Cultivators gradually ceased to exist. However, today, I have a cultivation technique from a Physical Cultivator of the Supremacy Master stage, and now, I shall show you the first two pages of it."
There was a big screen behind the stall owner. The contents of the first two pages of this cultivation method were clearly displayed on the screen.
The people who gathered around his stall stared at the contents of the cultivation method and sighed deeply.
"My God, this cultivation method is torture!"
"Who can survive that?"
"After three to five years of practice, one may still be unable to control Qi. Only fools would go as far to do that!"
"But if you complete the training successfully, imagine how powerful you'd become."
"Powerful? You'd first have to complete the training, and when there's a fight, you'd have to fight alone, like those barbarians who love fighting. How horrid!"
Henry heard these comments and could not help shaking his head.
The contents of the first two pages of the physical cultivation technique of the Supremacy Master were simply the basics of tempering one's body, which allowed the body to become stronger, and boost the energy flow within the blood vessels and muscles, in order to achieve the similar effect of absorbing Qi into the body.
For Henry who practiced the World Destruction Technique, those cultivation methods were basically just a breeze. He could not imagine it being any easier, but in the eyes of those in the Core, it was painful and unbearable.
Compared with the Surface, the advantage of the Core was that they had a complete system for the practice of Qi. Everyone only needed to practice it according to that system. The talented would be capable of greatness, while the less talented would just live their lives ordinarily.
However, on the Surface, although there was not a complete system for practicing Qi, all of those who had set foot on the path of the cultivation of Qi had their own ideas. Compared to the people of the core, they were more desperate and hungry for power, and were able to uncover their potential to the fullest and could withstand the trial of suffering better.
