My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1388 - 1278
Li Fan was startled upon hearing this, "How could this be? Could it be that the Xuanhuang World has some relationship with the legendary Immortal World mentioned in the tales?"
Ai Tianjue’s tone was inexplicably mysterious, "Hehe, it’s uncertain, all so uncertain! The history of the Xuanhuang World is indeed quite interesting. Once we dig out more from Lan Yu’s head, those old fogies might just change their minds."
"It’s just that I don’t know whether this will be a blessing or a curse for my Immortal Boat."
After a moment of silence, Ai Tianjue began to formally instruct Li Fan.
Calling him teacher repeatedly was certainly not in vain.
Without the restrictions of Incompatible Cultivation, the legacy passed between master and disciple here was all about the genuine mystique.
Having been accepted as a disciple under Ai Tianjue for five years, Li Fan gained his recognition and was taught the [Jade Void Inner Landscape Spirit Crying Technique].
This Mysterious Skill was also the fundamental technique that Ai Tianjue himself cultivated.
"Water and Fire Reversing Qiankun, the Mysterious Skill of Jade Void is marvelous. Azure Sea refines the true void; weeping spirits transform into Divine Techniques..."
Holding a glowing book, Ai Tianjue slowly read the contents of the [Jade Void Inner Landscape Spirit Crying Technique], while Li Fan silently followed along.
It appeared to be merely a word-by-word recitation with no detailed explanation, but as Ai Tianjue’s rising and falling intonations, almost like a melody of the Great Way, entered his ears, various insights about the [Spirit Crying Technique] naturally appeared in Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness.
This method of teaching was, in fact, also a commonly used instructional technique on the Immortal Boat.
Or rather than calling it a technique, it was more like a Divine Technique, known as [All Beings Awake].
It was said to be scavenged from the Star Sea Remnants by the Immortal Boat, greatly alleviating the difficulty of teaching and heritage within the Immortal Boat. Once introduced, it received high praise and became popular within the boat.
The teaching effectiveness of [All Beings Awake] deeply related to the qualifications and comprehension skills of the teacher and student.
As one of the top strongmen of the Broken Immortal Tower, Ai Tianjue had profound research on True Immortal Seal Characters; his capability was beyond doubt.
And the body of Zhao Xian, which Li Fan inhabited, was certainly not lacking in qualifications. Coupled with Li Fan’s many years of reincarnation and extensive knowledge, his progress in cultivating the [Spirit Crying Technique] was rapid.
The [Jade Void Inner Landscape Spirit Crying Technique] was a supreme Divine Technique that had been passed down through the Mystic Immortal Boat since ancient times. It was rumored to have been exchanged with a Supreme Treasure and a major cultivating immortality sect of a Great World during an era when the Ancient Immortal Paths were not yet severed.
The inhabitants of the Mystic Commerce Immortal Vessel, constantly traversing the Star Sea, living nomadically and finding it difficult to truly immerse in cultivation.
Yet, this Spirit Crying Technique was the perfect solution for these two major issues.
The essence of the technique was to construct an inner landscape Heaven and Earth within one’s Divine Soul.
Within this inner landscape Heaven and Earth, one would cultivate through weeping. To weep is to cry.
The Spirit Crying is not about crying during cultivation but mimicking the naturally smooth sensation that arises spontaneously from the heart when humans instinctively cry.
Over time, everything within the inner landscape Heaven and Earth becomes responsive to the heart’s will.
With other techniques, as one’s realm increases, the speed of cultivation gradually slows down. However, with the Spirit Crying Technique, the initial progress is very slow, requiring experience and genuinely establishing an emotional connection with one’s inner landscape Heaven and Earth. The further you progress, the faster cultivation becomes.
The Spirit Crying Technique does not require seclusion; even in just half a day’s work, one could deepen the emotional connection with the inner landscape Heaven and Earth. It is also more suitable for those who are intellectually nimble and emotionally delicate.
Although Li Fan could not recall the last time he had cried, it was not a difficult task for Master Li, who could turn the false into the true, to simulate the emotional fluctuations associated with crying.
It was unclear how the other disciples under Ai Tianjue were progressing, but the fact that Ai Tianjue always had Li Fan attend class individually was enough to show how much he valued him.
After half a day had passed, Ai Tianjue finally finished reciting the Spirit Crying Technique. He took a deep breath, and the sweat on his forehead instantly evaporated.
Li Fan, still with his eyes closed, seemed to be immersed in the lessons imparted by Ai Tianjue’s words and guidance.
"Is there anything you do not understand?" asked Ai Tianjue.
"The student has fully grasped everything," Li Fan replied in a deep voice.
Ai Tianjue nodded slightly with a look of approval, "After you return, you must recite daily and never neglect it. Your cultivation of the Spirit Crying Technique has reached the most critical period. Once the inner landscape Heaven and Earth takes form, with thoughts following your will, perhaps in less than half a year you might catch up with me."
Li Fan nodded in agreement.
Ai Tianjue continued to caution, "Although the mainstream belief within the Immortal Boat is that studying True Immortal Seal Characters is essential, you must also remember that the realm and strength are the basis for exploration and comprehension. Without a solid foundation, even if you manage to reach stratospheric heights by chance, there’s always the risk of falling to your death from such heights..."

Ai Tianjue rambled on, even coming across as a bit tedious.
However, this was exactly what every mentor within the Mystic Immortal Boat would do.
Li Fan bowed respectfully, took his leave, and thought to himself: "True mentorship consists of earnest care, and true discipleship involves sincere reverence. This is the genuine lineage that has been the foundation of the Mystic Immortal Boat for thousands of years. All the Immortal Axis Institute, the Broken Immortal Tower, are but mere facades. The true essence lies in these master-disciple lineages."
Stepping out from Ai Tianjue’s residence, Li Fan did not directly leave the Broken Immortal Tower.
He turned to visit another Elder.
Chi Gongdao.
Although Li Fan did not have a direct mentor-disciple relationship with Elder Chi, he had earned the latter’s appreciation through several unique insights into the True Immortal Seal Characters.
Unlike the somewhat "traditional" Ai Tianjue, Elder Chi Gongdao was unquestionably part of the radical faction in the Immortal Boat.
He advocated for discarding all foundational techniques and devoting oneself entirely to the True Immortal Seal Characters.
