    🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Elder You smiled slightly, "Don't worry, this level won't kill you. But whether you can gain an opportunity depends on your fate." Li Tianyu took a deep breath and stepped into the fifth level. However, when he saw the scene before him, he was stunned. There was no sea of ​​blood, no giant beasts, no illusionary mind demons. There was only a simple room. The furnishings in the room were extremely simple: a bed, a table, and a chair. On the table was a book. Li Tianyu walked forward and picked up the book. The cover had seven large characters written on it—"Postpartum Care of Sows." "This…" He opened the book, which contained the most authentic method of postpartum care for sows. "This is the test of the fifth level?" Li Tianyu was somewhat puzzled. "That's right." Elder You's voice rang in his ears. "True strength often begins with the postpartum care of a sow. The Pangu Scripture is indeed powerful, but if you forget your roots, you're like a rootless duckweed." Li Tianyu was startled, then fell into deep thought. Back then, before transmigrating, he had no hope of becoming a special forces soldier. He tried to make money by writing novels, but his readership plummeted to zero. Finally, he joined a group of archaeologists to earn some extra cash, and that's how he transmigrated. When he first arrived in this world, he started as an ordinary outer disciple. At that time, he didn't even know what Yuan Qi was, and could only do odd jobs every day. Later, he accidentally obtained a fragment of the Pangu Scripture and began his true path of cultivation. But as his cultivation increased, he seemed to gradually forget his original self. "The…postpartum…care of a sow…" Li Tianyu murmured to himself, slowly closing his eyes. In his mind, those details he had once ignored gradually became clear. The flow of Qi through the meridians when drawing Qi into the body, the techniques for condensing Yuan Qi, the insights gained when breaking through realms… These most fundamental things, now revisited, brought entirely new understanding. "So that's it… The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Three gives birth to all things, and a sow gives birth to a whole litter!!!!!!!!!" He suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of enlightenment in them. "Ninth level of Yuan Qi Realm!" True Qi surged within him, his cultivation breaking through again, reaching the ninth level of the Yuan Qi Realm! And this wasn't the end. "Not enough… Giving birth to a whole litter isn't enough…" Li Tianyu murmured to himself, feeling the power within his body. "To break through the limits, what's needed isn't just a sow." He reopened the book, *Postpartum Care of Sows*, studying it word by word. Time passed second by second. He didn't know how much time had passed when Li Tianyu suddenly felt a strange fluctuation. "…That's right! The sow's own efforts alone are far from enough! It also needs…" He immediately sat down cross-legged. The *Pangu Scripture* within his body automatically activated, golden true Qi surging wildly like a burst dam. "The pig farmer's hard work!" It was as if something had shattered. Li Tianyu's aura suddenly surged to a whole new level. "Peak of the Yuan Qi Realm!" He succeeded! From the eighth level of the Yuan Qi Realm, he leaped to the peak of the Yuan Qi Realm! Even Elder You was shocked by this speed. "This child's future is boundless..." Elder You couldn't help but sigh, "Breaking through several realms in such a short time, even His Holiness the Pope of yesteryear couldn't match such talent." "The Pangu Scripture is indeed terrifying!"

    This is not a story of becoming an immortal, but an epic tale of cultivators.

Those who perished in the ancient times, those who transcended tribulations, were they defying fate, or were they searching for the glimmer of humanity extinguished by immortal arts? This book not only offers a thrilling adventure but also profound reflections on humanity and the meaning of life. Furthermore, it uses a blood-and-fire allegory of enlightenment to unveil the mysteries of humanity behind the cultivation civilization.
