Chapter 78 Path to Immortality
After Luis returned, he directly entered seclusion.
Sitting in a meditative position, he closed his eyes and focused deeply. Within moments, he felt colorful particles manifesting inside his body, swirling gently like tiny fragments of light.
He carefully guided these particles toward his heart, where his Life Seed held its deepest connection.
For the past seven days, Luis had been diligently gathering these particles, storing them within his body. This time, the particles didn't dissipate like before.
He could sense that the energy within his heart had finally reached a critical point, a culmination of patient effort and focused concentration.
'It's time,'
He began to run the Five Elements Immortal Technique, circulating the energy in his body according to the method.
The process was delicate, requiring absolute focus. The colorful particles moved smoothly through his meridians, flowing into his heart.
Six hours later, Luis opened his eyes with an uncontrollable smile spreading across his face.
He has done it—he has officially entered the path of immortality.
He has officially entered the path to immortality. The life seed in his body seemed to evolve and turned into a small sapling. It's roots extending and being connected to the meridians of his whole body.
The Life seed had mutated and finally became something unrecognizable that needs to explored.
His body was filled with so much life force that he couldn't help but sigh with contentment.
He stood up, his body feeling lighter and stronger than ever. He headed outside with a smile and mounted on Blacky.
There was no time to waste—he needed to see just how much stronger he had become.
In just a short time, he quickly reached inside the wilderness.
He mobilized the new energy outside his body. As the energy appeared the air instantly became distorted.
Holding the energy, he flew into the sky through the flying boat and threw it at a random direction.
"Boom!"
The moment the energy struck the ground, a deafening explosion shook the air, and a massive hole appeared where the blast had hit. Dirt and debris flew in every direction, leaving a gaping crater in the earth.
Luis looked at this with shock, no wonder Han Mo said Immortal Cultivators Look down on those who practice Martial Arts. Just being in Early stage Qi refining realm is comparable to Innate realm master which takes decades of practice.
After the initial shock wore off, Luis felt a rush of excitement. He mounted Blacky once more and turned back toward Anyu Town.
He needs to spread this good news to his people.

"You've truly succeeded, son. With this new power, you can defeat me with ease,"
Felipe said, his voice filled with a mix of pride and surprise as he blocked another punch from Luis during their sparring session. Explore stories on empire
Luis barely flinched as his father was pushed back once again after each of their collisions. They both held back, not using their full strength. But the gap between them was clear.
"Father, I think it's time we organized the realms properly," Luis said, throwing another punch, this time without channeling any of his body energy.
His raw physical strength alone was enough to challenge Felipe.
"Using the realms from both worlds is confusing. We need a system that works for us."
"Yeah! Now you can bring that Han Mo under his command." Felipe took a deep breath and said as he fully mobilized his vortex qi and punched back.
For a moment, it seemed like they were at a stalemate—both of them straining against each other's strength.
But then, with a loud impact, Luis was forced back two steps, while Felipe skidded nearly six steps before stopping.
"Don't hold back, Father. I can tell you're hiding something," Luis said with a playful smirk as he charged at Felipe again, their fists colliding with powerful force.
"You're the one holding back," Felipe replied, dodging Luis' strike with a swift sidestep. "Your energy seems endless."
Luis grinned, knowing his father was right. With the Vortex within him his energy is truly endless.
"Alright, son," Felipe said, stepping back.
"Be careful now. I'll use my ultimate move. If you can block this, you win." His eyes narrowed with focus as he prepared to release his strongest attack.
"Come on, i will take your attack head on" Luis said proudly as he crossed his arms and planted his feet firmly on the ground.
"Just remember, this move's power is almost as strong as a 4th-stage official knight's attack. Don't underestimate it."
With that, Felipe's entire aura changed. He gathered all of his vortex qi, his body radiating with an intense energy. The air around them seemed to ripple as his power surged.
Then, with a swift motion he slashed the energy towards Luis. It flew towards Luis like a thunderstorm.
'This attack... he really didn't hold back,' Luis thought, right as the impact hit him with full force.
The energy blast sent him flying across the training ground, smashing through a solid stone wall like it was paper. He crashed hard into the ground, leaving a deep crater in the rubble.
Felipe stood still for a moment, his eyes wide with shock.
"Why did you face the attack with your physical body? Didnt i warn you" he said, shaking his head in disbelief.
Seeing his son lying on the ground, blood oozing from a deep gash on his chest, Felipe's heart raced. He quickly rushed over, worry etched across his face.
"Luis!" Felipe called out as he knelt beside his son, reaching out to lift him.
But before Felipe could touch him, Luis suddenly opened his eyes and grinned.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"That was such a strong attack, Father," he said, his voice calm as if nothing had happened. Slowly, he stood up, brushing off the dust.
Felipe's eyes widened in shock watching all the things happening right now.
Right before his eyes, the wound on Luis' chest began to heal. Granulation tissue formed over the injury, and within seconds, the deep gash disappeared as if it had never been there.
"This... such an injury... healed so quickly?"
