A cultivator's cultivation realm was divided into nine stages.
They were, Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Primal Core, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Formation, Dao Fetus, Dao Body, and Mahayana.
According to Qiankun Pagoda's analysis, Qi Cultivation was equivalent to this world's apprentice level and low-level professional stage, Foundation Establishment and Primal Core were equivalent to mid-level professional stage, and Golden Core was equivalent to high-level professional stage.
From Primal Core to Golden Core was the first major juncture in a cultivator's cultivation path.
To cross this juncture, there was a very important prerequisite, and that was the Dao Heart had reached the Heart of Glazed Glass.
Cultivators in the Qi Cultivation stage would also cultivate their soul, but like mages, it was only to improve their soul, which was the quantity of their mental energy, and not the quality, which was the so-called Dao Heart.
At the Foundation Establishment stage, cultivators' cultivation and mages' cultivation would diverge, and they would begin to focus on the dual cultivation of their soul, and at the same time, they would focus on training their Dao Heart.
After cultivators successfully condensed their Primal Core, the improvement of the quantity of their soul would become less important, and most of their energy would be focused on training their Dao Heart.
There was a saying in the cultivation world, "Out of a hundred people who form their Gold Core, out of ten, nine have the Heart of Glazed Glass."
From this, it could be seen how important the Heart of Glazed Glass was to condense the Golden Core.
And this woman in front of him had the quality of mental energy equivalent to the Heart of Glazed Glass.
This conclusion also made Feng Chou feel that it was inconceivable, as far as he knew, the warrior's cultivation in this world did not involve the soul, could it be that this woman also knew cultivation techniques?
Feng Chou asked Qiankun Pagoda, "Is it possible that this woman's innate mental energy is of such high quality?"
Qiankun Pagoda said resolutely, "Impossible!"
He told Feng Chou, "Among ordinary people, of course there are those with innate mental energy of extremely high quality, these people are the so-called cultivation geniuses, you were such a genius in the past, not only was your mental energy strength more than twice that of ordinary people, its quality was also more than two and a half times that of ordinary people.
But this is already an extremely rare genius, and this kind of genius is still worlds apart from the Heart of Glazed Glass. "
"If the mental energy of ordinary people is measured, the quality of the Heart of Glazed Glass's mental energy is at least twenty times that of ordinary people, this is definitely not innate. If this is innate, it is simply equivalent to some tall people among humans, who are born to be more than thirty meters tall."
"Therefore, this woman must have a Dao Heart cultivation technique!" Qiankun Pagoda concluded.
Qiankun Pagoda also told Feng Chou, "With the improvement of the Dao Heart, a cultivator's perception will also improve, but this woman's mental energy is almost completely restrained within her body, she does not take the initiative to contact the outside world, therefore, she has an innate perception, that is, towards her own body, her own strength, which ordinary people can't reach, the sharper the perception, the sharper the control, so this woman's control of her own strength must have reached an extremely terrifying level."
"Although this woman's perception is completely inward, her mental energy is far more penetrating and sensitive than ordinary people, so she will unknowingly have a keen sense of the outside world, just like premonitions or whims, this will allow this woman to have some mysterious divine performance in battle, or to avoid danger and attacks on whims."
"Master, I suggest that you must get this woman's Dao Heart cultivation technique, this is related to whether you can restore the cultivator's cultivation technique in this world!"
Feng Chou disagreed with Qiankun Pagoda's suggestion, he didn't feel that restoring the cultivator's cultivation technique was something necessary, after all, he didn't even understand the sorcerers of this world, and there was also the Sword of Damocles hanging over his head, he didn't have the time to restore some cultivator's cultivation technique.
Therefore, he hummed and laughed and fooled Qiankun Pagoda.
But it was also because of this that Feng Chou had a deep impression of the only female mercenary in the Salma Mercenary Group.
In the end, this female mercenary named Natasha was arranged to be next door to Feng Chou by the captain's secretary, Josie.
Out of courtesy, Feng Chou invited Natasha to have lunch with him.
Maybe because she was really hungry, or maybe because she was in a good mood after changing cabins, she didn't reject Feng Chou's invitation.
Feng Chou ordered roast lamb chops, foie gras, fried scallops, and stewed sausages, Natasha ordered onion soup, chicken liver steak, and red wine pheasant.
She seemed to be very familiar with the food she ordered. She only glanced at the menu and said what she wanted.
It should be noted that the dishes on the menu weren't just any home-cooked dishes. They were all famous dishes from Ovendell. They weren't something ordinary people could afford to eat, let alone eat them regularly. To be honest, even Leo wasn't familiar with these dishes.
This wasn't considered a formal meal, even on land it would cost more than a dozen crowns, and on the ship, the price would double.
Obviously, this female mercenary's background was not ordinary.
While waiting for their food, the two of them chatted casually.
Soon, Qiankun Pagoda analyzed the woman's background from some scattered information revealed by the other party's words.
She came from the North, most likely from the Sutton Empire in the North, a noble descendant near the Moradin Mountains.
He determined that she came from the North because this woman mentioned the snowy mountains, dwarves, and halflings more than once in their conversation.
He determined that she was from the Sutton Empire because she was a follower of the Lord of War. Although the Ovendell Empire also had followers of the Lord of War, very few nobles believed in the Lord of War.
The nobles of the Sutton Empire … … had powerful spiritual force … … and had far more control over their own strength than ordinary warriors … …
Feng Chou suddenly had a rough understanding of the cultivation method that Qiankun Pagoda had been constantly thinking about.
The two of them had a very pleasant lunch. After Feng Chou paid the bill, the two of them met Sir Bishopp on the way back to their cabins.
This knight obviously still remembered Feng Chou, he looked at him with astonishment.
Feng Chou smiled slightly, took off his hat, and greeted Sir Bishopp, "Hello, esteemed Sir Bishopp, we meet again."
"Please forgive me for not telling you the truth that day. I am Baron Amborite's attendant. My master is very optimistic about the development of Benedict Domain, so he hopes to obtain at least one knight's fief in this new domain. He sent me to be in charge of purchasing the silver coins for this development."
Sir Bishopp showed a look of understanding when he heard this. He nodded and said, "Well then, I wish you success."
"Thank you!"
The two of them passed by each other. Natasha said to Feng Chou with some envy, "Your master must be a rich Baron.
It's not cheap to develop a knight's fief. "
Feng Chou said, "Of course, my master is the richest Baron in the Amborite County. His fief is envied by many viscounts. His fief can produce 150,000 crowns of annual income every year."
Natasha let out an inexplicable sigh when she heard this.
