Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck

Chapter 2



The person who had just whispered realized that they had said the wrong thing and did not speak again. For a short while, the courtyard became quiet once more.

As for Liang Sheng himself, there was no expression on his face at the moment, but there was no anger, only a bitter smile in his heart. After all, the other party was not wrong.

He was an innocent fool with a slow cultivation speed, a waste in their eyes. He could only hope that he would be able to live a life of leisure and wealth in this world.

Just then, there was a sudden creaking sound.

The doors of the Ancestral Hall slowly opened.

Walking at the front was the current Patriarch of the Liang Family, Liang Ping, Liang Sheng’s birth father. Liang Ping’s face was expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Liang Sheng was already prepared, but his heart was still somewhat uneasy, as the arrangement of his fate was about to begin.

“Sheng’er…”

Liang Sheng immediately stepped forward and bowed, raising his head to look at Liang Ping, waiting for him to make the final arrangement for him.

Behind Liang Ping were the influential figures of the Liang Family, the managerial clan elders. At this moment, their faces were serious, and there was no indication of what they were thinking from their expressions.

Just then, Liang Ping’s voice rang out again, and Liang Sheng’s heartbeat could not help but accelerate. How he would be arranged, the result would be revealed immediately.

“Today is your coming of age. From now on, you will follow your Second Uncle and learn to take charge of the family’s tavern business.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the younger generation of the Liang Family lit up in an instant. However, they quickly lowered their heads, the flames of desire burning in their eyes.

With the eldest son Liang Sheng being officially removed from the line of inheritance for the position of Patriarch, any of them now had the chance to occupy that position.

Their fists were clenched tightly without them realizing it.

“Sheng’er obeys father’s arrangement.”

For some reason, upon hearing his exact arrangement, Liang Sheng felt a sense of relief in his heart. Perhaps this was already the best arrangement for him.

Taking charge of the Liang Family’s outer sect tavern may not be that impressive for the main heir of the Liang Family, but it is still a prominent position in Jinzhou City, ensuring a life without any worries of food and clothing.

Liang Ping looked at Liang Sheng’s calm demeanor and couldn’t help but take a deep look at his good-for-nothing son. He didn’t expect him to have such a temperament. What a pity…

As the Liang Family’s patriarch, he had devoted a lot of resources to his son in his early years, but he truly had no talent for cultivation. Even an ordinary person would have broken through to the Postnatal Second Realm by now.

However, this was also good. Letting him manage the outer sect tavern could be considered to fulfill his father-son affection with him.

At this moment, Liang Ping turned to his brother, the current manager of the outer sect, Liang Qiang, and said, “Second brother, I will have to trouble you from now on.”

“Patriarch, don’t worry. I will teach Sheng’er well and ensure a smooth transition of the tavern management.”

Liang Ping nodded and said nothing else, making his way towards the exit of the Ancestral Hall. The various managerial clan elders followed behind him.

Before leaving, Liang Qiang specially waved at Liang Sheng, telling him to come to him when he was free, and that he would hand over the tavern’s affairs to him.

When Liang Ping left with the managers, the younger generation in the courtyard let out a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, their desires hidden by now.

“Big brother, when I go to the tavern to drink in the future, you have to take care of me, your little brother!”

This remark was like opening a floodgate, and in an instant, all the young generation from different branches had smiling faces when they looked at Liang Sheng.

After all, having a “brother” who isn’t a competitor and whose father is the current Patriarch, they should at least not have conflicts even if they don’t build good relationships.

Of course, their smiles were only on the surface at this moment, but who knows how many of them were genuine?

Liang Sheng also put on a smiling face, adopting a very humble attitude that made the Liang family’s younger generation somewhat uncomfortable.

The Liang Sheng of the past was difficult to get close to, but it seems that he has truly accepted reality and let go of his obsession now.

If it were them, changing from the Liang Family’s legitimate eldest son to a marginal figure, could they really be so calm and composed?

He could be considered a character, if only he had talent for cultivation.

For a short while, the atmosphere in the courtyard became more harmonious. Liang Sheng even made several promises, saying that after he officially takes over the tavern, all his brothers will be supportive.

That afternoon.

Liang Sheng went to find Liang Qiang and went to one of the most luxurious taverns in Jinzhou City, Shengde Building, the Tavern owned by Liang family to show his face.

Liang Qiang was initially surprised, not expecting Liang Sheng to come looking for him so quickly. But after the handover in the afternoon, his admiration for Liang Sheng increased.

Liang Sheng’s methods weren’t bad; he met the tavern manager first, gave rewards to everyone in the tavern, but also added a few rules, so it was both grace and force applied.

After such ups and downs, he was able to adjust his identity so quickly, which made him a character, but it was a pity that he lacked talent for cultivation. How could he cope?

Liang Qiang couldn’t help but think of himself and bitter-smiled; he was actually no different. What right did he have to pity Liang Sheng?

At this moment, under the same sentiment, he felt more warmth towards his nephew Liang Sheng. In this martial world where human relations are indifferent, warmth is all the more precious.

Liang Sheng naturally felt the change in Liang Qiang. Although he didn’t know why, it was ultimately a good thing, so how could he refuse?

Thus, the atmosphere between the uncle and nephew became even more harmonious.

Night.

At this moment, Liang Sheng was sitting on a cushion, and after a while, he opened his eyes with an expression of helplessness on his face.

As expected from an innocent child, the cultivation speed was so slow that it was infuriating. Tonight, after practicing the Golden Dragon Technique and completing the Grand Circulation, there was almost no effect.

After confirming through the panel that his cultivation progress was almost zero, he could only accept his fate, even if he was unwilling.

No matter what kind of technique is practiced in this world, there is a corresponding number of circulations for each realm. The previous body was desperate and forced to continue circulating the Qi under its limit, which led to its death due to deviation.

Liang Sheng, naturally, learned the lesson and dared not force the circulation anymore. However, he couldn’t waste the long night either, so he started practicing the Health Cultivation Method, the Longevity Skill, that he had just obtained.

Health Cultivation Methods are as common as hair in this world but are not mainstream, as martial strength is paramount in this world.

If a cultivator lacks strength, what’s the point of living longer? Moreover, health cultivation methods also have limits, and if one doesn’t reach the perfect realm, it’s unknown how many years of life can be added.

Therefore, health cultivation methods belong to the simplest and easiest to practice techniques, but there are still bottlenecks to overcome for each breakthrough.

If someone spends a lot of time practicing health cultivation methods, they may not gain much in this martial world. After all, increasing one’s strength is the top priority.

And who among the martial cultivators in the early stages of cultivation would choose such a mediocre and unimpressive health cultivation method?

Perhaps only old monsters with near-end lifespans would practice health cultivation methods when their martial path has already been broken.

To live a few more years counts as a few more years…
