Walker Of The Worlds

The wisp of immortal essence entered from Lin Mu's chest and created some pressure.

Lin Mu found the Immortal essence to be a lot heavier than Immortal Qi. At the same time, the Immortal essence was vibrant and sent waves of comfort in his body.

'So this is the next level of Vital essence... Immortal Essence...' Lin Mu thought to himself.

The difference between the two was quite vast, despite being in the same category of energy.

Every normal creature in the universe would generate its own Vital Energy. This was something that was part of the natural order, and there were very few exceptions to it.

Only when a creature reached a certain cultivation base or strength, would it naturally start to generate Vital essence. Vital essence was a highly compressed and refined form of Vital Energy and was a lot more difficult to handle.

If a weak body obtained Vital Essence and was unable to contain it, there was a chance that they might just explode. This was also why one needed to strengthen their body a lot before Vital Essence could be used.

But even then, this vital essence would either have to be obtained from external sources or manually refined in one's body. Only when one reached a certain baseline would their body naturally make Vital Essence from the start.

Lin Mu was at this juncture, and all the vital energy in his body would automatically be turned into Vital Essence. All his cells were filled to the brim with it and provided him with great vitality and stamina.

But even if one used Vital Essence to cultivate their body, there was a limit to it. After a certain point, their body would not improve no matter how much vital essence they obtained and there was a chance they would end up harming themselves too.

At this point, one needed to sublimate their Vital Essence to a higher form of energy, which was the Immortal Essence.

But doing so was impossible for a lot of creatures. Only those with special bloodlines or certain types of beasts could do this naturally.

For humans, this was not possible either.

If they wanted to cultivate further, they needed to obtain Immortal essence from external sources and then refine it into their body. This could be obtained from Immortal Essence crystal, special fruits and herbs, as well as by consuming other creatures.

And if a human wanted to naturally generate Immortal Essence, they needed to fulfill several conditions. The main one being an immortal constitution.

Thus, unless one was born with it, they could only acquire one though hard work and cultivation. And this is where the body cultivation techniques came into play.
