Chapter 68

Deng Ziqi asked in puzzlement, "I really don't know what a cultivator is, but what does that have to do with these things?" Ji Yunsheng said, "Cultivators are actually just like the ones written about in fantasy novels. It's just that in the past, due to the decline of Earth's spiritual energy, it became harder and harder for cultivators to break through their cultivation realms, causing them to fade from the public eye. The government also sealed off the information, so in the eyes of ordinary people, cultivators are just something fictional. But in reality, although there are very few cultivators on Earth, they do exist in everyday life. Because they are cultivators, ordinary people can't tell the difference between them and anyone else at all. People just think that those who live to a ripe old age do so because they practice martial arts, which gives them better physical fitness than ordinary people. But those are only low-realm cultivators. Compared to the ones with high cultivation realms, some people have already lived for hundreds of years. They usually cultivate deep in the mountains and forbidden zones and basically never come out, only occasionally emerging to understand the changes in the era before going back to cultivate." Deng Ziqi asked in surprise, "Don't they need to eat?"
