Even his power to control and use spiritual energy to attack wouldn't be enough to make up for the difference in their capabilities. In other words, he would be thoroughly defeated with no hope of being able to win, much less survive if they were mortal enemies.

"Even if he doesn't break through the limit of martial arts, he can still stack different types of body cultivation methods and martial art techniques. That way, he would be unbeatable by any mortal martial artist." Yoze's heart tightened as the possibility that there were going to be immortals and demons that knew martial arts had increased dramatically.

"I guess I don't need to give you my backstory since everyone is doing it for me. But I'll give you the cliff notes so that we can be acquaintances."

"My name is Geo Stone, and I was a well-known Blood Master rank martial artist in my small town before I was discovered by one of the traveling immortals from the Immortal Shadow Sect."

"It was quite the story indeed. I am sure that you would find it interesting, but since we are in a tournament of sorts, I'll tell you later. After I was discovered, I too felt that it was simply unfair that martial arts were given up too quickly by immortals."

"And their disdain was unfounded. But the longer I cultivated, and the stronger I became, the more I realized that I stopped relying on my martial arts skills to defeat my enemies."

"A simple spell did the trick, and with a single sneeze, I could turn the Martial Grandmasters that I viewed so highly in the past into dust. It simply had become too much of a burden." Geo's deep voice held a hint of sorrow as he continued to tell his story.

Even though Yoze couldn't see Geo's expression, he could imagine how disappointed he was to find out that the passion that he had spent several decades training in was completely useless.

He didn't know how he would have reacted if he did not have a cheat, which allowed him to become more talented with time. And had spent all his blood, sweat, and tears for several decades only to find out that Tiki and Dreyer were stronger than him.

Hearing Geo's painful realization about the truth of this world made Yoze sympathetic, and he felt a bit of kinship between them.

"But the day I reached the Crystal Brain realm, I had a realization. As an immortal cultivator, I was as trash as those same martial artists that were looked down upon when compared to immortals and demons."

"There simply was no difference between the two. And since there is no difference between the two when it comes to the highest powers, why not combine the two?"

"With infinite time and the magical powers of Immortal cultivators, I could modify and strengthen my body in ways that I could only dream of when I was a martial artist. That way, physically, I would dominate all other immortal cultivators, and my spells would become more lethal."

"One mistake from my enemies: I can react far faster than any other immortal cultivator and turn the situation around. The marriage between the two powers might seem to have no connection, but the marriage of the two will work wonders."

"Don't you believe so, too, Yoze? We share the same origin and share the same dream of raising the reputation of martial arts."

"That way, martial artists will no longer be looked down upon, and everyone in the past viewed it like trash will have to scramble to incorporate it into their toolkit. Or else they will fall behind and find themselves slaughtered like a farm animal." As Geo continued to speak, his sorrow disappeared like smoke, replaced with hope and a strong desire to be recognized.

"What the hell is he talking about? Combining martial arts with immortal cultivation is the same as adding a drop of water into the ocean, insignificant." 

"Yoze might be strong, but it has to be partially due to him putting a lot of focus on modifying and strengthening his body. I know that there are only a few martial artists that are as strong as him. "

"And look at him. He is still stuck in the Nerve Accumulation realm because of how much crystal energy he wasted. If we try to follow his example, we will never be able to become immortals before we die from old age." 

Dozens of immortal cultivators from both the Immortal Shadow Sect and the Immortal Palace Sect growled as they rejected Geo's proposal. Even though only a few immortal cultivators were verbally rejecting the idea, the majority of people silently agreed with them.

It wasn't like this idea wasn't proposed before, but the number of immortal cultivators that could make this combination successful was few. It was simply a problem with time and talent.

Without good talent in immortal cultivation, no one would bother to even consider splitting a large amount of their precious time to also practice martial arts. What was even more absurd was that even if one had good talent in both immortal cultivation and martial arts, there still wasn't enough time to be an expert in both fields.

An example of this was with Geo himself; he is talented in both martial arts and immortal cultivation, yet even after several decades, he hadn't broken through to the Martial Grandmaster realm. This meant that all his progress was due to immortal cultivation and only spending a small fraction of his time keeping his martial art skills.

For people like them who only had decent talent in immortal cultivation and no talent at all in martial arts, it was a death sentence to try. Only once they became immortals and had infinite time could they afford to place an equal amount of time training in martial arts.

But at that point, they were so powerful that martial arts truly was like tossing a water droplet into the ocean.
