Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 1001 - 85: Matter Settled, Questions Raised
The tall and imposing Berserker wielding a blood-stained sawtooth battle axe swung the ominous weapon in his hand and let out a fierce roar.
"Blood Sacrifice Blood God! Skull Tribute Skull Throne! Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment!"
"Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment!"
"Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment!"
This shout was not a physical sound produced by the vibration of vocal cords in the air, but rather a more spiritual "Heart Sound." It resonated directly within everyone's consciousness. All felt their hearts and minds shake, their courage subdued, and unconsciously began to slowly retreat. The many cultivators beneath Spirit Phoenix Island faintly felt the mana within their bodies lose control, unable to suppress it.
——This is... the might of the Mahayana Realm...
——He actually broke through the final realm? How is this possible...
At this moment, Guan Wuji's Swallowing World Battle Armor had been fully repaired, and he roared, boldly counterattacking with a powerful spiritual body behind him. Instantly, the situation completely reversed. Cultivators under the Holy Emperor Venerable were all intimidated by the terror and torture emanating from Guan Wuji, unable to exert their full strength, in extreme embarrassment.
However, Guan Wuji had no intention of killing at this time. As he fought and retreated, he quickly reached the outskirts of Spirit Phoenix Island's waters. Unification Stage cultivators saw this and rushed forward, attempting to stop Guan Wuji.
While his subordinates were all in a crisis, the Holy Emperor Venerable's eyes flickered, observing Guan Wuji and deducing his origins based on his displayed law.
We cannot rashly conclude he's a Heterodox just because of "absorbing Outer Heaven Spiritual Energy!"
The Divine Spirit is the control core of the Divine Tao System. This was Wang Qi's research conclusion. The newly born god and artificial god, Great Capital Governor, also proved this point. After analyzing the Holy Emperor Venerable's parasitic Divine Spirit method, for Wang Qi, creating a Divine Spirit was not too difficult.
It can even be said that the "Xia Gai Demon Worm" he completed at the Foundation Establishment Stage also belongs to this category of "Divine Spirit." However, the complexity and power of the Heart Demon Curse Spirit are inferior to a true Divine Spirit, that's all.
However, "creating a Divine Spirit" is equivalent to making a Divine Tao CPU. To make this core work, one must find a Human Dao System and "install" the Divine Spirit into it.
The Divine Spirit created by Wang Qi can't directly possess Divine Tao Power.
Alienated Human Dao System—Divine Tao System, along with the Divine Spirit, is what truly gives rise to a Divine Tao Cultivator.
Therefore, Wang Qi naturally set his sights on Spirit Phoenix Island's Human Dao System.
From the start, he determined a plan to usurp the Human Dao Power of Spirit Phoenix Island.
And this time, Guan Wuji is an experiment.
"When exactly did he do it..." The Holy Emperor Venerable closed his eyes, carefully sensing within his Divine Country. Soon, he discovered a terrifying power. Green resentful flames were eroding the Human Dao along the Karma Line, and the Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao was the first to fall.
The ordinary disciples of Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao were unaware, but they were actually standing at the edge of a cliff.
Heart Demon Curse's Netherworld Fire Spell!
"Did he inadvertently sprinkle such a mysterious spell during the breakthrough? Outstanding..."
——Wang Qi did not provide any external force this time, relying solely on the ring he connected to Guan Wuji to deal with it. The Netherworld Fire Spell was also something he planted in advance.
The Holy Emperor Venerable could feel that this guy borrowed this secret technique to extract the power of his Divine Country, harnessing it through the cause and extinction of mortals on the island, enhancing himself, exceptionally brilliant!
"This certainly isn't Guan Wuji's own capability. If he truly had this power, there would be no need for the Wuji Sky Sect to remain hidden; they could have taken the foundation of the Holy Infant Sect thousands of years ago!"
The Holy Emperor Venerable's eyes widened, with bright silver and dark gold lights respectively emanating from his eyes. Blessed by the Great Wilderness God and Longevity Heaven Divine Power, he saw through Guan Wuji's heavily enchanted, tainting Divine Thought Swallowing World Battle Armor. The badge of Qingfu True God flashed behind him, and his gaze locked directly on the ring on Guan Wuji's right index finger.
"This ring... No, its internal structure is too complex. Although essentially a mundane object, it is not simple!"
After identifying the reason, the Holy Emperor Venerable hesitated no longer. He extended his hand, grasping at Guan Wuji from afar. Though his fingers merely sliced through the air, Guan Wuji distinctly felt himself being pinched by an invisible giant hand. Guan Wuji roared, and the blood-colored spiritual body behind him roared as well. They howled, shouting, "Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment!"
"If it's only this level of strength, it's insufficient to be arrogant in front of me!"
The Holy Emperor Venerable snorted coldly and squeezed forcefully.
A Mahayana Realm level Divine Spirit was directly crushed by him.
Yes, directly crushed. That mysterious blood-colored Divine Spirit exploded into a blood-red mist. And Guan Wuji was also crushed into a pool of blood mist. The two mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish which was the light mist shaped by Divine Power and which was the flesh and blood of Guan Wuji.
Strangely, Guan Wuji's ring was completely unharmed. The raw material of the ring, Heavenly Gang Silver, is indeed a good refining material, but it is not known for its strength. Even a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator can bend it with sheer physical brute force without any other refining materials added. Yet under the deliberate control of the Holy Emperor Venerable, this ring remained unscathed during the recent powerful attack.
The Holy Emperor Venerable held the ring, choosing not to inspect it immediately, but instead to suppress and extinguish the Heart Demon Curse Power within the Divine Country.
This invasion did not last long. The support of the Divine Country's power only allowed Guan Wuji's strength to break through that final boundary. Ultimately, not much Heart Demon Curse Power infiltrated the Human Dao on Spirit Phoenix Island. In a few minutes, the Holy Emperor Venerable had cleared all the linked Karma Lines clean.
The Holy Emperor Venerable warned his other subordinates: "Beware of the power of that Guan Wuji. He's controlled by Outer Demons, has entered into madness, and his mana can erode others. Do not underestimate him."
However, he only pointed this out. Unification Stage Cultivators have long completed Divine Separation Sense Transformation and are starting to reach the level of Unity of My Method. Soul and mana are one, their mana has inherent Spirituality, and the Heart Demon Great Curse is difficult to erode.
According to the Holy Emperor Venerable's sensing, all these cultivators had that kind of mysterious green resentful poison flame seeping into their bodies during the combat. However, these Unification Stage Cultivators only need to meditate for a few months, cultivate, and they can safely rid themselves of the Heart Demon Great Curse.
Perhaps due to the influence of the Heart Demon Great Curse, the Holy Emperor Venerable sensed that the ring he held in his hand attracted several suspicious gazes.
These Unification Stage Cultivators probably realized too, that the Divine Dao Power Guan Wuji displayed at the end was not his own. If Guan Wuji could break through to the Mahayana Realm during combat, he wouldn't have specially gone into closed-door seclusion.
Moreover, the ring that the Holy Emperor Venerable deliberately reclaimed is also very suspicious...
——This might just be the treasure that allows one to break through to the Mahayana Realm!
The Holy Emperor Venerable snorted coldly. With his temperament, he naturally wouldn't explain anything like "there's a problem with this ring" or "it can't really help someone break through to the Mahayana Realm." Moreover, he doesn't need these people to have absolute loyalty. For him, these Unification Stage Cultivators only need to stay on Spirit Phoenix Island when he refines the Human Dao.
The Holy Emperor Venerable stood with his hands behind his back and disappeared.
........................
At the moment Guan Wuji was crushed, the live broadcast in front of Wang Qi suddenly disappeared.
In the end, that ring was just a USB at the physical layer with a mana storage device. Its existence meant to attach mana and copy part of Wang Qi's power onto Guan Wuji. It couldn't send signals by itself and only used the mechanism preprogrammed by Wang Qi to transmit signals with Guan Wuji's power.
With Guan Wuji's death, there was naturally nothing to watch in the live broadcast.
"Not bad at all." Zhen Chan commented: "That Guan Wuji evidently already acquired the Martial Cultivator's Divine Essence. Given time, he would have become a true Mahayana Cultivator. With your Divine Dao Power, he really had the capability for a fight."
"But the Holy Emperor Venerable's strength is indeed unfathomable..." Wang Qi pondered: "That 'pinching living people' move just now wasn't the work of a Divine Tao Cultivator of the Holy Emperor Venerable... That wasn't Divine Power, but pure mana. The Holy Emperor Venerable has always been involved in Dual Cultivation of Immortal and Divine, I had already seen his Divine Dao techniques, now seeing his Immortal Dao methods, he's definitely no weak hand."
"Moreover, this time's gains are truly significant..." Wang Qi, looking at the preliminary data sorted by Jarvis, felt even more confident.
With Guan Wuji's uproar, the entire Divine Tao System of the Holy Emperor Venerable would inevitably have a stress response. Among these responses, Wang Qi collected data on reconfiguration, enough to further analyze the characteristics of the Holy Emperor Venerable's Divine Country.
Besides, under the cover of Guan Wuji's overwhelming demonic flames and Netherworld Fire Spell, the Formless Heart Demon Spell had already silently taken root in those Unification Stage Cultivators.
The ring of Wang Qi itself encompassed two different Heart Demon Curse Powers. The Netherworld Fire Spell was out in the open, while the Supreme Heart Demon Spell was hidden. Although both are Heart Demon Great Curses, the nature of the Supreme Heart Demon Spell is entirely different from the Netherworld Fire Spell, with no apparent similarities on the surface. Trying to sense the Supreme Heart Demon Spell with the method for the Netherworld Fire Spell is bound to be futile.
This was his first time planting a "nail" into the upper echelons of Spirit Phoenix Island.
Wang Qi thought for a moment, transmitting the collected data and other forces through the Heart Demon Mystic Net to the continent. Then he thought again and attached two letters.
.......................
Along the Great Road, Feng Luoyi opened Wang Qi's letter with a peculiar look. Wang Qi sent two letters, one asking to forward it to numerous top geometers including Mathematics Lord, inquiring about a handling method for a complex composite entity. This part was fairly normal. Though it was hard to imagine he would ask Mathematics Lord questions, one could not deny that Mathematics Lord was still the strongest in topology today, and Wang Qi's query was justified.
But...
"Wanting me to help gather some novelists and storytellers? What exactly is this kid up to?"
