Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 1006 - 90: Days of Insufficient Avatars

"Primordial Spirit True Form" is not the actual form of the Primordial Spirit. In reality, the Primordial Spirit Object can be seen as an integrated entity of a person's thoughts, soul, physical body, and mana, which is a distinct set of rules that coexist under nature's spiritual energy yet compatible and consistent.

"Primordial Spirit True Form" is merely the image that appears in visible light under the three-dimensional scale to express the Primordial Spirit.

Everyone's Primordial Spirit is different. Due to differences in foundational mana, bloodline, thoughts, physical body, people using the same Primordial Spirit Skill have subtle variations in their final Primordial Spirit, and their outward Primordial Spirit True Form also differs.

Even clones with the same memories and cultivating the same technique might not produce identical Primordial Spirits.

Moreover, Primordial Spirit design is not a complete cultivation technique. Using a somewhat inadequate analogy, the so-called "Primordial Spirit Skill" is like a special formula where an individual can input various data to obtain their own creation.

However, Wang Qi's desires surpass all existing Primordial Spirit Skills.

No current Primordial Spirit Skill can perfectly embody the vast advantages of his Two-Phase Transcendence Chapter over traditional cultivation methods.

To truly unleash the traits of the Two-Phase Transcendence Chapter and usher in a new era with this cultivation technique, he must create a unique Primordial Spirit Skill exclusively for this method.

All other Primordial Spirit Skills serve merely as references to him.

This is Wang Qi's mentality, which is why he exchanged for four Primordial Spirit Skills in one go.

One Primordial Spirit Skill values between hundreds of thousands to millions, and each of the four Primordial Spirit Skills Wang Qi exchanged is a pinnacle of technological achievement, costing millions each.

This is the principle of the Immortal Alliance: "theoretical unconditional sharing, technical compensated exchange." The more practical the cultivation method, the more expensive it is. Core theories, however, are cheaper.

For a typical Golden Core Cultivator, gathering ten thousand merits is challenging. A million-level merit is roughly the accumulation of several hundred years of a Golden Core Cultivator.

Ordinary cultivators purchasing Primordial Spirit Skills often feel like early 21st-century Chinese people solemnly buying a house.

But Wang Qi, not only lacks solemnity, he didn't even bother to check his account balance.

Wang Qi is now very sure of one thing: he is particularly wealthy.

The empirical evidence from the Divine Capital Special Zone is a continuous income for him. The Zhenhai Navy is another. Every time the Immortal Alliance recruits a batch of Zhenhai Navy, a small merit sum enters Wang Qi's account.

Accumulating from these two sources, Wang Qi received meritorious values in the millions.

The techniques he sent back in the past months would further expand his "technical equity" in these empirical instances.

Besides these, his academic works also generate income. Not to mention, his two papers that shook Shenzhou half a year ago — proofs of incompleteness and undecidability — already distributed to every disciple in the Wanfa Sect. Even some outsiders interested in these topics have them.

This income approach is slower but is still a significant source.

Wang Qi's wealth now leaves even typical Primordial Spirit Stage Cultivators in awe.

However, by now, Wang Qi has long lost interest in calculating his exact property value. If there is some bored individual in the Immortal Alliance willing to make a rich list, he might engage out of curiosity. But he's mostly the type where "too much money feels unreal."

Wang Qi personally prefers engaging in research more.

Certainly, Wang Qi's wealth from a personal perspective is indeed substantial. But this merely ensures he can cultivate at will without any difficulties in his daily cultivation—nothing more. If he invests his resources into research, it would be like throwing money into the sea.

Research is not something where a wealthy person can just meddle,

——unless monopolistic and dictatorial conglomerates are involved, that's another matter.

The days following were rather uneventful.

There were no particularly noteworthy events. Under the suppression of the Holy Emperor Venerable, Spirit Phoenix Island has consistently remained stable, rarely encountering upheaval. Guan Wuji's incident was merely an unusual accident.

The Ancient Method Practitioners continue their daily cultivation, using this seemingly meaningless activity to pass days filled with no hope. Mortals, on the other hand, began rallying a few strong individuals, compacting mud on the ground and constructing houses, preparing to start anew and aiming to cultivate the sparse yet existent hope.

Several months ago, in that colossal disaster, torrential rains falling from the sky shaved the average elevation of Spirit Phoenix Island's nearly bare surface. Later, to combat salinization, the Golden Core Stage Cultivators tasked with filtering salts from the soil further reduced the island's elevation bit by bit. Now, the topography of Spirit Phoenix Island has slightly altered.

They started compacting low levels, stacking soil for bricks, constructing houses, liberating themselves from wind and sun exposure.

These disaster victims have no complaints about their current lives.

During these days, some Immortal Masters surprisingly went out to sea to hunt sea beasts for them to eat and drink. This left them quite flattered and amazed.

Moreover, some people felt a faint warm current within their bodies, as if they had developed the legendary "Qi Sensation." This feeling made some of the impoverished people on Spirit Phoenix Island happy for a long time. In their concept, being able to develop Qi Sensation certainly meant that achieving Spirit Body Completion and advancing to Qi Cultivation wasn't far off.

Some of the refugees even speculated whether the food bestowed upon them by the Immortal Masters was too nutritious, with an abundance of Essence Qi.

In reality, this was just a bit of strength given back to them by the Supreme Heart Demon Spell. Originally, the Heart Demon Mysterious Net did not have this function, but Wang Qi deliberately modified it. The small amount of nature's spiritual energy captured by the Heart Demon Mysterious Net would be injected into some of the impoverished people's bodies, allowing them to survive.

For Wang Qi, the more people who survive, the stronger the Heart Demon Mysterious Net becomes. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Every move made by these disaster victims was providing power to Wang Qi's Heart Demon Mysterious Net.

Meanwhile, the three who had acquired Wang Qi's Jade Clip, successfully stepped into the Qi Cultivation Stage and were currently using the path rank "Learning Assistant" built into the clip to review junior high-level knowledge, laying a foundation for their future transition into Modern Cultivation.

During this period, Lian Xinjie, Lian Xingling, and other Golden Core Stage Cultivators followed orders from the Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao to provide disaster relief on the island's surface. They even visited those three Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators practicing the Modern Cultivation Method. However, even after learning the truth, neither Lian Xinjie nor Lian Xingling noticed anything abnormal.

Wang Qi, even at the Foundation Establishment Stage, could use the Heart Demon Curse to perform illusions that could easily overpower Golden Core and Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators. How difficult could it be to conceal the aura of three Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators using the Supreme Heart Demon Spell?

Unless Holy Emperor Venerable or any other Unification Stage Cultivators came to inspect, which was highly unlikely.

With the activity of those mortals, Wang Qi's Heart Demon Mysterious Net had become quite sophisticated.

On the other hand, many Luochen Sword Palace cultivators began to gradually familiarize themselves with the cultivation techniques Wang Qi instructed the Sword Palace Elders to pass down. Those cultivation techniques that had been tampered with, paradoxically strengthened the local network of Luochen Sword Palace.

Additionally, many people began attempting to use the Simplified Wanxiang Diagram to interpret spells.

These people were not skilled in using the Wanxiang Diagram and often made laughably absurd mistakes. However, this group was the first batch of Wanxiang Diagram users who were not Modern Cultivators or Wanfa Sect disciples. Many of their ideas became the foundation for Wang Qi's improvement and simplification of the "Qiankun Diagram."

Furthermore, the number of people borrowing the "system" for cultivation had increased to thirty-six, with the initial batch of twelve having all their power assimilated into the system due to long-term reliance on it, rendering their cultivation a hollow illusion. Nevertheless, Wang Qi hadn't considered seizing their mana. To him, this amount of mana was trivial; his objective was not simply power, but the laws of nature that could be presented behind power.

The subsequent twenty-four people were considered the second and third-generation system users.

Wang Qi gradually upgraded the system, altering some of its intrinsic components.

He even had more fascinating empirical evidence later on.

Yet... regrettably, the "instance" interface remains nothing more than a locked decoration.

Overall, Wang Qi disgracefully postponed it.

Firstly, the endeavor of "making a game" was not as simple as it seemed. He was not aiming for a Japanese-style game with mere text and a few dozen CG images, but a highly realistic virtual reality game.

Secondly, there was just too much happening for Wang Qi.

Without mentioning other things, just one "Primordial Spirit Skill" alone seemed like a gateway to a new world.

Even among the pinnacle of Carefree Practitioners, not a single one has completed a set of Primordial Spirit Skills. A mature Primordial Spirit Skill often requires collaboration among many. Among these "cooperators," there must be a Burning Gold Valley cultivator proficient in the Path of Materiality, two or more Tianling Ridge cultivators specializing in Life Path—mandatory to include those born of Yangshen Pavilion and Innate Peak—a Guiyi Alliance cultivator adept in Cosmic Dual Laws, and a cultivator well-versed in the classical Elemental Power System. Only with such a team can a Primordial Spirit Skill be assured to be coherent without causing issues in the physical body or soul.

The Immortal Alliance possesses specialized institutions to refine Primordial Spirit Skills. Cultivators confident in themselves only need to submit their personal framework of Primordial Spirit Skills, and specialists will complete it for them.

Wang Qi could even request Feng Luoyi to use personal connections to rally a group of Carefree Practitioners for assistance. However, this still came with prerequisites.

—First, you need to have a framework!

Additionally, another matter involving the proof of the "Continuous Set" hypothesis was not set aside by Wang Qi.

This matter was also crucial. In Wang Qi's mind, it somewhat overshadowed the Primordial Spirit Skill.

Coupled with daily processing of large amounts of experimental data and resolving "bug fixes," even Wang Qi, capable of deploying hundreds of threads and multitasking a thousand times, felt his hands were full.

This was exceedingly challenging.

However, during these difficult times, Wang Qi's skills continued to grow day by day.
