Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 1011 - 95: Realm of Reincarnation?
[Alliance Hierarch Extra Update 1/5, A Poor Daoist is a Trustworthy Person]
Young Wu Qi groggily woke up, discovering he was in an unfamiliar space.
Their surroundings were a vast plaza, the tiles of the plaza flat and white, yet possessing a metallic feel, and the surroundings were a series of colorful light curtains.
"Where is this?" someone exclaimed.
Only then did Wu Qi notice that there were other cultivators around.
He turned his head and gasped. It turned out the person who had just spoken was the same cultivator from Wuji Sky Sect who had punched him in the face that afternoon!
The Wuji Sky Sect cultivator, upon seeing Wu Qi, immediately shouted, "What do you Luochen Sword Palace people want? Do you intend to commit a great wrongdoing, openly scheming against fellow cultivators?"
Wu Qi had no idea what the other party was talking about, his face a picture of bewilderment.
"Enough, you idiot!" Another disciple from the Unrivaled Sword Sect seemed disdainful of this fellow: "If Luochen Sword Palace wanted to do anything, they wouldn't have dragged their own disciple into it."
The Wuji Sky Sect disciple still seemed unconvinced: "What if he's a prison guard..."
At this point, the others couldn't bear it any longer. Another cultivator from Thunder Night Sect said in a deep voice, "This junior brother from Luochen Sword Palace's cultivation is far inferior to ours. We are not under any restraint now, would the higher-level cultivators of Luochen Sword Palace be crazy to send him as a prison guard? There are so many of us, he couldn't even fight!"
Another cultivator from Ruyi Daoist School also said, "The situation is unclear now, it'd be best if we don't start infighting amongst ourselves."
The Wuji Sky Sect disciple snorted twice, still seemingly unconvinced, but in the end, only said, "This brat is too weak, I can cripple him with a few punches, he has no strength at all, and would only be a burden!" Though he said this, he didn't bother Wu Qi further.
Wu Qi's face turned red upon hearing the remarks from this boor. The cultivator from Ruyi Daoist School held him down. Wu Qi felt as if his feet had grown roots, unable to move. Ruyi Daoist School's inner refinement was known to make one's 'breath' adaptable and varied, having such skill wasn't surprising. After ensuring Wu Qi had calmed down, the youthful cultivator relaxed his hold and smiled amicably, saying, "Junior brother, your surname is Wu, right? I think I saw you at the arena this morning, though I only remembered a surname."
"I'm Wu Qi," Wu Qi said quietly, "Thank you, Senior Brother Fan Zhongxing..."
This disciple from Ruyi Daoist School was somewhat known, too, and Wu Qi recognized him.
Everyone exchanged names. The rather cold and sarcastic-speaking disciple from Unrivaled Sword Sect was named Chen Taihuan. And the disciple from Thunder Night Sect was named Xiao Jizong. The annoying disciple from Wuji Sky Sect was named Lu Longcheng. Besides them, there were two more Luochen Sword Palace disciples. Unlike Wu Qi, who still had a Golden Core Stage cultivation, they were merely Foundation Establishment cultivators!
"Strange indeed..." Fan Zhongxing seemed quite interested in this phenomenon: "We all hail from different backgrounds. If one were to say we're all elites from various sects... yet two Foundation Establishment disciples of modest talent are mixed in?"
"If there's any commonality among us, it's that we're all at Luochen Sword Palace, right?"
"The Tai Chu Sword God Array, after all, is an array laid by Divine Separation Stage cultivators, and higher-order cultivators can indeed breach it and snatch people away, which isn't surprising. But what's surprising is... that it didn't alarm the Holy Emperor Venerable who has reached Mahayana Perfection?"
............
In an unknown place, Wang Qi whistled: "No kidding, it's a random selection, even I don't know the pattern, if you could figure it out, that'd be strange."
Dozens of screens materialized before him, each screen displaying the same plaza. Apart from different people, every scene was identical—this was the result of Wang Qi wanting to save on a few textures.
This was Wang Qi's recent endeavor.
Using a real-time engine to display themes, and an offline engine to present backgrounds. It's a classic design in all online games on Earth. Wang Qi borrowed this concept and took it further.
The "offline engine" was a special Divine Plague Curse Technique implanted into the body via the Heart Demon Curse, encompassing a path rank specified for rendering polygons and curves, alongside a strong suggestion technique with potent hallucinogenic effects.
This ensured that even if Wang Qi made some graphical glitches, the afflicted ancient method practitioners would selectively ignore them, even mentally fill in normal visuals.
The physics engine produced by the Immortal Alliance was very advanced. Except for a few "forbidden moves" like Wang Qi's first-stage sword, it fully supported Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators and below in combat.
Additionally, through Feng Luoyi, Wang Qi gathered a large group of second-rate writers to construct different instances for him.
It's hard to say whether due to the great development of Immortal Dao technology, but the illusions of immortals in Shenzhou were extremely realistic, essentially human-like, so Wang Qi didn't need to specially set any race or cultural background, making "All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds" appear similar to the Human Clan wouldn't cause suspicion.
Wang Qi, having rested for half a day, was now fully alert and ready for the game.
He raised his finger: "Old man, it's your turn to take the stage!"
.....................
On Wu Qi's side, just as everyone was speculating, a new change occurred.
"Dong—dong..."
A melodious bell sounded, and simultaneously, the sky suddenly changed color as white light converged, then a milky-white light sphere descended from the sky.
"Welcome to the Reincarnation World!"
"Here lies endless danger, boundless power, and countless treasures!"
A grand and solemn voice echoed. Just this voice alone made several geniuses tense.
Cultivators have their own ways to distinguish between true masters and imposters. Cultivators' essence, qi, and spirit overflow; for cultivators, "temperament" is actually something physical, manifesting externally. Aside from Wang Qi, the exceptional one, most cultivators unconsciously reveal their actual cultivation method through various temperaments. Some cultivation methods' "temperament" can't be concealed at all.
And within this slightly old figure, surprisingly resides a hint of the Immortal's carefree qi intent, as if hailing from ancient times, transcending space and time!
To express one's temperament through sound... Surely not an ordinary hand!
"Who is it..." Wu Qi plucked up the courage to shout.
The genuine high-level cultivator Zhen Chan calmly recited his predetermined lines: "You may call me the 'Reincarnation Realm Master'."
"Reincarnation Realm?" Fan Zhongxing caught onto a key point: "What is the Reincarnation Realm?"
"Six paths of reincarnation connect the ten worlds, endless heavens and earth. And here, is the Reincarnation Realm, my world. It is the gear and array pivot of all heavens and myriads of worlds' operations..."
Zhen Chan, bearing in mind Wang Qi doesn't know which infinite-stream novel from a past life he borrowed the words from, stifled laughter.
Luochen Sword Palace disciple Chen Taihuan pressed his right hand on his sword and coldly said: "Why have you brought us here, senior?"
"The cycle of worldly affairs will lead you through one heaven and earth after another, completing the missions I assign, and you'll be able to return to your original world, earning Reincarnation Points that can be exchanged for all treasures in the world. Here, you can obtain the most precious secret manuals, magic artifacts, talismans, medicines, and natural treasures. If the Reincarnation Points are sufficient, I can directly grant you a mind-clearing technique, implanting memory."
"In short, whatever you can imagine, I have it here!"
Soonafter, several flashing lists appeared before Wu Qi and the others.
Wu Qi first spotted the top of the "Supreme Divine Skill Manual": "'Xuanjun Seven Chapter Secret Scripture'... What is this? It actually costs one million Reincarnation Points..."
Everyone shook their heads. It seemed they weren't very clear about this cultivation technique which Wang Qi essentially completed before nightfall today. However, very quickly, Fan Zhongxing exclaimed: "Original Dao Salvation Divine Skill True Formulas! The Holy Infant Sect's Supreme God Skill! Nine hundred fifty thousand Reincarnation Points!"
That cultivation technique indeed has a renowned reputation. An advanced version of the Original Dao Salvation Song, the core cultivation method of the Holy Infant Sect.
Everyone inhaled sharply. The first divine path across eternity, Shenzhou's highest divine tao skill...
"The Luofu Xuanqing Palace, 'Da Luo Chaos Heaven Scripture' is also here! Nine hundred seventy thousand Reincarnation Points!"
Another Luochen Sword Palace disciple shouted: "'Great Freedom Brushing Heart Mysterious Truth'! Six hundred ninety thousand Reincarnation Points! My Luofu Xuanqing Palace cultivation technique is here too!"
Wu Qi's heart stirred, and he quickly found the 'Void Sword Crossing Technique', fifty-five thousand Reincarnation Points.
"Wuji Sky Sect's 'Tai Heaven' is also here..." That Wuji Sky Sect disciple Lu Longcheng's face was full of incredulity.
At this moment, Fan Zhongxing exclaimed again: "Come quickly, see this!"
"What?" Everyone gathered around. Then, he pointed at a cultivation technique called the 'Skull-snatching Taotie Treasure Appearance· Swallowing World War Dog True Method' and said: "I just inquired with the Reincarnation Realm Master; he seems to be able to simulate the form of mastery for each cultivation technique for us to see..." He gently clicked on the 'Skull-snatching Taotie Treasure Appearance· Swallowing World War Dog True Method''s marker, and then a virtual form wearing blood-colored armor appeared before them.
"Is that... 'Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment'?" The group dared not mention the name that rebelled against the Holy Emperor Venerable, only referring to it with a codename, then inhaled sharply once more.
They were well aware of the happenings surrounding that mysterious Mahayana Realm foe.
If not for the Holy Emperor Venerable, the entire Spirit Phoenix Island wouldn't stand against the opponent.
Meanwhile, Lu Longcheng's thoughts came alive.
Guan Wuji's several shouted "Pseudo Emperor Heavenly Punishment" echoed around the hills, familiar to many who recognized his voice. So, the entire Spirit Phoenix Island knew who this Blood Armor Man daring to call "Blood Sacrifice Blood God" was.
Though, Wuji Sky Sect was admittedly confused.
"Is that cultivation method... truly ours?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
And now, seeing this Reincarnation Realm, Lu Longcheng suddenly felt a mystery had been solved.
"Could it be that Guan Rebel's 'Skull-snatching Taotie Treasure Appearance· Swallowing World War Dog True Method', was obtained in the Reincarnation Realm?"
"Divine Separation Stage, Half-step Mahayana cultivators would also be completing tasks in this so-called Reincarnation Realm?"
"It's too incredible!"
