Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 1025 - 109: Raid
On the fourth day, at dawn, a figure silently fell from the Bodhi Tree within the Ruyi Daoist School.
A strange scene unfolded. Clearly, there were two or three sweeping children cleaning the dust nearby, and a few Golden Core disciples sat in meditation in front of the Bodhi Tree, trying to comprehend the subtleties of spirituality. Yet, no one saw Wang Qi.
For Wang Qi, VR virtual reality was achievable, so AR augmented reality would be even simpler.
In the eyes of these cultivators, the area where Wang Qi was located was covered by a layer of texture. What they were seeing was actually what they had seen half a second before.
Wang Qi, who had turned into a shadowy figure, lowered his body and rushed up the path under the Bodhi Tree, hurrying towards the core area of the Ruyi Daoist School.
If someone skilled in the Qi Observation Skills and capable of sensing the Power of Human Dao were present, they might be surprised to find a vague, misty humanoid silhouette surrounding Wang Qi's body.
Virtual Form Primordial Spirit, first application experiment, begins.
The core area of the Ruyi Daoist School is slightly elevated, but it's no more than a hundred steps. Wang Qi's figure flashed past, and before anyone could react, he was already standing on the eighty-seventh step. At this moment, he felt as if he had collided with a "wall" made of tens of layers of cotton cloth.
This was the "momentum" of high-level cultivators. Their spirit could reflect onto the material plane more intuitively than ordinary people.
Wang Qi raised his right palm lightly, and the Elephant Phase Wave Skill triggered instantly. Forced to manifest its wave nature, the material turned into a sharp blade, clearing a path for Wang Qi. However, Wang Qi also knew that he was already exposed at this step.
As Wang Qi stepped onto the eighty-ninth step, a fierce shout erupted: "Thief! How dare you!"
"My courage is average." Wang Qi waved both hands, temporarily altering the physical properties of the air with the Elephant Phase Wave Skill, dissipating the fierce shout into nothingness. But this action also slowed Wang Qi's pace. As his right foot stepped onto the ninetieth step, two figures had already rushed out from inside.
Through intelligence from Luochen Sword Palace, Wang Qi already knew these were the two disciples of the ancient relic "Daoist Yixin" of the Ruyi Daoist School.
Daoist Yixin was an elderly man who achieved Alchemy Shattering Infant Formation before the fall of Luofu Xuanqing Palace. He still retains many habits exclusive to the residents of Shenzhou Continent. For example, he still meditates, practices boxing, during each day rigorously following twirling of the twelve two-hours.
And at this time, it was generally the occasion for him to lecture two Nascent Soul Stage disciples.
The reason Wang Qi chose to rush at this moment was because he knew it was an opportunity to capture the core layer of the Ruyi Daoist School in one fell swoop. As a fringe sect, the Ruyi Daoist School's number of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators was far fewer than that of Luochen Sword Palace. Among them, only five people formed the core. And here were already assembled two!
Plus the sect's highest combat power, Daoist Yixin, it was worth it!
When Wang Qi's left foot stepped onto the ninety-first step, the first Nascent Soul Cultivator's punch had already reached before him. Wang Qi did not dodge, meeting the punch head on. As the fists crossed, both were shocked with a tremor. The reddened color flashed across the charging Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator's face and disappeared immediately as he flew backwards. He felt the force of this move completely returned to him, pounding each of his muscles, creating a tearing sensation throughout his entire arm.
Arrow Control Technique, a bizarre spell through calculation, reversing momentum direction!
The last time Wang Qi used this move, he directly dismantled an entire Sea Demon's physical body. However, then the Sea Demon was attacking with full force, and Wang Qi had various Flow Control Mechanisms and Yue Luo Liu Li supporting him, resulting in such domineering effect. But now, this move against one Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator was enough!
But Wang Qi felt a highly condensed magical power rushing into his body through his fist, causing havoc. This was the Ruyi Daoist School's "Ruyi Qi." He had to retreat half a step, heavily stomping his left foot on the eighty-ninth step to dissipate the force. This stomp instantly shattered three steps. However, his right foot lightly stepped on the ninety-third step.
Then, the second Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator's fist arrived: "Despicable thief! Taste my fist!"
"It's hard to swallow, no thanks…" In the blink of an eye, Wang Qi still managed to utter sarcastic words. He swiftly waved his hands, lightly deflecting the opponent's iron fist using the Arrow Control Technique to transform the fist's force upward, and simultaneously advanced, turning, his right shoulder heavily striking the opponent's shoulder hollow, sealing their hand Taiyin lung channel, and his magic power sent the opponent flying.
Modern Golden Core is approximately equal to Ancient Method Nascent Soul. Even without the assistance of Heart Demon Mysterious Net, or any external Magic Artifact, Wang Qi could confront Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators head-on. Mere Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators couldn't block his path.
However, Wang Qi wasn't as well off as he appeared. During the collision, the second Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator also struck him with a Ruyi Qi. Both streams of Ruyi Qi inside his body did not merge, but instead entangled, displaying a terrifyingly complex topology structure, creating chaos.
Wang Qi simply operated Heavenly Entropy Technique in a manner akin to harming the enemy a thousand times at the cost of self-injury eight hundred times, making the two Ruyi Qi tend towards "equalization," eliminating this foreign magical power.
Under normal circumstances, Wang Qi wouldn't choose this option. But this time, he didn't have that concern. A Spirit Light flickered around him as numerous Virtual Form Spirit Rhinoceros merged into his body from the Heart Demon Mysterious Net, re-establishing the order of mana flow within him.
"My original thought was indeed correct…"
"Indeed, this is also a form of negative entropy…" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"A substandard Longevity Dao Fruit can also be achieved using Heart Demon Mysterious Net!"
In a moment of exhilaration, Wang Qi soared upward. At the same time, an aged but commanding voice echoed, "Zhen Ru, Zhen Guang, I am here!"
As the sound of "here" fell, Wang Qi had already stepped over the last stair, arriving before a wide open door.
Yixin Daoist stood behind the door. He was already very old. Anyone could see that he was approaching the end of his life, his whole face resembling the dried peel of an orange. Yet, his eyes remained bright.
Yixin Daoist was still puzzled as to why a master of illusion technique would invade his home out of nowhere. Even more bizarre, based on the lightning-fast encounter just now, this guy was merely Nascent Soul Stage in strength. How dare he audaciously attack someone like him, who was at the Divinity Separation Stage Perfection?
But, there was no point in dwelling on it. Capturing him and preparing the severe punishments would suffice.
He lifted his fist and swung.
This punch was neither fast nor marvelous, without the sound of breaking air, nor a formidable aura. All its power was concentrated inside the fist. This was the wondrous application of "Ruyi Qi" from the Ruyi Daoist School. Reverting everything to the initial Qi, an infinite power is contained within the Qi.
This was the profound mystery of the cultivation method of the Ruyi Daoist School, possessing substance without form, known as "Taisu"!
The Duo Bao Ruyi Yi Qi Hun Cheng Skill is the supreme method associated with the Innate Taisu Dao!
Faced with this punch, Wang Qi also slowed his pace. Yixin Daoist was only five steps away from the door. And these five steps were Wang Qi's final power-accumulating stage.
One step…
The mana within Wang Qi's body rapid circulated. His Virtual Form Spirit Rhinoceros seemed to break free from the constraints of the Real Form Mana, forming a self-contained entity, occupying the center, suppressing all the mana. Countless commands were issued, and the mana within Wang Qi changed its form. Then, a white light was generated.
Two steps…
In an instant, the white light transformed into a layer of white battle armor, covering Wang Qi's body surface.
Three steps…
Numerous spiral-shaped light chains extended from Wang Qi's back, forming the arm of a galaxy. Heaven and Earth's spiritual energy surged towards Wang Qi like mad.
Yixin Daoist also realized the change in situation, prematurely ending his power accumulation, and stepped in half a pace.
Fourth step, the fists of both clashed thunderously together.
No routine sound and light effect. Everything ended in an instant. The white spirit light on Wang Qi's body and the trailing spirals behind him completely collapsed. He felt as if seven pounds of mercury had been poured into his body. The Ruyi Mixed Qi, after stripping away most form, nearing the initial substance of "Taisu," rushed into Wang Qi's body. Wang Qi felt all his strength entangled, his mana completely obstructed. After three seconds, his blood burst forth as if a massive hemorrhage, spraying from his entire body.
Upon close inspection, his whole skin was covered with cracks, all originating from within.
Wang Qi's right hand that threw the punch hung limply, the bones broken into several pieces, entirely powerless.
Yet, Wang Qi's expression seemed very pleased. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, only to spit out a mouthful of blood first. This was rather awkward. Nonetheless, Wang Qi spat out the clotted blood in his mouth and smiled, "Heavenly Selection Spirit True Light, specifically restrains the physical body. For a cultivator like you, whose physical body is old and nearly decayed, it must be unbearable…"
Yixin Daoist retreated two steps, trembling as he clutched his chest, his face even more ashen. The Heavenly Selection Spirit True Light is a divine skill embodying the essence of "survival of the fittest" intended specifically for the physical body, like the high-above Heaven's will, or the merciless probability governing all things, breaking through all weaknesses. During that last clash, his internal organs were already irrevocably damaged. He collapsed to the ground, his gaze filled with fear: "Heterodox…"
The Heavenly Selection God Monarch was the earliest heterodox figure, and the "Heavenly Selection Spirit True Light" was a nightmare for most cultivators who had lived from two thousand years ago until now.
Even Yixin's two disciples, those two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators from Spirit Phoenix Island, were startled into a shiver. However, this only intensified their murderous intent.
Heterodox paths and Righteous Skills cannot coexist under the same heaven!
Who would have expected, Wang Qi spoke quickly: "The Holy Emperor Venerable will not come. If you want to live, talk to me."
The shortest sentence delivered unambiguous and effective information.
The words "to live" indeed tugged at the heartstrings of Yixin Daoist. However, he merely stopped his disciples, without any further response, instead sneering, "Oh, now you're quite the bargaining chip. Whether to exchange for a Holy Emperor Venerable, or to use as a hostage…"
