Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 569 - 321 Rewrite the Circle of Reason
In the depth of the unknown, Zhao Qingfeng sensed something exceptional.
They were reciting, chanting. But Zhao Qingfeng couldn't discern what they were saying.
However, it was certain that they were extolling wisdom.
"Believers..." Zhao Qingfeng quickly realized something, the mana twisted into quantum form by Wang Qi was circulating through an invisible network.
These believers seemed to have become his acupoints, his organs. The connections that existed vaguely in the void were his meridians.
He could sense the approximate location of these believers—it was the prison of the Immortal Alliance Criminal Law Department. After all, Zhao Qingfeng was well-connected with many families of the Divine Capital and had numerous informants; he quickly deduced the "truth" from some known "facts."
"Last year, a group of Hongyuan Sect members was brought into the prison, and I heard that the Immortal Alliance intended to use them for live experiments to refine some brutal methods. Last year, when Xiao River was clamping down on cults, Wang Qi left the Divine Capital again..."
There was only one truth! These people were personally captured by Wang Qi, who then secretly brainwashed them on the way, turning them into believers of the "Circle of Reason," and subsequently handed them over to the Immortal Alliance! Since those people were already cultists, the members of the Immortal Alliance wouldn't suspect why there was a trace of Divine Tao energy on them, nor would they doubt Wang Qi's tampering.
In an instant, Zhao Qingfeng felt an urge to retreat, for the defenses of the Criminal Law Department were overly stringent, and he was not prepared to confront the Immortal Alliance head-on just yet. But before he could gather his thoughts, the surging mana flow had already breached the protective arrays of the Criminal Law Department prison.
"No wonder it's Divine Power, not even the restrictions of Modern Heretics could block it!" Zhao Qingfeng was overwhelmed with joy.
In quantum mechanics, the quantum tunneling effect is a phenomenon where microscopic particles like electrons can pass through "walls" they are not supposed to traverse. This occurs because, according to quantum mechanics, microscopic particles possess wave-like properties and have a nonzero probability of tunneling through potential barriers.
On the other hand, Wang Qi showed an expected expression, "A cultivator who can use the quantum tunneling effect to escape from prison must be at least a Primordial Spirit of Mysterious Palace. Thus, the Divine Capital Criminal Law Department simply hasn't set up corresponding measures. It's just that the distance is too short to determine whether the flow of Divine Power is at the speed of light."
The speed of light wasn't inherent to many Divine Light spells which operate at the speed of light, and some Thunder Law could also reach sub-light speed. For most cultivators, that was akin to instant killing. However, because photons do not have rest mass, such spells could only transfer limited power and had modest destructive power. Also, once these spells are released, they can't be controlled and can easily miss targets in a high-speed battle.
Most spells, fundamentally, can be considered as mechanical waves caused by disturbances in Spiritual Energy.
"But, although photons don't have rest mass, they possess momentum and can act as a medium to transfer energy... Maybe that's it?" Wang Qi speculated through the Heart Demon Curse, peering into Zhao Qingfeng's sensations.
"Once Divine Power leaves the body and is injected into the Heart Demon Curse Network, it can still be sensed but the path cannot be freely controlled anymore – only simple commands like 'Qi Gathering' can be performed... And just now, his mana circulated a Circulation before he realized it... damn, the distance is too short to determine whether it's in the sub-light speed or low-light speed category."
For a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the limit of response time is a thousandth of a second; it takes that long to generate a single thought. If the duration of an event is shorter than this value, there simply isn't enough time to react. And the place where Zhao Qingfeng resided was less than a hundred kilometers away from the Criminal Law Department, making it quite tough to determine whether the transmission speed of Divine Power was light speed or one percent of light speed.
However, compared to the entire theory, the "essence of Divine Power" was a trivial matter.
What Wang Qi was testing were the Divine Tao Techniques he had rederived.
The believers within the Heart Demon Curse Network were not members of the "Circle of Reason." Wang Qi still needed those believers for other experiments, so it was impossible to hand them over to Zhao Qingfeng. He temporarily used the Heart Demon Curse in Divine Capital Prison to infect a group of cultists meant for research, to be executed once their last bit of value was extracted. Wang Qi, using his "network administrator" privileges, created a separate LAN for Zhao Qingfeng.
However, although small, the "LAN" configured by Wang Qi had every essential feature a Divine Tao System should have—Divine Spirit: a gem-like magic artifact transformed by a Pseudo God; Believers: cultists further contaminated by the Dao Heart Pure Yang Spell; Doctrine: "I am right and everyone else is an idiot"; Regulations and Precepts: "Divine Capital Criminal Law Department Prison Life Behavior Regulations"...
Though the doctrine might sound a bit far-fetched, the regulations and precepts were enforced with utmost strictness.
The cultivation technique that Zhao Qingfeng "suddenly comprehended" was a collaborative product written by Wang Qi and Chen Feng, optimized by Chen Youjia. It was based on Wang Qi's mathematical model and built on the physical layer, incorporating life's metabolic system and some part of Divine Tao System, seeking a "port" where the individual soul connects with the Divine Tao System. Chen Youjia, taking the task of being the longest sword among the Wanfa Sect disciples, simplified the cultivation itself, removed redundancies, and derived the optimal solution.
At the same time, Chen Feng, who was also in the Divine Capital Criminal Law Department Prison, was synchronously recording the souls of those cultists. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Several days had passed.
Zhao Qingfeng had completely fallen in love with this power of the Divine Tao. As he became more familiar with the Divine Tao Power, more and more mana was being transmitted into that "mysterious" network. This network was equivalent to his body and could be used to store mana, effectively expanding his MP value by several times. If he were to increase the power stored in this network to its maximum, he even believed he could face the mightiest Modern Golden Core.
Furthermore, if he could inject the power from this network into his body in an instant... an elusive breakthrough might just occur in a flash!
With his growing familiarity with this Divine Tao Law, Zhao Qingfeng found himself controlling the Divine Power more and more adeptly. Moreover, this Divine Power was adept at disguising itself. The mana within his body was so well concealed that no one would recognize that his power was Divine Tao Power!
The harder he trained, the more data Wang Qi accumulated, and the deeper his understanding of Divine Spirits became.
Seven days later, Wang Qi once again arrived at the courtyard gifted to him by Du Bin.
After completing the brainwashing of two organizations, he seldom visited here under the guise of "Father Wang Qi". However, the effects of the brainwashing were deep-rooted. The cultists still practiced their cultivation daily according to the precepts, just as his mathematical model had outlined. Without interference from external forces, these two reduced systems had entered a "steady state", unchanging.
For a living organism, a steady state means the cessation of negative entropy, that is, death.
The vast Divine Tao could indeed kill a civilization. Even if a species could continue, what is carried forward can only be called the "carcass of civilization".
Wang Qi did not ponder this further. As usual, he recorded the physiological data of these believers. This information was crucial for Chen Feng to deduce the Divine Tao Law. Then, without alerting anyone, he entered the side room where the gold and jade circles were stored.
Over the verification week by Zhao Qingfeng, his understanding of the Divine Tao had deepened once again, and he had devised several methods to transform the Circle of Reason.
Wang Qi placed one hand on the circle, and his Spiritual Sense, like pervasive mercury, poured into it.
Perhaps as Wang Qi had said, Divine Power is a manifestation of electromagnetic interaction, but it inevitably accompanies gravitational interaction. Here, the spacetime metric had subtly changed. The special Spiritual Power caused the energy of the space itself to change, its curvature altered. Wang Qi employed the Xiangyu Calculation to decode this cabbage-like barrier. His Spiritual Sense traversed the heavily distorted spacetime.
He sensed the Spiritual Body of a Divine Spirit. Then, he was pulled into an illusion.
Divine Spirits could indeed change the space of their existence, but "Divine Country" was not an actually existing alternate dimension. Rather, it was an illusion produced by a person's spiritual body upon encountering the Divine Spirit's body. This illusion was reliant on the existence of the Divine Tao System, allowing countless people to exist within it.
Wang Qi stood atop a ruin. Around the ruin surged an erratic ocean; the ruin was the only thing emerging above the sea surface. The curvature of the horizon was slightly larger than that of Shenzhou, resembling a slightly smaller planet. Looking upwards into the sky, his sight pierced through the Heavenly Gang Atmosphere, and Wang Qi saw the "Circle of Reason".
The "Circle of Reason", theoretically, had no form. According to the doctrines established by Wang Qi, if one wished to worship the Circle of Reason, one could imagine it as a girl with a round face and a veiled skirt—if not, one could envision it as any form.
And the final product that appeared was a girl's silhouette, vague and extremely unclear. "Her" surroundings and below were numerous large circles, layered upon each other, resembling a massive skirt.
"Ruins and ocean represent that the Circle of Reason transcends the truth of Shenzhou civilization, beyond the changes of the Canghai Sangtian; and then the lack of a specific form is because the perfect woman in everyone's heart is different?" Wang Qi observed the form of the Circle of Reason with interest.
After a while, Wang Qi stretched out both hands. He had deciphered the rules here. The Circle of Reason was a non-personal god. After deciphering the intrinsic form of its power, this system of fewer than ten people was easily simulated by Wang Qi, and all its computations could be easily cracked.
Of course, he could also inject other things into the Circle of Reason as he deemed necessary.
A dazzling pink light group appeared in Wang Qi's hands. This beam of pink brilliance contained the intrinsic formula for eliminating the Heart Demon Algorithm. Under its illumination, the old rules were eliminated and the system began to move away from equilibrium. The form of the Circle of Reason collapsed, circle after circle fractured, turning into countless black lines. These black lines spread and thickened like dark clouds, gradually covering the planet in the illusion.
"The Circle of Reason" writhed in the starry sky. Suddenly, another force joined in. This power shockingly contained the Divine Power of the Circle of Reason laced with the Heart Pure Yang Spell!
"Cultists' Heart Demon Curse can still counter-supply the Divine Spirit, huh." Wang Qi had anticipated this situation. He had limited the size of the Circle of Reason sect to fewer than ten people, which made his power several times that of the mini Divine Tao System.
