Exploring Immortality Cultivation

"November 7 in the Yin Yang Calendar.

The Holy Light God had been born for over three months, one hundred days. The Circle of Reason had been born two months ago.

The growth trajectory of the Circle of Reason resembled that of the Holy Light God, both becoming increasingly enigmatic. The Circle of Reason too had once divided a Qi Vein that connected with me. It seems that these are characteristics of a non-personified deity.

After Chen Feng's reminder, I also realized that I do indeed hold a special status within these two Divine Tao systems. Neither of the divine beings have personalities; any definitions about them come from my own hand. From this angle, they are my creations. And in the eyes of current believers, I am the revealer of the Holy Light and the Circle, the sole Prophet. One or both of these factors created my unique status.

If I were to draw a parallel with Earth's religions, I am both Abraham and Jesus Christ.

According to Chen Feng's conjecture, maybe by allowing that Qi Vein into my body, a part of the divine being will transfer into me, transforming me into something akin to a Divine Spirit Cultivator—and this order of the non-personified deity seems extremely superior and mystical. If it were to acquire my mana and knowledge, perhaps it could propel me to break through to the Divine Pill Stage right away.

Of course, I would not do that, as integrating with the Divine Spirit System would also turn my consciousness into part of the living beings. Although consciousness is but a special algorithm, this particular algorithm holds vast importance to me.

The Divine Spirit Power of the Circle of Reason remains obscure.

The Holy Light God, on the other hand, has indeed demonstrated its Divine Spirit Power. As I expected, it encompasses Negative Entropy Force, Holy Light, and Dao Morality, leaning heavily toward the spiritual realm, especially effective in healing and saving people.

I feel like if I threw it into an otherworldly realm, it could become the traditional adversary of Long Aotian, the Light God.

Since the Holy Light God possesses the Negative Entropy Force that represents life, it has grown faster than the Circle of Reason. Perhaps it's time to increase the Circle of Reason's numbers. Taking three to five people from Du Bin and dedicating them fully to the Circle of Reason could hasten its growth. At the same time, I should collect more information on the development patterns of the non-personified Divine Sects.

The seven 'Angels' have already begun to exhibit 'godification' phenomena. They are truly not of the soul, and even removing the vessels from the vicinity of the cross cannot stop this reaction. Is it that the range of the Holy Light God's influence is gradually expanding, or have they already become part of the Divine Tao?

Moreover, the influence range of the Circle of Reason greatly overlaps with that of the Holy Light God. After all, the ring that contains their respective bodies and the cross are only tens of feet apart. This overlap seems to have no interference.

Lastly, Du Gui still hasn't made contact with the Holy Light God. It seems that simply understanding doctrine does not qualify one as a believer.

I am considering new ways to guide him."

...

Amidst the cold wind, Wang Qi stood erect on the rooftop of the Du Family's courtyard annex, standing silent and still. In his hands, he toyed with three Innate Divine Seals. Half a year of diligent research had greatly increased his mana to the point of being almost uncontrollable. If forced to infuse the mana into his Magic Foundation without being prepared, it would surely impact the quality of his foundation, so embedding a Magic Foundation within himself to absorb the excess mana had become imperative.

However, in order to enhance the individual quality of believers within the Divine Tao System, Wang Qi and Chen Youjia had put a lot of effort into Memory Bodies and coins. The Memory Bodies and coins implanted within those several believers did nothing other than monitoring restrictions and did not manipulate them in any way, making this a rare instance of Wang Qi not scamming others.

Wang Qi was confident in refining the strongest coin for himself. What he was doing now was using his own mana to nourish the three Innate Divine Seals from the Dragon Clan.

In the training ground, Du Gui was hard at work training in Martial Arts. He moved arms and legs in unison, his skin, flesh, sinew, and bone perfectly coordinated, his form akin to a Wandering Dragon, his True Qi diffusing into his limbs. It was clear that he had acquired a Righteous Martial Arts skill.

Yet, compared to a few months earlier, his strength had increased significantly. He had not only captured the form but also grasped its profundity. With both spirit and form complete, he had attained the most superior level of the Ancient Method Martial Arts.

Of course, to Modern Martial Arts, "Divine Essence" and Martial Arts Boxing Intent are akin to Suggestion Technique. Modern Martial Arts emphasize transcending essence, mastering the various inevitable laws underneath moves and within Martial Arts itself.

And Du Gui's significant improvement is inseparable from a powerful spell he is currently practicing.

Holy Light.

Du Gui's mana transformed into True Qi, spreading into every muscle, every cell, refining himself. Mixed with his True Qi was the spell that Wang Qi had modified from his Divine Skills, Holy Light!

Because of Holy Light, he could fear no hidden injuries, nor worry about harming himself during training. Even without understanding the various natural laws within Martial Arts, he could still explore a powerful Martial Tao through repeated practice and by using trial and error.

Watching Du Gui from below, Wang Qi chuckled softly and whispered to Zhen Chan, "Old man, are you ready? Let's go swindle him again."

The one who spoke to Du Gui last time was Zhen Chan, an ancient Great Power. In the art of deception, he was certainly more skilled than Wang Qi.

"It's simple!" Zhen Chan chuckled and, through an Illusion Technique, exchanged control of the body with Wang Qi. This wasn't Zhen Chan's Residual Soul forcefully taking over Wang Qi's body, but a more sophisticated Illusion Technique. Wang Qi and Zhen Chan each entered into dual-layered dream states. The dreamscape Zhen Chan experienced was indistinguishable from reality, and his every move was transformed into biological signals, eliciting responses from Wang Qi's Physical Body. Meanwhile, Wang Qi temporarily disconnected his Perception from his physical body. In fact, Wang Qi still maintained true dominion over his body. Fortunately so, for Zhen Chan couldn't possibly handle Wang Qi's Mana System, which contained Absolute Skills from multiple domains.

If it weren't for Wang Qi's half-year understanding of the Human Dao and the "collective unconscious," he wouldn't have been able to perform such an Illusion Technique. Even in the use of the spirit realm's various mysteries, he was only slightly weaker than Chen Feng from two years ago.

After "dreaming" of physical sensations, Zhen Chan chuckled twice, leapfrogged into the air, and floated behind Du Gui, scolding, "You kid, are truly foolish. Such an excellent Holy Light, and you've used it like this!"

Upon hearing Zhen Chan's scolding, Du Gui first tensed up, highly vigilant, then joyously exclaimed, "Senior!"

It was this senior who had given him an unparalleled opportunity! What exactly was the Law Gate of Holy Light? Du Gui had little knowledge and couldn't describe it. But surely, it couldn't be much more sophisticated than the Modern Heretics of the main house, known for their exceptional combat skills and countless sneaky techniques, right? Just this one spell had healed all the hidden wounds in his body, replenished the Qi and blood loss caused by his overzealous Cultivation of the mental method, and also gave him the opportunity to keep experimenting and find his own path!

Actually, his understanding wasn't wrong. The Holy Light was a variant of the Life Flame; it was just that Wang Qi didn't know this, and the power exerted was reduced to one-tenth when transformed into a spell and passed to Du Gui. However, even the twice-diluted Absolute Skill of Tianling Ridge was beyond the imagination of ordinary folks.

Du Gui immediately knelt down and said, "The junior is dull and truly unable to comprehend a fraction of the senior's profound technique... Moreover, in the beginning, I did suspect the senior's intentions, which delayed my practice for a long time."

Everyone knows that free lunches falling from the sky are suspicious. But if heaven were to smash down a golden cake weighing several tons, no one would think it a deception. The value of that golden cake exceeds the wealth of most people, perhaps even enough to buy several lives. Who would use such an item to deceive a worker earning a monthly salary of three thousand?

The Holy Light Technique was highly suitable for Du Gui at that time, and no matter how Du Gui examined it, he couldn't see any hidden traps. Plus, the mental pressure from Zhen Chan made him feel that someone with such strength had no need to scheme against him, and so he fell into the trap.

Zhen Chan snorted coldly and asked, "I won't deceive you. I passed the Holy Light Technique to you, this kid, simply because the technique suits you, and the sect of the Holy Light needed to branch out and flourish."

Du Gui prostrated on the ground and said, "I beg the senior to teach me. In this life, Du Gui will uphold the Holy Light and never waver!"

Zhen Chan let out a strange laugh, "Uphold the Holy Light? Does your young master know about this?"

"The young master has been kind to me, but the senior has the virtue of imparting the technique to me. Hence, if the senior did not instruct me to keep it secret, I shall not speak of it unless the main house inquires. If the master asks, I can only apologize to the senior."

Over these past few months, he had grasped the Holy Light Dao and found that this Law Gate emphasizes rules and morality. Thus, he believed he had figured out the senior's temperament.

Although he disliked the Law Gate's emphasis on rules, it was his only path to standing out.

"Hmph," Zhen Chan snorted coldly and placed his palm on the other's head. In the dream state, he performed the action of using the "Holy Light." Then, in another dream state, Wang Qi himself invoked the Holy Light Magic, and the powerful Negative Entropy Force, like a vast river, cleansed Du Gui's body.

At the same time, something resembling a Cultivation method emerged in Du Gui's mind.

Zhen Chan flicked his sleeves and turned to leave, "You'd better Cultivate well. I will come back in three days to see if you can keep it up."

Du Gui sorted through the information in his mind and was flabbergasted.

"This... This seems to be a Divine Tao Secret Method? No, it doesn't quite seem so. The Divine Tao Secret Method is about praising the gods, walking the path of the gods, and connecting with the gods. But this secret technique does not mention any respect for the gods... The Holy Light is not a deity but a kind of... transcendent existence? The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth? Is it a secret method similar to those of Ancient Buddhism?"

And in the place he could not see, Zhen Chan's mouth curled into a mysterious smile.

Hehehe, no wonder the kid enjoys playing with people so much, it indeed is a delightful thing to do.

Just curious, what expression will the kid have upon realizing the true nature of that Cultivation Method?

You see, that Cultivation Method is actually based on a part of Wang Qi's Suggestion Technique with the Three Majestic Mantas, intricately modified into a Divine Tao Cultivation Method!
