Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

"Speaking of which," he released the sphere of light from his hand.

As the sphere flickered, it descended into the World of Ten Thousand Clans.

A moment later, it had covered the entire World of Ten Thousand Clans.

An unfamiliar voice then emerged, one known to the creatures of Source Star but never heard before by the inhabitants of the World of Ten Thousand Clans.

"The Virtual World has been activated, creatures of the World of Ten Thousand Clans may..."

At this moment, the elites of the World of Ten Thousand Clans were still hosting Long Xing and Zhao Wu.

Hearing this voice, Long Xing and Zhao Wu were startled, then laughed and said, "It seems your wish has been fulfilled, the Virtual World has spread over the World of Ten Thousand Clans, and now all of you can log in."

Both were actually pleased about this development.

They were fully aware of the convenience of the Virtual World; originally thinking being an Inspector meant they could not enter the Virtual World, but now it seemed that flaw was also corrected.

The powerful figures from the World of Ten Thousand Clans, such as Baihu, did not expect the Inspectors' words to be true and did not react immediately.

"Now you can go in and experience it yourselves, come to think of it, we also want to see what's different."

Prompted by this, every Beastman couldn't contain their excitement.

"Indeed! Indeed!"

They even abandoned the ongoing banquet. All the Beastmen present followed the guides into the Virtual World.

Their location was the central hub of their world, naturally possessing a vast city.

"So this is the Virtual World? I can't feel any difference from the outside world…"

"What an amazing place, I find that I can cultivate normally."

"Is this the true purpose of the Virtual World?"

Without needing much explanation from Long Xing and Zhao Wu, they began exploring on their own, and as time passed, more and more Beastmen entered.

Wang Sheng had always been monitoring the state of his avatar in this Virtual World.

"It's better than I anticipated."

Being newly opened, many Beastmen were hesitant to log in, but even a portion represented a huge number.

Endless diffused spiritual power and Life Essence Qi were collected, waiting for Wang Sheng to utilize.

"Next, just needs some proper guidance, and the pure spiritual power and Life Essence Qi obtained from the World of Ten Thousand Clans will soon surpass those of Source Star."

Source Star, whether in terms of the number of powerful beings or the population foundation, was incomparable to the World of Ten Thousand Clans.

This outcome was foreseeable.

For Wang Sheng, this was good news.

Entering the realm of Refining God and Returning to Void meant his strength and lifespan had greatly increased; similarly, the difficulty of his cultivation had also vastly increased.

He needed pure spiritual power even more.

"The separation of Life Essence Qi also needs to be scheduled, can't let it go to waste…"

Life Essence Qi was more complex and harder to separate. With Wang Sheng constantly caught up in various affairs, he collected this energy in its initial form; it couldn't be used yet and was only stored.

Having so much Life Essence Qi and being unable to use it was truly a pity.

Thinking of this, he quickly informed Huangtian to guide the people of the World of Ten Thousand Clans to enter the Virtual World and then went directly into seclusion.

Huangtian, who was handling matters in the capital, sighed with resignation upon hearing his husband's instructions.

"I'm used to it, no worries!"

He comforted himself with these words and then threw himself back into work.

With two worlds, there were plenty of matters to handle.

...

Time passed, and three years went by.

Year 66 of the new calendar.

Three years ago, the World of Ten Thousand Clans submitted. It took three years for Datong to sort things out and get them on track. All the statutes for ruling the World of Ten Thousand Clans had been established.

There hadn't been much turmoil within the World of Ten Thousand Clans.

Because all the Beastmen discovered that their lives seemed unchanged.

With the appeal of the Virtual World, stability was natural.

For Datong, this was undoubtedly the best situation; just needed to develop in an orderly manner, and eventually, the World of Ten Thousand Clans would be completely annexed.

Whether it was territory or peoples' hearts.

Wang Sheng, who was in seclusion, was startled awake from his cultivation.

Of course, this awakening wasn't voluntary but was due to being summoned by the will of Source Star, "Yuan."

"Wang Sheng, I am only one step away from completely devouring the World of Ten Thousand Clans, which will allow the practitioners of Source Star to prepare, for Source Star will advance once more at the moment of devouring."

This devouring wasn't like any other; what Yuan referred to was fully transforming the World of Ten Thousand Clans into an Attached World of Source Star.

Wang Sheng understood this clearly.

"Should the advancement only concern Source Star?"

"That is certain, even if it is only attached, it is still a kind of plunder, but this kind of plunder does not harm the essence and is long-term, and furthermore, if the World of Ten Thousand Clans wishes to advance in the future, it must have the consent of Source Star."

"What level will this advancement reach?"

"Similar to before, an increase in territory, energy, resources, easier emergence of geniuses, and the advantages of advancing will step up a level, unfortunately, from what I see, it probably won't reach the Seventh Realm."

"Even if this advancement does not reach it, it should be soon!" Although Wang Sheng had not paid close attention, he knew that the leading powerhouses of Source Star had made significant progress.

Still, he thought of the Chaotic Realm's breakthrough to the Eighth Realm after devouring a world.

"How much does it differ compared to a full devouring? If we were to devour, would anyone reach the Seventh Realm?"

"Regarding the comparison with devouring... to be honest, it is much less, as devouring takes in everything all at once, while attachment gradually acquires benefits. However, if the world develops well, in the end, the benefits gained might exceed those of devouring. As for reaching the Seventh Realm, to be honest, it depends on fate; with no precedent, I can't guarantee it, but it's definite that if a devouring takes place, the benefits would be very significant, nearly ensuring a path to the Seventh Realm, Eighth Realm."
