Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

A Sixth Realm expert died without a sound.

From soul to body, all were annihilated.

The Causality Killing effect of the God-slaying Sword was even better than expected, and it even allowed him to obtain fragments of memories.

"It's truly terrifying. If my skill level were higher, say, achieving six Breakthroughs or more, could I eliminate someone just by establishing causality?"

The ability of causality was incredibly peculiar.

Of course, generally speaking, unless one specifically cultivates causality, this ability wouldn't pose much threat to experts of the same level, at most it would create some disturbances.

At critical moments in an enemy's cultivation, it could be highly effective, but under normal circumstances, it only works perfectly against those weaker than oneself.

But which powerful individual would constantly target someone weaker than themselves?

Wang Sheng killed Li Xin because Li Xin caused trouble and might have caused even greater problems; it was a lasting solution.

The final outcome was quite good; Li Xin indeed had troubling intentions, but he was taken out before he could act.

"What's the fun in watching the chaos?"

The power he sent through the crack wasn't much, needing to seek a life form from the World of Ten Thousand Clans amid hundreds of millions.

If luck wasn't on his side, he might never find it, but fortunately, Li Xin herself approached the portal between realms to watch the excitement and was instantly located.

Thus, Wang Sheng felt relieved by the smooth progress.

He even sent her a large gift package.

"Heavenly Saint Star, the strongest in the Eighth Realm, seems there are three, all belonging to the most powerful force, Heavenly Saint Palace, established by the strongest, Heavenly Saint..."

Li Xin dared not reveal too much, coupled with her incomplete memory.

The information about Heavenly Saint Star in her memory was superficial.

But for Wang Sheng, it was enough.

"I still can't make a move yet!"

The original Wang Sheng, who hadn't planned to act immediately, became even more resolute in his decision after learning of the strength levels.

With the Eighth Realm's presence, wanting to open the cross-realm portal, one would need to wait until an avatar capable of surpassing the Seventh Realm.

"That's fine, though the World of Ten Thousand Clans has been sorted out, neither Datong nor my Virtual World has fully digested it yet; there's no need to rush, and the Virtual World now also cannot completely cover the third world."

Heavenly Saint Star was even larger than the World of Ten Thousand Clans, having undergone at least six transformations.

The Virtual World, although partially vacant, could not completely overwrite it; he needed to digest the World of Ten Thousand Clans to increase his strength.

"Just relying on the rise of Pure Spiritual Power is too slow..."

His current rate of strength increase wasn't slow actually, but compared to before, it definitely couldn't keep up.

Therefore, he needed another method.

Heavenly Saint Star was there and wasn't going anywhere; Wang Sheng set the matter aside temporarily and turned his thoughts towards his cultivation.

"The slowdown in improvement, apart from cultivation advancement, actually also relates to the God and Body Integration; it seems like raising one aspect, but in fact both Primordial Spirit and the physical body must be raised simultaneously, making the original pure spiritual power appear insufficient. If combined with the Blood Creation Pill that can enhance Qi Blood Cultivation, progress would speed up, but there are better methods..."

Apart from the Blood Creation Pill replenishing Qi-Blood, Wang Sheng actually also had the Nine-flavor Calming Heart Pill which replenished spiritual power, but it was seldom used.

The main reason was the presence of Pure Spiritual Power, which made the Nine-flavor Calming Heart Pill seem less essential.

Pure Spiritual Power was used to advance cultivation, more direct and quicker.

"So the focus is still on Life Essence Qi..."

Ever since discovering Life Essence Qi, Wang Sheng had been researching methods to separate the Life Essence Qi.

But Life Essence Qi was hundreds of times more complex than spiritual power.

Comprising Essence Qi and Spirit, it also contained spiritual power intertwined deeply with various stray thoughts and desires.

Thus, there were no critical advancements.

As long as there was a slight advancement, Wang Sheng could analyze it through the progress bar.

Regrettably, that critical step hadn't been taken so far.

"No rush, Pure Spiritual Power can still be enhanced; it's just slower. A lifespan of 196,000 years gives me enough time..."

After comforting himself, Wang Sheng entered retreat again.

Externally, all was still calm; Datong was making efforts to digest the World of Ten Thousand Clans.

A year later, in the new calendar year of 68... Wang Sheng came out of retreat.

This exit wasn't due to a breakthrough but trapped in a certain bottleneck.

His cultivation continued to advance, but the problem of Life Essence Qi remained unsolved.

Wang Sheng knew that continuing to work in isolation would simply not work, so he visited the library of Datong College.

The library of Datong College, although most of its books were reproductions, was where secret manuals were most comprehensively available.

It was also the place with the most novel ideas.

His inspiration for solving the boundary problem was found there; this time, he did the same.

This visit spanned two years.

New calendar year 70.

Datong marked 70 years since its founding, with the external world preparing for grand celebrations.

Wang Sheng was still in the library, studying various secret manuals.

Two years passed, cultivating and reading within it.

As a Ninth Realm expert, unless he chose, no one could see him.

Because of the 70th anniversary, there were hardly any visitors to the library.

But there were rare exceptions.

An elderly man who looked between 70 and 80.

Though old, he had a dignified bearing, chest puffed and head held high, a scholarly aura as if nothing could bend his spine.

His robe was special, the standard attire of a teacher from Datong College.

Wang Sheng discerned his state at a glance.

He looked spirited but had a dim life force, not long to live, appearing 70 or 80 years old, but actually he was over 130, about the same age as Wang Sheng, yet his life was like a candle flickering in the wind.
