Chapter 484: Chapter 17 The Defects of the Spirit World
Wang Sheng’s words startled Zhu Xiao, then she also realized it was very likely the truth.
“Our world, which harbors animosity toward that other world, might also have the intention of suppressing these physiques by spreading the cultivation methods of the Destiny Dynasty. If they manage to suppress all the physiques capable of leading cultivation, the progress of cultivation in our world will slow significantly.”
As the first to make a breakthrough, Wang Sheng had also disclosed a lot of information to her, so she quickly identified the problem.
“Now it seems that this is the case. If people with body constitutions like Xu Qu and Ye Sheng had emerged thousands of years earlier, the cultivation progress in our world might have been much higher.”
The ability to self-heal signifies a large degree of indifference to the costs of realm advancement, so it would be strange if progress weren’t rapid.
“But how does that other world know so much, could we have started cultivating much later than them?”
That world could employ the methods of the Destiny Dynasty to scheme against their world.
That indicates they have long been privy to many things, while their own world seems to know nothing.
Wang Sheng shook his head, “We may not have started much before them. Although that world is powerful, if it weren’t for the Destiny Dynasty’s methods, we might not be weaker than them, perhaps even stronger. The only issue is the practices of the Destiny Dynasty, I suspect that their world might have seen the advent of the Destiny Dynasty very early on, and only after casting it off, did they begin to scheme against other worlds.”
The Destiny Dynasty’s methods are indeed vicious, suppressing the potential of an entire planet.
But it’s undeniable, the speed of cultivation with this method is very fast.
“Perhaps when our world was still researching Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters, their world had already produced National Guardian Level, and even Breakthrough Level powerhouses. At that time, the emergence of such powerful beings was like a dimensional strike against other worlds. If the Destiny Dynasty’s methods were not broken, that would be one thing, but if dismantled, they would be extremely fearsome, clearly…”
Zhu Xiao knew what came next. It was clear that this other world had indeed cast off the Destiny Dynasty.
In the end, she sighed and said, “Thank goodness for your existence, otherwise we would be utterly hopeless.”
Without Wang Sheng, they might still be under the rule of the Destiny Dynasty, and because that other world was watching, they would have no ability to resist at all.
Wang Sheng shook his head and remained silent. If they truly couldn’t contend, he wouldn’t blindly resist.
Zhu Xiao didn’t know what Wang Sheng was thinking. She thought about Ye Sheng’s constitution, coupled with the other world’s conspiracies, and suddenly felt it was a pity, “What a shame about Xu Qu’s physique. If it had appeared thousands of years earlier, he might already be an absolute powerhouse.”
“No need for pity, at least not until they truly reach the peak. Their body constitutions will give them an absolute advantage in combat, not something an ordinary person can compare with. Take your little disciple, for example, if he was at the same realm and had the same experience as you, do you think you could rival him, the possessor of the Immortal Spirit Body?”
Zhu Xiao thought about it and finally shook her head.
“So in addition to cultivation, figuring out ways to unlock their body constitutions is very important for their empowerment.”
“I know that, but we have no experience with body constitutions and dare not rashly develop them, fearing causing harm.” Ever since knowing it might damage the Yuan, Zhu Xiao hadn’t allowed Ye Sheng to use his abilities much, even with the safety measures set by Wang Sheng.
“We must not let one failure deter us from eating, can’t the Spirit World work?”
Zhu Xiao shook her head and said, “That’s what I wanted to talk to you about this time. It seems the Spirit World cannot simulate Shengsheng’s physique; after logging in, he’s just an ordinary person.”
Wang Sheng was taken aback, somewhat surprised.
He had not anticipated this point; the Spirit World, with the improvement of his cultivation and the level of the ‘Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter’, was continuously perfectioning its rules.
It could simulate many things, but he had not anticipated that it couldn’t simulate body constitutions.
However, he quickly came to terms with it.
[The Spirit World can only simulate the rules I understand; basic Five Elements, Qi Blood Martial Arts, Spirit paths, and Body Cultivation, I understand all their foundational constructs, but body constitutions are truly unknown to me, and it’s my first encounter, hence they are difficult to simulate.]
With a thought flashing through his mind, Wang Sheng spoke, “It might not work now, but it will in the future. For now, we can do some foundational training without incident, or what’s an advantage might become a disadvantage. Taking the initiative is still important.”
“I understand!”
Like everyone else, she trusted Wang Sheng greatly.
Since Wang Sheng had spoken, she knew there shouldn’t be any issues.
Zhu Xiao soon left.
And Wang Sheng fell into contemplation.
“It seems that as cultivators progress and new things emerge, deficiencies in the Spirit World are gradually surfacing. Time to patch it up.”
The Spirit World, from nonexistence to existence, needed to be perfected step by step to maintain strong appeal.
“It seems I need to have Huangtian gather these individuals with special constitutions, first to verify suspicions, and secondly to study these constitutions in order to reproduce them in the Spirit World.”
After making a decision, Wang Sheng sent word to Huangtian.
However, this time, it was to no avail.
“Huangtian has found the opportunity to make a breakthrough? It’s quite normal, actually.”
Huangtian’s breakthrough was also within his expectations.
“Huangtian’s cultivation method is unique. Initially associated with the Taiping Sect, the nature of the sect changed for state stability after the country was founded. His Spiritual Body also changed, but it is still related to the state. Now that the Great Unity is continuously growing stronger, it is indeed nearing a breakthrough… If my disciple has made a breakthrough, I should work harder too!”
Since Huangtian was in seclusion, he would not force him to emerge, and so he also went into closed-door cultivation for his own practice.
His insights from observing the Planet Will’s actions had been quite significant.
“Refining Qi into God. Reflection: 76%
Array: Breakthrough+3 (47%)
Talisman Creation: 9 (98%)”
These were the three areas that saw the most improvement from observing the rules. Arrays and talisman creation share the same origin, stemming from the sealing methods of the Incense Fire Pearl, which utilize the power of heaven and earth; thus, progress was significant after observing the rules.
Needless to say for the Spiritual Body, which is involved in touching the rules, the progress was directly raised by almost 8%.
This time’s observation of the Planet Will’s use of the rules, had it been the Starry Sky Rules, would have led to even greater progress.
“After digesting it, I should advance a bit more.”
Time passed, and more than a year flew by, bringing the New Calendar to year 13.
A year wasn’t much for Wang Sheng.
But for those cultivators about to make a breakthrough, it was very important.
New Calendar year 13, March 11th.
That day, Wang Sheng, deep in cultivation, suddenly sensed a change in the heavens and the earth.
This change was very similar to when Zhu Xiao had broken through to Martial Saint.
“Someone has made a breakthrough…” Wang Sheng sent out his Divine Thought and soon found out who it was, “Huangtian, you did not disappoint me.”
At this moment, Huangtian opened his eyes from a prolonged seclusion.
“I’ve broken through. Unfortunately, my path seems difficult to pass on…”
