Chapter 502: Chapter 29 Deceiving Heaven Skill and Energy Introduction_2
“Deceiving Heaven Skill was never something I could have researched by myself, even with a progress bar, it still exhausted my mind and spirit, but—”
“It was worth it!”
The results exceeded his expectations.
Originally, he just wanted to solve his own problem, study a fairly powerful little spell, and if that failed, find another way.
But in the end, he researched the “Deceiving Heaven Skill”.
“The Deceiving Heaven Skill can definitely solve my current problem; its other uses are certainly not minor.”
“Unfortunately, my condition is not good right now, so I can’t use it.”
Wang Sheng collected his thoughts and began to recuperate.
This recovery took half a year’s time.
The New Calendar, Year 20, July.
“Recovery complete, now to test the effects of the Deceiving Heaven Skill.”
Without hesitation, he utilized the Deceiving Heaven Skill.
“The method of deceiving heaven, first to deceive the path…”
Wang Sheng directly applied the Deceiving Heaven Skill to himself.
A force immediately enveloped his entire body.
“Primordial Spirit turns into Yang Spirit, the golden body transforms into a Divine Body!”
A mysterious power was born; his Primordial Spirit and body seemed to have undergone mysterious changes.
However, when Wang Sheng employed his own power, he could clearly sense that the force was still his original Primordial Spirit and golden body.
As for the effect—
After using the Deceiving Heaven Skill, he once again wielded the God-slaying Sword.
God-slaying Sword, slashing one’s own body.
He once again saw the boundary line from before, but this time the boundary was different.
Before, the boundary expanded as his cultivation level increased; now, it was slowly healing.
“The issue that has plagued me for a long time finally has some relief, but deception is always deception, it can’t solve the root problem. However, as long as the boundary line disappears, there’s an opportunity.”
The Deceiving Heaven Skill is very terrifying.
It can even deceive Wang Sheng’s own path.
But deception is always deception; it cannot solve the problem.
Yet, he needed just this opportunity.
With the boundary line gone, he could slowly transform himself, linking the True Body with the Primordial Spirit.
“As long as the Primordial Spirit is linked with the True Body, Inner Core Skill cannot be sacrificed, after all, who sacrifices oneself?”
What he needed was to bide his time until the boundary line disappeared, to carry out the next step of his plan.
Now all the plans had succeeded!
At this thought, Wang Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief inside.
The trouble has never been about the mistakes, but the correct path that is not one’s own choice.
Inner Core Skill is just like this.
The Inner Core Skill is undoubtedly a great path, and with its help, he had no doubt he could reach the pinnacle.
But the price of Inner Core Skill became unacceptable as his level of cultivation improved.
Fortunately, he now had a way to change this.
He felt much more at ease.
“Now just wait for the boundary line to disappear, and I can proceed with the final step. The problem isn’t resolved, but it has been alleviated, not bad.”
Wang Sheng was in a very good mood.
“If it weren’t for that article, who knows how much longer it would have taken to solve the problem.”
Although the White Ball Clan was in Datong College, and it seemed only a matter of time before they would research it, one must know that the talents of the Spirit Clan are strange and varied; every year Spirit Clan members graduate and new ones enter.
With good luck, they might research it tomorrow; with bad luck, it might take two or three years.
That article helped him a lot, even if the help was unintentional.
“Just right, I have some karma with Li Xueqian, I can go and see him.”
Li Xueqian is a person he values, and this accidental help this time piqued his interest.
His gaze turned back to Datong College, and he quickly learned much information.
Li Xueqian had graduated long ago, but he didn’t leave Datong College. Instead, he stayed and became a teacher at the Mechanical Department, continuously studying the mysteries of Mechanical Techniques.
Datong College officially valued him highly, providing him with a separate research lab and generous funding each year.
Those in the know understood this was because of his talent, but those who didn’t mistook it to be due to Li Xueqian’s status.
Datong College established many research institutes.
However, those institutes that can produce truly practical products are basically the top research institutes.
But Li Xueqian’s research institute was one of those that didn’t have obvious results but still enjoyed the treatment of a top-tier institute.
This naturally caused quite a bit of controversy.
Wang Sheng’s gaze fell, and people were talking about Li Xueqian’s research institute.
“Isn’t Li Xueqian just someone who was valued by the Leader’s Master, without any results to show for it? Why does he still get to enjoy such treatment?”
“Who can blame him for being lucky, getting noticed by such top figures…”
Li Xueqian himself inevitably heard these kinds of gossip within his own research institute.
“Teacher, there’s a lot of skepticism from the outside world. Shouldn’t we reveal some of our results?”
The personnel at the research institute were mainly Li Xueqian’s students, who knew that if he wanted to, he could disclose some results and completely shut down these kinds of remarks.
Li Xueqian was quite indifferent: “Research demands calmness. The study of Mechanical Techniques can’t be rushed. What does the outside world have to do with us? As long as we get sufficient funding each year, that’s all that matters. Our results may look impressive, but they’re actually of no practical use. What would divulging them achieve? Let’s continue our research. Oh, and apply for another batch of Energy Stones, and by the way, have Bai Yi come over.”
The students didn’t dare to go against the teacher’s words: “Of course, teacher.”
It wasn’t long before Bai Yi arrived.
“Teacher, do you need my help again?” Bai Yi was also a student from Datong College, so calling him teacher was no issue at all.
“Yes, thank you for your assistance!”
Almost a year ago, Bai Yi had come to tell him someone had injured him, and he had taken it seriously.
From Bai Yi’s description, he guessed who it was.
Such notable figures taking note of the White Ball Clan couldn’t be ignored, and at the same time, an injury to the White Ball Clan had led to certain breakthroughs in his theoretical research.
Therefore, he frequently had Bai Yi come to cooperate.
Looking at Bai Yi, who had transformed into a gaseous form, Li Xueqian continuously analyzed using his own spiritual power—having transitioned from being a Qi Blood Cultivator to a Spirit Cultivator long ago, his talent was even more formidable.
Ten years had passed, and even though he had spent much time not cultivating, he was already at the Grandmaster level, just one step away from becoming a Great Grandmaster.
Grandmaster-level strength had brought him a wealth of knowledge, but there were still some regrets in his heart.
“What a pity, if I could meet that great figure, perhaps I could see more clearly… It’s time for a breakthrough; I’ve explored the secrets of the Grandmaster level almost completely.”
As a researcher, he was extremely interested in every realm.
But the greater his interest, the deeper his regret.
It was the same for the White Ball Clan. He lacked the strength to injure the White Ball Clan, but that great figure wasn’t someone he could command either.
But just then, a voice rang out beside his ear.
“Want the White Ball Clan to be injured? I can help you!”
Although it had been a long time since he heard it, Li Xueqian was sure he wouldn’t forget this voice.
“Chancellor!”
One of the two honorary chancellors of Datong College, the Leader’s Master, Wang Sheng.
He was also the one who gave him confidence.
Wang Sheng nodded, then said, “Do you want to see the state of the White Ball Clan when injured? I can help you!”
“Chancellor, is this really okay?” His heart naturally desired it, but this was the Leader’s Master.
“What’s the problem? Your research paper on the White Ball Clan was a big help to me.” If not for that, he wouldn’t have suddenly taken notice of Li Xueqian.
With Wang Sheng saying that, Li Xueqian no longer hesitated: “I would be troubled, chancellor!”
He looked towards Bai Yi.
“Would that be okay, Bai Yi?”
How could Bai Yi refuse, when last time he already knew that the great figure who had injured him was the strongest at Datong?
Could he say no?
Bai Yi agreed, and without hesitation, Wang Sheng used the God-slaying Sword, explaining as he operated: “This is one of my offensive methods; it can affect the physical body through the Spiritual Body…”
He didn’t know what Li Xueqian wanted to study, so he directly explained some of the mysteries of the God-slaying Sword to Li Xueqian.
It was not his main method of attack anyway.
Li Xueqian listened while recording Bai Yi’s state.
At this moment, his gains were greater than in the past several years; the perspective of a powerful being provided insights that were incomparable to any book.
Bai Yi, at the peak of Grandmaster level, quickly recovered from his injuries.
Wang Sheng then spoke up: “Need more?”
Bai Yi: So I’m really just a lab rat…
But he didn’t say it out loud.
Because Wang Sheng gave him more cultivation resources.
Li Xueqian returned to his senses and immediately said, “Thank you, chancellor, it’s enough for now. But if possible, I hope you could take a look at what I’ve written and give me some guidance…”
Li Xueqian flipped open a book from the table.
The cover was scrawled with a few large characters.
