Exploring Immortality Cultivation

A cognitive mindset is not always bad. It often causes a tendency in human thinking, but in many situations, it actually simplifies thought.

Furthermore, because of its existence, the thinking of the Human Clan appears stable and consistent.

Therefore, a person's thinking can ensure long-term contemplation of the same proposition.

A person's choice of how to think is also a part of freedom.

However, the Sea God type lacks such freedom. Due to innate factors, they have no knowledge barriers, but at the same time, they will not have mature and complex theories.

This is an obstacle inherently difficult for them to overcome.

They are both philosophers and children.

Among the Sea God type, there are naturally discerning individuals who recognize this. It is they who summarized the shared and unchanging ideas of the Sea God type, creating the earliest Sea God inheritance.

Yet, this is still not enough to break through the innate limitations of the Sea God type.

Oh, alas. Once a Sea God type wishes to form a fixed thought circuit, it means they must abandon the characteristic of free dispersion and aggregation of their divine body, relinquish the life form of the community, and transform themselves into sediment at the sea bottom.

——The price of maturity is death.

This is the most common cause of death for innate sages like the Sea God type. They are naturally long-lived beings who almost don't need any resources to survive. The vastness of their bodies also makes them difficult to kill.

Many Sea God types willingly turn into fossils beneath the sea for their inner musings. Their remains crystallize what they consider their best thoughts, which serve as both their epitaph and the origin of Sea God type writing.

The "personality" every Human Clan member possesses is something they can only aspire to but never reach.

As for how Mi has now created a brain capable of forming fixed thought circuits, it's entirely because she interacted with the life beings of Shenzhou Hou Tu, and Tianling Ridge's study of the brain is deep enough. It should be noted that on the planet Sea Sky of the Sea God type, there are no creatures with brains. Even if there were, the primitive structures formed by a few brain cells wouldn't be recognizable as organs capable of thought.

Mi gently pressed Wang Qi: "Understand? I need you, we need you all... It's the same vice versa."

"Got it." Wang Qi sighed slightly.

The lifespan barrier and shallow mana that the Human Clan cannot overcome are worthless among the Sea God type. Whereas the personality unattainable by the Sea God type is something that every Human Clan member can automatically form after twenty years old.

However...

"'Freedom is dancing with shackles on; its true intent is not doing whatever one wants but choosing not to do whatever one doesn't want.'?" Wang Qi exclaimed: "Senior Sister, you promised not to spy on my memories!"

Mi looked confused: "Your thoughts were too intense just now, so they naturally appeared in my heart... Ah, sorry, I still don't quite understand the concepts of 'concealment' and 'deception.' In your words, our thoughts are defensively open... The current you counts as part of me, hence I can sense some strong thoughts..."

Damn you Three-Body People... Can you dehydrate?

"Three-Body People... the Immortal Alliance hasn't discovered any races of that type..."

"No, no, please ignore that segment." Wang Qi observed his breath, focused his mind, silently recited the Heart Clarity Spell, visualized the light of wisdom, collected his thoughts, and suppressed the myriad complexities within his mind. Then he asked: "Can we start now?"

Mi lightly pressed on the sea surface, and endless waves rolled, then countless symbols emerged.

"Wanxiang Diagram, third revision of the second edition." Mi said, "The low-level cultivators organized by you at the Wanfa Sect have already refined it to this step... This should be the core content of cultivation for you."

"Eh? I've only organized this for two or three months, yet it has reached this stage?"

Wang Qi was somewhat surprised. He did indeed ask Su Junyu to mobilize the cultivators of the Wanfa Sect to help develop the technology during their free time — develop an advanced language. This is not the core path, but it assists those cultivators familiar with mathematical logic and other fields, thus it is suitable for cultivators who intentionally suppress their advancement speed to practice with.

Wang Qi's initial goal was just this. After all, those cultivators refining their hearts in the mortal realm, to avoid rapidly breaking through, can't delve deeply into mathematics, at least can't invest wholly in it, leaving their minds to suppress their mana. In comparison, designing advanced languages doesn't involve too much deep stuff, the difficulty lies in the first step. Wang Qi laid the groundwork, and liberal arts students with a knack for mathematics can do it, making it perfect for those folks to practice with. His original intention was to make "designing the Wanxiang Diagram" an occasional leisure activity for some disciples of the Wanfa Sect, extracting the leftover value of these cultivators, and then advancing his own cultivation.

"Your idea is very good. This is a great system." Mi admired Wang Qi's thought: "It is precisely because 'Wanxiang Diagram' has similarities with the common language we use to communicate with the Human Clan, that some of the initial people who helped you have been granted permission to contact us."

The "intermediary language" between the Human Clan and the Sea God type is actually a unique form of assembly language. Back then, the only commonality between the Human Clan and the Sea God type was their comprehension of the logic of 'existence and non-existence,' 'or and nor,' so they chose to construct something based on 'Yin' and 'Yang' that both sides could understand.

And the Wanxiang Diagram is an advanced language, faintly associated with the same concept.

Mi extended her finger again, gently pointing at Wang Qi. Instantly, Wang Qi felt a vacuous sensation growing within him.

His mana, his magic foundation, "were cleared."

Or rather, Mi simulated a "blank slate" physical body.

Mi opened up Wang Qi's response to the "physical body."

Wang Qi waved his hand, and the sea roiled. Countless Wanxiang Diagram characters transformed into swimming fish, swirling around Wang Qi. Each "fish" represented an instruction.

He asked: "Senior Sister, can Jarvis also be brought in?"

Mi nodded. Soon, a familiar interface appeared before Wang Qi.

The operational speed and calculation power of a calculator, to some extent, depend on the design of the spirit prohibition and the material of the calculator itself. Jarvis's "hardware" is of the highest standard of Half Immortal Artifact, barely able to keep up with Mi's acceleration.

Within six thousand times time acceleration, Wang Qi was still not satisfied. He sought — to go further!

Jarvis also released new Wanxiang Diagram characters. These Wanxiang Diagram characters are his accumulation, his updates. There are indeed quite a few loopholes in this newly born advanced language, whether Wang Qi or those low-level disciples of the Wanfa Sect have faced many. Some overlapped, while many others were new.

The combination of the two adds even more subtlety.

Under Wang Qi's guidance, countless downward official words transformed into commands and then returned to himself.

A new cultivation has thus begun!

.........

Underneath the Wanfa Sect, several cultivators are observing the brain that Mi had manifested.

Although Mi asked Yao Zhenyi to keep it confidential, the Wanfa Sect cultivators here are all of high level, with keen ears and eyes, and had long noticed the anomaly here. Many curious ones have already come over, surrounding and watching.

At this moment, the seawater around the brain suddenly churns, and Mi's spiritual power surges violently.

"This is..."

Some were uncertain, but some had already exclaimed.

"This is the sign of a perfect Foundation Establishment with the Heavenly Position Technique!"

"Senior Mi is indeed an Innate Saint, actually using this method to experiment with our Human Clan's cultivation methods?"

One Yin Yang Yao after another was condensed. In their eyes, the speed at which "Mi" condensed the Yin Yang Yao was even faster than the explosion of a myriad of fireworks!

After all, this was six thousand times consciousness acceleration.

Every three seconds on the outside, five hours pass in Wang Qi's imagined space-time. Five hours, enough to complete any breakthrough.

Mi's own computational power was sufficient to control a body larger than the Eurasian Continent on Earth, and with her high authority in the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm, she could borrow enough computing power, so achieving this level was not unusual.

The time perception of the Sea God Type itself differs from that of the Human Clan. Mi barely succeeded by relying on her innate peculiarity!

After countless invisible Yin Yang Yao linked into an array, boundless vitality suddenly surged in the seawater.

"This is... the Heavenly Calculation Atlas!"

With each passing second, this vitality intensified, as if endless. The signature white radiance of the Heavenly Calculation Atlas gradually grew from weak to dazzling. In the infinitely fast iteration, the Heavenly Calculation Atlas itself was also constantly being updated.

Then, about half an hour later, the vitality reached its peak.

Then, the surrounding spiritual energy boiled.

"Golden Core Formation!"

"Senior Mi turned to cultivating Modern methods! This is Golden Core Formation!"

"Truly at the Immortal Level! To deduce the cultivation techniques to this level in an instant!"

In the emerald seawater, the vortex surrounding the brain spun more and more rapidly. A concentration of spiritual energy so dense it was visible to the naked eye gathered, pouring like a ram's horn tornado into the position where the brain was located.

Evaporating, jumping, dazzling, like a whirlwind, like torrential rain, like sparks bursting forth...

Finally, the torrent-like spiritual energy, which flew up like a flood, suddenly gained spirituality, transforming into a wandering dragon soaring upwards; and on the other side, the seawater around the brain suddenly splashed, as if something was trembling.

Then, the next instant, the "wandering dragon" lost its spirituality, and the "roaring tiger" was silenced.

Soon after, spiritual energy surged, electrons scattered, small thunderbolt, manifest!

"Succeeded... huh?"

For Modern Cultivators, Core Formation should be the simplest step. But... but...

Mi's Golden Core, within her, only maintained for a second before it shattered?

The Wanfa Sect disciples watching rubbed their eyes, "Did I see wrong?"

.........

In the imagined space-time, after Mi backed up the data, she dispersed the slightly crazed-looking Wang Qi. Moments later, another "Wang Qi" appeared in front of her.

Wang Qi asked, "Did it fail?"

"This time the power growth was too fast, the mind was captured by the force." Mi shook her head, "Your cultivation * is really too strong."

Wang Qi asked, "Then what should we do? Slow down?"

Mi shook her head, "No, even faster."

"You need to get accustomed to that extreme speed, even, master it!"

"After all, for you, normal cultivation itself is a waste of time." (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read at m.qidian.com.)
