Exploring Immortality Cultivation

The appearance of the Unification Stage Cultivator once again ignited the emotions of the Divine Capital Cultivators. A fervent mood began to spread, and the Dao Heart Pure Yang Spell, like a potent tonic, caused the pink radiance to nearly shoot up into the sky.

The Black Robed Envoy from overseas frowned, "What kind of evil technique is this colorful radiance, exactly? At first glance, it somewhat resembles Divine Tao Techniques. But the feeling it gives, is clearly akin to that of the Heart Demon Demon Way."

"Heart Demon Demon Way…" Yi Xuansheng's face turned ashen. "That Zhao Qingfeng is really up to no good. By planting Heart Demons in everyone in Divine Capital, what on earth is he intending?"

Divine Capital's Cultivators and mortals alike were regarded as private property by Yi Xuansheng.

"How much longer until the Taiyu Formation is complete?"

Upon hearing the Envoy's question, Yi Xuansheng commanded his subordinates to use a Communication Magic Artifact to inquire. After a moment, he replied, "About an hour."

"An hour, huh." The Black Robed Envoy nodded, "That's the last hour that Divine Capital will remain on the Shenzhou Homeland."

An hour later, Divine Capital would be entirely translocated by the Array into the offshore sea region, to be received by the remnants of the Ancient Method Practitioners.

The situation overseas was far worse than the Shenzhou People imagined. For a thousand years, the Ancient Method Practitioners had been fighting against Demon Beasts and the harsh natural environment overseas. Lacking production technology, their crop yield per acre was an order of magnitude lower than that of Shenzhou, and given the multitude of Demon Beasts, it was impossible to develop fisheries—in fact, ocean fisheries r came about as a "new industry" only in the last thousand years after Modern Cultivators exterminated the Sea Demons nearby. Thus, the slaves brought by the Ancient Method Practitioners, along with the people they had secretly abducted from Divine Capital over the years, simply could not reproduce sufficiently.

They lacked everything—land, population, Cultivators, technology.

This time, they were fortunate to have made contact with a force from within the Immortal Alliance. The Taiyu Array capable of transferring an entire city was also provided by those Modern rebels. In the plan, they were supposed to bring tens of thousands of Cultivators and hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people.

Of course, none of this compared to those Banished Immortals.

"Eliminate as many Modern Heretics as possible," the Black Robed Envoy stated indifferently, "Disciples, go and meet your enemies!"

Behind him stood a multitude of black-clad Ancient Method Cultivators, with their murderous aura bursting forth.

"Here, gathers the semi-complete force of the entire outer sea. One Unification, seventeen Divine Separations, one hundred seventy-nine Nascent Souls," the Black Robed Cultivator tore off the hooded cloak that served as disguise, revealing the Xuanjin Robe characteristic of the high echelons of the Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao, "Due to limited transportation strength, we've only brought eight hundred Golden Cores."

"And our opponents, just one Heterodox Primordial Spirit and one hundred thirteen Heterodox Golden Cores."

"The war, has begun!"

Yi Xuansheng gave a slight smile, then stepped out of the Golden Throne Hall and, facing Divine Capital, activated his Mystical Technique, his voice spreading in all directions: "For two thousand years, the Heterodox have rebelled against Shenzhou, now I will fight back against them. Those who join me in this endeavor are my fellow Daoists, free to exert their power and slay the enemy. After today, we shall journey to the outer seas!"

"For a thousand years the Heterodox have scorned the Righteous Skills, slaughtering my disciples, destroying our Daoist Inheritance. Heaven above, prosperity with compliance, destruction with defiance, today I, Yi Xuansheng, bear the celestial mandate, willing to strike with my own body. I only hope that my compatriots of Divine Capital may not fear the Heterodox's tyrannical might, and resist through the power of magic!"

Yi Xuansheng's few words ignited the passion of the Divine Capital Ancient Cultivators for the third time.

Due to the suppression of the Immortal Alliance, these who dared not abandon their Established Method to learn the Modern Path had been stagnating at Golden Core Perfection for who knows how long. Centuries of despair were ignited in an instant.

Signs of Nascent Soul Formation appeared one after another. Since they had already decided to defect from Divine Capital, there was no need to heed the Immortal Alliance's prohibition; they might as well break through with abandon!

The Modern Cultivators' exploration of the Cultivation System itself had made the three stages of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Core Formation increasingly easier. By now, it was to the point where everyone could form a Core. Thanks to this, the number of Core Formation Cultivators in Divine Capital had reached a staggering tens of thousands.

Even if the chance of Alchemy Shattering Infant Formation was only one in a hundred, Divine Capital would soon gain hundreds of Nascent Soul Cultivators!

"The situation is overwhelmingly favorable," a disciple of the Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao said with a smile to a Buddhist Sect practitioner from the Thousand Lotus Sect beside him on the Imperial City wall, "Divine Capital hardly has many Cultivators."

The practitioner was a chubby, monk-like figure. Within Buddhist Sect cultivation, the concept of retribution and incense fire merit was something that the Modern Immortal Path could not accept. Such attire was already hard to come by in Shenzhou.

"It's just a pity we can't have a proper fight with those Heterodox to gauge our own strength," the large monk spoke in a resonant voice.

The Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao disciple knew him to be Martial Fool, and said, "The Heterodox are battle-hardened, it's not just talk…"

"I am well aware I am no match for a Primordial Spirit Cultivator, but a Golden Core Cultivator can't be that strong," said the large monk, his eyes suddenly lighting up, "Look over there, that woman, a Heterodox Golden Core, and she's heading this way!"

The Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao disciple was puzzled, "This way... oh, right. There's an Immortal Alliance Branch over there, a variable. Shu Yongqi is leading the attack there. This woman must be going for the rescue."

"I'll go meet her!" The large monk didn't wait for his companion to object and leaped out, confronting the woman, bellowed, "Stop there, Heterodox woman! Let me, Yuan Kong, meet you!"

With the monk's loud shout, a golden Shariputra leapt from the top of his head. A blue-green Buddhist light enveloped him. As the monk shouted, his skin also turned to a golden color, unrecognizable as human.
