Exploring Immortality Cultivation

The woman seemed in a hurry to continue on her way and was startled upon encountering an obstruction, after which, she sighed. Raising her bare hand, she pointed out from a distance!

"Roar!" Yuan Kong made a stance reminiscent of the Lion Roar. Fierce Buddha Power steamed off his golden body because he had cultivated the Dharma Body, a Non-Dual Method of the six-foot Gold Body which made his physique extremely strong, far surpassing that of an average Martial Cultivator. Such finger techniques that focused on puncturing surfaces were utterly useless against him!!

Unexpectedly, the woman's finger power did not intend to penetrate Yuan Kong's body. The force merely vanished upon contact with his skin, seemingly only making it itch!

Not using penetrating power or sharp energy in finger strikes, was this... foolish?

Are the Heterodox really adept at combat?

Although his Unbreakable Golden Body could not effectively block this mysterious mana... So what? It merely contacted the surface of his skin. What use was that?

The Heterodox woman reacted even quicker than Yuan Kong. Seeing her initial strike did not succeed, "she promptly countered with a palm strike." The force was heavy and powerful, hurling Yuan Kong a dozen feet backward in retreat. The excited Martial Fool monk exclaimed, "That's more like it! Strong enough!"

Unexpectedly, the woman flew away without looking back.

Yuan Kong was about to chase after her when a disciple of the Emperor's Extreme Heaven Splitting Dao timely blocked him, "Daoist Fellow Yuan Kong, the Heterodox are mysterious, beware of stealth injuries!"

"That woman had considerable strength, but average skills, not nearly enough to penetrate my Unbreakable Golden Body, the Vajra Unbreakable Divine Skill!" The monk patted his chest, indicating he was unharmed. However, unexpectedly, that pat brought a slight pain in his chest.

He tore open his monk robes to see a dark bruise forming.

"Hmph, trivial tricks." Annoyed, the monk activated his Body Refining Techniques, intending to immediately eliminate his physical injuries and seek retribution from the woman, but upon using his techniques, he found, surprisingly, that the pain intensified.

"A stealth injury?" Yuan Kong was shocked and increased the intensity of his healing efforts. Yet, it was as if his chest had become a bottomless pit—no amount of Spiritual Power could heal his injuries.

No, this was not right; the more Spiritual Power he deployed, the more his chest hurt. Not only that, the pain seemed to have a consciousness of its own, slowly spreading throughout his body. The areas of pain increased in number and size.

"Ah!"

Under the horrified gazes of his companions, this Buddhist Cultivator, fortified by a sturdy physical body and a dharma body, together with his Gold Body, gradually corroded, turning into a black mass of rotting flesh.

Even in death, he could not believe that his Golden Body, painstakingly cultivated over hundreds of years, could be so easily destroyed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ai Qinglan had no intentions of looking back. In her mind, any person struck by that move was undoubtedly doomed to die.

Moreover, the stronger the physical body, the quicker the death.

Life Poison Finger, a practical application of the divine skill "Vein Spirit Root," in which the power of the skill races along the cell apoptosis signaling pathway. It does not control the cells to undergo apoptosis directly; rather, it disrupts a specific segment of the bloodline root through the directed nature of this unique channel.

That segment of the bloodline root, or that group of genes, is a mechanism that suppresses cell division. In other words, Ai Qinglan's previous strike forced more than half of that monk's physical body to undergo forced cancerous transformation. A vast majority of his body cells turned into cancer cells in an instant, which even a high-order cultivator couldn't endure.

The palm strike she added carried a trace of Life Flame in secret. With the tremendous vitality as a supplement, those cancer cells could occupy the monk's entire physical body in just a few seconds. Moreover, Ai Qinglan had laid a trap in secret; the monk's Nascent Soul could not escape from his physical body and was absorbed by the uncontrollably dividing cancer cells.

The human immune system does not attack cancer cells since they are recognized as part of the body itself. Even using spiritual power to enhance the activity of the physical body is useless; on the contrary, it could lead to quicker death.

Unless the attack propagated through the cellular signaling pathway is neutralized before it reaches the physical body, death is inevitable! Cultivators below the Divine Separation Stage do not even have the qualification to resist such an attack!

However, this time, Ai Qinglan is likely to face a Divine Separation Cultivator.

"Leading the people of the Immortal Alliance Branch out... really, Senior Feng is truly imposing impossible tasks!"

After muttering a complaint in secret, she sped up again. The Immortal Alliance Branch was already in sight. Upon closer observation, the situation there was already dire. A Divine Separation Cultivator was leading about twenty Nascent Soul Cultivators in attacking the branch's station. On the other side, fewer than twenty Golden Core Cultivators led over sixty Foundation Establishment Cultivators, utilizing arrays to strengthen their defense. But the moment the Divine Separation Cultivator made a move, the entire formation began to falter.

"Stop!" Ai Qinglan cried out, surrounded by white Life Flame. The trail of white flame behind her body then automatically gathered and transformed into a double-helix whip.

Her action was nothing less than astonishing; the Divine Separation Stage Ancient Method Practitioner exclaimed, "This woman is not simple; she is a true inheritor of Tianling Ridge. I will personally handle this, be careful!" As he spoke, reddish-golden mana converged into a long dragon, coiling around him as a guard. In an instant, golden and white lights collided.

Wang Qi floated mid-air, struggling to avoid battling with other cultivators. This was not because he was tactfully protecting himself, but because he had a more important task.

Guiding the mortals of Divine Capital.

Divine Capital was a place where immortals and mortals coexisted, yet clearly demarcated. The closer to the center of the city, the more nobility there was. Conversely, the closer to the city's edge, the more mortals there were. Currently, the battle was mainly concentrated in the middle of the city and had not yet reached the outskirts.

However, the situation was bound to change soon. He must guide all mortals to a safe zone outlined by Feng Luoyi before that happens.

Only he could accomplish this task. Wang Qi's first achievement in mastering the Human Dao was operating the pedestrian flow cellular automata. With sufficient computational power, he could precisely calculate the human flow of an entire city. During this special moment, Feng Luoyi had also granted him unrestricted access in the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm, allowing him to freely utilize the entire network's computational power!

Moreover, he still held the Heart Demon Curse.

Feng Luoyi's transformation was not yet complete, thus the zero-level authority memory bodies were still in their possession. However, the two special memory bodies on Wang Qi's belt, specifically treated by Feng Luoyi, meant he didn't have to worry about the monster roaming the Heart Demon Network and could freely use the Heart Demon Network. Furthermore, he could indirectly enforce suggestions to the cursed using the Heart Demon Curse. Now that everyone in Divine Capital was infected with the Dao Heart Pure Yang Spell, Wang Qi could directly command all people!

Data that did not need real-time processing was handed over to the Ten Thousand Immortals True Mirror; data requiring immediate processing was managed by the Heart Demon Network. The current Wang Qi had far surpassed the concept of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, Wang Qi had no intention of picking a fight to test his abilities. He was desperately avoiding combat. But soon, trouble still found him. (To be continued.
