Exploring Immortality Cultivation

Sulfur elements are more active than carbon elements, and the genetic material of sulfur-based life forms is far less stable than that of carbon-based life forms.

This was information provided by Feng Luoyi.

Perhaps he had other motives, but Wang Qi really extracted useful information from this sentence.

Sulfur-based life forms were closer to "chaos," more "disorderly".

That is to say, when unleashing the Silent Annihilation Sky Burning Palm, each strike might have a critical hit effect.

It was destruction that began from the very bottom layer of the genes. Everything moved towards chaos and disarray, the expression of the sulfur-based creatures' life source material became chaotic, and the cells were forced into apoptosis.

"Death" seemed to spread across Lu Wan's body like a concept.

This man, who had grown to three meters, made a decisive move and chopped off his own arm and shoulder. This time, the lost flesh could not fly back to him.

Lu Wan's aura plummeted to the bottom in an instant. The battle with the Divine Separation Stage Cultivator had already drained too much of his strength, and the fight with Wang Qi had caused him repeated injuries. After this strike, his body's black glow was out of control, and he was powerless to fight again in the short term.

Shu Rongrong was in a much better situation than Lu Wan. The collapse of her Wind Technique did not backlash against her, and the tentacles behind her deflected the violent winds with the exquisite and intricate Taiji Soft Strength—this was as simple as breathing for the "Wind People".

But the blow to her pride was fatal.

"Why... impossible..." Her iconic Wind Technique had been broken by the opponent using wind to control wind, and her proudest Innate Fate Great Dao hadn't even made the opponent feel its effects before it was rendered ineffective.

This was simply unreasonable!

"Kill... I'll kill you!" Suddenly, Shu Rongrong exploded with a shrill roar like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Wang Qi was no longer as composed as he was at the beginning. His entire outfit was torn to shreds, and while his mana was maintained at a certain level due to the replenishment of the Life Flame, the weariness on a spiritual level made him look very weak.

However, his eyes were bright.

Every combat was an experiment for him. He was familiarizing himself with the "technology" of this world every second, and every spell was the result of his contemplation on the fundamental laws of the universe.

And the words spoken by Feng Luoyi not long ago had enabled him to grasp "something." Even after the battle for Divine Capital ended, and Feng Luoyi withdrew his remote computing access, his combat power would be several times what it was before. Perhaps he wouldn't be as strong as he was now, where he could slaughter Nascent Souls as easily as mowing grass, and even his avatars could fight battles, but he would certainly not be someone ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators could compare with.

Even though he was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage right now!

To Shu Rongrong's frenzy, Wang Qi just smiled and made a provocative gesture.

Very well, the next spell to test is...

"Enough." Suddenly, a sacred voice interrupted the two of them. Or, as Wang Qi understood—in the voice was a hint of "sacredness" that made whoever heard it involuntarily obey.

The pink radiance that filled Divine Capital began to converge towards Wang Qi's location. Soon, a giant formed of pink light appeared above Wang Qi's head.

This body was too large. Its height of over a hundred meters caused it to appear somewhat distorted to the human eye. Arms and a spine-like fin extended at the back, fluttering like banners. From angles Wang Qi couldn't see, there was a noticeable sagittal crest on its head.

This was... a God!

Chen Feng and Chen Youjia looked in this direction.

The two of them had been jointly clearing out the low-tier Ancient Method Practitioners. The task of guiding mortals had long since become meaningless; an inexplicable force of time and space had already opened a path of survival for the mortals of Divine Capital. When the storm had hit previously, Chen Youjia had split that city-flattening force with a single wave of Sword Qi. They had faced no trouble at all. But when that "Divine Spirit" appeared, Chen Youjia couldn't help but look towards there with worry.

The vibrations that faintly transmitted at first, the wild winds, and now the Divine Spirit... That place must be the center of the Divine Capital battlefield...

The only person with connections to the upheaval in Divine Capital and possessing enough strength to be at the center of the storm was that man...

Chen Feng grabbed her: "Youjia, don't be impulsive. Wang Qi has the Heart Demon Network and the Ten Thousand Immortals True Mirror's support, that's why he has such combat power. If we go now, we'll only be a burden."

Chen Youjia said earnestly, "Just a little closer."

"Why?"

"If he has to flee, maybe I can buy him a second of time."

Looking at her determined friend, Chen Feng sighed helplessly, "Being friends with you is really unfortunate."

...

Ai Qinglan, who lay amidst the ruins, also looked over there.

She had just killed a Divine Separation Cultivator with her bare hands, her body terribly wounded. Even the raging Life Flame couldn't heal her instantly. Thus, she sadly realized that although she had successfully saved all the Modern Cultivators, she seemed to be surrounded by Nascent Soul Cultivators. Fortunately, the recent chilling feat of her killing a Divine Separation Cultivator was so astonishing that, momentarily, those Nascent Soul Cultivators were hesitant and dared not approach.

But at this moment, no Nascent Soul Cultivator was paying attention to this terrifying enemy anymore. That Divine Spirit had taken everyone's attention with its incomparable presence.

...

Inside the Imperial Palace, the Yi Family saw that divine figure too.

Emperor Da Lian, Yi Xuansheng, was about to pop his eyes out: "Zhao Qingfeng has been secretly developing a Cult? And such a divine body, at least that of tens of thousands of people's scale! How is that possible?"

Beside him, a Unification Cultivator from Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao couldn't contain his rage: "This is not what you promised!"

"Darn it, what on earth is going on?" "Why?" "How did it come to this?" "The cultivators of Divine Capital are truly incompetent! No wonder they are bred like pigs by the heterodox!"

In the midst of the argument, the Unification Cultivator from the outer sea roared, "Enough! What's the point of all this noise! No matter what changes have occurred, we are going to break out now, capture that brat Zhao Qingfeng, and then launch our attack early and return to the outer sea!"

Yi Xuansheng was shocked, "But... but..."

The array wasn't fully activated yet! If they were to force a transmission now, the low-level cultivators would definitely suffer heavy casualties! Each person from Divine Capital was the foundation for his future influence overseas; how could he possibly give up on them?

"Stop your nagging!" The Unification Cultivator from the Emperor's Extreme Split Sky Dao strode towards the door. To put it bluntly, all the Ancient Method Practitioners were taking refuge under the Holy Emperor Venerable of the Heaven Splitting Daoist Master. Whatever he said, this idiot had to listen.

But an invisible restriction blocked his path.

It was then that these elite practitioners of the Ancient Method suddenly realized they were trapped!

"Why?" "The forbidden techniques of the Imperial Palace were clearly made by the Yin Family themselves, rooted in ancient arrays and broken arrays from ages past! There's no room for the Modern Heretics to meddle!"

Not far away, Feng Luoyi, who had remotely invaded the spirit prohibition of the Ancient Method Practitioners, lowered his hand.

The Immortal Alliance had done more than just set up some restrictions and arrays when they established Divine Capital. Those were merely decoys; the Immortal Alliance simply needed to embed special magic seals and magic artifacts into the entire spiritual vein and defense system of Divine Capital, like leaving a "back door."

He hadn't put too much attention there. The plan to wipe out this group of cultivators had actually emerged after the turmoil caused by the Demon Emperor. The only two Primordial Spirit Masters in Divine Capital had issued a command: "The fish has taken the bait; time to reel it in."

There Zhao Qingfeng appeared, right under the crotch of that divine figure. Even Wang Qi had not noticed how he appeared; it was as if he had always been standing there.

Shu Rongrong and Lu Wan quickly knelt down, "Master, we have failed your expectations..."

"Enough," Zhao Qingfeng shook his head, "Wang Qi is also an awakened Immortal, possessing Immortal characteristics. Think about it, you managing to end up in such a state is also an unexpected blessing."

Shu Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief, "Master..."

Slap!

To everyone's surprise, Zhao Qingfeng suddenly sent a flying kick that sent Shu Rongrong flying, "What did I instruct you just now? I wanted him alive! Yet, you were going to kill him!"

Shu Rongrong timidly covered her cheek, not daring to argue.

Zhao Qingfeng extended his hand to Wang Qi, "Brother Wang, you still remember things from your past life, don't you?"

Wang Qi hummed dismissively a couple of times, unwilling to answer. He hadn't forgotten that this battle had arisen under Feng Luoyi's arrangements. It would be very problematic to show an untimely reaction at this point.

Seeing Wang Qi's uncooperative attitude, Zhao Qingfeng laughed heartily, "A body of equal breed, a mind of equal civilization. Immortals naturally have Immortal ideas and perspectives, and what they plan is naturally not something that the mundane can understand. Brother Wang, if you don't trust me, I have nothing to say. However, I am a person from the Immortal Heavenly Divine Court, and have a certain authority here. Brother Wang, if you would serve under my command, naturally..."

Wang Qi interrupted Zhao Qingfeng, "Immortal Heavenly Divine Court? What's that?"

Zhao Qingfeng was taken aback, "You too have incomplete memories? Or is it that a mixed Immortal, who is outside of Immortal Heaven, could actually use self-awakened Immortal characteristics to defeat these two useless beings beyond his level?"

Wang Qi furrowed his brows, "You truly come from Immortal Heaven?"

"So it is, a leader among the Wandering Immortals," Zhao Qingfeng said with a warm smile, "Well then, it's all the more essential for me to bring you back to Immortal Heaven."

Wang Qi frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Surrender. You will pledge allegiance to me, that is destiny; you will kneel before me at this moment, that is also destiny!" Zhao Qingfeng didn't wish to explain further, extending a finger toward Wang Qi for judgment, "Under the vastness of the heavens, there is endless strength, and the greatest of them all is destiny!"

As Zhao Qingfeng's words spilled out, Wang Qi felt a special "strength" stand out around him. Before he could grasp what was happening, his mana suddenly went awry, and a warm current surged down from his foot meridians. Just like an uncontrollable knee-jerk reflex, Wang Qi's legs instinctively dropped to a kneel!

"What?" Wang Qi didn't understand what had just happened. He hadn't felt any manipulation over his mana. The experience just now felt more like a random deviation of his mana, an entirely accidental event.

A sudden deviation in cultivation technique on the battlefield was possible.

An involuntary reflex caused by a deviation in cultivation technique was also possible.

But both were low-probability events. The latter, every cultivator would experience a few times, but to be specified as "kneeling down" was extremely rare. Not to mention the former, which was almost unseen in a century.

The probability of these two low-probability events happening simultaneously was not additive but multiplicative, and if represented by numbers, the probability of this event occurring could have a denominator that might even exceed the number of stars in the cosmos.

Then what are the odds of this low-probability event occurring at a specific fixed point in time?

It equated to, virtually impossible.

The Innate Fate Great Dao, weaving destinies, defeating all powerful enemies with an unparalleled dao.

The cultivation technique's deviation made Wang Qi's consciousness slightly hazy. At that moment, Zhao Qingfeng pointed at Wang Qi's forehead, "It might hurt a bit. But this is for your own good, Wang Qi."

Wang Qi felt a cool breeze pouring into his glabella, and his entire soul, like parched land, desperately absorbed Zhao Qingfeng's power. This power made him feel refreshed.

"Where's the promised pain?" Wang Qi was puzzled. But right then, Zhao Qingfeng withdrew his finger, face full of shock, "Not a Banished Immortal?"

"You're actually just a mundane being?"

"How is that possible? How can a mundane being possess Immortal characteristics?"

"It's possible," spoke the divine body behind Zhao Qingfeng as he looked stunned.

"The vastness of the cosmos far exceeds your current imagination; nothing is impossible." (To be continued.
