Chapter 619 - 484: Demon of Fortune (Part 4)
"If one’s aptitude is adequate and resources are sufficient, with a stroke of luck, one might cultivate to the Second Realm, the Divine Wandering Realm, to possess some truly extraordinary skills."
"In the Divine Wandering Realm, the Divine Soul can transform into a wandering spirit, traveling beyond the body for several miles. If combined with some basic magic, breaking evil or exorcising ghosts is no problem. Such cultivation is sufficient to establish a Taoist temple in ordinary counties and be revered as a master."
"However, when the Divine Soul is out of the body, it’s the most fragile. Even common anti-evil substances like black dog blood can severely damage the Divine Soul. A slightest mistake could lead to the soul’s dissipation, where even mortals can inflict serious harm; it still counts as nothing."
"As for the Third Realm, the Object Driving Realm, it’s considered truly extraordinary, refining the wandering spirit into a shadow spirit, existing between the virtual and the real, not fearing evil beings."
"Able to initially intervene in the material world, drive objects, move swiftly; a single step spans several feet. Even mastering the flying sword, one can take a man’s head from a hundred steps away, worthy of being called a celestial being!"
"Reaching this stage, one can be called a True Master, highly sought after by the nobility across the entire Jin State Mansion."
"This Daoist Li Guanlong has also cultivated to the Object Driving Realm, but unfortunately... his foundation is thin, far inferior to mine!"
A trace of disdain flashes through Mang Mountain Monarch’s thoughts:
"I have already cultivated the Object Driving Realm to perfection, with a Golden Seal protecting the Divine Soul, a solid foundation, combat power far exceeding cultivators of the same realm."
"And the Fourth Realm, the Manifestation Sage Realm, is truly the beginning of the extraordinary!"
Thinking of this, Mang Mountain Monarch’s eyes fill with fervent longing:
"The Divine Soul gathers the calamity aura of heaven and earth, changes infinitely, can rely on external objects to manifest forms, transform into smoke, become mist, or condense into a true body under the moonlight."
"Before Great Success, refine the Divine Soul with mercury and lead aura. Once the entity is condensed, one becomes impervious to swords and spears, invulnerable to water and fire!"
"Such beings are formidable enough to traverse the world, known as heavenly masters."
"Creek Mountain Tao, as an orthodox Taoist sect with a longstanding tradition, has a heavenly master overseeing it. Its cultivation technique is sure to help me break through bottlenecks and step into the Manifestation Sage Realm!"
As his thoughts whirl, imagining the future, the controlled Li Guanlong begins to intermittently reveal the cultivation technique:
"Creek Mountain Tao’s core inheritance is named ’True Scripture of the Manifestation Sage through Lunar Shape Refinement,’ which guides the calamity aura into the body, casting the foundation for refinement shape..."
His voice remains stiff, yet every word is clear.
With each sentence spoken, the runes within the Golden Seal space flash synchronously, imprinting the content of the cultivation technique onto the space’s barrier to prevent omissions.
As the cultivation technique’s formulas continue to be uttered, Mang Mountain Monarch’s Divine Soul operates at full capacity, memorizing every word, every formula firmly in the sea of consciousness.
It can clearly sense that this ’True Scripture of the Manifestation Sage through Lunar Shape Refinement’ is tenfold more exquisite than ’Great Yin Soul Capturing Method.’
The explanations regarding Divine Soul refinement and the application of calamity aura within the cultivation technique directly point to the core of the Manifestation Sage Realm, precisely the orthodox inheritance it has been dreaming of!
"Good! Good! Good!"
"Indeed, an orthodox Taoist sect’s inheritance! With this scripture, my breakthrough to the Manifestation Sage Realm is imminent!"
"By then, not to mention Jin State Mansion, the entire Great Abyss State will fall within my grasp!"
"With the Golden Seal’s protection, perhaps I might even continue the ancient Ascension enterprise and step into the legendary Immortal Realm!"
While Mang Mountain Monarch’s heart is filled with dreams of dominating one region and ascending to immortality.
A voice, calm yet filled with grand Dao Rhyme, suddenly rings in its ears, like thunder erupting in the sea of consciousness:
"Indeed, a bearer of fortune, actually able to obtain an origin treasure."
Mang Mountain Monarch’s entire body stiffens, it quickly looks towards the direction from which the voice comes.
In the void, there stands a Daoist in a green robe, unknown until when, whose aura is ethereal yet vast, seemingly merging with heaven and earth.
"Is this a heavenly master?!"
Mang Mountain Monarch’s heart surges with a massive wave, soul body trembling violently; could the heavenly master’s power have reached such a terrifying level?
"Impossible!"
Chen Sheng glances at him, disinclined to speak further, lightly points a finger:
"See with the original!."
Mang Mountain Monarch only feels its Divine Soul stiffen, all the strength in its body instantly drained, firmly pinned in place, unable to move. It can only watch as the other effortlessly raises a hand and grabs.
"Buzz——"
The Golden Seal emits a mournful cry, uncontrollably flying out from the void, directly falling into Chen Sheng’s palm.
Mang Mountain Monarch’s eyes flash with extreme anxiety and despair, its heart frantically screaming:
"No! My Golden Seal! That is my opportunity!"
Yet it can’t make the slightest sound, can only watch helplessly as its fundamental means of survival falls into someone else’s hands.
Chen Sheng toys with the Golden Seal in his palm, muttering to himself:
"Indeed, an origin treasure, capable of creating a world or destroying one; such treasures can be conceived, varying in grade and differing in power."
"This seal’s foundation is thin, barely considered a Tier Five origin treasure. Even when nurtured to perfection, it struggles to cross into Tier Six, hardly useful."
