Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 570 - 322 The Essence [Seeking Monthly Passes, Seeking Recommendations]
The essence of the Circle of Reason seems to be a whole. Yet from another dimension, it is also an orderly system.
The entirety of the Divine Spirit can be described with a lengthy and complex formula. The constants within the formula are its genetic information, each prime factor is a tissue that constitutes its body, the algorithms formed from various prime factors are its organs, and the integration of all algorithms is the true form of the Divine Spirit.
The pink radiance that Wang Qi released was in essence a special algorithm. It only took this form within the Illusion. In reality, the Renormalization Heavenly Song Power, based on quantum electrodynamics, carried a large amount of Spirit Sense, following the guidance of Wang Qi's Spiritual Sense and piercing through the labyrinth of space, colliding directly with the body of the Divine Spirit.
The nature of Divine Power is similar to the Renormalization Heavenly Song Power. This is the powerful Law that Wang Qi tested on Zhao Qingfeng.
The Wind King of the Holy Infant Sect, that caring father and pure son, was also essentially a more complex "system"!
Yet, on the physical layer, the true form of a Divine Spirit is a "field," much like a Soul, manifested as a Spirit Energy Field through electromagnetic interactions. However, the Divine Spirit is not just this body. The true foundation of its body lies within the Believers. Part of its body is hidden within the bodies of Believers. This is where its lifeblood and vital point are located. As long as the Divine Sect remains, the Immortal Divine Spirit cannot die.
It's like a many-legged bug that has distributed its brain and heart into its feet. Killing its body doesn't necessarily mean you can kill it.
After sensing changes in its body, the power of the Divine Spirit scattered among the Believers began to counterattack, with its original algorithms re-strengthening the Circle of Reason. After the containment was lost, the Circle of Reason became immensely large—it is a "Law," not merely a "concept." What scientists see as cosmic laws are often defined by human language as "concepts." Therefore, in Wang Qi's eyes, the Circle of Reason, set as a "Law," rightfully appeared so immense.
When the Divine Spirit's body encountered the crisis, this signal instantly transmitted to the Believers, who served as terminals, through the Divine Tao System. At that moment, all Believers felt an inexplicable terror and fell to their knees to pray without reason.
Oh, God...
Oh, God...
Oh, God...
They didn't know what they were praying for, they didn't even know what they were praying to, because in the setting, the Circle of Reason itself was the heavens—a conceptual existence, elusive, with no Personality. Wang Qi had never taught them any form of worship ritual. Yet, they felt they couldn't be at ease if they didn't do something.
The electromagnetic waves emanating from within the Soul, carrying a powerful flow of Spirit Sense, soared toward the body of the Divine Spirit. Inside the black fog that the Circle of Reason had dispersed into within the Illusion, symbols of constraint and Order shaped like circles re-emerged. It was a strange face, flat, with elliptical features, like a child's scribble. Then, the Circle of Reason stretched out two hands that didn't resemble human hands, but eclipsed the sky and were even larger than planets themselves—they could envelop planets with just a turn of the palm!
"Not bad VFX," Wang Qi was very satisfied with the performance of this Divine Spirit, feeling that even the effects of past blockbuster movies from the West were not much better. Then, the pink Light Group in his hand transformed into a Light Arrow and surged upward.
The Circle of Reason had become larger than the planets, while the Light Arrow released by Wang Qi was only as thick as a thumb, appearing utterly powerless against the terrifying shadow. However, a "hole" appeared at the point where the Circle of Reason was struck. The Circle of Reason itself was pouring into that hole.
In reality, Wang Qi's Great Power pressed down magnificently. The invisible Qi Vein River poured the refined Spiritual Energy from beyond the heavens into Wang Qi's body. The Life Flame accelerated this process several times. The mighty Magic Foundation instantly Refining the Mana. The continuous Mana surged like a tide, overwhelming the Circle of Reason, twisting it. Subsequently, an immense force poured into the bodies of the Believers through the connection between the Divine Spirit and the Believers.
Every Believer of the Circle of Reason couldn't help but convulse. They only felt a bizarre Strength rise from the void, penetrating deep into their Souls. Then, they felt as if they had lost something precious, tears streaming from their eyes in unison.
This sensation lasted only an instant.
Then, each of them displayed a blank expression.
The Heart Demon Curse was not lifted, and Wang Qi's Mana was not enough to eradicate this malicious Law. He had merely planted another Spell within their Souls that was similar to the Heart Demon Curse but had a completely different effect; this Spell had no infectivity, nor did it have the function of "networking." It merely could simulate the divergence eradicated by the Heart Demon Curse once again.
It was like a program; the Heart Demon Curse was a BUG, and Wang Qi didn't have the ability to erase this BUG, so he added a redundant piece of code to cover it up. The BUG was still there, but it would no longer be noticed during its execution.
Then, another seven days passed.
On that day, Wang Qi, dressed in a black robe with a black hood, his face covered with a black cloth, embodied the appearance of a mysterious figure.
He was enveloped in a white glow that was harmoniously pervasive, the true manifestation of Holy Light. It was not a widespread, mediocre imitation of his Divine Skills but the authentic Negative Entropy, the symbol of Life's orderly Strength!
As his understanding of the Human Dao deepened, Wang Qi had mastered the Life Flame, along with all the changes that came with it, now clear in his mind. Holy Light was also a variant of the Life Flame, and he could now deploy it again.
But his actions were more than that.
He mixed the strength transformed by the Heavenly Song with the radiating Holy Light, spreading it all around. The Renormalization Heavenly Song Power was imperceptible, and when combined with the Holy Light carrying Negative Entropy, it could spread even further. The entire Divine Capital was under the influence of Wang Qi's Strength. Ordinary Cultivators would just feel inexplicably refreshed over the past few days. Disciples of Tianling Ridge, who practice profound mental methods, might sense something, but only those with similar Strength would have a similar perception.
Naturally, Wang Qi's target was Du Gui, who mastered the Holy Light Law.
Du Gui staggered along the main street. For the past three days, he had been restless, as if someone was speaking to him. He felt that it was a revelation given by the Holy Light, but he didn't know what it specifically entailed. He simply followed the feeling in his heart and walked in this direction.
His heart began to race. The closer he got to this place, the faster it beat.
Finally, at the end of the long street in front of a courtyard gate, he saw that person in a black robe. Based on his feelings, he knew that this was the senior who had guided him.
Du Gui was ecstatic, rushing over to say something.
He had already reformed himself under the guidance of the senior, recognizing his past foolishness, recognizing his own ugliness, knowing how a person's life should be spent, knowing what truly noble things are...
However, when he opened his mouth, thousands of words were stuck in his throat.
Then, Du Gui knelt down and gave a sincere kowtow: "Senior…"
Everything was unsaid. They were both followers of the Holy Light and were supposed to understand everything—indeed, it was so, because Wang Qi was forcibly broadcasting his thoughts into Du Gui's mind by simulating abilities akin to those between a Divine Spirit and its Believers using his own Mana.
Watching Du Gui like this, Wang Qi was very satisfied. Over the past half-year, Du Gui had been spreading the doctrine of the "Holy Light" to people around him, invoking the name of the "Holy Light" when discussing with the literati. He himself possessed a faint Negative Entropy Force. Although not like the days of "God Creation" in the Silver Dawn, constantly with full-on Holy Light, pouring power into a vague system, but he had continued something special—a "embryo" of a Divine Spirit.
Wang Qi thoughtfully then nodded at Du Gui and turned to enter the house. Du Gui got the hint—Wang Qi made sure he had no choice but to get it—and followed.
Then, he saw the silver-inlaid crucifix.
Unlike the Circle of Reason which was set to be "hidden and not apparent", the God of Holy Light was the "manifestation of Dao Morality"; thus, the crucifix was already shining with an unnatural white light. To someone like Du Gui, who possessed the Holy Light Law, that crucifix was indeed a starry sky!
The true form of the God of Holy Light was the "Moral Starry Sky".
This was the Illusion naturally manifested when encountering the God of Holy Light.
Du Gui trembled all over, performing the grand gesture of kowtowing three times with nine bows.
With the performance of this action, the God of Holy Light imperceptibly shook. It had already established a connection with Du Gui, drawing a thread of Divine Spirit essence from within him. However, Du Gui and the other members of "Silver Dawn" had yet to merge into one system.
Wang Qi frowned and said, "In the East Wing here, there's a small group called Silver Dawn. From today on, you will guide their Cultivation!"
"Yes," Du Gui was completely obedient to Wang Qi, asking neither why nor who were in this small group.
In his mind, the followers of the Holy Light should all be as righteous as their senior.
"These people are a bit stubborn, so please be patient with them." Wang Qi's intention was for Du Gui to transform the faith of Silver Dawn, so he specifically mentioned, "Additionally, there are a few rules here that I need to tell you about…"
After explaining everything, Wang Qi introduced Du Gui to a few members of Silver Dawn. Then, he discovered that Du Gui seemed to have truly entered the system of Silver Dawn!
After secretly using the Thousand Illusion Divine Spell to protect Du Gui from the corrosion coming from the God of Holy Light, Wang Qi instructed him to go back and interact more with his own developed Believers. Then, he walked out of the courtyard, meeting the angry gaze of the Golden Core Stage old servant Du Zhong.
Wang Qi had forced him and a group of servants to worship the God of Holy Light for nearly two years. Since he never believed in the God of Holy Light, he had not made direct contact with the Divine Spirit. However, he had subtly gained some slight strength—from the system of Silver Dawn.
"You don't have to come here anymore," said Wang Qi casually, dismissing this forcibly obtained experimental subject with a wave of his hand, gesturing for him to leave, while starting to reflect and summarize.
Du Zhong, blind or simply shortsighted, protested, "You're not allowing me to come anymore? That's not what you agreed upon with Young Master Bin…"
"Scram." Wang Qi uttered just one word, but it bore into the depths of Du Zhong's consciousness like a piercing demonic voice. He could vaguely sense "the connection between people" and rode this connection to send a Spirit Attack. A flicker of panic crossed Du Zhong's face, he bit his lip as if intending to fight back, but in the end, he didn't have the courage.
Wang Qi didn't care whether Du Zhong really left or not, he was lost in thought.
"The criteria for determining whether a person belongs to a Divine Tao System are not based on their actions or faith, but on their self-identification and the recognition of other individuals within the system—Isn't this the 'only the church is true faith'? I even suspect whether there are real gods on Earth..."
"If we talk about the principle... The exchange of information between people, the variation of the Soul as a result, emitting unique forms of Electromagnetic Radiation... This radiation is extremely weak, but once it self-organizes according to some Order, it can form an ordered and complex system that attracts Spiritual Energy…"
"I think I've grasped the essence." (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to vote with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
