Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 796 - 219: Golden Core Methods, Mere Nascent Soul

Wang Qi slowly landed on the ground, feeling like everything had changed.

A single Golden Core swallowed into the belly, from now on my fate is mine, not governed by the heavens.

The Golden Core is another transformation along the cultivation road, the final step of the Human World's three realms, the pinnacle of "Mortal World." Beyond that lies the transcendence.

The world in Wang Qi's eyes was now completely different.

One root of this sensation is his own immense computational power.

Not the computational power obtained through Jarvis, nor the computational power entrusted to the Ten Thousand Immortals True Mirror and Heart Demon Network, but his own computational power.

Wang Qi's strength had increased only by dozens of times compared to before, but his own computational power had improved by several hundred times.

It's not difficult to understand; after a computer is upgraded, its computational power within the same volume is several times greater than before. Under the same conditions, the functions it can perform are countless times more than its predecessor.

Another root of this sensation is the virtual high-dimensional space in Wang Qi's mind.

A purely mathematical, completeness-satisfying linear inner product space, a virtual infinite-dimensional Hilbert Space.

Everything can be reduced to a single point in this space. A point within this space can form the projection of everything in a three-dimensional space.

This is the supreme absolute skill of the Wanfa Sect, the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique.

This virtual Xiangyu provides him with a new perspective. He can stand at a higher dimension, perceiving more details of things, and even simulate the development of things in his mind.

Accumulation of the Wanfa Sect's millennia-old experiential formulas makes it possible to achieve almost anything with the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique.

A disciple of the Wanfa Sect who masters the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique truly possesses the skill of "one law gives birth to ten thousand laws."

"I've finally 'successfully transitioned.'" Wang Qi sighed softly. The Wanfa Sect was initially a weak profession relying heavily on equipment. But now, it's different.

Wang Qi extended his hand, and golden ripples blossomed in his palm.

The foundation of Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy is the Schrodinger equation, which is a description of state vectors in the Hilbert Space coordinate system modeled by Schrodinger's Painting. For Wang Qi, after breaking through to the Golden Core, the enhancement of this previously unanticipated and rarely used cultivation method was the greatest.

"What exactly can you do..." Wang Qi, standing on the southern shore, extended his hand, and the Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy responded immediately. Wang Qi, having approached the DH interpretation in microscopic physics, found that his Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy no longer collapsed upon observation but presented a different phenomenon instead.

Wang Qi stretched out his hand, gave a forceful swing. The spiritual power originating from the infinite-dimensional Hilbert Space underwent decoherence in this four-dimensional spacetime, and a history cluster was selected. Then, the Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy automatically collapsed into a Sword Qi.

The crescent-shaped Sword Qi diagonally cut into the seawater, splashing up a blossom of water. Wang Qi was startled. This Sword Qi manifested a fundamental power not from any method he cultivated, but rather the power of the Da Luo Chaos Heaven Scripture taught by Zhen Chan.

"All things... all phenomena..."

After the initial surprise passed, Wang Qi soon calmed down. Suddenly, like someone who found a fun toy, he tried using Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy with great interest.

"The vast majority of laws can be used."

"Except those related to gravity."

The foundation of Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy is quantum mechanics, the Schrodinger equation. However, this realm has always been unable to explain gravity.

That is the domain of relativity.

Actually, compared to quantum mechanics, relativity is currently the most complete theory.

The Heavenly Calculation Atlas can indeed encompass the Shape Comparison Technique and the Mysterious Path, but the foundation of the Heavenly Calculation Atlas is evolution, which translates to "probability" in mathematics. It can be said that using the Heavenly Calculation Atlas to forcibly merge quantum mechanical and relativistic cultivation methods is essentially a "black box operation deriving results through experiential formulas after assuming a grand unification truly exists".

However, those are topics for later.

Anyway, he had already reached the peak of the mortal realm, and in the next nine years, he would refine his Golden Core, then seek the path to the Primordial Spirit.

Wang Qi lightly landed on the ground and retracted his shoulder armor. Next, he held the Moonset Glaze Sword, covering it with the enhanced Life Flame.

"Hmm... I've become stronger..." Moonset Glaze seemed to be in a very cheerful mood. With Wang Qi's increased strength, the effects of the Life Flame also improved dramatically. Now, Wang Qi could give her a sense of injury healing.

This is the power of Core Formation.

"Congratulations," Mi said to Wang Qi, "But I can't give you any gift, that greeting gift was already valuable enough; I think it should suffice, right?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Wang Qi waved his hand: "Core Formation is not such a big deal, why would you need to prepare a congratulatory gift?"

Thousands of years ago, when a cultivator formed a Golden Core, they would hold a grand opening of their mountain gate to receive congratulations from all directions. However, today, this process seems very unnecessary. In this era where just stepping onto the Immortal Path can lead to Golden Core Formation, such ancient customs only make social niceties seem especially cumbersome.

For modern cultivators, forming a Golden Core is such a trivial matter that celebrating it at home is sufficient. The Divine Separation Stage might give you an opportunity to speak on a podium at your sect or the Immortal Alliance. Only a carefree practitioner is worth celebrating worldwide.

It's like when someone graduates from college, having a nice meal at home is enough for a celebration; a graduate school graduation might warrant a banquet with friends and family; for a scholar becoming an academician, a presentation celebration is not too much.

This is also why Yue Luo Liu Li never congratulated Wang Qi. From the perspective of the Dragon Clan, Core Formation only symbolizes the end of childhood; even the Transformation Stage is considered underage. The realm Wang Qi has reached now is something they can achieve even while sleeping.

Mi, who has no concept of realms, congratulated simply out of "etiquette".

"Putting that aside for the moment, isn't the current situation a bit troublesome?" Yue Luo Liu Li's voice came from within the long sword: "Can you feel it? Others are coming... and there are ancient human cultivators as well."

"Ignorant of death." Wang Qi had just broken through his realm, feeling excited and wanting to test his skills, he asked, "Liu Li, what level are they this time?"

"They're all scattered sea demons from nearby. There are more humans, but only some Nascent Souls."

"Any divine power demon beasts? How many?"

"About two." Zhen Chan's somewhat weak voice came through: "Kid, after breaking through to Golden Core, you've indeed become a bit stronger..."

"Even if I don't use a magic artifact, just through bare-handed combat, I have the confidence to pummel a Nascent Soul cultivator one-on-one." Wang Qi gripped the Moonset Glaze Sword again: "But, I'm human after all. What's the biggest difference between humans and beasts? It's the use of tools, isn't it?"

The strongest aspect of Wang Qi's cultivation method lies in manipulating magic artifacts. Only when combined with them is he in his complete state.

And now, Wang Qi has the Moonset Glaze Sword, which can serve as both a magic sword and a power furnace, and the butterfly group, which can act as a cloud computer, a formation, and also a power furnace. Even if faced with a unification cultivator, Wang Qi is confident—he will survive! Escape!

"I thought you would say 'blast them down'." Zhen Chan said: "What are you planning to do now?"

"What to do? Of course... kill them!"

As he spoke, Wang Qi had already stepped into the space.

It was a trajectory that could be sensed but was incomprehensible, an escape technique.

Xiangyu Travel, Wang Qi had mastered it without any guidance.

The first thing Wang Qi did upon reaching a new position was to slash with his sword.

............

Some Primordial Spirit Masters once said something true. The West Sea has become a dangerous place where "demon gods roam everywhere, and transformation stages are as common as dogs."

The West Sea Dragon King, to deal with Moonset Glaze, expelled the low-level demon clan that could serve as supplements of essence here, and then gathered elite forces from all four seas.

For a demon clan cut off from civilization, the rate at which they mature is negligible compared to the human clan. However, given the sheer number of the demon clan, how long-lasting is the life span of a demon god? And how long have those sea clans accumulated?

This is why, as a Mahayana, combined with being a banished immortal with strength far superior to an ordinary Mahayana, the Master of Heaven Splitting Dao, the Holy Emperor Venerable, can only cautiously protect a small turf.

At this moment, the aftermath of Wang Qi's battle with the previous group of ancient cultivators, as well as the omen from just forming a Golden Core, had already attracted a large number of enemies, densely covering the sea surface. They were now only spectating. The initial confrontation, just based on the commotion alone, clearly involved a large group of Divine Separation, divine power demon gods, and a modern primordial spirit. With the omen of Golden Core magnified by the butterfly group, it was also at the primordial spirit level. In the eyes of many cultivators, that small island might even have two modern primordial spirits, so they couldn't act rashly.

A shark demon transformed into a humanoid form raised his head, only to have a sword pierce through his forehead into his brain. The shark demon seemed puzzled, as though unable to comprehend why he suddenly died.

Wang Qi stepped on the water's surface and released a force that clashed fiercely with a Great Demon five zhang below. The Transformation Stage Great Demon only felt an immense force strike, and with that, Wang Qi "stomped" him unconscious, flipping belly-up and floating on the water's surface.

Wang Qi was quite satisfied with this landing spot. He stood on the belly of this large fish, surveying his surroundings.

With just a glance, he grasped the movements of the surrounding sea demon group. The unique drawing method presented in the virtual Xiangyu allowed him to simulate the enemies' attacks in his mind!

"A modern Golden Core?" At this moment, a cold snort came through, and apart from an odd accent, the sentence was indeed in standard human language. Wang Qi followed the divine sense and saw several ancient method Nascent Souls.

In their view, a heterodox Golden Core is indeed powerful, but only equivalent to a Nascent Soul. And Wang Qi was already surrounded by so many Transformation Stage demon clans, considered among those close to death. However, they were still quite aware that a modern Golden Core was equivalent to an ancient method Nascent Soul. A Nascent Soul cultivator opened his mouth and spat out a sword ball. The sword ball turned into a streak of electric light, breaking the sound barrier with a loud bang and hurtled towards Wang Qi with unparalleled sharpness.

Facing this earth-shattering move, Wang Qi casually swatted it away like shooing a fly, sending the sword ball back on its original path. At that moment, the ancient method cultivator hadn't even closed his mouth. The sword ball burst into his mouth and exited through the back of his head. With that single move, the physical body was beyond saving.

The Arrow Control Technique, using spiritual power to directly manipulate the momentum direction of objects, achieving an instantaneous reversal of the enemy's offensive.

Only then did Wang Qi let out a cold laugh: "Mere Nascent Soul."
