Born with immortal seed

Chapter 781 Again, the Lord of Ziwei Star
"A divine summoning spell, interesting... With such close ties between Xuanzhou and the Upper Realm, how could it receive a response?"

Bai Zichen held the summoning diagram that Xuanzhou had just sent above his head. The material was ordinary, and the characters were common; it could not be considered a high-level item.

However, the names of the immortals and gods exude a wild yet sacred aura.

In the past, Zuzhou also had sects that invoked deities, and the talismans for invoking deities have been passed down.

With the dramatic changes in the world, the past methods of summoning gods could no longer communicate with the beings in the upper realm and could no longer obtain their power projection.

The entire cultivation system collapsed overnight, and the cultivators who summoned gods were also wiped out in the massive wave.

The disappearance of the Ascension Platform and the estrangement between the two realms, making it impossible to project power, is the reason for the extinction of the Summoning Gods spell.

It has nothing to do with whether the spell itself is outdated or not.

The fact that Xuanzhou can still function only indicates that the connection between that continent and the upper realm is more relaxed, and that there are many cracks between the two realms.

In such an environment, cultivators from the upper realms can even descend back to the mortal realm.

However, those with high cultivation levels cannot pass through the void passage, while those with low cultivation levels, without the protection of a supreme treasure, would have been torn apart by the void turbulence long ago.

Given that this realm has clearly been abandoned by the upper realm, it's unlikely that anyone would risk such a huge descent to this world again.

"Comparing the two, the order is exactly the same..."

Bai Zichen thought of something, and a scroll of the Ghost and God Rank Chart appeared in his hand. The order of the immortals and gods on it was exactly the same as the summoning chart of gods in Xuanzhou.

It's just one form of text and the other of an image.

“How could it be such a coincidence across continents… It can only mean that in the minds of the cultivators who invoked the gods at that time, the order of immortals and gods was fixed and could not be arranged randomly.”

This map of ghosts and gods has been with him for many years. He obtained it from his disciple Tian Yangsheng and combined it with the Enchanting Silk.

I've always felt that this scroll must hold a great secret, and that once it's deciphered, we'll reap unexpected rewards.

I had previously estimated that it would have a significant effect on my external avatars.

Even if separated by a realm, one can project power, comprehend the basics, and transform into a body that travels tens of thousands of miles away to transmit true essence or the true body to descend. This should not be a problem.

But at that time I was only at the Nascent Soul stage, far away from here, and time was tight, so I couldn't be assigned to anything above.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, I have more time, and I'm also drawn to the summoning spells of Xuanzhou, so I might as well give it a try.

Along with the invocation diagram came the Xuanzhou human race's invocation method, which had some reference value and could help him better understand the reasons behind it.

Of course, the more important reason is that the only spiritual plant in Shaohua Cave Heaven that is cared for by Bai Taotao is growing vigorously and full of life.

It seems that if we continue to grow like this, we will eventually reach maturity.

This spiritual plant is a celestial vine that grew from the Yellow Springs Gourd itself.

Nourished by the holy water of Changchun, the gourd vine spread all around the mountain, seemingly having a real chance to give birth to an innate spiritual root.

Every innate spiritual root is the most perfect embodiment.

It has the physique of a top-tier human cultivator, but without the burden of karma, and is naturally close to the Great Dao.

Compared to ordinary avatars, avatars refined from innate spiritual roots have better development prospects.

It was because of this immortal vine that he saw the possibility of refining an incarnation, which made him willing to devote his energy to the Ghost God Position Chart.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to continue honing one's swordsmanship and further improve one's swordsmanship?

"Tian Yangsheng is destined to be associated with Marshal Xuantan and can activate the statue of the deity and obtain a power projection... I have tried a few times, but not a single deity can resonate with me."

The essence of summoning spirits lies in cultivating oneself to achieve mastery, communicating with deities, and receiving a return of power.

Bai Zichen was determined to study it, and it wasn't impossible to find a way by starting with the Earth God and River God at the very end of the Ghost and God Position Chart.

When he used to visualize the idol, he tried it from high to low.

The highest-ranking Dao Ancestors and Heavenly Venerables showed no reaction, but the lowest-ranking Earth Gods and River Gods, though not emitting light, had a premonition that if this continued, they would be able to successfully communicate.

It wasn't that he had the talent, but rather his trust in his own sacred body.

As long as it's not a rigid restriction, there's no obstacle that can't be overcome.

Spending decades just to communicate with the land god and river god is not worthwhile, not only in the current environment, but even in ancient times when the art of summoning gods had not yet lost its effectiveness.

After flipping through the Xuanzhou's method of summoning gods twice, just as he was about to activate it, the Ghost God Position and Karma Diagram swallowed the summoning diagram directly.

After that, his cultivation efficiency improved dramatically, and within half a year, a local earth god at the end of the Ghost and God Position Chart lit up.

A dark and profound light shone from the statue of the Earth God and drifted toward the cultivator in front of him.

Bai Zichen was slightly startled, and a seed condensed in his sea of ​​consciousness, floating there neither up nor down.

It was like an inanimate object, neither hot nor cold, but there were faint dotted lines that seemed to connect to an unknown void.

This force was so weak that he would overlook it if he didn't pay close attention.

"In terms of power, the power feedback obtained by connecting with the Earth God is barely enough to be considered as mid-stage Qi Refining... No wonder the cultivators of Xuanzhou are exploited into slavery, how can they resist demons?"

Bai Zichen shook his head.

Normally, the deity with whom one first has a spiritual connection is the one with whom one cannot change for the rest of one's life.

No matter how much you cultivate afterward, it will be difficult to improve your power level; you will only have a closer connection and be able to summon spirits faster.

"But this power appeared out of nowhere, and I can't even tell where it came from... Could it really be a divine gift from the celestial realm, a projection of the power of immortals and gods?"

Bai Zichen's research into invoking spirits and making a living from ghosts and deities was certainly not an attempt to seek external power.

Instead, they wanted to understand its mysteries and apply them to their own omnipresence and the cultivation of their incarnations.

Looking through the Yin-Yang Eyes of the Candle Dragon, one could see an illusory star line connecting one end to the seed, while the other end disappeared into an unknown place.

Based on current information, the Earthly Immortal Realm is divided into two categories: those with and without celestial titles, whose statuses differ greatly.

Can cultivators who have reached the Void Refinement stage truly project countless worlds and transmit power?

If it were that simple, why would the Upper Realm have paid such a huge price to send wave after wave of descending cultivators?

The top figures on the Deity and Spirit Rank Chart are all mythical figures who created the world.

Can such powerful figures, at the level of Dao Ancestors and Celestial Venerables, be contacted through communion and worship to receive power gifts?
As research progressed, the role of the Ghost and Deity Position Chart began to be discovered.

In the past, in sects that invoked divine power, this would have been a treasured heirloom, allowing each disciple to quickly understand the immortals and gods who were compatible with them.

But for Bai Zichen, it was like having a cheat code.

A year after sensing the Earth God, another statue of a Celestial Master lit up, and the seed in my sea of ​​consciousness dimmed and brightened repeatedly.

The level of power received from the feedback has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Five years later, a fire deity in the middle of the entire diagram of the positions of gods and spirits emitted light, his body flashing with red light, and there were obvious signs of a rise in temperature.

However, the environment of the Time Light Stone Chamber was special, so how could it encroach on the territory of the True Meaning of Time? It quickly dissipated in the next moment.

At this moment, Bai Zichen was already able to sense some fragmented images from the statues in the Ghost and God Position Diagram.

It was a colossal, fiery star that defied description, like a true sun, radiating orange-yellow light and boundless heat.

"If communicating with immortals and gods can have such an effect, then if I communicate with another earth god, wouldn't that greatly enhance my earth spirit root!"

The power brought by the Fire God was similar to that of the Core Formation stage. Just as Bai Zichen was seeking a higher level of immortals, he discovered some slight changes within his body.

He originally possessed three spiritual roots, among which the fire spiritual root became the acquired fire elemental spiritual root due to his cultivation of the Fire Dragon Returning to Origin Scripture and a fortuitous encounter.

Compared to a true Heavenly Fire Spiritual Root, the difference is only slight and can be ignored.

However, once the connection with the Fire God is established and the seed of the god takes shape, this gap is completely bridged.

It has become a true Fire Elemental Spiritual Root!

Even in sensing the Great Dao of Fire, he is more outstanding than the Heavenly Spiritual Root.

However, this idea only lingered in his mind for a moment. Even with the map of ghosts and gods, it was completely random which deity he could sense.

Among the gods and immortals of the same rank, there were various righteous gods, dragon kings of the seas, and numerous star officials, densely packed together.

Who knows when I'll be able to meet my beloved deity again?

"Besides the bestowed power, there should also be side effects, otherwise how many people would be willing to take the route of invoking gods..."

Being able to sense the Fire God is already one in ten, but at most it is the strength of the Perfected Core Formation stage.

Aside from its advantage in cultivation speed compared to traditional methods, it is completely incomparable in other aspects.

Over the years, through constant interaction with different immortals and gods, Bai Zichen has come to understand some of the mysteries of transmitting power.

Then consider the ancient demon Asura, who became an incarnation of a demon god, possessing many divine abilities and almost becoming immortal.

Not only did it disregard the limitations imposed on the Nascent Soul stage by this world, it also broke through the lifespan limit, possessing a lifespan that even Nascent Soul cultivators envy.

If he hadn't been pulled into the river of time, his lifespan hadn't been forcibly erased, leaving not even a trace of his true spirit, there would have been a possibility of him being reborn thousands of years later.

After establishing a connection with this Fire God, Bai Zichen seemed to have reached his limit. For a full thirty years, he was unable to attract any immortals or gods to the Ghost and God Position Chart.

Just as I was about to put it aside for the time being and refocus my energy on swordsmanship, a deity statue lit up in the second tier of the Demon God Rank Chart.

It is none other than the Lord of the Purple Star in the Central Heaven!

The seed in the sea of ​​consciousness instantly burst forth with dazzling starlight. A deity stood up, creating an indescribable vortex that carried the sea of ​​consciousness into the deepest part of the universe.

Countless stars are born and grow from a single point, while countless stars expand and are destroyed, resembling a true sea of ​​stars.

As the starlight faded, Bai Zichen could sense that the power he could draw upon from the seed had reached the Nascent Soul level.

Furthermore, the two supernatural powers of "falling stars to the earth" and "transforming one's body into a star core" are naturally mastered without the need for cultivation.

"Lord of Ziwei Star..."

Bai Zichen's eyes were complicated. He had inherited the position of Ziwei Star Lord when he entered the Star Palace, and now he was a fellow immortal god.

Is this pure coincidence, or is it cause and effect, or destiny?
It's a pity that Shan Zhiyi is dead, otherwise he could have calculated whether there was a predestined connection between himself and the Ziwei Star Lord.

"This kind of cultivation speed is definitely not something that can be achieved simply by obtaining a divine summoning spell... It's also due to the Ghost and God Position Chart. This extraordinary treasure was awakened by the Xuanzhou Divine Summoning Chart Scroll and is now functioning!"

In today's world, after such a great change, to be able to cultivate the art of summoning spirits to this level means that it shouldn't have been a niche or unpopular path in ancient times.

In Xuanzhou, there's no reason why they should be beaten so badly by the demon race.

Bai Zichen dared not continue cultivating. He was still within his control at the moment, and who knew what changes might occur if he took another step forward.

If the Dao Ancestor Heavenly Venerable of the first tier were to directly transmit power at the Nascent Soul level, it might not necessarily be a fortunate thing.

Think of the ancient demon. After becoming an avatar of the Asura Demon God, his strength did increase significantly, but without his own will, he was no longer himself.

Bai Zichen didn't want to wake up one day to find himself transformed into the avatar of some powerful being from the upper realm.

This possibility is extremely small, but we cannot ignore it.

He threw the diagram of ghosts and gods into the lake, pressed his ten fingers lightly, and bound it with chains of time.

Then, the power of the grotto-heaven transformed into a bronze bell, firmly suppressing it.

At the same time, the seed in the sea of ​​consciousness was also stuffed into the furnace and strictly guarded.

"There are hidden dangers, but the rewards are equally immense. Apart from me, there should be few in the cultivation world who can resist the temptation to continue communicating with immortals and gods..."

Bai Zichen used the Candle Dragon Yin-Yang Eyes to examine himself, letting the true meaning of time wash over him, so as not to be unaware of the external forces he might be hiding.

Within a radius of ten thousand miles, the sword light arrived smoothly, omnipresent.

It seems that the Starry Sky True Meaning has made great progress since witnessing the real starry river, and many new ideas have been added to the Starry River Sword Formation in his mind.

"I have no time to spare. Let my disciples go to Xuanzhou and find out the ins and outs of the Divine Invocation Technique... This path is not as simple as it seems. Since Xuanzhou can still be used today, it must have left the most clues."

Bai Zichen wrote in mid-air, forming lines of luminous characters, and with a flick of his finger, a flying sword shot out.

The letter specifically mentioned Li Guizhen and Su Qingqing, and also attached two strands of divine thought to the sword, giving them extra protection after entering Xuanzhou.

He asked the two to collect all information related to the Summoning God Technique, preferably to bring back the most powerful human being, which would inevitably involve direct conflict with demonic beasts.

With two Nascent Soul cultivators present, they'll be safe as long as they don't actively seek out dangerous areas.

If we do the opposite, who knows?

"I wonder if that kid Song Ding has reached the Nascent Soul stage yet. If he wants to break through the chasm and step into the Nascent Soul stage, a few great demons won't be a problem."

Bai Zichen had confidence in his little apprentice's abilities.

Li Guizhen walks the path of utmost strength and courage, the Thunderous Path of Saving the Dead and Bringing Life to Life. He needs to undergo much training in order to reach a higher realm.

Su Qingqing, on the other hand, was the disciple with the Water Element Heavenly Spiritual Root that Qingfeng Sect had received many years ago.

Although he wasn't sent to Bai Zichen and Ge Cang for training, he had top-notch conditions in all aspects and smoothly cultivated to the point of perfect Core Formation.

She happened to be very lucky and caught Bai Zichen's eye. He summoned her to answer his questions and was very satisfied.

Aside from being less than satisfactory in magical combat, she was at the level of a super grandmaster saintess in all other aspects.

Bai Zichen directly bestowed the Nine-Bend Conch, originally prepared for Ma Ruoxi, inadvertently benefiting another disciple.

……

Nine years later, a fourth-tier low-grade Golden-Eyed Winged Tiger was killed in Xuanzhou, triggering a three-month beast tide.

This beast is a direct descendant of a peak fourth-tier demon king, which enraged it, causing it to personally lead its demon horde to attack human territory.

In the bloody back-and-forth battle, hundreds of thousands of demon beast corpses were left outside the formation, while more than a thousand cultivators inside the formation were injured, killed, or exhausted.

It should be noted that the cultivators who come to Xuanzhou are selected, and those with too low a strength will not appear at all.

Many disciples who were maintaining the formation fainted within the formation due to the intense exertion of guarding it day and night, which affected their very foundation.
