The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 569 Primordial Spirit Heavenly Lamp
Su Rong and Lin Ran left, leaving only Wang Wu and Jiang Dongting in the cultivation hall.

The latter paced back and forth for a moment before looking at Wang Wu and smiling, "I never expected to meet someone as pure as you at the half-step Great Luo level. Shuang Hongye was willing to give up her life for you, even if it meant her soul would fall into the outside world. And judging from your appearance, you clearly intend to go and find her, right?"

"If it were seven years from now, and you weren't leading the expedition with me, I probably would have just sighed a few times and ignored it. But now, since the expedition is important, I have to talk to you in detail. I hope you can understand what I mean."

"I understand, please rest assured, senior brother. I will do my best in this expedition. Even if I go to find the Red Leaf Divine Soul in the future, I will definitely handle everything properly before I go. I will never leave any future troubles for the Xuan Tian Sect because of me."

Wang Wu said solemnly.

"Excellent!" Jiang Dongting clapped his hands and laughed. "So this makes me think even more highly of you. It's not that I admire or praise you, but we feel very reassured by your character. Here's what we'll do: I can guarantee that even if you disappear without a trace in the future, I can preserve this cultivation palace for 500,000 years. And if Fellow Daoist Shuang Hongye is unable to wake up, I will incinerate her immortal body after 500,000 years and build a cenotaph with you, which will be preserved in the Supreme Tomb of the Xuantian Sect."

"Thank you for the arrangements, Senior Brother!"

Wang Wu quickly expressed his gratitude. Although he knew that this was a promise made by Jiang Dongting to put his mind at ease during the expedition, it was truly a very good thing.

Just in case.

Moreover, promises made at this level are still quite trustworthy.

"However, if we can contact Fellow Daoist Shuang Qingxue at that time, we can entrust this matter to her and let her handle it."

“That’s fine too.” Jiang Dongting nodded; these things were nothing to worry about.

At this point, Wang Wu stopped discussing the matter and solemnly asked, "Senior brother, is there anything else I should be aware of regarding this expedition?"

"Hehe, actually there's not much to note. That Dao Fire Realm is quite interesting because it's very powerful. It can form its own ecosystem that changes constantly, like spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Every time the ecosystem changes, it harvests most of the creatures. So, in reality, this means that the creatures of that world are always controlled by the world and are forever bound by an inescapable fate. They can't achieve immortality, although they can live for a long time... but living like rats in the street, cowering and trembling, is meaningless."

"In contrast, our great cultivation world is very weak because the strong ones are the Great Luo Immortals. However, none of us have yet transcended the highest level, so we cannot judge which world is more powerful. This is actually a very boring question because the two worlds will never have the opportunity to intersect. Even if we launch expeditions against each other, it will not affect anything."

"In short, always remember that our expedition is for plunder; observation is secondary, and intervention is suicidal. We must complete the plunder and withdraw before the world's ecosystem can react, which will mean a series of fierce battles..."

"So, don't waste any more time. Hurry up and make up for your weaknesses. Otherwise, in the Dao Fire Realm, your fragile soul will easily be pierced by the opponent's Primordial Spirit Lamp and leave your body."

"Thank you, senior brother, for your advice."

After seeing Jiang Dongting off, Wang Wu calmed his mind and first took a Cultivation Immortal Pill. This pill had no effect when used on Shuang Jun before, but after he took it himself, it really worked wonders.

In an instant, the divine thoughts within his soul seemed to explode, directly leaping to 100,000 strands. It was too exaggerated, too domineering, and too miraculous.

However, this number of divine thoughts is the average value of outstanding beings in this world.

For example, Shuangjun, even after separating from Qingxue, still possessed 100,000 strands of her divine consciousness.

Take Lu Wuchen for example. As one of the most outstanding prophets of the Imperial Observatory, his constant divine sense can reach three million strands. In contrast, Wang Wu, even after advancing to the Lesser Steps Great Luo realm, only had tens of thousands of strands. This is pathological, an innate deficiency, and a consequence of being a transmigrator.

He thought he was very strong, but that's because he hadn't hit a ceiling yet.

A single self-destruction by Tian Shu, or an encounter with Yin Yuan Shen Jun, or a heartless Qing Xue, could cause his soul to leave his body, leaving him extremely vulnerable.

Without hesitation, Wang Wu took a second Immortal Cultivation Pill, increasing his total number of divine senses to 150,000 strands. This was his limit; any more and his divine senses would go out of control. After all, he was not a prophet of the Imperial Observatory, nor could he compare to an existence like Lu Wuchen.

However, if his ambitions did not lie in being a prophet of the Imperial Observatory, then this was enough.

He quickly circulated and comprehended the Primordial Spirit Illumination Heavenly Lamp Technique in his mind, gathering all his divine thoughts together, and finally, it evolved into a Primordial Spirit Heavenly Lamp. This is the core essence of this cultivation technique.

It wasn't too difficult, and there was absolutely no chance of making a mistake. Wang Wu even completed the entire cultivation process in just three days and successfully cultivated a Primordial Spirit Lamp.

However, he immediately realized a huge flaw: the only path he cultivated had no place for spiritual cultivation.

Whether it's the twenty-four solar terms, the nine extinctions that bring calamity, the five elements transforming into spirit, the three calamities, the five calamities, or the two energies of yin and yang, the One Great Dao has not left a place for the soul.

The divine soul is like a byproduct. The specific quantity and quality depend entirely on innate talent; for example, the astronomical prophets and high priests are one in a billion.

Therefore, although Wang Wu has easily cultivated a Primordial Spirit Lamp at this moment, it basically means that it will be very difficult for him to cultivate a second one in the future.

"However, that should be enough."

Wang Wu carefully experienced it, then waved his hand to take out the primordial spirit armor that Lin Ran had given him, and began to refine it together with the primordial spirit lamp. The process was also very simple, and it was successfully refined in a flash, with almost no bottlenecks or difficulties.

Wang Wu guessed that it might be because his Immortal Body of Creation was too powerful, and the three Foundation Establishment Formations provided too much leeway.

He even felt that his Primordial Spirit Lamp could continue to refine 99 more Primordial Spirit Immortal Artifacts.

Yes, it's unlikely that he could cultivate a second Primordial Spirit Lamp, but because of his excessively powerful immortal body, he could do it this way.

"If they were cultivators from the Dao Fire Realm, they would probably cultivate the Primordial Spirit Heavenly Lamp very easily, and might even be able to cultivate ten or twenty lamps in one go. However, if they wanted to fuse and refine the Primordial Spirit Immortal Artifact within the Primordial Spirit Heavenly Lamp, they would most likely only be able to fuse one, because they would most likely find it difficult to cultivate the Creation Immortal Body... No, it's not that they can't cultivate the Creation Immortal Body, but rather that they can't deploy the Foundation Establishment Formation."

Wang Wu can even deduce some situations in reverse, which isn't exactly amazing.

It's obvious. The ecosystem of a world can constantly circulate, and each evolution can wipe out a wave of life. This must be because the physical body is not strong enough to complete a complete internal cycle. Otherwise, how could it be wiped out so easily?

At this moment, Wang Wu sensed his divine soul and divine thoughts again, and the total number of divine thoughts successfully broke through to 200,000 strands, making the connection with the Creation Immortal Body at least five times stronger than before.

Like a tree taking root, it's already very difficult to shake his soul out directly.

However, it's still not entirely safe; he needs to refine more primordial spirit artifacts into it.

All of this requires an expedition to the Dao Fire Realm to plunder.

After reserving the last Immortal Cultivation Pill for unforeseen circumstances, Wang Wu began a final inspection of his cultivation progress.

The first, second, and third sequences have all remained at their peak.

However, upgrading the Five Elements Puppy Formation and the Five Elements Bird Formation to the fifth tier is quite difficult, and it cannot be done in a short time.

However, it should actually be enough.

The evolution of the three calamities is basically masterful, and with the assistance of the calamity of bitter cold, even if one is not defeated, self-preservation is definitely not a problem.

In particular, he also has the largest covenant warehouse in Dan.

Currently, it can maintain a reserve of 800 billion points of spiritual energy. Note that this is the storage limit of the Creation Immortal Body itself.

Rather than carrying it as an extra item.

"So now, let's start with ten thousand supreme hairs!"

Wang Wu smiled slightly and began to pluck out his hairs one by one. After plucking three hundred hairs, he needed to recover for a period of time. In any case, he had deeply understood the true meaning of becoming bald and becoming stronger.

It took him a full six years to accumulate ten thousand supreme hairs in one go. This was his biggest trump card for this expedition, without exception, because sometimes, quantity can really overshadow quality.

Then, he received a signal from Jiang Dongting, bid farewell to the still-sleeping Shuangjun, the four clowns, and his mother-in-law, and stepped out of the cultivation hall to meet up with Jiang Dongting.

The expedition team has now assembled, consisting of twenty-four people, fifteen of whom are at the half-step Great Luo level, and the rest are all at the ninth level of the Taiyi realm, but all are prophets from the Imperial Observatory.

Lu Wuchen was among them.
