#612 - Origin and Refining
Grasping the gray man firmly with one hand, Wang Zhifan then used his insight ability to explore this guy's memory.
In an instant, under the pressure of his terrifyingly high mental power, the secret in his hand was quickly revealed to him, allowing him to know the identity and origin of this guy.
It turns out that this little gray man was once a human being, but he was not from the Dark Cloud Realm, nor from the world of Fengxue Tower, but from a very distant outer world where immortals’ heritage existed.
He spent most of the first six hundred years of his life practicing.
At first, he was just an ordinary child in a mountain village. He was spotted by a passing immortal master and brought into the mountain gate to start his journey of cultivation. Later, he gradually revealed his extraordinary talent for cultivation and was trained by the sect. Within a hundred years, he became the top existence below the immortals.
For hundreds of years afterwards, he tried hard to obtain the immortal inheritance, but the top inheritance was so precious that he could not find a way no matter how hard he tried. Finally, he made up his mind to sell his sect to a declining sect in exchange for the other party's immortal inheritance, which is the "Secret Book of Immortality" in Wang Zhifan's hand now.
After obtaining the truly top-level immortal inheritance, this person continued to devote himself to cultivation. He spent four hundred years going through all kinds of hardships and finally achieved the so-called immortal fruit, becoming one of the top existences in his world.
But at this time he also discovered a serious problem, that is, the "Secret Book of the Immortal Path" in his hand was actually incomplete. Although he had become an immortal in everyone's concept, he was only at the threshold level. The immortal path that should have been extremely vast had no follow-up, and he could no longer continue to move forward step by step.
This reality made him, who was extremely talented and eager to reach the top, very angry. In order to find the sequel to the martial arts method, he killed all the sects that provided the "Secret Book of the Immortal Path", but it turned out that others really did not hide it, and there was no second part at all.
Later, he went to communicate with other major sects, hoping to obtain their top inheritances. However, he learned that the inheritances conflicted with each other, and after practicing one, he could not practice the others. Even if he could change his practice, it would be useless because the immortals in other major sects were not much stronger than him, and their inheritances also did not indicate the subsequent path.
In this way, this man, feeling that his future was blocked, became confused. He indulged in pleasure for hundreds of years and decided to accept the cold reality.
But a hundred years later he was tired of all kinds of enjoyment, and only the mysterious way of immortality obsessed him, and he could not really give it up.
So he decided to figure out a completely new path on his own, intending to complete the "Secret Book of the Immortal Path" on his own.
However, this kind of thing is undoubtedly extremely difficult. After five hundred years of painstaking study, he still has not made any substantial progress and still remains at the original level of immortality.
However, just when he was about to fall into despair, a strange time and space vortex appeared in his world. This vortex vaguely led to an unknown outside world. No one who entered it had ever come out again, which attracted the close attention and intensive research of the strong people in this world.
As immortals who had mastered powerful laws, they quickly studied this space-time vortex and realized that it indeed led to an unknown world. However, because the turbulence of the space-time laws in the vortex was too violent, even for beings like them, there would be considerable risks if they entered, and there was a high probability that they would not be able to return.
After comprehensive consideration, four immortals including this person joined forces to enter with the pursuit of the future path. Then they endured the extremely terrifying pressure of the laws in the vortex of time and space, and soon they were separated, and no one knew where they went.
As a result, the other party did not appreciate it at all. Not only did he continue to chase him, he also called on his friends to find a powerful helper of similar level, which soon put this person into a desperate situation.
In the end, he was beaten to the point of physical collapse and used various secret techniques to escape. He hurriedly rushed into the time and space vortex of the new world, trying to return to his original world to hide and heal his wounds.
But it was obviously wishful thinking, and he soon got lost in the turbulence of time and space and almost fell into the endless void. Fortunately, he was lucky and found a weak area of time and space at the critical moment of life and death, and drilled into it, which led to his arrival at the current Dark Cloud Realm.
The Dark Cloud Realm is not suitable for practicing the immortal way, and it does not have much value to this person. However, he is already in a very weak state at this moment. He is lucky enough to be able to survive in the state of his primordial spirit. It is impossible for him to do anything else.
There were even remnants of attack power from powerful beings in the previous world in his soul, forcing him to distract himself from resisting and spend time to dissipate and remove them bit by bit. These powers were the reason why his soul appeared a strange gray color.
In short, this immortal was extremely miserable except that he was not dead. He could no longer move freely and could only concentrate his strength to repair his soul bit by bit, lying dormant in the depths of the Dark Cloud Realm.
Later, as time passed, his condition improved a little, and he had the energy to do some simple exploration of the outside world. Then, he naturally discovered the creatures of the Dark Cloud Realm, and learned that there were humans in this world as well, and they came from the neighboring world.
The arrival of a human being was undoubtedly good news. After all, this person's body had been destroyed and only a weak soul remained. For him, if a suitable human body appeared nearby, it would be the best target for possession, which would greatly speed up his recovery.
It is not easy to find a suitable body. If he just takes over a random human, the other party's weak body will be completely unable to bear the immortal-level spirit and power. Forcing it will only waste his precious energy.
Therefore, he, who had high aspirations, came up with the idea of building a fairy palace to attract humans from neighboring worlds. That is, he used the various magic weapons he already had to build traps and select the most suitable body to take over.
This plan may seem like a waste of time, but it is actually very important to him. Once he finds an excellent body that meets all the requirements and successfully takes over its body, he can achieve a comeback and even become even stronger.
This is the time when Wang Zhifan came over. It is obvious that he is the best target for possession step by step selected by the palace built by this tragic immortal. It is because he meets all the requirements that the white jade light gate suddenly appears above his head.
As for the fact that the light gate suddenly ran away after he approached it, it was under the control of the immortal's soul himself. The reason was that he felt that Wang Zhifan's strength seemed a little beyond the standard, and he was not sure he could swallow it completely.
Later, when Wang Zhifan came up and entered the white jade light gate to get the jade slip, the same situation occurred. The weak immortal in the soul state found that Wang Zhifan was very dangerous and it was very risky to directly take over his body. The safest choice was to stay away from him as soon as possible. He decided to lie dormant in the jade slip and wait for the opportunity.
However, he could not have imagined that Wang Zhifan had the Ring of Destiny, a heaven-defying item. He had long known that this old shady and pathetic complex was in the jade slip, and finally took him down.
After understanding the general origin of the little man in his hand, Wang Zhifan faced a choice: how to deal with this guy.
Logically speaking, this poor creature was no different from the boy who brought him treasures, and posed no real threat to him, so there was no need for him to kill him.
But reason is not the only criterion for doing things, and interests often take precedence.
Therefore, Wang Zhifan quickly mobilized the power of the Ring of Destiny to seek ways to maximize his benefits.
In each line of fate, he saw the different consequences of his various treatments of the villains in his hands. Some villains were released directly by him, some villains cooperated with him, and some villains were made into props by him. All of them had favorable or bad results for him, but overall the benefits were not very great.
It was not until a while later that he discovered a more special destiny line. His eyes suddenly lit up and he used up his mental energy to determine this route.
“Refine!”
At this moment, Wang Zhifan tightly grasped the right hand of the gray man and burst out with terrifying power of law, concentrating almost all his strength here. In an instant, the unlucky guy in his hand was peeled off layer by layer, and without even a scream, it turned into a rather chaotic ball of energy light.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Separation!"
Following the second step, Wang Zhifan mobilized his strength to subdivide the chaotic energy in his hand, turning the originally complex energy ball into more than ten parts, which contained the spiritual will of the original owner, pure immortal power, law energy, and external attack energy that the original owner had not consumed completely. Each part was very pure.
"absorb!"
Finally, Wang Zhifan selectively absorbed the separated power, mainly integrating the pure power of the laws of time and space, and a little immortal energy. Overall, he only absorbed about 5% of all refined energy.
Don't ever think that he absorbed too little. In fact, in terms of the gold content of an immortal's soul, even if it is an injured and weak soul, the overall energy intensity is very huge. Taking only a small part is equivalent to the result of his decades of hard practice.
What's more, absorbing more is not necessarily a good thing. External forces naturally carry hidden dangers. Wang Zhifan chose to do this only after confirming the result through the Ring of Destiny, otherwise he would not have been able to refine this immortal spirit.
After going through a rigorous process and absorbing some of the safe and useful power into his body, Wang Zhifan decisively classified and packaged the remaining energy and stored it in the Bagua Mirror.
At the moment of completion, he felt his body swelling a little, and the premonition of a breakthrough appeared frequently, so he simply sat in meditation on the spot and began to practice.
After practicing for a while, he opened the Ring of Destiny again to observe, and unexpectedly found that if he continued to practice, his skills would indeed improve a lot, but he would not break through the realm quickly.
"I still need to practice here for another eight years before I can break through? Why?"
For a moment, Wang Zhifan was stunned by the result. He thought that after absorbing a large wave of opportunities, he would be able to reach the next level if he persisted for a month or so, if not break through on the same day. However, the result was far from that simple.
"This opportunity only brought me a quantitative improvement, but no significant qualitative change. I also did not gain any new insights into cultivation, so I was unable to make a quick breakthrough. I only shortened the time by more than half. No, if I were in the Land of Iris, the cultivation time would definitely be much shorter."
After thinking about it, Wang Zhifan felt that it would be best for him to return to Gaia Star as soon as possible to confirm it.
So in the following time, he moved quickly to search the immortal ruins that had lost their owner, found some key magic weapons according to his memory of the exploration, and put them in his pocket. Then he left the Dark Cloud Realm directly and crossed the gap between the worlds to Gaia Star.
During the process, relying on the characteristics of the technique he practiced, he found the space-time vortex through which the immortal escaped from the endless void into the Dark Cloud Realm. This special structure was actually a kind of space-time turbulence. In the past, he would avoid it when he saw it between worlds, because it was more violent than ordinary turbulence. But this time, he couldn't help but take a few more glances and had some thoughts in his mind.
"Since that unlucky immortal entered the Dark Cloud Realm from this turbulent flow, it proves that through it, he can reach the world where the strong man who injured him exists, as well as the immortal's original world. When I have time, I can go over and take a look. The All-Time-Space Eternal Freedom Mystical Chapter that I practiced is professional in crossing worlds, and I will definitely not end up as embarrassed as he did."
Wang Zhifan must be interested in the new world, not only out of curiosity, but also for the need of his practice. Only by exploring more different worlds can he continue to approach the road of "eternal freedom in all time and space".
After spending some time, Wang Zhifan successfully arrived at the Iris Field on Gaia Star, and then began to observe the destiny line of his cultivation.
Just as he had speculated, in this place with mythical blessings, the time required for his cultivation and breakthrough would be further shortened, from about eight years before to just over two years. This was indeed a very embarrassing result for him.
“The last time I came here, my destiny line showed that I would have to practice for at least twenty years before I could break through. Now, that time has been shortened to two years… But do I really have to meditate here for two years straight?
I always feel that this time is still too long. Who knows if I can find some good opportunities somewhere and break through immediately. "
The harvest after going out once was a great success, which had a great impact on Wang Zhifan. He was already somewhat resistant to the practice of seclusion and hard work, and had formed a certain path dependence on looking for opportunities. (End of this chapter)
