Chapter 517: Chapter 515: Three Phases (Supplement 46)_1
Fang Xi’s position as the chief of the Law Enforcement Hall was merely a nominal title, simply to legitimize his control of the "Heaven Star Array," an Origin Soul magical instrument.
Therefore, his daily work was very leisurely, and once he had roughly mastered the operation of this great array, he visited the Primordial Energy Research Institute again.
This time around, everything went smoothly, and everyone treated him with great respect as if he were a top figure.
Fang Xi did not hold back and immediately fulfilled his promise, taking out the Biyi Tube filled with "Sky Demon Qi," to the bright-eyed astonishment of Lu Shiming...
In the blink of an eye, another year had passed.
During this year, The Nine States’ Primordial Energy Research Institute had made significant breakthroughs, and Fang Xi had already reviewed the perfected Primordial Energy Particle Atlas.
Moved by an impulse, he took out the scroll of the "Biyi Universal Skills" secret technique and allowed the researchers of the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace to study it.
...
Fang Immortal Taoist Palace.
Standing on the solid ground, Fang Xi couldn’t help feeling a bit sentimental.
Compared to the self-contained world of the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace, his Mountain Sea Pearl was useless.
However, as his Divine Consciousness swept across the surrounding hundreds of miles, he found himself puzzled.
Although many Yellow Turban Strongmen and nanobots were maintaining operations, there were very few cultivators left in this small world.
The once populous inhabitants had all been relocated.
Even though they were all cultivators and had the help of cybertechnology, this was not an easy task!
With a flash of silver light, the figure of the Fang Immortal Taoist Master appeared.
"Taoist Master!"
Fang Xi bowed respectfully.
"Are you wondering why I relocated the people from the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace?"
The Fang Immortal Taoist Master asked with a smile.
"Could it be that the Taoist Master is preparing to break through to Perfect Transcendent God?" Fang Xi could only think of this reason.
Breaking through to Transcendent God would cause great disturbance and have considerable impact.
Perhaps the Fang Immortal Taoist Master was concerned about harming the innocent and thus relocated the people.
"Not at all!"
The Fang Immortal Taoist Master smiled slightly, "Ever since obtaining the Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy Atlas and your ’Biyi Universal Skills,’ I have been diligently researching them and combining them with the institute’s highest technology. Recently, I have finally integrated both and developed a secret technique named—’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’!"
As he spoke, the spiritual energy around him instantly dissipated, replaced by extremely pure Demon Qi, seemingly transforming him into a Nascent Soul complete demon lord in the blink of an eye.
And in an instant, scales and feathers grew on the demon lord’s body, and a surge of Demon Qi shot up to the sky, surprisingly transforming into Monster Clan skills!
No matter how you looked at it, the Fang Immortal Taoist Master at that moment was a top-tier fourth-grade Monster cultivator!
"This secret technique of the Taoist Master..."
Fang Xi was somewhat stunned to witness this scene.
After all, the ’Biyi Universal Skills’ was mainly for the Monster Clan, but the Fang Immortal Taoist Master had clearly improved this technique, making it primarily for human cultivators, with the ability to freely transform between Demon Qi and Demon Qi.
’However, this person owns the ’Fang Immortal Taoist Palace,’ so there is no problem using it as the core of the secret technique...’ Fang Xi thought.
"This ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’ requires a Treasure of Void as a foundation, leveraging the natural law of freely transforming Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy to willingly convert one’s own cultivation into corresponding Monster Clan or Demon Clan skills..."
The Fang Immortal Taoist Master continued, "After practicing this secret technique, the True demon qi in The Nine States will not only stop being an obstacle to my ascension to Transcendent God, but will instead become a great aid... Therefore, I plan to ascend to Transcendent God in The Nine States!"
The more powerful the world, the easier it is to break through one’s limits.
Fang Xi speculated that there might be other benefits as well.
"But by doing this... the Moon Demon will probably go mad."
Fang Xi voiced his concerns.
If the Fang Immortal Taoist Master successfully becomes a Transcendent God, the Demon Clan will surely sense it, and what might happen afterwards is unpredictable.
"Therefore, as soon as I succeed in becoming a Transcendent God, I will immediately initiate the great battle!"
The Fang Immortal Taoist Master’s lips curved slightly, "The reason I relocated those cultivators is that I will need to fully utilize the Fang Immortal Taoist Palace, and can no longer take care of them..."
Fang Xi pursed his lips.
The Moon Demon is not a fool and won’t allow one Transcendent God after another to emerge in The Nine States. It’s possible that when the celestial phenomenon of the Fang Immortal Taoist Master’s ascension appears, they will start moving people, or even directly initiate the decisive battle.
Therefore, it seems reasonable to take advantage of the strength advantage for a quick battle and swift conclusion.
"Your contributions this time are truly immeasurable... This ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’ is of great significance for the counterattack on the Taiyin Star," said the Fang Immortal Taoist Master, "The Taiyin Star is filled with Demon Qi, which would normally affect even my Transcendent God cultivation, but now things will be different..."
After becoming a Transcendent God, the Fang Immortal Taoist Master could also use the ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’ to transform his entire cultivation into that of a Demon Clan Transcendent God!
At that time, amidst the dense Demon Qi of the Taiyin Star, he would be in his element.
"I’m glad to have been of help," said Fang Xi with a smile, somewhat skeptical that without his intervention, this Taoist Master, after ascending to Transcendent God, might just handle the Demon Clan on his own...
"This ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill,’ you can also study it thoroughly when you return. This secret technique is not just about changing magic power, but about breaking through to Transcendent God and even Returning to Emptiness!"
The Fang Immortal Taoist Master casually flicked a white light, and Tai Yi received a complete set of data.
"Returning to Emptiness after becoming a Transcendent God?"
Fang Xi slightly widened his eyes, showing a look of surprise.
"I’ve told you before that controlling the forces of all attributes as a Transcendent God is greatly beneficial for future cultivation... because, according to the institute’s speculation, the Returning to Emptiness realm that follows Transcendent God requires ’Unity of All Things’!"
Fang Immortal Taoist Master calmly said, "Most Transcendent God cultivators can only manipulate spiritual power of a single attribute, but upon reaching Returning to Emptiness, one must at least gather the Five Elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, or the troika of Wind, Thunder, and Ice... Otherwise, it’s difficult to breakthrough the bottleneck of Returning to Emptiness!"
"Isn’t that extremely disadvantageous for cultivators who only practice single-attribute cultivation skills?" Fang Xi sighed. He had read related descriptions in the ’Sky Demon Slaying Immortal Tactics’, but since his realm wasn’t high enough, he only half understood...
And his true self was practicing a single-attribute Wood cultivation skill!
"Single-attribute skills have the advantages of fast cultivation speed and easy bottleneck breakthroughs, which is undeniable. After becoming a Transcendent God, naturally there are more ways, such as cultivating a secondary skill with ’Wind, Thunder, Ice’ attributes, or practicing other Five Elements Skills, or even directly practicing body refining techniques. Once the body is strong enough to control the forces of all attributes, it will also be smooth to breakthrough..."
Fang Immortal Taoist Master instructed, "This ’Biyi Universal Skills’ Secret Skill from the Monster Clan is not only for concealing Demon Qi but also a secret art for breaking through Returning to Emptiness. It’s just that it’s somewhat broken... Based on my conjecture, after reaching perfect Transcendent God status, if one can find more pure and abundant ’Sky Demon Qi’ and ’True Demon Qi’ in the Earth Immortal Realm, combined with a cultivator’s own ’Immortal Origin Energy’, and with ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’ achieve ’Unity of the Three Energies’, returning to the origin for ’Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi’, the effect of breaking through the bottleneck should be better than ’Unity of All Things’... and after breaking through the Returning to Emptiness realm, whether human, monster, or demon, all will be directly manipulating Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy, with a range and power even stronger than controlling single-attribute spiritual power as a Transcendent God..."
Fang Xi nodded repeatedly as he listened, and in his heart, he also felt regret: ’Although a cultivator has all Five Elements inside them and can cultivate any attribute skill, the progress will undoubtedly be slower than those with the most advantageous Spiritual Roots. By then, one can only seek heaven-and-earth treasures that enhance the Spiritual Root... From this perspective, the ancestor of Mixed Origin Sect with a Five Elements Body truly had misfortune. He had the perfect material for breaking through ’Returning to Emptiness’... it’s just a pity that with the scarce resources in the Lower Realm, he couldn’t even get past the Transcendent God checkpoint...’
’However, this Fang Immortal Taoist Master’s deep kindness... coupled with this many instructions, feels slightly ominous, as if he was arranging his last affairs...’
...
Western Desert Cultivation World.
Inside the Mountain Sea Pearl Dongfu.
Fang Xi was sitting cross-legged.
Although he had already advanced to a great cultivator, he still didn’t plan on immediately going to The Nine States.
After all, that world is also very dangerous, and it’s fine to let the Heterodox Nascent Soul take charge.
In the previous period, the Heterodox Nascent Soul successfully broke through the mid-Nascent Soul stage and returned, also bringing the good news of the refinement of the Divine Infant Sword and mastery of the ’Heaven Star Array’, which greatly excited Fang Xi.
And all of this paled in comparison to ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’!
"This Secret Skill not only allows me to become a Transcendent God more easily in this world tainted by Sky Demon Qi... but even relates to the breakthrough of Returning to Emptiness in the future?"
"Even though it’s all theoretical, it’s still of great value."
Fang Xi’s eyes shone.
After acquiring this Cultivation Secret Skill from the Heterodox Nascent Soul, he had been contemplating it constantly, feeling more and more the profound depth of The Nine States world.
The originally broken Monster Clan Secret Skill, modified by him with the human race as the main aspect, could now be seamlessly transformed!
"Even if Fang Immortal Taoist Master, with Fang Immortal Taoist Palace as his foundation, cultivates the ’Triphasic Destroying Origin Skill’, I’m afraid the results won’t be as good as those with my ’Treasures of All Heavens’... "
By now, Fang Xi had fully contemplated the chant of this skill and couldn’t help but want to start cultivating it.
"The first step is to use the ’Treasure of Void’ to forge a virtual dantian, then refine the seed of Magic Power!"
Fang Xi’s hands were holding two Biyi Tubes.
Within these two tubes, one contained a portion of ’Sky Demon Qi’ he had captured, and the other portion was ’True Demon Qi’!
He had both of these origin energies tested in the Primordial Energy Research Institute, making sure there were no problems, and had taken a little of each, which was just right for refining into the seeds of Magic Power!
Fang Xi brought his hands together, and a dual-colored magic power of cyan and yellow emerged, enveloping the two Biyi Tubes.
Bang! Bang!
Accompanied by explosive sounds, a thread of dark green ’Sky Demon Qi’ and a thread of pitch-black ’True demon qi’ spilled out, each carrying a terrifying force. There were even signs that they might contaminate the surrounding spiritual energy.
Fang Xi, of course, would not stand idly by. He immediately expended a great amount of magic power to envelop and refine these two strands of primal forces...
Following the chanting of incantations, these two auras quickly condensed, merging with his original magic power to form a somewhat odd tri-colored seed.
This seed was highly unstable, seemingly ready to explode at any moment!
Fang Xi’s expression was solemn as he closed his eyes tightly, and the Heavenly Spirit above his head flashed, revealing his primary Nascent Soul.
The little face of the main Nascent Soul was grave as it raised the Treasures of All Heavens Mirror high.
Buzz! Buzz!
After advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, Fang Xi had deepened his sacrificial refining of this ’cheater’, capable now of summoning its true form.
At this moment, mysterious and indescribable colors flickered over the broken Bronze Mirror, with Phoenix Seal Script emerging continuously, densely packed to form a silver light screen that wrapped around the tri-colored magic power seed, suppressing it into the depths of the Treasures of All Heavens Mirror!
After completing this step, Fang Xi immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
’Indeed, as I expected, the Treasures of All Heavens Mirror can easily suppress this magic power seed... With this step accomplished, the most difficult part is over!’
Fang Xi’s Nascent Soul returned to its place, and he opened his eyes.
His expression shifted subtly as he formed a magic spell with his hands.
A thread of dark green Demon Qi emerged on his body, which in an instant, transformed into a thread of Demon Qi...
But in the end, it changed back into the energy of the Kuyong Skills...
"Indeed, the triphasic cycle, unobstructed and flowing freely!"
Fang Xi’s lips curled up slightly, "With this... whether it’s the ’Sky Demon Slaying Immortal Tactics’ or the ’Supreme Heavenly Sovereign’s True Demon Art of Controlling All Spirits’ cultivation techniques or secret skills, I can now study them..."
He had long coveted several secret skills within the Monster Clan cultivation arts.
The same was true for the Demon Clan’s arts.
For instance, the Soul Searching Skill which targeted the Nascent Soul – once mastered, given his current Divine Consciousness strength, forcibly searching the soul of a mid-stage Nascent Soul posed no difficulty.
After all, he was cultivating a Divine Consciousness cultivation method, ’Seven Emotions and Sorrows Script’, which far surpassed the usual late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators!
"Could it even be that if I hit a bottleneck in my main cultivation method in the future, I might still make a breakthrough by drawing parallels from other areas?"
Fang Xi stroked his chin as an idea came to him.
The ’Sky Demon Slaying Immortal Tactics’ he possessed could be cultivated all the way to the Returning to Emptiness realm, and even the ’Self-transforming Demon Skills’ had the level of a Perfect Transcendent God!
