Chapter 4 Astounding Talent Activated
Members of the Beast Clan can form an equal primordial contract with spirit beasts, cultivating both their physical and spiritual bodies, and gaining a combat power boost that is far greater than the sum of its parts.
The cultivation stages of the physical body are: Foundation Building, True Strength, True Qi, True Intent, Sainthood, and True Immortal.
The cultivation stages of the spiritual path are: perception, transcendence, spiritual insight, divine will, entry into the Dao, and true godhood.
If a cultivator can achieve the perfect state of True Immortal and True God, they will have the opportunity to merge the two and thus reach the Primordial Chaos Realm.
Only true immortals or true gods can enter the spirit world in their true form to explore.
Only those who attain sainthood or enlightenment can explore the spirit world with their souls, but they cannot substantially influence the spirit world.
The spirit world is full of all sorts of dangers, such as the spiritual entities formed after the death of previous explorers, the spiritual entities left behind after the explorers' ascension, all kinds of strange energies, spatial storms, and so on.
Those spiritual entities are referred to as gods or demons by some human cultivators.
This spatial cabin was built by "Yuan," a true god ancestor of the Beast Clan, for the purpose of core inheritance.
Therefore, the original owner must be a direct descendant of the You Shou clan.
As for why the original soul was fine even after being replaced, Dong Guanfei didn't know the reason, but he guessed it was because of the system's power.
The egg-shaped object on the floor is the egg of the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast that "Yuan" found in the Spirit Realm.
A portion of the psionic energy emitted by the egg was drawn to help maintain the operation of this spatial cabin.
Each inheritor can try to sense the Vermilion Bird Egg. As long as they gain the Vermilion Bird's approval and establish an equal origin contract, the Vermilion Bird Egg will quickly hatch and accompany the contractor to the real world.
The faceless mask is a divine artifact called "Ruyi," which is essentially on the same level as human "true immortals" and "true gods," so it can exist in the space cabin.
Similarly, each inheritor can sense the "Ruyi" and, after gaining its approval, can integrate it into their body and take it out of the space cabin.
The two books contain a wealth of information, most of which Dong Guanfei will need to gradually come to understand. His immediate priority is to use the abundant spiritual energy here to learn the Beast Clan's secret techniques.
He pondered for a moment, then focused his attention on the Vermilion Bird egg.
【illustrate:
1. You can establish an equal origin contract with Suzaku using 1600 universal points;
2. Improving your base physique will correspondingly reduce the number of general points required.
1600 general points is a bit too many, but it's not hopeless.
very good!
"I need to improve my physical constitution."
"I'm getting my hands on the Vermilion Bird's egg too."
Next is "Ruyi" (如意) –
【illustrate:
1. Using 100 universal points can initially integrate "Ruyi" (a traditional Chinese symbol of good fortune);
2. After mastering the Beast Clan's Secret Technique, using 10 universal points allows for the initial integration of "Ruyi".
It only costs 10 universal points?
Dong Guanfei was overjoyed, feeling as if he had won the jackpot in the lottery.
Some Beast Clan secret methods claim to cultivate both the body and spirit simultaneously, but direct disciples generally begin by learning the spiritual secret methods first, and then use spiritual energy to cultivate the physical secret methods.
Dong Guanfei immediately followed the instructions recorded in the secret method, cleared his mind, and carefully sensed the sensation.
Almost instantly, he noticed countless tiny, multicolored points of light in the cabin.
The lights twinkled like tiny fireflies.
The Vermilion Bird is a fire-elemental divine beast, so Dong Guanfei focused his mind on a red dot of light in front of him, carefully sensing the point in his sea of souls where it resonated most closely.
Several minutes had passed, but Dong Guanfei still hadn't gotten anything.
The secret method mentions that those with exceptional talent can achieve it in an instant.
His bone density is only 60, so this is reasonable.
Thus, his extraordinary talent was activated—Universal Points -1, -1, -1!
next moment.
I sensed it!
In the depths of his soul, a faint pulse began to stir, its frequency gradually aligning with that of the red light.
A warm feeling emanated from this spiritual point, a comforting warmth that felt wonderful.
The state of "sensory perception" has been achieved.
Next, he will use this soul node as the core and visualize the Vermilion Bird's divine intent in the secret technique in order to find the other eight soul nodes.
The moment the nine soul nodes resonate, the first spiritual node is formed. The resonance intensity is sufficient to absorb the fire spirit energy light into the body, beginning to cleanse and wash away the impurities of the body, thus entering the "transformation" realm.
Next, he will use this spiritual node as the core to visualize the Vermilion Bird God's intention again, thereby finding a new soul node, and then using it as the core to find and form a second spiritual node.
After finding the nine spiritual nodes and making them resonate, he entered the "spiritual" realm, which allows him to draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on a large scale and unleash powerful fire magic.
In fact, other cultivators still face many difficulties at this time, such as stabilizing their soul nodes.
This often takes ten to twenty times longer than the sensing time.
However, the data panel's features allow Dong Guanfei to obtain a permanent certificate, completely eliminating that kind of trouble.
The Vermilion Bird divine beast can greatly improve his cultivation efficiency and enhance his spellcasting ability.
Furthermore, there are many mystical events associated with making a pact with the Vermilion Bird, so the sooner the Vermilion Bird is hatched, the better.
In any case, he must do it when he enters the "Divine Will" realm, because at that time the Vermilion Bird will allow his combat power to leap by at least one major level.
It can be said that when members of the Beast Clan have spirit beasts or divine beast companions, they are completely different people from before.
The moment he entered the "sensing" realm, Dong Guanfei sensed his body in the real world and an area of about five meters in radius.
At this moment, he essentially has two perspectives.
Immediately afterwards, he focused his consciousness on the "Ruyi" mask and silently recited: Merge with "Ruyi".
In an instant, a white light seemed to flash across the void.
The "Ruyi" suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, then soared into the air and, in a flash, firmly stuck to Dong Guanfei's face.
In an instant, a variety of images flashed through his mind.
When these images cease, the system's explanatory text begins to appear.
Through all of this, Dong Guanfei quickly mastered the use of the "Ruyi".
Currently, he can only use the most basic ability of "Ruyi"—shape transformation—with his own magical power, which is still at a rudimentary level.
The basic transformation ability allows him to adjust his voice, hair color, eye color, skin color, face shape, and body shape, and he can also fake the aura of those below the "Transcendent" or "True Strength" level.
Because of the magical properties of the "Ruyi", under normal circumstances, cultivators below the level of "Saint" or "Taoist" cannot see through its transformations.
Inducing and maintaining the deformation requires a continuous consumption of Dong Guanfei's magical power or strength.
When he uses universal points, in addition to greatly adjusting his face and body shape, he can also adjust his gender and even transform into a humanoid being.
In addition, using universal points can also activate two other abilities of "Ruyi":
1. Activate an energy shield. At least 5 universal points are used to activate the shield, which reaches the peak level of "Transcendent" or "True Strength" and can only be maintained for 0.1 to 1 second; at most 5 universal points are used to activate the shield, which can reach the peak level of "True Immortal" or "True God" and can only be maintained for 0.1 to 1 second.
2. To unleash a beam of dissociative divine light, a minimum of 10 universal points are required. The unleashed divine light will reach the peak level of "Transcendent" or "True Strength". A maximum of 10 universal points can be used, and the divine light can reach the peak level of "True Immortal" or "True God".
The domineering nature of the general approach is beginning to emerge: ignoring all usage requirements.
Therefore, broadly speaking, Dong Guanfei possessing the "Ruyi" is equivalent to possessing the combat power at the peak level of a "True Immortal" or "True God".
The problem is that, let alone 5 or 10 universal points, he can hardly even gather 100.
Moreover, doing it this way is putting the cart before the horse.
In fact, what he should improve most is his physical constitution and cultivation level, so that he can use "Ruyi" with his own strength.
Because the range of points that can be added using general points is so wide, this greatly tests Dong Guanfei's wisdom in allocating points.
10 universal points could allow him to quickly reach the realm of "entering sainthood" or "entering the Tao," or even higher.
In any case, "Ruyi" is the most useful three-in-one item, combining a mask, shield, and divine gun, which greatly increases his sense of security.
For example, he only needs to collect 10 universal points to resolve the imminent crisis of being hunted by evil spirits.
It should be noted that the original owner was just an ordinary young man, and it was highly unlikely that the person behind him would use methods at the level of "True Qi" or "Spiritual Energy" to smash a mosquito with a sledgehammer.
If he had 15 universal points, he would be even more secure—he could activate an energy shield at any time.
However, there is only one general point left.
What should I do?
Go back to find Anna?
