When he awoke, Feng Lin discovered that it was unknown when he had floated up in the sky.
Spiritual qi formed a vortex, resembling a tornado that lifted him into the air.
A concentrated aura was emitted from him, causing ripples to form in the atmosphere.
He glanced at the time and discovered that for this bout of cultivation, he had unknowingly entered seclusion for about a month. He hadn’t sensed any changes to his body at all.
For this point, it was completely different when compared to mythological gene cultivation which emphasized strengthening the mythological genes in one’s body.
For ancient cultivators, they cultivated the cycles of energy within their bodies, matching it with the cycles of heavens and earth. They were able to breathe in the formless spiritual qi to replenish their energy consumption and enter a type of state where they could abstain from food.
When abandoning the need for food and losing the desire to eat, it was easier for humans to ignore the flow of time. They were ignorant of the flow of time.
During the month’s seclusion, Feng Lin immersed himself completely in his cultivation. With Sun Wukong’s cultivation experience, his cultivation of the Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art was extremely smooth. He directly entered the late-phase of transforming energy into qi. Right now, the amount of true origin energy he had could be considered quite a lot as well.
Feng Lin detailedly sensed the difference between true origin energy and genetic force.
Compared to genetic force that came in a multitude of forms and attributes, true origin energy had no additional properties. It was simply something formed from the combination of vitality force and spiritual qi.
Hence, true origin energy by itself wasn’t considered extremely powerful.
If one wanted the true origin energy to fully unleash its might, they had to use methods such as magical spells.
Through spells, curses, hand seals, and runes, one could use true origin energy to drive them and cause the nature of the energy to change. From there on, the user could control wind, water, thunder and the other types of heavenly might.
As for genetic force, it was considered an innate transcendent force. Once a user awakened it, they usually had control over the particular genetic force by instinct.
The differences between true origin energy and genetic force were similar to the mythologies and legends in western mythology, between warlocks and wizards.
One depended on his innate talent to excavate the deepest level of his life energy. The other independently analyzed the true nature and mysteries of the universe, deriving ways to transform himself.
One was an awakening, the other was learning.
There was no good or bad between the two. They were simply two different paths.
The ancient cultivation path was a process where one had to learn continuously and temper oneself constantly.
Currently, Feng Lin could be considered to have some minor accomplishments in his cultivation of the Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art. He managed to amass some true origin energy but if he wanted to use it and unleash its true potential, he still needed to learn magical spells.
A portion of the Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art was about the supreme magical spells. Other than the ancient cultivation method, it also included complimentary magical spells along with it.
Feng Lin closed his eyes and meditated. The information of all the magical spells flashed through his mind. Curses, spells, hand seals, true origin energy circulation technique…he memorized all of them.
At the next instant, he abruptly opened his eyes. A red light flashed in his eyes resembling the burning of flames.
Nine Fire Spell!
“The sun of Heaven and Earth transforms into true fire. The burning flames nurture the dragon. Obey my orders!…”
His hands performed an intricate set of movements resembling butterflies weaving through the flowers as he chanted words that radiated an ancient air. The spiritual qi in the surroundings instantly gushed over in torrents.
With a flick of his finger, the strands of spiritual qi weaved around, gradually forming the shape of a sphere and becoming corporeal.
Within it, seeds of fire could be seen flickering; they were like living objects.
Ang, ang, ang!
The roars of dragons could be heard within.
Feng Lin frenziedly channeled true origin energy into it. At the next instant, the seeds of fire that resembled a sphere exploded, and a total of nine fire dragons shot out from within. They had deer antlers, dragon beard, scales, the bodies resembling snakes…all the details of their form was extremely clear, like they were true creatures.
The moment the fire dragons appeared, they began to let out cries of joy and fly in circles in the air.
Feng Lin’s heart stirred. He only felt his mind being linked with the nine dragons by an invisible chain. He could control them as he desired.
Revolve, gather, disperse…
Formless surge of intents flowed from him. The nine fire dragons listened to his orders and followed his commands. They formed a ring of fire that revolved above him endlessly. Their fire could incinerate everything. In the form of a ring of fire, the power of each dragon was linked as well, becoming a huge fire dragon millstone that could be used to slaughter his enemies. They could also be used to entrap an enemy.
The original forms of this spell were the nine dragons that also had the ability to transform. Their might wasn’t weak at all.
His control of them wasn’t that smooth in the beginning, but at the end of the day, the movements of the fire dragons grew increasingly nimble. Feng Lin added speed to his hand gestures and became much more proficient in controlling them.
He then gained an insight.
For the Dao of spells, it emphasized the control of spiritual qi and the conversation rate of true origin energy. It also had extremely high requirements on the sensitivity of one’s spirit force.
However, this was precisely Feng Lin’s forte.
The ancient cultivation path and his mythological genes didn’t clash at all. They actually complemented each other!
Mythological genes were awakened innately. It was dependent on one’s talent and it needed to be strengthened. As for the ancient cultivation path, it was the cultivation method that the ancients used since primordial times.
Neither was better than the other, they were simply two different paths.
One was the transformation of one’s body, the other was gaining control of the mysteries of heaven and earth!
If he could somehow combine the two of them—man and heaven as one, fusing the inner with the external—he might be able to break the limit of the human body and reached the unfathomable realm where one was omniscient and omnipotent.
Feng Lin faintly felt that he had managed to comprehend one of the most profound mysteries of cultivation.
After that, he began to experiment with the other magical spells. Skyriver Mystic Ice Spell, Twelve Earthly Branches Form Transformation Spell, Heavenly Dipper Western Combat Formation…
Sun Wukong Gene was capable of endless transformations, and the Cultivation Gene comprehended the true nature of cultivation. With the two as one, it wasn’t too much to say that Feng Lin was that stone monkey in this world. He rapidly gained mastery of all spells and soon became proficient in them.
Right now, another month spent in cultivation passed. Feng Lin’s genetic potential rose to 12,379 points and he gained another free Houtian genetic point.
He then decisively added it onto the Sun Wukong Gene.
His life information also changed.
=====
Name: Feng Lin
Vitality stat: 31,800
Houtian Genes: Sun Wukong Gene x2; Cultivation Gene x2
Heaven Genes: Monkey King Gene x10; Daoheart Gene x10
Genetic potential: 2,379
=====
His vitality stat increased once more, breaking through the 30,000 mark.
At this moment, Feng Lin finally completely digested all his experiences of the final battle against the alien race.
He was very clear that after this, it wasn’t going to be so easy for him to enter a state of rapid improvement again. He would have to store his accumulations and wait for another hard-to-come-by opportunity in the future.
Now, he could only depend on consuming alchemy pills if he wanted to quickly improve his cultivation base in a short time.
Feng Lin had gained knowledge about ancient alchemy, and he naturally wouldn’t be the same as the others who had to assiduously depend on cultivation to raise their strength.
Right now, he had to concoct new alchemy pills!
As his cultivation continued to rise, Feng Lin discovered that the previously blurred out portions in his alchemy inheritance were now clear to him. New formulas for different alchemy pills and their concoction methods appeared.
This time around, Feng Lin set his sights on an alchemy pill named ‘Ten Thousand Refinements Spirit Pill’. This alchemy pill was at the spirit grade, just a step away from an immortal pill. Its medicinal potency was naturally incomparably greater compared to all the previous pills he had concocted.
From Feng Lin’s estimation, he guessed that right now, only pills of the spirit-grade would be effective for him.
He opened up the web interface and rapidly ordered those valuable pill ingredients from the university. His contribution points vanished very swiftly; over 5.6 million was already deducted.
He couldn’t help but say that the stores of the Great Wall University were truly abundant. As long as he had enough contribution points, he could buy anything he wanted to.
Very soon, all the ingredients he had bought was sent to his room.
With a wave of his hand, a gigantic eight-trigram furnace landed on the ground. The Earthfiend Truefire began to burn as the fragrance of medical herbs permeated the air.
