Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 389 - 254: Dream Again (Harvest Summary Transition Chapter)_2

Chapter 389: Chapter 254: Dream Again (Harvest Summary Transition Chapter)_2

He had failed in his attempt to achieve Divinity Transformation in this world and, in desperation, turned to the path of the Ghost God.

Two thousand years ago, before the two worlds had merged, many Nascent Soul cultivators like True Monarch Changrong, Phoenix Song Fairy, and other old friends of Xu Yang had no such opportunity and could only ascend to the Upper Realm in search of hope.

To this day, after five thousand years, it’s like casting a clay ox into the sea—still no news.

What exactly is happening in the Upper Realm that so many cultivators have ascended, yet there has been no word from any of them?

Xu Yang did not know, but he had come to view ascension as highly dangerous.

Previously, there was no choice, and each person had their own aspirations, which could not be forced upon them.

But now… Wandao School had already banned matters of ascension, no, rather they had elevated the qualifications for ascension from Nascent Soul to Integration.

After all, with the two worlds merged, Yuan Sprit was abundant, and the Cultivation Techniques had been completed, enabling the cultivators under Wandao School to potentially achieve Divinity Transformation, Return to Void, and even reach the Integration Realm in this world.

Therefore, although the Nascent Soul had the ability to Break the Realm, Wandao School did not permit ascension.

Having wasted over three thousand years barking up the wrong tree, Xu Yang had no intention of continuing in that vein.

At the very least, one had to reach Integration or even Mahayana, to explore the development potential after the fusion of the two worlds, before considering ascension again.

Could the Primordial Spirit World of old, which produced Immortals capable of reaching the Integration Realm, now merged with the World of Dao and Law, nurture Mahayana True Immortals or even beings of higher realms and status?

Xu Yang was hopeful and worked tirelessly toward that end.

As the saying goes, “When one man attains Dao, his chickens and dogs ascend to the heavens.”

Many of his old friends had, like Chu Nan, joined the Yin Mountain Mansion.

The Ten Thousand Tribulations Yin Spirit is hard to enter the Sacred Place, and the path forward offers a slim hope.

But slim hope is not absolute. As long as he kept improving and one day achieved the power of Immortal Gods, he could well manage to bring one or two along.

Human beings are not heartless plants; these old friends were his disciples and followers, each one contributing greatly to the foundation of his cultivation and to Wandao School.

As the Taoist Master and as an instructor, if he had the capability, he would certainly pull them up.

This was the essence of managing a household, a country, and walking the path of Dao.

Beings are a community of interests. Even though Spell Cultivators are noble and virtuous enough to give up their lives for justice, as a monarch and leader, you must ensure the interests of the collective, of everyone.

In this way, a force, a group can continue and grow.

Powered by love and selfless dedication?

Foolishly untenable, there is wisdom even in seeking death!

…

As for becoming Immortal Gods, those were concerns for the future, pointless to ponder now.

At present, he was merely a minor Soul-transforming Cultivator.

Yes, Soul-transforming!

For two thousand years, his Cultivation had remained at Soul-transforming, never entering the Return to Void Realm!

It couldn’t be helped; he had too many matters to attend to. Just as Chu Nan had sacrificed his path for the sake of White Jade Capital and the Demon-locking Tower, how could he, as Taoist Master, concern himself with only his own transcendence, ignoring the welfare of the world?

The threat of the Desire Realm and the lurking danger from the Heavenly Demons were too great—requiring decisive responses. Otherwise, the World of Dao and Law, along with Wandao School, would face the risk of being turned upside down or even destroyed.

The foundation of a lifetime in Dao and Law versus the progress of Cultivation at any given moment.

The difference in weight doesn’t need to be stated.

Thus, for these two thousand years, Xu Yang’s main task was not cultivation, but to receive an inheritance, to take over the legacies of the Primordial Spirit’s World and the Ancient Immortal Gates.

Under his leadership as Taoist Master, Wandao School dedicated itself to tackling challenges head-on, assimilating the legacy of sects like Mysterious Heaven Sect into their foundation. This advancement elevated the skill levels of Elixir Skills, Talisman, Artifact Skills, and Formations from fourth to sixth order. They also produced results such as the Primordial Spirit Liquid, the Five Elements True Spirit Map, and the Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower.

This was on the technical side.

As for cultivation techniques, integrating the ancient heritage led to the unification of the Taoism Divine Soul and the Yuan Spirit Cultivation systems into one, releasing advanced Cultivation Techniques such as “Taoist Scriptures: Primordial Spirit Chapter” and “Taoist Scriptures: Return to Void Chapter,” with prospects of introducing portions of Integration and Mahayana in the future.

The achievements were indeed remarkable!

With these accomplishments, the situation was barely stabilized. Unless a Mahayana Demon Lord or even a Desire Realm Demon God arrived, personally and regardless of the cost, the three Great Immortal Spirit Mech Armors would absolutely be able to suppress the situation inside the Demon-locking Tower.

Relative tranquility prevailed for the time being. While the World of Dao and Law still had room to develop, aiming to attain seventh-tier skills and Integration Mahayana techniques, such realms were deeply profound and arcane. Without thousands to tens of thousands of years of refinement, one could hardly expect any fruitful outcomes.

Thousands to tens of thousands of years?

Whether the World of Dao and Law or the Primordial Spirit World, the difference in time compared to the real world is a factor of one hundred, and this disparity remained unchanged after the two worlds merged.

Although ten thousand years seem long, it equates to only a century of actual time, hardly significant.

But…

The Void Spirit Cave Heaven was upcoming, with contenders eyeing it with covetous zeal!

A century?

In the two thousand years he had spent dreaming, twenty years had also passed in reality.

Based on the previous estimate, in another seventy or eighty years, the Void Spirit Cave Heaven would open. Sects and Sacred Places like Big Dipper Immortal Sect would descend, and a number of Great Return to Void Cultivators and Integration Powers would vie for the legacy of the Void Spirit Monarch. It might even disturb the Mahayana True Immortals. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

How perilous would the situation be?

Under such a dire scenario, Xu Yang desperately needed to ensure his own ability to protect himself, which is why he embarked on this dream journey.

Although the gains from this journey were substantial, they were still insufficient to turn the tide.

Even if Wandao School had deduced seventh-tier techniques, how could a clever wife cook without rice? The resources within the Void Spirit Cave Heaven simply could not support the application of these high-tier techniques or the construction of Immortal Spirit Mech Armors and Immortal Spirit Grand Formations; that was mere wishful thinking!

If not relying on skills, could he depend on his own Cultivation?

His own Cultivation was still at Nascent Soul, and even now, with the techniques in hand, he was still constrained by resources. In the decades ahead, at best he might achieve Soul-Transforming, without even touching the edges of the Return to Void.
