Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 205
Right now, Jiang Xiu had already entered into closed-door cultivation. The no. of divine regalia he possessed had already reached up to 69. The divine regalia pattern was almost finished, and the lowermost strokes had already combined. He believed that the 69th one would be the final stroke, but that wasn't the case.
He held one Longevity Stone in each hand and sat cross-legged inside the room. The qi and blood inside his body surged with power and began to simmer like boiling water. Whenever he cultivated now, thunder rumbled within his body, giving rise to sounds like that of a thunderstorm over the sea.
An alternating red and blue luster covered the surface of his body, making the room warm up then cool down in turn.
Boom!
The frequency of the alternating red-blue became higher, and when it reached the max, it led to an explosion, causing the red-blue luster to break down like a crystal and shoot out in all direction. All of it then got sucked into Jiang Xiu's body as if space-time flowed backward. Jiang Xiu's eyes suddenly opened, revealing an intense light inside them.
70th Awakening! This was the so-called 70th Form of Deification on Earth.
However, besides the change in the aura, Jiang Xiu hadn't experienced any other changes.
"Hmm? It still isn't done?"
Jiang Xiu looked at the divine regalia pattern on his arm. Another stroke had appeared in between the character. There was a total of 70 divine regalia, and it was only a little far from becoming complete.
Again!
Boom!
71st divine regalia.
Boom!
72nd divine regalia.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Along with his arduous cultivation day and night, the no. of divine regalia on his arm reached a total of 80. The divine regalia pattern was already pretty clear, and the power in his body rose rapidly, but the divine regalia still wasn't complete. He couldn't transform his energy into divinity and was thus unable to become a real god.
The divine regalia on his arm appeared completely different depending on the angle he looked at it from. This was also natural. Even an ordinary portrait looked different from various angles, but the divine regalia wasn't identified based on the direction. Its genuine essence lied in its charm. Each divine regalia pattern released an intense mystical intent which took form into a substance-like formidable power.
But unless the divine regalia became complete, it wasn't possible to awaken the note and thus impossible to utilize the magic power inside the divine regalia character.
Boom!
Jiang Xiu awakened once again, and different from the previous attempts, he sensed some kind of dominant suppression suppress him baselessly during this awakening. His eyes grew wide open.
"This power is…"
Jiang Xiu was utterly shocked. He never expected such a situation to occur. He raised his arm and took a look at the divine regalia on it. There were 81 divine regalia on it. 9 times 9 gives rise to 81, which implied infinity. There was no place left in the divine regalia pattern for another stroke.
"How is this possible?"
When the divine regalia forms completely, it should've erupted with intense power and awakened him thoroughly, thus evolving him to a true divinity and completed the evolution process.
But Jiang Xiu didn't evolve after the divine regalia got completed.
"Is this world preventing me from becoming a God?"
Jiang Xiu felt unreconciled and cultivated again. He wanted to force through it, but that dominant suppression appeared once again. Puchi! He threw up a mouthful of blood.
Heavenly Retribution!
It was Heavenly Retribution for defying the heavens.
"WHY? WHY WON'T YOU LET ME BECOME A GOD?"
Jiang Xiu's mouth was full of blood, and an ominous glint flashed in his eyes while he spoke the words one after other in an unswerving manner. He couldn't understand why this had happened or what the problem was.
As Jiang Xiu couldn't find the reason it had happened using his three millenniums of cultivation experience, there was only one explanation. There was a difference between Earth where he was currently on and the Immortal Martial Continent. He was limited by this world's constraints.
He couldn't think of a method to settle to this issue right now, and the Mid-autumn festival's appointment was approaching near. Even he didn't have much grasp in fighting a God while still in the Demigod stage.
He pondered on it over several times and finally decided to either cultivate the sword or the saber to increase his fighting strength.
In his previous life, Jiang Xiu had cultivated the sword and a well-known sword cultivator on the Immortal Martial Continent. However, he always felt there was a defect in his sword and that he wasn't perfectly compatible with the sword.
He had once specially set out to investigate his compatibility with the sword which was revealed to be 99.9%.
It was very high. This news had shocked the entire Immortal Martial World back then. Surpassing 90% was already considered as having top-notch talent with the sword. 99% compatibility meant he was a genius within geniuses.
This was revealed by the speed at which his sword cultivation progressed.
But he always felt something was wrong.
This sensation was quite subtle and also very mysterious. Like the common phrase - Only after drinking water can a person can tell whether the water is warm or cold. Each person has a different conception of warmness and coldness which can only be determined by their judgment.
Therefore, this time, he planned to test the saber.
The Heaven Treading Sect hadn't focused on saber cultivation, so Jiang Xiu never dabbled in it and walked the path of sword cultivation and never thought of it, but it was different now as he was starting from scratch all over.
No matter whether it was sword cultivation or saber cultivation, the first step was to form the pill, which was the saber pill in this case and also called the saber embryo.
The next step is to gather exotic, heavenly materials as the quality of the materials would significantly influence the might of the saber cultivation. Right now, the only heavenly materials Jiang Xiu had on hand were the two Longevity Stones with him.
He could only refine these Longevity Stones.
Jiang Xiu sat cross-legged again and calmed his heart, slowly bringing his thoughts to nihility. Jiang Xiu was a cultivation devil. His obsession with cultivation was the same as an otaku's obsession towards games. Just an encounter with it was enough to fascinate him and single-mindedly devote himself to it, making him progress faster than ordinary people.
At the divinity source, the divine forced surged continuously amidst the vast sea. Not matter whether it was the inner strength of martial artists or divine force of Demigods, they were all intrinsic energies so they would inevitably get exhausted at some period of time as they were limited in quantity. Only by becoming a God could one extract power from the void to use it and gain the abilities to transform nature or fly in the sky.
It was quite difficult for Jiang Xiu to refine the Longevity Stones before evolving to a God.
A divine light enveloped the Longevity Stones, which then gradually transformed into fragmented energy particles.
Jiang Xiu didn't know what of matter the Longevity Stones were made from and also didn't know whether they could be refined. However, Deity Xiu's sixth sense told him that this object could be refined. In his cognition, any matter in this world could be refined, the question was whether you can do it or not.
The characters on the stone flickered then dimmed, but the difference from before was clearly visible. The energy particles slowly separated from its surface. The speed wasn't that fast so the process could be seen with the naked eye.
The next process was pretty delicate. At one side, the Longevity Stone must be refined using the divine light while the energy particles from the Longevity Stones must be absorbed into the divinity source simultaneously.
Before long, a sparkling energy ball floated inside Jiang Xiu's divinity source.
After some time, both the Longevity Stones transformed into condensed energy particles in his hands.
This revealed the refining rate was faster than the absorption rate.
Jiang Xiu's cultivation speed began to rise slowly.
The bright light ball began to rotate and absorb more energy particles. It's increasing speed was noticeable through the naked eye.
Such hue Longevity Stones only gave rise a tiny light ball after undergoing refinement.
However, the sense of magnitude at the boundless divinity source wasn't regular and was a kind of visual perception, but this perception wasn't baseless. The Longevity Stones had condensed during the process of refinement.
This created another difficult problem to Jiang Xiu.
Suddenly, the silvery rotating light ball began to unfold little by little and become similar to a thread.
Xiu!
This light thread flew out of the divinity source, driven by his divine intent, it seemed to pass through the vast universe and rush out from the Yin Palace on his forehead, leaving behind a needle-sized blood drop at the Yin Palace.
The silvery light thread flew out and grew larger in size.
It transformed into a 3-inch-long saber knife which floated before in between the space of Jiang Xiu's eyebrows.
"Saber Pill."
It was finally done.
It was created using a heaven-defying refinement technique and didn't differentiate between friend and foe inside the body. Jiang Xiu's Godhead, especially his divinity source was extraordinarily frail, and it could injure the divinity source if he weren't careful. The consequences of that would be devastating. Therefore, it was in the pill form when kept at the divinity source. Only when he becomes a genuine God could he truly refine the saber pill. Therefore, he had to act prudently until then.
He controlled the saber knife and made it orbit on top of his head once.
"Go!"
Along with his command, the saber knife appeared in front of the sword placed on the display and cut it into two pieces, making it fall to the ground.
