D-Damn, damn, what was that commotion...
The system in Li Tianwei's mind had long sensed the violent disturbance outside. It had only hidden in Li Tianwei's mind for a short while, yet its host had already gone and stirred up trouble again.
After sensing the disturbance outside, the system reviewed what Li Tianwei had just done and was utterly dumbfounded.
The people of this world might not know what Li Tianwei was doing, but as a system that had traversed worlds and possessed insight that reached the heavens and penetrated the earth, how could it not understand what he was up to?
Li Tianwei, you're courting death! Fission? What do you know about fission?
At the thought of the consequences of Li Tianwei's next move, even the system, nothing more than a strand of data, could not help but feel its heart turn ice-cold.
"Of course I understand..."
"E=mc²..."
Listening to the voice in his mind, especially the system's doubts about what he was doing, Li Tianwei immediately rattled off the reaction equations in one breath.
After saying so much, his mouth was even starting to feel sore.
When the system heard Li Tianwei rattling away and compared those equations against the records in its data, they were actually identical.
How did you know these things?
"I didn't read all those books for nothing. If Einstein hadn't been born before me, who knew whose hands the Theory of Relativity would have come from first?"
Li Tianwei answered disdainfully.
"Don't get in my way. Once I complete Drawing Qi into the Body and step onto the path of immortality, I'll ascend to immortality in a single step."
After saying that, Li Tianwei immediately began his operation. As for the system in his mind, it was still shaken by his shameless words. By the time it came back to its senses, Li Tianwei was already at work.
Don't!
Seeing Li Tianwei absorb that spiritual energy filled with supreme fury, the system was already too late to stop him.
At that moment, the system deeply regretted binding itself to such an arrogant madman as Li Tianwei. If Li Tianwei died, its final chance would be gone as well. In that case, it would surely vanish.
Thinking of its own ending, the system's vision went black as it waited for death to arrive.
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
As he drew that violent spiritual energy into his body, Li Tianwei stiffened all over. His entire body seemed to scream as blood seeped continuously from his pores and his skin began to crack.
The pain of Bone Marrow Extraction, like ten thousand ants gnawing at him, kept coursing through his body, yet Li Tianwei acted as if he had not heard it.
"Just a normal reaction from cultivation..."
Looking at his cracked skin, where Five-Colored Spiritual Energy flickered within, Li Tianwei felt a surging power rise from the depths of his heart. That powerful sensation made him feel there was no major problem.
It just hurt a little.
Meanwhile, the system within Li Tianwei's consciousness had shut its eyes in panic, waiting for this host to collapse and for itself to sink into eternal darkness.
Yet the outcome it had expected did not occur. When it sensed Li Tianwei again,
it saw him continuously taking out all kinds of supreme healing medicines from the storage ring on his hand. Bai Muxu would not give Li Tianwei pills or other items that could increase his cultivation, but when it came to healing, he had provided more than enough.
"Lesser Creation Pill, Jade Flesh Bone-Regrowing Pill, Life-Extending Pill..."
These pills, capable of reviving the dead and growing flesh on white bones, enough to make countless Rogue Cultivators fight over them, were being swallowed desperately by Li Tianwei as though they cost nothing.
Because he was eating in such a rush, Li Tianwei did not even see the instructions Bai Muxu had left behind. These supreme healing medicines could only be consumed after one became an immortal cultivator and reached the Qi Refining Stage.
Yet Li Tianwei had only completed Drawing Qi into the Body. To immortal cultivators, these were sacred medicines, but if mortals consumed them, there was only one outcome: they would be burst apart by the spiritual power within.
But now, a second outcome had appeared. The Five-Colored Spiritual Energy was terrifyingly violent, constantly damaging Li Tianwei's body, while he continuously swallowed these healing pills, causing their medicinal effects to erupt at this moment.
These pills already contained extremely terrifying energy, but that energy was meant to restore the consumer. If an ordinary person swallowed them, the immense spiritual power would have nowhere to be stored or used for replenishment, and they would ultimately explode.
Yet at this moment, the Five-Colored Spiritual Energy brought forth by Li Tianwei's Drawing Qi was rampaging without cease, and it happened to provide these pills with an outlet.
The medicinal properties of these pills had been made to heal and restore, while Li Tianwei's body was continuously being destroyed. At this moment, the effects of these sacred healing medicines were fully unleashed, endlessly filling in every part of his body.
His cracked skin became smooth in an instant, then cracked once more. Blood continuously welled from his pores, while his Spiritual Veins were torn apart and continuously restored.
Under this situation where two negatives became a positive, the two forces temporarily reached a balance. One side's excessive destruction sought to make Li Tianwei's body collapse, while the other side's excessive restoration could also kill him. But when they happened simultaneously, it became different.
At this time, Li Tianwei's body was also continuously transforming under this state.
The pills restored Li Tianwei's body, which was on the verge of shattering, while spiritual energy continuously squeezed into every corner of his body.
No one knew how much time passed. Following the qi-guiding method of the Heavenly Origin Dao Foundation Method, Li Tianwei continuously assaulted the Dao Embryo within his body.
According to the Heavenly Origin Dao Foundation Method, the Dao Embryo of anyone with Spiritual Veins was nurtured within their body, and the purity of that Dao Embryo depended on the attribute and aptitude of their Spiritual Veins.
The better one's aptitude, the purer the Dao Embryo. By Drawing Qi into the Body, one could transform the human body into a Dao Body and thus set foot on the path of immortality.
Furthermore, depending on the aptitude of one's Spiritual Veins, one could transform into different Dao Bodies.
According to the Heavenly Origin Dao Foundation Method, a Pure Yang Heavenly Spirit Root could evolve into a Heavenly Origin Dao Body, a Pure Yang Sacred Body, a Sunset Sky Peculiar Body... If one had dual Spiritual Veins, it might become a Fire-Wood Hetero-Elemental Body, a Heavenly Light Five-Spirit Body, an Azure Wave Sacred Water Body...
These constitutions allowed one to gain enormous benefits when cultivating spells, and the techniques unleashed would possess far greater power than those of ordinary immortal cultivators.
And now, what Li Tianwei needed to do was nurture his own Dao Body and thus step onto the road of cultivation.
"I wonder what kind of Dao Body I'll nurture!"
Feeling the impact of spiritual energy, Li Tianwei began using the Heavenly Origin Dao Foundation Method to envelop the Dao Embryo.
The spiritual energy he had guided using the fission formula was incomparably violent. When Li Tianwei's consciousness reached the location of the Dao Embryo, he saw that the Dao Embryo described by the Heavenly Origin Dao Foundation Method seemed somewhat different from the one inside him.
A normal Dao Embryo should have been pure and flawless, yet the Dao Embryo within Li Tianwei's consciousness was covered in cracks. It also contained an extremely ominous aura, with black patterns spread all over it and threads of destructive intent leaking forth.
"As expected, I'm special."
Seeing this unusual Dao Embryo, Li Tianwei did not find it strange. Instead, he considered it only natural.
