Early History on Lan Ying Star
The Immortal Path on Lan Ying Star began as an unorganized body of inheritances acquired by secretly entering the outside cultivation world and eliminating scattered invaders. Its strongest cultivator was initially only at Golden Core; even with nuclear weapons and missiles, the early Immortal Sect could at best kill a single Nascent Soul cultivator at immense cost and with great luck. 125
The Blood Cloud Sect, a Deity Transformation sect, conquered Lan Ying Star after a struggle lasting a little over a century. Billions died, the Immortal Sect collapsed, and the population was reduced to blood slaves used for the Blood Cloud Myriad Transformations Scripture and the Myriad Blood Banner. 125
In the year 4785, the first sage Yuan used his own soul as a core material, alongside the sacrifices of countless geniuses, to refine the first-generation Central Array Spirit Computer. Its weak Nascent Soul-level combat strength gave the surviving Immortal Sect concealment, predictive capacity, and an organization that could no longer be easily destroyed. 125
After Yuan neared death, Golden Core cultivator Cong self-destructed to merge his soul into the Central Array Spirit Computer. This succession continued until Wu became the Immortal Sect's first true Nascent Soul cultivator. Under Wu, centuries of work on Law-Breaking Steel and optical array engraving machines matured, strengthening the sect's capacity for mid- and low-level war; the sect later severed the planar passage to the Blood Cloud Sect and recovered. 125
Scientific Method
| Principle | Practice |
|---|---|
| Systematic research | Immortal Path research is organized around several or dozens of research cores, supported by millions or tens of millions of cultivators rather than isolated individual deduction. 1333 |
| Trial, error, and revision | New cultivation techniques are repeatedly adjusted and tested; even an incorrect path remains valuable because it can later be modified through further research. 1480 |
| Inheritance integration | The Immortal Sect searches acquired inheritances for solutions to stalled projects, allowing prior sages' work to replace research from scratch. 1825 |
| Broad application | Immortal Path Science encompasses pills, smelting, military formations, spirit plants, farming formation arrays, and other cultivation disciplines. 1825 |
| Paid participation | Research projects provide rewards and resources rather than requiring selfless labor, though citizens receive substantially greater compensation than affiliated outsiders or vassal cultivators. 1939 |
Cultivation Framework
| Stage / concept | Documented significance |
|---|---|
| Golden Core | The early Immortal Sect's highest cultivation level; it was insufficient to reliably oppose Nascent Soul cultivators during the Blood Cloud Sect era. 125 |
| Nascent Soul | The first-generation Central Array Spirit Computer reached weak Nascent Soul combat power, while Wu was the Immortal Sect's first true Nascent Soul cultivator. 125 |
| Void Refinement | Cultivators establish an independent Immortal Path Ecosystem by adding souls to it, allowing great increases in magic power, divine soul, and lifespan and enabling independent existence away from a world. 1205 |
| Dao Integration | A cultivator's Spirit Imprint may enter the Heavenly Dao, granting an Immortal-and-Indestructible characteristic so long as the imprint is not devoured by the Heavenly Dao. 1335 |
| Heavenly Being | Progress requires altering the Rules of Heaven and Earth; cultivators without sufficient foundation die with certainty upon taking this step. 1636 |
| Supreme | A Supreme can convert spiritual energy from the Great Dao and Chaos to sustain itself with nearly negligible loss; Calamity remains the chief limit on longevity. 2119 |
| True Immortal | True Immortals cannot merely imitate another's scripture; they must forge a unique path of their own. 1975 |
Core Technologies
Central Array Spirit Computer
The Central Array Spirit Computer became the surviving foundation of the Immortal Sect after Yuan's sacrifice. It provided concealment, predictive ability, and organizational continuity during the sect's occupation by the Blood Cloud Sect. 125
It later became a central mechanism for managing vassal civilizations through commands, missions, and rewards. Its Subordinate Network monitors users, restricts public opinion, and offers less knowledge and fewer advancement opportunities than the Citizen Network. 1609
Six Paths of Reincarnation
The Six Paths of Reincarnation is an exceptionally adaptable structure found throughout Human Race inheritances. It can make the same expenditure of spiritual energy more effective, and the Immortal Sect identified links to 277,000 cultivation-technique canons and spells. 1262
Under the Great Sun Sword Master's influence, Six Paths technology was applied across pill refining, artifact refining, smelting, synthesis, cultivation techniques, spells, and military formations. 1705
Immortal Techniques
Immortal Techniques are complete and excessively complex inheritances that can overwhelm a cultivator's understanding. Jiang Ding compares attempting to comprehend them to knowledge pollution: an Immortal Technique fragment may be valuable research material, but it can also endanger the person studying it. 586
Immortal Path Universe Constants
Immortal Path Universe Constants describe the changing foundations of the Immortal Path Universe. Jiang Ding's empirical formula for these constants greatly improves spells, sword techniques, artifacts, magic treasures, and warships, though early calculations require a delay of roughly three to four days. 2180
When Jiang Ding shared the formula with the Immortal Sect, it accelerated productivity, research, combat strength, and cultivators' comprehension across the civilization. 2187
Industrial System
The Immortal Path Industry System combines cultivation, manufacturing, research, and inter-realm resource allocation. In the Ancient God Domain, it developed into a nation spanning forty-one realms and more than ten thousand worlds, with a population in the trillions and numerous races contributing specialized knowledge and labor. 1612
At Youming No. 1 Factory, Immortal Sect modifications more than doubled the effectiveness of inherited sword-refining materials and increased output tenfold, including materials for Void Refinement-grade sword forging. 1609
The system distinguishes sharply between citizens and subordinates:
- Citizen Network — grants access to extensive Immortal Path knowledge according to what a user can comprehend. 1609
- Subordinate Network — restricts knowledge, intelligence, privacy, rewards, and advancement; its users must earn access through merit and demonstrated loyalty. 1609
- Ascended immigrants — may seal their memories, cultivation, soul, and body, be reborn into the Immortal Sect's education system, and regain their former abilities after reaching Nascent Soul again. 1620
Role in Human Civilization
The Immortal Path is presented as the acquired foundation of Human Race strength. Unlike races supported by bloodline inheritance, humanity depends on civilization, accumulated knowledge, and institutions; without them, humans may be weaker than insignificant demon clans and unable even to qualify as slaves. 1036
The Immortal Sect treats knowledge systems—not merely individual high-level scriptures—as the basis for future advancement. Studying an entire civilization's fundamental theories can enable the creation of new top-tier scriptures, while simply copying another's path cannot produce a True Immortal. 1975
Its stated long-term approach is to preserve the Immortal Sect citizens' status while incorporating morally acceptable Human Race and non-human talents into the shared pursuit of immortality. 1139
