Perfection of the Void Projection Technique

The Three Realms.

The core Cultivation Method for the foreseeable future, both in Gu Jinlai.

It consists of the Chaotic Astral Body, the Eternal Furnace, the Spiritual Technique, and the Nebula Strategy.

Its level has surpassed deep gold and reached the pinnacle of radiant gold, on the verge of transforming into an orange- Cultivation Method.

If he truly wants to achieve another breakthrough in his strength, he will have no choice but to begin perfecting and cultivating this Cultivation Method.

Only...

Looking at the word "crippled" after "spiritual technique," he always felt a bit uncomfortable.

They were even more worried that practicing such a flawed Cultivation Method might leave hidden dangers in the future.

Especially since the True Person Wushi specifically left him a message telling him not to become a spirit.

"There are probably some dangers in the spirit world, which is why the True Person Wushi left the last words 'Do not become a spirit' to remind me. But my becoming a spirit is to first build a small spirit world based on myself... It is not to directly burn my essence, energy and spirit into the spirit world to fight for that last bit of life force to become a spirit. Theoretically, I should not encounter any danger."

Gu Jinlai have pondered this.

But in the end, he still shifted his focus away from the "Three Realms".

Even though he thought there was no danger, he still didn't want to gamble.

"Let's go to the Immortal Kingdom first, and obtain the complete Spirit Technique from the Immortal Kingdom... or rather, from the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, and then fully integrate it into the orange Three Cultivation Method."

Gu Jinlai, people have made their decisions.

He turned his gaze back to the Chaos Astral Body.

"Although the consumption of hundreds of beams of light did not allow the Chaotic Starlight Body to transform into a deep gold color, thanks to the fact that the Aries Star Lord had come into contact with too many innate divine beasts, the difficulty of cultivating this Cultivation Method has been greatly reduced. The key is that he skipped the preliminary process of the Great Sun Demon God Body Refining Technique. Anyone with the cultivation level of Martial King can start directly and greatly shorten the cultivation time by refining the Thunder Magnetic Essence Gold."

Gu Jinlai looking at this skill orb.

His massive investment was well worth it.

Then he looked at the Eternal Furnace.

Thanks to Xie Yusheng's vision of a large-scale nuclear fusion reactor, the power of the Eternal Furnace has finally been increased once again.

The skill color has been upgraded from gold to dark gold, which seems to be close to radiant gold.

Correspondingly, the rank dropped from Perfection to Great Completion.

Gu Jinlai, we have tried to raise the Eternal Furnace to perfection again, which would require approximately eight hundred rays of clear light.

And once it's upgraded...

The power has increased, but since the Chaotic Astral Body cannot keep up, it will eventually face the same situation as when the Chaotic Astral Body was not yet perfect.

So he hasn't decided yet.

"The light is still not enough."

Gu Jinlai.

In the past three months, he has completely purged Qiantian.

Those that needed to be tried have basically all been tried, and the number of items cleared at that time once reached four figures.

However, after completing the optimization of the Nine Refinements of the Morning Light Visualization Method, the Chaotic Starlight Body, and the Eternal Furnace, only about six hundred of these clear lights remained.

"The Eternal Furnace's characteristic is that it is inexhaustible and ever-renewing. Even if the Eternal Furnace is upgraded to the perfect level, it will only make it easier for me to defeat True Immortals and not be afraid of a large number of True Immortals joining forces in terms of endurance. However, it is still difficult to deal with the Cave Heaven Immortal Lord. But... even in the Immortal Kingdom, there are only about thirty True Immortals."

Gu Jinlai have pondered this.

Given that Qingguang needs to conserve its power, this increase in endurance is not very meaningful, and it is even less significant than raising the Celestial Person Wheel of Divine Ability to perfection.

The rest...

Gu Jinlai, people have turned their attention to spiritual techniques.

"The prerequisite for cultivation in the Three Realms is to perfect the Spiritual Mechanism Technique. Although this Spiritual Mechanism Technique is not perfect, if I can perfect it, I may be able to glimpse the true nature of the Spiritual Mechanism Technique..."

With this thought in mind, attention Gu Jinlai has focused on the art of spiritual manipulation.

A large amount of pure light was immediately poured into this method.

For a moment, all sorts of mysteries about "spiritual opportunity" and spiritual techniques flowed through his mind again.

Spiritual Technique: Mastery → Perfection.

At the moment when his spiritual technique reached its peak, he seemed to have touched the essence of "spiritual mechanism".

This essence is not as simple as "the will of all living beings" or "the spirit of all things".

That is...

Based on the most primal foundation of life and all things.

It's like...

"To build the most fundamental rules of the world."

From Gu Jinlai, they have murmured to themselves.

What is the essence of the world?

It's matter!

It's energy!

It's about spirit!

It's also about willpower!

Everything has a spirit.

Gu Jinlai, people have been revisiting this original principle that Daoist masters were required to follow.

"So... the essence of the world is everything that can sustain the existence of matter? Or rather, it is the concept of 'existence' itself!"

So, the essence of inspiration is the essence of "existence"!?

This concept encompasses matter, energy, spirit, and even the formation of self in living beings.

In other words, willpower?

If we consider this approach...

So, a flash of inspiration...

"Is it 'existence' born from 'nothingness'? Or is it like an all-powerful substance capable of forming all matter, energy, spirit, and will? Only with spiritual energy can one possess everything? In the terminology of cultivation, spiritual energy is equivalent to creation!"

Gu Jinlai, people have gained some profound insights.

He vaguely realized where the most crucial point was missing in the art of spiritual manipulation.

It's truly a stroke of luck!

In the immortal realm, the use of spiritual energy greatly enhances the strength of cultivators, allowing them to progress in their cultivation by leaps and bounds...

Isn't this a kind of "creation"?

But that's not all.

Since a place lacking spiritual energy can make people's aptitude extremely poor and their potential completely gone, doesn't that mean it can also change a person's cultivation aptitude?

At the same time, all things possess a spirit, and all things are constructed from spirits. As the essence of the spirit of all things, does the spirit possess the power to transform rocks into life, plants into spirits, barren land into oases, and darkness into light?

However, there is absolutely no record of any spiritual techniques passed down from these true "Creation" Immortal Kingdoms.

Even worse, if inspiration really does drain away rapidly and becomes extremely scarce...

What will the Realm of Immortality become?

Through the memories of the Aries Star Lord, Gu Jinlai suddenly thought of outer space, of some desolate stars, and even of the Demon Realm...

Everything suddenly became clear.

"If all the inspiration in this world truly disappears..."

He vaguely understood the fate of a star.

First, those uniquely blessed divine beasts and innate deities disappeared.

Furthermore, the Celestial Master system, which involved the application of spiritual power, perished.

Without the existence of "spirit," there will naturally be no "Spiritual Qi" for cultivation, and the cultivation civilization will eventually be extinct.

Then, the environment deteriorated.

In the end, it was completely reduced to a desolate star, like any other star in outer space.

There was nothing but rocks and gravel.

In the end, there won't even be any rocks or gravel left; it will become a gaseous star. Finally, the star's internal gravity will collapse, causing a supernova explosion, and it will completely turn into cosmic dust and disappear without a trace.

Gu Jinlai, it has inspired awe in my heart.

The first stage: Innate Divine Beast!

Over the millennia, the number of innate divine beasts has been dwindling.

Rumors circulate that the innate divine beasts escaped to an unknown place due to excessive hunting by the creators.

Or perhaps they were hunted and killed outright, leading to their extinction.

But...

Is it possible that the current environment can no longer give birth to innate divine beasts, and these divine beasts are dying of old age one by one, which is why there are fewer and fewer divine beasts?

As for the second stage...

He thought of the "Heavenly Dao" that was being nurtured in the Immortal Kingdom!

The ultimate goal of that "Heavenly Dao" is to eradicate all spiritual life.

How similar this is to the second step of a world, a star, beginning its death!

"With the extinction of spiritual life, the next stage will be the demise of the cultivator civilization..."

From Gu Jinlai, they have murmured to themselves.

Just then, a flash of inspiration struck him.

He thought of the High Antiquity myths and legends on Blue Star.

Is it possible that Blue Star is currently in its third phase?

The stage after the extinction of cultivation civilization.

It is precisely because spirituality is insufficient to sustain the survival of cultivators that people shifted from a civilization based on cultivation to a technological civilization, leaving behind countless myths and legends!

For a moment, a strong impulse arose from Gu Jinlai.

The urge to go to Blue Star and uncover the truth behind the High Antiquity myths and legends of Blue Star.

"I went to Blue Star twice, but due to the long distance and excessive energy expenditure, I was forced to return after a short time. In addition, I was 'borrowing' Xie Yusheng's perspective to see the outside world. Not to mention that Blue Star is not even sure if it is in the third stage, even if it is, I simply cannot see it clearly..."

Gu Jinlai, he finally turned his attention to the Void Projection Technique, which he had created long ago but which was still at the advanced stage.

The next moment, the remaining clear light trembled and quickly surged toward the Void Projection Technique.

Instantly, the mysteries of the Void Projection Technique resurfaced.

"At this moment, I am almost equivalent to a spirit being... or rather, when I performed the Void Projection Technique, I completed the transformation of myself into a 'spirit,' so I can easily exchange information with all spirits and thus appear in every place that has a 'spirit.'"

From Gu Jinlai, they have murmured to themselves.

This must be a Secret Method that only the Creators can Orthodox God.

No wonder it consumes so much energy every time he uses it.

However, after sensing it carefully for a moment, he vaguely realized why Void Projection, a projection technique, had become a gold skill.

Void Projection Technique: Perfect.

Derivative property: Assimilation.

This characteristic has been observed Gu Jinlai.

Assimilation.

Those who know me will leave their mark.

Those who look upon me will inevitably bear the consequences.

In the past, Gu Jinlai believed that this so-called "trace" is like a coordinate, making it easier for him to find it next time.

But when the Void Projection Technique was truly perfected, he discovered that the so-called "traces" were actually...

It refers to assimilation.

The Void Projection Technique is essentially an exchange and transformation between "spirits".

Any being whose "spirit" is inferior to his will be assimilated by the traces left on him, that is, the residual "spirituality," after being projected by him.

Assimilated into a form that leans towards him.

Considering that this is the skill most suitable for the creator, in other words, the projected one will be gradually assimilated into some weak spirit beings.
