Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 1256: Chapter 98: Awareness/Trajectory_2

But no matter how Su sees it, the word “fast” seems glaring.

Because his cultivation speed is also very fast, even termed as the greatest genius in ten thousand years.

In an instant, many details that he hadn’t noticed before, or didn’t pay much attention to, came to his mind.

“Other cultivators, even those from the Destiny Palace, when reaching the Twelfth Realm and about to break through to the Thirteen Realms, their cultivation speed slows down, but mine becomes faster…”

A rapid cultivation speed is a given for Su.

Just like the common knowledge that ordinary beings must eat to sustain life.

Until now, he only thought this was a special trait of his genius.

But the investigations and data from the mysterious strongman kept pointing out to him.

There are major issues with this cultivation speed.

As someone who has smoothly cultivated to his current realm, Su felt panic for the first time in his heart.

He even started to doubt his own path.

‘Should I continue cultivating?’

If the information on those cultivators applies to him too, then death awaits him.

And the higher-ups of the Destiny Palace.

Did they really not notice anything unusual about this situation?

All of a sudden, Su felt that everything around him was dangerous.

And as his cultivation improved, the mysterious strongman he once watched with caution suddenly seemed like a kind of hope.

‘Sir, what exactly has happened to me?’

He knew that his thoughts would definitely be noticed by the mysterious strongman.

It was indeed so, as Wang Sheng, who was collecting geniuses, sensed Su’s thoughts through that trace of divine thought.

“He noticed, which is normal.”

As a witness himself, if no one points it out it’s fine, but once someone does, it’s easy to snap out of the confusion of being deeply involved.

“However, Su can’t die, nor can he stop cultivating.”

If cultivation stops, how can he watch the formation route of the River of Destiny?

Though there might not be any immediate danger, Su clearly wouldn’t believe it.

So he transmitted through divine thought: “To save your life, continue cultivating, stop cultivating, and you’ll ensure you can’t survive.”

He was not spreading panic indiscriminately.

Every little bit adds up.

Su can’t escape the formation of the River of Destiny regardless.

It’s better to improve his cultivation; he might find a glimmer of hope.

After saying this, he thought a little and continued to convey: “The cultivation path, don’t focus on depth, but instead cultivate breadth. When one day your cultivation speed gradually slows down, it means you’re nearing success and have a chance to get away.”

Depth is naturally continuing to cultivate along the “tributary,” eventually becoming nourishment.

Breadth is extending cultivation in the direction of Causality Dao.

Perhaps, one can tread again on the path of Causality Dao.

Now, the River of Destiny that hasn’t fully formed might not be able to outperform Causality Dao.

Of course, this is merely Wang Sheng’s conjecture, also a kind of experiment.

To see if Su’s cultivation along the breadth path can affect Causality Dao and impact the formation of the River of Destiny.

The outcome depends on Su’s choices.

Su received his hint and fell silent.

“Cultivate breadth…”

He could understand what it meant, simply put, it meant stopping the current cultivation and cultivating a route similar to the current path.

But he couldn’t confirm if this was true.

After all, he is only at the Thirteen Realms now and cannot comprehend the existence of the River of Destiny.

Wang Sheng also did not bother him.

Whether Su can escape the influence of Causality Dao doesn’t make much difference to him.

If not, he continues to observe the formation process of the River of Destiny.

If so, he still checks how the River of Destiny is impacted.

Regardless of the outcome, time is needed.

He continues to seek special cultivators.

In the Primordial Ancestor World, there are countless life forms, more than in any starry sky.

But geniuses who stand out are always at the top of the pyramid.

In a few years, he found five targets.

Two of them are confirmed; both are at the Twelfth Realm. Upon investigation, their cultivation speed is even faster than when at the Tenth Realm.

Not only that, but Wang Sheng also calculated that these two bear considerable causality.

“Not a teacher-student bond, but undoubtedly, the greatest causality for these two is the ability to enter the Starry Sky Palace or Destiny Palace, which is a destined bond.” According to the rules of the Starry Sky Palace and Destiny Palace, entering at the Twelfth Realm is not easy, but these two have a destined bond and are predestined to enter these top forces. Coupled with their abnormal cultivation speed, they can be completely confirmed as similar cultivators to Su.

As for the other three, their cultivation time isn’t enough, and they are extremely weak cultivators, making it difficult to determine the specifics of their cultivation speed.

What allowed him to determine the target is the causality on the three.

But causality is something even ordinary geniuses have; it’s not the most unique, so more confirmation is needed.

“Heavenly planned opportunities with causality, since that’s the case, let me partake too!”

Thus, many “protagonists” emerged in the Primordial Ancestor World.

They possessed destined opportunities, along with the additional fortune provided by Wang Sheng.

Before long, they quickly rose; at low realms, they ascended one realm per year.

Even when reaching the eighth or ninth realms, advancing one realm in a dozen years is not worse than Su at the time.

Aside from leaving a trace of divine thought, Wang Sheng generally did not intervene.

He allowed these “chosen ones” to grow on their own.

Meanwhile, he wandered through the entire Primordial Ancestor World, constantly searching for similar fated individuals.

In a blink, tens of thousands of years passed.

To the present Wang Sheng, tens of thousands of years couldn’t bring significant change to his cultivation.

He kept searching all along.

“Unfortunately, after the initial period, it becomes increasingly difficult to find similar cultivators later, not knowing if they truly don’t exist or are hiding deeper.”

Over tens of thousands of years, he found more than a hundred cultivators similar to Su in the Primordial Ancestor World.

With his assistance, apart from a few, most of the cultivators reached the Twelfth Realm.

As for those already at the Twelfth Realm, they are about to step into the Thirteen Realms.

Through leaving divine thought within these cultivators, he also saw the still obscure River of Destiny.

For these people, Wang Sheng never intervened like he did with Su.

After tens of thousands of years, he has always observed silently.

Used several perspectives to watch the evolution of the River of Destiny.

“Indeed, the more angles I watch, the clearer the evolution becomes. What was indistinct before is now much clearer. But to fully discern the trajectory, other people need to cultivate to higher realms. The next opening of the Primordial Ancestor Ceremony should reveal something.”

What he seeks is the evolutionary trajectory of the River of Destiny.

And then he tries this trajectory on the Destiny Dao he created.

As long as it succeeds, it will benefit him immeasurably.

“The number of abnormal geniuses is temporarily sufficient, and increasingly difficult to find. Next, I don’t need to search personally. Given this, I’ll establish a force.”

Thus, silently and without a trace, another behemoth force rose within the Primordial Ancestor World, named the Lifeless Sect.

The Lifeless Sect only accepts prodigies.

Prodigies joining it need not worry about resources; as long as they complete tasks, earn points, they can exchange for any known resource.

Nor do they need to fear offending prodigies from other major forces; the Lifeless Sect will protect, requiring them only to focus on cultivation.

However, the admission standards are extremely strict; it’s not for the average person.

Though hidden in the shadows, it rapidly developed in mere tens of thousands of years.

The initial batch of geniuses also reached the Thirteen Realms.

That’s how another Primordial Ancestor Ceremony began.

The prodigies of the Lifeless Sect received a collective optional task.

[Join the Destiny Palace or Starry Sky Palace.]

Starry Sky Palace and Destiny Palace in the Primordial Ancestor World are known to virtually everyone.

The prodigies of the Lifeless Sect saw this task and collectively fell silent.

The task rewards are high, but they also had to ponder what this task signifies.

While on the other side, Wang Sheng, who casually issued the task, did not care about these prodigies’ thoughts.

He had more important matters to attend to.

Ten thousand years later, he observed the formation trajectory of the River of Destiny, finally gaining certain results.
