Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme Chapter 275 – Nascent Soul_3

Chapter 275: Chapter 183: Nascent Soul_3

In the entire Cultivation Realm, millions of Cultivators stood before him as if they were completely naked—not just naked, but even more vulnerable, without a single secret left concealed. Inside and out, everything was laid bare.

This feeling was incredibly terrifying, especially for someone like him who harbored a great secret and yet was weak in strength.

The waters of the Cultivation World were too deep; there could exist Mahayana True Immortals, and among them, there might be sages versed in the secrets of heaven.

If he were to expose himself, he would certainly face annihilation.

Therefore, Xu Yang, at the first opportunity, sent back the Escaping One.

With this layer of protection, his sense of security greatly increased, and he had far fewer concerns in his actions.

“Nascent Soul, Nascent Soul!”

Atop the Nine Ceremony High Altar, Xu Yang opened his eyes, still as calm as an ancient well. Thê sourc𝗲 of this conte/nt n/o/v/(𝒆l)bi((n))

The Luotian Dajiao, advancing to Nascent Soul, was a process he couldn’t be more familiar with. He had personally used it twice in the World of Dao and Law, and afterward, the Wandao School had conducted it over a thousand times; he had thoroughly researched it, with the chance of failure tending towards zero. There was nothing to be nervous about.

Now, the problem was that he could only advance half of his Nascent Soul, no—the Seventh Realm!

His current level of Cultivation, the Four Law Fruits, was the perfect crystallization of four different systems.

However, these four systems were not altogether complete.

The most refined among them was the Cultivation Skill of the Cultivation World, which drew in the Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit to transform into the Cultivator’s Mana and condense the Yuan Spirit Golden Core. The highest Mana Point at present was the Seventh Realm, which was also the skill of the Nascent Soul.

Next was the ancient Taoism of the World of Dao and Law that could similarly absorb the Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit to become the Cultivator’s Mana. Apart from the Yuan Spirit Golden Core, this skill also refined the Divine Soul. The highest realm of the Heavenly Master’s skill was also the Nascent Soul of the Seventh Realm.

Both systems were the results of Xu Yang combining his own learning, along with the research outcomes from the Wandao School.

They both stopped at the Nascent Soul skill of the Seventh Realm without extending into the Eighth Realm of Divinity Transformation.

It was so with the Yuanspirit Taoism; even less satisfactory were the Mysterious Skill of the Martial Path and External Body Training.

The basis of Xu Yang’s martial studies came firstly from the collective wisdom of various families from Great Zhou and Great Tang, and secondly from the transformative powers of the War God’s Atlas.

The latter was of immense importance.

In the world of Great Tang, during the last decade, his enlightenment within the Temple of War God was an important reason for the subsequent realms in the Martial Path system.

The War God’s Atlas could be described as a supreme Mysterious Skill. Even with Xu Yang’s current perspective, it still seemed like a Heaven Reaching creation.

He managed to extend the Martial Path system to the Six Yuan Core Realm, which was comparable to the Golden Core of the Yuanspirit Cultivation, partly thanks to the collective wisdom and his past enlightenment of the War God’s Atlas, which granted him a portion of its legacy.

Regrettably, his level was too low back then, and the insights he gained were limited. Extending the Martial Path system to the Sixth Realm was his limit. He had no clue about the Seventh Realm technique, and progress at the Wandao School was also very slow.

“If there’s a chance to return to the Great Tang world, I must find a way to take down that Temple of War God,” he thought.

“No, maybe even now, subsequent Martial Artists in Great Tang have developed higher Martial Path realms based on the War God’s Atlas.”

“The Martial Path system must be completed!”

Xu Yang sighed, feeling helpless.

Unable to mark Great Tang during his Divine Travel Through Worlds.

Unsure if he would ever see the War God’s Atlas again.

Xu Yang valued the Martial Path system highly; after all, it was the foundation of his rise.

The most important aspect was that the Martial Path system was not limited by Spiritual Roots and, together with his Farming Great Law, was a significant tool for expanding his influence. If his progress halted there, it would indeed be regrettable.

Just as with the Martial Path system, the Body Training Skill was in a similar predicament.

The Body Training skill was a method he deduced in the Black Water World, drawing on the body of a dragonfish and the Martial Path Body Training skill, carrying a flavor of “life evolution.”

Unfortunately, it was also incomplete, breaking down midway. Although he also managed to reluctantly deduce the Six Realm Yuan Fetus Skill, the road ahead was arduous, and the potential was limited.

Therefore, at present, Xu Yang could only achieve the Nascent Soul of the Seventh Realm using the two systems of Daoist Mana and Yuanspirit. The Martial Path Body Training would fall a realm short, awaiting the day the system was complete.

“The journey is still long and arduous!”

“But… it is also the joy!”

Xu Yang smiled, momentarily setting these thoughts aside, focusing his entire being on preparing for his breakthrough.

The Luotian Dajiao, advancing into the Nascent Soul realm, despite being a well-trodden path, could not be taken lightly.

Especially at the final moment, when success is achieved.

Although both realms were at the Seventh Realm, the Nascent Soul of this world was different from the Heavenly Masters of the World of Dao and Law.

In the World of Dao and Law, attaining the rank of Heavenly Master, unless one was a Demon or Evil Cultivator, would not lead to being struck by lightning.

But in this world, any Cultivator, regardless of their Cultivation technique or physical prowess, would have to face the Heavenly Tribulation as soon as they succeeded in condensing their Nascent Soul.

From the Nascent Soul onwards, there would be a Heavenly Tribulation descending. Divinity Transformation, Return to Void, Integration Mahayana, all the way to the final Crossing the Tribulation for Ascension—each realm, each milestone, faced a trial by lightning. Beyond the lightning tribulation lay other tribulations: of man, of heart, of demons, and an array of challenges.

Who knows how many Cultivators, after arduous Cultivation and achievement, ultimately perished under the Heavenly Tribulation.

Heavenly Tribulation, although Xu Yang had no fear of it, this lack of fear did not mean he did not take it seriously.

Even when hunting a rabbit, a lion must use all its strength!

He was a very serious person, always treating everything he faced with the utmost diligence.
