All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes

Chapter 975: Chapter 253: Progress of Dao Becoming Flesh

Unlike the Concentrated Divine Intent, which does not inherently possess power, the Fate Pattern is born with a certain amount of power. Inside, it also carries either a Divine Skill or a cultivation technique. Even the weakest Mortal Fate, upon awakening, can grant the holder extraordinary special abilities.

Divine Intention requires the holder to draw Spiritual Energy themselves, while the Fate Pattern inherently has the ability to absorb Spiritual Energy and can filter Demonic Qi, giving rise to an endless array of wondrous abilities, far surpassing Divine Intention.

But in essence, they’re the same.

Divine Intention is just like a miniature adolescent version of a Fate Pattern.

Heaven’s Will is stronger, possessing unlimited power, capable of using the whole of Embracing the Void as a target, granting each eligible person their corresponding Fate Pattern!

"The Heaven of Heaven’s Mandate is the Heavenly Dao’s Heaven..."

An Jing realized in his heart, "Could it be that each Divine Power possessed by the Heavenly Destiny is perhaps a part of the power of the Heavenly Dao?"

"That’s it, that’s it, indeed it is!"

Having understood this point, An Jing turned back to examine the Divine Skills he possessed.

Could Coalescing Qi into Soldiers not be analogous to the ’Creation’ method of the natural Heavenly Dao that coalesces Natural Treasures, Heavenly Talent and Earthly Treasure, and Earth Vein Divine Materials?

Dissolving Troops into Spirit is likewise a process of deconstructing all things, transforming them into pure spirituality, while at the same time bestowing certain Heavenly Talent and Earthly Treasure with spirituality, allowing them to awaken into Spiritual Wisdom!

Concentrated Divine Intent grants all beings divine power and strength, known as ’Mana’.

Following this, the Age Suppressing Two Star Divine Abilities—though An Jing himself has not yet attained it—according to Gu Yeqi’s way of "Heaven and Earth Skills," fundamentally rely on borrowing from fate, likely relate to "Fate and Fortune" and "Life and Death in the Netherworld."

Creation, Spiritual Wisdom, Mana, Fate and Fortune, Life and Death... along with the Great Origin Unlimited Power represented by the Sun, the powers mastered by the Heavenly Dao are becoming clear!

"Let me try with you all again!"

Having grasped these insights, An Jing also roughly understood why the Heavenly Origin Heavenly Dao wanted to bestow this Divine Skill upon him through the Heavenly Tribulation—could it be that this Heavenly Origin Heavenly Dao is envious of Embracing the Void’s Fate Pattern system, urging An Jing to spread more Martial Arts?

The power of the Heavenly Origin Heavenly Dao is clearly inferior to Embracing the Void’s, likely without the means to fully create an entire Fate Pattern system. Hence, it directly gives An Jing related powers, letting this otherworldly Heavenly Mandate work for it.

If that’s the case, An Jing doesn’t mind working for a boss who advances the salary first to explore the work. He called over Huo Qing and Nian Quan to continue testing various cultivation techniques.

The results were more or less as An Jing anticipated: Divine Intention and Fate Pattern are alike, only the suitable can bear them. Nian Quan could bear part of the Tranquil Sword Manual, Huo Qing could bear part of the Taibai Divine Prohibition, the former due to sword talent, the latter due to some degree of body refinement ability, but neither could cultivate to the highest level.

What was particularly intriguing was that the Divine Intention of the Heaven-Human Insight truly could be borne by anyone, just as that Supreme Celestial once said, this cultivation technique was prepared for everyone.

From this point, An Jing also understood what the essence of Da Chen’s Ascension Officer System was.

"My Concentrated Divine Intent is the adolescent version of a Fate Pattern, then the Ascension Officer is at least a mature phase Fate Pattern—the Heavenly Dao’s is the complete version, perhaps even the ultimate version."

"An Jing, your ability is quite miraculous!"

Although Huo Qing didn’t know An Jing was a Heavenly Mandate, he fully understood the specialty of the Concentrated Divine Intent. He excitedly said, "But how come only you’re analyzing for us one-sidedly? While our insights might not be as good as yours and our thinking simpler, I think many hands make light work. Our insights might not be great, but they could still give you some inspiration!"

"This ability... I guess I haven’t developed it yet."

Hearing this, An Jing paused.

With his wisdom, upon hearing Huo Qing’s words, he immediately realized how to receive feedback.

Just like a Fate Pattern.

Death.

When a Divine Intention is borne by someone, if the bearer dies, the Divine Intention will absorb the insights of the bearer and return to An Jing.

Just like the Heavenly Dao reclaiming a Fate Pattern.

And the reason why the past Seven Calamities can grow so rapidly is clear. It turns out that’s how it was.

An Jing couldn’t help but fall silent. Having lost all loved ones, lost all comrades, fueling everything with the fire of hatred... The Seven Fiend Tribulation is such a calamity of disaster, igniting itself and then everything around it, eventually igniting the entire world.

Nian Quan glanced pensively at the silent An Jing.

Truth be told, An Jing truly neither knows how to, nor cares to, pretend. The strong are always this way. He could tell that An Jing already knew how to ’share insights.’

However, the price is one that even someone as strong as he is unwilling to pay.

And Elder Xi Yi observed the entire process.

He knew An Jing was a Heavenly Mandate, and he also knew this was likely the Heavenly Mandate Divine Power.

With his understanding of the Pure Yang Realm and Divine Mandate in relation to the Fate Pattern, he vaguely guessed the essence of An Jing’s Divine Skill, and possibly the method of reclaiming the insights.

This being the case, if Cheng Guang Ancient Ancestor and Chenyin cannot successfully extend their lives, perhaps let An Jing use this Divine Skill to try letting the two of them pass on insights to An Jing... In this way, An Jing should also be able to accept it, and the Ancestor and Chenyin will surely gladly agree.

Xi Yi’s thinking is typical of almost all Martial Artists in Embracing the Void, and even the Heavenly Mandate isn’t exempt, for this is theoretically the safest and most reliable, and the best growth route.

But, this is merely the common thought and route of an ordinary Heavenly Mandate.

An Jing is not an ordinary Heavenly Mandate nor is he typical of the Seven Fiend Tribulation.

Not to mention if he could even help the Ancestor extend life successfully. In a moment, he thought of another method entirely.

"Hey."

An Jing’s mind flashed: "When a person dies, they receive feedback of insight, so what about my Mirror Self?"

"Although the Mirror Self doesn’t provide any extra or unique insights, it can, like me, perfectly carry all my divine abilities — what if I entrust my divine intention to my Mirror Self?"

Without any hesitation, An Jing activated his Life Observation Eyes and immediately summoned his Mirror Self at the spot.

Then, under everyone’s dazzled gaze, An Jing transferred a portion of the divine intention of all his cultivation techniques onto his Mirror Self!

However, it was somewhat regrettable that the Mirror Self bearing An Jing’s divine intention didn’t exhibit any special powers.

Because the Mirror Self inherently possessed all An Jing’s divine abilities, adding the divine intention didn’t cause any changes.

"It seems that although the Mirror Self is mysterious, it’s not to the extent that it can cheat in the Heavenly Destiny Divine Power."

An Jing felt a bit regretful but carefully observed his Mirror Self.

Then, he noticed something was off!

"Oh?"

An Jing stepped forward to closely examine his Mirror Self and realized: "The trajectory of my Mirror Self’s operation in the Spiritual Fiend divine power has become... clearer?"

"Moreover, my control over the divine abilities of the Mirror Self has become more precise... even surpassing my control over my own body!"

An Jing’s control over his physique and divine abilities, while extremely meticulous, still allowed for minor permissible errors.

Because among his many divine abilities and cultivation methods, even without mutual conflict, simultaneous operation might somewhat affect each other.

Additionally, An Jing’s body continues to cultivate autonomously even during rest or dreams, and with the perpetual change of Spiritual Fiend within him, it’s challenging to stabilize in a moment to observe the body’s condition.

Yet, the Mirror Self at this moment was different — the divine intention bestowed by An Jing essentially served as divine ability templates, each template constraining the divine abilities, to the extent that the Mirror Self became like a fixed model for divine abilities that could be "anchored" in place.

This brought forth a perfect specimen of An Jing’s divine abilities!

An Jing could hold his breath, calmly adjusting various details of the Mirror Self, analyzing conflicts and contradictions in his body’s divine abilities and cultivation methods bit by bit... and then slowly blend and correct them!

"Interesting!"

Now, intrigued, An Jing operated his Mirror Self’s divine abilities, attempting to simultaneously run ’Supreme Celestial True Solution’ and ’Taibai Luminous Godly Ban’ — which had happened before, but typically one was primary, the other secondary, and consumed double the Spiritual Fiend while achieving an effect of only 1.5.

Despite being an eruption, the synergy of two seventh-tier techniques couldn’t achieve a twosquared effect; instead, it weakened it, which was imperfect.

Of course, An Jing also knew that forcing such an operation might severely injure the fundamental Yuan Qi, even affecting his hands!

Therefore, An Jing planned to attempt it on the Mirror Self!

Bang!

Sure enough, after simultaneously high-frequency running the dual techniques for twenty breaths, the Mirror Self abruptly exploded, dispersing into fragments of Spiritual Light everywhere.

Numerous divine intentions shot out, then quickly gathered towards An Jing.

The divine intention returned to the original body; An Jing’s eyes gleamed with a series of insights as he stood up, slightly enlightened: "I see — the error lies here! When Supreme Celestial True Solution operates, it has a promoting role in reverting the bloodline of the flesh, affecting one’s physique and aptitude, yet during this time, Taibai Luminous Godly Ban’s Magic Prohibition also fully activates, interfering with the Heaven-Man True Solution’s transformation."

"Both techniques can exclude external toxins, and within that instant, they deem each other as external toxins. When fully activated, the consumption skyrockets, even heavily damaging my robust foundation. If an ordinary person attempted it, they’d explode within two breaths, not to mention twenty!"

As An Jing’s past life described it, it was like two antivirus programs battling each other on the same computer, deleting in a conflicting manner; high-level cultivation methods once conflicting at the core imply raising internal parasites for the cultivator. An Jing’s ability to cultivate numerous techniques without making errors is firstly due to his exceptional aptitude, secondly having trained in Martial Arts in a previous life, instinctively knowing which forces to prioritize during operation, hence avoiding issues.

But this is not a long-term solution.

To truly solve the problem, one must either abandon other techniques and focus on one,

or nurture a hundred classics, combining shared wisdom, to create a personal cultivation method! _{fre.ewebnov el.com}

The former is efficient, safe, and stable. The latter, like An Jing’s Mirror Self, with even a slight error, results in total self-destruction — and even then, understanding the cause is not guaranteed.

Yet An Jing is different.

It’s his Mirror Self experiencing the explosion.

Moreover, he can gain feedback from the Mirror Self!

"Thank you, Huo Qing!"

As Huo Qing pointed to himself in puzzlement with a ’me?’ expression, An Jing excitedly returned to the Seclusion Room, based on the feedback from his Mirror Self, began fine-tuning the circulation of Spiritual Fiends within his body, adjusting various details of his Inner Array Realm.

If the heavens can accommodate countless living beings to exist and operate normally, thus achieving the ’Heavenly Dao,’ then the myriad cultivation techniques derived from the heavens naturally may operate within one’s internal Small World, thereby integrating perfectly to form a ’Heavenly Dao of the Inner Array Realm.’

This is undeniably the correct path, but too arduous, even the Heavenly Mandate may not achieve it.

Yet An Jing can.

And at this moment, An Jing also detected.

With his adjustment of internal technique conflicts, the seventh divine abnormality that had shown no progress, nearly forgotten by him...

[Dao Becoming Flesh]

Its progress began showing a hint of relaxation!
