Chapter 1117: Chapter 971: Origin Soul Method

"Indeed, another flying sword of the Void Attribute from the Immortals."

"Together with the earlier one of the Fire Attribute, this is truly a bountiful harvest."

Fang Xi’s face was brimming with a smile.

After achieving the ’One Becomes Three Clears’, he and his external incarnation became one and the same.

At this moment, looking at different versions of himself from three angles was an extremely novel experience.

Ever since he sent an Illusionary True Spirit to that particular Big Thousand World, his true self had nothing to do aside from cultivating the ’Earth Immortal Undying Skills’ every day, and had already refined the other two major Illusionary True Spirits.

One of the external incarnations was naturally sent to the True Immortal Realm early on, and while teaching his little disciple Fang Xian, he didn’t forget to occasionally show his presence at the headquarters of the Abundant Karma House in Mount Fengxue.

The other external incarnation was entrusted with the ’Mountain Pearl’, slightly cultivated for a while, and then easily attained the realm of True Immortal of Origin Soul. Then, as an extra domain Sky Demon, it just supported that most unfortunate of the external incarnations.

"Although it was somewhat reckless, it indeed was a huge harvest, having snatched two immortal swords."

Fang Xi smiled faintly, "When the time comes, refining the Dragon Turtle Inner Pill into the Central Shu Sword’s second Origin Soul, I will have the magic power of an Individual Immortal."

"And that ’Si Chen Sword’, I will inscribe it with numerous prohibitions using my true self’s magic power, so it will have the hope of being promoted to a Pure Yang Treasure, that is, an Immortal Weapon."

"Finding three swords all at once for the Eight Gates Sword Array, the resources of that world are indeed plentiful, worthy of being a Big Thousand World!"

Although he had robbed the Shu Mountain Sect of its flying sword, Fang Xi was not afraid of the karma that would surely entangle him in the future.

It was merely a loss of an external incarnation, after all.

He had already made a huge profit, so it was feasible to reinvest just a little more.

At this moment, with a beckoning hand, two flying swords fell into his palm.

The flying swords of Shu Mountain each had their own design; this Fire Cloud Sword had an ancient shape, with layers upon layers of red clouds on the sword’s body.

However, it was firmly bound by Fang Xi’s great magic power and could not stretch at all.

What about the ’Taiyi Invisible Sword’?

This sword, shapeless and formless, combined with the Shu Mountain Sect’s unique sword spell, arrived without a shadow and left without a trace... It had forged a formidable reputation in the Cultivation World.

In terms of design, it was like a sheet of ice shaped as a shuttle, sharp at both ends, with the sword light extraordinarily agile. Even now, without its master’s control, it still whizzed through the air.

"The Invisible Sword..."

As Fang Xi caressed this Taiyi Invisible Sword, his face revealed a thoughtful expression: "The formlessness prohibition on this sword is quite extraordinary. If I could comprehend a bit of it, even if I can’t be as sharp as the Shu Mountain Sect’s Invisible Sword Spell, I could still create some formless magic spells..."

"The external incarnation of the Central Shu Sword that follows the Dao of the Five Elements has a decent aptitude for thunder magic... If combined with the formlessness prohibition, it should indeed be possible to comprehend a new ’Invisible Divine Thunder’..."

When the time comes, with the Five Elements Divine Thunder covering the skies and the Invisible Divine Thunder secretly hidden within, colorless and formless, any mysterious sect’s expert or mighty figure of the Demon Path might be caught off guard and be struck to death by the thunderbolts!

"Now that the attributes of Void and Time are in place, only the flying sword with the Life and Death attribute is missing."

Fang Xi felt somewhat regretful.

The way of Life and Death includes the transformation of movement and stillness, Yin and Yang, and is the perfect conductor for blending Time and Space."

Therefore, this flying sword of the Life and Death attribute is indeed very important.

Within that Big Thousand World of Shu Mountain, there are countless flying swords of the Five Elements attributes, but those with the Life and Death attribute are quite rare.

"Among the many comprehensions of the laws, surprisingly, it’s the Law of Life and Death that still leads the way..."

Fang Xi thought about this and was equally speechless.

"Could it be that in the future, I will Combine Taoist with the ’Law of Life and Death’?"

"After becoming a Prime Taoist Master, how should I proceed with my cultivation?"

He had a vague feeling that this would determine his path in the days to come.

"Fortunately, the longevity of an immortal is limitless. There’s no need to hurry; I can just wait patiently for the right opportunity..."

Fang Xi opened Xin Hongyun’s treasure bag and rummaged through it, eventually taking a golden Heavenly Book into his hands.

"The Earth Origin Gold Book? It has finally fallen into my hands again."

He smiled slightly and began to slowly turn the pages from the first to the last.

The Earth Origin Gold Book guided the cultivation of ’Earth Chakra Origin Truth’ magic power. Sword Immortal level magic power required nine transformations, each increasing the potency of the Taoist cultivation massively.

In Fang Xi’s view, one transformation of magic power was equivalent to breaking through from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation, or even from Core Formation to Nascent Soul...

Moreover, the further one goes, the harder it gets, comparable to progressing from Integration to Mahayana!

Of course, the most difficult step was cultivating the Origin Soul and achieving the fruition of an Individual Immortal. And the subsequent teachings for cultivating the Origin Soul, going from Individual Immortal to Earth Immortal!

"There are so many different types of Origin Souls in that Big Thousand World..."

After flipping through the Earth Origin Gold Book, Fang Xi felt quite moved.

In that world of Shu Mountain, just the sidestream Origin Souls alone included ’Three Corpses Origin Soul’, ’Seven Luminaries Origin Soul’, ’Demon Flame Origin Soul’, ’Water Mystery Origin Soul’, and many other kinds.

Of course, the reason why they’re considered sidestream is because the Origin Souls they cultivate have flaws, and they generally cannot advance further.

The Origin Soul of the Sky Demon from the Demon Path, however, had another layer of mystery. It was about entrusting one’s own Origin Soul to the Life-bound Divine Demon, refining a Divine Demon undying body, which in a way, took a different path from the Buddhism Sect.

As for the genuine mystical sect’s Taoist Origin Souls, that’s yet another story.

"According to the Earth Origin Gold Book, by cultivating ’Earth Chakra Origin Truth’ magic power and going through nine magic power transformations to purge the impurities, one can attempt to refine the ’Earth Chakra Origin Soul’, achieving the fruition of an Individual Immortal..."

"If I continue to accumulate good deeds and achieve internal and external perfection, according to what the Gold Book says, I can push the ’Earth Chakra Origin Soul’ one step further, and progress one grade to the fruition of an Earth Immortal."

"If I obtain the lower volume of ’The Book of Purple Mansion’ and learn the ’Purple Green Immortal Seal’ within, I can condense the ’Purple Green Immortal Light,’ which will remove a layer of impurities and Karma from the ’Earth Chakra Origin Truth,’ transforming it into the ’Mysterious Capital Origin Soul’!"

This ’Mysterious Capital Origin Soul’ represents the Fruition of a Heavenly Immortal, and it is unfathomably profound.

With this one could ascend to the Heavenly Realm, free and unrestrained, without disasters or tribulations, enjoying long life!

"Both the ’Earth Origin Gold Book’ and the ’The Book of Purple Mansion’ are greatly related to the Shu Mountain Sect, and this is the reason why Xin Hongyun has relentlessly sought them, sacrificing the fruition of ten lifetimes..."

Fang Xi quietly pondered.

The world where the Shu Mountain Sect was located indeed had different cultivation methods compared to the True Immortal Realm.

Not to mention those below the rank of Sword Immortal.

Above the Sword Immortals, refining the Origin Soul can confer longevity, but one must still endure the torments of disaster and tribulation.

In essence, their Origin Souls should be quite similar to those of the True Immortals of Origin Soul in this world, only slightly inferior in terms of magic power.

After all, a lavish accumulation of resources can be quite formidable.

"Since the essence of the Origin Souls are the same, such methods of cultivating the Origin Soul should be well-suited for me..."

Fang Xi thought of the many Immortals in the True Immortal Realm.

As for a Heavenly Immortal, he had no knowledge yet.

But once Earth Immortals, Human Immortals, Divine Immortals, and Ghost Immortals were achieved, their Origin Souls would be fixed, making it extremely difficult to further improve.

The so-called ’methods of cultivating the Origin Soul’ had never even been heard of!

In rumors, only some extremely rare ’Taoist Cultivation Pills’ could enhance the origin of the Origin Soul, making it more potent.

’The Origin Soul determines the Divine Consciousness of the Immortal, which is quite important... But even the ’Evergreen Skills’ merely use the combination of the Earth Immortal and the Life-bound Spiritual Root to slightly nourish it.’"

’Such methods of cultivating the Origin Soul are very worthy of reference...’

’My own Origin Soul, even though it has not been enhanced, can now compare to an Earth Immortal in that other world, and not just any ordinary Earth Immortal!’

’To gain some insight, I’m afraid I need the law of a Heavenly Immortal, acquiring things like the Purple Green Immortal Seal, Tushita True Decree, Taiyi True Talisman, Maharishi Heavenly Seal, Yan Huang Divine Talisman, and so on...’

The latter are the essences contained within the core teachings of that world’s orthodox mysterious sects.

Fang Xi was naturally familiar with them as if thunder had pierced his ears, yet he had access to only one side.

"If even Heavenly Immortals are like this... I wonder what kind of scene a Gold Immortal in the rumors would present?"

"Even without the ways of Gold Immortals or Heavenly Immortals... Merely the methods of cultivating the Origin Soul could potentially allow Divine Immortals and Ghost Immortals to elevate their immortal grade... In this way, the structure of the True Immortal Realm would greatly change."

Immortals have endless lifespans, and those Divine Immortals and Ghost Immortals are indeed exceptional beings of their generation; it’s just a pity that a single misstep doomed them to never rise again.

Just like in the great world where the Shu Mountain Sect resides, they’ve entered a side path!

If they knew that there was a way to improve their Immortal Grade, they would surely go mad!

If I put my mind to it, I could instantly establish a force more massive than ’Abundant Karma House’ by tenfold or a hundredfold!

"It’s just that doing so would inevitably attract more covetous gazes and does not conform to my way of handling affairs... After all, the True Immortal Realm does have a Prime Taoist Master!"

"But regardless, that great world of the other side needs a greater investment."

He put away two Immortal-grade flying swords, and a fist-sized Dragon Turtle Inner Pill appeared, floating.

"After the sacrificial refining of the second Origin Soul, the incarnation of Central Shu Sword at least possesses the magic power of an Individual Immortal! Even in that big world of the other side, he would be quite a character."

In that great world, the only true refiner of the Origin Soul Fang Xi had encountered so far was the ’Monk Di Xin.’

"The mantra for sacrificially refining the second Origin Soul is not hard... It’s included in the ’Earth Origin Gold Book.’

"In fact, the second Origin Soul is extremely difficult to refine, and usually only those above Scattered Immortals would attempt it."

Fang Xi called forth the Externalization of Central Shu Sword.

This incarnation was majestic and imposing, exuding a sharp aura all around.

"This time for the sacrificial refining, we shall primarily use the laws of that other world."

Fang Xi’s original body gave a slight smile, sitting cross-legged to the side, with the ’Si Chen Sword’ still placed on his knees.

The Externalization had once exhausted its magic power to barely induce the sword’s material transformation once, but in the hands of the original body, it effortlessly shifted from solid and tangible to formless and intangible... in a blink, completing three cycles!

"Such a flying sword, if dual-refined in form and substance for more than nine times, could be considered a Pure Yang Treasure and be of great use."

For the original body, this was not difficult, only consuming some magic power.

He chuckled lightly, the power of the Spirit Domain descending above his head, instantly turning the Mother Qi of All Woods into a cyan celebrating cloud.

Si Chen Sword chimed crisply, flying into the cyan cloud. The sword’s body gradually started to become transparent...

The Externalization, on the other hand, was making magic spells with one hand, and beckoning towards the Dragon Turtle Inner Pill.

This Inner Pill immediately came before it.

"The Second Origin Soul Technique!"

He made magic spells with both hands, and a mysterious air emerged around him, entering the Dragon Turtle Inner Pill, sealing all its aura.

Then, streaks of strange radiance darted out from the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose of the Externalization, like mischievous little snakes, burrowing into the Inner Pill.

In an instant, the Inner Pill was enveloped in a bright white light...
