Superhumans of the Dome City
Chapter 455 - 455 3 Divine Communication Skill Part 1

455: Chapter 3 Divine Communication Skill (Part 1) 455: Chapter 3 Divine Communication Skill (Part 1) “Is there any relation between Divine Communication and curing malicious transformations?” Gongsun Ce asked.

“Nonsense, if you are strong enough, why worry about external corrosion?” Yan Qi scoffed, “If it were me talking face to face with that man in gray for a year, it wouldn’t harm a fraction of my spiritual energy!”

You’re incredible, count you formidable, fine then.

“How am I supposed to cultivate Divine Communication when I have no basic knowledge?

Fast track from zero knowledge?”

“Bullshit zero knowledge, have you forgotten everything taught to you after you came back?

What a pig’s brain?”

Gongsun Ce was dumbfounded, “Just practice handprints, memorize ancient texts, and draw arrays?”

Yan Qi completely ignored him this time.

Gongsun Ce asked, dejected, “You must at least tell me what this Divine Communication Realm is?

I can see that only at this step does the Impermanence Skill form combat power, but no one has ever explained to me what Divine Communication truly means.”

Yan Qi, propping his face with his fist, said, “You’ve fought so many Divine Communication Mages and still have no clue?

Start with your understanding.”

An Impermanence Law Enforcer in the Spirit Illumination Realm simply lights up the Spirit Light, those in the Clarity Realm can use basic runes and the Heart Phase Weapon, but only in the Divine Communication Realm, do the Impermanence Law Enforcers truly possess their “abilities.” To contemplate the Divine Communication Skill, one should start from this “ability,” and the basic idea, is none other than what Mr.

Shiyu taught.

Gongsun Ce, recalling past opponents, slowly said, “The Divine Communication Skill is a unique ability specific to Impermanence Law Enforcers.

The manifestation, appearance, and mechanics of this special ability are closely related to the thoughts, prayers, and worldview or life views entrenched in the Divine Communication Skill – it can be said, deciphering the Divine Communication Skill concept is tantamount to understanding the person.

If manifestations are the materialization of the spiritual world, then Divine Communication is the emphasis of a certain quality of the mind.

Unlike manifestations that have specific appearances or domains, Divine Communication Skill may not have a fixed form; it could be a flower, a snake, or even a gesture or a rule…”

Gongsun Ce concluded, “As for the means that truly allows the spirit to affect the real world, it should be what He referred to as Spirit Light Divine Transformation, which is the essence of the Divine Communication Skill.”

Yan Qi slapped the armrest of the chair, laughing, “Mr.

Shiyu, know why I like teaching him?

It saves trouble!”

Lianyi thought that indeed saves trouble.

You don’t even need to teach the basics anymore, Gongsun is almost self-taught.

“This basic concept I understand clearly, but if you don’t teach me the specific steps, I’m still blindly groping,” said Gongsun Ce, “What is Spirit Light Divine Transformation?”

Yan Qi waved his hand, “You’ve been on Zero Island for so long and still can’t figure it out?

Mull over it yourself!”

If your teacher had dared to teach you like this, I’d write my name backward.

Divine Transformation… God…

Speaking of gods, his first thought was naturally the Huojin God.

The King of Destiny, an exceptional oddity, should be excluded from consideration, followed by Yidou Nengmai, the God of Good Fortune…

Lady Fox is the God of Commerce, Sakura Dance is the God of Zero Island…

Looking at smaller examples, there’s the Wandering God who causes people to get lost, the hungry sprite in a rush to eat, the Sea Strange God who gives prophecies, and other commonplace Hidden Gods…

If speaking of their common traits…

A flash of insight struck Gongsun Ce, “A special kind of obsession?

This obsession affects their appearance and abilities and decides their way of living?”

“Not bad for a visit,” the painter tapped the armrest with a finger, “What is a deity?

In religious legends and folk customs, life forms widely believed to have specific duties and symbols are commonly referred to as deities.

The fundamental difference between gods and humans is not whether they have personal feelings or human-like appearance, but whether their powers have corresponding symbols.

To put it in terms you can understand, it’s the power brought by obsession.”

Yan Qi stood up from the Grand Master’s chair, hands behind his back, saying, “Now do you understand what Spirit Light Divine Transformation is?

It’s about making your spirit akin to these so-called deities, embedding an obsession into your Spirit Light, refining it, scorching it, letting it merge completely with your Spirit Light.

Let the Spirit Light strengthen because of this obsession, become distorted through this strength, eventually breaking free of the physical constraints, manifesting outside the heart as true Divine Skills.

This is called internal and external communication of intent, Spirit Light Divine Transformation!”

The more Gongsun Ce heard, the more he felt a chill, “What kind of heretical path is this?!

Spirit Light transforming into an obsession, isn’t this becoming a fanatic?

So, the more I cultivate, the crazier I become?!”

He remembered very well, during the phase of Spirit Illumination, one could easily go insane due to getting lost in the depths of the mind while searching for Spirit Light.

To dare to tamper with such critical elements, this Divine Communication Skill was simply a lunatic-making machine.

Waiting for the powers of the path to maliciously transform him was one thing, but he might go mad on his own first!

“Nonsense, have you seen any Impermanence Law Enforcer above Divine Communication who is normal?” Yan Qi snorted, “I told you from the start when I began teaching you, this lousy technique is useless!”

Gongsun Ce reflexively argued back, “Sister is quite normal.”

“That’s because I taught her well!” Yan Qi pulled a large tome from the bookshelf, flipping it to about 3/4 of the way through, “Stop yammering, reproduce what I taught you last week.”

Gongsun Ce, grumbling about this self-aggrandizing man, complied and made a bizarre hand gesture.

He put his hands together with the tips of his thumbs and index fingers touching, the other three fingers slightly bent, positioned in front of his chest.

“Say the incantation, seen in the first declarations.”

He then placed his hands palm-up in front of his lower abdomen, right hand on top of the left, tips of the thumbs touching.

“Samadhi seal, seen in deep contemplative meditation.”

He formed his right hand into a fist, his index finger extending out like a hook.

“The Phase of Ire Seal appeared amidst the subduing of demons.”

…

Gongsun Ce continuously changed hand gestures until his mouth was dry and his tongue felt parched, finally managing to clearly demonstrate what he had learned.

For a regular college student, these actions might have been utterly bewildering.

In fact, even Gongsun Ce himself did not understand what these learnings were for.

Fortunately, Shiyu Lianyi was a professional, and he understood everything clearly by his side.

Yan Qi taught Gongsun Ce a type of hand gesture known as “Seal.” It was commonly seen in Buddha statues, embodied in the positions formed by the palms and fingers of the sculptures.

Each Seal symbolized a particular principle of thought or law of matter.

This hand gesture, unlike the runes of the Impermanence Skill, held no supernatural powers.

It merely served as a spiritual symbol, a type of gesture that carried the thoughts of people.

The ideas and attachments in one’s heart could be understood by others through a simple gesture, clarifying one’s own being, perfectly bridging inner and external intentions.

Thus, the Seal was highly suitable to be employed as a medium for Divine Communication Skill.

After replicating the learnings of the previous week, Gongsun Ce began learning new Seals.

His learning pace was incredibly fast, a true embodiment of photographic memory, and the whole teaching process was akin to flipping through a book.

Observing this unique teaching style, Shiyu Lianyi curiously wondered what kind of Divine Communication Skill Yan Qi would design for Gongsun Ce.

Among the many Shiyu test subjects, there was no lack of those who utilized Seals to perform the Divine Communication Skill.

Their Divine Communication was meticulously designed by Shiyu Genmi, relying on a complete plan from spiritual prototypes to manifestation, supplemented by arrays designed from fantastical concepts, achieving nearly perfect replication.

This was the familiar cultivation process for the Shiyus, rather than discovering their own obsessions, it seemed more like following the madness and talent of Shiyu Genmi.

Even Shiyu Lianyi himself followed this process to manifestation, thus he truly did not understand how the “noble sects” of the Empire taught their disciples.

·

Time flew by swiftly, and before they realized it, evening had arrived.

The black-clad painter explained the last Seal and then closed the book.

“Have you memorized it all?”

Gongsun Ce nodded wearily, “Hmm.”

“Alright, forget all that,” Yan Qi tossed the book onto the sofa, “Figure out one on your own.”

Gongsun Ce stood agape for a long moment before snapping out of it.

Truly, two streams of fury rushed to his temples, a surge of Karmic Fire blazed up, infuriating him to the point he stepped forward and yelled, “Are you purposely making fun of me?!”

“Idiot!” Yan Qi scolded, “Using others’ designs to make bricks and build your own house, that’s called learning.

Moving someone else’s entire house over, is that learning?

That’s copying!

A hundred copies still won’t make it yours!”

Gongsun Ce was momentarily at a loss for words, indeed finding no argument.

He helplessly said, “How would I know when I could figure it out…”

“So what, should I design a Divine Communication Skill for you to copy?

Would that be your Divine Communication Skill?” Yan Qi scoffed, “That fool, Shiyu Genmi did just that, look at the imperfect fruits he taught, all the fine seeds have been carved into replicas of others, what’s the use of that!”

Person resembling an imperfect fruit awkwardly rubbed his forehead and said, “Sister Ling also created her own realm…”

Yan Qi glanced sharply and said, “Shiyu Ling’s former Impermanence Skill was rubbish.

Divine Communication thinking about escaping, the manifestation deceiving oneself and others, what nonsense!”

The person resembling an imperfect fruit had nearly figured out this man’s temperament, knowing he wouldn’t harshly critique Dreamland unless he felt that her creation of the realm was impressive…

“Let’s not bash Ling for now, please help me first.

What exactly should I cultivate in my mind?” Gongsun Ce asked, “Do I have to come up with my own hand gestures and thoughts?”

“Spirit Illumination seeks the essence of one’s spirit light.

Clarity involves reflecting and understanding oneself.

Only after you see yourself clearly do you have a foundation to stand on, to begin finding a forward direction.

You’re just a young man who hasn’t even completed Clarity, feet dangling in the air, where are your focused thoughts and convictions?” Yan Qi retorted, “Do you have a clear goal?

An unwavering worldview?

A principle you would prove at all costs?”

Gongsun Ce opened his mouth to say something, but the painter gestured for him to be quiet and instead shifted the topic.

“Know what makes a good Divine Communication Skill?

Which is better, Shiyu Ling’s Shadow Orchid or Lianyi’s True Word Talisman?”

Without a second thought, Gongsun Ce said, “Definitely Shadow Orchid.”

Yan Qi looked at him, smiling ambiguously, not immediately contradicting him but instead probing, “Why?”

“Why…

it’s because of its performance in battle.”

Shadow Orchid’s teleportation was extremely convenient even during the day, capable of fatal strikes with a misstep in transmission, and in the nighttime, it possessed an almost all-encompassing effectiveness.

In contrast, although the True Word Talisman could be effective in various situations, it lacked the decisive power to secure victory against an enemy of substantial strength, struggling to achieve life-saving miracles like Shadow Orchid.

Yan Qi posed a second question.

“Tell me, what use is the combat ability of Divine Communication Skill?”
