Killing God - Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Cultivation
The ceiling of the hall was like the sky. The starlight was so dazzling that it seemed as if eternal starlight was embedded in the boundless night sky like a beautiful gem. At some unknown time, the ground of the Morning Star Hall was also in darkness. Suddenly, it became illusory. The faint starlight actually reflected from the depths of its feet.

At that moment, Shen Shi seemed to have dissipated, his primordial spirit blurred, and he was in a daze. Countless stars surrounded him like sand.

Behind the starlight, a deep and deep voice rang out in the endless darkness. It echoed in Shen Shi’s ears, causing him to be shocked. He woke up from this dreamlike starlight illusion and said,

“Hold the spirit crystal and perform a secret technique.”

After wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Shen Shi couldn’t help but gasp heavily for a few breaths. The illusion just now suddenly arrived, as if it had an extremely strong suction force, instantly dragging his spirit into the starry sky illusion. Not to mention sensing resistance, he didn’t even have the slightest space to react.

At this moment, he was awakened by Wang Gen’s voice. Shen Shi’s soul was startled for the first time. Only then did he realize that he was actually still in the Morning Star Hall’s original position. The surrounding youths were also like this. However, most of them had astonished expressions on their faces. There were even a few youths whose eyes were tightly shut, and they actually revealed a hallucinatory expression.

I wonder if these people are still immersed in that illusion?

Shen Shi secretly raised his eyes and looked around. He saw the stars above his head flickering. He didn’t know what kind of spirit materials were used to create the floor of the hall beneath his feet, but there was actually a faint glimmer within it. Looking in the darkness, it really looked very similar to the starlight in the night sky. And he watched for a bit longer, Suddenly, his spirit became somewhat blurry again. It was as if he was about to be in that beautiful and illusionary starry sky. This shock was truly extraordinary. Shen Shi was greatly shocked. He immediately closed his eyes and bit his lips ruthlessly. Under such stimulation, his entire body was refreshed. Only then did he truly wake up again.

This Immortal Clan’s Dao Art was truly unimaginable.

As such, Shen Shi didn’t dare to look around him any longer. Although he faintly felt that under the illumination of this starlight, His body seemed to be in a river so dense that it almost turned into water, He didn’t know if it was the magical Dao Art that Ancestor Lingxiao Sect had set up when he built this Morning Star Hall. At this moment, he was only observing his nose and heart. According to what Wang Gen had said, he took out the spirit crystal that he had placed in the iron box yesterday from his bosom and clenched it tightly in his right palm, as required by the [Starnet Art]. Then, he slowly closed his eyes.

At that moment, his mind was empty. His distracting thoughts seemed to disappear in the blink of an eye. He quickly entered a state of concentration and cultivation at an unbelievable speed. In his right palm, there was a faint trace of indescribable spiritual energy within the translucent crystal that he had sensed.

Shen Shi still didn’t know that this was actually one of the miraculous effects of the Morning Star Palace. To a child who had just started cultivating and had never come into contact with spirit crystal spirit power, just this inconspicuous step was extremely valuable. It was truly indescribable.

Why are there hundreds of millions of humans, some of whom can cultivate, and others who have no hope of doing so for the rest of their lives? Why were the disciples of the great sects so different from ordinary rogue cultivators in cultivation? At this early stage of cultivation, Apart from those rare geniuses, perhaps ordinary people would have to spend countless amounts of energy to feel the invisible Spiritual Energy. As for the great sects that had inherited it for thousands of years, how many geniuses and seniors had gone through the painstaking exploration to obtain such a miraculous method that could increase the cultivation efficiency of their disciples bit by bit?

It was a very strange feeling. It was a feeling that Shen Shi had never felt before in his life. It was like a faint glimmer of light flashing through the boundless and eternal darkness.

He stared at the light from afar. It was the only hope in the darkness, and there was nothing else.

He desperately wanted to feel the light. He wanted to feel the warmth, brightness, or anything else of the light. He didn’t care about anything. As long as he got close to the light, he could feel it.

A cold feeling came from the palm of his hand in the darkness. That was the unique temperature of spirit crystals. No matter how he touched it, this small crystal stone would always be so cold. A small stone spirit crystal, At this moment, Shen Shi felt like an endless sky. All he needed to do was to first capture a ray of light in the endless darkness, and then use the Star Luo Technique secret technique passed down by Lingxiao Sect to slowly pull this wisp of imperceptible spiritual energy into his body and into the Qi Veins around him. Using this as a foundation, he began to cultivate the Grand Dao of Immortality.

The faint, dreamlike light seemed to be very close, but it felt extremely far away. At this moment, Shen Shi was completely immersed in this world of his own cultivation. He could no longer feel any movement around his body. He was wholeheartedly trying to capture this ghostly light that was as dexterous as a ghost.

Wang Gen’s unique and deep voice said, At this moment, it also sounded from time to time in the Morning Star Hall. But unlike what everyone had heard before, At this time, his voice would only suddenly resound in the ears of a disciple. What he said was precisely a reminder that this person was experiencing difficulties in absorbing spirit crystal spirit power. It was as if he somehow had a pair of strange eyes in the Morning Star Hall, able to see the situation of every youth cultivating with his eyes closed.

④

Shen Shi did not hear Wang Gen’s voice ringing in his ears, nor did he know the situation of the youths around him. At this moment, he was wholeheartedly still competing with that little bit of Spiritual Energy.

To him, The speed at which he sensed this bit of spiritual energy was extremely fast. Although he didn’t know, among the 400 plus rookie disciples, even with the help of the Morning Star Temple’s strange formation, he could sense that the speed of spiritual energy in the world was among the fastest of the top 20. At this speed, even Wang Gen’s gaze lingered on him for a moment at the very beginning.

However, after that, Shen Shi encountered a problem in absorbing spiritual energy into his body, which was even more important.

That tiny ghost-like light shuttled through the boundless darkness like lightning. It seemed to miss this deep darkness incomparably, but it didn’t want to get close to him. Regardless of how Shen Shi tried to get close to the trap, his success would always be in vain.

Time flowed away minute by minute. The starlight in the Morning Star Hall still flickered. Amidst the faint starlight, Shen Shi’s face was somewhat pale. On the high platform in the darkness ahead, Wang Gen, who was meditating, swept his gaze across the crowd. He paused on his face for a moment, and without any emotion or change in expression, he turned his gaze away and looked elsewhere.

In the darkness, the game of chasing Spiritual Energy continued.

After an unknown amount of time, After countless failures, Even in the mental illusion, Shen Shi slowly felt dizzy and exhausted. The faint light finally seemed to have been forced into a dark corner by him, unable to escape anymore. In the next moment, Shen Shi was like a ferocious beast that he had imagined, pouncing fiercely like a wolf and tiger, finally grabbing this faint light in his hand with incomparable difficulty.

Incomparable joy instantly surged into his heart. At the same time, a warm aura seemed to be transmitted from the spirit crystal in his palm. It was completely different from the cold aura emitted from the spirit crystal. Perhaps, this was the aura of Heaven Earth Spiritual Energy?

Shen Shi was pleasantly surprised, but he did not hesitate. After taking a deep breath, he used the Starnet Cultivation Technique that he had already memorized last night to guide this weak amount of spiritual energy from the palm of his hand into his body and into his meridians and qi meridians.

As long as this Spiritual Energy entered his body, he would be able to circulate through the Qi channels of his fleshly body using a secret technique for a whole day, and then he would be able to stabilize it. From then on, he would be able to store it in his Qi channels. After absorbing it repeatedly, his Spiritual Energy would gradually become deeper. At the beginning, he could only use one arm of Qi Meridian Spiritual Energy, but the rest of the Spiritual Energy scattered all over the Qi Meridian and could not move. Cultivating so bitterly, And then his realm rose, From the initial stage of the Qi Refining Realm to the intermediate stage and then to the higher stage, When he finally took that crucial step and opened up the Jade Mansion under his flesh, also known as the Qi Sea, the spiritual energy in his entire body gathered here like a hundred rivers flowing back to the sea. From then on, all the spiritual energy in his body could be used as he wished. All kinds of divine passage techniques could be cultivated and executed. It was for the Origin Condensation Realm, and it was also the first step on the Grand Dao of Cultivation.

The bright future and the magnificent scenery of the Grand Dao of Cultivation seemed to have already been revealed. As long as this wisp of Spiritual Energy entered his body safely!

Suddenly, a sharp pain suddenly burst out from Shen Shi’s head without warning. It was like a raging sea that instantly engulfed him. Under the starlight, the twelve-year-old boy’s face, which was already somewhat pale and tired, suddenly distorted. His body began to tremble violently, and his mouth let out an uncontrollable groan of pain.

On the high platform, Wang Gen’s gaze instantly turned around and stared at Shen Shi. His brows furrowed.

At this moment, Shen Shiru was in purgatory. He felt as if his entire body was being filled with an invisible force that was about to crack apart. Especially in his head, there seemed to be an Ancient Era’s ferocious beast howling violently, crazily biting his head. The pain was actually ten times deeper than the pain he had suffered when he was forced to sit in the teleportation array for the sake of coming to Haizhou.

What exactly was this? What exactly happened?

In the midst of the unbearable pain, Shen Shi did not know why, but he actually persisted in not fainting. Such doubts even flashed through his mind. It was at this moment that a deep male voice suddenly sounded in his ears. It was Wang Gen’s voice that carried a sense of seriousness and solemnity. He said,

“This is a backlash of the flesh. It cannot be resisted forcefully. Immediately throw away the spirit crystal, relax your mind, take a short breath, and slowly breathe.”

The voice was solemn, At this moment, the chaotic Shen Shi sounded, But like a beacon, he subconsciously followed what he said. As expected, once the spirit crystal was thrown away, the intense pain wave immediately slowed down. After he relaxed his mind according to Wang Gen’s instructions, his entire body calmed down and the sudden pain dissipated bit by bit.

When Shen Shi opened his eyes again, his entire body seemed to have exhausted all of his strength. There was even a sense of dizziness in his mind. At this moment, the starlight in the Morning Star Hall had dissipated. Whether it was the sky above the hall or the strange stone slabs beneath his feet, they had all returned to their original state. The two heavy doors slowly reopened, and a warm light shone into the hall.

Young friend Sun was still sitting beside him, and many of the youths were still in place. Before all the youths could react, Wang Gen’s voice had once again echoed in everyone’s ears in the hall.

“This is the end of today’s cultivation. Wait until you return to rest. Only then will there be a backlash left in your cultivation.”
