Exploring Immortality Cultivation

On Earth, the establishment of quantum physics was extraordinarily tortuous. In the microscopic realm, the world was so mysterious that even those who created quantum physics dared not believe everything they had discovered. Marx Planck couldn't even accept the results he had found. When he discovered that energy emission and distribution was discontinuous and not uniform, the physics edifice built upon Maxwell's Equations, filled with the beauty of mathematics, ultimately collapsed. The "field" in "Heavenly Song," representing Maxwell's Equations, was twisted by the "discontinuity" and "nonuniformity" from "Great Discrete Coincidence," beginning to lose its stability. The clash of mana between Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire, like the intersection of two powerful forces, caused Wang Qi's entire network of meridians to ache so intensely that he nearly cried out in pain. This divergence also diverted the mana flow of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas." Fortunately, the special feature of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" cultivation system was its inherent freedom and casualness, lacking the problems of "incorrect cultivation, leading to Deviation." Wang Qi soon regained control of this strand of mana. Then, he continued his cultivation. To guide the mana of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," Wang Qi had no time to reconcile the powers of "Heavenly Song" and "Great Discrete Coincidence." The clash between the two cultivation techniques grew increasingly intense. At times, Wang Qi felt his entire body go numb; at other times, he felt his mana shatter into countless pieces, leaving him with no way to continue. Just as the cultivation of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" was halfway done, with mana reaching the Dantian, "Heavenly Entropy Technique" began to rebel. A surge of heat burst forth from Wang Qi's lower abdomen, instantly spreading throughout his body, making him feel as though he had fallen into a furnace. The upper limit of temperature the human body can endure is only about one hundred degrees Celsius. "Heavenly Entropy Technique's" Entropy Increase Skill brought about a rise in temperature with no upper limit. Indeed, cultivators could survive at extremely high temperatures, but that was only by using mana to isolate themselves from the heat; without mana, their physical bodies were not much stronger than those of ordinary people. The uncontrollable raging fire from "Heavenly Entropy Technique" was unforgiving. Wang Qi nearly coughed up blood, but he clenched his teeth and persisted with the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas." If he couldn't master the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" this time, then later, when the several types of mana in his body became stronger, he would be even less likely to succeed! The high temperature caused Wang Qi's robe, a magic artifact, to emit a scorched smell, and the clothes underneath had long turned to ash. Just as Wang Qi was about to complete a full Circulation, "Heavenly Light Materialization Technique" also began to go berserk. During the first full Circulation of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," and when the newborn mana at the Baihui Acupoint blended, "Elephant Phase Wave Skill" lost control. By the second Circulation of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," "Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy" went out of control. Wang Qi tasted a lingering coppery sweetness in his mouth. Blood trickled down his lips, evaporating before it could drip, due to the intense heat. The mat he sat upon had long been slashed into tattered pieces by the inadvertently released Wave Blades, the cuts even penetrating the stone floor. He couldn't... give up... Wang Qi's consciousness was becoming blurry, but he forcefully continued his cultivation. To establish a mana Circulation, completing three Circulations was the most basic requirement. If he gave up now, all previous efforts would be in vain. Mana, following the cultivation path of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," slowly progressed. Finally, upon entering the third Circulation, the most stable "Yao Ding Calculating Scripture" and "Book of Geometry" mana also spiraled out of control. Now the mana within Wang Qi's body was in turmoil; any mana flow would go awry. Had it not been for cultivating the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," Wang Qi would have already succumbed to Deviation and perished. Even so, he did not have an easy time. In this state of total mana turmoil, pushing the cultivation technique forward even an inch was extremely difficult. But still... he couldn't give up... The bloodied young man let out a low growl. Persevere! Persevere! Inside the ring, Zhen Chan shook his head and sighed, "Kid, have you really not noticed? You are already so concerned about your own strength." The elderly man still clearly remembered when the willful boy had declared, "How Heaven and Earth change, how others change, it all has nothing to do with me. I only seek a brilliant life," with the spirited youthful exuberance and a radiant glow. Today, his radiance had not faded, but within his spirit, there was now a hint of world-weariness. Zhen Chan muttered to himself, "My boy, you care more about this world than you think! This might well be your lifelong weakness." "But for a Modern Cultivator, such a disposition can be considered top-notch talent!" In the empty Transmitting Technique Hall, an aged voice rang out. Zhen Chan was greatly startled and cried out, "Who's there?" An old man stepped out of the void clad in a blue robe... No, that's not right! Zhen Chan's Mahayana Level Spiritual Sense captured the trajectory of the man's movement, so this was not a teleportation spell. However, the trajectory of the old man's movement technique was so mysterious that Zhen Chan couldn't comprehend it at all! The old man had a naturally stern countenance, but his demeanour was gentle and refined. He smiled and replied, "Xi Baiche." Xi Baiche, the premier expert of the Wanfa Sect, the uncrowned king of the Path of Mathematical Reasoning. Even most disciples of Wanfa didn't know just how powerful their Great Cultivator had become. But one thing could indirectly reflect the might of this peerless expert—centuries ago, Xi Baiche posed twenty-three questions. Each of these questions touched upon the fundamentals of mathematics, each directly pointing to the Carefree state! But Wang Qi had not detected the other's arrival. At the moment Xi Baiche appeared, the youth had finally completed the third Circulation, and the Mana from the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" could now circulate within him on its own. Having achieved this, Wang Qi's taut spirit inevitably relaxed slightly. At the instant the tension in his heart eased, all the accumulated fatigue suddenly exploded! "Damn... I can't... sleep... Ah!" If he fainted now, he would not be able to regulate the chaotic Mana inside his body! By then, whether he would survive or not would depend on whether the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas"'s auto-regulation was effective or not! Damn! Wang Qi clenched his teeth, struggling to maintain the last bit of clarity. It was at this moment that Xi Baiche made his move. He laid his right hand on the Dazhui Acupoint at the nape of Wang Qi's neck, sending a subtle stream of Mana into Wang Qi's body. Then, a miracle happened. The Mana of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" within Wang Qi suddenly accelerated, iterating more than ten times in an extremely short duration. With each iteration, the cultivation route of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" became more attuned to Wang Qi's condition. And the confrontational mental methods, stimulated by this stream of Mana, became even more chaotic. But this chaos broke the stalemate of the various threads of Mana crushing against each other, with the scattered Mana mutually neutralizing under their mutual interference. Wang Qi's body momentarily returned to calmness. Xi Baiche had used the method of mathematical reasoning to drive the evolution of the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," and then allowed the Mana within Wang Qi to cancel each other out! After more than ten iterations, it seemed as though the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas" had encountered a bottleneck. The progression abruptly halted and then poured into the labor palaces of both hands. After several seconds, a surge of powerful Mana passed through Wang Qi's hands. "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," the second layer! With Xi Baiche's help, Wang Qi had unexpectedly made a breakthrough in the "Heavenly Calculation Atlas," which he hadn't intended to work hard on!
