Exploring Immortality Cultivation

If this were a typical script, the Du Residence would have been thoroughly tainted by the Heart Demon Curse in an instant. However, Wang Qi had not forgotten his proof.

The artificial grandfather, Du Chun, and the Holy Light believer, Du Gui, the former was just a casual move made by Wang Qi. The latter became useless after taking over the Silver Dawn and merging it into one system. But now, they had become crucial clues for developing the Anti-Demon Spell and saving Divine Capital.

Thus, during this chaos, two anomalies appeared in the Du family.

Du Gui protected his mind with Holy Light, even managing to provide protection to his companions in time. His cultivation of the Holy Light Divine Skill, just like the Thousand Illusion Divine Spell, was derived from the disassembly of the Holy Light God's internal structure and possessed some resistance to the Five Plagues Total Curse. Initially, he couldn't understand how this was possible, but instinctively, he protected his companions. Due to his efforts, his brother Du Fu and several other Holy Light believers were not immediately corrupted.

However, the restriction formed in the sky had already risen. He knew this approach spared no one.

At that moment, a voice reached his ears, "Hurry and leave. Take the believers of the Silver Dawn and leave Divine Capital, head to the mountains and forests outside Divine Capital…"

Du Gui gasped, "Senior!"

"This is the Yanyue Sect's retaliation. I'm not in a position to intervene. You must hurry."

"I can't run from being a slave…"

"The Du family is doomed this time."

Du Gui gritted his teeth, "I fear I can't break this restriction."

Suddenly, nature's spiritual energy transformed, and radiant light gathered, condensing into a two-handed great sword in front of Du Gui. This was the physical manifestation of the Heart Demon Curse's power formed from the mana of the Du family members.

"Don't use the ordinary sacrificial refining method. Use the Holy Light Subduing Technique to subjugate it. Don't attempt to refine it! Hurry, leave!"

"Remember, you must personally carry the cross and leave Divine Capital."

"Hurry!"

Du Gui concentrated Holy Light in his hands and grasped the hilt of the long sword. The moment his hands touched the sword, he clearly understood the origin of this sword.

The Azure Fury, personally forged by Terry, the Elder Justice Saint Envoy from ancient times, used the essence of celestial meteor iron and extracted the rough outline in the aura of the aurora, then baptized it with Holy Water, forged it with Holy Fire, made its blade with Holy Light, and prayed for the blessing of the Holy Light Spirit to protect the sword. It was later held by another ancient great power, a Holy Envoy named Yisuzhiel, used to slay demons and punish evil. Even the strongest-bodied Demon God known as "Boss" from the Outer Heaven Demons dared not face its edge. It was lost in the Mortal World after Yisuzhiel's expedition into the Heavenly Demon Realm due to his betrayal of the Holy Light…

Du Gui couldn't spare a moment to ponder why this story seemed nonsensical and subtly conflicted with the Holy Light Teachings, nor why the color of the "Azure Fury" resembled the blue of the Five Plagues Total Curse, or why someone would bother to give him something that was, at the very least, an Immortal Artifact. He transmitted his will through the Holy Light into the two-handed great sword and swung.

With a sweep of the azure sword light, the Gu worms transformed by the Spell Spirits of the Five Plagues Total Curse were assimilated.

It was effective!

Upon realizing that even the Gu insects, which Du Chongwei found absolutely hopeless, were effortlessly destroyed, Du Gui had no more doubts about Azure Fury. He cried out loud, "Brothers, let's go!"

Elsewhere, Zhen Chan kept urging Du Chun, "Staying here is of no use to you! Do you see those Gu outside? The Yanyue Sect's secret lethal technique, the Cold Moon Yin Demon Gu! Anyone capable of using this technique must be at least at the Divine Separation Stage, and also good at combat with an abundance of lifespan. What use is a mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator like you?"

The Five Plagues Total Curse had blatantly taken the Du family's mana, and the aura of the Yanyue Sect was unmistakably clear, such that even the Du family themselves never doubted. Shenzhou had never seen such a law that could plunder another's mana and use it directly without refining. If it existed at all, it would be the vicious secret technique used among the sect members for executions. Du Chun was terrified, "Our family also belongs to Yanyue Sect, why don't I know about this."

...Because there really is no "Cold Moon Yin Demon Gu Technique" in this world, child. You are too naive.

Of course, Zhen Chan wouldn't say so.

"Your Du family ancestor, back in his day in the Yanyue Sect, was merely an Outer Elder. If not for his lack of success, how could he not have any loyalty to the Yanyue Sect and turn to the Modern Immortal Path? They know nothing!"

"Elder Zhen, what should I do then?"

"Elderly guidance may grant you a thread of chance to escape. The Circle Method is intricate and unparalleled, far beyond the reach of mere Yanyue Sect."

The Du Family's survival technique, Yanyue Sect's secret technique, was deemed worthless by the mysterious elder before them. In the past, Du Chun might have rolled his eyes or chuckled ruefully. However, at this moment, he could no longer afford to care about that.

"Is there really… no way out?"

"The Du Family is doomed. If you insist on dying with your clan and forsaking any hope for revenge, then, for the sake of old times, you might as well hide me. I do not wish to fall into their hands."

Du Chun's eyes were red with rage. His body was shrouded in a pale, cold fog, and his voice seemed to emerge from beneath the Nine Netherworld, icy and filled with a murderous intent: "Yanyue Sect, just wait, as soon as I become an unmatched powerhouse, I will return. The next time we meet, I will completely destroy you! Whoever obstructs me, dies!"

"Are you an idiot? Constrain your aura quickly!"

Sensing that Du Gui's Holy Light believers and Du Chun had fled separately, Zhen Chan signaled Wang Qi. Amidst the chaos, he played a dual role, guiding both Du Gui and Du Chun to escape.

Wang Qi, with his eyes closed, nodded.

Du Bin had seen his father's Cold Moon casting a cold river, and a cold river rising to the moon techniques and was terrified: "It's over… Brother Wang, if you lose... if you lose…I'll be killed by my father! It's over…it's over…"

"What's the rush? It's just a Golden Core."

Wang Qi felt it was his time to show off and stood up.

Bu Que asked unexpectedly, "Brother Wang, what are you up to? Don't tell me you're really going to attack my family?"

"I told you, I'm here to deliver love." Wang Qi smiled brilliantly. He summoned the heavily refined ghost soldier "White Snake"—oh, wrong, according to the setting, this ghost soldier should be called "New Moon" now. Wang Qi took a half step forward with his left foot and held his fist to his waist: "Gravity is love! So, 'New Moon', crush them with love!"

Towards the Du Residence, "New Moon" raised its palm high and then slammed it down.

It was just a gesture, even though several walls and barriers separated them. However, Du Chongwei suddenly felt a pain in his chest, his heart stopped for a beat, and his diaphragm felt like it was about to be pierced.

Gravity's mass-energy conversion efficiency far exceeds nuclear fusion and is the second strongest known mass-energy conversion form in the universe, next only to the one hundred percent positive antimatter annihilation. However, the gravity of celestial bodies like Earth can be counteracted by the mere muscles of carbon-based life forms.

Why?

Because gravity permeates all dimensions, layering through spaces, its power "leaks."

This characteristic also means that gravity is unstoppable and unblockable unless you could master all dimensions!

Master of Calculation, Xi Baiche, might calculate it, and Taiyi Heavenly Venerable might have this level. But Du Chongwei definitely doesn't have such a realm!

The excruciating pain in his heart interrupted Du Chongwei's actions, his circulation of spiritual power broke, and his defensive aura collapsed instantly.

"Ai Changyuan, that boy, is quite formidable," Wang Qi was slightly astonished. "New Moon" used a large number of magic foundations designed by Ai Changyuan, most of which related to gravity, hence its control over gravity should be comparable to Ai Changyuan. However, Wang Qi neither possessed the "Wanxiang Heavenly Attraction" that borrows celestial gravity, nor the "Sky Collapsing Palm" handed down by Yuanli Master and modified by Taiyi Heavenly Venerable, so realistically fighting, "New Moon" couldn't possibly win by relying on gravity alone.

After the gravity on his heart suddenly increased by twenty times, Du Chongwei's acupoints were nearly torn apart, his heart vessels were damaged, and his mana became chaotic. In the brief moment his aura collapsed, seven or eight Gu worms invaded within a foot of Du Chongwei. Out of desperation and without his usual composure, he frantically flailed around, releasing unprocessed mana infused with moonlight externally, hoping to interfere with the Gu worms. But how could his palms alone protect his entire body? Soon, more than a dozen Gu worms burrowed into his acupoints.

Then suddenly, his entire body was subjected to thirty times gravity.

A cultivator can easily lift a weight a hundred times their own, but "lifting ten times their body weight" and "withstanding ten times gravity" are fundamentally different concepts. Given how the human body is structured, having organs, nerves, blood vessels, and the brain uniformly subjected to ten times the force is terrifying. To withstand it would require changing every chemical bond in the body's tissues, akin to special body refining techniques like the Titanium Body. Even Wang Qi could only rely on the fastest speed reduction line to leverage strength.

Intense pain crushed Du Chongwei. The mana of this Golden Core Cultivator collapsed in an instant. Normally, such injuries would not be fatal, but at this moment, countless Five Epidemic Total Curse spell spirits swarmed him, infecting him.

"Chongwei!" "Patriarch!" The subsequent two Golden Core cultivators who rushed out saw this scene and panicked. They wanted to save Du Chongwei who had fallen into the insect swarm. However, the remaining Golden Core cultivators screamed loudly, warning them not to touch the Gu worms. Meanwhile, seeing that Du Chongwei was also infected, several other Golden Core cultivators immediately fell into despair, getting completely infected by the Five Epidemic Total Curse.

"This is bad!" The three Golden Core cultivators who rushed out next decided to first fly out of this restriction to seek help or find the controller of the Gu worms. Suddenly, they felt the direction warp, and their escape lights crashed directly into each other!

Matter tells space how to exist, and space tells matter how to move. "New Moon" had stolen a small portion of a planet's gravity, and slightly bending space-time was not very difficult.

Moreover, many times, there's no need to use concepts as advanced as bending space. The concepts of up, down, left, and right for humans are all determined based on "the direction of gravity." When gravity is disordered, people naturally lose their sense of direction.

Outside the Du Residence, Wang Qi smiled: "I told you, I would love them to death—gravity is love!" (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to qidian.com to vote for it or buy monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
