I Can Traverse Multiple Worlds-Chapter 95 - 94: Strength Fully Restored, Dao Heart Demon Seed

Chapter 95: Chapter 94: Strength Fully Restored, Dao Heart Demon Seed

Wang Xiao stared at the Incense before him, its green smoke curling upwards, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.

’This Incense contains the Divine Soul Thoughts of a Tier Seven Life?’

’What in the world is going on?!’

His analysis had already made it clear.

This Incense was condensed from the purest Wish Power and faith of all living beings.

Each portion of Incense could contain the Faith Willpower of tens of thousands of people.

This was the purest form of Spiritual Power, without a single trace of impurity.

That was how it enabled ordinary people to directly open their Mud Ball Palace through the Layman’s Certificate Technique and obtain the power to cultivate.

This Incense was even more precious than the Peaches of Immortality and Immortal Profound Crystals he had obtained in the Real World.

Its quality had already broken through the King Level to reach the Saint Level!

According to the item grade classifications, the order from lowest to highest was Mortal Level, Spirit Level, King Level, and Saint Level.

Wang Xiao had no idea what quality came after the Saint Level.

However, this Incense was undoubtedly the highest-quality item he had ever come into contact with!

Yet, it actually contained the thoughts of a Tier Seven Life.

And after refining it, one might even be assimilated!

This "assimilation" likely meant being influenced by the thoughts of the Tier Seven Life and becoming a puppet.

In any case, it was definitely not a good thing.

Otherwise, the "handle with caution" prompt wouldn’t have appeared before him.

’The Incense was originally nothing more than the condensed Wish Power of all living beings, making it exceptionally pure. But now that it contains the thoughts of a Tier Seven Life, the problem is much, much bigger.’

’Could this be what Hua Guiying meant when she said the Incense is poisoned?!’

’Those four words were a message from this body’s birth mother, Ning Xiaodie, that she had Hua Guiying relay to me. But how did Ning Xiaodie know?!’

Thoughts raced through Wang Xiao’s mind.

He had the faint feeling that this world was not as simple as it seemed.

It surely held secrets he did not yet understand.

’Looks like I’ll have to find a chance to go to the Seventh Layer of the Exorcism Tower and have a chat with that Ghost King.’

’But I’ll have to wait until I’m stronger—at least until I reach the Saint Realm.’

Of course, Wang Xiao didn’t dare rush to the Seventh Layer of the Exorcism Tower right now.

The wisp of Divine Soul Thought that Zhang Lingxiao had left in his Mud Ball Palace five years ago was a sword hanging constantly over his head!

There was no telling when it might fall.

He had to eliminate this hidden threat before he could seek out the Ghost King.

To do that, he needed to break through to the Saint Realm as quickly as possible.

The Saint Realm was a level that required at least six or seven rounds of Limit Breaking!

’All these years, Zhang Lingxiao hasn’t made any overt moves against me. He seems to be letting me develop freely. And the wisp of Divine Soul Thought hidden in my Mud Ball Palace has shown no signs of activity. What is he planning?’

Wang Xiao couldn’t quite figure out Zhang Lingxiao’s intentions.

However, he was certain of one thing: Zhang Lingxiao definitely didn’t have good intentions.

The various Magic Techniques used by the Cultivators of this world all relied on the Mud Ball Palace.

For a Cultivator, the Mud Ball Palace was their most vital spot.

It was a place that absolutely no one else was permitted to touch.

To tamper with someone’s Mud Ball Palace was to invite a battle to the death.

Zhang Lingxiao knew this full well, yet he still left a Divine Soul Thought inside Wang Xiao’s Mud Ball Palace.

It was obvious that Zhang Lingxiao had ulterior motives for him from the very beginning!

"Chongyang, go ahead and refine the Incense here in the Incense Hall to receive your Layman’s Certificate," Shou Chengzi said. "I, your master, will stand guard for you!"

Wang Xiao looked at the Incense, his eyes glinting, and nodded. "Yes, Master. However, I must also ask you to set up an Array for me. My Spirit is highly condensed, and I fear that receiving the Layman’s Certificate might cause too great a commotion and disturb the Daoist Ancestor Celestial Venerable."

He had joined Dragon Tiger Mountain as an ordinary disciple a year ago and had taken Shou Chengzi as his master.

So, naturally, he had also learned the Layman’s Certificate Technique.

The Layman’s Certificate Technique of the Incense Fire God Creation Path and the barrier-breaking Technique recorded in the texts of the Celestial Human Temple were, for all intents and purposes, largely the same.

The former relied on the Power of Incense and Candlelight to open the Mud Ball Palace, refine the Incense, and transform it into one’s own Spirit Talisman.

The latter relied on one’s own vitality and Spirit to break through the Celestial Gate and open the Mud Ball Palace.

It lacked the step of refining Incense and transforming it into one’s Spirit Talisman.

In the past, Wang Xiao wouldn’t have minded refining this Incense.

But now that he knew the risks, he naturally wouldn’t attempt it so carelessly.

A thought from a Tier Seven Life, even a single wisp, was likely more than he could withstand.

However, standing here before Shou Chengzi, Wang Xiao couldn’t exactly refuse.

Besides, he had delayed for so long; he truly needed to break through the Heaven-Breaking Pass and open his Mud Ball Palace.

Otherwise, his Cultivation would stagnate forever!

"Very well. Focus your mind and spirit, and refine it without worry. Your master is here for you."

Shou Chengzi knew this disciple of his was born with a powerful Divine Soul, so he nodded slightly.

He waved his hand.

In an instant, waves of light surged forward, enveloping Wang Xiao.

Feeling the fluctuations of Magical Power emanating from the light, Wang Xiao finally took the Incense, activated the Layman’s Certificate Technique, and drew it into his body.

However, he did not refine the Incense. Instead, he took the opportunity to circulate the Technique of the Celestial Human Temple. His vitality and blood boiled and churned, his Five Viscera hummed in unison, and his Spirit condensed into a single point as he began to assault his Mud Ball Palace!

’Such a huge commotion?!’

Shou Chengzi’s eyes narrowed slightly.

The Magical Power in his body surged, wrapping Wang Xiao up tightly.

A moment later, a Sword Shadow suddenly flashed out from within Wang Xiao’s body.

It was immediately followed by a series of thunderous roars.

Wang Xiao’s Forehead Mud Ball Palace erupted with waves of white light; it had finally been blasted open.

A powerful surge of spiritual consciousness instantly swept through his entire body.

Wang Xiao instantly felt his Spirit expand.

The Fog within his Mud Ball Palace dissipated completely. His Yin Spirit emerged, then continuously condensed until it was almost tangible!

In just a few short moments, Wang Xiao broke through from the First Layer of the Spiritual Domain all the way to the Seventh Layer.

His strength was fully restored!

This was the result of five years of constantly honing his Spirit—a long accumulation leading to an explosive release!

Of course, this was also partly because he was a transmigrated Soul Projection, which meant his Spirit was naturally condensed to begin with.

Just then, a glint flashed in Wang Xiao’s eyes.

Zhang Lingxiao’s Divine Soul Thought had vanished at some point.

Then, it silently merged into his Yin Spirit.

If his Spirit hadn’t been so incredibly condensed at that moment, he would never have noticed such a subtle disturbance.

’The Divine Soul Thought slipped into my Yin Spirit without a trace. It seems he’s trying to plant a Dao Heart Demon Seed, either to turn me into a puppet or to possess my body for his own rebirth.’

’Hmph. Just you wait. Since you’re courting death, don’t blame me for what comes next!’

Over the years in Shou Chengzi’s abode, Wang Xiao had read a great many of this world’s Cultivation Techniques.

As a result, he naturally knew quite a bit about various Daoist Techniques.

He knew that this kind of Divine Soul Thought would be extremely weak at first, like a seed taking root in another person’s Yin Spirit.

Until, at a certain moment, it would suddenly sprout, controlling or even replacing the host’s Yin Spirit.

However, Zhang Lingxiao hadn’t made a move yet, probably because the time wasn’t right.

’I have to leave this Divine Soul Thought alone for now. I can’t act rashly. Otherwise, if Zhang Lingxiao detects it, he will surely attack me. With his Saint Realm Cultivation, I stand no chance of resisting.’

’Since he’s not in a hurry to make his move, it buys me time to cultivate!’

Wang Xiao suppressed the urge to obliterate the Divine Soul Thought.

However, the killing intent in his heart grew even sharper.
