Chapter 247: Seclusion (Lite)
🕑 Added 2025-12-04 12:45:59 +0000 UTCA few days have passed since then. Not a lot of things happened. I accompanied Sirin until she woke up. Her entire mind is in a mess. I decided to leave for a while and let her calm down. I also gave away the Tao Gifts to others.
There are still a lot of things in my to-do-list but…
{Body: Peak Nascent Soul (100%)}
{Qi: Peak Nascent Soul (100%)}
{Mind: Peak Nascent Soul (100%)}
My entire state is ready for a breakthrough. All that’s left is the perfect time as well as catching up with the two new techniques. That way, all fifteen aspects of my Dharma Avatar will step into the Divine Transformation Realm.
My passive income of Tao Gifts never stopped, either. The past ten years stored a bunch of them, primarily coming from my ‘partners’. I only used Seele's portion to heal my injuries.
The accumulated Tao Gifts of four Nascent Soul cultivators and thirteen Golden Core Realm cultivators are massive. Only Rita and Himeko held middle grade spirit roots; everyone else possessed high grade spirit roots. It’s akin to having more than a dozen geniuses feeding onto my cultivation.
Now, I could say that all of my efforts in nurturing them paid off. I received trustworthy allies and broken cultivation hacks.
Nobody else interrupted my thoughts. This is Kiana’s imaginary space… or rather, Cave Heaven. It is the term for the imaginary spaces that are converted into spirit veins. This place alone houses Earth’s rarest eighth grade spirit vein—capable of sustaining a Dao Integration Realm’s practice.
And so my hacking began.
Silver lights flew out of my soul. They appeared tangibly as rays of light circling around me. The more I drew their power, the more exaggerated their size became.
My thinking speed grew faster at first. The level of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator allows for the comprehension of low-mastery techniques extremely fast.
Then, the blessings of the Tao Gifts showed their might. Vast amounts of insight came one after another. Hundreds of thousands of similar techniques flashed in my mind. Their similarities to the [Universe Covering Winged Kunpeng’s Descent] and [Endless Combinations Art] are highlighted in an easy-to-understand manner. It was as if I was looking at the most simplified version of these techniques. Their core principles remain untouched; it was me who saw them differently.
Finally, the Dao of Enlightenment stacked onto these effects, pushing my comprehension to another level altogether. Ideas flowed endlessly as the cross-referencing ensued.
The existence of the techniques I knew, the power of Enlightenment, and my own comprehension created this miraculous progress.
Time passed endlessly.
{Universe Covering Winged Kunpeng’s Descent: Unentered > Great Accomplishment}
{Endless Combinations Art: Unentered > Great Accomplishment}
Looking at the halved reserves of Tao Gifts, I let out a soft exhale. An urge to call out my Dharma Avatar arose. I followed my instincts.
Zoom-!
The human-sized avatar let out mystical lights corresponding to the Five Elements, Yin-Yang, Extremity, and Void. It swirled into a pale purple orb before entering my Dharma Avatar’s chest.
Hum-!
A special sensation emanated from my chest. The power of creation gathered in my fingertips.
I touched the space in front of me. The three-dimensional space multiplied at fast rates, creating brand new spatial layers at once. I willed it to shatter and turn into a sharp blade.
Everything it went through got reduced to shreds. The imaginary space I resided on shook intensely until I dissipated this power.
My Nascent Soul’s spiritual qi reserves got reduced by half. The next moment, it was filled up completely. The recovery of an ultimate grade spirit root is no joke.
A single seclusion allowed me to access the Dao of All Creation. It happened naturally right after I had the corresponding techniques to the [Great Accomplishment] mastery.
This…
I didn’t expect this.
The [Great Accomplishment] mastery of [Xiutian Art] allowed for Tao Gifts to be used in techniques. Similarly, progress in technique masteries also gave out Tao Gifts. Nonetheless, comprehending a single technique to the [Great Accomplishment] mastery cannot be done by Tao Gifts alone. They boost your base progress. It still depends on your capabilities. If two people spend the same amount of Tao Gifts, their progress will differ based on their talents.
…
This doesn’t matter.
I took out a mechanical clock from my brand new storage ring. It is Welt Yang’s special creation. It can exist in a highly chaotic place such as the imaginary space and Sea of Quanta.
The time… 9:30 AM.
The date… August 30 2032.
I entered seclusion in 2030.
Two years passed, just like that..?
I swear it felt like an hour at most. I can only accept my overwhelmingly skewed sense of time. Fortunately, the gacha function of the golden orb stored any missed charges. That was how I managed to obtain ten years’ worth of loot before.
I checked my current status and confirmed I am ready for the Divine Transformation Realm breakthrough.
Just as I opened the entrance to the Cave Heaven, numerous rays of light flew to my side. I caught onto one of them. It is a transparent dark blue cube. A single touch revealed Kiana’s words.
“The Empyrean broke through successfully.”
I wasn’t surprised when I heard about this news. Prior to my seclusion, I left half of the resources I gained from the gacha to Fu Hua. This stemmed from her request regarding Body Reconstruction spiritual materials. She wanted to give Senti her own body. While I don’t know how their relationship went, I gladly gave her the necessary materials.
There are also some spiritual treasures useful for the Nascent Soul Realm’s Heart Demon Tribulation. A set of them guarantees 100% breakthrough.
As expected, the successful breakthroughs came one after another. After Fu Hua came Bronya and Hei Xuanyuan.
The two sets remained unused…
Ah, I got it.
Nobody wanted to use it.
In my perspective, giving away these key resources is absolutely fine. The stronger they get, the more Tao Gifts I obtain. It also doesn’t matter since these resources are practically free. There is also no use in hoarding breakthrough materials when I could no longer use it myself.
To the others, however, taking something without giving in exchange feels awkward. Fu Hua and Bronya are fine since I talked personally with them. The rest would feel awkward in taking these resources.
The only solution here is to talk with them myself.
I continued catching up on Kiana’s news. One of them surprised me.
Sin attempted to mess around on Mars. She ended up coming back on Earth seriously injured.
Sin…
…
I made a mistake.
I shouldn’t have gone into seclusion immediately. The outside world is in a mess. I have a vague feeling that Sin carried out that plan because of me. Anything sensed by my intuition often turns out to be true. This is the intuition of a fifth grade Diviner.
There are also others.
Mei did not partake in the breakthrough materials I left. Her rough relationship with her Queen stigma persona hasn’t been fixed… something tied to me.
The five partners whom I haven’t even met…
I might have placed them in awkward positions.
Overall, my entire interpersonal relationships are in a mess. I don’t know where I previously got the courage to ignore them and focus on my impending breakthrough.
That’s it.
Before I settle everything else, I will not start my breakthrough!
