Chapter 35: Divinity and the Pure Mind
Chapter 35: Divinity and the Pure Mind
In the courtyard, the cold snow fell silently, blanketing the earth in a serene white cloak.
Li Che's lips curled upwards slightly, a hint of a smile, as his mind sank into a state of tranquility.
On the Dao Tree, which had sprouted from the wild earth, another Dao Fruit formed, its vibrant colors resembling a seven-colored glass bead.
The third Dao Fruit!
The third one after Celestial Craft and Dragon Elephant Vajra!
Celestial Craft had enhanced Li Che's craftsmanship, while Dragon Elephant Vajra had bolstered his Ferocious Warrior prowess, making his physical body unparalleled and his martial talent skyrocket.
Yet, despite this, Li Che still couldn't deduce what the third Dao Fruit would be.
There was an anticipation and excitement, like opening a mystery box.
【Pure Mind (Dao Fruit): A clear mind, like the Bodhi, untouched by dust, cultivating a pure nature.】
As his mind fluctuated, the hints and introduction regarding Pure Mind appeared before his eyes.
"A clear mind... like the Bodhi."
"Untouched by dust, cultivating a pure nature..."
Li Che murmured the description, his breath quickening slightly.
"Cultivating... the divine nature?"
In this realm, there are three paths to cultivation: Body Refinement, Inner Strength, and Divinity.
Divinity is the most challenging but also the most extraordinary, possessing immense power.
To cultivate divinity, one requires not only divine cultivation methods but also the need to refine the body and inner strength to a powerful extent. In simple terms, body refinement and inner strength are the foundations for cultivating divinity.
Li Che had once curiously asked Xu You about divinity cultivation, and Xu You didn't hide anything.
"Body refinement requires reaching the Blood Exchange Realm. Only in this realm can one stimulate the five viscera and six bowels with blood to absorb and store divinity. As for inner strength, it needs to reach a certain level before one can cultivate divinity."
"What is divinity? All things in heaven and earth have spirits, but only humans possess a unique divine nature. By absorbing and cultivating this divine nature, one can transcend the mortal realm. This is the root of humanity's superiority over other creatures!"
Xu You explained to Li Che.
"Human divinity can be divided into seven emotions and six desires: joy, anger, sorrow, fear, and surprise. Each of the seven emotions can be considered a major category of divinity, and the six desires can also be distinguished, but the seven emotions are more common."
"Each major category of divinity can be further divided into branches. Each branch is like a lineage, such as the Shi Family's Wrathful Cry Ghost-Suppressing divine foundation, which belongs to the lineage of Sadness Divinity, or the Divine Inspector Zhang Xiangyang of the Inner City Magistrate's Office, whose Fear Reversal Light divine foundation is of the Fear Divinity lineage."
A gentle breeze stirred, carrying the chill of the approaching winter.
Li Che felt the newly acquired Dao Fruit, and as it stimulated him, his six senses seemed to sharpen, allowing him to capture the stray divinity in the world.
In his eyes, many divine natures emitted a faint light, like fireflies in the night sky, floating endlessly, slowly gathering around him and permeating his body.
Finally, they accumulated within his pure mind.
"Can the Dao Fruit, Pure Mind, allow me to cultivate divinity?"
Li Che's heart was filled with surprise.
Xu You had said that the power of divinity cultivators far surpassed that of body refinement and inner strength warriors. If one could forge a divine foundation, it would be even more terrifying. Unless facing a Pulse Connectivity Master, one would undoubtedly be easily crushed by a divine foundation cultivator.
Divine techniques were invaluable, the foundation of a clan, and even Xuji rarely imparted divine cultivation methods to outsiders. Even becoming a Master Woodcarver would only grant access to the most basic divine techniques.
"Xu You once explained the stages of divinity cultivation to me. The first stage is cultivating the divine nature, and with one cultivation, one's body won't be weakened by the Blood Exchange Realm. Even at the peak of this stage, one can rival a Pulse Warrior. The second stage is forging the divine foundation, establishing the roots of divinity, transcending mortal nature, and even a Pulse Warrior can be suppressed!"
Li Che took a deep breath, his mind recalling Xu You's words about divinity cultivation.
...
【Name: Li Che】
【Bond: Li Nuanxi (Daughter)】
【Dao Fruits: Celestial Craft (Lv3, 5%), Dragon Elephant Vajra (Lv1, 70%), Pure Mind (Lv1, 0%)】
【Primordial Technique: Celestial Craft · Thousand Analyzing Hands】
...
Before his eyes, a panel appeared.
Over the past year, since reaching Lv3, the growth of the Dao Fruit, Celestial Craft, had slowed down, partly because Li Che had been focusing more on martial cultivation.
However, the main reason was the extreme difficulty of the mechanism that Li Che intended to create.
The "Tang Family Mechanism Manual" recorded twelve mechanisms, three of which were more basic, and Li Che had already completed them.
The remaining nine were all related to blood, inner strength, and even...divinity.
Thus, the difficulty skyrocketed, and it took Li Che a year to accomplish it, fortunately with the assistance of a level 3 "Celestial Craft" Dao Fruit. With the collection of materials, he finally managed to create the seventh mechanism in the "Tang Family Mechanism Manual."
"Wooden Raven," ranked seventh in the manual, is a mechanism beast that Li Che painstakingly crafted.
As for his physical cultivation, with the martial talent enhanced by the "Dragon Elephant Vajra" Dao Fruit, Li Che's cultivation advanced from Perfect Tendon Opening to Bone Tempering.
Bone Tempering Realm is a water-grinding realm, requiring not only daily cultivation but also a large amount of dietary supplements.
Li Che's Bone Tempering technique was purchased from the market square, titled "Eighteen Tiger Bones Soaking Refinement Technique," costing eight hundred taels, and it was sold by the same merchant who provided the "Xu Family Nine Sinews Technique."
Unfortunately, the merchant couldn't obtain a superior inner strength technique.
In the midst of the snowstorm, Li Che rose, his bones cracking like firecrackers exploding. With a punch, he struck like a long spear, seemingly ripping through the air! The martial skill "White Tiger Storm Wind Fist" had already been mastered by Li Che to the level of a master, just a step away from reaching the Transformation Realm.
All martial skills, according to their level of mastery, can be categorized into beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, and transformation realms!
Once the transformation realm is achieved, it can even manipulate the divinity between heaven and earth, greatly enhancing the power of martial skills!
"Perfect Bone Tempering, master-level fist technique, and master-level bone-shattering spear..."
"Now, even without activating the Vajra Transformation of the Dragon Elephant Vajra, my cultivation in the Flying Thunder Outer City is already top-tier..."
A faint smile appeared on Li Che's lips.
However, this was only in the Flying Thunder Outer City. In the outer city, Bone Tempering Warriors could show off their prowess, but in the inner city...not to mention the young masters of the major aristocratic families, who had been nourished with dietary supplements since childhood and cultivated superior techniques.
Whether it was body refinement or inner strength, they far surpassed the outer city warriors, after all...only in the Blood Exchange Realm could one nurture divinity, becoming a Divinity Cultivator of the Nourish Nature Realm.
"If I activate the Vajra Transformation...I wonder if I can crush a Blood Exchange Warrior?"
Li Che pondered, as he hadn't crossed blades with a Blood Exchange Warrior before and wasn't sure of their strength.
The explosive increase in physical strength brought by the Vajra Transformation should be able to reach the level of breaking through all defenses with sheer force.
"It's a pity that the enhancement of the Dragon Elephant Vajra is too slow. To reach level 2, perhaps my body's martial cultivation needs to break through to the Blood Exchange Realm..."
After playing with Xu Ji's Eight-Linked Bone Shattering Spear in the courtyard for a while, Li Che sat cross-legged, calming his mind, and prepared to try the effect of the Pure Mind Dao Fruit.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, allowing the falling snow to accumulate on his body without moving.
His mind immersed, he entered the Pure Mind that pulsated within his body, connecting with the divinity between heaven and earth.
One moment, two moments, three moments...
Li Che's thoughts became clear, like an old scholar.
A thick layer of snow piled up on his body.
An hour later...
Li Che finally opened his eyes, and a faint white light flickered in his eyes.
[Dao Fruit: Pure Mind (lv1, 1%)]
Although Li Che hadn't cultivated any divinity techniques, the Pure Mind helped him absorb the divinity between heaven and earth, similar to the effect of a divinity cultivation method.
"The divinity I cultivated is pure and clean, without flaws or impurities, not belonging to any divinity lineage..."
Li Che's eyebrows furrowed...
"Then...how should this be calculated?"
"In the future...what kind of divine foundation should I forge?"
Suddenly, Li Che seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes flickered...
His heart beat, and ambition surged!
