Chapter 919 - 406

Like the "Great Freedom Celestial Demon Body," "Other Transformation Freedom Divination Chapter" also contains the word "freedom."

Freedom and ease, unrestricted by disaster, lifespan, and rules—perhaps this is the highest pursuit of all cultivators.

After Chu Xiu browsed through it, a look of joy appeared on his face.

"This cultivation technique is compatible with the Yama Scripture! At least in the early stages, they do not conflict!"

There are sure to be conflicts between different cultivation techniques, especially since both the Yama Scripture and the Divination Chapter are fundamental techniques for Divine Soul cultivation, typically allowing one to choose only one.

However, Chu Xiu found a common ground for fusion between the two!

For instance, the first step of cultivation for both is to strengthen one’s Divine Soul to reach a realm where it can roam during the day.

This step could be skipped by Chu Xiu due to his prior cultivation of the Yama Scripture.

The following steps are similarly Visualization and Divine Arrival.

The difference is that the Yama Scripture’s visualization is of the ultimate imagined creatures optimized and refined by countless Great Power Cultivators over millions of years in the Demon Sect, while the Divination Chapter visualizes various Dao Maps such as the Innate Eight Diagrams and the Five Elements, which imply natural rules.

In the subsequent Divine Arrival, what transforms is not an imagined ghost but the "true self," the most primitive and natural form of the Divine Soul.

Thus, compared to the Yama Scripture, after completing the first stage of the Divination Chapter, although one cannot gain those powerful divine techniques, the sensitivity and affinity of the Divine Soul to Spiritual Power are far superior.

Subsequent is the manifestation of "Other Transformation," divided into three realms: Transformation of Spirit, Transformation of Techniques, and Transformation of Dao, each with four stages.

Devour Spirit, Merge Spirit, Control Spirit, Primordial Spirit.

Feeling Technique, Stealing Technique, Acting Technique, Dharma Aspect.

Path of Sowing, Path of Holding, Path of Inference, Other Transformation Freedom!

The more Chu Xiu read, the more astonished he became. By the time he reached the Transformation of Techniques stage, the Primordial Spirit could already replicate the myriad laws of the world for its own use. If one perfected the Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect, they could cast myriad spells with a single thought, with energy operations flowing seamlessly without any loss. Even a cultivator deeply specialized in Five Elements Magic could not compare!

By the Transformation of Dao stage, one could even evolve rules for personal use!

The final Other Transformation Freedom is an incredibly powerful Ultimate Divine Technique. Throughout the Demon Sect’s history, only a few people have cultivated this technique to completion, and each one was a figure who dominated their era! It is rumored that with this technique, even immortals from the higher realms cannot contend, representing true "freedom"!

"Although this technique doesn’t seem to have much combat power in the early stages, its control over the world’s Spiritual Power in the later stages is far beyond that of the Yama Scripture."

"No matter how intricate or perfect the ghosts created by human effort, they can’t compare to the Dao inherent in nature..."

Chu Xiu stroked his chin and quickly made a judgment. Although the Yama Scripture was already the top-tier heritage, it couldn’t compare to the Divination Chapter that leads directly to the Dao.

Of course, what is referred to as the later stages are realms beyond Chu Xiu’s current imagination. He didn’t need to consider much about that.

"For now, the two cultivation techniques can be practiced simultaneously. After all, the path of ghosts and gods is also a form of Dao Technique, and since the Divination Chapter can transform myriad laws, it can naturally coexist."

However, whether the two cultivation techniques can merge at deeper levels, Chu Xiu was uncertain and didn’t bother to consider it too much.

At least he could confirm that the early-stage cultivation remained in the realm of "techniques" and wouldn’t affect the root, preventing a situation where mutual influence led to a failure to reach perfection in either heritage.

Thinking of this, he stopped thinking about it and started adding points directly!

A whopping seventy million Cause and Effect Points, Chu Xiu had never fought such an affluent battle!

He adeptly sat cross-legged, and as the Cause and Effect Points in his palms began burning, a plethora of insights flooded his mind!

Almost instantly, he completed the night roaming and day roaming stages of the Divination Chapter’s cultivation, consuming less than a hundred points!

"But something still feels missing...."

He paused for a moment to remember, realizing it was the lack of a sound indicating a realm breakthrough; these things were gone after going dataless.

With a slightly amused shake of his head, Chu Xiu re-engaged in cultivation.

The subsequent visualization and Divine Arrival didn’t take much effort either, resolved with two thousand Cause and Effect Points.

Although Chu Xiu had already practiced these two steps in advance, the different visualizations and Divine Arrivals of the Divination Chapter still led to a certain degree of growth in his Divine Soul.

"According to the datafication metrics, it’s roughly around two thousand points."

Although not much, it made Chu Xiu quite satisfied.

Next was the second step, the Transformation of Spirit!

This step was not as easy as before and had to start from scratch.

"A powerful Divine Soul must possess its own energy."

Otherwise, if one had to burn Divine Soul Power to defeat small monsters, it would be pointless.

The Yin Messenger cultivated through the Yama Scripture was no exception. Even if it detached completely from the body, it still possessed strong power, capable even of devouring a Ghost King whole!

Techniques like Soul Hook or Ghost’s Wail could be driven by the energy of the Divine Soul’s body.

However, the Yama Scripture’s mode of energy absorption is similar to that of ghosts, integrating power into its own Soul Body, only capable of manifesting inherent divine techniques.

Thus, when Chu Xiu wanted to pursue the Awakening Space, he was forced to spend Divine Soul Power directly to propel the physical body swiftly through the cosmos.

The Divination Chapter was entirely different; the Transformation of Spirit stage required storing a large amount of Spiritual Power in the Divine Soul!

Not in any specially transformed form but in the pure state of highly condensed Spiritual Power!
