- Chapter 1221 81: Ascending to Immortality

Inner Core Skill begins with Refining Essence to Qi, then Refining Qi into God, Refining God and Returning to Void, and finally Refining Void and Integration; each step is indispensable and each step is the foundation of becoming an immortal.
Wang Sheng’s path, although with slight changes, still follows the road of Inner Core Skill overall.
However, it is precisely because of these changes that his foundation is immensely solid.
The step from mortal to immortal in Inner Core Skill is to fully utilize this solid foundation.
And this is the first step to ascend to immortality.
Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, Five Qi Chaoyuan.
“Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, Five Qi Chaoyuan, unite all my powers, undergo sublimation, truly change the essence of life, and become a creature of another dimension.”
Three Flowers Gathering, the so-called three flowers are Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
Essence is the Jade Flower, Qi is the Golden Flower, Spirit is the Nine Flower.
The gathering of the three flowers, Essence Qi Spirit, at the Xuanyuan Acupoint is Gathering.
“The so-called three flowers essentially are a manifestation of my cultivation, reaching the pinnacle of Essence Qi Spirit can culminate into Jade Flower, Golden Flower, and Nine Flower.”
Wang Sheng felt his body, constantly mobilizing energy.
“Essence is hence the Essence in Refining Essence to Qi, which is the foundation of the human body, Blood Qi.”
“For me, with Blood Qi entering the body, the Jade Flower is the flower of the flesh, representing my physical cultivation, the ultimate achievement of my physical path.”
Wang Sheng reflected on his cultivation.
Hundred days of Foundation Establishment, improving physique, birthing the first trace of Qi-Blood, possessing formidable martial strength, overcoming the first crisis, continuously improving afterwards, eventually developing essence blood, forming the ‘Medicine Embryo,’ and a lifespan of three hundred years, marking the beginning of his step into the immortal path.
The subsequent step is to continuously refine the Medicine Embryo, enhancing physique.
The process of enhancing physique is unending, the presence of Ba Duan Jin allows his physique to continuously improve, evolving into the Lifeless Immortal Body.
“Today, I shall use the Immortal Body to condense the Essence Flower.”
The Immortal Body surges, all powers condense into one, under Wang Sheng’s control, his Xuanyuan Acupoint slowly condenses into an illusory flower.
The ‘flower’ of the three flowers actually connects to ‘brilliance,’ meaning magnificence, describing Essence at its utmost, a state with no external manifestation, but at his level, cultivation is subjective, akin to the non-existent Great Tao, what he sees as the Great Tao River thus becomes the Great Tao River.
Thus, the Essence Flower, also known as the Jade Flower, is an illusory flower.
The power of the Lifeless Immortal Body condenses into the Essence Flower.
As this flower emerges, it’s as if a new sun is rising, dazzling and radiant, seems to illuminate the entire Great Tao River, fully reflecting the intensity of Blood Qi.
“Then the Qi Flower.”
Qi, in essence, is energy.
When Essence is driven to its peak, Refining Essence leads to Qi.
The human body’s Essence forms the Medicine Embryo, which ultimately refines into the Great Medicine, the Great Medicine then merges with that bit of spirit light, giving rise to the energy of Inner Core Skill, Qi.
And by continually evolving, Qi eventually forms the power Wang Sheng now has, Immortal Force, or Pseudo Immortal Power, not yet true immortality, only the Lifeless Immortal Body deserves to truly be called ‘immortal.’
Even so, Immortal Force is a manifestation of its extreme evolution.
Immortal Force boils, continuously condensing.
Shortly, beside the Essence Flower, another illusory flower appears, the Qi Flower, also known as the Golden Flower.
The Golden Flower emits a gentle glow, with the Divine Light of Immortal Force illuminating everything, an overwhelming power that can suppress all, destroy all methods, and beautifully complements the Jade Flower.
Condensing the Qi Flower took more effort than the Essence Flower, also more troublesome, yet there were no surprises.
“The Lifeless Immortal Body saved me many detours, for it is already a form of Immortal Force, the Essence Flower arguably naturally existed.”
“It seems the Divine Flower will be much harder.”
The Divine Flower is said to be the most crucial in the cultivation path of Inner Core Skill.
The ultimate goal of Inner Core Skill is to refine the Spirit.
Even though Wang Sheng’s cultivation path deviated slightly due to progress, with the Lifeless Immortal Body’s Essence Flower and prematurely cultivated Immortal Force aiding the Qi Flower, it still provided some assistance despite incomplete Immortal Force.
Only the Yang Spirit, although enhanced by the Lifeless Immortal Body, matching the body in capability, essentially there was still some gap.
Using the pull of the Essence Flower and Qi Flower, Wang Sheng drew upon the power of the Yang Spirit.
The Yang Spirit became intensely active, having long exited the Xuanyuan Acupoint, it returned, continuously nourished by the body and Immortal Force.
Divine, is the Great Medicine Qi permeating the body, reflecting the Spiritual Body, merging with it forms the Primordial Spirit, which with continuous cultivation finally forms the Yang Spirit, also known as the foundation of becoming an immortal.
With unceasing nourishment, mysterious light begins to manifest, like the first ray of sunlight at dawn, akin to the moon in the night sky, its radiance soft, bringing peace to all creatures, seen as a home.
As Wang Sheng’s power slowly operated, the Divine Flower also came into place, alongside the Essence Flower and Qi Flower.
Three Flowers Returned to the Gathering.
In an instant, the entire Great Tao River seemed to change color, its dazzling light became soft and mysterious, as though celebrating this great moment.
Above Wang Sheng, gradually appeared splendid auspicious clouds, resplendent with a myriad of colors, a magnificent treasure of the world.
Three Flowers Gathering, the Great Tao even celebrates it.
Subsequently, the three flowers bloom together, a massive halo appears surrounding Wang Sheng’s body, composed of the radiance of the three flowers, dazzling and brilliant, like a new sun rising, mesmerizing, leaving none able to look away.
