Chapter 1390: Chapter 415: [Xie Jiuyan, Bearing the Dignity of a Grandmaster] (Part 2)

If everything goes smoothly, perhaps in another two or three hundred years, with my talent, I might be able to break through the chasm.

Even if I still can’t break through, at least I can live another lifetime, another two or three hundred years.

The good news is: this plan is quite good, and logically sound.

The bad news is: he doesn’t know the spell for possession!

To be precise, he doesn’t know any spells at all.

The cultivation heritage of this world is incomplete. Even a reputable sect like Chu Keqing’s only has a cultivation technique for transporting primordial qi along with a set of talisman art. As for spells, there aren’t any at all.

Otherwise, back then, when Chu Keqing saw Chen Yan effortlessly using spells, she wouldn’t have been so shocked and amazed.

And this unfamiliar cultivator was even less than Chu Keqing—he only had a cultivation technique in his hands, with no spells or even talisman art.

The stranger spent his entire life cultivating alone, so after thinking for a long time, he made a decision.

It’s okay not to know spells, I can... create my own!

Create my own!

·

He started his research, living deep in the mountains, delving bit by bit into the mysteries of the world, studying the flow of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and attempting to create and utilize changes.

During the hundred years between his two hundredth and three hundredth birthdays, he indeed created many miracles.

Through the circulation of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, after years of meditative research, he unintentionally became proficient and understood how to use different materials to guide the flow of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and interfere with human senses...

This thing, Chen Yan was familiar with, this thing was called an "Array"!

Although it was a basic array, it was nevertheless created from scratch without guidance.

At the same time, he conducted research on his own body, combining it with the process of nourishing the physical body with primordial qi, experiencing various disturbances and tests during this integration.

Then, he also created a few small spells.

For example, using primordial qi to stimulate the growth of the body, a spell to heal physical injuries.

For example, using primordial qi to manipulate the body for large-scale leaps and bounds, even for short distances of flight.

For example, using primordial qi to control certain forces, retrieving objects from a distance, or multitasking, replacing hands and feet with primordial qi—in the end, he even could sit still and use self-created spells to clean and tidy up the surroundings.

In a hundred years, he managed through exploration and research to create over ten spells on his own.

This achievement, if spread to this world’s native cultivators, would be utterly shocking!!

To know, Chu Keqing or countless native cultivators have tried but cannot succeed! You either have it or you don’t!

This person astonishingly self-taught, improved the essence nourishing body’s process, and self-created spells like these without guidance.

Chen Yan could only sigh upon hearing this.

The posture of a grandmaster! Absolutely the posture of a grandmaster!!

·

However, when creating the spell of "possession," he finally, still failed.

Because such a spell is even more profound and more complex, and it involved realms that this stranger, in a lifetime of cultivation, had never reached.

Primordial Spirit, Divine Sense!

Even though his talent was extraordinary, and his aptitude comparable to an immortal.

Even though he spent decades starting from scratch, research completely unknown fields like the cultivator’s spirit, primordial spirit, divine sense, and so on, which were utterly blank to him.

But he still failed.

However... this failure was also a miracle of failure!

Because his research started from zero.

To Chen Yan, such research would be akin to letting a primitive man without any mathematical foundation attempt to solve a high-level math problem without even knowing the multiplication tables.

Why say that despite failing, it was a miraculous failure?

Because he was very close to succeeding!

He surprisingly managed to transfer his consciousness into Wu’s body!

But...

He couldn’t fully integrate.

·

Returning to the world, heading to that town, indulging in revelry, lust, and dissipation was the stranger’s final attempt concerning possession.

But in the end, he told Wu a fact: during those days, he actually felt the same as Wu.

Like a first-person view, only able to see oneself doing things, but actually not feeling anything.

Drinking alcohol, no taste of wine.

Smoking, no taste of smoke.

Even when sleeping with a woman, there was no pleasure.

Indulging in gambling and debauchery couldn’t excite his nerves to any thrill.

His consciousness, although temporarily stored in Wu’s body, couldn’t obtain any feedback from the various sensory stimuli from this physical body.

It was like... temporarily depositing in this body.

And this body could never truly integrate with his consciousness.

And unable to integrate, his consciousness was akin to a rootless water.

Over time, it would slowly run dry.

The depletion of consciousness, for him, equates to: death.

·

The stranger told Wu many, many things, recounting his life’s ordeals.

Wu naturally listened, spellbound!

For him, the first half of life, he believed in science, believed in modern technology, believed in suppressive firepower, believed in hot weapons to overturn everything, believed in the equalizer of carbon-based life forms!

However, after the appearance of this "immortal," in just these few days, he had already completely overturned Wu’s worldview.
