1196 Everlasting Empyrean
Wang Wei shook his head, thinking these people had nothing better to do than just wait. 'Maybe I should create a countdown clock to my departure, giving them hope and something to do.' He immediately gave up the idea when it popped into his head for two reasons.
Firstly, he did not know when his cultivation would finish and he could ascend. Secondly, limiting his presence in the world was essential to prevent True Heavenly Dao from exiling him to the upper dimension.
So, after checking that there were no problems with the world, he continued his retreat. Wang Wei was already under the Bodhi Tree, so he summoned the Grand Dao Source Tree before putting on the Civilization Crown as assistance. He was still in awe of how much luck he had condensed and how potent it was.
He then activated his [Three Paths-Three Selves Art] for a second boost in his cultivation. The Future Buddha Selves looked into the future, the Taoist Self used their Quantum Computer Deduction Ability, and the Devil Selves started using various means to boost their cultivation - including optimizing the use of the crown.
The Devil Selves then accessed all the incense, spiritual power, Dream Power, and World Source for their boost. Wang Wei also took out the Fate Essence he was condensing from secretly manipulating the fates of the lower dimension. However, he still hadn't finished his preparations.
Wang Wei activated all 1.269 trillion spirit particles that composed his soul and divided them into three. One part focused on using the fruits from the Grand Dao Source Tree, the second part focused on Chen Tong's sermon, and the last third started comprehending all the cultivation techniques of the lower dimension. Once that is finished, that section will focus on the different laws of the Endless Void and converting all the other sermons in the banquet into his cultivation.
Finally, Wang Wei used his last preparation - merit. One of the main effects of his Golden Body was to increase cultivation speed, and he still had plenty more merit in reserve. With all these benefits, Wang Wei dived into his cultivation. The process was enjoyable beyond words. Cultivating in his realm is usually slow, tedious, and frustrating. However, with all these benefits, the process became straightforward.
Wang Wei's cultivation level rose from the initial 32% to 69.999% in a very short period before finally encountering the wall. He wondered whether he could break through without the Genesis Fruit and sell it at a higher price. Sadly, even with his talent and Perfect Foundation, the bottleneck stopped him; he could tell he would not break it without a few hundred Yuan Epochs, and such timing could be described as monstrous.
He no longer hesitated and swallowed the fruit. A potent herbal power rushed through his body and soul, making him feel lighter, carefree, and in tune with Heaven and Earth. Wang Wei felt an explosion inside his Sea of Consciousness, and without even noticing it, his cultivation reached 70%.
Wang Wei immediately felt an enormous pressure on his soul and mind, and he knew that if his soul and Dao Heart did not reach the standard, he would die under the weight of his own Grand Dao Source. The pressure disappeared as soon as it appeared due to his foundation, meaning he could immediately move to the next steps.
His achievement of 70% Grand Dao Source activated a mechanism. Wang Wei's spirit found himself in a void facing a clone of himself. His first thought was whether he was facing another Heart Devil before remembering that stage of his breakthrough he was.
'My [True Self],' he quickly figured out. The person before him looked exactly like him, but Wang Wei could feel he was different somehow. So, he closed his eyes and focused on that difference. After what felt like an eternity and an instant, Wang Wei understood.
'Hinduism was correct when they said the true self was eternal, but Buddhism, which believes the self was ever-changing, is also accurate. There is a saying that encapsulates these two opposite ideologies: the only eternal thing is change.'
Wang Wei's mind worked tirelessly to understand the concept presented to him. Although he had more time than others, he did not want to waste it.
'After condensing my [True Self], I will transcend, no, escape the shackles of Samsara. I will no longer be restricted by the power of reincarnation. I can reincarnate as often as I wish, and my memories will remain intact.'
From now on, he no longer needed any techniques or means to reincarnate with his memories. From now on, even a Yama King cannot block his memories; they can temporarily seal them but not erase them. More importantly, even if they sealed them, the present ones will immediately become the main personality after he remembers them no matter what his sealed-self experiences.
Wang Wei sighed to himself. He remembered the trouble he went into to protect his Earth memories when he traveled through Primordial Chaos. Now, this ability has become natural and passive.
Wang Wei checked his body. He did not experience any physical or noticeable change after this realization. However, he felt that his memories, perceptions, views, connections, and identities had sublimated to a higher state of being. freёweɓnovel.com
'Is it done?' he thought before shaking his head; he was missing one more step. But what was it? He focused on the example before him and soon received his answer:
