Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453: Cultivation Retreat

The Time Flow Formation of the Dao Opening Sect was a world as large as a Middle Thousand World. However, this world did not have anything like forests, mountains, oceans, etc.

It was a green world; the sky and the earth were all green, making the entire thing somewhat eerie. Only two people lived inside that world: Wang Tian and Wang Wei, and they separated themselves by a great distance.

Wang Tian dug a cave underground to reforge his Primordial Spirit and enter the Duyi Realm. Meanwhile, Wang Wei created a small cottage with the Heaven Concealing Array surrounding it.

He wanted to use this seclusion to catch up with his peers in cultivation.

Once the retreat began, he did not immediately enter the next realm but ensured that he indeed cultivated his Yang God to the absolute peak. Then, he began to break the shackles on his body.

However, at this time, he wanted to curse out loud. He had 3000 shackles on his body. Most cultivators only had dozens or more, and powerful body cultivators could have a few hundred.

And he had 3000 of them because of how powerful his fleshly body was. After briefly complaining, he got back to business.

If he were an average person, so many shackles would be a burden to him.

However, many Emperor Lineages developed a secret technique to give their Heaven Chosens an edge. Usually, cultivators would just break the shackles and nothing else; that's how this stage of the Primordial Spirit operates.

But the secret technique allowed Heaven Chosens to use the energy generated when the shackles broke to do many things, mainly to nourish the soul or increase the strength of the fleshly body.

Wang Wei observed all the 3000 chains surrounding his body; then, he used his origin essence, the spiritual energy inside his cottage, and soul power to break one after another.

He used the energy generated by the chains to increase the strength of his fleshly body. When it comes to his soul, he always had the advantage in his cultivation journey. And unfortunately, most Soul Cultivation has little to no effect on him, and the same was for this energy.

However, his fleshly body was another situation. He will take any chance to increase it, given how difficult it is to walk on the True Dao of Power.

Nevertheless, he still used a small part of the energy to light up more spirit particles.

Wang Wei did not know how long it took him to remove all 3000 shackles. But the moment he finished, his Primordial Spirit left his body without any restriction or power to yank it back.

It flew freely in the sky for a few minutes before returning to his body; he did not discover any discomfort.

The Primordial Spirit Realm is very significant in the path of cultivation. The first two stages–Yin God and Yang God–ensured that a cultivator's soul could survive under the sun or in the Yang Material World.

However, the soul is still bound to the body at that time. Unless destroyed, it cannot stay too long outside the body. So, the Shackle Removing Stage is necessary.

Wang Wei walked out of the cottage, clenched his hand, then threw a punch.

Boom!

The entire world trembled, but only for a brief moment. A mysterious force suddenly erupted and erased the power being that punch.

'The Power of Time?' thought Wang Wei before focusing on something else. His physical strength had increased by 7 Dragon Force. After reinforcing his foundation and condensing the Essence Flower, he had 10 Dragon Force.

After Duel Cultivating with Wu Hong and opening up 320 Acupoints, he gained an additional 30 Dragon Force. Now, he had 47 Dragon Force or 47 quintillion tons.

Next, he checked his spirit particles, and now, he saw 20 billion lit up, which is twice the previous number. Then, he returned to his retreat.

The next stage in the Primordial Spirit Realm is the Three Immortal Soul Stage. The Soul consists of the Three Immortal Souls (Hun Souls) and Seven Physical Souls (Po Souls).

The physical soul is the yin in nature and controls the body–including the five internal organs and Nine Orifices. The Po souls governed health or the body's instincts to fight diseases.

For example, the "Thief Swallower" is the Po soul that regulates the body's immune system. The "Flying Poison" controls the body temperature, and the "Hidden Arrow" controls digestion.

Medicine is the primary purpose of the Physical Soul amongst mortals, and when it comes to cultivators, they have little to no effect because of how their bodies have evolved with each realm.

In the Origin System, tempering the body in the Divine Body Realm allowed the Physical Souls to combine; this is another way for cultivators to evolve as higher beings or species.

In the Primordial Spirit Realm, it is the turn of the Three Immortal Souls: [The Secret Spirit], [The Fetus's Light], and the [Bright Spirit].

Wang Wei focused intensely on his Primordial Spirit, entering a profound state of meditation. He reflected on himself, his actions, motives, and goals in life.

And at some point, he discovered three threads connected from his Primordial Spirit to three illusory figures of himself.

Numerous colors surrounded the first figure while rotating around him. Each color represented a different emotion: this was the [Secret Spirit],

It determined a person's mood, likes and dislikes, and what kind of person they attracted to–both romantically and platonically. In general, this part of the soul correlates to people's emotions and how they change or manifest when interacting with others.

'This Immortal Soul might also be connected to Karma. Using it, I could make someone falls in love with another person and connect them through Karma.'

After comprehending this, Wang Wei could now use his Karma Ability to create Love Bond. If a Karmic Love Thread connected two people who already loved each other, they would never separate unless the thread is cut off–even if they went through reincarnation.
