Exploring Immortality Cultivation

Honestly, before today, Wang Qi had always subconsciously overlooked Su Junyu's combat abilities.

Up to now, Wang Qi had only seen three of the Five Absolute True Disciples. The late Li Ziye was a Heavenly Sword Cultivator, bestowed with the Heavenly Sword, and could crush Modern Cultivators of the same realm. Xiang Qi might not be outstanding among the True Inheritors, but she could still overpower Su Junyu in a fight.

Plus, with Su Junyu's gamer otaku style, Wang Qi would always, intentionally or unintentionally, overlook Su Junyu's identity as a True Inheritor of Wanfa.

Yet, Xiang Qi herself had never underestimated Su Junyu. She knew very well that the only reason she could overpower Su Junyu was that his cultivation method wasn't suited for trivial skirmishes. If the two were to fight for life and death, Su Junyu's chances of winning were higher.

Su Junyu's mental method was the "Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique," the supreme mental method of the Wanfa Sect. This mental method couldn't be practiced directly; instead, one needed to practice both the "Yao Ding Calculating Scripture" and the "Book of Geometry" to the Foundation Establishment Level, then merge them.

The Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique possessed powerful abstract abilities, with computing power surpassing even the Yao Ding Calculating Scripture. And this powerful technique wasn't even the core of Su Junyu's pursuit of the Dao. His foundation lay in the great skill supported by the strong abilities of the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique—the "Bai Ze's Algorithm."

Knowing all current affairs, one can trace the past causes and seek the future effects. The principle of this divine skill was to predict the course of battle by knowing more conditions.

This law required powerful computing and perceptive abilities. The Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique's computing ability was unparalleled in the world. And to support such computing power, the soul power enhancement of the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique was second only to the soul-focused cultivation technique of the Yangshen Pavilion, making it a perfect match with Bai Ze's Algorithm.

However, both the Xiangyu Heavenly Position Technique and Bai Ze's Algorithm belonged to extremely difficult cultivation methods, and Su Junyu's strength was limited to his predictive abilities. He didn't have much time to practice other combat skills.

But predictive abilities must be matched with diverse methods to achieve the best effect. To overcome the drawback of limited techniques, Su Junyu specially crafted a magic artifact. Each card in this set of artifacts was commissioned from familiar disciples of other sects, with each card representing a great spell.

However, because the spells were not cultivated by himself, even if the power was the same, Su Junyu could not fully unleash the true essence of the magic. Moreover, after using the spells on each card, they had to be nurtured for a period. It was for this reason that Su Junyu could never go all out in private sparring—after all, who would you cry to if you used up all your spells in a non-lethal sparring and needed them in a life or death battle?

To save the assets of the Immortal Alliance, Su Junyu really went all out this time.

Su Junyu's current battle scene sounded dazzling, but in reality, it was quite boring—at least that's how it seemed to Wang Qi and the other three. Their Spiritual Sense could only extend about thirty feet, and they couldn't see the Demon Beasts that Su Junyu was guiding and killing. To them, it looked like Su Junyu was just casting spells in all directions.

Wang Qi, finding it dull, nudged Wu Fan beside him with his elbow, "Hey, what do you think caused that earthquake just now?"

Wu Fan said, "Eh? Wasn't it just a normal earthquake?"

Wang Qi shook his head, "I don't think so. Not to mention, that tremor just now actually damaged the array here! Look at the ground, not even a significant crack, obviously not a major earthquake. And such an earthquake actually damaged an array that's been running for hundreds of years?"

Wu Fan shook his head to indicate he didn't know, but Wu Shiqin seemed quite interested in this topic, "Maybe something with great power is sealed under Xin Mountain, and that was it trying to break the seal?"

Mao Zimiao apparently got scared by this terrifying speculation, "Really, meow?"

Wang Qi pressed down on her head, "Azimiao, how dumb do you have to be to believe this violent woman whose head is stuffed with stories? This is like a classic storybook scenario!"

"Don't touch my head, meow!" Mao Zimiao quickly covered her ears, then looked at Wang Qi, "But how do you explain the earthquake we just felt?"

Wu Shiqin explained, "Two thousand years ago, Xin Mountain was where the Holy Infant Sect imprisoned Master Ge Bai. It was only after the Heavenly Selection God Monarch, who had just reached the Carefree state, fought against the six Ancient Method Mahayanas and split Xin Mountain open, that Master Ge Bai was rescued. That's also why the North Slope of Xin Mountain is rather steep. So I think, even if there were secret prisons underneath Xin Mountain..."

"Even if there were secret prisons underneath Xin Mountain, they should have been broken by the Heavenly Selection God Monarch. Don't forget, Heavenly Selection God Monarch was breaking out of prison forcefully, rescuing the Master of Xuanxing Temple."

Wu Fan also joined the discussion, "I don't think it's very likely either. A Carefree Practitioner eliminating an Ancient Method Mahayana or a Peak Level Demon Beast is not difficult; why bother with the elaborate sealing?"

Wu Shiqin still held her view, "Maybe it's a Modern Carefree that committed taboo? Back in the chaotic times of the Demon Emperor from the Xi Clan, he persuaded more than one Carefree Practitioner."

This matter is related to the old affair with Old Hai?

Daoist of Uncertainty had lived in the same village as Wang Qi for ten years, and although he hadn't revealed his identity, the two were acquainted. Interested in this matter, Wang Qi asked, "The Great Grandmasters and Carefree Travels who assisted the Demon Emperor, did they all have an end?"

Wu Shiqin nodded, "Most of them have taken up some duties for the Immortal Alliance to redeem their sins. As for the ones who were stubborn, I actually don't know much about them. However, it seems Yue Siku from the Wanfa Sect was captured and then went missing. Daoist of Uncertainty from the Mysterious Palace was spotted two months ago, but his current status is unknown."

Wu Fan was startled, "Could it be that Master Hai was sealed in there, and what just happened was his dying struggle?"

Wang Qi shook his head, "Master Hai has been one of the most gifted cultivators of the Immortal Alliance for hundreds of years; the alliance would probably prefer to capture him alive."

The four's conversation began to drift from serious discussion to casual chat filled with conspiracy theories and gossip, and the atmosphere grew livelier. Unbeknownst to them, an unforeseen crisis was quietly approaching.

The problem arose with Su Junyu.

After all, Su Junyu's Bai Ze's Algorithm was only at the Qi Cultivation Level and couldn't predict every move of the beast swarm. When he was using a Thunder Spell to drive the Thundering Giant Antelope towards the north of Jiachen Lake, the Deer King suddenly went mad, withstood the Thunder Spell, and charged in Su Junyu's direction.

Seeing this, the rest of the antelope herd followed suit. Su Junyu was startled and hastily cast several spells to block the herd. But this Deer King couldn't be stopped by any means!
