Chapter 73: About to become a spirit Nascent Soul

"Your father gave a bitter smile and told you that it was a remnant consciousness of the inheritance master, which has now completely dissipated."

"He explained that the master of the inheritance was a significant figure in the Immortal Realm during his lifetime. Now, he was merely using the lingering power from his past to intimidate the one controlling the Heavenly Thunder."

"Your father also mentioned that the consciousness was already on the verge of dissipating and had no actual strength left. Even without this incident, it wouldn't have lasted much longer."

"If the Heavenly Thunder had truly struck down just now, there would have been no way to resist it."

"After hearing this, you understood everything."

"With this, all the events made sense."

"Your father was able to avoid the Heavenly Thunder during his breakthrough because he borrowed the lingering power of the inheritance master."

"And your father couldn't truly escape the Southern Regions because the inheritance master had no strength left and his consciousness was fading!"

"Your father himself didn't have time to break through to a higher realm while traversing the Desert of Death."

"In the following days, you, your father Jiang Fushan, and the Jiang Family settled down at Spine Mountain."

"In the sixteenth year, you displayed astonishing talent in the Formation Dao."

"You helped the cultivators of Spine Mountain set up several high-grade Gathering Spirit Arrays."

"You received their gratitude and were rewarded with hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones."

"In the seventeenth year, while cultivating the Immortal Dao, you triggered a random enlightenment, increasing your cultivation speed eightfold and making your mind more active."

"This enlightenment lasted for ten months, and your cultivation level in the Immortal Dao directly reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage!"

"Seeing that your Immortal Dao cultivation had reached its peak, you decided it was time to start cultivating Martial Dao."

"However, before that, you found your father Jiang Fushan and gave him all the remaining Spirit Stones you had, urging him to cultivate quickly."

"After doing this, you went straight to Old Li and told him you wanted to observe the formations left by Senior Lu Wuya."

"As you wished, you entered those formations."

"In the eighteenth year, you continuously observed the formations and found the place where the underground thunder originated."

"However, you did not immediately set up a formation to draw out the underground Heavenly Thunder."

"Because Old Li still occasionally visited in the past year."

"You felt that you couldn't persuade the people of Spine Mountain to resolve the underground Heavenly Thunder together, so it was better not to let them know what you were doing."

"Otherwise, if they drove you away, you would lose a valuable place for cultivating Martial Dao."

"In the nineteenth year, Old Li rarely came by anymore."

"In the twentieth year, you set up an inverted seventh-grade Thunder Conduction Formation."

"This breakthrough in Martial Dao also had an unexpected outcome."

"You discovered that your Nascent Soul was also integrating the Primordial Energy shield into itself."

"Apart from this, nothing else unusual happened."

"This breakthrough took you three months, and your Martial Dao advanced to the first level of the Unity Realm."

"After the breakthrough, you looked at your Nascent Soul and felt something was off."

"Is this still a Nascent Soul?"

"It had a Primordial Spirit and a Martial Dao protective energy shield—no, the shield had now been integrated into its body."

"No matter how you looked at it, your Nascent Soul seemed more like a miniature cultivator."

"Unable to figure it out, you decided to ignore it."

"After all, it was something you had cultivated, so it shouldn't be harmful."

"In fact, what you didn't know was that it wasn't just harmless; it was incredibly beneficial."

"This was the true power of the Divine Dao."

"The key to the Divine Dao lies in the Nascent Soul."

"It's well known that strong cultivators in the Immortal Dao have two fatal weaknesses: the Nascent Soul and the Primordial Spirit!"

"But because of your unique Nascent Soul, you essentially have only one weakness: the Nascent Soul."

"Even if your Primordial Spirit perishes, you still have another one within your Nascent Soul, allowing you to survive."

"And the Nascent Soul of the Divine Dao has a defense as strong as Martial Dao, making it difficult to kill."

"In other words, cultivators of the same level in the Immortal Dao or Martial Dao can't kill you!"

"Of course, you didn't know any of this; you just felt that your Nascent Soul was peculiar."

"After the breakthrough, you found Old Li."

"You told Old Li that there was a problem with the formation left by Senior Lu Wuya and hoped everyone could work together to resolve it."

"Old Li quickly gathered everyone for a meeting."

"In the end, your proposal was rejected."

"You gave a helpless smile, realizing it still wouldn't work."

"You didn't say anything more and continued your cultivation."
