Chapter 11: The Fission Qi-Guiding thod
【#％~#？？】
A garbled ss of words ca from the System.
For a mont, it didn’t even know how to express itself, and it once again hid away, deeply curious about what new absurdity Li Tianwei was about to pull off this ti.
“It must be like this. With my special Spiritual Root, it’s definitely different from other Heavenly Roots.”
“It’s just like when I studied — I only needed to read once to rember everything. In math, I saw the question and instantly knew the answer. The process didn’t matter.”
“I can’t be viewed the sa way as ordinary people, nor as normal cultivators. That’s what makes
special.”
At this mont, Li Tianwei felt a flash of enlightennt — a sense of “I’ve understood.”
Imdiately, he began flipping through the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod in his hands.
It was obvious that the techniques about drawing Qi into the body were useless to him.
“Who told
to be special, anyway!”
Li Tianwei nearly flipped his hair as he spoke with narcissistic confidence.
“Since I’m special, I have to treat myself in a special way.”
He stared at the Qi-Guiding section of the thod and fell into deep thought.
Closing his eyes, he began to sense once again.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he researched or tried to comprehend it, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth simply refused to acknowledge him.
It would not approach him, nor would it enter his body.
Even when he desperately tried to guide it, it seed disgusted.
“No way… I don’t understand this at all. Am I not a genius?”
“It definitely isn’t my problem. It’s the thod’s fault — or the world’s.”
anwhile, at the foot of Heaven’s Gate Peak, Bai Muxu was staring at the summit, his eyes filled with anticipation.
“It took
a full hour to draw Qi into my body and step into the Qi Refinent Realm. Li Tianwei climbed the Heart-Questioning Steps to the top. His aptitude, willpower, and comprehension are all a level above mine. He should be faster.”
So Bai Muxu thought.
But as ti passed, minute by minute…
Half an hour later, there was still not the slightest movent atop the peak.
In fact, there wasn’t even the faintest fluctuation of spiritual energy.
It didn’t look like anyone was cultivating at all.
“That’s impossible! With a Heavenly Root’s talent, drawing Qi into the body should at least stir so spiritual fluctuations even if it hasn’t entered yet.”
“How could it be so quiet?”
Bai Muxu frowned in confusion and frustration, almost wanting to rush up the peak to check.
But before he could take a step, he stopped himself.
“The master only leads the way — cultivation depends on oneself.”
“The Hundred-Day Foundation is the basis. It’s also a test of one’s control over spiritual energy. I’ve already taught him how to draw Qi and provided him with resources.”
“This is the simplest step. If he can’t even complete this, what use is there in my interference?”
Holding himself back, Bai Muxu suppressed his doubts.
While Bai Muxu worried below, Li Tianwei at the summit was even more anxious.
He frantically flipped through the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod.
Inside, there were over a dozen ways to guide Qi into the body, countless Qi Refinent techniques, and even Foundation Establishnt thods for later stages.
Bai Muxu had already explained all these to him, and Li Tianwei had understood them.
But that was theory.
In practice, things didn’t match his “answers” at all — he couldn’t even draw in a trace of Qi.
As for whether the problem lay in himself, Li Tianwei naturally refused to believe it.
After all, he had a Heavenly Root.
The only possible issue was that the thod was incompatible with him.
Thus, Li Tianwei decided to rely on his own ability to completely modify this Qi-Guiding thod and create one suited to himself.
Looking at the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod, he resolved to research and devise a new thod of his own.
As for knowledge — though this world’s cultivation theories were limited, he still had knowledge from his previous world.
“Spiritual energy? What if I compare it to atoms in the air?”
“Even so, it still doesn’t respond to my call… could it be that my Spiritual Root is too special?”
Li Tianwei muttered to himself, beginning to analyze the Qi-Guiding thods recorded in the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod.
He began blending the knowledge from his forr world with the Qi-Guiding principles of this one.
“Could human consciousness be a kind of magnetic field — a biological magnetism? In my previous world, there was no such thing as sensing heaven and earth’s spiritual energy.”
“It must be the difference in human constitution… or perhaps the peculiarity of my root?”
“I don’t necessarily need to attract spiritual energy. I can let the energies attract and repel each other instead…”
“Maybe my root can’t draw them in directly, but once they enter my body, things will change.”
“According to the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod, the five elents — gold, wood, water, fire, earth — form positive and negative interactions…”
As he murmured, his consciousness spread outward.
At this mont, the sole advantage of his False Spiritual Root revealed itself.
The reason it was called “False” was that it was too mixed — containing every type of elental attribute, constantly repelling and attracting one another.
It could sense every kind of Qi.
Yet precisely because it was too mixed, it had no strong attraction to any of them.
Worse, since it possessed so many attributes, advancing in cultivation required balancing all of them simultaneously — reaching the sa threshold before one could break through.
But with so many attributes, and no affinity to any, absorbing spiritual energy from heaven and earth was extrely difficult.
Thus, a False Spiritual Root ascending to immortality was nearly impossible.
This wasn’t so novel fantasy where False Roots turned out to surpass Heavenly Roots later on.
Reality was cruel — the imbalance of mixed elents only worsened with higher cultivation.
To grow evenly, one needed massive resources, which would then be consud or neutralized through the constant cycle of mutual generation and destruction.
Water might empower fire, or wood might weaken it.
Other roots — single or dual — might have fewer attributes, but they could specialize and possess greater affinity for spiritual energy.
The False Spiritual Root’s only advantage was its sensitivity to many types of Qi.
And now, that very advantage gave Li Tianwei a unique feeling.
Though the spiritual energy of heaven and earth refused to enter him, he could clearly sense its presence.
Since it existed, there had to be an answer.
If he could perceive it, then it was a substance.
Therefore, in his understanding, he didn’t need to attract it — he could set it in motion.
With his extraordinary way of thinking, Li Tianwei decided to make the elents collide and stir each other.
“Guiding Qi” — as the na implied — was about setting it in motion.
Whether it entered his body or not would no longer be up to it.
Thus, under Li Tianwei’s manipulation, the various elental energies in heaven and earth began to collide violently.
The minute collisions between them rippled outward, forming a bizarre chain reaction.
To ensure control, Li Tianwei treated these energies as atoms.
And in his forr world, the most powerful use of atoms was—
“Nuclear fission…”
Yes — Li Tianwei fused his understanding of nuclear energy and the fission formula with the Heaven-Origin Dao Foundation thod.
By using the thod of fission to guide Qi, he intended to blast those disobedient energies straight into his body.
