Qiao Nian’s Spiritual Cultivation Secret Book was titled "Heavenly Father Sacrificial Scripture."
Of course, that was the original na.
The current version of this cultivation secret book not only lacked the latter part of the content but also the cover was missing.
The day Wang Sheng gave the items to Qiao Nian, he destroyed the cover as well.
The reason was quite simple.
After regaining his senses, Qiao Nian felt only hatred towards "Heavenly Father," let alone worship.
His path was mostly ford under the influence of the Heavenly Father, hence it was nad "Heavenly Father Sacrificial Scripture."
Obviously, this was sothing Qiao Nian couldn’t accept after regaining his senses.
So, in the end, he tore the title off the book.
Wang Sheng knew this na only because he had caught a glimpse of it back then and rembered it.
However, he planned to rena it.
This was also Qiao Nian’s wish.
"...let’s call it ’Heavenly Thought Scripture!’"
After so thought, Wang Sheng ca up with a na that seed appropriate.
Heaven refers to the Heavenly Sect, which was established a long ti ago and was not an evil sect initially, and now that it was destined to perish, it deserved to be commorated.
Nian, which stood for Qiao Nian, the creator of this scripture, and also represented spiritual power, was extrely suitable.
Thus, the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" was born.
Wang Sheng recalled Qiao Nian’s last request.
To pass down this scripture.
Although he had gone down the wrong path later, the early content of the scripture was a distillation of his efforts, a new path different from that of Qi-Blood Martial Arts. If it were simply buried, Qiao Nian would clearly be unwilling.
"Don’t worry, I will pass it on for you, but not now."
He wasn’t sure if cultivating the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" would still be influenced by the "Heavenly Father" in the later stages, so he needed to eliminate this hidden danger before he could truly pass it down.
This principle was the sa as the transmission of the "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter"; potential dangers had to be confird.
However, this ti Wang Sheng did not plan to cultivate the "Heavenly Thought Scripture."
He planned to integrate the content of the Heavenly Thought Scripture into the "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter," taking the strengths of each to perfect this powerful scripture.
Then he could refine the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" anew to avoid repeating the sa mistakes.
Thus, Wang Sheng started to study the content of the "Heavenly Thought Scripture."
In fact, he had discussed a lot of the content with Qiao Nian in their cultivation discussions.
But having the complete scripture allowed him to understand the discussions much more thoroughly.
"Divine, pertaining to spiritual power, responding to the celestial..."
This was the core content of the scripture and a necessary process in cultivation.
Wang Sheng found that it was completely different from the path of the White Lotus Demon King’s scriptures, but there were many parts that could corroborate each other.
After reading it, Wang Sheng felt more confident in the na he chose and also had an inkling as to why Qiao Nian might have been targeted by the so-called Heavenly Father.
Qiao Nian’s cultivation thod required sensing external objects and anchoring his spirit to these objects.
This thod of cultivation, Wang Sheng realized at a glance, was extrely dangerous.
Who could know what your senses would detect?
However, if the cultivation was successful, the product of this cultivation thod would be imnsely powerful.
The entire process of cultivation starts with sensing the external world, connecting to the vague objects therein, and then using these objects to temper one’s own spirit. Generally speaking, the stronger one’s inherent talent, the stronger the objects they detect.
According to Qiao Nian himself, if one’s talent was strong enough, perhaps they could even sense the proud sun in the sky, and the speed of tempering the spirit would be terrifyingly fast.
Moving to the second stage of spiritual tempering, one must enter the state of "exterior objectlessness," envisioning the sensed object within the heart, using this object as an anchor point to utilize Spiritual Divine Power.
Reaching this stage was about equivalent to becoming a Grandmaster.
If one could fully visualize it, they’d reach the realm of Great Grandmaster, and the Divine Skills used then would be even more abundant.
As the Sect Hierarch of the Heavenly Sect, Qiao Nian initially visualized the possibly non-existent "Heavenly Father."
And then, problems arose.
The "Heavenly Father" truly existed and was directly influencing his cultivation path.
It turned a visualization technique into a harvesting technique.
Seeing this, Wang Sheng roughly understood why Qiao Nian spoke of the Heavenly Father harvesting.
"Under the influence of the ’Heavenly Father,’ Qiao Nian, who should have continued down the path of visualization, turned it into harvesting because the Heavenly Father itself was also harvesting, thus Qiao Nian subconsciously treaded that direction."
"This ant he abandoned his original, infinitely potent right path for a crooked one, harvesting others while the ’Heavenly Father’ watched over him every mont, and perhaps even if I hadn’t co, Qiao Nian might have been harvested as well."
"Qiao Nian’s final use of the spiritual visualization thod was the best proof that the Heavenly Father’s arrival was intentional," Wang Sheng realized after seeing the cultivation thod. "The visualized spirit form that was said to be imagined by Qiao Nian might actually have been deliberately crafted by the ’Heavenly Father’ himself."
The potential of the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" was undoubtedly imnse, even greater than that of the "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter."
This thod of visualization could potentially lead to the creation of a divine spirit through spiritual cultivation, much like Wang Sheng’s "Five Internal Organs Containing God," incredibly powerful.
Unfortunately, the "Heavenly Father" took advantage of the situation, leaving this thod incomplete.
Wang Sheng easily guessed the contents torn by Qiao Nian.
It was likely the thods to harvest and visualize the "Heavenly Father" that went astray.
And the content that remained could only bring one to the level of a Grandmaster.
Fully visualizing objects in the spirit to reach the level of a Great Grandmaster didn’t actually exist, or perhaps it did originally as the thod of visualizing the Heavenly Father.
But that was more like the "Heavenly Father" himself residing within, not deeply related to visualization.
So, the path of the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" wasn’t as extensive as that of the White Lotus Demon’s path, it could only reach Grandmaster level.
But in terms of detail, the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" was still more ticulous.
"Objects of visualization, mostly natural, but man-made objects also, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, weapons, all can be visualized..."
Wang Sheng muttered to himself as he studied.
As he read deeper, he realized that integrating these contents into the "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter" was challenging.
Perhaps, it would require mastery of both scriptures.
Of course, if one of the scriptures was taken to the level of breakthrough, a new understanding of the scripture might also be possible.
"Let’s look again, and then first try to take the ’Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter’ to the point of breakthrough!"
The "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter" had already reached level eight, and now, with the cultivation thod obtained from Qiao Nian, the progress was accelerated by mutual verification.
Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before he could achieve a breakthrough with it.
He was still interested in the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" because so of its contents were too valuable for Wang Sheng to discard.
That was its spiritual secret techniques, which were his weakness.
Both scriptures had their unique spiritual secret techniques. The "Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter" was more oriented toward illusions and deceits, serving as support.
Whereas the secret techniques in the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" resembled more of magical Taoist arts.
For example, the first secret technique Qiao Nian used in the battle with Wang Sheng could directly summon Heavenly Thunder, controlling lightning to attack the enemy, proving to be a mighty Thunder Skill.
This particular Thunder Skill was in the remaining content, one of the very few techniques preserved.
However, these spiritual secret techniques were all actually in their nascent stages, only containing rudintary content, followed by so annotations by Qiao Nian.
"Heavenly Thunder, visualize the Heavenly Father, using His power to bridge heaven and earth, attracting endless thunder and lightning. Unfortunately, it seems that due to the incomplete visualization of the Heavenly Father, it’s difficult to attract lightning."
"How hateful, if the spiritual power were a bit stronger, perhaps it could achieve this. Being at the Grandmaster level of a Qi-Blood Martial Artist, it’s increasingly difficult to progress. Who knows if I’ll reach this level in my lifeti?"
...
Most of the content discussed the implentation issues of these spiritual secret techniques and improvents.
Unfortunately, Qiao Nian didn’t find a better thod before being misled, allowing the "Heavenly Father" to reside in his spirit.
Even though he could utilize it subsequently, it was due to the influence of the Heavenly Father, not a perfected technique.
This point was also included in the subtle contents of Qiao Nian’s annotations, very scantily detailed, and Wang Sheng wouldn’t have noticed it if he hadn’t read very carefully.
It seed to be from the last mont of clarity, but by then, it was already too late.
Thus, not only the cultivation thod was incomplete, but these spiritual secret techniques were also incomplete, only half-finished "Taoist techniques," which Wang Sheng was temporarily unable to utilize.
However—
"Perhaps it could be achievable with strong enough spiritual power?"
Wang Sheng felt his spiritual power was quite impressive, definitely stronger than Qiao Nian’s. His most substantial difference with Qiao Nian in terms of divine thoughts was that he didn’t have as many flashy spiritual secret techniques and could only rely on Qi-Blood.
Now that he had acquired sothing akin to "Taoist techniques," he naturally wanted to learn them.
Not to ntion, the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" also featured techniques like summoning wind and rain, although from the content, it’s just a basic rain summoning technique, but for Wang Sheng, it was quite good.
Cultivating Inner Core Skill, yet all combat techniques were close-range fighting, hardly befitting a path of a celestial being.
He had researched it himself before, but unfortunately, due to a lack of strong foundation, he hadn’t achieved much.
This was also one of the reasons why he was fervently collecting books.
With insufficient accumulation, many things were restricted and couldn’t be created.
This ti, the "Heavenly Thought Scripture" provided him with significant inspiration. Perhaps with a thorough study, he could also use his vast divine thoughts to summon thunders and control the weather.
Of course, even with a reference, it wouldn’t be easy to achieve, but having a direction was the greatest gain.
"The trip to Quanzhou, although full of unexpected incidents, the gains did not disappoint at all!"
This ti, what was supposed to be rely a lesson for a rather peculiar sect, turned out to be full of incidents, but fortunately, the gains were good, better than expected.
Wang Sheng continued studying the scripture, losing track of ti. During this process, Yunze City began to recover, and those who had been unconscious slowly woke up...
(There’s one more chapter. So sleepy as I’ve been typing fast, unable to update the four chapters)
