Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 661: Chapter 6 Lifeless True Saint (Seeking Monthly Votes in July!)_2

He used this title mainly because the Lifeless Mother, as a folk-established deity, already had a high enough distinction.

Lifeless signifies neither birth nor death, the origin unknowable, indestructible, and is itself a concept, well-suited for the emergence of a god.

He eventually modified the title a bit and directly utilized it.

Now was the time to verify its effectiveness.

He was also testing to see if someone worshiping the Lifeless True Saint, with the source of their faith being him, would present themselves.

This first believer was crucial.

“Is this the target, what’s so special about it?”

Small Faith Worlds generally look for those with deep resentments, as these people are easiest to deceive and have the highest chance of success.

“Seems to be a beggar?” Observing Xia Yang’s panic, Wang Sheng became curious—what was so special about this little beggar?

With a thought, the Small Faith World sent back some information.

In a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, a being known as Xia Yang of the Fourth Realm was killed, and even his Spiritual Body was annihilated.

His bones were crushed and scattered to the wind, and his soul was made to dissipate.

What a great vengeance this was!

Originally, given the targeting against Xia Yang, he should not have survived.

However, several days later, Xia Yang’s Spiritual Body seemed to be reconstituted by some force; the Small Faith World happened to witness this and thus followed suit.

Ultimately, he discovered that this reconstituted Spiritual Body appeared to be drawn by some power into the little beggar’s body, where it came back to life.

“Body Seizing? No, the little beggar had already died—this is more like a Reincarnation, but this Xia Yang is clearly not very clear about his own situation.”

Reincarnation, in the Cultivation World, is not an uncommon matter, but to achieve it is not so simple.

Even if successful, numerous problems could arise.

Such as a mismatch between the Spiritual Body and the physical body, making it difficult to use the body perfectly, or failure to merge at all, resulting in the body continuing to decompose, and the Spiritual Body being affected—all in all, even if barely successful, there would always be flaws that were difficult to remedy.

Yet according to the Small Faith World’s investigation, Xia Yang’s Spiritual Body and the little beggar’s body melded harmoniously, as if they were originally one, something that a being of the Fourth Realm should not be capable of doing.

Wang Sheng became interested and continued to control the Small Faith World to probe further.

Soon, he found a clue.

“Truly anything can happen… Xia Yang’s Spiritual Body is not complete; if I’m not mistaken, the part that’s missing has fused with the little beggar’s Spiritual Body, to put it bluntly, this body even has a part that belongs to Xia Yang.”

He continued to investigate and found this to be indeed the case.

The Small Faith World also sent back Xia Yang’s memories.

“So it turns out he should’ve saved the little beggar, and the beggar himself did not resist, no wonder. As for the Spiritual Body regrouping, it must be the work of a practitioner from the Fierce Sun Sect in the Seventh Realm!”

There were countless direct descendants in the Seventh Realm of the Fierce Sun Sect, so why would someone come out of nowhere to seek an offspring of just the Fourth Realm, with not very strong potential?

Perhaps he had anticipated a calamity for the Fierce Sun Sect and left a contingency.

In the end, he had succeeded. Though he had changed bodies, lineage was not something passed down only through blood.

Besides, given the tragedy that befell the Fierce Sun Sect, bloodline continuation was virtually impossible.

“How interesting. As the largest force on Heavenly Saint Star, failing to unite all strengths against an external enemy is one thing, but to strike at other top powers…”

This was what Wang Sheng found most interesting about Xia Yang’s memories; he could confirm that the Three Saints of Heavenly Saint Star were definitely brewing something, and it was even highly likely targeted against him.

“Pity that I’ve come to know of it, which means assuredly your success is impossible.”

No matter the conspiracy, as long as it is resolved before success, it signifies nothing!

It had to be said, he was very satisfied with the individual chosen by the Small Faith World.

At this time, with the voice gone, Xia Yang grew even more panicked, even thinking he had gone mad from his desire for revenge, hallucinating.

Wang Sheng chuckled lightly and sent over some information.

The content of the information was simple, naturally the fabricated tale of the Lifeless True Saint.

Not only that, but he also transferred some power to him.

“The creator, who neither lives nor dies… to save those in suffering, let the Divine Country True Void Homeland fall to the world, with even the True Saint himself descending to the world to atone?”

For some reason, Xia Yang seemed to see a compassionate figure.

This figure appeared too vast for All Heavens and Worlds to bear, His eyes piercing through them, lamenting the suffering, seemingly crying out unjustly on behalf of all people.

The scene changed, and he saw a Divine Country so vast it was boundless; the figure seemed angered by the people forgetting their origins, and with a burst of rage, shattered the Divine Country. The citizens fell and became reincarnated, and shortly thereafter, the Divine Country collapsed into countless fragments, fulfilling their original duty.

After the fall of the Divine Country, the mysterious figure vanished…

All the visions shook his soul; he could hardly fathom the power of such a being.

With a casual wave of His hand, planets fell and worlds were destroyed, yet He harbored a merciful heart.

And that Divine Country, perhaps also known as the True Void Homeland!

“The Lifeless True Saint, True Void Homeland!”

“Do such powerful beings truly exist?”

Xia Yang’s heart was filled with confusion. He could be certain that if the Lifeless True Saint existed, they could easily resolve the issue of the Heavenly Saint Star’s Three Saints; even if those three possessed peerless cultivation, they would definitely be no match for the Lifeless True Saint.

But what if this was all made up?

And just then, a force suddenly emerged within his body, which almost instantly repaired his body completely.

“Can I cultivate now?”

He had always been frustrated by the issues with his body, unsure of how long it would take to heal on his own.

At the same time, a piece of information was transmitted.

“The Lifeless True Saint has already awakened, hence the descent of power…”

In an instant, Xia Yang realized that he had fallen to rock bottom; what was there to fear anymore?

The Lifeless True Saint was his hope.

It was at that very moment of change in thought that the thread of faith was born, and the Incense Fire Faith belonging to Xia Yang entered the small Faith World.

Wang Sheng had also completed all of his tests.

Even across worlds, he could utilize faith to bestow his power.

“It wasn’t a waste to deliberately broadcast the image…”

Xia Yang was meant to see the fall of the Divine Country, and it wasn’t without reason.

Certainly, he had a hand in it.

The effects, it turned out, were indeed very good.

Using the little power left in the small Faith World to heal Xia Yang’s body was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

All things combined, they created a loyal believer.

And the source of the Lifeless True Saint’s faith was him!

No mysterious sources appeared out of nowhere.

Undoubtedly, this was a good thing, and it reaffirmed some matters to him.

“In that case, it’s manageable!”

Without hesitation, Wang Sheng followed the thread of faith and projected strength through time and space onto Xia Yang.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Xia Yang’s strength was elevated from that of a mere mortal to the peak of the First Realm.

This was much stronger than many believers from the Source Star, who were previously at the Fourth Realm.

Xia Yang was digesting the information from the Lifeless True Saint. As a believer, he was contemplating how to rise and spread the glory of the True Saint while seeking revenge.

His body had been healed and he could continue to cultivate.

But his confidence wasn’t very strong, considering the mediocre talent of a small beggar.

However, with his cultivation elevated to the First Realm and the acquisition of new information, he realized his concerns were unfounded.

“Indeed, the methods of a True Saint, how could they be so simple.”

Even across time and space he could be elevated to the peak of the First Realm, but most crucially, it was just the beginning.

The higher his own cultivation, the more power he could contain.

At a certain level, he could even invite the True Saint to descend!

This was only one of the methods; if he propagated the faith of the Lifeless True Saint, it could also be achieved, and this method was even simpler.

But before he could indulge in pride, a cold splash of water, or rather a warning, was cast upon him.

“The reason for the fall of the Divine Country should not be repeated; take heed, the Lifeless True Saint is the deliverer from suffering and difficulty!”

Xia Yang’s expression instantly became solemn.

“I will heed the True Saint’s teachings!”

After a sincere bow, he stood up.

He had a mission to complete, to beckon for the early arrival of the True Saint!

The suffering of the Heavenly Saint Star would be dissolved by the True Saint!
