Chapter 243: The Start of the Upheaval

The vast bridge of clouds extended off into the horizon, seemingly without end.

“Do you know what the differences are between the Spirit Race and the Human Race?”

The figure, with its back to Xu Disheng, walked slowly in mid-air beside the bridge of clouds. Clearly, the bridge was only meant for Xu Disheng to walk on.

Xu Disheng pondered for a moment and subconsciously tried to use profound qi to form a water mirror to see his current appearance.

However, his Jianggong acupoint was empty, devoid of any profound qi. Only a stream of pure, crystal clear Innate Spiritual Force swirled and flowed like water within. No matter how he tried to move it, there was no response.

Xu Disheng frowned slightly, speculating in his mind.

Perhaps it was due to the protection of the Mirror Bodhi that Xu Disheng’s reincarnation this time was entirely different from a reincarnation typically experienced by a true spirit.

The other true spirits, after their reincarnation, had their consciousnesses completely wiped clean. After passing through the vortex of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they would be reborn with a new consciousness.

However, his consciousness showed no signs of weakness or disintegration. It was attached tightly to his golden true spirit. He had not lost any of his memories, nor did he need to gradually awaken and recover his memories over time, like those almighty reincarnated beings.

What Xu Disheng didn’t know was that although the Mirror Bodhi was considered one of the pinnacle spiritual items in the Human Realm, it still couldn’t defy the laws of heaven and earth within the Six Paths of Reincarnation and had no way of protecting his consciousness.

Deep in his sea of consciousness, the golden true spirit had completely fused with Xu Disheng’s mind. A faint hint of violet qi emanated from it, exuding an ancient and unsympathetically noble aura.

It was the bestowed violet qi of the Immortal race.

The figure seemed to notice what Xu Disheng was doing and said, “Don’t waste your energy. You haven’t awakened your Spirit yet and can’t use your innate Spiritual Force. Reflect on the memories I just imparted to you, and you’ll understand the difference between the Spirit Race and other races.”

The Spirit Race was extremely scarce in number, but their innate talents and comprehension abilities were unparalleled, overshadowing the Human and Demon races, which were the most powerful in the Human Realm.

The most well-hidden aspect of the Spirit Race was their ability to connect with the Heavenly Court!

Not only the Spirit Race’s domain, the Profound Depth Spiritual World, but also many domains in the Eastern region of the Human Realm, such as the Mountain Protecting Spiritual World and the Jade Lake Spiritual World, could connect with the Heavenly Court.

The Heavenly Court governed the Human Realm, the Three Realms of the Yin Wheel, and the Nine Serenities Realm. Apart from overseeing the ordination of all gods in the Human Realm, there were also dozens of Rank 2 Divine Lords in the Heavenly Court with incomprehensible powers who had broken through the barriers of heaven and passed down their lineage to the Human Realm, forming these special domains and celestial lands.

Over the years, many Divine Sea stage beings had been born in these domains and celestial lands established by these various great powers. Once they were ordained by the House of the Earth God and sent to the Heavenly Court, they would directly belong to their respective House lineage, slowly increasing the power of the House.

Most of these types of celestial lands rarely had conflicts with the indigenous powers of the Human Realm. Even the strongest sects wouldn’t actively trouble these celestial lands, as the gains simply wouldn’t be worth the losses.

Heavenly Lord Yu Jing, the latest Divine Sea stage expert produced by the Shangqing Holy Sect, had made rapid progress in the Heavenly Court. He was now a Rank 2 Divine Lord, a venerable cultivator, and held power over a House, possessing a lofty status.

Previously, he had used his heaven-toppling magic power to send a silk brocade to Mirage Spirit Greater Lord as a probe. In the future, the Shangqing Sacred Sect might also develop into another of these celestial lands through more overboard support from Heavenly Lord Yu Jing.

The Shangqing Spiritual World in the Pure Spirit Ocean was indeed a blessed land. However, it still fell short when compared to a true celestial land like the Jade Lake Spiritual World. But with the passing of time, once Lord Yu Jing realized this was a tacitly established practice for great powers with Grandmaster level cultivations, he would surely go all out to transform the Shangqing Spiritual World into a genuine celestial land.

Profound Depth Spiritual World was a celestial land that had existed for countless years. It was established by Spirit Immersion Divine Lord of the Heavenly Court, who was the chief deity of the House of Profound Depth, one of the 72 Houses of the Heavenly Court. What set it apart from the other Houses was that most of its Divine Elders and Divine Generals belonged to the Spirit Race.

All things come to an end, and this seemingly endless bridge of clouds was no exception.

Xu Disheng passed through the curtain of mist at the end of the bridge and saw the boundlessly vast Profound Depth Spiritual World spread out before him. A glint of black Soul Force fluctuated in his eyes.

Thanks to the innate Immortal violet qi which even Xu Disheng was unaware of, his Soul Force was fully retained upon reincarnating. Although his newly born body had a cultivation base similar to the Cleansed Meridian stage of the human race, his Soul Force remained extremely strong. Due to his achievements in the Soul Song cultivation method, the true strength of his Soul Force had far surpassed the peak Dao Foundation stage and was even approaching the Divine Core stage in power.

Soul Song was developed by that Bodhisattva through a simplification of a supreme Buddhist technique from Sah? Heaven called the Passing Spirit Buddhist Incantation. It was meant for his reincarnation, but Xu Disheng ended up benefiting from it.

“This world is not fair. Since the Spirit Race was born, they have always been envied and admired by other races. Although the Spirit Race is almost identical to the Human Race, the only difference is their innate Spiritual Force and nearly perfect aptitude for cultivation.”

“Innate Spiritual Force is inherent in every Spirit Race being after their birth. It’s similar to the profound qi of the Human Race but is much purer and stronger. Using the same technique with Spiritual Force as opposed to profound qi results in a power difference of more than ten times.”

“After awakening under the statue of the Spirit Submersion Divine Lord, you can fully integrate with the innate Spiritual Force and activate your Spiritual Root.”

“While the Human Race has the upper, middle, and lower classes of the Spiritual Root Sequence, the Spirit Race only has three types of Spiritual Roots, which are Rank 1, Rank 2, and Rank 3. Those three Ranks are equivalent to the top 3 tiers of the upper class of the Human Race’s Spiritual Root Sequence.”

“Even the beings of the Spirit Race with the worst aptitude, the Rank 3 Spiritual Root, can easily achieve the Primordial Spirit stage. If they have excellent powers of comprehension, they can even reach the Clone Avatar stage.”

“The only pity is that in this endlessly vast Profound Depth Spiritual World, there are only a little over a hundred Spirit Race beings.”

As the figure reached the end of its explanation, the figure’s tone seemed to contain a hint of frustration and sorrow.

Xu Disheng looked at the thousands of different beings busily working below the vast screen covering the sky and began, “These are…”

“Slaves building palaces and domains,” the figure replied indifferently. “Most beings of the Spirit Race love magnificent palaces. There are some Primordial Lords who are always dissatisfied with their domains and constantly have them knocked down and rebuilt. Hence, these slaves exist.”

After speaking to that point, he turned his gaze to Xu Disheng. “Having just been born and already having awakened some memories, your Spiritual Root talent shouldn’t be merely Rank 3.”

The Spirit Race was truly blessed by heaven, enjoying exceptional benefits. There were quite a few of them who were the reincarnation of some supreme powerhouse, and it was quite common for the members of the Spirit Race to awaken the memories of their true spirit much earlier than other races.

However, the fact that Xu Disheng had shown signs of awakening his memories so shortly after birth made the figure look at him with a mix of admiration and hope.

This figure didn’t even dare to think that Xu Disheng’s memories had never disappeared in the first place. Even when great powers from the Heavenly Court were reincarnated, the memories of their true spirit needed to be gradually awakened. There was no such thing as instantaneous recollection. These were the rules of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, which no one could change.

The Immortals of ages past were above such rules, but the Immortal Court had long been overthrown. This trace of the Immortal Race’s innate purple qi could not be bound by the laws of heaven and earth which were reinstated by the Heavenly Court and Sah? Heaven.
