Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 494 - 248 The Best Partner [Seeking Support]

Wang Qi had actually lost control of his own strength. It was only when Hu Buxue's Sword Qi entered his body that he realized how terrifying the Washing Dust Demon Sword was.

Washing away all worldly connections, only killing remains.

Faced with this power of death, the Life Flame was infuriated. This Divine Skill didn't have the issue of "mana involving the Primordial Spirit," because it was "life" and "spirituality" itself.

However, unlike the Life Flame cultivated step by step by Ai Qinglan and Chen Feng, the Life Flame Wang Qi was now using was not from his own "life," but rather from an external Magic Foundation, that from the Memory Body.

After dismantling the Ghost King previously used in Spirit Awakening Village, he injected the Holy Light Holy Flame and Emperor's Liquid into the contaminated Magic Foundation. While compelling the Magic Foundation to evolve on its own, he read and guided the Spirit Sense within the Ghost King Memory, causing it to iterate and optimize hundreds of times.

Eventually, something unexpected was born. The Life Flame.

Something that Wang Qi had never mastered himself.

But for one person to control the Life Flame was still too strenuous. Wang Qi had estimated that the completely renewed external Magic Foundation had surpassed his own strength and even his "Essence of Life" was stronger than his. Although this Memory Body didn't possess true Spirit Wisdom, once Wang Qi connected with it, it was as if he became its host, drawing strength from it, and correspondingly, was also controlled by it.

When the Life Flame was enraged, Wang Qi lost control.

Or rather, no one could truly control life, which was even harder than controlling consciousness.

Apart from the Life Flame, this Memory Body was also equipped with powers and Divine Skills based on biological instincts. These skills were common goodies for the Demon Clan, nothing more than simple Divine Skills that enhance the body, sharpen claws and teeth, strengthen defenses, make the body light as a feather, and so on.

After all, it had only replicated the powers of a group of Spirit Awakening Little Demons and even then, only a small part from each, the fact it could produce Divine Skills was remarkable.

But Wang Qi still felt he wouldn't lose.

The scene where Ai Qinglan disregarded the Silent Annihilation Sky Burning Palm, and simply slammed a fellow Cultivator to death was too shocking. With the genuine Life Flame, he had an unlimited health bar and unlimited energy; there was no possibility of defeat.

Right when he was about to completely let go of his control and fight with instinctual strength, a mysteriously desolate feeling gently coiled around his heart.

How bizarre. I, Wang Qi, am not so invincibly lonely that I'm a peerless expert desiring defeat...

A flicker of doubt crossed Wang Qi's mind, followed by a barrage of images. In the blink of an eye, his consciousness regained control over his body.

What caught his eye was a long sword approaching ever closer. Wang Qi was startled, his thoughts as quick as lightning, he instinctively ducked his body to dodge the strike, then repositioned himself to the side to regroup.

"So that's your reason for insisting on using this piece of garbage to fight?" the girl's faint sigh arose in the depths of Wang Qi's heart. How could Wang Qi not understand what had happened?

"Junior Sister, you're actually willing to help me?"

This was his original plan. If one person was insufficient to control this special external Magic Foundation, then two would do. Chen Feng himself understood the Life Flame and naturally had experience in controlling it. His Magic Foundation was similar in principle to Chen Youjia's, naturally creating a combined effect greater than the sum of their parts.

"You fool," Chen Youjia scolded. "Wasn't the original purpose of developing this external Magic Foundation to aid in Cultivation? It doesn't increase your combat power one bit, and instead, you have to use a portion of your concentration to harmonize the external Magic Foundation with your own, essentially shackling your own battle power! Especially this 'Tusk'—utterly absurd! Is your current combat power even one-third as strong as if you were fighting with your actual abilities? Remove it and fight properly!"

As she spoke, Chen Youjia had already taken control of Wang Qi's hands, reaching toward his waistband. In an instant, Wang Qi regained control.

Their communication being through thoughts, without the need for words, was exceptionally fast. It was only now that Hu Buxue realized Wang Qi had changed. She pivoted elegantly, releasing countless Sword Qis. With Chen Youjia's assistance, Wang Qi wielded an unimaginable Spiritual Power to thrust his fist in defense. The White Flame rampaged, life blazed fiercely, and the roaring air halted Hu Buxue's Sword Qi.

Wang Qi stepped back, smiled, and said, "This time, I have never thought of using my own power—I definitely won't."

"As for me, this is a righteous game that must be completed in the right way."

"This Memory Body, it's the power those little demons could possess after becoming Great Demons... It's the most suitable method and also the most interesting."

To that, Chen Youjia's verdict was, "Truly foolish."

Hu Buxue also heard Wang Qi's words. She pressed in on Wang Qi and swung her Sword Qi again. Wang Qi didn't even bother to defend, and the forces of life and death naturally clashed and extinguished each other. Wang Qi was only pushed slightly backward by the force of the impact. As Hu Buxue raised her sword once more, Wang Qi stretched out his hand and grabbed it. The blade sank an inch into the flesh before it was caught by the constantly writhing, rapidly recovering muscles. In the stalemate, Hu Buxue addressed Wang Qi, "Is it for the sake of that village full of Demon Creatures that Mr. Wang is so persistently after me? What's the need for this?"

As her mana strengthened, black sinister patterns gradually surfaced on her face. Coupled with the swelling and bloodstains from Wang Qi's previous punch, she looked ferocious. Yet, her tone remained gentle, "Mr. Wang, you are undoubtedly a good person, but have you ever thought about the evil and filth in people's hearts?"

"Some people are idle, having wives and children at home, yet they don't care for household chores or engage in business and trade, leaving their families in misery; some bully the weak, doing nothing themselves while plundering the wealth of others to sustain themselves; some indulge in meaningless violence, taking pleasure in oppressing others; some indulge in lust, spoiling others' innocence..."

"And the hatred for the Demon Clan is revealed by the Great Dao. I'm afraid that even within the Immortal Alliance, not everyone is willing to accept the Demon Clan."

At this point, Hu Buxue's voice grew louder: "So what's the harm in me killing them?"

Sword Qi fluttered and pierced through Wang Qi's palm. To prevent his palm from being sliced off, he had no choice but to let go. The Life Flame circled his hand, and the wound immediately disappeared. Wang Qi frowned and said, "What's the need?"

"People always have their particular hobbies," Hu Buxue said with a bright and charming smile on her face. "I was born with a love for killing, it's just my nature, and there's no sin in that. Besides, those I slay are the wicked, the scum."

"From another angle, I'm the one willing to dirty my hands..."

"Then why bother asking me 'what's the need'?" Wang Qi replied indifferently, "My hobby is to uphold justice and weed out the bad guys."

"The only difference between you and me is that my standard for judging whether a guy is bad or deserves death is the law. So, I don't feel any 'dirtying of hands.' On the contrary, what I satisfy is my sense of Dao Morality."

With those words, Wang Qi squared himself for a charge, thinking to himself, "Junior Sister, go all out and help me."

"So stupid, and this belt is really uncomfortable!"

Wang Qi sighed: "I'm grateful that you're willing to help this much. Just watch, and see how I defeat this guy."

"Are you stupid?" Chen Youjia said anxiously, "The opponent's strength is unparalleled among those with the Ancient Golden Core..."

"Haha, just watch closely, I've said from the start that this is a game, and it's only a game if there's a challenge!"

Show-time! And next is my stage!

Chen Youjia felt Wang Qi's bizarre intent and her nose wrinkled in an irritation. But for some reason, tears almost spilled out.

"One year's worth of treats."

"Eh?"

"Treat me to a year's worth of treats, and I'll indulge in this foolishness with you just this once."

"No problem, I can even do ten years!"

"You said it, no regrets." Chen Youjia opened her eyes and focused her attention on what was before her.

There were many external Magic Foundations on Wang Qi's table, all of which he designed for the Deduction of his Magic Foundation. Only a small part was for his own amusement.

Among them, there was one that was suitable for the current situation.

Chen Youjia followed the energy and picked up the Law that took a different path from the Life Flame.

There was no sound because Wang Qi had not given it a spoof name. However, the Law contained within it was very clear.

Heavenly Entropy Technique, Silent Annihilation Sky Burning Palm.

"Junior Sister, wait, that..."

"You owe me ten years..." Chen Youjia inserted the external Magic Foundation into her belt and then slumped softly to the ground. (To be continued.
