Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 433 - 16 Vicious Circle
Chapter 433 -16 Vicious Circle
“Zhong” had lost the breath of life, which was a choice he had made himself.
Wang Sheng’s heart grew even more complex, as Zhong might have seen hope in him, but more so wanted to protect the Spirit Clan.
The first sentence of the message was related to the Spirit Clan, even proactively mentioning the benefits of preserving the Spirit Clan, clearly in fear of his wrath.
“In fact, even if it weren’t so, I would never harm the Spirit Clan.”
The scales given to him by the Spirit Clan Elders had been of great help, aiding his progress in entering the Spirit World and in crafting talismans, providing him with considerable inspiration.
Zhong must have known this, yet he still made his choice.
“It seems you don’t interfere with the Spirit Clan, but is this the path you yearned for?”
What Zhong left in the hands of the Spirit Clan was a hope from six thousand years ago, and an aspiration from one thousand eight hundred years prior.
The hope that someone could truly succeed.
Grasping this, Wang Sheng smiled, “Am I being schemed against? Or perhaps anyone who receives the Spirit Clan Elders’ gift and succeeds is ‘schemed’ against, Zhong had prepared two paths from the start.”
Of course, this kind of “scheming” wasn’t detestable, it was genuine assistance.
“Zhong, the name is truly fitting!”
Though he did not participate directly, there was indeed a connection.
Glancing at Zhong’s corpse, Wang Sheng buried it between the green hills and clear waters, as if returning it to nature.
A long while after the burial, Wang Sheng collected himself. With Zhong and Jiang Yun both dead, there were still many issues to consider.
“After Zhong’s death, will the imperial system collapse on its own?”
The Demon Clan, according to what Zhong had said, should be dealt with gradually. The most critical issue remained that of the imperial system.
Zhong left nothing behind, and his last words were only a plea, expressing his unwillingness.
But what would his death trigger? There was no explanation, or perhaps even Zhong himself was unclear.
“In that case, let’s enter the Spirit World of the First Dynasty and see.”
With his current strength, he could easily sense the presence of the Spirit World. The Spirit World that once belonged to the Great Zhou had perished, but exploring the First Dynasty’s Spirit World might reveal something different.
However, as Wang Sheng was about to enter the Spirit World, he felt something stirring within it, even visible to some extent in the real world.
Wang Sheng had only seen such a scene when the Great Zhou’s Spirit World was about to be destroyed.
“Is the First Dynasty’s Spirit World about to be destroyed?”
Wang Sheng felt this might not be the case.
After the death of the Qi Fortune Great Grandmaster of the original Great Zhou, there was no disturbance in the Spirit World.
Without hesitation, he secured his flesh, then used his Spiritual Body to enter the original Spirit World of the First Dynasty.

Having successfully reflected his Spiritual Body, even if the Spirit World was to be destroyed, Wang Sheng had a way to leave.
Logically, if it were the First Dynasty’s Spirit World, after being seized by Zhong, it should have been enveloped in black fog, but now it had turned a bloody red.
And within this blood-red expanse, a Black Fog Giant Snake was writhing madly.
“Because of Zhong’s death, has the Black Fog Giant Snake gone mad too?”
Wang Sheng did not hesitate and immediately took action.
Hao Hua appeared, transforming into the White Tiger True Body, and in almost an instant, the frenzied Black Fog Giant Snake was suppressed. The aura of the Black Fog Giant Snake was very strong, clearly its true form, but unfortunately, facing Wang Sheng now, it could not stir any turmoil.
Wang Sheng did not allow Hao Hua to kill the Black Fog Giant Snake but instead used sealing power to seal it for research.
The essence of the Black Fog Giant Snake was the same as that of the Heavenly Father, both referred to as “Yun Demon” by the Spirit Clan Elders. This was also its true body, so the information was likely to be abundant.
Soon, the Black Fog Giant Snake was sealed.
After the Black Fog Giant Snake was sealed, the Spirit World calmed down.
“Do such beings have such a deep connection with the Spirit World?”
The original Great Zhou Spirit World, which had already been erased, did not have this effect.
His Divine Thought penetrated the seal, wanting to see through the essence of the Black Fog Giant Snake.
Because of the Reflection of the Spiritual Body, drawing on the power of heaven and earth, this process was simpler than he had imagined.
However, after discerning some information, Wang Sheng’s face did not look good.
“It seems that the Spirit World of the First Dynasty and the Black Fog Giant Snake should not be easily erased…”
The information fed back by the Black Fog Giant Snake was simple; the Qi Fortune Grandmaster System was more malicious than imagined.
Wang Sheng’s Spirit World was composed of his own spiritual power, while the external Spirit Worlds were made up of the spiritual power of living beings. This was also the reason for the appearance of the Qi Fortune Line and why Zhong could control so many sources of the Demon Clan.
The Qi Fortune Line allowed for simple control over the memories of living beings.
But this also led to a terrible consequence.
If the Spirit World or the Black Fog Giant Snake were forcibly destroyed, it would render all the affected living beings stupid, simply put, they would lose their intelligent spirituality.
The Black Fog Giant Snake was somewhat better off, for with Zhong’s death, the Black Fog Giant Snake would gradually disappear, but dissolving the Spirit World could only be done gradually.
The system of the Master of Destiny was fraught with endless troubles; Wang Sheng had now fully realized this.
And this wasn’t even the most despairing aspect.
Taking Zhong and the Black Fog Giant Snake itself as examples, the two were not in a master-servant relationship but more like a symbiotic one. They would affect each other, and the Black Fog Giant Snake instinctively resisted the dissolution of the Spirit World, for that was its foundation for existence. This basic instinct was almost impossible to break.
However, within the Qi Fortune Grandmaster System, due to the special nature of the immense strength of the Master of Destiny, the only way to dissolve the Spirit World was from top to bottom, which again was contradictory to the instincts of the Black Fog Giant Snake.
If one attempted to do it from bottom to top with the strength ceiling in place, they would not stand a chance against the Master of Destiny.
Therefore, whether from top to bottom or bottom to top, it was a vicious cycle, effectively sealing off any potential for advancement in cultivation for a whole world.
“Damn it, how on earth did Qi come up with this system? Easy to establish, but so difficult to remove; no wonder Zhong despaired,” Wang Sheng rarely cursed, but knowing this information, he couldn’t help but do so.
In the end, he sighed inwardly and then established a massive sealing Array in the Spirit World.
He sealed both the Black Fog Giant Snake and the Spirit World, ensuring that as long as the Black Fog Giant Snake existed, the emergence of another being like Zhong and Qi would be greatly restricted.
At least they wouldn’t suddenly become strong. With this layer of restriction, the individual Spirit Worlds could be slowly erased.
After doing these things, Wang Sheng had a part of the Five Internal Gods Hao Hua’s power projected into the Spirit World to guard it before he left the Spirit World.
“The Spirit World of the First Dynasty cannot be violently dismantled; thus, the restriction on strength can’t be completely lifted either…”
Without dissolving the Spirit World, the restriction on strength could not be completely undone.
“The restriction on strength is not a big issue. The success of the Taiping Sect in the former position of Great Zhou represents a possibility of success. But to completely dissolve the Spirit World, the workload for the Taiping Sect seems a bit overwhelming…”
