Lin Xiao smiled, realizing he had been speaking somewhat absentmindedly. He quickly said a couple more sentences to Xun Er before ending the video call.
For some reason, the unease in his heart remained just as intense.
...
"I, can become a god."
"I am a god..."
Qi Tian repeatedly uttered these two sentences, his eyes growing brighter with each repetition.
His hands moved constantly over the computer, refining materials in the simulator into various forms again and again, his face filled with an ever-increasing desire.
At this moment, the power of faith began to envelop his entire body, little by little.
His body was naturally much sturdier than the former Pope's, and just as Lin Xiao had said, Qi Tian could indeed use the power of faith, and his capacity to contain it far surpassed that of the Inquisitors and others.
Now, under constant self-hypnosis, this power of faith began to seep into his Dantian from the surface of his body.
Subsequently, the power of faith started to enhance the quality of his spiritual energy. His soul gradually began to detach from its original position, a layer of purple light appearing on its outermost surface.
Then, his soul entered the Dantian.
At this very moment, the power of faith instantly enveloped his soul. All the spiritual energy within his body merged into his soul.
The object within his Dantian, resembling a golden core, also cracked open.
Following this, his soul, carrying all the spiritual energy, entered the fissure!
Qi Tian himself was unaware of what was happening. His body and his obsession continued their actions, while his soul, accompanied by the power of faith, ascended to another level.
The power of faith also enveloped the cracked golden core, completely repairing it.
Before long, the golden core cracked open again!
This time, it wasn't a small fissure but split directly in half. An infant leaped out from within. Upon emerging, the infant held the two halves in its hands and swallowed them.
At this instant, a large portion of the spiritual energy on Dragon Tiger Mountain was stirred.
Innumerable streams of spiritual energy converged around Qi Tian.
"This kid, he's breaking through?"
The Old Celestial Master looked curiously at Qi Tian, who was sitting cross-legged. Hadn't this kid been fiddling with his computer just moments ago? Why had he suddenly started cultivating?
And...
This fellow doesn't seem to be continuing on the path of combining martial arts and cultivation. There's also a hint of Western cultivators about him.
Combining the strengths of various schools?
The Old Celestial Master nodded in agreement. No cultivator should remain stagnant. Whatever can be learned from should be well learned, allowing one to advance further on the path of cultivation.
That was how the former Old Celestial Master had walked his path, though at the time he hadn't yet drawn from Western cultivation systems.
Now, Qi Tian could be considered a pioneer.
Is he about to break through to the Immortal Realm on Earth?
It doesn't quite seem like it.
If he were to enter the Immortal Realm on Earth, he would naturally sense the tremors of heaven and earth, and tribulations would descend upon this realm, along with the advent of Dao charm.
But now, there is nothing. Only Qi Tian is breaking through, his aura growing increasingly dense and powerful.
"The Heavenly Dao is incomplete?"
