Chapter 138 The Secret Truth of the Demon Sect
Among them was the "Flowing Fire Flying Star Art."
This Spell, similar to Earth Movement Escape, is a type of special escape art.
As the name suggests,
Earth Movement Escape requires Earth attribute magical power to activate, allowing the Cultivator to freely traverse through any soil during its duration.
The Flowing Fire Flying Star Art is a Fire attribute Spell that allows the Cultivator to summon fiery shooting stars behind him, increasing his speed through layers of heat waves.
Although the attributes of the two are vastly different,
their escape speeds when fully unleashed are on par.
Li Lan naturally wouldn't dislike having too many such life-saving escape methods.
Moreover, he happened to possess Fire attribute magical power within him, meeting the necessary conditions for casting the Spell.
Therefore, learning the Flowing Fire Flying Star Art became Li Lan's urgent task at hand.
Besides this Spell that could be immediately useful,
he also found a particularly strange Spell manual in his Storage Pouch.
This Spell was called "《Rebirth Technique》."
As soon as Li Lan touched this tattered booklet, he was startled by the prompt before him.
"《Rebirth Technique》 incomplete manual: Requires 300 years of Lifespan to complete."
"Current remaining Lifespan: 42 years."
This was perhaps the most incomplete Spell he had ever seen since he began Cultivating Immortals,
requiring the most Lifespan to complete.
What kind of Spell would require such a huge price?
Out of curiosity,
Li Lan began to read it carefully.
Who would have thought that the more he read, the heavier his expression became.
In the end,
even he, who was always steady in Heart-Nature and never showed his emotions,
couldn't help but change color, his pupils filled with surprise and shock.
Although the "《Rebirth Technique》" required a lot of Lifespan, the effect after learning the Spell was extraordinarily sinister.
In short,
this Spell could allow a Cultivator to defy the Heavenly Dao and live another life through special means.
It seemed very beautiful,
but the process of casting the Spell was quite cruel.
To cast this Spell, one must first find a suitable vessel.
Generally, a pregnant woman in her tenth month of pregnancy is best.
A Cultivator using the "《Rebirth Technique》\
,"can abandon his physical body and Seal his Soul and Divine Sense into an unborn infant.
The chosen child, under the influence of the Cultivator,
will most likely possess a Spiritual Root.
Once this child grows up and Cultivates to the Qi Refining Second Level Realm,
and can withstand the powerful Divine Sense and Soul of the Cultivator from his previous life, as long as he is slightly stimulated by some past experiences, he can reawaken and have a second life.
This stage, in the "《Rebirth Technique》", is collectively referred to as 'Awakening Innate Wisdom'.
As for what happens to the original Soul of the chosen person after the Innate Wisdom Awakens, the Spell does not mention.
Li Lan finished reading the entire text, cold sweat seeping uncontrollably down his back.
But at the same time, at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
Many previously perplexing points finally became clear.
It turned out that he had long been caught in a huge conspiracy.
This was not some "《Rebirth Technique》" at all; this was clearly a form of Possession!
One insight led to many.
All the experiences of these years flashed through his mind one by one.
Huangni Town, his first trip to Jiuhua County City, the Dust Washing Ceremony, Elder Sword Chen's past actions—all now had answers.
Li Lan finally understood at this moment,
how those Devil Path Evil Cultivators had quietly completed their Possessions.
No wonder in Huangni Town,
Huang Erdan's wife mysteriously disappeared when she was ten months pregnant.
No wonder that unborn infant possessed Divine Sense comparable to the Qi Refining First Level Realm.
No wonder in recent years, the number of Mortals who joined various Sects suddenly increased,
and the number of those found to have Spiritual Root Aptitude suddenly multiplied several times.
No wonder Elder Sword Chen brought incomplete Cultivation Techniques like the "Mixed Origin Five Elements True Art" to Guangji Temple.
No wonder when he first went to Jiuhua County City, he encountered Demonic Path劫 Cultivators twice along the way.
No wonder after that return,
those fellow Disciples of Guangji Temple, led by Heavenly Spiritual Root Liu Yan, suddenly had drastic changes in their Heart-Nature.
Everything was not accidental, but premeditated.
It is likely that these Devil Path Evil Cultivators used this method,
to infiltrate the major Sects in the County South Region, such as Guangji Temple, Lingxiao Sect, and Three Treasures Temple, turning them into sieves.
No, it's not just the County South Region, nor is it limited to those large Sects.
Even in this County North region, the Wang family and other small and medium-sized Families are like this.
The actions of these Devil Path Evil Cultivators are so obvious, does the Human Emperor Hall, as the leader of the Righteous Path, not notice anything at all, and not care at all?
Thinking of the last time he saw Heavenly Spiritual Root Liu Yan at Guangji Temple and inadvertently learned of his whereabouts,
cold sweat slowly appeared on Li Lan's forehead.
This Human Emperor Hall, perhaps, has also been infiltrated by Devil Path Evil Cultivators?
However, he quickly dispelled this terrifying conjecture from his mind.
Although the "《Rebirth Technique》" is sinister, it is not without drawbacks.
Limited by Soul and Divine Sense, each Cultivator can only use this Spell once in his lifetime.
And according to the Cultivator's Realm before his death,
there are also strict requirements when choosing the reborn person.
Cultivators above the Golden Core Stage,
the Rebirth target they seek requires at least one parent to also possess a Spiritual Root.
Only then can they withstand the powerful Primordial Spirit and Divine Sense of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.
As for Cultivators below the Golden Core Stage,
the Rebirth target they seek requires both parents to be Mortals without Spiritual Roots.
If it were the same as Golden Core Stage Cultivators,
the chosen child's Divine Sense would be too strong and Aptitude too good, risking an inability to suppress it, leading to the failure of Innate Wisdom Awakening.
This is also one of the reasons why Innate Wisdom Awakening is usually chosen at the Qi Refining Second Level.
Cultivators at this Realm, their bodies are neither too strong nor too weak,
which is more conducive for the Rebirther to usurp the nest.
After this optimal time period,
once the chosen child's Cultivation Realm, Divine Sense, etc., have all grown,
the difficulty of Awakening Innate Wisdom will undoubtedly double,
and a slight carelessness will lead to backlash, and all the painstaking efforts will be for naught for the other party.
Besides these drawbacks,
there is one biggest disadvantage to casting this "《Rebirth Technique》."
No matter how smooth the process is,
no matter how powerful the talent after regaining a body is,
the Rebirther can only stop at the Foundation Establishment Stage Realm and will be unable to form a Golden Core throughout his life.
This may be a Restriction set by the Spell's creator later,
or perhaps because such an evil Spell truly harms the Heavenly Dao, thus the Heavenly Dao specifically sent down this punishment.
In any case, the specific truth no longer matters.
Li Lan pondered for a moment,
and according to the method described in the "《Rebirth Technique》\
,"he carefully re-examined his body.
The final result made him breathe a heavy sigh of relief,
Li Lan's current consciousness was still his own.
There was no other Soul present in his body at this time.
This was enough to prove that,
Li Lan was not a Rebirther, nor was he a chosen one,
and the restriction of being unable to form a Core after casting the "《Rebirth Technique》" did not apply to him.
Although forming a Core with a false Spiritual Root seemed too fantastical,
at least Li Lan's future path was not completely blocked, and there was still a glimmer of hope.
As for why that half-Immortal urged him to embark on this path of seeking Immortality and Dao back then,
Li Lan had not yet figured out the reason.
This question would probably only be answered when he returned to Qinglan Township later and confronted him face to face.
However, this matter was not very important,
so he did not intend to verify it now.
