Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 185: Heavenly Law Foundation Building, Vision: Heavenly Law Shaping Earth

There were too many promising prospects, which made Zhong Cang very conflicted.

However, no matter how conflicted he was, Zhong Cang still had to make a choice.

In the end, after careful consideration, he chose - the Five Elements Rotation!

The reason he chose it instead of Heavenly Heart or Sword Heart was because Zhong Cang had considered that Sword Heart was indeed powerful, and the beauty of breaking all laws with a single sword was undeniable.

But the characteristic of "the heart triumphs over objects" was that the more stubborn it was, the stronger its power became.

If Zhong Cang chose Sword Heart, it would be easy for him to walk the path of being the strongest, but it would also be a path of extreme obsession with the sword.

Walking this path would easily lead to ruthlessness and indifference, so it was not chosen by Zhong Cang.

As for Heavenly Heart, if it weren't for the battle of the Heavenly Array, it would undoubtedly be Zhong Cang's first choice.

However, just now, when the Heavenly Law of the Profound Origin Realm became angry and brought disaster, Zhong Cang had thought about using the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram to resist. However, he discovered that because he was despised by heaven and earth, the range of the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram was reduced to only eighty meters.

Moreover, the aversion of heaven and earth made it very mentally exhausting for Zhong Cang to maintain this range of eighty meters.

And this also made Zhong Cang understand one thing.

"The so-called Heavenly Heart is to make me one with heaven and earth. If in a normal world, where the Heavenly Law is fair and impartial, using Heavenly Heart to gain the assistance of heaven would indeed make me powerful. But if despised by heaven and earth, this skill becomes useless."

Considering the trend of the cultivation world in the next hundred years, or even the next thousand years, it would be about exploring other realms.

Even though he was not prepared to go against the trend, he still had to walk this path.

As someone who had been tainted by the aura of other realms, he would inevitably not be favored by the local Heavenly Law. And the larger the world, the stronger the Heavenly Law, the more obvious the targeting of Zhong Cang and others would be.

In this situation, the role of Heavenly Heart would be greatly weakened.

Of course, Zhong Cang had also thought that when Heavenly Heart developed to its peak, it would become one with heaven and man, simulate the Heavenly Law, and then become the embodiment of the Heavenly Law.

At that time, he would not be bound by the Heavenly Law of the world, but instead could turn the tables.

But that was too far away. Not to mention Foundation Building, even a Nascent Soul cultivator or a Soul Formation True Monarch might not have the ability to become the embodiment of the Heavenly Law.

As someone at the Foundation Building stage, it was impossible for him to choose his innate talent based on what would happen after Soul Formation.

So, Heavenly Heart was excluded by Zhong Cang.

On the other hand, the Five Elements Rotation encompassed the path of the five elements.

In the cultivation world, and even in the Immortal World, it was difficult for anything to transcend the five elements.

By choosing it, no matter which world he was in, Zhong Cang could fully exert his strength.

In this situation, the first choice for Zhong Cang was naturally the Five Elements Rotation.

In addition to this, Zhong Cang had another idea:

"The earth element of the five elements includes the core of the earth. By following the path of the five elements and cultivating to the Late Stage, I can also take into account the path of gravity."

"And this path is no less inferior to the extreme of Heavenly Heart - becoming the embodiment of the Heavenly Law!"

...

With his decision made, Zhong Cang did not hesitate and immediately let the meaning of the Five Elements Rotation merge into his soul.

"Buzz!"

As Zhong Cang made his choice, a rotating five-colored light wheel rushed into his soul, causing his grayish-white soul to shimmer with colorful light.

As his soul underwent changes, there were also visions appearing around Zhong Cang.

"Buzz..."

When Zhong Cang's divine soul merged with the rotation of the five elements, a constantly rotating five-colored light wheel appeared behind Zhong Cang.

The dazzling light wheel gave Zhong Cang a special sense of majesty.

"?!?!"

"This is... an omen, a genuine Foundation Building!"

"Great!"

The phenomenon behind Zhong Cang left some people confused, not knowing what was happening.

But more people widened their eyes in envy and jealousy at the phenomenon behind Zhong Cang.

In their eyes, there was admiration and jealousy.

Of course, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all congratulated Zhong Cang.

It's not surprising that they did so, as the significance of revealing an omen during the advancement to Foundation Building was extremely important.

Just as there are Ninth Grade pills and Foundation Building, there are also different grades of Foundation Building.

According to the summary of the Immortal Cultivation World over the past ten thousand years, most sects divide the grades of Foundation Building into five levels.

These five levels are: insignificant, human Foundation Building, genuine Foundation Building, heavenly Foundation Building, and transcendent Foundation Building.

The so-called insignificant refers to a Foundation Building Perfected Being who forcefully ascended using a Foundation Building Pill.

Human Foundation Building is a Perfected Being who advances independently but does not have any omens appear.

Genuine Foundation Building, like Zhong Cang at the moment, has special omens appear when advancing.

This step is already very difficult, and almost every genuine Foundation Building cultivator can become the true disciple of their respective sects.

As for the higher level of heavenly Foundation Building, in addition to having personal omens, there are also omens from the heavens, such as the simultaneous ringing of ten thousand swords, the blooming of a hundred flowers, the descent of sweet dew, the emergence of a golden lotus from the ground, or the rising of a bright moon over the sea, and so on.

As for transcendent Foundation Building, it is legendary. Even after three thousand years of the Cloud Firmament Sect's establishment, there has only been one case.

The appearance of omens during genuine Foundation Building means that Zhong Cang has a bright future, so naturally people congratulate him.

However, there are also people who sigh.

Like Jingming Perfected Being:

"It's a pity, it's only genuine Foundation Building. It would be so much better if it were heavenly Foundation Building."

Hearing this, Hualin Perfected Being said speechlessly:

"Heavenly Foundation Building is not that easy. Although it's not as rare as transcendent Foundation Building, as the legends say, it's still rare to see a heavenly Foundation Building cultivator within a hundred years."

Jingming Perfected Being did not refute this statement, but he still felt some emotion:

"Of course, I know that achieving heavenly Foundation Building is difficult, but Zhong Cang's performance gives me hope... Single-handedly killing seven hundred demonic cultivators with a sword, this is not something an ordinary cultivator can do. Even a heavenly Foundation Building cultivator may not be as outstanding as him. With such strength, I naturally have expectations for him."

As the two Perfected Beings were feeling emotional, the demonic cultivators watching nearby were also puzzled.

"He's only genuine Foundation Building?"

"I thought it was heavenly Foundation Building."

The leaders of the demonic cultivators, including Bailin Perfected Being, were even somewhat annoyed:

"Damn it, I've planned so much for this bastard, and now I'm at a loss!"

Some people sighed at the phenomenon behind Zhong Cang, while others lamented.

There were also those who tried to think about the reasons behind it.

Slowly, some people actually figured out something.

"Brother Zhong Cang revealing his Earth Level Foundation Building is a normal thing. After all, current strength and future potential are not the same thing."

"There are many people who can overpower their peers at the Low Level by overdrawing their potential. But excessive overdrawing makes it difficult for them to even achieve Foundation Building."

"Although Brother Zhong Cang hasn't overdrafted, we all know that his spiritual root talent is Third Grade, which greatly affects his future."

"And the phenomenon during Foundation Building is about the future, so naturally Brother Zhong Cang's evaluation will be lower..."

This statement has gained recognition from many people.

This made them look at Zhong Cang with even more regret.

Zhong Cang completely ignored these gazes and sighs.

The reason for this is twofold: disdain and lack of time.

After engraving the meaning of the Five Elements' rotation into his soul, Zhong Cang was astonished to discover that after bearing one true meaning, his soul did not feel overflowing.

"I can still bear other true meanings!"

"Why is it said that a person can only bear one kind..."

Before finishing his sentence, Zhong Cang thought of something:

"That's right, ordinary cultivators can indeed only bear one kind, but the so-called geniuses can do what ordinary people cannot!"

Feeling this, Zhong Cang did not hesitate and immediately chose to bear the true meaning of nourishment.

The reason for choosing it is just as Zhong Cang said before, people rely on nourishment for survival, even cultivators and deities need nourishment to exist.

This is the foundation of all living beings, and its future is vast.

"Buzz!"

As Zhong Cang chose the true meaning of nourishment, he once again felt astonished. This true meaning did not integrate into Zhong Cang's soul, but attached itself to his physical body.

With the integration of the true meaning of nourishment and his physical body, a change occurred once again behind Zhong Cang in reality.

"Boom!"

The five-colored light wheel behind Zhong Cang first dispersed.

Then, with the five-colored light wheel as the core, a giant shadow of a deity as tall as a mountain appeared behind Zhong Cang.

At the same time as the giant shadow of the deity appeared, a deep and dark void also appeared in the sky.

That black hole gave people an incomparable sense of devouring everything.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

After a while, someone reacted and exclaimed:

"The shadow of the deity... this is the manifestation of the Great Divine Ability Law and Heaven. Brother Zhong Cang has comprehended the preliminary ability of Law and Heaven!"

"No, it's not Law and Heaven, it's Heavenly Law Shaping Earth!"

As disciples of a major sect, Zhong Cang's fellow disciples had broad knowledge. Just from the anomalies that appeared behind Zhong Cang, they deduced his ability.

Of course, among these cultivators, there were also ordinary cultivators from smaller sects who didn't understand the difference between Law and Heaven and Heavenly Law Shaping Earth. As a result, someone directly asked.

"What's the difference between Law and Heaven and Heavenly Law Shaping Earth?"

"The difference is significant. It involves Gold Core and spellcasting..."

The family cultivator who was asked originally wanted to explain the principles, but seeing the disciple's confused expression, he ultimately gave up on explaining from the principles and only briefly mentioned the simplest difference between these two spells.

"Law and Heaven is manifested by gathering spiritual energy with the Primordial Spirit. Overall, it is an energy body similar to a divine monarch."

"And Heavenly Law Shaping Earth is the technique of enlarging the physical body!"

After explaining, the cultivators of that family and some others exclaimed, "I didn't expect that Senior Brother not only has strong magical powers, but also a powerful physical body."

The vision of Heavenly Law Shaping Earth shocked many people.

Some people were more concerned about the hollow vision in the sky above.

"Such a vision should be bestowed by heaven and earth. Could Senior Brother Zhong Cang have achieved Foundation Building through the Heavenly Way?" someone asked.

Upon hearing this question, before the disciple could speak, Perfected Being Hualin burst into laughter.

"Hahaha... There's no need to look at the hollow vision. The giant shadow of Heavenly Law Shaping Earth is not a vision that can be condensed by human power, but a divine assistance from heaven and earth. According to the classification in the cultivation world, anyone who manifests the giant shadow is undoubtedly a Foundation Building cultivator of the Heavenly Way!"

"Moreover, the vision of the giant shadow is also considered strong among Foundation Building cultivators!"

As Hualin Perfected Being spoke, his smile didn't stop.

And he wasn't the only one showing a smile. Most of the Foundation Building cultivators around him were in a good mood.

Some even shouted, "Heaven blesses our Cloud Firmament Sect!"

From this, one could see the power of Foundation Building in the Heavenly Way.

However, while everyone was happy, some people frowned and looked at the hollow in the sky.

"How could it be an evil vision?"

"What's wrong with an evil vision? We are not a moral sect. As long as the evil is not directed at humans, let it be evil."

When advancing, cultivators verify their cultivation path with heaven and earth, and there are many visions that can manifest. The Bright Moon Rises Over The Sea and the Heavenly Dew Descends, the Golden Lotus Emerges from the Earth... mentioned by Zhong Cang earlier are all visions manifested by righteous cultivators.

In addition to the righteous sects, the demonic sects also have peerless geniuses who naturally manifest visions when advancing.

However, the visions that appear when peerless geniuses on the path of slaughter and destruction advance can never be the descent of heavenly dew or the blooming of golden lotuses.

In the demonic sects, the visions that appear when peerless geniuses advance are mostly a sea of blood, mountains of corpses, or the arrival of a blood moon that obscures the sun.

There are also visions that reveal the shadow of a three-headed, six-armed demon or bury everything under a mountainous tomb.

Anyway, in the demonic sects, the visions that appear when geniuses advance don't give people a good feeling.

And Zhong Cang's advancement, in addition to the giant shadow, also had the appearance of a hollow void, which was not very pleasant.

Fortunately, as Perfected Being Jingming, who defended Zhong Cang, said, Cloud Firmament Sect is not primarily focused on cultivating virtue and morality.

Because they are on the brink of the demonic realm, since the establishment of Cloud Firmament Sect, they have been constantly engaged in battles.

Not to mention the appearance of a hollow void, when some people advanced, they even manifested a sea of blood that was filled with the bodies of demons.

With countless geniuses who have committed countless killings before, Zhong Cang's evil vision did not cause a stir.

On the contrary, many people felt that the more evil, the better.

"In this chaotic time with the demonic realm, the demonic country, and foreign cultivators with sinister intentions, our sect should have more fierce and ruthless cultivators to scare them away."

While sighing, someone approached Zhong Cang, preparing to congratulate him.

However, while walking halfway, suddenly, someone noticed that Zhong Cang's advancement was not yet complete. There was a new vision appearing in the sky.
