Xianxia: Why am I here?

271 Forging an energy body

Getting this kind of knowledge already made him numb as he was sure that this neutron star did not seem to be capable of dying out unless some stronger force destroyed it as the power sources were being generated from the laws around it forming worlds for it to devour, and this resulted in a self-sustainable star. In the human body, this was already scary enough but he was dazed as he thought about the space where the Neutron star existed, it already surpassed it, and thus if one were like it would that mean they were even older? Or could outlive the neutron star that seemed almost immortal.

The word immortal indeed came to his mind and his mind was racing from all these random thoughts and some longing could be seen in his eyes. But he took some time to calm his mind down, as he needed to take things to step by step to accomplish anything. At this moment he could feel that his body was becoming stronger and stronger and had some thoughts about trying the nine golden body art, but he pushed the idea aside for the moment. In the area of physical body he was indeed strong and so was his spirit thus he wanted to further enhance his body before he could improve and he agreed to this train of thought. His mind was already at the standard, but he did not think it was at the most optimal level to accomplish his goals, hence even wanted to go further attaining a mind world first. But this was not something that could be forced as his mental state had yet to reach that threshold.

In this state, he could only slowly grind his mental state to develop but at the moment he would not accomplish it quickly. The neutron star seemed to have a high temperature on its surface and he had not paid much attention but on second thought, he seemed to realize that he had to at least start trying to grasp this too. High temperature and gravity seemed to be something he has his attention on but after some thought, he realized that when non reached a certain point perhaps gravity and temperature become insignificant. The combination of temperature and gravity was distorting space around the neutron star as he could barely manage to view the situation on it.

He calmed down his state of mind and then looked towards the neutron star to try and gain some more inspiration. “With my weak state of mind, it seems that finding some things out would be very tough, and I’m going to have to come up with some other means out. The most important thing for me now though is to put myself in a visualization state.” Wang had developed his body to this level but he could see that the system he was trying to change to was already scary enough in all aspects. The questions about the source of this system also seemed to exist in his mind. Wang had uneasiness since he had to change his usual activities by just staying in this underground space watching a neutron star.

With the dimensional space, he could safely manage to grasp small visual aspects of the neutron star without suffering the effects of gravity and high temperature. In the place, even his clothes had already been destroyed and at the same time, he seemed to realize that perhaps if his body could turn into energy then he could move even closer to the neutron star and improve his perception of it. Near the edge of the dimensional barrier, he indeed could feel it and thus he was in a dilemma as his body could not move beyond the shield. In the beginning, he assumed that he could keep at this level for some time but now he had no choice but to perfect the level for his own cultivation.

Compared to before, his foundation was after all already very high. He retreated and sat down before starting to slowly use his perception to grasp all the cells in the body. Intense vibrations could be perceived happening in his body as the activity was very pronounced and each cell seemed to have its own functions. For the moment he just had to fuse his spirit to them first, and this process was in itself not easy. The current cell activity in his body was exaggerated making his body strengthen continuously, a common characteristic of this system.

With the immense energy in this place, he initiated the nine golden body art, making the vibrations of cells more intense, as energy was being absorbed by the cells and then spread through the body resulting in the death and rebirth of some tissues and cells. This was indeed unique compared to what he had expected. Seeing it happen he could not help but marvel at evolution, especially seeing it happen right before him. At the moment he had forgotten about the terrifying gravity and temperature of the neutron star since his body was changing rapidly under its influence.

At this moment he indeed was at the limit of attaining an energy body and the cells in his body were more adaptive. The more energy he consumed the higher the level of his body improved but in the end, it could not be improved. He was already sure that this would require innate substance so he did not bother trying to force the body art to break through. In the same way, he indeed required more energy to be fused in his cells to take cells into transforming into an energy body. Even with the fast pace of energy in Wang’s body, he could feel that his cells were not saturated. In the same way, something interesting actually happened, and that was that the energy in his inner world was being dragged into the cells. In this way, the inner world he had worked hard to set up was crumbling slowly while another one seemed to solidify made up of pure genetic energy.

The more he experienced this, the easier to understand its operations. He could perceive all the changes that seemed to happen and the processes involved within the body to the cells as though everything was under his control and at the same time operating independently. His cells were now slowly being branded and this required more energy causing even the other energy reserves in the body to be slowly converted into food for the cells. Whatever was in the body was faster converted into food by the cells rather than the energy being absorbed in the surroundings.

.....

The characteristic of energy is that it can change forms at will. To accomplish this was not a big deal to him at this moment since he had already a potential value beyond a hundred. He could easily comprehend the basic rules of energy and to accomplish this was not a big deal at all after he had fused his consciousness on the cells, all over his body which numbered all the way to hundreds of trillions.

With his mind power covering everything he could see this and thus he had to take his time but in the end, his observation of energy allowed him to use some tricks, such as attaching his consciousness to the energy going into the cells and allowing circulation. In the end, this indeed turned out faster but he could feel that he was exhausted mentally but did not bother with this as the end result would be something like it regardless of the route he chose.

In this way, he seemed to be slowly figuring out some tricks about the energy and when he tried several tricks he already seemed to understand that one having an energy body it was very difficult for those in the Law realm to kill them unless someone in the heaven and man realm is in the vicinity using the power of heaven and earth to stop one from escaping and stripping the consciousness from the cells when they disperse. The more he looked through this system the more excited he became.

Instead of trying to focus on the complicated aspects of all this, Wang was slowly digesting the basics and this added together seemed to open the door for him on the energy manifestation level. What he had to do was hold on as the process of the trillions of cells in his body become infused with consciousness. At that time other than improvement in his consciousness he would also have strengthened his survival capabilities in the same realm. When he was trying to refine innate substance he had come in contact with energy manipulation and thus at this moment, he could only confirm some guesses to enlarge his knowledge.

Unlike situations where one has to focus on the knowledge one does not understand, Wang went further to slowly develop his comprehension of energy from some of the doubts he had when he dealt with innate substance.

“It seems that potential value is important in my future path, otherwise it would take a long to make progress. But this can all be said to be due to the route I have taken.”
