In the Middle Thousand World hierarchy, the spiritual energy of this Ghost God World is even thinner than the absolute spiritless land of the Taiyuan Realm, to the point where it can’t even be called spiritual energy, only primordial energy.
In terms of Primordial Spirit Power alone, even the Martial Dynasty World of my first life seems a bit more abundant than this.
This is the reason for Shen Hex’s astonishnt.
Heaven and Earth Primordial Spirit is the Origin Power of a world, and logically, a Middle Thousand World should never have such thin spiritual energy.
Could sothing have happened, like the ancient Immortal-Demon war in the Taiyuan Realm, causing the Primordial Spirit to retreat?
No, if the Primordial Spirit retreated, the world would inevitably be downgraded.
Currently, it remains a Middle Thousand World; no matter how much the Primordial Spirit retreats, it couldn’t possibly be to such an extent.
"Then there’s only one explanation."
Shen Hex muttered to himself, his eyes filled with an inexplicable expression.
The world’s hierarchy hasn’t fallen, yet there’s no Heaven and Earth Primordial Spirit; the only possibility is that this world’s Origin Power exists in an alternative manner rather than as conventional spiritual energy.
If it’s not spiritual energy, then what is it?
Shen Hex’s gaze shifted, looking towards the void at the wisps of ethereal blue smoke.
"Incense smoke?"
"To be precise, it’s the Power of Divine Soul!"
"This world, like the Spirit Control Realm, has its Origin Power acting upon the Divine Soul, especially the human Divine Soul. Each person’s Divine Soul possesses strong power, akin to a generator—no, it should be a spirit stone mine!"
"Because this world is even more extre than the Spirit Control Realm. Although the Origin Power in the Spirit Control Realm acts on the soul, it’s only partial, not entirely, with a substantial portion still existing as spiritual energy to nurture various spirit beasts."
"In this world, it’s completely extre, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is sparse to the utmost degree, with ninety-nine percent of the world’s Origin Power contained within the Divine Soul of living beings; even a commoner’s Divine Soul possesses wondrous power, equivalent to a spirit stone in the Primordial Spirit World."
"Such an extre world... is it a man-made result?"
Shen Hex’s eyes narrowed, forming a terrifying hypothesis.
Artificially created realms indeed inspire dread.
But this isn’t the focus, at least not now.
The main point is, does such a world hold any use for him?
"Presumably, this world’s cultivation system will revolve entirely around the Divine Soul."
"Divine Soul Cultivation thod, Divine Dao System?"
"Power of incense smoke, Ghost God Ability?"
Shen Hex furrowed his brows, his thoughts racing.
His purpose for transmigrating again is to enhance his power.
Yet after several lifetis of accumulation, his cultivation foundations are already rich, his cultivation system tending towards perfection, leaving little room for further optimization.
But the Divine Soul is an exception, with the simultaneous cultivation of the Immortal Martial Spirit Three Techniques. The Martial Dao is supported by the Martial Arts System of the main world, the Immortal Dao enriched by the essence of the current world and Taiyuan Realm. Both systems are presently considered perfect.
Only the Spirit Control is an exception. Although the main world has many Divine Soul cultivation thods that helped him supplent the deficiencies of the Spirit Control Scripture, Shen Hex feels there’s still a bit lacking, believing the potential of Divine Soul cultivation and the Spirit Control System goes beyond this, rely hindered by the lack of thods to explore.
Now it seems, the Divine Dao System of this Ghost God World holds promise to be compatible with his Spirit Control Technique, potentially eliminating the final weak point in his Three thods Cultivation.
To have transmigrated to such a world, is this "arriving with a pillow when sleepy" developnt pure coincidence, or is there heavenly will in the background?
Shen Hex’s eyes narrowed, casting aside this anomaly.
Regardless of coincidence or heavenly will, he remains powerless at present.
So, don’t overthink; focusing on the present is essential.
If this world can redy the deficiencies of his Spirit Control Technique, then it bears exploration.
Although, due to the influence of the Cosmic Evil God, the Divine Dao thod is viewed with skepticism in the real world, that doesn’t an it lacks value, especially for a transmigrator like himself.
Can’t deal with it in the real world, can’t handle it in the Dream Butterfly World?
One shouldn’t be short-sighted; side values are also values, capable of yielding benefits.
Thus, this world can be developed!
But how should it be developed?
"Using the Primordial Spirit Technique to absorb incense smoke?"
"Not feasible, at least not comprehensible at the mont!"
"In this world, the Power of incense smoke is condensed from living beings’ Divine Souls. Although its nature is similar to spirit stones, it can’t be absorbed like spiritual energy. Instead, it can only be condensed and refined through faith, sacrifice, and such devout and focused approaches, transforming into the power of incense smoke?"
"Naturally, it can also be a bit crude and directly devoured!"
"In this world, besides Ghost Gods, there should also exist many demons, not relying on spiritual energy to cultivate, but rather growing by consuming living beings, even targeting deities."
"Eating people is impossible; the only path I can take is the Divine Dao’s way. But this Divine Dao thod... Lord of the Mansion?"
"It seems the recent imperial examination was the Ghost God entering the world examination. In his previous life, Song Xiang served as a county instructor; not only was his own Divine Soul power stronger than ordinary people, but he also possessed so Literary Qi and Talent ford from others’ worship and reverence."
"After all, serving as a teacher involves kneeling and worshipping. Over ti, changes are inevitable, so these individuals are generally recruited by various Ghost Gods after death for cultivation?"
"In this case, there should also be many remarkable individuals in the real world, relying on faith-consolidated Literary and Righteous Qi, Dragon Qi and Emperor’s Qi, capable of possessing so divine techniques. For instance, a Great Confucian Scholar’s shout extinguishing ghosts, a Human Emperor’s descent silencing all thods?"
"But that’s all. After all, Essence, Qi, and Spirit are the foundation of the human body. Without spiritual energy to cultivate the corporeal essence and magical power, relying solely on the Divine Soul for support can’t endure long; one day the physical body will decay and perish, and the ans are simplistic with limited effect. While it may counter Ghost Gods, it’s not as effective against ordinary human armies; even a Human Emperor or a Great Confucian Scholar would et their fate under a single blade."
"Yet, after the body decays, these revered and worshipped Great Confucian Scholars and even Human Emperors descending to the Underworld would stand out and beco Great Gods."
"The incense smoke of all beings, Divine Dao cultivation!"
"Yin and Yang Realms, life and death separated by a chasm!"
"Man-eating demons, soul-consuming evil spirits!"
"Court and Jianghu, Dukes, Marquises, Generals!"
"Daoist, Buddhist, Confucian, Legalist, Three Religions and Nine Schools!"
"Such a world..."
"Intriguing, intriguing!"
Shen Hex’s gaze changed, his thoughts spinning, already having unraveled everything.
Although lacking any supporting evidence, his accumulated foundation from multiple lifetis of cultivation and the vast experience of a transmigrator were more than enough for him to grasp the whole picture from a small glimpse.
"To cultivate, I must enter the Divine Dao!"
"But entering the Divine Dao isn’t easy; without holding a high position in life, it’s difficult to gain respect in death."
"In his previous life, Song Xiang served as a county instructor, a junior eighth-grade civil servant. Even if it ans a discounted status in death unable to continue serving as an official, becoming a junior clerk shouldn’t be a problem."
"As long as I enter the system and gain the cultivation thod, I can gradually develop and plan to grow big!"
"Apart from that..."
Shen Hex’s thoughts raced, quickly establishing a developnt strategy; subsequently, he lowered his gaze, calling forth the professional panel in his mind.
Profession!
The strength of professionals needs no elaboration.
Even if the Yin Departnt examination this ti ends without success, unable to beco a deity, I can still carve out a path relying on professional power, albeit with much more hardship.
Currently, the examination result remains unknown; to develop, I must focus on the profession.
As the professional panel was summoned, it displayed nothing because he hadn’t switched professions yet.
However, this triggered an effect, and imdiately, information erged.
"Profession successfully changed!"
"You’ve initiated a Tier One Profession—Yin Soul!"
"You’ve acquired Professional Talent—Food Fragrance!"
Song Xiang (Shen Hex)
Profession: Yin Soul (Life is Yang, death is Yin; you are an Yin Soul who has recently undergone the transformation of life and death. You can enhance your professional level by absorbing incense smoke, enjoying offerings, and devouring souls. With each professional level gained, the power of the Divine Soul slightly increases.)
Professional Talent: Food Fragrance (Those who consu essence are human, those who consu qi are immortal, those who consu fragrance are divine; the effectiveness of consuming incense smoke is slightly enhanced, with an almost imperceptible chance to condense corresponding Divine Seals based on the nature of incense smoke and type of faith.)
Professional Rank: Tier One.
Professional Items: None.
Professional Skills: None.
