Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God
chapter-1994

Chapter 1994 Sword Soul However, she buried this impulse deeply. She knew that there would be time in the future. For now, she had to become stronger.

The coming trials wouldn't be joke… Compared to them, the Ancient Battlefield that had thrown the mortal plane into an upheaval was nothing more than a blip. Dyon sighed. "This is good. I can understand the feelings of hatred Rose has for me… I can only do right by her by helping this timeline's Jade to rise above her former self." "Is Jade…" Saru hesitated, knowing Dyon likely wouldn't want to say much on the topic. "… Is she one of us?" Dyon didn't need to think much to understand what Saru meant.

By "us", she was clearly referring to herself and Lilith, alluding to the odd ties between the two of them and Dyon. Dyon smiled. "You could say so… It's just that she was very unlucky in this life. Even if she awakens to her true self and comes to know all the good she's done in the past even beyond her sacrifice for me in this life, she won't be able to forgive herself.

This is why I'm leaving her under Rose's tutelage. She must leap over the barrier under her own power. My interference will only hinder her…" Saru and Lilith looked at one another before nodding. "Saru, I've already laid out the path for you.

You just need to focus on circulating the special method I've taught you and your Faith Seed will naturally strengthen your body. "Lilith, however… Your path is more complex. As I've told you, I've created something special for you, but it's more accurate to say that I've only perfect a path you yourself created. "You'll refine your nascent soul into a Sword Soul." "Sword soul." Lilith's eyes brightened at these words. Knowing that she didn't have a place here, Saru went off into the depths of Soul Palace, entering her personal cultivation room to seclude herself.

As for Dyon and Lilith, they entered the beautiful back gardens of the Palace, sitting cross legged across from each other. "I cannot take credit for this." Dyon said with a smile. "This is a path you refined for yourself, I'm only helping you with the last stage. "Your former self was quite famous for her sword. In fact, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that you were one of the greatest sword masters to ever live. "However, your cultivation talent was lacking. Though you sword reached the pinnacle of the world, you never stepped before the Immortal Celestial Realm. "Still, this wasn't entirely due to lack of talent.

Much of it was because you attempted to forge a new cultivation path using True Sprites as the template." Dyon knew quite well that the so-called sprites of this mortal plane were merely half-sprites. In fact, even calling them half-sprites was doing them too much of a favor. In reality, one of their ancestors a long way in the past was birthed by a sprite and a human's love.

This passed on the sprite trait through their generations, but this trait continuously weakened with each born child. Therefore, the more accurate name for those of the former Sprite Alliance would be part sprites, because their abilities were already far too diluted to be considered as half a sprite. The true sprites were those like Little Rain.

Unfortunately, it had already been over a century since Little Rain fell into a deep sleep after absorbing that newborn fire sprite. Even to now, he hardly showed signs of awakening. There was once he showed some movement.

Back when Clara awakened her Fire Spirit Constitution, Dyon sensed a small stir. But since then, there was nothing. "Sprites?" Lilith blinked with curiosity. "Sprites cultivate as well, but they have their own special path. They resonate with Heavenly Laws instead of absorbing qi.

The more in tune they are with their affinity, the greater their strength becomes. It's a slower process, but their strength is far more infallible when it reaches a certain level. Some of the most powerful, untouchable entities on the Immortal Plane are sprites." "So I wanted to emulate them?" "Precisely.

But this is incredibly difficult. This is especially so since cultivation after the Immortal Law Realm requires one's Origin Source. This meant that instead of resonating with Heavenly Laws which would actually restrict you in the future, you wanted to resonate with your own Origin Source." The Origin Source represented breaking away from the Heavens and forming one's own path.

Obviously, if Lilith focused her everything on resonating with the Heavens, she would never be able to take that last step as rise above it all. This was precisely the reason Sprites were just 'one of' and not the most powerful entities on the Immortal Plane. Their cultivation method barred them entirely from reaching the true pinnacle of cultivation. "However, before you could even consider doing any of this, you needed to change the foundation of your nascent soul.

But playing around with one's soul in such a fashion is incredibly dangerous. It's not something to be done lightly. You could lose your life at any time." "Change the foundation…" Lilith muttered. "A mortal soul is considered formless, it only acts as a link to the Heavens.

A nascent soul is the first stage of a cultivator grasping their own identity. By forming your soul into your likeness, you're taking the first step toward cutting ties from the Heavens. "However, in my opinion, calling this a first step is giving it too much credit. There's too much we don't control about this nascent soul.

In fact, it takes the very likeness of our own looks, looks we ourselves didn't choose to begin with. "Only when the looks of your nascent soul become superficial instead of an obligation will you have truly broken away. But this step is not easy, and its even more complicated when your goal is to shift away from the human form entirely to create something completely different.
