Infinite Professions

Chapter 281 - 149: Fusion_2

In this regard, Dao Xuankong has a significant advantage. After all, as a Zen Buddhist Disciple heavily cultivated by the Dharma Martial Mansion, his profession is sure to be unique and powerful.

But no matter how unique and powerful, it’s still not enough compared to Shen Hex, who returned from Taiyuan.

Longevity Hidden Cultivation, Law Creation in Pursuit of the Dao, and the Merit of Ruling the Age!

The former can use Krypton Life to understand the Dao, the latter can practice false to become true.

Zen Buddhist Disciple, Dharma Divine Skill?

Indeed, not bad.

But that is at most a Tier Five profession, relying on the power and merit of a single person.

While he is a Hermit, Immortal, Seeker, Law Founder, Daoist Palace Master.

The career path founded by Taiyuan not only has the utility of personal power like Longevity Hidden Cultivation and Krypton Life Dao comprehension but also collective practices such as Law Creation in Pursuit of the Dao, practicing false to become true, and Dao Arts ruling the age.

The impact of these professions undoubtedly far surpasses Dao Xuankong.

Putting aside other matters, just take the Demon Saber Dao Sword for instance, which he comprehended through his profession and Krypton Life cultivation, then refined collectively by borrowing illusion for cultivation, reaching near perfection. Ultimately, with the aid of Taiyuan’s Celestial Destiny, integrating the subtlety of Yin Yang Dust, such a comprehensively gathered sword and saber ultimate form, how can he compare?

He completely can’t compare!

So he was defeated, without suspense.

This shows the current strength of Shen Hex.

With the methods of the transmigrator "Zhuang Zhou’s Dream of the Butterfly," his accumulation in cultivation and professional power already matches the likes of Dao Xuankong, these top celestial pride geniuses, even exceeding them.

This is the power of being a "cheater!"

Though he cheats, Shen Hex doesn’t feel the least bit embarrassed.

It’s ridiculous to feel embarrassed; who in this world doesn’t cheat?

It’s merely a matter of who cheats more, and who cheats less.

He cheats using his own skills, forging ahead step by step, developing professions, and paving his own path; why feel ashamed?

Even if he’s not ashamed, Shen Hex understands the truth that there are always higher heavens and greater men.

Dao Xuankong indeed is a celestial genius.

But the Human Empire is vast, spanning thousands of star realms and billions of stars; such celestial geniuses are not rare, and there are even more terrifying beings than this.

Therefore, Shen Hex must slow down and use the gains from this harvest, along with the accumulation from Taiyuan, to improve strength, otherwise, if he solely relies on the virtual cultivation body and stirs a figure stronger than Dao Xuankong or encounters shameless old monsters, there might be an overturn.

"Next..."

Shen Hex didn’t leave the Life Support Pod but connected to the network on the spot, beginning a vehement purchasing spree.

More than fifty billion funds!

Though Yunlan Star is currently surrounded, with prices skyrocketing under the threat of the Cosmic Evil God, it’s not reached the point of economic collapse.

The Empire’s authorities have opened up inventory, forces are pressured to bring out their assets, and some commercial geniuses have dared to invest, plotting for the future.

Hence, the funds of more than fifty billion in Shen Hex’s hand can still buy a lot of things.

At least achieving a Golden Core is more than enough, and there’s hope for breaking the core to form Nascent Soul; even Nascent Soul Divinity Transformation is slightly ambitious.

Yet, after breaking the core to form Nascent Soul, with enhanced strength, one can plan further.

Nothing much to say, just buy buy buy!

Miracle Pill, Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, various Spirit Beasts, and fodder for breeding.

All are for enhancing skills and advancing cultivation.

Shen Hex now has a clear goal: upgrading!

And his upgrading method is simple and crude because with Zhuang Zhou’s Dream of the Butterfly, the truths to comprehend and boundaries to break through have all been realized in the Dream Butterfly World, so in reality, there are no more bottlenecks; with resource accumulation and digestion, he can naturally, rapidly elevate.

In short, it’s pill popping!

Not just for himself, Spirit Beasts also need to take pills, acting as cultivation pendants.

By this path, the Dao Golden Core is within reach.

Yet merely a Golden Core is far from sufficient.

After buying pills, Shen Hex began purchasing Heavenly Gang Sha.

Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Qi!

It’s essential for tempering the Martial Arts Golden Core, stepping into the Sixth Realm.

Though he now cultivates the Immortal Martial Spirit Three Techniques simultaneously, and is no longer purely a Martial Arts Golden Core, it still requires the aid of Heavenly Gang Sha to break into the Sixth Realm.

Because Yunlan Star doesn’t have a "Celestial Tribulation" mechanism.

Celestial Tribulation is both calamity and opportunity!

Previously in the Taiyuan Realm, Shen Hex utilized Celestial Tribulation Power multiple times, especially during breaking the core to form Nascent Soul, he directly used Celestial Thunder to break the core, cooperating inside and out, creating the Daoist Nascent Soul.

But Yunlan Star doesn’t have the concept of Celestial Tribulation.

Because in the Human Empire, Celestial Tribulation is a resource, even a welfare.

That’s right, welfare!

Those ultimate professionals in the Human Empire who have reached the Immortal Demon Realm have already gained the power to change the laws of heaven and earth, and except for cosmic-level celestial tribulations faced by Immortal Demons, the star realm level and star level celestial tribulations are adjustable "artificially."

Some Cultivation Academies establish the celestial tribulation mechanism within their star realms and star level as welfare for their students.

But Yunlan Star is just a remote colonized star, still in its developmental stage overall, with only high schools and no university academies, and the highest cultivation is Tier Nine, without any means to manipulate the laws of heaven and earth, creating a celestial tribulation mechanism.

Therefore, cultivators on Yunlan Star can only rely on themselves to advance to Tier Six, purchasing various Heavenly Gang Sha Qi to replace Celestial Tribulation Power for tempering themselves.

Shen Hex is the same, having no choice but to heavily invest in Heavenly Gang Sha to prepare for breaking the core to form Nascent Soul.

In such manner, time flies, several years pass again.

Wu Wudi made a name in battle, defeating the Zen Buddhist Disciple Dao Xuankong, then vanished, calming down the fervor on the Divine Martial Battle Net.

The situation on Yunlan Star is tense, the Evil God Sect is frequently active, and the frontline war is on the brink of eruption.

Even the Special Bureau Base is somewhat alarmed.

But it’s merely alarm for now.

The situation hasn’t collapsed, heavy pressure is above, not upon, leaving much room.

In the bedroom, Shen Hex sits suspended, internally the dragon and tiger converge, Yin Yang and Five Elements amalgamate, absorbing the Primordial Spirit Qi entirely.

Unknowingly, the Three Splendors Gather at the Top, Five Qi to Origin, descending into the Dantian, forming within the Qi Sea, radiant and comparable to the sun.

Dao Golden Core—completed!

Shen Hex opened his eyes, his body descending, feeling the power of the Golden Core, with a smile on his face.

Over several years, with resource accumulation, ultimately elevating Immortal Cultivation intertwined with Martial Dao Spirit, achieving the Dao Golden Core.

Though Dao Golden Core is Tier Five, its foundation is exceedingly robust, rivaling Tier Six, and if fighting for his life, fully utilizing the saber and sword ultimate form, he could even confront Tier Seven cultivators.

In a chaotic situation, such cultivation certainly gives Shen Hex a sense of security.

But it’s still not enough, far from enough!

The highest combat strength on Yunlan Star is Tier Nine.

Even this Tier Nine is the obvious level; there might be hidden Tier Ten power yet to be activated.

Reality isn’t like the Dream Butterfly World, Shen Hex doesn’t plan nor has the capital to break Yunlan’s predicament with personal power, but to survive in this chaos, having cultivation of Tier Six or Seven is necessary, ideally also refining the Demon Saber Dao Sword with the Five Demon-locking Swords.

Only then will he have some confidence facing this increasingly perilous situation.

"In addition..."

Shen Hex lowered his gaze, looking at the profession panel.

Though he focused on arduous cultivation these years, he didn’t completely disregard external matters; tasks from the Special Bureau needed execution, and profession enhancement required attention.

In such manner, as years passed, several professions underwent varying degrees of enhancement; especially the Saint Walker relying on his prowess against the Evil God Sect reached Tier Three Level Ten.

Tier Three Level Ten is complete!

Slaying Karma and Saintly Walk Without Regret; this profession’s characteristic lies in the support of Righteous Qi and sensing and suppressing Karmic Force.

It’s a decent profession, possessing a special effect against the Evil God Sect in the real world, with considerable developmental potential, Shen Hex doesn’t intend to abandon it.

But now he faces a bit of dilemma.

The Saint Walker’s level is full, the subsequent path hasn’t been revealed. Should it be direct advancement or... some maneuvering?

If direct advancement occurs, based on the actions and influence during this period, this profession is likely to enhance targeting "Evil Gods," which although decent, feels somewhat lacking to Shen Hex.

Saint Walker as a position was born from his dragon-slaying in the Martial Dynasty, altering the world’s situation; if it develops targeting the Evil Gods, though it’s not inherently flawed, it feels slightly narrow.

Slaying Karma and Saintly Walk Without Regret, are the only targets Evil Gods?

Shen Hex pivoted thoughts, focusing on another profession.

Immortal, Tier Three Level Ten!

Through the years, the cultivation path also reached Tier Three, recovering the "Immortal" professional power.

This owes thanks to Wu Wudi, his actions on the Divine Martial Battle Net align with the traits of hidden cultivation, staying at home, fame spreading across the world, thereby acquiring ample experience, becoming the Longevity Immortal Hermit.

Saint Walker is a Tier Three Profession.

Immortal is also a Tier Three Profession.

So... is there potential for fusion advancement?
