Chapter 1082: Helix
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
The Nine Lives Helix—created by Fang Xingjian—imitated this world’s consciousness, heaven-blessed cultivators, and the structure of the Tiangang Disha system.
He separated each of his martial technique into individual portions, forming new clones that were a little similar to many heaven-blessed cultivators.
Each martial technique was a new martial art life form. They existed concurrently and were connected with each other, yet they could also not interfere with each other. The martial arts life forms were like the shadows belonging to a single object but cast in different directions.
This meant that he would usually appear as a martial arts life form while the other martial arts life forms underwent cultivation in a high-dimensional world.
These were just like projected shadows. The sun shone down on the human body, but the created shadows would only ever be able to reveal a portion of the truth. Shadows would never be able to display all the sides of the real body.
It was the same for the Nine Lives Helix. All of Fang Xingjian’s martial art life forms were in fact deposited in the high-dimensional world to cultivate while he would display only a few martial arts life forms in the material world. Those were just his projections.
The projections were very similar to him, but in the end, they were not the complete version of himself.
Through this, he could just cast another one after each martial art projection was killed.
The four martial techniques—the Celestial Eradication Sword Technique, Heart Sword Path, Royal Heavenly Great Art, and high-dimensional sword arts—each took the form of a projection.
It was only by wiping out all four projections that it would be possible to really stop the interference Fang Xingjian had placed in the material world. This would continue until Fang Xingjian managed to accumulate enough powers to create new projections.
The existence of the high-dimensional could be like many spiral drill bits. They would exist by piercing into every world’s higher dimensions, as well as connecting the many consciousness through Dragon Qis.
Therefore, once he successfully cultivated the Nine Lives Helix, Fang Xingjian’s actual body could exist in the high-dimensional world through the connection of the Dragon Qis to tap into the group consciousness. Ordinary three-dimensional existences would not be able to come into contact with him.
Once his projections were wiped out, he would temporarily lose the ability to interfere with the material world. Once the connection of the Dragon Qis were cut off, he would be expelled out from the high-dimensional world.
The Nine Lives Helix itself was also an extremely complicated martial technique that included many systems and ideas, including the world, space-time, consciousness, Dragon Qi, dimensions, and lives.
From the connection between martial art projections, high-dimensional Sword Realm, Dragon Qi, and group consciousness to the in-depth understanding of the world’s consciousness and world’s foundational origin… The Nine Lives Helix was extremely deep and profound. It was a martial technique that one would not be able to cultivate successfully even after spending several hundred or thousand of years if they did not have a heaven-defying aptitude.
However, once Fang Xingjian managed to cultivate the Nine Lives Helix, he could be said to possess a vitality that was almost like an immortal’s. As long as the other party did not possess the ability to interfere with the high-dimensional worlds, they would not be able to attack his actual body or cut off his connection with the world and with the group consciousness. On Fang Xingjian’s end, he would be able to endlessly absorb all sorts of energies and Dragon Qis from the world to recover and cultivate, creating projections time and time again to interfere with the material world that was at a lower dimension.
This state was as if he had become a part of the world’s circulation system.
It was also the reason why he had created the Nine Lives Helix. Not only was it to increase his high-dimensional battle prowess and get closer to the world’s origin which was the source of all life consciousness but it was also to fend off the curse on his body that left him only with a lifespan of five years.
The helix that Fang Xingjian turned into became intermittently visible, as if existing between the illusionary and true realities. As the spiral’s spin became increasingly faster and wider, the tip seemed to suddenly charged into a place that was hard to describe.
It was the source of countless consciousness, where all lives in the world were gathered.
With the connection to a hint of Dragon Qi, Fang Xingjian entered the group consciousness of this world.
The group consciousness was the place where all lives that possessed consciousness gathered. This place did not exist within a certain place in the material world but at a higher-dimensional point in the world instead.
The waves emitted by countless consciousness gathered together. They were like the entire planet’s magnetic field, jointly producing all sorts of influence into the world. The entire world was like an extremely small dot to them, and right now, Fang Xingjian relied on the Royal Heavenly Great Art’s Dragon Qi to enter the group consciousness.
So, he entered this world, which was also in fact the core of the Tiangang Disha system.
At this moment, a connection between the high-dimensional Sword Realm and group consciousness was forged, and the first step to the Nine Lives Helix was achieved.
…
Ten days later, Fang Xingjian sat cross-legged in the secret room that was located in the greatest depth of the arsenal. There were four streams of sword light circling and flashing about occasionally.
Right now, the projection that he cast in the material world was the Celestial Eradication Sword Technique’s martial art projection. The other projections were continuing their cultivation in the high-dimensional Sword Realm, silently engulfing all sorts of energies and Dragon Qi from this world.
‘The Nine Lives Helix has become rooted in this world’s group consciousness. As long as the Dragon Qi connection isn’t cut off, I’ll be able to create projections in this world. Each of their moves will be able to enjoy the reinforcements from the group consciousness… It’ll be like a different kind of heaven-blessed cultivator.’
Through the research he had conducted on this world using the Royal Heavenly Great Art and high-dimensional sword arts, Fang Xingjian had finally made use of the Nine Lives Helix to enter deep into this world’s group consciousness.
However, this world was different from the ordinary natural world after all. Other than the group consciousness, it still possessed its own consciousness—the giant’s consciousness.
This world’s group consciousness had also been modified by the giant and formed the Tiangang Disha system.
‘Is this sensation what they mean by reinforced by heaven’s will?’ Fang Xingjian slowly grasped the sensation he was feeling. A feeling like he was controlling the hearts of everyone in the world, as well as its future trends, gushed into his heart.
‘Amongst the lives with consciousness in this world, humans are still the focus. Grasping the hearts of the people is done through deeply rooting the Nine Lives Helix into this world’s group consciousness, which is also at the high-dimensional world.’
Other than the three known dimensions, there were also many other dimensions in the world which humans found hard to detect. Some of them involved time while others involved space, and there were also those that humans could not understand at all. The expansion of the universe was also due to the constant expansion of the higher dimensions.
With the increased number of lives, the group consciousness—a unique higher dimension—was also formed.
Right now, Fang Xingjian was using the Nine Lives Helix to dart into the depths of the group consciousness. Countless lives’ consciousness flashed past before his eyes.
At this moment, Fang Xingjian had a strong feeling that the ability to control the world, grasp people’s hearts, and guide the future was a lot deeper and more unfathomable than the various destructive abilities which the martial art projections in the material world possessed.
Clenching his fingers and sensing the powers contained within his projections, Fang Xingjian estimated that the powers of this Celestial Eradication Sword Technique martial art projection still had a martial will of about 8,500 points. There was not any difference from the past.
This was also due to the fact that the Nine Lives Helix was not a technique that directly increased the cultivator’s powers. Instead, it was a method to change the basic essence of his life.
