Under Su Junyu's guiding, Wang Qi very fast already make his imprint on a few beginner magic artifacts.
Wang Qi a bit cannot tahan already, "Su bro, if nothing happen then can bring me go 'Transmission Palace' already or not?"
The Immortal Institute's Transmission Palace is for new disciple go learn cultivation method one. Even the top five sects put their first-level heart-method there—this include also the "Tianyan Diagram", "Elephant Phase Wave Art", "Heaven Entropy Formula", all this kind can straight touch the 'Carefree Path' kind of super level cultivation.
But only first level lah.
If his guess never salah, then this kind of cultivation is same like this world their top scientific achievement. Contain all those law cultivator people their discovery about the world one. Even if only level one, also enough for help him find the different between this world and Earth, also can help him build future path.
Su Junyu said, "Why you so rush one? Still got one more step."
Then he go take out one bamboo tube from storeroom. "Arm stretch come out."
Wang Qi blur-blur, but still pull up sleeve, put his right arm in front of Su Junyu. The scene look like back in Earth when nurse wanna jab the naughty kid with vaccine like that.
Su Junyu very fast smash the bamboo tube. Inside got one needle, around five inch long, material dunno what. Before Wang Qi can even react, Su Junyu already jab it into his arm.
"Hisss!" Wang Qi pain until face cramp already—this more like vaccine leh!
Zhenchanzi suddenly shout warning: "The needle got poison!"
Got poison?
Wang Qi feel one kind of weird feeling from his arm spread go whole body. Got tingling, itchy, warm, numbing, everything mix together. He quickly ask, "Su bro, can explain a bit or not?"
"Thousand Plague Ten-Thousand Poison Needle. Thousand kind of curse, ten-thousand kind poison, all combine into one needle."
Zhenchanzi confused: "Impossible. This needle no that poison meh."
Su Junyu laugh: "All the curse and poison dosage already calculated. They all cancel each other out, won't kill people one. After few days, the power will be combined by your meridian, and as your cultivation go higher, it also stronger. This power won't give you mana or magic skill, but got one good thing—99% of old-style plague spell cannot affect you, 70% bug poison also useless, 50% kind of... umm... you-know-what poison also no effect."
Wang Qi shake head, look his own arm: "No. What I mean is… please explain, why my arm now bleeding non-stop?"
Su Junyu a bit embarrassed scratch his head: "My hand a bit slippery, poke until main blood vessel already."
"Isn't it supposed to go into blood vessel meh…"
"Actually poke skin enough already lah."
Wang Qi mouth twitching, try hard to don't scold: "My right hand now cannot move. Can help me bandage or not?"
Su Junyu pull out the needle, laugh awkwardly: "This kind of needle not cheap one leh, really. Only main base and super big branches' top genius get to use for free. Other disciple only get the second-grade 'Ten Plague Hundred Poison Needle' after join sect properly. That one only can protect from most common poison and low-tier curses."
Even vaccine also got develop already. Don't know in this world their sickness and immune system follow what kind of principle.
Wang Qi brain start drift again, then he ask: "This new-style cultivation also got poison and plague technique right?"
Su Junyu shiver a bit: "Got, of course. 'Plague God Forest' is one branch under Tianling Ridge. Nobody see the top expert from there fight before. People say if their magic go out of control, whole human race maybe game over. Poison part got studied in 'Spirit Beast Mountain' and 'Ten Thousand Flower Valley' also. And also, 'Burning Gold Valley' got some skill in poison. Their famous skill 'Heaven Sequence Sword Disc' got one transformation is super toxic. But their poison not like Tianling Ridge style so weird, still also very deadly. Cannot develop resistance, no cure also, must use mana to fight poison slowly. You not planning go this route right?"
Wang Qi shake head: "Just curious only. I only want to know how strong my poison resistance now."
My focus is physics and math okay? I just want to know scientifically how high is my anti-poison stat only.
Su Junyu said: "That needle's resistance got target one. 'Plague God Forest' every year come out 50+ new plague. You better don't try your luck next time, don't use your body to test them."
Wang Qi nod. Just then, that poison effect really start to kick in. He feel dizzy, stomach also feel wanna vomit. He ask weakly: "This kind of feeling will last how long?"
"Two or three days like that lor."
Wang Qi whole face black: "Like this how to meditate properly? That means I need wait two days only can go learn cultivation?"
Su Junyu face suddenly serious. He look Wang Qi in the eyes: "Bro, one thing must tell you seriously. This kind of 'must rush every second to cultivate' old-style mindset you better throw away."
"Huh? Eh, no lah, you misunderstood—"
Su Junyu press Wang Qi shoulder, stop him talk: "New-style cultivation no need resource. Mana come from breathing with the world. If you understand how nature works, then can non-stop draw power from void. Hundred years of cultivation data help remove almost all the bottlenecks before Gold Core stage. That mean, before Gold Core, no bottleneck!"
Wang Qi still okay, but Zhenchanzi inside already shocked until cannot think. Even those top old-style sects' true heir, also must go through big hardship only can reach Core Formation stage!
"But, because cultivation speed too fast, sometimes the person's knowledge or mindset cannot control the power. If knowledge not enough, then at most cannot go Nascent Soul. But if heart not stable, then maybe go crazy, become evil path! That's why many Foundation, Qi Condensation, even early Core cultivator purposely slow down, go outside experience life, or stay in cave thinking about Dao."
So this one is like scientific cultivation method, must got study, rest, balance everything? But I just wanna study their theory only, I not even want to really cultivate now lah! Wang Qi almost want to laugh cry.
"Anyway, I bring you go dorm first." Su Junyu said, "If you feel better then you can go read the textbook. New-style cultivation's root is in the study of the Dao. The knowledge will help you understand more and cultivate better."
Then Su Junyu look around, lower his voice: "Secret tell you lah, the final entrance test—cultivation progress got marks, but not the highest. Knowledge and math question more important."
In a quiet chamber of the Immortal Institute, Sword Whistle Sky-Dominating Deng Jiaxuan changed to one blue robe, back also got one long sword again.
He cough two time, talk to Chen Jingyun: "The matter with Immortal Alliance already arranged finish. Now left the academy small issue. If you like teach junior, then can stay here help. If not, then stay mountain top also okay."
Chen Jingyun nod.
"Just follow rule handle academy thing. Ah, but this year need pay attention to one guy called Wang Qi. He got one remnant soul of ancient Nascent Soul stage cultivator."
Chen Jingyun nod: "Ziye die for protect him. I remember."
Deng Jiaxuan frown: "You won't carry emotion for this right?"
Chen Jingyun shake head: "I was there. That Zhenchanzi, late Nascent Soul of Luofu Xuanqing Palace. Like report say. Even if he fully recover power, still cannot survive 100 move under my sword."
At the dorm, Wang Qi lie in bed, whole body wet sweat.
Xin Yue Immortal Institute's dormitory all single room. Because he just take the Thousand Poison Needle, Wang Qi feel not well, never go out.
The institute not same like normal branch's public class. Public class just normal cultivator give lecture, student self-study with textbook. Institute is full-time class, not just half year, but more than one year. And the big family's children normally come around March-April. Now not much student, so no need socialise also better.
Because feel headache and nausea, Wang Qi no energy to meditate. Textbook? Just basic high school science to first-year university science. Which one he don't know?
So now, Wang Qi doing other thing. He use the history book, take out all the famous cultivator name from modern cultivation era, then make a timeline, compare with Earth's scientific history. More and more name look like parody of famous scientist from Earth, make him feel like maybe two world got connection.
"Really is like that, almost all famous scientist from Earth also got one 'copy' here," Wang Qi bite pen tip, thinking a bit naughty. "Say everyone transmigrated cannot lah… Let's call this phenomenon… 'Alternate World Same Body Counterpart'!"
