After discussing the development of dataized cultivation methods with Wang Qi, Feng Luoyi also provided guidance on Wang Qi's cultivation. A practitioner who achieves the Unity of My Method at the Golden Core Stage is unprecedented, if not unsurpassable. This means he has no predecessors to learn from. Only this summit-level Carefree Realm Great Cultivator could offer him some insights from such a high vantage point.

Wang Qi wasn't particularly adept at using the dataized cultivation methods, and wasn't even sure what he could accomplish. He was like the father of the internet who could not fathom how the internet would define the next era. Feng Luoyi's essence was integrated into the Ten Thousand Immortals True Mirror, with his consciousness flowing through the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm for countless years, quite similar to Wang Qi now. Hence, guiding Wang Qi came naturally to him.

With just a few words, Wang Qi felt immensely benefited.

After discussing cultivation techniques, Feng Luoyi and Wang Qi conversed about mathematics. While Wang Qi merely received guidance from Feng Luoyi in cultivation, in mathematics, he could occasionally bring up something that Feng Luoyi found intriguing.

Through his exchanges with Feng Luoyi, Wang Qi also gained a deeper understanding of the trends in the development of Shenzhou's mathematics over the past few years.

Currently, Xi Baiche represents the Li Sect, which has temporarily subdued the Lianzong. However, they did not proceed with the Bourbaki School's program as Wang Qi previously suggested, but continued their pursuit of "completeness."

——This has almost become a belief for the contemporary Li Sect.

Yet, some scattered cultivators are verifying the ideas Wang Qi presented in his speech five or six years ago. These arithmeticians don't belong to the core circle, and their work is scattered and lacks a coherent system, far from being comparable to the Bourbaki School on Earth.

However, Wang Qi felt that these "scattered" works were tremendously significant for him.

After exiting the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm, Chen Youjia came over and asked concernedly, "What exactly did Mr. Feng want from you? Don't tell me it's that kind of thing again..."

"Relax, it's not, just benefits." Mi consoled with an air of confidence. This Sea God Type had Carefree-level permissions in the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm and knew quite a lot. She glanced at Wang Qi, "Your master treats you well."

"In a certain sense, yes." Wang Qi frowned slightly, not showing any sign of relief. He recounted the discussion he had with Feng Luoyi in the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm to Chen Youjia.

Mi said, "You call this bad?"

Chen Youjia also nodded, "It seems like Mr. Feng gives you whatever you ask for."

Wang Qi chuckled, pinching Chen Youjia's nose, "Senior Sister Mi is so innocent; it can be said because she isn't human. Xiao Jiajia, you're not right in this."

With a "snap," Chen Youjia slapped Wang Qi's hand away, "Don't call me Xiao Jiajia—and what's your take on this matter?"

Wang Qi smiled, "Do you still remember what Teacher Feng did in Divine Capital last year?"

Chen Youjia blinked, "Of course, I haven't forgotten."

"Last time when I studied the Heart Demon Curse and interacted with the Banished Immortals, he was aware of it all. He even pushed some of it from behind the scenes. What was the final outcome?" Wang Qi asked.

The joint crisis in Divine Capital was practically a burden for the Modern Immortal Path. The Ancient Method Descendants were decadent, the Banished Immortals were scheming, and the awakened Banished Immortals were eyeing us covetously. At this point, whether taking action against the Ancient Cultivators or addressing the Banished Immortals before they could make a move, any action would violate the order of the Immortal Alliance.

However, once Feng Luoyi, using Wang Qi as a fuse, triggered the chaos in Divine Capital, everything changed dramatically.

In the end, the remnants of the Ancient Cultivators in Divine Capital were exterminated, the rioting Banished Immortals were all experimented on, and the awakened Banished Immortals outside who were pulling the strings also got hit by a Divine Plague Curse, possibly even a few Heavenly Swords.

Moreover, the Immortal Alliance gained the Divine Capital Special Zone, an experimental field to launch a new era.

If Feng Luoyi's actions were simple, Wang Qi wouldn't believe it.

"At least this time I don't believe it," Wang Qi analyzed, "Teacher Feng is a Venerable Master of Freedom, a figure of authority within the Immortal Alliance. If he truly intended to help me perfect my cultivation method, the simplest way would be to directly propose a suggestion for the Immortal Alliance to allocate funds for me. Alternatively, he could use a portion of the spare computational power of the Ten Thousand Immortals True Mirror to personally help me perfect the method. These methods would be easy."

Chen Youjia felt defeated by Wang Qi's shamelessness, "Perhaps it's because Mr. Feng is fair and doesn't engage in those... crooked paths?"

"Hehe, even if we take a step back, and he is really unwilling to make things easier, the best approach would still be to introduce this cultivation method for me within the Wanfa Sect." Wang Qi had no reservations about criticizing his teacher: "He was one of the strongest arithmeticians of his time, with influence far beyond that of ordinary people. As long as he spoke, my cultivation method could become widely known within a year."

"Either way is better than now, relying on a banished immortal to assist me."

Chen Youjia nodded: "It does seem a bit... suspicious?"

Mi was still skeptical: "If you can really help a banished immortal break through the heavenly barrier, resources will come to you easily. This would directly prove that your data-driven cultivation method is incredibly versatile, so effective that even a banished immortal could practice it. Even if it fails, at worst, it might just spur the banished immortal to awaken. However, you can't be blamed for that."

"Moreover, this is just developing a cultivation method, not an actual proof in the way of life." Mi added.

Wang Qi was still somewhat puzzled: "But I can't understand, why a banished immortal?"

Mi offered a constructive suggestion: "Your cultivation method seems to make someone achieve the unity of my method in advance?"

Wang Qi shook his head: "Currently, the only person who has cultivated the dataized cultivation method to achieve the Golden Core is myself. Whether my achievement is due to the cultivation method or sheer luck remains unknown. It might also have something to do with you, Senior Sister. In any case, without more people to experiment with, everything remains uncertain."

"I think, that's the master's goal, right?" Mi said: "If we're lucky, we can have that banished immortal integrate the immortals' remnant soul into their mana, and then research the mysteries of immortals in another form. If we're not so lucky, we'll have merely activated the immortals' remnant soul, gaining an extremely weakened immortal sample. Moreover, it's possible that your cultivation method might allow the master and others to face the immortals' remnant soul directly through the banished immortal's mana, thus finding a way to seal it or eliminate it."

"Indeed." Wang Qi clapped his hands: "So that's how it is. The dataized cultivation method makes mana not just mana, but an extension of consciousness. This also means that people like Teacher Feng can transmit power through others' mana..."

No wonder! No wonder he specially instructed me not to rush into the real experiment but to try it on one or two people first! No wonder he also said, after the trial, remember to submit the report to him so he can help me with the application!

Of course, this is definitely not the deepest layer of Feng Luoyi's intentions; he surely has other plans. However, even if the subsequent schemes do not materialize, just the opportunity to 'face the immortal remnant soul' and the enhancement of Wang Qi's dataized cultivation method would be rewarding enough.

Speaking of experiments, Wang Qi looked at Chen Youjia: "Junior Sister, when is the Core Formation?"

"Give me another month." Chen Youjia furrowed her pretty brow: "The virtual and real two-phase Golden Core requires the Yao Ding Calculating Scripture and one of the Heavenly Position Skills to reach the Core Formation level simultaneously with the Heavenly Evolution Record. My Heavenly Position Skill is enough for Core Formation, but the Heavenly Evolution Record is still lacking."

Wang Qi shook his head: "You don't need the Heavenly Evolution Record to be too profound either. Your main path in the future won't rely on it. For you, the Heavenly Calculation Elixir is just a useful tool."

Chen Youjia nodded. At this moment, Mi interjected: "So, are you still planning to do what the teacher mentioned?"

"I definitely have to do it." Wang Qi said: "No matter what the teacher or the Immortal Alliance is plotting, or what the ultimate gain might be, it's always advantageous for me."

"Then I'll go prepare." Chen Youjia nodded and then walked into her room to begin a new round of seclusion.

"Half a month, huh?" Wang Qi also stood up: "Looks like I need to prepare properly."

During this half month, besides consulting Ai Qinglan and Chen Feng on some key aspects of cultivating the Heavenly Evolution Record, Chen Youjia was primarily in seclusion, accumulating mana for the Heavenly Evolution Record. She already had a cultivation close to Core Formation, and raising the Heavenly Evolution Record's mana wasn't particularly difficult. Moreover, her main foundation had always been the Heavenly Position Skill, with the Heavenly Evolution Record serving a supplementary role. After Ai Qinglan gave her a "Mendel's Pea," Chen Youjia's cultivation in the Heavenly Evolution Record smoothly reached the requirements for Core Formation.

At this point, she could also rely on Wang Qi's method to condense the virtual and real two-phase Golden Core.

On the day of Chen Youjia's Core Formation, Su Junyu and Chen Feng also came to Wang Qi's place. Su Junyu already had a shallow cultivation in the Heavenly Evolution Record and was currently observing Wang Qi's cultivation method. If Chen Youjia demonstrated promising prospects with the dataized cultivation method, he would also join Wang Qi's plan. As for Chen Feng, he was simply there to help. Generally, before and after Core Formation, cultivators at Tianling Ridge were asked to help confirm the state. Chen Feng happened to be free recently, so Wang Qi brought him along to help.

As for the protector... honestly, there isn't much need. This is Langde City, one of the places with the strongest protection by the Immortal Alliance, and the Modern Immortal Path is known for its legal system, so people mostly do things by the rules, with few vendettas. Even if there are any, they're mostly settled by the rules. At least no one will interfere with others' breakthroughs.

"Let's see what the result is this time." Su Junyu looked expectantly at Chen Youjia, who was seated in the center of the courtyard. If this time, Chen Youjia displays great potential like Wang Qi, he too will cultivate Wang Qi's data-driven cultivation method.

Wang Qi, on the other hand, seemed unconcerned about everything: "It definitely won't fail."

Soon, a unique omen belonging to Chen Youjia appeared.
