Chapter 840 - 169: Small-Scale Discussion

Author: My path is not lonely.
updatedAt: 2025-11-01

As time passed, the influence of the chaos from half a month ago gradually diminished.

Under the intentional or unintentional guidance of relevant authorities, all discussions regarding Shenzhou's coastal border, and the mysterious spiritual power eruption at the Xuanxing Temple of the Wanfa Sect, gradually settled down. Now, there are countless true and false rumors circulating. However, those who have not been in contact with the real situation could never imagine that a massive cluster of life forms on the scale of the Sea God Type could appear in this world.

Currently, among these rumors, the most widespread and accepted is that the "Immortal Alliance's large-scale territory defense restriction and the sect's defensive formation became uncontrollable due to the collapse of the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm."

As for Divine Capital, it was originally a forbidden zone designated by the Immortal Alliance, a testing ground for the Divine Tao Technology Revolution. Cultivators were already forbidden from freely entering or exiting. Thus, in the Heart Network mishap, there were not many innocent cultivators affected. As for mortals around who were infected by the Heart Demon Curse, they have all been included in that experiment—I really can't say whether this is a blessing or a curse for those mortals.

Time slowly passes, and the impact of that matter seems to be gradually fading.;

——seemingly.

Because that seemingly massive collapse was actually just the aftermath of the prelude to the events, not worth considering.

The real undercurrents are still brewing.

About twenty days after the event, Su Junyu and Chen Youjia received a strange instruction one after another.

"Due to the breakthrough in the mathematics dao, you need to immediately return to the Wanfa Sect for secret training?" Xiang Qi looked at Su Junyu with utter surprise: "What kind of lousy excuse is this!?"

At this moment, they were inside the airport. This place is fifty miles from Langde City, the largest airport in the entire Western Border. Chen Youjia and Su Junyu planned to take the Spirit Boat directly back home from here. Xiang Qi originally had no business in Langde, and intended to follow Su Junyu to the Wanfa Sect to see for herself. Wang Qi was the only one who came to bid farewell.

Anyway, the instruction indicated that this training could be as quick as one month, or as slow as three months, so no one really took it seriously. Ai Qinglan and Chen Feng only said a symbolic goodbye last night.

"I don't understand either." Su Junyu shrugged: "I really don't think there has been any revolutionary breakthrough in mathematics recently that requires someone to guide and mentor us."

"More than this..." Xiang Qi glanced at Wang Qi, who was standing not far away with his arms crossed: "Speaking of which, Wang Qi, didn't you receive a similar notice? Is the Wanfa Sect not considering you as a True Disciple or what?"

Wang Qi smiled indifferently. This time, it wasn't because of his Banished Immortal status. This training, people from Shenzhou can attend, but he can't.

In fact, it's more appropriate to call this training an "experiment." Its purpose is to select a few cultivators with high talent, capable of understanding the incompleteness theorem, to study Wang Qi's theory, and based on their reactions during the study, summarize rules to provide psychological intervention for high order cultivators.

For low-level cultivators, the life system has not completely merged with the mana system, and mana has not aligned with consciousness, so even if the Dao Heart collapses, it won't risk life.

Since it's research into "what happens when ordinary Wanfa Sect cultivators learn the incompleteness law," what is Wang Qi, the discoverer, doing there? Adding chaos?

Chen Youjia glanced at Wang Qi full of doubt. Others might not know, but she certainly does. Before the major collapse, Feng Luoyi was in conversation with him, then he happened to write a paper claiming to be very groundbreaking, and then this bizarre instruction came through.

Who would believe there's no intrigue inside?

However, Wang Qi didn't mention it at the time, and Chen Youjia wouldn't ask indiscriminately. She is quite wise in this regard, at least able to perceive what is critically important.

Before departing, the girl grabbed Wang Qi's arm, speaking in a stern tone: "I keep saying this. Absolutely, do not, flirt while I'm not here. Got it?"

Wang Qi nodded, indicating that he understood very well.

Su Junyu then patted Wang Qi on the shoulder: "This return is also an opportunity; I will try to promote our cultivation methods among the disciples of the Wanfa Sect."

Wang Qi nodded. Although he will soon no longer need such promotion efforts, the intention from Su Junyu is appreciated by him.

After seeing off Su Junyu and Chen Youjia, Wang Qi returned to his room, waiting patiently.

Waiting for the moment when Feng Luoyi calls him.

After about half a day, he finally received that Spirit Message.

Wang Qi's consciousness flowed along the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm and eventually entered a small illusion, where he re-manifested in human form.

Feng Luoyi was already waiting for him there.

The Sage of the Common People's expression was calm: "Are you ready?"

Wang Qi nodded. Although there was a bit of tension in his demeanor, the excitement was much more prevalent.

Seeing his expression, Feng Luoyi didn't say much more. He extended his hand and created a portal in the space—like opening a hyperlink, if it were a network. Leaving behind a "Follow me," he stepped in first.

On the other side of the portal was a peculiar illusion. Dozens of mats were arranged in a circle. On each seat, a person sat quietly. Except for the seats and the people on them, everything else was devoid of color, whether above or below, all the background was pitch black.

In this dark void, Feng Luoyi led Wang Qi towards two adjacent empty seats.

As Feng Luoyi and Wang Qi entered, everyone focused their gaze on the duo. Wang Qi was surprised to discover that the illusion was unprecedentedly grand. Every cultivator present here was someone he had an impression of, even though he hadn't actually met any of them.

He had only seen their statues.

In the Heavenly Communication Dao Hall.

Each person here was a carefree cultivator, not the ones on the fringes, but rather those who were close to the research frontiers or had once stood at the pinnacle as powerful carefree cultivators!

While Wang Qi was observing the crowd, the crowd was also observing him. All the cultivators' gazes were distinctly divided into three factions. Bai Ze God Monarch, Wave Motion Lord, and other mere informants, the Master of Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, Master Turing, and a few other carefree practitioners of the Li Sect, looked at Wang Qi purely with amazement and admiration. Some even proactively extended their hands to greet Wang Qi.

However, carefree practitioners from the Genting Sect such as Ruoche and Ai Kemeng looked at Wang Qi with some hostility. In their eyes, Wang Qi was Feng Luoyi's disciple, a "member of their own." But they never expected that this "member of their own" would deliver a fatal blow to the Genting Sect! Especially Ai Kemeng. Years ago, he had exchanged letters with Wang Qi and had some impression of him. Some of the things regarding Transfinite Induction were even perfected with his help. Naturally, his research field was closest to mathematical logic, and the Incompleteness Theorem's damage to him was particularly significant. He never expected that one day his own achievements would be used to overthrow his own beliefs.

Lastly, there were a few carefree practitioners from the Genting Sect, like "Four Faces" Madern. Their main research direction was either in sets or not entirely aligned with the ideals of the Master of Calculation. Take "Four Faces" Madern for example. His path to enlightenment was sparked by the third question of Ximen's twenty-three questions—"The volumes of two tetrahedrons with equal bases and equal heights are equal," which belongs to the geometric field. Due to the impeccable completeness of the Sky Drawing Style and Euclidean geometry axioms, the impact he received was minimal. Because of their sect background, they held no favorable view of Wang Qi, yet due to ideological reasons, they couldn't harbor ill feelings either. So, these people simply looked at Wang Qi with interest.

For carefree practitioners, thoughts are equivalent to mana. The faint hostility in the eyes of some carefree practitioners carried substantial lethality. Wang Qi wavered, feeling a bone-chilling, flesh-grinding cold wind pressing against him, crushing and ravaging his consciousness. Feng Luoyi snorted coldly, standing between Wang Qi and the others: "What's this? When did we start discussing Dao using fists and mana?"

Upon Feng Luoyi's reminder, everyone realized they were merely facing a cultivator in the Golden Core Stage.

Wang Qi's paper was truly formidable. The incompleteness result even subconsciously made many carefree practitioners assume that Wang Qi, like them, was also a carefree practitioner.

Amongst the astonished and apprehensive gazes of the crowd, Feng Luoyi led Wang Qi quietly to his seat.

Only then did Wang Qi notice that all the seats were already occupied. Apart from those still unable to adapt to this Incompleteness Theorem, nearly half of the carefree practitioners from the Genting Sect were present. These Genting Sect practitioners occupied most of the seats, leaving only one vacant seat right opposite Feng Luoyi.

Feng Luoyi frowned and said, "Mathematics Lord should have arrived already, why is there no sign of him?"

He Wai'er indicated he didn't know: "Senior Pang has always done things his own way, who knows what he's up to."

"Up to what? Naturally gathering intelligence." Suddenly, a flash of white light appeared, and an old man with graying hair, an expressionless face, and an arrogant gaze appeared in the last empty seat: "I only heard that the brat Xi Baiche is going down. Naturally, I'm pleased about it. But upon returning, oh, that guy is still sitting steadily in his Genting, practicing as the Daoist Master of the Mathematics Sect. Of course, I need to inquire a bit about this."

Mathematics Lord's tone was extremely physical. All the Genting Sect's arithmeticians, regardless of their stance, collectively glared at Mathematics Lord.

"This battle, the Li Sect lost. The reputation of the Genting is destined to wane." Feng Luoyi's face was angry, yet he spoke calmly: "Now what we need to do is to preserve the Master's life, that's all."

Pang Jialai's expression remained unchanged: "So, these new theories are enough to shatter that guy's Dao heart—now that's a bit intriguing."
