The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 411 Heavenly Punishment Blood Curse

The four clowns are indeed out of touch with the times; they can no longer decipher some of the more profound and complex information changes.

For example, Wang Wu, with his level 18 spiritual essence, undoubtedly sensed a much larger amount of information at this moment.

Of course, that doesn't mean they're useless. They are still very useful in collecting massive amounts of data that require live streaming throughout the process.

"It is a new critical point, and also a kind of constraint that a seventh-level Earth Immortal needs to face. Once it is broken, unimaginable benefits will be obtained."

Wang Wu spoke calmly, beginning his lecture to the four clowns.

"How is that possible? You were only at the third level of Earth Immortal not long ago, and you're only at the fourth level at most now. How could you have advanced so quickly!"

The four clowns were shocked.

"It's not that I advanced quickly, but that I discovered the critical point ahead of time. I am currently still at the fourth level of Earth Immortal, but this time Snake Nineteen is very likely to break through to the eighth level of Earth Immortal, break through this critical point, and then we will see the specific effects."

Wang Wu patiently explained that he had gone to great lengths to improve the four clowns' cognitive abilities.

"So you mean that with your strength at the fourth level of Earth Immortal, you're about to break through the second critical point?"

The four clowns finally got it.

Wang Wu really wanted to repeat the phrase "This child is teachable," but in the end he didn't get that arrogant.

The Four Clowns still deserve respect.

"Yes, there are nine stages of Earth Immortal, and there are three critical points that need to be broken. Generally, it follows the pattern of three, six, and nine, but in reality, there are also cases of four, eight, and nine. As for me now, I am in a special case. I need to break through this critical point when I am at the fourth stage of Earth Immortal."

Wang Wu smiled slightly. Speaking of which, he still had to thank Bai Yu for his assistance in the assassination. The Frost Heart he gave him was really a great help.

This not only directly triggered a world war of elixirs, but also enhanced his Earth Heart.

Now, everything is ready, except for the final push.

Next, Wang Wu took out 40 million points of spiritual energy and upgraded the Heart of the Earth to level 12, which was the limit he had broken through last time.

The level 12 Earth Heart, as a bridge between innate and acquired energy, has a stronger conversion ability. For example, the maximum conversion limit of Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy and Frost Spiritual Energy can even soar to 30,000 points per second.

But that's not the limit, because Wang Wu can do one more thing.

That's 65% of his bloodline evolution level, with 5% remaining unused.

Now he wants to add this 5% unused share to the Heart of the Earth.

In a flash, Wang Wu's innate five elements spiritual array stopped operating on its own. The five demon cores seemed to sense something as well, and their internal breathing techniques ceased, like the calm before a storm.

But a few seconds later, like a volcanic eruption or a giant wave crashing into the sky, the five demon cores under the innate system all boiled up at this moment. But it was not a rebellion. Instead, it concentrated all its power, like wringing out clothes, to extract the most essential and highest-level power and send it to the heart of the earth.

At that moment, Wang Wu felt a sudden jolt in his mind, as if a genetic lock that had imprisoned him for a long time had been unlocked, as if a treasure that had been sealed away for many years had been opened.

He saw many, many illusions that he could not understand at all. He also saw an ancient giant bear, millions of meters tall, leisurely strolling between heaven and earth. Then it turned around and made eye contact with Wang Wu for a moment.

At that moment, Wang Wu suddenly realized that he must have met the true ancestor of the ancient giant bear clan, who seemed to be some kind of bear immortal.

But perhaps they didn't actually see it; they simply unlocked their bloodline genes.

But in the next second, the terrifying ancient giant bear suddenly roared at him, extremely ferocious and furious. Then, its roar transformed into a blood curse that flew towards him. Wang Wu had no way to dodge it, because this was a blood curse that was originally buried in his bloodline.

In that instant, he understood everything.

It's very simple. He wasn't recognized, he wasn't worthy, he wasn't qualified to unlock the ancient bear's bloodline gene lock. This was a blood curse, a method used by the Mangshan Ancient Bear clan to exile its members.

It's original sin!
That's right, it's original sin! That's why he was thrown into the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower.

Even at this moment, Wang Wu seemed to hear a voice sneering.

'You think you've escaped? You think you can break free? The sins committed by your ancestors will have consequences for their descendants. You can escape a physical prison, but how can you escape this prison of divine punishment for your bloodline!'

"Imperial Decree: Heavenly Punishment Blood Curse!"

"boom!"

Wang Wu felt as if he had been hit head-on by a mushroom egg, and in an instant, he felt as if his soul was about to be obliterated, and then he knew nothing more.

When he woke up again, he was greeted by the calls of the four clowns.

At that moment, he felt as if his brain had been pierced ninety-nine times with a red-hot iron.

Of the four strands of divine thought, three were directly blasted away by him.

But none of that was the most important thing. Wang Wu quickly took out the Hidden Yuan Jade Talisman and saw that there were indeed two more lines of information on it.

"Bai Yu, the head of the Longshou City branch, accidentally learned that Wang Zhige, the second head, was a descendant of the Mangshan Ancient Bear clan who had been separated from his family. Feeling sorry for his pitiful background, he personally went to Mangshan to verify this matter and invited a high priest of the Mangshan Ancient Bear clan."

"The High Priest of the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan expressed his gratitude and held a ceremony for the Second Chief Secretary, Wang Zhige, to recognize his ancestry. He also left behind three specially made bloodline legitimacy talismans that only apply to the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan. The above actions have been reported to the Hidden Origin Society headquarters. The Emperor said, 'Good.'"

-

"Damn it! I'll curse your ancestors!"

Wang Wu had to admit that he was a little vulnerable.

These two ambushes were incredibly sophisticated, and they were both precise strikes that hit vital points right away. Moreover, they were specifically launched during the coldest and most frigid periods of the year, leaving Old Man Gray with no way to come to his aid.

No wonder Senior Sister Qin made a special trip here; she probably anticipated this situation.

"Hey little bear, are you alright? Answer me!"

A message popped up: Something's not right with the four clowns.

"I'm fine, how about you?" "We're alright, but all the false primordial spirits of your Xiong family have been destroyed. It seems you've triggered the Heavenly Punishment Blood Curse! Please accept our condolences."

Wang Wu's heart sank. No wonder!
That's it. From Xiong Pi down, the Xiong family has truly been wiped out.

I originally thought I'd find a kind uncle to cross the mountain, but it seems he's probably been turned into a bearskin cloak by someone else.

Wang Wu remained silent for a long time before checking his own condition. Fortunately, apart from losing three strands of divine sense, he had not suffered any major setbacks.

Only on his Heart of the Earth, after examining it with level 18 spiritual energy, were three blood-red divine talismans affixed.

For the time being, this thing will not interfere with him or even affect his normal performance or combat.

However, this effectively locked down his potential, bringing his bloodline evolution to an abrupt halt.

He had previously thought that the Heart of the Earth could extend into a new bloodline supernatural power, and that he had broken through the second threshold of the Earth Immortal realm. Now it seems that it's all over.

His strength will reach its peak in the future, that is, the ninth level of Earth Immortal, and he will not be able to break through again.

Unless he seeks help from his cheap master, there might be a way.

Fortunately, he has always paid great attention to cultivating both his innate and acquired talents.

Even though his innate bloodline path is now blocked, his acquired cultivation system has already grown.

Moreover, who says it's impossible to withstand this divine blood curse?
Upon realizing this, Wang Wu immediately took out the Hidden Yuan Jade Talisman and contacted Bai Yu, stating that he was very grateful for Bai Yu's care, but that he was currently unwell and needed to take a three-year leave of absence.

There was nothing we could do; we couldn't beat them even if we fought them. They were still using the guise of doing what was best for us, and everything they did was reported to the Hidden Origin Society headquarters, so there was nothing wrong with the procedures.

There was no other way but to kill him by force.

Even his cheap master's second task for him was to go into seclusion for a hundred years.

It sounded simple at first, but now it seems that the old guy actually knew it all.

We can't win in a fight, but if we back down, Bai Yu can just come and kill us directly.

From a strategic perspective, it's a win-win situation to use one of his newly accepted disciples to restrain a significant force in Frost Lord's camp.

As expected, Bai Yu replied to the message instantly.

"During the Major and Minor Cold solar terms, it is a very serious matter for the Deputy Chief to be absent from his important post without a valid reason. However, I am a kind person and have granted his request. But according to the rules of the Hidden Origin Society, you can retain your position as a Ninth-Rank Elder, but you must relinquish the position of Deputy Chief. Do you have any objections?"

"Of course it's no problem."

Wang Wu didn't even bother to resist anymore.

Then, a short while later, a motion message appeared.

"Motion: Due to the application for a three-year leave of absence by the former Deputy Chief Clerk Wang Zhige, he shall be relieved of his post as Deputy Chief Clerk, and at the same time, Lin Zhi, a First-Rank Steward, shall be promoted to the position of Temporary Deputy Chief Clerk."

Wang Wu directly selected "agree".

Regardless, he needed to recover his physical condition first, as he couldn't guarantee that Bai Yu wouldn't launch a third attack.

Next, he went to the Qiankun Tower to summon back the wisp of divine soul that had stayed there to accompany General Snow Wolf. Then he activated the Five Elements Spiritual Arrays, both innate and acquired, and focused solely on cultivation, ignoring everything else.

The main purpose of this cultivation is actually to improve one's acquired abilities in order to make up for the deficit caused by expanding the territory.

However, given the previous World War on Elixir, the results were still very good.

The traitor Bing Lingdan, who once became an instigator of a world war, worked very hard, remaining silent no matter how much the transfer payments were made.

The most important point is that, due to the invasion of the Cangming cold air, everyone is more or less related by blood.

After all, we were all in the same trench.

Seek common ground while reserving differences, and pursue common development.

Once Wang Wu got going, the difficulty level dropped by about one level.

Of course, the necessary consumption will not be reduced in the slightest.

In the blink of an eye, eleven months have passed.

After consuming 30 million points of spiritual energy, the Earth Spirit Pill successfully advanced to the fifth grade.

This significantly reduced the difference in quality between the five elixirs.

The Ice and Fire Elixir is currently grade four, while the Wood, Metal, and Earth Elixirs are all grade five.

Once all five spirit pills break through to the third grade, they will be able to catch up with the innate cultivation system.

"However, it's easier said than done. If I continue to cultivate, the Second Spirit Pill World War will inevitably break out."

Wang Wu frowned; the five spirit pills didn't seem like five demon pills.

The latter is based on bloodline and consists of five twin brothers controlled by the Heart of the Earth. They are quintuplets, like five cities, complementing each other, sharing blood and energy, and are quite united. As long as the bloodline evolution level does not have a problem, there will never be a problem.

But those five spirit pills are different. They represent the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Since they are acquired, no one is in charge. Everyone wants to be the boss and everyone wants to defeat others.

Wang Wu used to be able to maintain the advantage of his innate bloodline system and grow stronger. He was the eldest brother, using his innate bloodline to suppress his acquired bloodline, and then using his acquired bloodline followers as support. This is how he managed to get to where he is today, albeit with many stumbles along the way.

But that won't work now. Without a real leader, the Five Elements Pill of the Day After Tomorrow will rebel at any moment unless it maintains its current state.

"Ice Spirit Pill, please do me a favor and be the silly big brother one more time."

Wang Wu could only sigh and say, "I'm sorry to have wronged you!"
