Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy

Ouyang Qian, who had remained silent, now showed a thoughtful expression on her face. She softly asked, "Could it be that there is a specific summoning spell?"

The Wind Grasshopper shook his head and smiled, "There is no need for a specific summoning spell, you only need to summon sincerely."

Seeing the puzzled look on their faces, the Wind Grasshopper decided not to hold back any longer and began to explain in detail.

"I believe the Eastern Realm today must have many temples. Some of them may have been newly built over the millennia, while others are ancient temples passed down from ancient times. In those ancient temples, most of the deities worshipped are true immortals. In ancient times, they were conferred titles by the Celestial Emperor, possessing divine positions and their own fiefdoms."

He paused for a moment and continued, "These immortals, if they are still alive, would disseminate a trace of their spirit awareness into the world, attached to the altars that worship them. If a mortal has a grand wish or prayer, they only need to hold three sticks of incense, worship devoutly, and silently recite their wishes. These heart's voices will naturally reach the ears of the immortals."

The Wind Grasshopper sighed softly, "However, there are too many mortals in this world, and most immortals are aloof and proud. Even in the ancient times when the Taoist arts flourished, the immortals of the Celestial Court seldom paid attention to worldly affairs. However, perhaps one day they might be in a good mood, and after receiving the grand wish of a mortal, they might burn a talisman to petition the Celestial Emperor, then descend to manifest."

"Since ancient times, there have been recorded instances of divine manifestations. But it is not the true form of the immortals that manifests, but their divine spirit." As he said this, the Wind Grasshopper's gaze swept over Luo Chen and Ouyang Qian.

Luo Chen's heart stirred upon hearing the words "divine spirit." He couldn't help but think of the method to cultivate the three souls within himself—when the earthly, heavenly, and life souls are cultivated to their peak, they will merge and form an infant, giving birth to a divine spirit. At this moment, he had deeper expectations for his future cultivation path.

"So that's how it is…" Ouyang Qian murmured to herself at her side, her gaze flickering, clearly filled with curiosity and longing for everything that the Wind Grasshopper had said. She looked up at the Wind Grasshopper and asked, "Could it be that you are also a true god conferred by the Celestial Emperor? Is there a temple dedicated to you in the Eastern Realm?"

The Wind Grasshopper smiled slightly and nodded, "Yes, during ancient times, I too was conferred by the Celestial Emperor, with my own divine position and fiefdom. Although my true form cannot leave the Demon King's Grotto Heaven, my divine spirit can descend to the Eastern Realm in response to your summons."

He looked at the two of them and continued, "So, when you face that Two-headed Snake, you need only sincerely summon me, and I will descend my divine spirit to aid you by borrowing the altar in the temple."

After listening to the Wind Grasshopper's explanation, Luo Chen and Ouyang Qian exchanged a smile, their doubts instantly vanished. They knew that with the help of the Dragon Monarch's divine spirit, they had more confidence in dealing with the Two-headed Snake. Next, they would wait for the right moment to prepare for the battle with the Two-headed Snake.

Upon hearing this, the Wind Grasshopper's expression became slightly awkward as he chuckled and explained, "Today's world is no longer the world of ancient times. The immortals are nowhere to be found, let alone the old Celestial Court and Celestial Emperor. However, my East Sea Ao Clan has been passed down through generations, the Dragon King's position is also hereditary. In my generation, the Dragon King's seal happens to be inherited by me. As long as you sincerely bow before the altar of the East Sea Dragon King in the Eastern Realm, I can issue a talisman in spirit, journey out of body, and descend to the Eastern Realm."

After hearing this, Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Only now did he suddenly realize that the person in front of him was none other than the legendary immortal existing above all living things. He had actually haggled and demanded magical treasures from an immortal, with no apprehension whatsoever. He began to reflect on when he became so bold.

At this time, Ouyang Qian pondered and asked a critical question, "If this is the case, then what we need is just the Dragon Monarch's altar. However, is there a temple dedicated to the Dragon Monarch in the Eastern Realm?"

The Wind Grasshopper, waving his sleeve as he paced, thought briefly and nodded, then shook his head, "There is, but not in her location."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Qian did not appear too disappointed. After thinking for a moment, she said, "This is fine; we can have artisans carve a statue of the Dragon Monarch upon returning to the Eastern Realm, to be ready for use."

"As long as there is my name and divine position." The Wind Grasshopper nodded in agreement but immediately warned solemnly, "Remember, unless absolutely necessary, do not summon me. First, because manifesting in the Eastern Realm would consume a large amount of soul power; second, if I were to descend, it would surely alert the Snake Demon, alerting the enemy. Therefore, you need to first locate the Snake Demon's whereabouts, and then summon me to call down celestial lightning. At that moment, you seize the opportunity to slay the Snake Demon, ensuring everything is foolproof."
