The Supreme Being of the World, Starting from the Heaven-shattering Fuxi
Chapter 395 The Cause of Calamity and Its Demise: A Shared Perspective and a Convergence
Chapter 395 The Cause of Calamity and Its Demise: A Shared Perspective and a Convergence
Following Master Lianshan and Saintess Jiayin, the cultivators who arrived before the Nine Heavens Demoness and Immortal Xinru initially only saw a bloody shadow.
Then, the blood-red figure arrived on the island.
"The Blood God Elder..."
The cultivators looked at the Blood God Elder, who was clearly the strongest cultivator in the demonic path of the world, and couldn't help but show their astonishment.
Unexpectedly, the Blood God Elder would make such a decision.
This old demon's mastery of the Blood Nerve Technique is unparalleled; even righteous cultivators nearing ascension dare not provoke him. He is truly a formidable foe among the demonic sects.
However, I heard that he had been helping his daughter, Princess Red Flower, escape from her tribulation, so why did he give up on doing this?
No one knew that after obtaining the Blood God Elder's "Blood Scripture," Luo Tianxian had already agreed to help his daughter escape her tribulation.
As for the love-hate entanglement between Deng Yin and his daughter, that will be resolved by the Long-Browed Immortal and the Shen sisters.
He has worked hard for his daughter for many years, and it's time for him to do something for his own future.
The Demonic Sect, or the Demonic Cult, is not actually a heretical sect; they have their own lineage passed down from their predecessors.
In this world, from ancient times to the present, the legacy of the Demonic Sect has never been bad. In the great battles between Buddhism and Taoism in the human world, it has not been at a disadvantage.
It is said that beyond the Spirit Void Heaven and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, there is the Heaven of Other Transformation, but the demonic cultivators of this world have never sensed it, nor have any of them been able to ascend to it.
All the demonic cultivators, whether they did evil or not, seemed to ultimately provide external skills to the righteous cultivators.
As the number one figure in the Demonic Sect, the Blood God Elder possessed great ambition and wanted to find a way forward for the younger generation of cultivators in the Demonic Sect.
Therefore, unlike the old man Sibi, he did not think about entering the Buddhist order and attaining enlightenment.
Following the Blood God Elder, the Nine Heavens Demoness Chen Ziqin and the Fairy Xin Ruyu also arrived at that small island.
After them, no sixth person was ever willing to step in.
Those with profound cultivation have their own path to immortality and Buddhahood to follow; there is no need to seek the status of those from other paths.
Those with low cultivation levels would find it extremely painful to meditate inside the rising flames; who would want to suffer like that?
Feng Xi nodded slightly to Luo Tianxian outside, then activated his divine power, using the small island they were standing on as the array's core, and began to set up a grand array to temporarily suppress this calamity, giving him a chance to catch his breath without having to constantly suppress it with his magic power.
The five cultivators who entered also stepped in to help when they saw Feng Xi's actions, adding their own magical power to the island to suppress the tectonic tremors that were about to tear everything apart from the seabed.
"It can only be suppressed; there seems to be no way to resolve it."
After they finished doing this, the island they were on was enveloped by ocean currents and fiery infernos, and endless waves of heat washed over them.
These cultivators didn't care how harsh the environment was; they were only worried about the earth's crust shaking beneath them. As soon as they left, the great formation would be broken, and the earthquake would sweep across the entire continent once again.
Feng Xi said, "It's not that there's no way. If a cultivator can use the great power of ascension to absorb the energy of creation and integrate it into the earth's crust, this disaster can be gradually eliminated."
He had already calculated that this calamity arose because he wanted to establish a place of refuge for non-Buddhist practitioners, and it could also be resolved when non-Buddhist practitioners ascended to the place he had established.
If he truly opens up a place of refuge, every non-Buddhist cultivator who ascends can obtain the Qi of Creation from the Upper Realm to gradually resolve the changes in the earth's crust.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, once seven non-Buddhist cultivators successfully ascend to immortality, this calamity will be completely eliminated.
However, including Feng Xi himself, there are only six people on the island. In other words, even if they all succeed in attaining enlightenment through other paths in the future, they will still need to convert one person in the world to verify the enlightenment they have attained.
This is both enlightenment and transmission, proving that this path is indeed feasible.
And the last person will be the patriarch who spreads the teachings after they have opened up a new path.
His future achievements may be comparable to those of the Long-Browed Immortal in the Spirit Realm.
"It really is the workings of fate, one thing leading to another," Feng Xi sighed. "I wonder which future generation will be able to obtain this opportunity."
Feng Xi's words left the five cultivators beside him looking at each other, unsure of what to say.
Judging from his words, this "Wind God" seemed certain that he would succeed.
However, none of the five cultivators who had just entered the sect had this confidence.
The idea of attaining enlightenment through unorthodox methods was proposed by Qi practitioners as early as the Warring States period, when the Hundred Schools of Thought were contending for power.
Even their line of thinking was aligned with that of the philosophers of the Warring States period.
For example, Master Lianshan wanted to introduce the Mohist teachings into cultivation and make them the doctrines and rules of non-Buddhist practitioners; while Saintess Jiayin had long incorporated the Five Elements theory of Yin and Yang into her Taoist practices.
Despite being a member of the Demonic Sect, the Blood God Elder possessed a unique understanding of the famous saying "A white horse is not a horse," and he evolved the Blood Scripture to a sublime level, earning him the title "Blood God is not a god."
The female immortal Xin Ruyu, whose name comes from "a gentleman is like jade," actually has a deep understanding of the noble spirit of Confucianism.
Chen Ziqin, the Nine Heavens Demoness, is known as a witch and is also skilled in dragon-slaying techniques. She often kills dragons in the North Sea to pass the time.
She once divined the secrets of heaven and knew that hundreds of years later, true dragons of human destiny would emerge one after another in the north.
This female immortal even invited Xin Ruyu and the three Shen sisters to slay several human dragons of destiny in order to prove her own merits.
In the original timeline, the Nine Heavens Demoness Chen Ziqin successively slew the dragons of destiny from the Liao, Song, Jin, and Xia dynasties. However, when she was slaying the dragon of destiny from the Song dynasty, many Taoist cultivators used the principle of "supreme goodness is like water" from Lin'an to ignite the dying dragon, preventing her from completing the task.
In the end, when she went north to slay the last true dragon, the dragon perished, and she herself was also killed in the process.
After Chen Ziqin was reincarnated after suffering a calamity, she was first taken in as a disciple by the Long-Browed Immortal, and later broke away from the sect to become a disciple of the Buddhist nun Xinru Shenni, Xinru Yu, and was known as the Dragon-Slaying Master.
Like the Holy Maiden Jiayin, the two female immortals sought proof through unorthodox methods but to no avail. Before the end of the Dharma, they had no choice but to ascend to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
They are arguably the most qualified to speak on the difficulties of attaining enlightenment through unorthodox methods.
He expressed his strong agreement with the four major challenges raised by Feng Xi.
Among them, the most difficult thing is that even if one cultivates to a certain level, there is no "place to return to".
They all knew that this mysterious "Wind God" intended to create a place of refuge for all cultivators other than immortals and Buddhas.
This kind of place isn't something you can just create whenever you want.
On the one hand, one needs to have a sufficiently strong level of cultivation, at least above the Golden Immortals and Buddhas in the mortal realm; otherwise, it would be impossible to create such a world.
On the other hand, the world that is created must be able to accommodate all non-Buddhist cultivators without conflict.
Buddhism has its own rules and regulations, and Taoism has its own set of laws. These things not only constrain practitioners but also guide them to follow the same path.
When a cultivator naturally accepts these precepts and heavenly rules, and their cultivation foundation is of the same origin as the upper realm, then they can naturally ascend and enter.
Unorthodox cultivators do not have unified precepts or heavenly rules, and even their cultivation methods are diverse and difficult to integrate.
In fact, if it were unified and integrated, it would not be one of the various unorthodox sects, but rather another religion besides Buddhism and Taoism.
In the future, even if cultivators are unwilling to join these three religions, unorthodox sects and heretical paths will still continue to emerge.
Feng Xi was certainly aware of these difficulties.
He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Since this place has been opened up for unorthodox cultivators, we should take the lack of discipline as a warning, not teach them how to succeed, and leave only one method."
The method that Feng Xi spoke of was naturally the True Spirit Method.
The cultivators in this world also possess true spirits, which allows them to reincarnate and cultivate again and again in order to attain the Great Dao.
What he needs to do is to develop a method from the cultivation system of this world that allows true spirits to transcend reincarnation and create a new spiritual platform.
The cultivator sensed the world created by Feng Xi from his spiritual platform and entered it at will.
Of course, they are cultivators of this world after all, and it is only natural for them to temper their minds and follow the will of Heaven. This is no different from the place that Feng Xi opened up and the True Spirit Method he created.
Several cultivators seemed to ponder when they heard Feng Xi explain that after a cultivator's primordial spirit is perfected, the true spirit can transcend from the physical body and primordial spirit, and use the guidance between true spirits as a foundation to sense the opportunity for ascension.
This road might really be a broad and prosperous road.
For the rest of the time, they stayed on this harsh island, studying the transformation of the True Spirit with Feng Xi.
The five contemporary cultivators are all at least comparable to celestial immortals, and they know more about the rules and techniques of this world than Feng Xi does.
With their participation, Feng Xi's understanding of the "Spiritual Platform Opening and Creation Technique" of this world gradually deepened.
Time is slowly passing, and the world of "Shushan Swordsmen" has returned to its original path.
However, regardless of whether they are from the righteous path or the unorthodox path, they all know that there is a "Heavenly Tilt Island" in the East Sea, which is being suppressed by several powerful beings.
The so-called "Sky-Collapsing Island" refers to a place where, if a problem occurs, it will be a catastrophe, with the earth collapsing and the land sinking.
Fortunately, those few unorthodox cultivators never intended to leave Tianqing Island and stayed there for hundreds of years, which relieved many cultivators.
Over the course of several hundred years, cultivators have successively ascended to the Spirit Void Heaven Realm and the Blissful World. Even Luo Tianxian's cultivation level was sufficient to ascend to either place.
However, she was not in a hurry to ascend to heaven. Instead, she wanted to go further in the mortal world and achieve the realms of Golden Immortal and Nirvana.
Knowing that Luo Tianxian's cultivation had reached an extremely high level in both Buddhism and Taoism, Master Changmei suggested that Luo Tianxian join Emei and become a co-leader with him.
He controls the male disciples, while Luo Tianxian controls the female disciples.
Luo Tianxian refused her kindness; in this world, she was ultimately just a passerby.
Besides, nothing that this long-browed man says should be taken seriously.
The "Long-Browed Immortal" above the river of time is the real Long-Browed Immortal.
She had already realized that these long eyebrows were like her reflection in the river of time, carrying out the "long eyebrow" act on every tributary of time—
Buddhism and Taoism are merging to cope with the final tribulations.
