Devil's Bible

A Thousand-Faced Soul.

This is a very peculiar world.

People choose to worship the spirits of their ancestors.

The soul undergoes a transformation due to the protection of the ancestors.

After the soul transformation, one can obtain the corresponding power.

Depending on their ancestors, they share many virtues, and the power generated by their soul transformation is also different.

When one's own soul reaches its ultimate transformation, it can also become the soul of an ancestor, receiving offerings and incense from descendants.

This hunting ground was originally rarely visited by anyone because those who did usually didn't gain anything.

The power system of the Thousand Transformations Soul has a high upper limit, with a total of six tiers.

Awakening, Soul Condensation, Divine Communication, Harmony with Virtue, Return to One's Origin, Becoming an Ancestor.

Two ranks constitute one species; in other words, returning to the ancestral lineage and becoming an ancestor are equivalent to the golden species.

Furthermore, the golden brethren in this hunting ground do not possess any martial virtue.

If they really start fighting, his ancestors will come out.

While a family may appear to have only one Soul Transformer at the Returning to the Clan level, in reality, if something were to happen, there could be several ancestors in the ancestral hall.

Of course, the ancestral souls of the Guizong and Chengzu levels are generally only found in large families.

For some smaller families, having an ancestor at the Soul Condensation stage who can barely help their descendants awaken their powers is already considered quite remarkable.

In this situation, outsiders, who have no ancestral spirits, are regarded as evil spirits and heretics.

Once their true colors are revealed, they will be ganged up on and beaten.

In addition, most of the resources here are related to things like the soul, incense, and virtue.

Therefore, naturally no golden-type creatures would be willing to come here to hunt.

Xavier's so-called "passing through this hunting ground" certainly did not mean passing through the entire hunting ground.

It was their small area.

The strong have their way of playing, and the weak have theirs.

The area they were in was called Tree Ridge.

There is a continuous mountain range, and many people have built villages and towns around it, forming clans.

Xavier and his group only managed to gain a foothold by joining a newly established family in a small town.

According to the rules of the hunting grounds, they only need to help the family they've joined overcome their calamity to pass the level.

They will be able to obtain the corresponding opportunity to ascend to a higher dimension, thereby taking this world's specialty, 'Soul Transformation', out of the world.

Soul Transformation, this special cultivation method, is definitely a great help to those who practice meditation.

When the soul undergoes transformation, virtue takes over and can stabilize the transformation of the soul.

If used in meditation practice, it can calm the soul, accelerate the progress of practice, and greatly increase the amount of time available for meditation each day.

It can be said that after the soul transformation, possessing virtue is equivalent to having an additional talent specifically for cultivation.

“This method of cultivation is truly wondrous.” After entering, Xavier’s speech patterns also changed slightly to suit local customs.

“This Blackwater Virtue can calm the mind, enhance insight, and increase wisdom. Even without practicing meditation, one can still receive considerable blessings by following the breathing method. We must acquire it!” Xavier said to his companions.

Everyone else nodded, looking very serious.

The foundation of this world lies in our ancestors, and the foundation of our ancestors lies in their virtue.

The foundation of virtue generally begins with the Five Virtues.

The Five Virtues are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth; and the Five Elements are benevolence, righteousness,

Of course, these five virtues also have many different classifications.

It is said that the virtue of water belongs to wisdom, and thus there are virtues such as white water, black water, blue water, green water, and muddy water.

"White water is lively, black water is still."

Blackwater is essentially a deep, bottomless body of water.

When transformed into virtue, it becomes tranquility and wisdom.

The Han family of Shuling is the family that possesses the Black Water Virtue. The Thousand Transformations Soul Hunting Ground emphasizes transformation.

Every ten years is a hurdle, every thirty years is a minor tribulation, every sixty years is a medium tribulation, every one hundred and twenty years is a major tribulation, and every two hundred and forty years is a death tribulation.

During each tribulation, the virtues of the Five Elements will circulate.

During times of great calamity, a single misstep can lead to a change of dynasty.

Under such a calamity, even a dynasty would be powerless to reverse its fate and would inevitably collapse.

This is a minor calamity that occurs only once every thirty years.

Of course, the timing of time varies from place to place, so the time is not an absolutely accurate fixed number; it may be earlier or later.

At this moment, the Han family is the center of a minor calamity in the eastern part of Shuling.

This family, Xinli, was only established twenty years ago.

During these twenty years, their growth aroused the suspicion of the Lin family next door.

The Han family is associated with the element of water, while the Lin family is associated with the element of fire.

Under the influence of calamity, the five virtues circulate, and the virtue of fire has a very high probability of flowing into the virtue of water.

Therefore, the Lin family has repeatedly attempted to assassinate people in this eastern area.

It is precisely for this reason that the Han family recruits outsiders as retainers in order to deal with the family war with the Lin family.

The term "retainer" refers to someone from a different family.

Many people have lost their ancestors, left their homes, and severed their roots due to various calamities.

Without ancestors, one cannot awaken, and without awakening, one cannot complete the soul transformation and enter the Soul Condensation stage.

It's incredibly difficult to leave behind a soul and become an ancestor based solely on one's own abilities.

As a result, some people thought of seeking refuge with other families and relying on the ancestors of others for spiritual cultivation.

Although this lowers the upper limit, it still allows one to achieve Soul Condensation.

Once the contract between the two parties is completed, they can leave their master's family and then find another place to establish their own family.

Xavier and his group are now his retainers.

"Hmph, those who lack moral character!" Xavier and his group entered again and saw an elder of the Han family.

The elder who ranked third did not give them a friendly look.

Without cultivating virtue and without the protection of one's ancestors, one can only take crooked and evil paths.

The retainers were a mixed bag, many of them petty thieves and scoundrels.

As a result, many people disliked these retainers, believing that they would ruin the family's reputation.

After being scolded like that, Xavier was not angry. He simply cupped his hands in greeting to the Third Elder of the Han family.

They then began to investigate the changes that had occurred since they left.

During this period, the Han family and the Lin family have clashed several times, with each side winning and losing.

Judging from the situation, it seems the Lin family will soon be attacking the Han family's territory.

This minor calamity, which occurs once every thirty years, is a calamity for both the Han and Lin families.

If the Lin family cannot destroy the Han family within a certain period of time, then after this period, the virtue of water will continue, and the Han family will surely produce several experts in succession. At that time, the Lin family will surely be destroyed.

Meanwhile, the Han family has also reached a critical moment. Their prodigy, Han Sheng, has now reached the threshold of Hede.

Once you overcome this obstacle, you can become a Soul Transformer in the Harmony Realm.

The so-called "harmony of virtues" means cultivating other virtues besides the virtue of water.

Beyond the virtues of the Five Elements, there are countless other virtues.

However, the virtue of water generally belongs to wisdom. Wisdom is a virtue that can be represented by single-character virtues such as brightness, wisdom, intelligence, and attainment, or by two-character virtues such as civility and filial piety.

As for virtues such as literature, law, divinity, and philosophy, those are virtues that only emperors or sages can cultivate.

The official news from the Han family is that Han Sheng has already developed the virtue of 'wise'.

By combining the virtues of Black Water Virtue and Wise Virtue, one can form the appearance of a deep pool.

Its strength is comparable to that of top-tier Steel-type monsters. (End of Chapter)
