Humans in the primordial world, inscribing the Way of Heaven!

Chapter 209 [Shackles of Heaven and Earth, Sacrificial Ritual in a Dream] (Please Subscribe)
After Xuan Yin broke through to the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon realm, he did not rush to leave Danxue Mountain. Instead, he used the remaining wisdom and demonic consciousness here to experience the constant cycle of death and rebirth, thus tempering his mental cultivation.

He was heading towards a point in time that was buried, a place filled with endless regret. Without sufficient mental cultivation, it would be suicide.

Although the Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart underwent another transformation, it was primarily a transformation in the quality of the Heart Source Power, and it could not directly increase his mental cultivation.

Xuan Yin's mental cultivation mainly comes from the supernatural power of the Five Dreams and Seven Heart Aspects, where different beliefs and experiences converge to form the seven heart aspects.

However, the experience of the God of Wisdom greatly elevated his state of mind, which was the ultimate loneliness brought about by twenty reincarnations.

In addition, he also began to try to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in his dreams.

"Still not working?"

Xuan Yin's foundation is now no weaker than those innate saints, but in several simulations, he could only bloom a ninth-grade Dao flower when breaking through to the Great Luo realm.

This is naturally excellent.

Duobao, Zhao Gongming, Xuandu, and the others, having absorbed endless fortune, all reached this level, which is almost the limit that all beings in the primordial world can achieve.

However, Xuan Yin knew that the Three Pure Ones, with the help of Pangu's resources, had their Great Luo Flower bloom at the tenth grade, while Dao Ancestor Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had even bloomed at the eleventh grade.

He naturally wanted to go further.

After several eons of cultivation, he has basically brought all the timelines that could affect him under control. Furthermore, the mark left by the Great God Pangu is protecting him, making his breakthrough to the Great Luo realm virtually certain.

However, each time he attained enlightenment in his dreams, it ended with the Great Luo Flower blooming at the ninth grade, as if the Heavenly Dao only allowed the Great Luo Flower to bloom at the ninth grade.

"The Dao Ancestor and the Demon Ancestor are reincarnations of the Chaos Demon God, so let's leave that aside for now. But I am now also a grandson of Pangu, certified by the Great God Pangu... If we're talking about lineage, I should be no weaker than my teacher, and those two too!"

Xuan Yin didn't dare to hope for the Great Luo Flower to bloom at the eleventh or twelfth grade, but he felt that he could still try to get it to bloom at the tenth grade.

With these doubts in mind, he also consulted the Tongtian Sect Leader through the Spirit Network.

However, the Tongtian Sect Leader's answer left him at a loss as to how to emulate it, because the Three Pure Ones, upon taking human form, possessed the essence of Pangu and the qualities of the Great Luo, and when their flowers bloomed to the tenth grade, it was a natural progression within the Zixiao Palace.

At that time, the consciousness of the three of them briefly entered Pangu's realm, and it was through this opportunity that they broke free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

Nine is the ultimate number of the Heavenly Dao. In this space-time, the Great Luo Flower blooming at the ninth grade is the limit, even if you have a foundation that surpasses many innate saints.

According to the Tongtian Sect Leader, if one wants to break through this limit and break the extreme number of nine, one cannot prove the Dao in the present time and space, but should go to a time and space where the Heavenly Dao does not exist, or try to enter Pangu's realm.

Can……

In a time and space where the Heavenly Dao does not exist, and the Immortal Dao has not yet been established, attempting to attain enlightenment in such a time and space would undoubtedly trigger a terrifying time-space paradox.

"Will you move into Pangu Plaza?"

Although Xuan Yin has gained Pangu's approval, he is not very confident that he can enter Pangu's territory, use Pangu's power to break the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao on the prehistoric beings, and condense a Dao Flower of grade nine or above.

after all……

Even if it's his own grandson, once he goes to the place where creation began, he still has to accept Pangu's correction!
Under the axe, all beings are equal. What grandson or granddaughter? Let my axe talk to you!

After thinking it over, Xuan Yin decided to ask Luo Hou about the eleven-petaled Great Luo Flower, although it was somewhat related to his background as a Chaos Demon God.

However, after being reborn in the Primordial Realm and nurtured by the Rahu Star, it could only be considered of average level among the many innate deities.

In terms of innate origin, it is definitely inferior to the Three Pure Ones, and also inferior to the top-grade innate spiritual roots of beings like Zhunti, Yangmei, and Zhenyuanzi.

However, he became a saint before the others and condensed the Dao Fruit of the Primordial Golden Immortal.

"Senior Luo Hou?"

Xuan Yin is now so burdened with debt that he has no worries. As the second-generation Rahu, he has inherited so much karma and doesn't care about taking on more karma!

If you are unsure about something, you can ask Rahu. If Rahu remains silent, you can ask Lingbao. If your own teacher does not know, then you can only follow your own heart!

"Not bad!"

Rahu's will slowly emerged from the space-time in which he left his mark: "In such a short time, he has broken through to the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Realm!"

"Say it!"

"What business do you have with me?"

Luo Hou was quite lenient towards Xuan Yin, after all, he was the one who would inherit his own karma, and he didn't mind giving him more care.

Xuan Yin didn't put on airs and directly stated his current predicament.

Upon hearing this, Luo Hou laughed immediately: "Boy, you've hit the nail on the head! You're already a Great Free Demon now, so do you know which word is the core of the demonic path?"

In that instant, several words flashed through Xuan Yin's mind: survival of the fittest, the law of the jungle, and selfishness at the expense of others...

But he rejected them all one by one!

Although these things are all used to describe the demonic path, the demonic path, as a cultivation system that stands alongside the immortal path, the divine path, and the Buddhist path, aims directly at the realm of saints. How could its core be so vulgar?
"Senior, please give me some advice!"

Since he couldn't figure it out, Xuan Yin didn't hesitate and directly asked Luo Hou for advice.

Upon seeing this, Luo Hou nodded in satisfaction, but instead of mentioning the core of the demonic path, he first spoke of the divine path, the immortal path, and the Buddhist path.

"In the primordial chaos, there exists a Dao, and the divine communicates with the Dao. The core of the divine Dao lies in the word 'sincerity'!"

"If the heart is not sincere, the Way will not be effective; if the Way is not effective, the Law will not be effective. Without a just heart, one cannot gain the approval of the authority of Heaven and Earth!"

"But Hongjun's path to immortality has fewer restrictions. The sages of your Xuanmen sect summarized the cultivation of immortality in sixteen characters: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the Dao. But that can only be used to describe the realms before the Great Luo realm!"

"The Great Luo has already approached the Dao; the Sage himself can be said to be the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao!"

"And the most important thing from the Great Luo to the Saint is undoubtedly to sever the Three Corpses!"

"Therefore, in my view, the core of the Immortal Path is the word 'slaying'!"

"The three corpses can be severed, the seven emotions and six desires can be severed, cause and effect and destiny can be severed, and merit and karmic obstacles can be severed. Cut off all those things that bind you, whether good or bad, and you will naturally be closer to the Tao!"

"And the methods of Buddhism..."

At this point, Luo Hou's gaze lingered on Xuan Yin for a moment: "Since you were able to sever both your Sambhogakaya and Nirmanakaya bodies in such a short time, you should naturally know that Buddhist and Taoist cultivation cannot rely solely on accumulated foundations and the power of incense and vows; the key lies in enlightenment!" "Bodhi leads to enlightenment, lotus blossoms reveal their form. Since you were born with a mind of seven orifices, full of wisdom, there will naturally be no obstacles to your Buddhist and Taoist cultivation!"

"Not to mention, you have now refined a portion of the incomplete essence of the God of Wisdom!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yin immediately nodded. Luo Hou's analysis was meticulous and insightful, and his analysis of the three systems seemed to get straight to the heart of the matter.

"What about the demonic path?"

Although his demonic cultivation has caught up, he spends the least amount of time on demonic cultivation among the four systems.

Therefore, even though he has inherited a lot of Luo Hou's karma, he still doesn't have a particularly clear understanding of the demonic system.

At most, one might think that the supernatural powers of the demonic path are unpredictable and impossible to guard against!

Luo Hou didn't keep anyone in suspense this time: "The core of the demonic path lies in the word 'sacrifice'!"

"Having seen my Three Incarnations, don't you also feel that the method of severing the three thoughts that I created is very similar to the Buddhist method of severing the three bodies? Are they both plagiarisms or borrowed from Hongjun's method of severing the three corpses?"

Xuan Yin immediately nodded.

Rahu immediately retorted, "You are completely wrong! The method of severing the three thoughts that I created is only to gather the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance, as well as the seven emotions and six desires of living beings, and then sacrifice them!"

"Although we are all in constant reincarnation, I became a saint in the third era, which is two eras less than your teachers and the others!"

"But now, I've taken the lead over them, and the key lies in this word 'sacrifice'!"

"Whether it is beneficial or detrimental to me, whether it belongs to me or not, it can all become my provisions through the Great Sacrifice!"

"To learn, one gains daily; to pursue the Way, one loses daily. Whether it is Hongjun or Yangmei, they both believe that once one reaches a certain level, one should begin to reduce and seek emptiness!"

"But when would be the right time?"

"Is it to be more powerful than Pangu?"

Luo Hou shook his head: "But even after so many reincarnations, our own foundation is still no match for Pangu!"

"If you want to be on par with Pangu, the only way is to devour Pangu and his Great Dao. This is why I am trying to reverse the process of refining the Primordial True World!"

"In one era, I succeeded. At that time, I was unprecedentedly powerful, but I still couldn't reach the realm of transcendence!"

"So, in the endless cycle, I began to constantly search for that balance point!"

"Hongjun and Yangmei's idea of ​​seeking emptiness through subtraction is correct, but before that, they also need to accumulate profound knowledge and experience!"

"What method can allow a living being to accumulate enough resources?"

"Of course, it's the grand festival!"

"All things in heaven and earth have an origin. Merit and karma are also evolutions of this origin. The desires in people's hearts also come from various origins!"

Luo Hou suddenly laughed: "Boy, didn't you want to break the extreme number of nine? Then when you're condensing the Great Luo Dao Fruit, sacrifice everything! The Heavenly Yi Dao Fruit of the Divine Path, the Great Awakening Golden Immortal Dao Fruit of the Buddhist Path, and the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Dao Fruit of the Demonic Path, sacrifice them all together, and turn these powers into resources for the ultimate sublimation of your Great Luo Dao Fruit. Finally, sacrifice the Great Luo Dao Fruit you've condensed as well!"

"I'll tell you!"

"The reason why I was able to bloom the eleventh petal of the Great Luo Flower is because I found a portion of my original essence when I was a Chaos Demon God in the primordial world, and sacrificed it along with my own Dao Fruit!"

"Hahaha!"

"My predecessor was the God of Destruction, but after I sacrificed my original essence, the Path of Destruction became a branch of the Demonic Path!"

"If you don't break, you won't stand!"

"No madness, no life!"

"How can we break the rules and reach a higher realm without sacrificing everything?"

"If it weren't for the fact that my cultivation wasn't high enough at that time, and I had directly sacrificed the Primordial True Realm, I might have been able to bloom the Great Luo Flower at the twelfth level, skipping the Primordial Golden Immortal realm and directly entering the Primordial Great Luo realm!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yin fell silent. Luo Hou was undoubtedly a genius, but also a madman, willing to sacrifice everything in the world to prove his Dao.

But can I, like Rahu, sacrifice everything without reservation?

the answer is negative.

Because they have something they care about, they can't gamble everything like Rahu.

But there are other ways.

"The Way of Dreams!"

Behind Xuan Yin's head, the light of wisdom shone continuously, and with Pangu's "Dao Jie" supernatural power, he constantly dissected the supreme Dao of immortals, demons, gods, and Buddhas.

The cultivation levels of the Immortal Path, Demonic Path, and Divine Path can all be sacrificed first. With those insights remaining, it won't be difficult to cultivate these great paths again!
The key is other things.

There are some things he cannot give up, even more so than emotions, such as beliefs. He is even less capable of sacrificing a world like Rahu did.

but……

He dared not sacrifice the true world, the true origin, but what about the world evolved from the Dream Path?
Although it is illusory, with Xuan Yin's current cultivation level, he can refine the illusory into the real, constantly sacrificing everything in the dream to himself.

In addition, he could also sacrifice his other timeline counterparts!

Only the true self remains!

[A Dream of Offering Sacrifices]

After some deduction, combined with the Daoist's dream of attaining enlightenment and Rahu's sacrificial ritual, a brand new and profound method was born!
After bidding farewell to Luo Hou, Xuan Yin also began to put his ideas into practice without hesitation!

What does it matter if the Taiyi Golden Immortal binds the timelines? He will sacrifice all these timelines, making the endless "others" the resources of his true self.

In addition, the many mysterious things that evolved from the dream world he constructed were also sacrificed by him using Rahu's sacrificial ritual!

But a moment later, he used the Dream Path to replicate everything that had happened before!
