Primordial Era: I, Huanglong, have refined all the heavens, and will not join the Chan Sect.

Chapter 35 Burdened by Karma, Seeking Merit Again

"After cultivating for ten thousand years, this day has finally come."

Reflecting on his years of cultivation, Huanglong couldn't help but sigh.

If I hadn't encountered the extraterrestrial demon who was a transmigrator, obtained the transmigrator's memories, and acquired the Devouring Yuan Gourd...

He has probably only recently entered the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and it is likely that he will never reach the pinnacle of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Where else could one find such a state, where not only have the five elements within one's chest been condensed, achieving complete perfection as a Taiyi Golden Immortal, but one also possesses innate spiritual roots and innate spiritual treasures from all heavens?

Their supernatural powers and cultivation techniques are also among the best in the primordial world.

Moreover, the five elements that Huanglong condensed in his chest were unique in the entire prehistoric world.

Even if someone has gathered the innate Geng metal, innate Yi wood, innate Gui water, innate Bing fire, and innate Wu earth qi, the five qi gathered in their chest cannot compare to this.

The moment Huanglong ingested the Primordial Five Elements Source Liquid, he felt his primordial spirit merge into the Great Dao of the Five Elements.

The Five Elements Dao was like a young maiden taking a bath, revealing itself to Huanglong without any concealment, allowing him to observe and comprehend it at will.

He quickly comprehended a new Heavenly Divine Power called the Five Elements Great Escape.

After learning this supernatural power, Huanglong gained a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the Five Elements and new insights into the Five Elements Escape Technique, which greatly increased his own flying speed.

After Huanglong completely refined this drop of innate five elements source liquid, his understanding of the Five Elements Dao increased by another ten percent.

In addition to his previous repair of the western earth veins, Huanglong's understanding of the Great Dao of Earth has reached 20% mastery.

As long as the five elements within the chest are transformed into auspicious clouds, the seed of the Great Dao that emerges from the earth can be condensed!

It should be known that condensing the seed of the Great Dao is something that only a Great Luo Golden Immortal can do.

Because the true spirit of a Taiyi Golden Immortal cannot escape the River of Destiny, and the true spirit has not yet returned to its rightful place, their understanding of the Great Dao remains like seeing only a part of the whole picture.

Ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortals, let alone mastering 20% ​​of a certain Great Dao and thus condensing a Great Dao seed, are considered to have extraordinary talent if they can comprehend even 10% of the Great Dao.

At least in Huanglong's own memory, and in the memories of the transmigrators, there was no known being who could condense the seed of the Great Dao while still at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Perhaps the Three Pure Ones, the Queen Mother of the West, and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, all of whom were exceptionally talented, could have achieved this when they were Taiyi Golden Immortals.

However, they were born as innate deities, already Great Golden Immortals at birth. Rounding down, Huanglong was unprecedented.

"It's time to move on to the next step!"

After expressing his feelings, Huanglong closed his eyes again, mobilized the five elements in his chest, and gradually formed a celebratory cloud above his head.

At first, this auspicious cloud was empty.

As Huanglong's understanding of the Great Dao of Earth flowed into it, a yellowish-brown seed appeared within Qingyun.

This is the seed of the Great Way of Earth!

If one possesses a seed of the Great Dao, the three flowers that bloom on the top of one's head when one enters the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm will inevitably be of a higher grade.

As long as Huanglong continues to deepen his understanding of the Great Dao of Earth, this seed of the Great Dao will sprout, blossom, and eventually bear fruit, becoming a Dao Fruit representing the Great Dao of Earth.

If one wishes to follow the path of proving the Dao through force and achieve the status of a Primordial Golden Immortal, then condensing the Dao Fruit of the Great Dao is an important condition.

According to the information Huanglong obtained from the memories of the transmigrators, there are three methods of proving the Dao.

The first method is to prove one's principles through force.

This is the most difficult of the three methods of attaining enlightenment.

Proving the Dao through force can be further divided into proving the Dao through laws, proving the Dao through the physical body, proving the Dao through magical power, and proving the Dao through the primordial spirit. Regardless of the type, there are very few that can be found in the boundless chaos.

Even if Huanglong had mastered the Dao of Earth to its fullest extent, he still wouldn't have been able to attain the Great Luo of Primordial Chaos with just this one Dao.

Huang Long has always been clear-headed. Even with the memories of a transmigrator and the Devouring Yuan Gourd, it is still unrealistic for him to embark on the path of proving the Dao through force.

Therefore, proving one's principles through force can be an alternative, but it should never be the primary path.

The second method is to sever the three corpses and attain enlightenment.

By severing the three corpses and entrusting them to the spiritual treasure, one can finally reunite the three corpses and attain the Primordial Chaos.

However, this method is also quite difficult. In the primordial world, only Hongjun Daoren proved the Dao of Hunyuan through this method.

Even the exceptionally talented Taiqing Daoist, who successfully severed the three corpses, could not achieve the unification of the three corpses.

Therefore, this method is also unsuitable for Huanglong.

He doesn't believe that he can compare to Hongjun or surpass the Three Pure Ones.

Moreover, he didn't even go to Zixiao Palace to listen to the Dao, and he didn't even know the method of severing the three corpses, so how could he prove the Dao through this method?

The third method is to attain enlightenment through merit.

This is the mainstream method of enlightenment for primordial sages, which involves attaining the Primordial Chaos realm by accumulating a massive amount of merit.

Whether it was the Six Sages of Heaven or the Ancestral Witch Houtu, they all attained the Primordial Chaos through this method.

In Huanglong's view, this is the most suitable path for him at present. He happens to know many ways to accumulate merit, and once he becomes a Great Golden Immortal, he can start to plan for merit on a large scale.

As for the saying in the transmigrator's memories that the merit-based path to enlightenment is the weakest, Huang Long thought it was all utter nonsense.

Even if one's merit and virtue are weak, one is still a saint, a Primordial Golden Immortal, an immortal and indestructible supreme being, which is incomparable to a Golden Immortal.

If you think that using merit to attain enlightenment is too weak, then you must be able to use the other two methods to attain enlightenment.

If you can't even achieve merit and enlightenment, yet you still complain about this and that, then you are simply arrogant and foolish!

During these ten thousand years of cultivation, Huanglong made the following plan for the cultivation of the Great Luo lineage.

First, if you can obtain merit from the Great Dao, then do so as much as possible. The effect of merit from the Heavenly Dao cannot compare with that of merit from the Great Dao.

Secondly, one cannot neglect cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities. Even if one achieves sainthood through merit, the strength of one's cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities will vary.

Third, we must continue to comprehend the laws and the Great Way. Comprehending the Great Way and achieving sainthood through merit are not in conflict, but rather complement each other.

Leaving aside the matter of attaining enlightenment, even among those who are both Great Luo Golden Immortals, those who are proficient in the laws and great Dao will have stronger combat power.

Moreover, if one can use this to embark on the path of proving the Way through force, that would be even better.

Huang Long has a clear understanding of himself, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the ambition to become stronger.

Fourth, enhance magical power. The deeper one's magical power, the stronger one's endurance in magical battles, and the more powerful the supernatural abilities one can use.

Fifth, one must have spiritual roots and treasures. Although spiritual roots and treasures are external things, they can greatly enhance a person's strength.

However, all of this happened after Ronaldo.

What we need to do now is to unleash the three flowers at the top and enter the realm of the Great Luo!

Huang Long then stopped thinking about it. As his cultivation technique flowed and his magical power surged, three seeds gradually formed in the auspicious clouds above his head.

These are the seeds of the three flowers: essence, energy, and spirit!

If even one of the seeds can bloom, one can enter the realm of the Great Luo Immortal, allowing the true spirit to transcend the river of fate, take control of its own destiny, and become a Great Luo Golden Immortal!

However, just as Huanglong flew out of the Taoist temple, revealing his true dragon form, his blood and qi surged, wanting to make the essence flower bloom and step into the Great Luo realm.

The heavy karma he carried suddenly transformed into a solid piece of divine metal, tightly enveloping the three-flower seed within.

Seeing this, Huanglong knew that no matter how hard he tried, under the influence of karma, the three-flower seeds had no chance of blooming.

"It still doesn't work!"

Although Huang Long had anticipated this, he still couldn't help but feel disappointed when he saw the outcome.

Among the three clans of dragon, phoenix, and qilin, many beings that have survived since ancient times are unable to attain the Great Luo realm because of the constraints of karma.

Huang Long quickly adjusted his mindset; he already had a plan to deal with this.

The best way to eliminate karma is to accumulate merit. In the Western Sea, there are many sea eyes, which are excellent channels for accumulating merit.

However, this matter is not urgent. Huanglong transformed back into human form and landed in the Yunyin Taoist Temple. After so many years of seclusion, he should also pay attention to Baimi's cultivation and relax his tense nerves.
