In the Heaven Realm, on the moon, in a pavilion with carved railings and jade.
A little boy who looked like he was carved from jade held a milk bottle in one hand and a brush in the other to practice calligraphy. Beside him, a beautiful woman in a moon-white dress was looking at him dotingly.
Suddenly, the little boy raised his head and looked at the woman beside him with a face full of excitement.
"Daddy … Daddy is back. I can feel daddy's aura."
The woman in white patted his head lovingly and said, "Little Tian, be good. You don't have a daddy. Continue writing."
"No, I have a daddy. I can feel daddy's aura. He's back. Soon, he'll come to see me!" The little boy shook his head and said seriously.
"Sigh, it's mommy's fault. I'm sorry for making you suffer, Little Tian!"
The woman hugged the boy tightly in her arms. Tears flickered in her eyes. Worry quietly covered her entire face.
There were more and more disasters in the Mortal Realm and Heaven Realm. An aura of doomsday lingered in the hearts of all living beings. In this world of catastrophes, the woman was also at a loss as to how to protect her child.
.....
In an unknown dimensional space at the border between the Mortal Realm and Heaven Realm, Cheng Hao sat cross-legged in the void and flipped through the pages of the scripture in his hand.
The Book of Changes incorporated many ancient secret scrolls. It also included divination, tortoiseshell, pills, poetry, artifacts, astrology, the three religions, the nine schools, agriculture, planting, medicine, architecture, etiquette, music, medicine, geography, atmosphere, water vapor, the secrets of the four seas, ancient records, and so on.
It could be said that it was an encyclopedia. Regardless of whether it was a cultivator or a mortal, after learning it, they could find a path that was suitable for them.
The Book of Changes contained the eight trigrams of heaven, earth, wind, thunder, water, fire, mountain, and swamp, as well as the eternal moment and the supreme Tai Chi. It was the master of divination.
In addition to deductions, the sutra also incorporated Buddhist theories like the Past Amitabha Sutra, the Tathagata Sutra, and the Sutra of Future. It also contained Great Dao proverbs like the cycle of karma. To Cheng Hao who wanted to cultivate the path of karma, this was a supreme treasure!
"This is the Divine Sense of Karma. The words are profound. You have to chew them one by one. Every time you read a word, you'll understand the meaning, but the next day, you'll understand another meaning. It's so ever-changing. I really don't know how Hong Yi made this scripture!"
Cheng Hao couldn't help but admire Hong Yi. The Haotian Sutra he had compiled was a fusion of various cultivation systems, including the body-as-seed cultivation method of Shrouding Heaven. With that as a foundation, he could condense the profundities of magical laws and plant a Dao-seed in his nascent soul.
The internal cultivation of the universe, the external cultivation of the Dao-seed, and the three flowers of essence, qi, and spirit. It was a pure scripture.
As for Hong Yi's Book of Changes, it was all-encompassing. The entire book was simply countless scriptures. As long as one had the ability to comprehend and perseverance, one would be able to find a cultivation method suitable for oneself within it.
"In terms of power of understanding and aptitude, I'm really not as good as Lin Xi and Hong Yi!"
However, Cheng Hao didn't envy them. What suited one was the best. His Haotian Sutra might not be as broad and profound as the Book of Changes, but it was the most suitable cultivation method for him.
What suits you the best is the best!
The contents of the Book of Changes were as vast as the sea. Even Cheng Hao had a hard time learning it. It was obvious that the Book of Changes was not suitable for him.
Cheng Hao had no choice but to give up on most of the content and focus on the Way of Karma. As for the Taiji Eight Trigrams, which could calculate the changes of the universe, he could only put that aside for now.
The Way of Karma in the Book of Changes was born out of the past, present, and future scriptures of the Great Zen Temple. Cheng Hao found it easier to comprehend. In just three days, he felt that he had gained a basic understanding of the Way of Karma.
For example, the Way of Karma and the Way of Destiny weren't the basic laws of the universe. Only in a higher level universe could one comprehend these illusory and idealistic laws.
The world of the Tomb of the Gods belonged to the Great Thousand Worlds. It had the existence of the Heavenly Dao that had awakened its own consciousness. Throughout the entire Tomb of the Gods, there were experts who cultivated the Way of Immortality, Way of Demons, Way of Demons, Way of Ghosts, Way of Gods, Way of Time, Way of Destruction, and all sorts of other Great Dao laws.
However, there were almost no experts who cultivated the Way of Karma. It was obvious that the evil Way of Heaven was consciously blocking cultivators from comprehending the Way of Karma.
Cheng Hao more or less had some guesses about this.
The Way of Heaven in the Divine Tomb World was no longer a pure Way of Heaven. The reason it could awaken its own consciousness was because it had merged with the evil thoughts of all living beings over countless years.
It could be said that it could awaken its own consciousness because it had an absolute karmic relationship with billions of living beings.
The evil thoughts of billions of living beings over countless years were the cause, and the self-consciousness of the Way of Heaven was the effect. The karmic relationship between the two was real and couldn't be erased.
To put it bluntly, if Cheng Hao cultivated the Way of Karma to the point where he could condense a Dao Seed, he wouldn't even need to face the evil Way of Heaven head-on. He would only need to control the karmic power between living beings and the evil Way of Heaven to play it to death. At the very least, he would be able to erase its self-consciousness.
The evil Way of Heaven was also aware of its own weakness. Therefore, it tried its best to block the Way of Karma and forbade living beings from comprehending it.
This was also the reason why the Way of Heaven was determined to destroy worlds time and time again. It was because the birth of its self-consciousness was related to all living beings.
If one wanted to end a karmic relationship, apart from both parties being willing to end it, the simplest method was to kill all the people who had formed a karmic relationship with oneself. Once all living beings in the world were wiped clean, the karmic relationship would be considered to have ended.
Dugu Baitian and the others had finally understood the relationship between the Way of Heaven and all living beings during the War of the Heavens. That was why they had gathered the power of all living beings and used it to heavily injure the Way of Heaven. They had made an indelible contribution to Chen Nan's destruction of the evil Way of Heaven.
It was precisely because of this karmic relationship that the power of all living beings could have a huge impact on the Way of Heaven. Otherwise, how could a group of ordinary people, no matter how many there were, affect the high and mighty Way of Heaven in the slightest?
It had to be said that the Book of Changes was indeed a very impressive cultivation method. At the very least, with this scripture as a reference, Cheng Hao was able to comprehend the Way of Karma to a basic level even when the Way of Heaven was blocking it.
