Inside Baoguang Temple.
Chung Shen-soo's expression suddenly became extremely pained.
He could feel the high and mighty Heavenly Dao.
But this Heavenly Dao was not the Heavenly Dao that he had imagined.
The Heavenly Dao was selfless, heartless, and did not distinguish between good and evil.
But the Heavenly Dao of the Seven Luminaries Heaven seemed to be filled with malice!
Terrifying auras, countless ravings, and all sorts of grotesque and dazzling images rushed into Zhong Shenxiu's sea of consciousness.
To a normal practitioner, these images were like flowers falling from the sky, golden lotuses sprouting from the ground, the Heavenly Dao's blessing, and the sound of the Great Dao … they would definitely be overjoyed and feel that their attainments had increased tremendously.
But Chung Shen-soo was drenched in cold sweat.
"There is definitely something wrong with the Heavenly Dao of this world … from the reactions of Damo and the Stone Buddha, it is most likely that it has been contaminated by some evil god …"
"If I accept this blessing, I'm afraid I will immediately be in trouble …"
He thought of the internal organs of the masters with the Divine Powers being destroyed, and the inhuman feeling of the Primal Core Grandmasters being injured, and suddenly he had an epiphany.
"Looks like the path of cultivation in this world has also gone astray."
"On the contrary, it was Zhang Taiyi who accidentally created the External Alchemy Method, which is considered to be on the right path."
When Zhang Taiyi first appeared, he was like a ghost, but after creating the External Alchemy, he recovered his image of a handsome young man, which left a deep impression on Chung Shen-soo.
At this moment, he suddenly understood another use of the External Alchemy Method.
"A practitioner's Primal Core is the source of their body, and their spirit is where they are … once they are contaminated, there is no way to escape. Some might even be happy to join in, but complain that the contamination is too slow. Because to them, this is entering the path, and getting closer to the path … "
"But I am different, mine is … the External Alchemy!"
"The External Alchemy Method is not the source, although it is closely related, but it is a dam, or rather … a firewall!"
"Back then, Zhang Taiyi saw that the Primordial Soul Grandmasters and the Dharmakaya Sect Leader had a huge change in temperament. That was why he did not want to become an immortal, and created the External Alchemy Method to satisfy both sides."
"So …"
With this thought, Chung Shen-soo immediately activated the External Elixir, absorbing all the madness and pollution.
At the same time, threads of pure magical power and True Essence were compressed by the External Alchemy. After many rounds of purification, there were no longer any impurities. Only then did he carefully absorb them.
"In this world, the Heavenly Dao leans toward evil. If you wish to become an immortal, you have no choice but to go along with them … but if you do, you'll become a monster. Although I don't care about my appearance, the change in my temperament is a problem. "
"Therefore, I have to use the external alchemy to bear the madness and pollution, but I and my true spirit have to withdraw from it. I can only build my foundation with pure righteous methods. All supernatural powers will be mobilized through the external alchemy to build a firewall dam. This is the way to barely maintain myself."
Chung Shen-soo wanted to live a carefree life, but he didn't want to lose his nature.
If a person lost his sense of self, what difference was there between him and the dead?
Even if he wanted to become a monster or an Undead Immortal, it had to be voluntary and not forced.
Crack!
Chung Shen-soo lowered his head and saw a crack appear on the surface of the Five Eyes Six Connection Bodhi Bead. It shattered into powder.
This Bodhi Bead could allow one to comprehend the Heavenly Dao once. In the outside world, it was a treasure that would make countless cultivators fight for it.
But now, it no longer had any value or wonder.
"Looks like the abnormality of this Bodhi Bead was discovered by a high monk, so he built this Baoguang Temple to suppress it …"
"Unfortunately, the recent changes in Nine Palace Mountain caused the seal to shatter, and a trace of evil energy leaked out, causing the strange village from before? That coffin was the projection of the Bodhi Bead? "
Chung Shen-soo didn't care about this.
He took a deep breath. "The Heavenly Dao of this world is like this. I have to change my cultivation plan."
Previously, he was thinking of seeking cultivation techniques from the Buddhist and Demon Sects.
But these were all new techniques that adapted to the Heavenly Dao of this world. They would definitely be polluted, and it would be hard to predict the future!
Chung Shen-soo didn't want to be restricted by the world, so he could only give up.
"The new method won't work, and the ancient method won't work either. The ancient method has long been proven to be rejected by this world. It's destined to fail … So, I can only take the External Alchemy Method!
"By continuously deriving the External Alchemy Method to great success, I will have an External Dao Primordial Spirit and an External Dao Dharma body … Only then will I be able to use the Qi of Heaven and Earth here without being polluted by the world. I will have the chance to become an immortal … and a real immortal!"
If he took the path of External Alchemy Method, in the end, it was obvious that Chung Shen-soo wouldn't become a monster. At most, the External Alchemy Method would turn into some strange object.
That was nothing. It was equivalent to refining an extremely fierce and evil External Avatar.
It was just like the Buddhist monks in the myths. They looked dignified, but they were protected by Yakshas and Asuras.
"But … the follow-up of the cultivation technique is still a problem."
Zhang Taiyi had only derived an External Alchemy Method.
Chung Shen-soo, on the other hand, wanted to go one step further and derive an External Dao Primordial Spirit Method!
"Zhang Taiyi's foundation is still the Daoist method of the Dragon Tiger Sect. If I want to derive an External Dao Primordial Spirit Method, I might have to get my hands on the profound Daoist method of the Dragon Tiger Sect as a reference … Otherwise, the consumption would be ten times higher.
In Chung Shen-soo's mind, this was not a self-created path.
In fact, he was also standing on the shoulders of many cultivators who practiced the new method. He was just letting the External Alchemy practice the new method.
As for himself, he might be more inclined toward the cultivators of the ancient method.
By combining the new method and the ancient method and finding a balance among the contradictions, he would have the chance to achieve Dao in this Seven Luminaries Heaven.
"Seven Luminaries Heaven … This name is also very problematic. There are only three suns and two moons in this world. At most, it is considered five elements. Why did the ancient cultivators call it Seven Luminaries Heaven? Could it be … that there was a great war that caused the world to lose two elements?
"Perhaps in the ancient times, there was a war even more terrifying than the destruction of the Yan Han Empire … and it completely changed the ecology of this world?"
Zhong Shenxiu was lost in thought, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Lu Jianping, on the other hand, came to a realization from the wondrous voice of the Dao. He put his palms together and said, "Benefactor, your Buddhist nature is very profound. It is fate that you are able to comprehend the Brahma Heaven. I have benefited a lot. Thank you …"
"This person … has fallen into a trap."
Chung Shen-soo looked at Lu Jianping with a somewhat pitiful expression.
This scholar might have had some fortuitous encounters on the Bodhi Seed and received the teachings of an eminent monk. Once he entered the Dao, he cultivated the Dharma and was comparable to the Gang Sha realm.
But just now, he was confused by the Heavenly Dao of this world and thought that it was the supreme 'Brahma' of Buddhism!
He had already gone astray. Even nine bulls could not pull him back.
"However, the Buddhists of this world have already gone astray. Perhaps this scholar in this state is the real Bodhisattva in their eyes …"
Chung Shen-soo was speechless.
As for entering Buddhism from a Confucian?
That was not a problem. Because in this world, reading books could at most nourish one's Qi, but they could not cultivate Divine Powers.
Those scholars still maintained a bit of arrogance on the surface, but who knew how much they envied the cultivators behind the scenes.
"This is also your fortuitous encounter. Don't stand on ceremony."
Chung Shen-soo smiled and replied, "Our fate has come to an end. Farewell …"
