After some contemplation, Fang Xing was already feeling a little excited. He had guessed something, but he did not dare to believe it. At this point, he could only forcefully suppress the eagerness in his heart. Then, with a slight thought, he activated a certain technique...
In just an instant, a strand of his consciousness contained that sword light!
It was the Sword Light of Heaven's Will. It gave Fang Xing the possibility of severing fate. This was his sword of self-destruction!
Boom!
In a single breath, Fang Xing's consciousness began to undergo endless changes. Wisps of vitality rose from the ground. This was the Origin Energy that he had stolen from the body that was buried in the Heaven Realm of Qing Xuan. At this moment, he extracted it and turned it into a pure Origin Energy that was added to Fang Xing's consciousness. It began to fill the Sword Light of Heaven's Will with seemingly endless power. It vibrated, as if there was a huge hand that was formed from divine power that grasped the sword...
"Go, let me see the supreme immortal might of the Taishang Dao!"
Fang Xing thought to himself. Then, the Sword Light of Heaven's Will drew a strange and mysterious arc and slashed at one of the chains...
"Hua!"
This was different from when Fang Xing had forcefully broken the three chains of fate. At that time, he had relied on brute force to break the chains. But now, he had added in other principles. The chains of fate seemed to have sensed something and were actually trembling and struggling. When the sword light slashed at it, it actually transformed into the appearance of Fang Xing. He was clad in black battle armor, and his hands were in the Yin Yang Technique as he charged at the Sword Light of Heaven's Will. It turned out that fate had developed its own consciousness and was using the former Fang Xing as a weapon to resist the sword light!
Unfortunately, this phantom represented the Fang Xing from a long time ago, and did not possess much power. Moreover, this phantom was abnormally stiff. It was only a simulation of the most basic power that Fang Xing once possessed, and there were few changes. Under the Heavenly Will Sword Light, it did not have much power to resist at all, and almost dissipated in response to the force. Then, the sword slashed down on the iron chains...
Under the power of the Sword of Heavenly Will, which was infused with killing intent, the chains snapped and scattered in the air.
The Sword of Heaven's Will didn't stop for even a second and continued to slash at the second Fate …
Whoosh!
Another phantom of Fang Xing leaped out, this one even stronger than the previous one. He rode on lightning and charged towards the Sword Light of Heaven's Will!
However, under the augmentation of the Sword Light of Heaven's Will and the power of the Divine Art, he still dissipated without any resistance!
"Hua! Hua!"
As his Fates were severed one by one, Fang Xing also met his increasingly stronger self …
Along the way, countless Fates had become his opponents, fighting fiercely with him and stopping the Sword of Heaven's Will from slashing down. In fact, in his heart, he was already unsure whether this was the demonic barrier that was born in his heart during the process of severing his Fates, or the counterattack of Fates. He only knew that once he made up his mind, there was no longer any hesitation. Even if it was himself blocking in front of him, he would slash down without hesitation, destroying all the phantoms that belonged to him in the past …
But what he did not realize was that although the process was very smooth, his heart was getting colder and colder …
"So, the previous me had so many flaws …"
It was a very strange feeling. The more he pushed forward with the sword light, the more he discovered his previous shortcomings!
In the process, he thought back to the past and even felt that he had relied on luck to get this far …
When he severed the fifth Fate, he was even sweating profusely and his heart was dead!
"If I'm really so useless, then what's the point of continuing to cultivate?
"In the past, I relied on luck to get to where I am today. If I lose my luck in the future, won't I still die?"
That extremely gloomy thought made him want to give up everything!
At this moment, Fang Xing's divine sense, which was controlling the Sword of Heaven's Will, had already dimmed, as if it was shrouded by a layer of gray demonic smoke. It was dim and lusterless, even shrinking and changing, like a withered tree, losing its divinity …
That demonic smoke originally came from within his divine sense, and was a part of his divine sense, so it could not be dispelled!
This made him frustrated, dejected, and even lose all hope …
He did not know that although it seemed like he was only severing his past self, in fact, he was severing his fate …
The more he severed his fate, the more terrifying it became, because only by seeing through his past self could he sever his past limitations. Because of this, the more fate he severed, the greater the resistance he encountered. In the end, it was easy for him to fall into his own heart's devil, and every bit of the past would emerge, blinding his heart and making him deny his past self. The current him was originally from the past, and if he denied his past self, it was easy for him to lose confidence in himself, just like a pavilion that had lost its foundation …
However, just as he was feeling dejected and almost lost himself, an ancient mirror silently floated behind his head. The ancient mirror was crystal clear and gave off a power that could see through one's heart. It was as if it could erase all the dust in the world if it shone on him!
Right when the light from the mirror enveloped Fang Xing's Divine Sense, another three specks of light appeared around him. They were three tiny miniature figures. One of them was Fang Xing who wore a Daoist robe, and he was quiet and inactive with a calm expression. The other was Fang Xing who wore a Kasaya, and he had a dignified appearance and a benevolent expression. The last one was Fang Xing who had three heads and six arms, and he had a ferocious expression and a terrifying ferocious aura. They surrounded Fang Xing and muttered something that was unrelated to each other. But in the end, their voices grew louder and louder, and in the end, they merged into one and were extremely clear!
"Wake up!"
With a loud bang, Fang Xing's mind flashed, and he suddenly woke up. "No, this is a devil's hindrance!"
"The current me, looking at the past me, is naturally full of flaws, because I'm stronger than before …"
"The so-called Life Severing, to a certain extent, is to shatter my past self and cultivate my current self …"
"The more I look at the past, the more I feel that I'm lucky to have come this far, and the more I want to stop moving forward!"
"However, all of this is just a devil's hindrance. I can come this far not because I'm lucky …"
"… but because I have this ability!"
All kinds of thoughts floated in his mind, and Fang Xing couldn't help but laugh out loud. In his laughter, there was a hint of mockery. Because he had weathered through all the storms along the way, and now he was almost trapped in his own devil's hindrance. Fortunately, his Taoist heart was firm, and he wasn't taken advantage of by the devil in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the will to fight, and he would be lost in his own confusion …
In Taoism, this was the devil in one's heart!
The devil in one's heart couldn't be understood by ordinary people. It was a real existence!
In fact, it was the confusion, loss, dejection, and all the other negative emotions in one's heart!
If one accidentally fell into it, they would never be able to escape. To sever the devil in one's heart, one could only rely on a firm and stable Taoist heart!
Those three miniature versions of himself were the three protective minds that appeared when he cultivated the three scrolls of the Heavenly Tomes in the Immortal Realm and comprehended the Taoist heart. As long as he had the protection of these three minds, his Taoist heart would be free of impurities, and he would be able to move forward boldly without worry …
Realizing this, his heart trembled, and he quickly controlled the Heavenly Will Sword light to slash at the sixth fate. He wasn't sad, but happy, because he knew that encountering the devil in one's heart wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Because the appearance of the devil in one's heart meant that he was lost, and the reason for this loss could only mean that he had obtained great power …
The stronger the power, the easier it was to get lost. Because of this, the existence of the Taoist heart was needed!
Back in the Immortal Realm, he cultivated the three scrolls of the Heavenly Tomes passed down by the Immortal King Taixu, and comprehended the Taoist heart, which played a great role in this moment!
"Sixth fate, open for me!"
Rumble rumble rumble …
At this time, Fang Xing no longer had his own phantom in front of him. The phantom was actually just a catalyst to evoke the devil in his heart. Now that he had seen through the devil in his heart, the phantom also disappeared. The fate was still quietly floating there, unchanging in the void. After his Heavenly Will Sword light destroyed the fate, the chains broke, and the bindings lessened. Some kind of door was already opening for him, quietly opening with an indescribable change …
At this time, some kind of change in the nomological laws within his Realm of Consciousness was gradually appearing.
As he consecutively destroyed the six fates, the Realm of Consciousness also seemed to shake slightly six times. Deep in the Nine Heavens, the nebula was torn apart, and six openings appeared one after another, then disappeared. It was like someone had thrown a stone into a calm lake, causing ripples to appear, and then everything returned to normal. However, as the six openings gradually appeared, a strange power would surge in from the outside world with each opening. It was like a quiet and sealed room was constantly being torn open, and coming into contact with the outside world!
It was also like a powerful child being sheltered by his father, finally beginning to explore the unfathomable Jianghu …
This seemingly light probing caused an indescribable change to occur in this Realm of Consciousness!
The river water began to flow gently …
The breeze began to swirl between the heavens and the earth …
And the trees began to sway in the breeze, causing their green shadows to sway …
Everything in the Realm of Consciousness began to connect with each other, and as they came into contact with each other, all kinds of changes occurred as a matter of course. The Pilgrimage Mountain that was planted in the Realm of Consciousness when he was a Gold Core, the Dragon Pearl of the Azure Sea, the ninth meridian gifted to him by the Dragon Lady, the Fusang Wood gifted to him by Uncle Gen, the Samadhi True Fire from the Mysterious Coffin Decapitation Mural, the Golden Seed obtained from cultivating the Great Sword Demon Technique, and the stars that filled the sky, as well as the living spirit imprint formed by the Myriad Spirit Pill. All five elements were present, and all spirits were present, mutually reinforcing and restraining each other …
The world was like a furnace, and at this moment, it began to change, and began to refine a world full of vitality!
"Haha, so, so that's how it is …"
As for Fang Xing, who was experiencing all of this, his heart lit up, and he couldn't help but laugh wildly.
"They, have inherited the Immortal Instinct, and have comprehended the Immortal Instinct …"
"And I, after severing nine fates, will awaken all the Immortal Instincts through this Realm of Consciousness …"
