Chapter 253 Thinking

Gazing at the extremely fanatical Duanri and the other seven people in the Netherworld, Luo Xuanyi felt an extremely itchy feeling all over her body for the first time. She wanted to cover her ears and close her eyes and pretend that she didn't hear anything.

Even when she pretended to be righteous in front of others, she never felt so uncomfortable. This is what the book calls "shame".

She walked on the grass for a while with her arms folded, peach blossoms gently falling on her shoulders, and Luo Xuanyi finally adjusted her mentality.

No matter what, at least Jiang Zhibin... Duanri completed the mission given to him by Luo Xuanyi, and successfully transformed the first batch of living souls of cultivators she invested into strange cultivators to practice "Yintian Wutu Volume".

The cloudy sky was filled with five turbidities, and evil thoughts were frequent. The faith fire that this strange cultivation method ignited in them would continuously provide Luo Xuanyi with evil thoughts as they practiced. As long as there were enough people practicing, Luo Xuanyi would not have to worry about collecting evil thoughts.

Of course, now only the meager evil thoughts produced by Duanri were offered up, and Luo Xuanyi could hardly feel any increase.

But to be honest, it was a bit exaggerated that the evil thoughts offered by the fanatical faith of Duan Ridan, a cunning cultivator who had not yet broken through the early stage of the Hungry Ghost Realm, could be sensed in Luo Xuanyi's vast sea of consciousness.

Therefore, although Luo Xuanyi had the thought of beating Duanri to death, she decided to keep him to continue preaching.

Luo Xuanyi resisted the urge to turn her head and looked carefully into the Netherworld.

The full moon had already passed through the sky, leaving only a hazy glow. Before the stone tablet, Duanri was diligently explaining the fundamentals of Gui Cultivation. The seven men had already stripped off their Zang Yaozong robes and sat cross-legged on the ground in plain clothes, their heads tilted upwards as they listened.

"The great god created the Way of Deception and divided it into six realms: the Hungry Ghost Realm, the Resentful Ghost Realm, the Red Ghost Realm, the Evil Ghost Realm, the Ghost Heart Realm, and the Ghost King Realm. Cultivation is based on the energy of death..."

"Oh!" The seven people looked at each other in admiration.

Not me, I'm not.

Luo Xuanyi decisively cut off the sensation. It would be better not to watch or listen, and let them develop on their own.

But at this moment, a clear evil thought rushed into Luo Xuanyi's sea of consciousness. After the original ghost fire absorbed this evil thought, it shook slightly, and the third magical embryo held on the branch of the fire tree actually moved slightly, visible to the naked eye, and the first bud sprouted.

Luo Xuanyi immediately perked up, concentrating on recording the unusual movements of the third magical power. However, it only lasted for a moment, and once the evil thoughts were completely absorbed, the third magical power's budding flesh stopped moving.

From the feedback of the original ghost fire, Luo Xuanyi could sense that this was an extremely pure evil thought, even comparable to the pure murderous intent produced by Dongqi technology.

At first, she didn't understand the principle behind the birth of evil thoughts in the "Yin Tian Wu Muddy Volume". After all, practicing this volume was a devotion to Luo Xuanyi, who established herself on the "Art of All Evils Paying Homage to Ghosts". It seemed that there was no soil for the breeding of evil thoughts.

Sensing this evil thought at this moment and recalling Duan Ri's fanaticism, she finally realized: this evil thought came from distorted worship, or in other words, it was a distortion of worship.

The "Yin Tian Wu Muddy Volume" distorts human nature. It eliminates all the propriety, righteousness, integrity, and even the seven emotions and six desires that are not conducive to cultivation, and becomes the most refined trickster to embark on the tricky path.

However, eliminating everything also made it impossible for the Gui cultivators to sense the Dao. After all, the Dao existed between heaven and earth, and those without a heart could not understand it. Therefore, they had to find a single thing as a symbol of the Dao, and worship was born.

Luo Xuanyi didn't know whether "The Art of Exorcising All Evils and Demons" and "The Five Turbid Volumes of Yintian" were created by the same person, but these two methods of cultivation did constitute an excellent cultivation system: "The Five Turbid Volumes of Yintian" was cultivated with the fire of faith generated by believing in "The Art of Exorcising All Evils and Demons", while "The Art of Exorcising All Evils and Demons" could absorb evil thoughts from "The Five Turbid Volumes of Yintian", and perhaps, it could even recruit believers into its ranks.

However, it is impossible to worship a monk as a follower of the Tao. Monks are not the Tao; they have their own desires and limitations, which believers cannot accept.

The monks that believers imagine in their hearts will only become taller and more omnipotent, just like the truth of heaven, high above, ethereal and ruthless, and worthy of their lifelong pursuit and exploration.

It seems incredibly wonderful, but the more fervent the followers of "The Five Turbid Scrolls of Cloudy Sky" are, the faster their cultivation progresses. What if one day the believers discover that the gods they pursue are actually on par with them?

Fanatical believers will not think that the gods have collapsed, they will only say: You are not my God.

Believers have already twisted God in their hearts in the direction they want, and by then, it is no longer possible to control the extremely fanatical believers.

Luo Xuanyi lightly tapped the outline of the Youdu Realm of the physical body with her finger. With just a light touch of her pale index finger, she was able to completely cover the figures of Duanri and the other seven people.

This enthusiasm was a double-edged sword. If used well, these believers would become her fingers and blades in the future. Luo Xuanyi could even choose to find them a body, allowing them to walk in this world shrouded by the Heavenly Dao just like her.

Alternatively, Luo Xuanyi could choose not to use these people, not to trust them. She could simply keep them in the Netherworld, like meat raised on a farm, or like materials cultivated in the original valley path opened up by Zang Yaozong, and let them continuously supply evil thoughts.

Unlike other cultivators, Luo Xuanyi possessed her own world. Within the Netherworld, she was a veritable deity. With a single thought, she could scatter their souls, preventing them from even entering the cycle of reincarnation, and causing them to vanish into the world.

If you want to use them to create organizations like Zang Yaozong and Zhishumen in this world, then you must instill in them the concept of "helping God" in order to continue to control them; but if you don't use them, just display the boundless divine power and majesty in front of the believers and let them worship you.

Luo Xuanyi tapped her fingers lightly, and finally withdrew her hand.

Don't rush into making decisions.
