Having just finished negotiating a business deal with the Undying Mountain lineage of the Demonic Path, Xiao Chan'er arrived outside the quiet room where Wang Yu was in seclusion and reported softly.
"Palace Master, the people from Undying Mountain have ordered a batch of Demon Realm Fruits and sent over a cooperation agreement. Here are the details; please review them."
After breaking through to the seventh level of the Dao Integration Realm, Wang Yu emerged from seclusion.
During this period, he has been consolidating his realm. As for the Demon Realm Tree, too many have grown in his internal cave, and a batch have been transplanted and planted in the Blood Sea of the Blood Realm as one of the special products for managing the Demon Palace.
The time for the results has arrived, and the cultivation is still expanding. This precious item, which can still improve the cultivation level of cultivators at this stage, has extremely high value at any time.
On a whim, he let the little cicada in.
Wang Yu took the agreement, gently stroked his cheek, and said helplessly, "When there are no outsiders, there's no need to be so polite. You can be a little more unrestrained."
Xiao Chan'er blushed and lowered her head.
"No, as the Grand Steward of the Demon Palace, I must set an example and uphold the rules of the Demon Palace. Otherwise, wouldn't I be giving others an excuse to attack and annihilate me?"
"There are no outsiders here."
Little Cicada hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
"We can't let this become a habit. Palace Master, please review the cooperation agreement first."
Her personality was clearly developed through her understanding of Wang Yu.
As for who coveted her position, the demon soldiers and the demon cultivators who later joined her hadn't figured out the situation and didn't dare to do so at all, so Xueyu was the only "talent" among them.
But Xueyu, this fox spirit, has absolutely no sense of shrewdness.
She was merely using Wang Yu's favor to display her "high status," and it was more of a playful act. The real influence on Tantai Chan's decisions came from Wang Yu himself.
Because of her benevolent nature, Xiao Chan'er was well aware of this.
She was never Wang Yu's best choice; she only had the advantage of being in the first place, just like she did back in the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, where she also had the advantage but didn't seize it.
This time, she's determined to play a role in other areas.
To gain Wang Yu's approval.
Only then can I feel at ease!
On the other side.
Wang Yu examined the agreement in his hand. The Undying Mountain was one of the nine branches of the demonic path, and its signature technique was called the "Undying Restriction Technique," a method for cultivating a unique physical body.
In his early years, when he was in the Demon Refining Domain, he obtained it by exchanging a large number of insect corpses. After comprehending it, he only dabbled in its cultivation.
Now, the core mysteries of the Undying Law Restriction will become the foundation of his power of fusion of flesh and blood particles, as if it were tailor-made for him, fitting him perfectly.
There must be some secrets he is unaware of.
The cooperation agreement.
In addition to trading in Demon Realm Fruits every hundred years or so, he also ordered a large number of Demon Soul-attribute spiritual materials, which is also one of his strengths.
Then came an invitation.
Knowing that Wang Yu had also cultivated body refinement to an extremely high level, the Undying Mountain invited him to participate in the "Life and Death Realm" trial, which takes place every three thousand years.
This Realm of Life and Death was drawn from an unknown region of the Cosmic Sea by the progenitor of the Undying Mountain and merged into the very foundation of the Undying Mountain. It is said to be a sacred place for those who cultivate the body.
Over the years, a well-established utilization mechanism has been developed.
Wang Yu was invited to give it a try.
There must be other purposes, but they were not mentioned in the letter. After thinking for a moment, I said, "I can agree to the deal. As for the subsequent invitations, please decline them for me for now and say that you are busy. If they insist on inviting me, then I will accept them."
Xiao Chan'er was a little puzzled by what she heard, but she still nodded in agreement.
This action by Wang Yu.
It was nothing more than a test. He had seen the opportunity in the Realm of Life and Death on the Immortal Palace Token. The so-called once every three thousand years was just a rule of the Undying Mountain. In reality, one could enter at any time.
He just felt that now was not the right time.
Now his cultivation has broken through.
With a large amount of resources at his disposal, enough for him to cultivate to the Mahayana stage, or even take two or three more steps forward, it would be reasonable to consume all the resources before venturing out to seek opportunities.
Therefore, the Trial of the Realm of Birth and Death can wait.
His next step is to go to the Lion Camel Realm to complete the lineage of the Mind Path and develop the secret method of mental power. The relationship between Buddhist practitioners and demonic practitioners may seem like they are at odds, but in reality they have a lot of cooperation in secret.
The safety level is relatively high. We can use this time to seek out eminent monks and powerful figures while quietly absorbing the resources at hand. The Trial of the Realm of Birth and Death can be postponed until later.
Secondly, they also had the idea of finding the person.
He hadn't forgotten that Jin Miaoshan had entered the Lion Camel Realm. She and Yu Tangtang had been spending a lot of time together, so it was a good opportunity to ask her about Tangtang's secrets. Wang Yu believed that with his advanced cultivation, he should be qualified to explore them clearly.
If possible, it would be best to bring them to live with you.
As for the cooperation between the demonic path and Buddhist cultivation, it is actually very simple. Demonic cultivation techniques can easily cause those who go astray and become possessed by demons, leading to their minds being clouded by demonic thoughts, losing their rationality, and committing massacres!
At this point, the demonic path would capture them and throw them into the Lion Camel Realm, where Buddhist monks would use the secret method of "laying down the butcher's knife" to directly convert them from the heart.
To become a golden-bodied Arhat, a Dharma protector king, and so on.
It can be considered a way to make use of waste. Over time, a close cooperation naturally formed. It is said that before Yin Chahuang reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, he cultivated his own Great Dao as a high monk in the Lion Camel Realm.
Nothing major happened. He just needs to be careful not to be truly converted by Yishou. He doesn't want to become some kind of Buddhist monk who is detached from worldly desires.
therefore.
After his breakthrough in cultivation, Wang Yu is patiently studying the "Six Desires Heavenly Art". The "Supreme Forgetfulness of Emotions" state of mind achieved through this method can help him make another breakthrough in his spiritual realm.
Breaking through from the "Supreme Goodness Realm" to the "Pure Nirvana Realm" is not a problem!
The ancient spiritual path itself only has seven realms. The "Pure Nirvana Realm" is the penultimate realm, and the only one above it is the "Heavenly Heart Realm".
With this level of mental state, his safety will be further enhanced.
The only ones who could convert him, besides the renowned [Buddha Light Immortal], would be a Tribulation Transcending stage Buddhist cultivator, who would also be unable to forcibly distort his mind.
The cultivation of the Six Desires Heavenly Art seemed to be specially crafted for him; even without placing it in the inventory, his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.
This truly allowed Wang Yu to experience the joy of being a genius.
He suspected it was related to his solid spiritual foundation, after all, he had mastered the Heart Sutra, which is so difficult to practice.
Furthermore, he had mastered the laws of the Six Desires Heaven, making it easy for him to arouse desire. He could then use the secret technique of severing emotional ties to completely eliminate all desires.
By repeating this process continuously, one can make their mind increasingly pure and serene.
Until one reaches a profound state of "supreme freedom from desires and tranquility without action".
At that time.
The cultivation technique automatically reached perfection, which also propelled him to break through to the "Pure Nirvana Realm" of spiritual cultivation. The mental energy in his Heart Lake space would also surge, allowing him to use it more recklessly.
Before heading to the Lion Camel Realm, one must reach the perfect level of the Six Desires Heavenly Technique.
After thinking for a long time.
Wang Yu first put down the "Tai Xuan Wu Shi Jing" from the tenfold accumulation column, and then raised the "Liu Yu Tian Gong" up. The placement column can indeed "create something from nothing" and seize the immortal spiritual energy.
However, the speed of cultivating the [Tai Xuan Immortal Embryo] is slower than a tortoise crawling, taking at least five hundred years. Wang Yu doesn't mind taking that much time.
If the already accomplished Six Desires Heavenly Skill is brought to perfection, it should only take a few years to achieve, which is not a delay.
And so, several months later.
While Wang Yu was cultivating the Six Desires Heaven Technique, he also sent people to investigate information about an old friend.
These were the group of geniuses he had met back in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Although almost none of them could keep up with Wang Yu's level, they were still top-tier geniuses.
It had a positive effect on his normal visit to the Lion Camel Kingdom.
The person he seeks.
He is "Eight-Armed Vajra - Bai Chengfeng", with the Dharma name "Tianlong". He is the reincarnation of a Buddhist disciple from Mount Ling. Because he admires sword immortals and longs to ride a sword into the azure sky, he has the free and unrestrained spirit to roam the world. Therefore, he gave himself the secular name Chengfeng.
He was, in fact, a prodigy and genius in the Buddhist path of body refinement.
He cultivates the [Mingwang Suppressing Prison Body], which combines immortal techniques and the essence of body refinement. He cultivates the Dharma Body lineage, not just the physical body.
Given the past extradition connection, hiring someone as a tour guide shouldn't be a problem, and Wang Yu will also contribute resources as a fee.
With the Blood Sea Demon Palace assisting him, he no longer needed to personally go out and waste his cultivation time. Finding people in the vast Immortal Realm was relatively simple.
The Buddhist sect has relatively few personnel in the Celestial Palace, mainly assigned to the [Merit and Fortune Department] and [Cause and Reincarnation Department] of the Eight Departments, which Wang Yu has hardly ever had any contact with.
However, the resources issued by the Celestial Palace Order each year are managed by the Department of Merit and Prosperity, a very lucrative department that also has the function of allocating merits.
It allows for deep access to the innate merit treasure, the Exquisite Immortal-Stabilizing Ruler, which meticulously divides human merit into human merit and even heavenly merit. This thing is extremely convenient for cultivating the "Golden Body" lineage of supernatural powers.
As for the Department of Karma and Reincarnation, it is responsible for guiding the reincarnation of cultivators' true spirits, bringing back the reincarnated human beings who have fallen to the immortal path so that they can continue to serve the human race.
There are even wondrous reincarnations where in a past life you were the master and I was the disciple, and you guided me into the path; in this life I am the master and you are the disciple, and I will guide you into the path. These are all perfectly in line with the title of this book.
This department has a very demanding job, requiring people to travel all over the universe to find the reincarnation of the true spirit. It is also the department with the most human touch.
Although they do not wield overwhelming power, they are respected by everyone. Therefore, although Buddhist monks themselves are inconspicuous, they play a very important role in the celestial palace.
The people of the Blood Sea Demon Palace searched for several months.
Finally, they found Bai Chengfeng in the Merit and Virtue Department. He had already cultivated to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, opened up a blessed land within his body, and was cultivating at a very fast pace.
However, when they first met, he was already at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
Having reached this level after hundreds of years, from Wang Yu's perspective, it can only be described as mediocre!
He invited them in the name of "Wei Wuxian, the patriarch of the Wei family".
Wang Yu also went out, and the meeting place was set in the first immortal city of the True Spirit Realm, [Xuantian City], which is almost the most prosperous place in the vast peak of the Nine Realms.
After all, it's located right below the Thirty-Three Heavens, so it would be difficult for it not to be prosperous.
Several days later.
Xuantian City, Suzhaifang.
A tall, bald giant, about ten feet high, with a straight right-fastening robe and handsome features, walked in. He immediately spotted Wang Yu, who had already arrived.
His eyes lit up, and he called out from afar.
"Brother Wuxian, it's been many years, you're still as dashing as ever!"
Wang Yu raised his eyes, looked Bai Chengfeng up and down, and immediately curled his lips: "Master Tianlong, your change is too great. Back then you were a handsome young man... how did you become such a big guy?"
Wang Yu was quite surprised by this "muscle Nezha".
The latter, however, adopted a serious expression and said indignantly.
"It's all because of those bald monks from the Mingwang lineage. I told them I'd arrange a hundred Mingwang consorts and Heavenly Demonesses for me, but not one of them was willing. They insisted I cultivate the Prison-Suppressing Body and follow the path of Ksitigarbha."
"Look at me now, I've trained to this level. If it weren't for Brother Wuxian's invitation, I wouldn't dare to go out, lest I be laughed at by acquaintances."
Wang Yu: "..."
Buddhist practitioners naturally have different lineages, and although they all belong to the [Buddha Light Immortal], the intensity of their competition is not much less than that of the demonic path.
The Mingwang lineage cultivates Dharma bodies of the Lesser Yang and Pure Yang attributes. The Mingwang Consort and the Heavenly Demoness are both evil beings that absorb Yang energy. The former can be used and can transform evil into good, making her a kind of guardian deity.
The Heavenly Demoness is a pure demon; she can only be looked at but not used.
The demonic dance tempts desires; as long as one can remain unmoved, without thoughts, and without losing one's mind, one has entered the path. With long-term practice, one can attain the Dharma body of a different zodiac sign of a Vidyaraja.
Among those of the same level, he is one of the few who can rival a traditional body cultivator, and his strength is quite formidable.
The cultivation process goes against one's nature.
I've heard that you also need to take aphrodisiacs to stimulate your desires, and the training is extremely rigorous.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu couldn't help but show a look of pity.
"That does sound pretty bad."
Bai Chengfeng sighed deeply and looked around again.
"It's been years. Why did you choose this vegetarian restaurant? There's no meat here, let alone alcohol. Come on, let's go somewhere else."
Wang Yu: "...hesitating!"
They changed to a place called "Xiangzhen Qibaolou" and Bai Chengfeng ate meat and drank wine in large gulps, as if he had been holding back for too long, and did not follow any rules.
If this weren't outside the realm of demonic cultivation, he probably would have ordered eighty or ninety wine-serving fairies. After catching up, Wang Yu gradually revealed his purpose: to inquire about the method of obtaining the Buddhist spiritual path inheritance.
When this topic came up, Bai Chengfeng became much more cautious in his wording.
“In principle, unless you join the Buddhist sect, it is difficult to obtain the corresponding secret techniques. However, since Brother Wuxian has come to me, he must not want to go through the normal channels.”
"That's not entirely true."
"I understand. Offering suggestions is no problem. But I wonder how accomplished you are in the Way of the Mind?"
"I have already attained the Samadhi of this Way."
"That makes things easier. We can visit those Buddhist temples that are proficient in spiritual matters under the guise of discussing the Tao. We can then set a stake, and if we win, we can achieve our goal."
Wang Yu's eyes darted around, and he continued.
"What if the request is fundamental to the Buddhist temple?"
"—Fame!"
Bai Chengfeng picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp.
"If you, fellow Daoist, can take down a few more Buddhist temples, and out of pride, bring up the core inheritance as a wager in the debate, then it will have to work out, no matter what. Of course... this method is dangerous. Can your background withstand the pressure?"
"It should be possible."
Having said all that, Wang Yu already had an idea.
He didn't mention it again, but instead spent three days and three nights drinking with Bai Chengfeng, and asked him to be his "guide" so that they could go and find out which Buddhist temple had a good lineage.
It was a very precise positioning, but Bai Chengfeng would likely face considerable pressure afterward. Therefore, Wang Yu raised the reward even further, using Yin-Yang Qi Pills as provisions.
In this way, it does not betray his willingness to act as a guide.
This agreement was made.
Several days passed before he returned to the Blood Realm. As for his confidence in winning the Wheel Path, to be honest, even with his sophistry, he couldn't guarantee victory in every head-on confrontation.
This requires a bit of strategy.
He planned to use his spiritual realm as a gamble, hoping to be converted by Buddhist monks. If he failed, he would join the Buddhist order and lose himself.
Success would prove that his spiritual attainments are even higher.
The lineage of the Buddhist temple has been passed down!
It was a risky move, but Wang Yu was quite confident in himself. In just three years, thanks to the effect of the tenfold accumulation column, he achieved great success.
Wang Yu successfully completed the Six Desires Heaven Technique.
Cultivate a supreme state of mind where you are detached from worldly desires!
At the same time, the spiritual breakthrough officially began. (End of Chapter)
