Chapter 136: Taking In A Disciple, Mo Luantian
Should he take this senior as his master?
This senior seemed to be very powerful. If he refused, would he be killed?
Mo Luantian was very conflicted.
He had never heard of Buddhism. Even though this senior seemed to be extremely powerful, how powerful could an unknown force or race be?
The upper limit was definitely not high.
Thinking back to his ancient demon inheritance, he considered refusing.
The Ancient Demon was an extremely powerful existence.
Legend had it that the Ancient Demon once suppressed the human race.
This senior looked extremely powerful but, no matter how powerful he was, the Ancient Demon was stronger, right?
In the future, he would become the Ancient Demon and rule the heavenly demon tribe.
"Senior, please forgive me. As a demon, I, Mo Luantian, am focused on cultivating the inheritance of the demon race and have no interest in cultivating other techniques!"
Mo Luantian gritted his teeth and said.
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows, and was a little surprised. He had made such a grand and awe-inspiring entrance, but this kid was actually not willing to acknowledge him as his master?
He was truly walking a narrow path.
"Young man, us meeting itself is fate. This venerable one can see that you possess some measure of wisdom, so I made an exception to accept you as my disciple."
"The demonic path has no future. Young man, don't walk a narrow path."
Chu Xuan was not flustered at all. He had become very skilled at deceiving people.
The reason why Mo Luantian did not acknowledge him as his master was because he felt that Buddhism was a faction or race with no future.
On top of that, he possessed the inheritance of the Ancient Demon, so he believed his own future to be boundless.
"The nine zones are just a desolate corner of the myriad realms. How can you understand how vast the universe is when you only live in a small corner of it? The Ancient Demon of your demon race was just an average character in the myriad realms. How could someone like that compare to me?"
"Buddhism is the true path. This is where your talent lies. Don't miss out on this opportunity."
Mo Luantian's heart trembled. Myriad realms?
Ancient Demon was only an average existence in the myriad realms?
He was somewhat moved. Could it be that Buddhism was really that powerful?
Was the Ancient Demon really that weak?
"May I ask Senior, what are the myriad realms?"
"The myriad realms are boundless and contain countless experts. Only those who reach the so-called Divine realm of the nine zones have the ability to reach the myriad realms."
"Young man, joining the Buddhist sect is the right path for you. The myriad realms of the heavens is where your true path lies. The tiny Demon Zone and the heavenly demon tribe are just stepping stones."
"The Buddhist Dharma is boundless and merciful. You begrudge the heavenly demon tribe, but no matter how strong you are, you are still a demon. However, what if you become a Buddha? If you turn the demons into Buddhas, you will become the founder of the Buddhist race of the nine zones, and not merely one of the chosen ones of the younger generation of the demon race."
Chu Xuan smiled as he pulled Mo Luantian into his imagined world of grandeur and endless possibilities.
It was self-evident that someone as ambitious as Mo Luantian would want to become an ancestor or forefather of the demon race.
Mo Luantuan's heart trembled. He was captivated.
It all made sense. No matter how strong he was, he was still a descendant of the demon race. At most, he would be a top-notch descendant of the demon race.
However, what if he founded a race?
"Senior, you said that the Buddhist dharma is boundless. How powerful is it?"
Mo Luantian wanted to test whether the Buddhist dharma was stronger or weaker than his ancient demonic power.
If the Buddhist dharma was strong, he would not hesitate and would immediately become a disciple of the Buddhist sect.
However, if it was not as strong as the ancient demonic power…
Chu Xuan waved his hand, and a strand of Buddhist power flew over.
This strand of Buddhist power was only at the second level of the truth realm.
Buddhist dharma had a strong restraining effect on demonic power. Even though it was at the second level of the truth realm, it was more than enough to restrain Mo Luantian's ancient demonic power.
The outcome of this test bore no suspense.
Chu Xuan could not help but sigh. Mo Luantian did not bow his head immediately. It could be seen that he was very confident in his ancient demonic inheritance.
He was also very vigilant.
"This tiny bit of Buddhist power is weaker than your demonic power, but it can defeat your demonic power."
Mo Luantian was full of trepidation. When he sensed that the vast and majestic Buddhist power was only at the second level of the truth realm, he let out a sigh of relief.
The demonic power in his body surged and he directly threw a punch with all of his strength.
Chi!
However, when Mo Luantian's demonic power met the Buddhist power, it made sizzling sounds and started to melt away.
It was completely suppressed.
It was as if it had met its nemesis.
Mo Luantian was shocked. He could sense that this Buddhist power was really only at the second level of the truth realm.
It did not contain any special characteristics either.
In addition, his ancient demonic power was stronger than ordinary demonic power, or even the heavenly demon tribe's demonic power.
Even so, it was suppressed by that tiny bit of Buddhist power.
Had it been any other demonic power, it would have collapsed even faster.
The Buddhist dharma was too powerful.
This was a great opportunity!
Plop!
Mo Luantian was also a decisive person. He immediately knelt down to acknowledge Chu Xuan as his master.
"Disciple Mo Luantian greets Master!"
Dong! Dong! Dong!
"Amitabha, Buddha, good, good!"
Chu Xuan chanted the name of Buddha.
"Since you have joined the Buddhist sect, you should accept its commandment and get rid of the 3,000 strands of vexation!"
"Yes, Master!"
Mo Luantian knelt on the ground respectfully.
Chu Xuan waved his hand and a stream of power was transmitted over. He wiped Mo Luantian's head and all of his hair fell off, revealing a bald head.
As for the other Buddhist precepts and rules, Chu Xuan did not pass them on. Those precepts and rules would be left to Mo Luantian to comprehend on his own from the Buddhist dharma.
He had founded Buddhism in this world, but he would not copy those precepts and rules from his previous world.
However, there were some Buddhist scriptures that were handed over to Mo Luantian and Buddha Nanwu to comprehend on their own.
Since Mo Luantian was now his disciple, Chu Xuan decided to teach him the current Tathagata Sutra from the Three Lives Buddhist scripture.
This Buddhist sutra contained many Buddhist divine techniques, and had been the main cultivation technique of Tathagata.
It was not all taught to Mo Luantian in one go. This fellow was currently cultivating an ancient demonic cultivation technique, so before cultivating the Buddhist sutra, he needed to convert the demonic power into Buddhist power.
This was not a big problem. He would just need to spend a little time on it.
Moreover, Mo Luantian's cultivation would drop to a certain extent.
"I'll pass you the Buddhist dharma now."
Chu Xuan spoke and chose the Vairocana Sutra, the indestructible golden body, and other Buddhist techniques to pass on to Mo Luantian.
Since he was a monk, how could he not have a monk robe and staff?
Chu Xuan quickly refined a monk robe, staff, and an alms bowl, and passed it to Mo Luantian.
"You've just entered the Buddhist sect, and your cultivation is low. I'll pass on the monk robe, staff, and alms bowl to you."
Mo Luantian received the monk robe, staff, and alms bowl. He was shocked. These were actually Heavenly artifacts!
They also had many magical effects that far surpassed ordinary Heavenly artifacts.
This was only the starting point.
Chu Xuan was not surprised by Mo Luantian's reaction at all.
He was satisfied with his accomplishment of refining his first artifacts, which had turned out to be Heavenly artifacts. Moreover, he added many wonderful uses and functions according to his own ideas.
For example, restraining one's aura, concealing treasures, and so on.
After passing on the technique to Mo Luantian, Chu Xuan was still a little worried. After all, Mo Luantian was very ambitious.
Although he had accepted Chu Xuan as his master, he had not sincerely converted to Buddhism, nor did he have any awareness of how to be a monk.
He only cultivated Buddhist cultivation techniques.
This was not acceptable in the long run.
What Chu Xuan needed was a true Buddha.
At that moment, he chanted Buddhist mantras to Mo Luantian, enlightening him onto the path of Buddhism.
In order to create a Buddhist race in this world, he had put in a lot of effort.
As such, he used his identity as Buddha to enlighten Mo Luantian.
As he recited the mantras, mysterious runes floated into the Myriad Heavenly Mirror, enveloping Mo Luantian.
Gradually, Mo Luantian sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands clasped together, his brows lowered, as he too chanted the mantras, and his body began to radiate Buddhist light.
The ancient demonic power in his body was gradually being converted into Buddhist power.
Chapter 137: Trial Mystic Realm, Challenge Oneself
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When all of the demonic power in Mo Luantian's body had been converted into Buddhist power, his cultivation dropped from the third level of the truth realm to the first level of the truth realm.
However, his strength increased rather than decreased.
This was especially when he was facing another member of the demon race, whereby his strength increased exponentially.
"Praise be to Buddha!"
Mo Luantian put his palms together and knelt on the ground.
He had become a devout Buddhist disciple.
"Rise."
Chu Xuan let out a sigh of relief. He had finally brainwashed Mo Luantian… Uh, more accurately, he had successfully converted him.
However, looking at Mo Luantian's current appearance, it seemed that although he possessed the temperament of a monk, for some reason, he also exuded a bit of demonic nature.
Chu Xuan muttered inwardly, 'Could it be that when Mo Luantian had converted, his added words of deception had caused the other party to go astray?'
He hoped that nothing bad would happen.
He would be able to successfully create a storm in the Demon Zone and gather a group of Buddhist believers.
"Your grand goal is to convert the demon race into Buddhas. You have taken the first step in creating the Buddhist race, and have been rewarded with the Buddhist scripture."
The system's reward suddenly arrived.
Chu Xuan was stunned. Even this sort of thing could trigger a reward from the system?
He received the Buddhist scripture.
After the system finished instilling the Buddhist scripture into his mind, Chu Xuan became shocked. This time, he was really going to become a true Buddha.
The Buddhist scripture contained all of the Buddhist scriptures, all the Buddhist techniques, Mahayana scriptures, and so on. This was a complete set.
There were also some Buddhist scriptures that Chu Xuan did not understand and had never heard of.
He selected a few scriptures that were mainly used to help people become good, spread faith, and educate believers. He used the Sagemaster's Halo to inscribe them on a booklet.
He then passed the booklet to Mo Luantian and asked him to use the knowledge within it to spread Buddhism in the Demon Zone and convert believers.
Mo Luantian received the Buddhist scriptures with a devout and burning gaze. He kowtowed again and knelt on the ground.
"You took one of the children of fate of the demon race as your disciple and converted him into a Buddha. You have been rewarded with a lucky mystic realm and a trial mystic realm."
Chu Xuan received another system reward.
Moreover, Chu Xuan noticed that the word "one" had appeared in front of the term "children of fate of the demon race" in the system's description. Did this mean that the demon race had more than one child of fate?
On second thought, it made sense. The demon race was so powerful, so there had to be more than one person who could shoulder the race's fate.
After encouraging Mo Luantian and imprinting the Myriad Heavenly Mirror's mark on his body, Chu Xuan deactivated the Myriad Heavenly Mirror.
He could not wait to receive the reward.
First was the lucky mystic realm. Chu Xuan was already very familiar with this thing.
Seeing that he had obtained another lucky mystic realm, Chu Xuan decided to actually set up this lucky mystic realm.
He had a plan in mind as to where he would set it up.
Next, he received the trial mystic realm.
This was the first time this thing had appeared. From its name, one could already roughly understand what this mystic realm was used for.
Trial!
Chu Xuan examined the description of the trial mystic realm.
"The trial mystic realm can completely replicate its user, allowing them to challenge themselves, through which the user can find their own flaws, defeat oneself, and break through their own limitations."
"The trial mystic realm is filled with all kinds of dangers, experts of various cultivation realms, cultivators that use all kinds of weird and powerful cultivation techniques; where one can fight one on one, or one versus many."
Chu Xuan examined the function of the trial mystic realm, after which he could not help but let out a sigh. As expected of a product of the system, this thing was indeed extraordinary.
Currently, he just happened to be lacking in combat experience. Now that he had the trial mystic realm, he could participate in these trials to his heart's content. He no longer needed to worry about being found lacking in terms of combat experience.
It would also allow Ding Yue and the others to improve themselves in the trial mystic realm. They would be able to hone their combat experience with it.
The trial mystic realm could replicate all of one's abilities. One could challenge oneself, defeat oneself, and find one's weaknesses and strengths. It could truly help with breaking through one's limits.
There were also all kinds of dangerous settings, as well as all kinds of experts of all realms. One-on-one combat trials could be carried out, or one-on-many combat trials.
Basically, there were all kinds of dangerous situations and trials that could be encountered in the trial mystic realm.
One could even simulate corresponding trial scenarios according to the trial-taker's wishes.
More importantly, one would not really be injured or killed in the trial mystic realm.
That being said, injuries suffered while inside the trial mystic realm would behave just like injuries in real life. It would affect one's ability to display one's strength and ability.
If one died in the trial, one would be immediately ejected from the trial mystic realm.
Aside from that, the trial mystic realm could be used to invite another to battle. One could truly fight with one's bare hands or weapons to see who was the strongest, and who would be able to survive until the end.
Chu Xuan took out the trial mystic realm.
A fist-sized jade bead that was full of Dao aura appeared in his hand. At a glance, it was as if he could see all sorts of trial scenarios within the jade bead.
This was the trial mystic realm that had not been opened.
Chu Xuan thought about it and decided to place the trial mystic realm in the pocket dimension.
The universe space was limited and was not a suitable place for the trial mystic realm. Placing it inside the pocket dimension was the best solution.
He then set up the trial mystic realm.
Chu Xuan could not wait to enter the trial to test his strength and increase his combat experience.
His body was still sitting there in the small courtyard, but his consciousness had already entered the trial mystic realm.
He did not choose to enter directly with his body.
He selected the one-on-one battle trial option.
An ordinary ninth level Supreme realm expert would be instantly killed by him with a single punch!
He gradually increased the strength of the ninth-level Supreme realm expert he was fighting. In the end, the strongest strength that could be displayed by the trial mystic realm that matched Chu Xuan's cultivation was that of a peak ninth-level Supreme realm expert.
The battle did not last for long. In about a minute, Chu Xuan killed his opponent.
"So my strength is indeed invincible in the same realm. In the history of the nine zones, the strongest ninth-level Supreme realm expert couldn't even last a minute against me."
Chu Xuan's ego suddenly felt a bit inflated.
He chose the next trial level; his opponent was now a first-level Heaven realm expert.
It was just an ordinary first-level Heaven realm expert. Chu Xuan wanted to see if he could bridge the realm difference and defeat this first-level Heaven realm cultivator.
One had to know that the Supreme realm and the Heaven realm were separated by a giant natural chasm.
The gap between them was much larger than the gap between the truth realm and the Emperor realm.
The battle soon commenced.
Chu Xuan used all kinds of secret techniques and abilities.
The battle lasted for an hour before Chu Xuan used the time illusion technique to heavily injure his opponent.
The price for that was that he was killed.
The gap between him and the Heaven realm was too big. He, the strongest ninth-level Supreme realm cultivator in history, was unable to bridge realms and kill a first-level Heaven realm expert.
Next, Chu Xuan chose to challenge himself.
He wanted to break through the current limits of his strength and find out what his own shortcomings were, as well as weaknesses he had in battle.
In the battle with the Heaven realm expert, Chu Xuan had found that although he had many divine abilities and secret techniques, during certain moments, he was unable to use them properly.
He was unable to unleash his full power in combat.
He felt that if he broke through his current limits, he would have a chance of defeating an ordinary first-level Heaven realm expert.
For the next thre
e days, Chu Xuan challenged himself inside the trial mystic realm.
Every time he fought, he would discover more flaws and fix them before his next battle.
However, his clone would also do the same. As such, it was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to break through his limits if he wanted to defeat his clone.
Ten days…
Chu Xuan spent ten days immersing himself in battle. He finally unleashed his strongest attack and successfully killed his clone.
The moment he broke through, Chu Xuan suddenly had an epiphany.
His strength had stepped into a new realm.
Chapter 138: Ding Yue, Master, Have I Understood Correctly?
After defeating his clone, Chu Xuan tried to challenge an ordinary first-level Heaven realm expert.
The battle lasted half an hour.
Chu Xuan unleashed his full power and finally killed the Heaven realm martial artist.
The price was that he had also suffered heavy injuries.
"I should have broken the record by becoming the first Supreme realm cultivator to kill a Heaven realm cultivator."
Chu Xuan was extremely excited.
He had gained a new understanding of his own strength.
After realizing how powerful a Heaven realm entity was, Chu Xuan could not help but feel lucky. Back then, Mo Tuo's soul had been heavily injured and had fallen from the Heaven realm.
If it had not, Chu Xuan would not have been able to suppress him!
It was also because Mo Tuo's soul had been weakened by the long period of hibernation and inactivity, which resulted in the strength of his soul becoming weaker.
That was why Mo Tuo was easily suppressed by the Heaven Sealing forbidden technique.
Following that, Chu Xuan went through all kinds of trials in the trial mystic realm to increase his ability and adaptability in dealing with all kinds of dangers, attacks, and situations.
This was all done to increase his combat experience.
After all, up until now, Chu Xuan had never really fought anyone.
His combat experience was extremely lacking.
A month later, Chu Xuan felt elated. He had cleared all sorts of dangerous situations and challenges inside the trial mystic realm.
It was not an exaggeration to say that his combat experience was definitely top-notch now.
"You did not leave seclusion, but cleared all sorts of dangerous situations and challenges in the trial mystic realm. Thanks to your rich combat experience, you have been rewarded with the Myriad Battle Insights."
He had actually triggered the system's reward.
Chu Xuan was slightly surprised, but chose to receive the reward anyway.
The Myriad Battle Insight was a type of battle consciousness. It was as if he was born with it. He now had the ability to deal with all kinds of battle situations and had an extremely strong combat awareness.
Chu Xuan felt his combat experience soar once again. It was not an exaggeration to say that no one could compare to him in terms of combat experience and battle awareness.
After comprehending the Myriad Battle Insights, Chu Xuan no longer needed to go into the trial mystic realms. He was now the person who knew how best to fight in the world.
"No one knows how to fight better than me!"
1
Chu Xuan let out a sigh.
After opening the trial mystic realm, a new area had suddenly appeared in the pocket dimension. It was filled with mystery and surrounded by Dao rhythm.
He summoned Ding Yue, Wang Luo, and Su Xian'er over.
"Your master has opened a trial mystic realm. You can go to the trial mystic realm to increase your combat experience. You can even defeat yourselves and break through your limits."
He briefly introduced the trial mystic realm.
Ding Yue and Wang Luo were overjoyed. After thanking him, they immediately went to the trial mystic realm.
"Mister, since it's possible to invite people to fight in the trial mystic realm, can you force them to accept the challenge?"
Su Xian'er asked cunningly.
After breaking through to the Emperor realm, Su Xian'er's temperament and demeanor had become even more charming.
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows. "What do you want to do?"
"I want to beat that b*stard Ding Yue to death!" Su Xian'er gritted her teeth and spoke.
In the real world, it was impossible to beat Ding Yue to death. However, they could do so in the trial mystic realm.
In any case, they would not actually die.
As such, she could actually beat Ding Yue to death once.
That guy was too despicable.
He dared to make a wooden figurine next to her. Every time he opened his eyes, he would look in her direction, trying his very best to ignore her presence..
He wanted to test his Sword Dao realm.
After breaking through the first stage of the way of the sword, he now wanted to know if it was stable and if he was improving.
He did so by seeing if his first glance was on Su Xian'er or the wooden figurine.
Obviously, seven out of ten times, his eyes sought out Su Xian'er.
This meant that his Sword Dao realm was not stable enough.
He was far from reaching the realm where he had no woman in his heart, and could kill gods with his sword.
He had to continue improving.
Su Xian'er was furious.
Ding Yue, that b*stard, actually used her to temper his state of mind. It was simply too much.
What was even more outrageous was that he even fooled Wang Luo into tempering his state of mind as well. Gradually, Wang Luo was led astray by him…
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth twitched. Ding Yue, that brat, had really been deceivedto the point of absurdity.
He had to deceive him once more. Otherwise, if this continued, it would be easy for him to take things too far.
"Alright, if you want to challenge him, I will make it so that he cannot refuse."
Chu Xuan nodded and agreed.
After Su Xian'er entered the pocket dimension, Chu Xuan called Ding Yue out.
He had to correct him.
"Master!"
Chu Xuan used the Sagemaster's Halo to envelope the courtyard.
"How is your comprehension of the three stages of the way of the sword?"
"Master, I feel that I have already broken through the second stage of the way of the sword and am in the process of consolidating it."
Ding Yue said excitedly, "Master, I believe that I will soon reach the realm where I have no woman in my heart and can kill gods with my sword."
"You have taken the wrong path," Chu Xuan said.
Ding Yue's heart shook. "Master, please explain!"
Since Master said that he had taken the wrong path, then he had most definitely taken the wrong path.
"You avoid women, rebuff women, and don't allow them to get close to you. This has created a barrier in your heart because you fear that if a woman gets close to you, they will mess up your sword heart."
"Your method of breaking through the three stages of the way of the sword has taken the wrong path."
Ding Yue was stunned. He recalled the situation at the Bai Sheng Mountain ruin. Did he not rebuff Han Yingmeng and keep her from getting close to him?
This was because he was not confident; he was afraid that she would affect his sword heart.
In the end, he still managed to accomplish it. He did not lose his focus when faced with beautiful women.
So what if they were swaying their hips in front of him?
So what if they were naked?
I did not even spare them a sideways glance.
Chu Xuan looked at Ding Yue thoughtfully and said, "Seeing a woman as a woman, but also not seeing a woman as the focus. There is a woman around you, but there is no woman in your heart. This is the correct realm."
As he spoke, he called Su Xian'er out.
"Look, is she a woman?"
Ding Yue raised his head to look.
Su Xian'er was dressed as a servant and had a pretty face. He could tell from a glance that she was absolutely stunningly beautiful.
"She's a woman."
"Look again. Is she still a woman?"
Ding Yue: "…"
Su Xian'er: "…"
Ding Yue did not know how to answer Chu Xuan's question.
She was clearly a woman. How could she not be a woman?
He was very confused. He always felt that his master's words contained profound truth, but he also felt that he was too stupid to comprehend it.
Chu Xuan raised his hand and pointed beyond the courtyard.
Looking from here to the distance, one could see that there was a hazy mountain peak in the distance.
"Look, is that a mountain?"
"Yes."
"Look again, is that still a mountain?"
Ding Yue was stunned. That was a mountain. However, since Master had asked this question, there had to be some sort of deeper meaning behind the question. His answer had been "mountain".Was my answer not correct?
He did not know how to answer.
Su Xian'er was also stunned. What kind of riddle was Master playing at?
Wang Luo also ran out.
Looking at the mountain in the distance that Chu Xuan was pointing toward, he was also confused.
"To see a mountain as a mountain, to see a mountain as not a mountain, to see a mountain as still a mountain. These were the three realms of enlightenment."
Chu Xuan closed his eyes slightly and said in an unfathomable manner.
"To see a mountain as a mountain, to see a mountain as not a mountain, to see a mountain as still a mountain?"
Ding Yue muttered to himself, 'In other words, he had to see a woman as a woman, see a woman as not a woman, and see a woman as still a woman?'
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth twitched slightly. 'Disciple, you better not go astray again.'
In order to bring you back to the right path, I put in a lot of effort.
"Master, I've understood!"
Ding Yue's eyes suddenly lit up. It was as if he had woken up from an epiphany, and his face was full of joy.
He looked at Su Xian'er.
"You're not a woman!"
"Right, you're not a woman. You're just a wooden figure that I carved."
1
"You are the wooden figure. The wooden figure is you. In my heart, you are not a woman, but you are also a woman!"
"Master,have I understood correctly?"
Chapter 139: Ding Yue Was Once Again Misled
Ding Yue knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Chu Xuan looked at the energetic and spirited Ding Yue, and the corners of his mouth twitched again. He had a feeling that his disciple had been misled again…
Whatever…
In any case, at least he would not go too far now.
Su Xian'er was furious.
"Ding Yue, come, come, come. Let's spar."
Pa!
The long whip shook and wrapped itself around Ding Yue, pulling him into the pocket dimension and directly into the trial mystic realm.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Ding Yue's screams could be heard from the trial mystic realm.
Su Xian'er had already reached the Emperor realm, so Ding Yue was no match.
After all, Su Xian'er's talent was no weaker than his, and she cultivated the Grand Moon Immortal Spell, so her strength was much stronger than that of an ordinary Emperor realm cultivator.
Su Xian 'er could easily defeat ten Emperor realm cultivators like Lao Gui Tai.
"Tell me, what am I?"
"Blockhead!"
"Go to hell!"
"You are not a woman in my eyes!"
"Go to hell!"
"Although you are a woman, in my eyes, you are no different from a blockhead."
"Go to hell!"
"Sister Su, stop hitting me. It will be the same no matter how much you hit me. I have realized that I have reached the realm of seeing women as women and also not as women."
"The next step is to break through to the realm where I have no woman in my heart and can kill gods with my sword."
Ding Yue howled miserably as he muttered, "I believe that, in Master's eyes, you are also a wooden figurine. You are no different from a wooden figurine."
As soon as these words were said, Su Xian'er was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She immediately exploded.
"Go to hell!"
Boom!
Inside the trial mystic realm, Ding Yue really exploded.
"Again!"
She pulled Ding Yue into the trial mystic realm and then killed him again.
"Master, save me! Sister Su is crazy!"
Ding Yue begged for mercy.
He felt that Su Xian'er was extremely terrifying at this moment!
Chu Xuan sighed. Next time, he would not go too far when deceiving his disciple. Ding Yue had gone down the wrong path again. Hopefully Wang Luo would not follow suit.
He could not help but think of Mo Luantian. He hoped that this disciple would not be led astray by him and would become a proper monk instead.
1
Su Xian'er beat Ding Yue to death more than ten times in a row. Only then did her anger subside slightly.
Ding Yue was afraid. For some reason, Su Xian'er had suddenly become so scary. He had to hide for the time being.
"Mister."
Su Xian'er looked at Chu Xuan pitifully. "Do you think I'm a wooden figurine?"
Chu Xuan's mouth twitched and he said seriously, "Don't listen to Ding Yue's nonsense."
"You really don't think I'm a wooden figurine?"
Su Xian'er looked at him suspiciously.
"Ding Yue is a fool. Are you a fool too?" Chu Xuan said. He was in a bad mood.
"Oh, I knew it. That b*stard Ding Yue is too detestable."
Su Xian'er finally let out a sigh of relief.
In the following days, Ding Yue and Wang Luo both entered the trial mystic realm to train. Su Xian'er would also go to the trial mystic realm to train once every day.
However, most of the time, she would stay by Chu Xuan's side every day to sort out information, cook delicious dishes, and play with Chu Pingfan.
Every once in a while, she would drag Ding Yue into the trial mystic realm and give him a beating.
Although Chu Pingfan still looked like an ordinary person, and had not even even reached the mortal realm, the strength of his physical body was comparable to that of a profound realm cultivator.
He had been nurturing his saber.
Every day, he would practice his saber techniques in the universe space. His small face had a determined expression, and his gaze was firm.
He still looked dull and stupid, and not at all like a clever child.
Chu Xuan had been paying attention to his progress in nurturing his saber. Chu Pingfan's body had already developed a special charm.
Ding Yue and Wang Luo had fought several times inside the trial mystic realm.
Each time, Ding Yue had suppressed Wang Luo.
In terms of combat capabilities, Ding Yue was stronger than Wang Luo in terms of both talent and strength.
However, Wang Luo was also extremely strong. Although Ding Yue could suppress him, it was extremely difficult to kill Wang Luo.
Wang Luo had countless medicinal pills.
In the life and death battle trial, Wang Luo relied on the continuous recovery provided by his medicinal pills to almost exhaust Ding Yue.
Even though Ding Yue still managed to defeat Wang Luo in the end, he still paid a heavy price.
Ding Yue's strength and foundation were ultimately stronger than Wang Luo's. Otherwise, given the various medicinal pills that Wang Luo had, it was hard to say who would be the victor.
What was worth mentioning was that, regardless of whether it was Ding Yue, Wang Luo, or Su Xian'er, none of them were able to defeat their own clones.
Every time they challenged themselves, they would be able to find their flaws and make up for them in the next battle.
Their strength was also improving, but they were still unable to defeat their clones, as every time they improved, their clones did as well.
The three of them all believed that it was impossible to defeat their clones and break through their true limits.
The greatest gain from challenging themselves was actually to find their weaknesses and flaws in combat.
Even so, the three of them would challenge themselves once a day.
Buddha Nanwu sat below Chu Xuan and pressed his palms together as he listened to Chu Xuan's Buddhist scriptures.
Chu Xuan passed some of the Buddhist scriptures to Buddha Nanwu, allowing him to cultivate on his own and comprehend new Buddhist dharma divine abilities.
"The Buddhist dharma is boundless. You can comprehend it on your own. Give the trial mystic realm a go. You should also try it out to familiarize yourself with Buddhist dharma divine abilities," Chu Xuan said.
"Yes, Buddha!"
Buddha Nanwu bowed respectfully and entered the pocket dimension.
He used to be a demon, and he cultivated the techniques and secret arts of the demon race.
Now, even though he had become a Buddha, he had never used any of his Buddhist techniques.
It just so happened that he could temper himself in the trial mystic realm.
Both Ding Yue and Wang Luo were very curious about Buddha Nanwu. He possessed a power that they had never heard of before.
Their master said that Buddha Nanwu walked a different Dao from them, even though they were all from the same sect.
Hence, the two of them called Buddha Nanwu "Senior Brother Buddha".
Buddha Nanwu entered the trial mystic realm, and Ding Yue and Wang Luo ran inside to watch. Su Xian'er also went in to watch.
They were very curious about Buddha Nanwu's strength. Just how strong was he?
"Amitabha!"
Buddha Nanwu chanted the name of Buddha.
He pushed his palms forward, and Buddhist light blossomed from within. In an instant, countless palms struck out like an endless torrent, instantly shattering the target of the trial, an eighth-level Heaven realm demon.
"So strong!"
Ding Yue and the other two were shocked.
Su Xian'er could sense Buddha Nanwu's strength. When he attacked, it felt like Heaven's might. From this, she realized that he was a Heaven realm expert.
Buddha Nanwu continued to train in the trial mystic realm. However, Su Xian'er and the other two would not be able to watch the rest of the trials.
Chu Xuan silently watched as Buddha Nanwu underwent the trials. As the trials progressed, he became more and more familiar with the use of Buddhist dharma.
His strength was also increasing.
It was worth mentioning that the Buddha Nanwu's main trial opponents were all simulated demon race experts.
He had chosen to have his opponents simulated as demon race experts.
Was he preparing to return to the Demon Zone and convert the demon race?
After the fight in the Asura Ancient Land ended, he would allow Buddha Nanwu to return to the Demon Zone and become the supporter behind the Mo Luantian. He would spread the Buddhist dharma and convert the demon race into Buddhas.
Chu Xuan hatched a plan in his heart.
Half a year later, Ding Yue's cultivation had finally reached its limit.
His foundation was sturdy enough.
It was time for him to break through to the Emperor realm.
He sat cross-legged in the universe space and was preparing to break through.
Meanwhile, Su Xian'er was breaking through to the second level of the Emperor realm.
Chapter 140: Evil Warding Immortal Scripture
To Ding Yue, breaking through to the Emperor realm was simply par for the course.
Whether it was accumulation, foundation, or comprehension, he had achieved all of the necessary requirements.
"Your disciple Ding Yue, under your guidance, cultivated at a godly speed and broke through to the Emperor realm. You have been rewarded with 100 years' worth of cultivation."
After Ding Yue broke through, the system's reward arrived, which Chu Xuan promptly received.
After his cultivation was boosted by 100 years, his strength improved again, inching closer to the Heaven realm.
As expected, the reward was not enough for him to break through to the Heaven realm.
Chu Xuan's current cultivation could be considered the half-step Heaven realm.
Next, he would have to depend on the reward he received from Wang Luo's reward from breaking through to the Emperor realm.
Chu Xuan estimated that, even after Wang Luo broke through, it would not be enough for him to break through to the Heaven realm.
In the end, cultivation was still dependent on oneself.
Thinking this, Chu Xuan increased the time he spent on cultivation.
At his level, his cultivation speed was not as fast as when he was below the Emperor realm, breaking through a small realm every few days.
One should not look at how close he was to reaching the Heaven realm.
If he relied solely on his own cultivation, it would take him about ten years to break through.
This was already a godly speed.
After all, the gap between the Supreme realm and Heaven realm was like a natural chasm.
Countless geniuses were stuck at this stage. Eventually, their lifespan was exhausted and they turned to dust.
Half a year after Ding Yue broke through to the Emperor realm, Wang Luo had also reached the limits of his truth realm cultivation. He was about to break through to the Emperor realm.
Inside the universe space, Wang Luo was seated cross-legged.
A flame floated above his head.
Heavenly Void Fire!
Following the appearance of the Heavenly Void Fire, Wang Luo's entire body seemed to transform itself into flames in an instant.
Chu Xuan watched for a while before turning his attention elsewhere.
He was busy with his own cultivation. He estimated that the 100-year cultivation boost reward would not be sufficient for him to break through to the Heaven realm.
It was as he expected.
"Your disciple Wang Luo, under your guidance, cultivated at a godly speed and broke through to the Emperor realm. You have been rewarded with 100 years' worth of cultivation."
He received the reward, and a hundred years' worth of cultivation was instilled into his body.
His strength began to slowly increase.
He was another step closer to the Heaven realm.
However, he did not break through to the Heaven realm.
His original timeline to break through to the Heaven realm was ten years, by relying on his own cultivation, but after receiving this cultivation boost reward, it was reduced to five years.
Whether he could break through to the Heaven realm before the ten-year seclusion milestone would now depend on Chu Pingfan.
Or, perhaps he could trigger the system's cultivation boost reward elsewhere…
He could use the Myriad Heavenly Mirror and do his best to strengthen Mo Luantian's cultivation.
Chu Xuan felt that the one most likely to trigger the system's reward within this period of time was the Mo Luantian.
Mo Luantian's strength had already risen to the sixth level of the truth realm.
From this, it could be seen that his talent was extraordinary. He was indeed worthy of being one of the children of fate of the Demon Zone.
Every once in a while, Chu Xuan would connect to Mo Luantian and preach Buddhist scriptures to him. He would also solve the latter's cultivation problems.
According to the Buddhist precepts, one should not eat meat and fish, but Chu Xuan did not put any restrictions on eating meat and fish.
He had not taken the Buddhist sect he created very seriously.
Although Mo Luantian was more serious, and seemed to be a serious monk, for some reason, Chu Xuan felt that Mo Luantian would one day go astray.
He had already tried his best to control himself and stop deceiving Mo Luantian. However, when he first met Mo Luantian, he had spouted a lot of nonsense.
Every time he saw Mo Luantian, he could not help but feel that the latter had a bit of a demonic nature.
Moreover, Mo Luantian actually liked to wear white monk robes.
He changed the color of the monk robe that Chu Xuan had given him back then into white. His white monk robes were spotless.
His bald head was shiny, and his features were somewhat delicate.
"Master, can I change the staff into a saber?"
Eh?
Chu Xuan was stunned. He wanted to change the staff into a saber?
Had Mo Luantian been provoked to the point of wanting to kill someone?
"Why do you want to change it into a saber?"
"Master, I often feel that the greed of the world is too great, and then I suddenly had an epiphany. I want to forge a Saber of Discipline."
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows. Mo Luantian seemed to be very talented in Buddhism; he had an epiphany just like that?
"I am glad that you had such an epiphany. I will give you a Saber of Discipline!"
Chu Xuan took out a heavenly saber and refined it. He added some new functions and turned it into a Saber of Discipline.
He then transferred the Saber of Discipline to Mo Luantian.
"Thank you, Master!"
Mo Luantian bowed with his palms clasped together, and then took the Saber of Discipline.
Chu Xuan ended the connection with Mo Luantian. He did not know when this new disciple of his would trigger the system reward, but he had a feeling it would not take too long.
He then started thinking about what else he could do to trigger the system's reward.
However, he did not consider Qin Ying.
Ever since he gave him the Tyrant Dragon Body technique to him last time, Chu Xuan had not contacted him again. After all, Qin Ying was just an in-name disciple, so he could not pay too much attention to him.
Most importantly, he was afraid that Qin Ying would ask him for a way to become a man.
He could not change his gender, and he could not find a way for him to circumvent the Great Dao.
If he could not do so, would it not be rather embarrassing on his part as an exalted master?
Therefore, Chu Xuan would not contact Qin Ying for the time being.
Moreover, he would feel a little uncomfortable if Qin Ying turned back into a fierce man.
Ren Changhe still needed time to break through to the Divine realm. It was impossible for him to do so in three to five years.
It was the same for Buddha Nanwu.
Chu Xuan suddenly thought about the lucky mystic realm that he had received as a reward for taking in Mo Luantian. It had not been set up yet.
If he set it up now, who knew when someone with great luck would enter the lucky mystic realm and trigger the system's reward.
He decided to make full use of the lucky mystic realm.
Chu Xuan thought long and hard about what kind of opportunities he should put inside it.
Cultivation techniques were indispensable.
He also needed other natural treasures and divine artifacts.
Without such things, how could it be called a lucky mystic realm?
Chu Xuan was conflicted about which cultivation technique he should put inside the lucky mystic realm.
He had countless cultivation techniques and secret techniques, and the lowest one he considered putting in was a divine technique. From his perspective, a fortuitous encounter was only worth it if it allowed the person to cultivate to the divine realm.
In fact, he felt that he should even place a cultivation technique that was above a divine technique.
Chu Xuan thought for a moment and took out a small booklet. He then jotted down a cultivation technique using the blessing of the Sagemaster's Halo.
Suddenly, a mischievous thought appeared in his mind.
"Let's add a little something," He muttered to himself.
He closed his eyes slightly and began to deduce a new cultivation technique based on the foundation of this cultivation technique, using his imagination.
The advantage of mastering a cultivation technique and secret technique was that one could piece together an altogether new cultivation technique using one's own ideas and imagination.
After jotting down the cultivation technique and secret technique, he then used a mysterious method to seal the writings. One would need to follow the requirements to open the cultivation technique.
He gave the cultivation technique a name and wrote it on the cover.
"Evil Warding Immortal scripture.".
On the second page of the booklet, Chu Xuan wrote a few words in large print, "If you want to practice this technique, use your sword to castrate yourself."
At the bottom left corner of the same page, he wrote in small print, "Cut off the root of your thoughts, gather your willpower, and cultivate the ultimate technique."
Looking at those large words on the secret manual, Chu Xuan muttered, "No one should be so stupid as to cut off their own thing after seeing this page, right?"
Leaving a blank page, he wrote on the third page, "If you don't self-castrate, you can still successfully cultivate this technique."
In the lower left corner, he added a few words to explain, "If you don't go through the secular world, how can you temper your state of mind? All of the powerful people in the ancient world have tempered themselves; if you sever your roots and sever your desires to cultivate this technique, then you are a coward!"
Chu Xuan thought for a moment and wrote on the fourth page, "If you severed your roots, you are a coward and immensely stupid, but if you did not, your mind is whole, and you will definitely accomplish great things."
On the fifth page, he wrote, "Kowtow. Kowtow three times and the technique will appear."
After he finished writing the secret manual, Chu Xuan could not help but mutter, "There won't be anyone who would cut off their thing after reading the first page, right? Nah, no way…"
