He had thought that it would be the beginning of hell, but he did not expect that he would be able to obtain merit from punishing evil and helping others. Doing bad things would not deduct merit points, but doing good things would definitely be rewarded! As long as he did 100 million good deeds every day and accumulated merit and karma, he could speed up his cultivation progress and even directly break through! Even the lowest-level acolyte cantrip, Light Treatment, would have terrifying power if it was broken through endlessly. " However, why is there something wrong with the phototherapy technique after the breakthrough?"
