Chapter 20 Those who imitate me will die, those who resemble me will live
Today's harvest was so rich. The wave of powerful people who came in before made Ling Xiao feel that the trip was worthwhile.
Now these leeks have once again contributed a batch of tender leeks, which really makes him feel very happy.
However, he knew that improving the avenues of deception and trickery were the fundamentals.
Resources and other external things are just to assist oneself.
And if one could break through from the late stage of Daluo Jinxian to the peak, and then if one could break through to Quasi-Sage, that would be a real big gain.
Ling Xiao already had an idea in his mind at this moment.
After he sells the seven large cushions, he can also harvest a final crop of plump leeks.
The opportunity for breakthrough may be here.
Because all the previous deceiving and deceiving people only gave him a huge amount of enlightenment and endless magical power in the end.
At this moment, Shi Hao looked at the many powerful people, and he thought of what his master had said before.
"Everyone, there are only seven people who can be disciples of the Saint."
"The master said that the more resources you hand over, the more sincere you are."
"I took a look and found that Emperor Jun, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and Hou Tu handed over the most resources."
"The positions of the seven great saints' disciples have been determined."
After saying that, Shi Hao returned all the other resources.
Emperor Jun, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and Hou Tu were all sitting on purple cushions at this moment.
The disappointment in the eyes of many powerful people who did not win the competition was obvious.
But they had no choice but to sit on the white cushion, a thousand meters away from the purple cushion.
Then, Ling Xiao began to preach to the crowd, a piece of Tao Te Ching, which was so eloquent that everyone was fascinated. They sometimes shook their heads and sometimes beat their chests with emotion.
Under the cover of the Chaos Demon Lotus's Heaven-Deceiving Array, if living beings believe in it, it exists; if they don't believe in it, it doesn't exist.
Some people did gain some benefits. At least their minds became clearer and their understanding of Taoism was further improved.
As the Tao Te Ching was finished, Nuwa stood up and bowed respectfully to Ling Xiao. A look of doubt flashed across her beautiful eyes as she asked, "Master, I have a question. Can you help me solve it?"
Ling Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the Taoist platform, was enveloped by divine light and bathed in the light of endless laws. He was curious in his heart, but he said lightly: "Tell me."
"Luo Hou, Yin Yang, Qian Kun, Five Elements, what kind of magic did these ancient Chaos Demon Gods, who were reincarnated, practice?"
The questions Nuwa asked were related to the cultivation system.
“Why were they once Primordial Golden Immortals, but now they are in the realm second only to Saints, called Quasi Saints.”
Hearing this, Ling Xiao slowly said: "Cultivators, once you have reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm, if you want to advance further, you must either cultivate the Way of the Quasi-Sage or the Way of the Primordial Chaos."
"If you want to break through to the Quasi-Sage level, then you must kill the three corpses, place your primordial spirit in the three spiritual treasures, and then transform the three spiritual treasures into the good corpse, the evil corpse, and the self corpse."
"And if you want to cultivate the Way of Hun Yuan, you need to initially master a law, and then integrate the law into your soul. However, this path is extremely difficult. It is difficult to do it unless you have outstanding talent, great perseverance, and great fortune."
"The Hunyuan Golden Immortal is at the same level as the Quasi-Sage, but their magic power and strength cannot be compared."
"A Quasi-Saint is weaker than a Primordial Golden Immortal!"
Having said that, Ling Xiao understood in his heart that the path he was taking was the path of Hun Yuan.
Once he breaks through, he will definitely become a Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
Ultimately, one attains the status of a great saint.
The master of the Avenue of Deception and the Avenue of Trickery.
Hunyuan Jinxian is too rare and too difficult to achieve, so this state is generally confused with: Quasi-Sage. In fact, how can those who kill the three corpses and become Quasi-Sage be the same as those who practice the laws?
Once Ling Xiao breaks through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, he will be more than ten times stronger than an ordinary Quasi-Sage cultivator.
Regardless of whether it is the Quasi-Sage realm or the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, each has ten levels, and the tenth level is the peak realm.
"Thank you, Master, for clarifying my doubts."
Nuwa bowed, continued blinking her big eyes, and asked, "Master, I understand. For most cultivators, only by killing the three corpses can they become a quasi-saint."
"So, after beheading the three corpses and becoming a quasi-saint, how do you become a true saint?"
When she asked this question, the attention of everyone in the audience was instantly drawn.
For practitioners, the ultimate goal is to become a saint, because that is the true transcendence.
After hearing this, Ling Xiao thought for a moment and said, "My way is to become a saint by proving the way with the three corpses, but for you, this path is not feasible."
"Slaying the Three Corpses is a path that this Saint created by overcoming all obstacles. It is also within the Three Thousand Great Ways."
"Those who imitate me will die, those who resemble me will live."
Ling Xiao was not completely fooling people, as later novels said that the method passed down by Hongjun was not complete. But regardless of whether it was complete or not, Hongjun had already killed the three corpses to prove his Tao, and as long as he was alive, the path to killing the three corpses to prove his Tao would be blocked.
This is also the reason why the six saints destined by heaven in the future will all become saints through their merits.
However, becoming a saint through merit and virtue is nothing but a false way, destined to be dependent on the primordial way of heaven, and its strength is far inferior to that of a great saint.
It was okay in the prehistoric world, but once out of the prehistoric world, people at the same level would be completely suppressed by the saints of the Great Dao.
Actually, there are three paths to sanctification.
Hongjun has already discovered a way to become a saint by killing the three corpses.
The second is to become a saint through merit. If one has made great contributions to the prehistoric world, heaven will bestow endless merit upon him to help him become a saint.
The third is to become a great sage, to be truly free and unrestrained, but one needs to follow the Hunyuan route.
However, it is very difficult to become a Great Dao Sage. The first prerequisite is to become a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and then cultivate to the peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, completely integrate a Great Dao law into the Yuanshen, the Great Dao will appear, and then one will become a Great Dao Sage.
Comparing the three, of course it is the Great Saint who has the most terrifying strength.
There were once three thousand Chaos Demons, and each of them was a great saint in his heyday.
At this moment, after hearing what Ling Xiao said, many powerful people couldn't help themselves.
There was an uproar in an instant!
Since everyone can only become a saint by killing three corpses, but you can only walk this path alone, then what is the point of us paying so many resources?
At this moment, countless powerful people want to ask for the resources that have been treasured for many years!
Among them, the witches, except Hou Tu, who had the most violent temper, all stood up.
"If the sage's method cannot lead to sagehood, then why should we hand over so many things for cultivation?"
Zhu Rong's tone was very aggressive, full of doubt and anger.
The other Ancestral Witches were also staring at Ling Xiao.
The murderous look in their eyes almost became tangible, as sharp as a blade.
In an instant, the whole audience fell silent.
The witch clan is so reckless!
"presumptuous!"
Before Ling Xiao could open his mouth, Shi Hao's thunderous roar had already exploded in the hall.
"Why should I explain to you the saint's life and deeds? Are you worthy? If you don't want to listen, you can leave on your own."
"My master is so powerful that he can overwhelm the world. You are such a foolish man who doesn't use his brain. If my master had no way to pass on the teachings, why would he accept the magic treasures from your witch clan?"
