Chapter 173: I Wish The Both Of You Happiness!
Cultivation was not just to increase one’s strength but also their mental fortitude. Thus, the importance of cultivating one’s mental fortitude went without saying.
Be it Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, or Golden Core, they were all cultivation realms inclined to one’s strength. However, after the Nascent Soul stage, the cultivation of one’s mental fortitude became even more important—one had to experience the mortal world to train their mind.
If the cultivator firmly believed in their own Dao, they would naturally be able to advance by leaps and bounds in the road of cultivation, improving greatly in a short period. However, if one started to doubt the Dao they had chosen, then mental demons would be easily formed and result in serious injuries.
One’s Dao need not be of the Five Elements or Yin Yang. It could be something minor, such as the Dao of musical instruments, painting and calligraphy, or even the Dao of admiration toward powerful beings.
Rumors said that there had been a peerless emperor in the ancient period that had created the Heavenly Courts, unified the five regions, and had endless territory. That emperor had been invincible, and his believers had also advanced triumphantly in the road of cultivation.
In the end, there were even rumors that the emperor had brought all his followers to ascend to the Infinite Immortal Domain and begun a war.
Meanwhile, this legend, which was unknown whether it was true or fake, had also become a classic example of “When a man gets to the top, all his friends and relations get there with him.”
Thus, many cultivators in the cultivation world knew their aptitude was limited, so they would not insist on taking the invincible Dao. Instead, they would follow those that were more powerful. As long as they were firm that their choice was correct, they could form their own Dao.
Of course, in theory, Saints and Saintesses would not choose this road as the sacred grounds had their pride.
The Saint/Saintess of any sacred ground was the most powerful genius in the 100 years of the sacred ground, representing its reputation.
They could choose any Dao to compete with other talents in the world, but only the Dao of being a follower was a taboo.
Naturally, since Big Dipper’s Saint, Chen Zhongtian, had chosen to follow the Purple Mansion’s Saint, the Big Dipper Sacred Ground had lost face. Even if the Purple Mansion’s Saint had the Thearch’s talents, the Big Dipper Sacred Ground was still unwilling.
As such, numerous people from the Big Dipper had been demanding to replace their current Saint. Nonetheless, Chen Zhongtian was powerful while the genius Qi Shaoxuan’s light was too blinding, suppressing the idle chatter.
Even so, Chen Zhongtian was still upset that people were gossiping and speaking behind his back. He had convinced himself repeatedly that Qi Shaoxuan was a rare genius that could only be found once in 10,000 years in the Eastern Wilderness!
Senior Brother Shaoxuan is unique! He will definitely become a Sage in the future!
My choice proves that I, Chen Zhongtian, truly have discerning eyes that can tell greatness from mediocrity!
Only then did he forcibly stabilize his Dao Heart.
…
By continuing to apotheosize the Purple Mansion’s Saint, Chen Zhongtian could continue to follow him without regrets. His belief was very firm, and the fact that Qi Shaoxuan was also generous, sharing lots of his fortuitous opportunities’ gains, strengthened it.
Chen Zhongtian’s rapid increase in cultivation due to that generosity only made his decision to follow Qi Shaoxuan even more determined.
However, Chen Zhongtian started doubting himself today.
Senior Brother Shaoxuan is the true Son of Providence! He is blessed by the heavens and has the talents of the Thearch.
I came to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground under Senior Brother Shaoxuan’s orders, so how could I lose face?
Even Senior Brother Shaoxuan only has 50L of Nirvana Holy Liquid, so how is it possible for this Shen Tian to have 250L? Also, the quality of these 250 liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid is even better!
…
What made Chen Zhongtian break down was that Qi Shaoxuan had only shared 500mL of Nirvana Holy Liquid with him after he had been following him for so many years. Yet, it was different in Divine Firmament Sacred Ground!
Fang Chang’s Golden Core had cracked after suffering a Qi Deviation, and the Divine Firmament’s Saint just directly gave him 50L without hesitation!
He was just too generous!
Chen Zhongtian was green with envy—be it his heart or outer appearance, he was green all over.
In order to breakthrough from the Golden Core to Nascent Soul, one had to break their core and form a new soul. They had to use their soul’s power within the Golden Core to form the Nascent Soul of Dao.
The newly-formed Nascent Soul was fragile, which was not only apparent in terms of one’s battle strength. At the same time, the cultivator’s state of mind that had just entered the Nascent Soul stage would also easily be influenced by their emotions.
Eastern Wilderness did not lack cultivators that suffered Qi Deviations due to doubting their Dao after just breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, normally, Golden Core cultivators that had just entered the Nascent Soul stage would enter seclusion to stabilize their cultivation level.
However, Chen Zhongtian had been in a rush to show off, so he had rushed to the Divine Firmament right after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
In the end, Shen Tian unknowingly showed off in front of him, and thus Chen Zhongtian started to doubt his Dao.
At that moment, his Nascent Soul cultivation level started to be unstable, while his state of mind became abnormal too.
…
Shen Tian did not have the time to care about Chen Zhongtian right now as he was immersed in the pleasure of his providence increasing.
Ah, this feeling is just too awesome!
This kind of feeling, wherein his whole body was relaxed and as if flying at the peak of clouds, ‘forced’ him to want to continue enjoying it.
As the silver Nirvana Holy Liquid entered Fang Chang’s body, Shen Tian could see that the halo on Fang Chang’s head started changing rapidly. The originally faint red and gold halo started to turn pure gold, and it shone even more brightly!
Meanwhile, Shen Tian’s dark green halo turned even a deeper shade of green, and even red light was visible now.
That’s right—red light!
Shen Tian’s halo finally radiated red light!
Currently, Shen Tian felt really relaxed—he was really becoming lucky!
He could now be counted as someone blessed by providence as compared to normal people.
Everyone was silently staring at Fang Chang now.
After a whole bottle of Nirvana Holy Liquid was used on Fang Chang, his Golden Core no longer had any cracks. On the contrary, his whole Golden Core had turned extremely smooth. His body also became buff and full of strength under the nourishment of the Nirvana Holy Liquid.
“Ah!” Fang Chang let out a loud roar, and his Golden Core suddenly emitted an eye-piercing bright light.
Immediately after, cracks gradually appeared once again. However, this time, it was not due to failure, but because he was refining his Golden Core.
That’s right—after the Nirvana Holy Liquid healed his Dao injury, Fang Chang had profited from the misfortune. He had an enlightenment about the mysterious Dao, and thus, he was breaking through now.
The cracks peeled off and revealed the new Golden Core inside, which shone more radiantly before the ninth Dharmic mark slowly appeared.
Fang Chang was currently breaking through to the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage, and he had already half-succeeded.
The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader nodded slightly. He took the jade bottle in Heavenly Venerable White Lotus’ hand and crushed it.
The surging Nirvana Holy Liquid instantly flew out in the shape of a silver dragon and shot toward Fang Chang rapidly, wrapping him up. Endless vitality surged within Fang Chang’s body, replenishing his consumption.
In that instant, his Golden Core surface’s peeling process became even faster, and the Dharmic mark also became clearer.
The old Taoist priest, who was standing at the side, heaved a sigh of relief and secretly took deep breaths.
The scene of the Sacred Leader using the Nirvana Holy Liquid in such a grandiose manner left Chen Zhongtian slack-jawed.
Chen Zhongtian, who had recovered after barely stabilizing his Dao from being at a loss for more than an hour, directly rolled his eyes to the back and fainted when he saw such a scene.
The Sacred Leader took a look at Chen Zhongtian calmly, and the lightning and heavenly aura around him started to fluctuate.
…
A humongous Qilin avatar formed behind Fang Chang.
In that instant, Fang Chang was surrounded by golden lightning, as if the God of Thunder had descended. He let out a long roar, and eye-blinding radiance exploded from his Golden Core, and the aura his body emitted increased rapidly.
Boom!
The tide of energy exploded before Fang Chang landed on the ground heavily.
“Unfilial disciple, Fang Chang, thanks Master and Aunt-Master for saving me.”
Then, Fang Chang looked at Shen Tian, who was outside the secret room. His eyes were filled with tears.
He murmured, “Junior Brother has given me so much of his fortuitous opportunity’s gains, but I had wanted to compete with him to determine the winner all along.
“Be it in terms of strength, temperament, or broadness of mind, I have all lost.
“Junior Brother, you’re the perfect match for Junior Sister Yunxi.
“I… wish the both of you happiness!”
