Chapter 768 - 539: Creating a System (2)
"Qi of Creation!"
"The creation unique to us Daoist Monarchs!"
Such Qi of Creation is infinitely mysterious, capable of nurturing any seventh-grade rare treasure.
"The Taiyi realm calls this realm the Daoist Monarch of Creation, not without reason."
"Entering such a realm, the methods are mysterious, far beyond what a Dharma Master can reach."
However, using the Qi of Creation to nurture rare treasures is like killing the chicken to get the egg; Chen Sheng would never do this.
Ordinary seventh-grade treasures are already useless to him, now a Daoist Monarch!
The greatest use of this Qi of Creation is to nurture this Pan Wu world, to evolve all things, to enhance the world’s foundation, so that this world can become a perfect mid-thousand world sooner.
This is his foundation for transcending the Grand Thousand and achieving Mahayana!
Not only will Chen Sheng not siphon the Qi of Creation from this world, but he will also try every way to seek various innate rare treasures from the Grand Thousand world to bring into this Pan Wu world, nurturing the mother river, and spawning more creation.
So that the laws of this world can become more complete.
"To achieve Mahayana, transcend the Grand Thousand, one must make the mid-thousand world extremely perfect..."
"At the same time, one must thoroughly comprehend the innate blood path they are exploring; only then can the two complement each other, reaching the peak."
Upon reaching this thought, Chen Sheng’s heart suddenly stirred, a flash of brilliance passed through his eyes:
"Next, I will create my own cultivation system!"
Similar to the illusory heart path of the heart world, using the heart spirit as a guide, the illusion realm as a medium, to explain the great dao of the heart...
The divine warrior martial arts of the True Martial world, based on the physical body, with power as the edge, to explain the great dao of True Martial...
This is also the path many Daoist Monarchs unanimously took.
Creating a cultivation system itself is a way to explain one’s own great dao.
Every step in the deduction of the cultivation system, the setting of each realm, contains the Daoist Monarch’s understanding and insight into their own great dao.
The further this cultivation system walks, the deeper one’s comprehension of one’s own dao, and the more solid the foundation.
At the same time, one can also leverage the wisdom of countless beings, allowing them to continuously explore and comprehend within the cultivation system, providing feedback to oneself, helping to perfect the cultivation system, further perfecting one’s own dao, reaching the realm of great dao perfection.
"I cultivate the innate blood path, so I must take this path as the core, deriving a cultivation system."
"Just in time, there’s still time for five Primordial Assemblies to comprehend the Blood Drop Map."
A subtle blood-colored pattern slowly emerged at Chen Sheng’s forehead.
"Clang——"
A resonant sound of the Dao echoed, and the pattern suddenly unfolded, transforming into an ancient and mysterious scroll, precisely the "Blood Drop Map."
On the scroll, blood-colored Dao patterns interwove, echoing the life mother river below, emitting a majestic innate Dao Rhyme.
"Blood is the foundation of all life, veins carry the root of the great dao... Observing blood to know life and death, comprehending veins to realize creation."
Chen Sheng immediately sat cross-legged above the life mother river, a lotus platform emerging from the void, bearing his body, with the "Blood Drop Map" suspended at his forehead, blood-colored Dao patterns cascading down.
He closed his eyes slightly, beginning to focus his mind and deduce, gradually outlining a cultivation system of his own, explaining the true meaning of his own great dao.
...
Antarctic Immortal Mansion.
A grand feast was being held in celebration of Pan Wu Daoist’s breakthrough to the Daoist Monarch realm.
Guests were arriving one after another, all were venerable high cultivators traversing the Grand Thousand, with Dao Rhymes swirling around them, exhibiting an extraordinary bearing.
On one side of the banquet hall, disciples of the Pan Wu lineage stood quietly and solemnly, their expressions full of undeniable glory and pride.
"The founding ancestor’s breakthrough to the Daoist Monarch realm is the greatest event in the history of our Pan Wu lineage!"
"Isn’t it just so!"
"Today, three Daoist Monarchs gathered, even the Daoist Monarchs of the Huangji and Beiji families honored us with their presence at the feast... It is an unparalleled honor!"
In the midst of the crowd, Qin Zhaoyu quietly listened to the words of the juniors, nodding slightly, a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
Suddenly, a high and solemn announcement came from outside the hall, with a very strong penetrating power:
"Pan Wu Daoist Monarch, arrived——!"
The noise within the banquet hall immediately subsided, even the celestial music subconsciously lowered in volume.
A blood-colored lotus platform was slowly descending from the void, the lotus petals unfolding layer by layer, exuding a rich innate blood path spirit light.
On the lotus platform.
A tall figure slowly manifested, Dao might restrained yet inherently oppressive, an expression of tranquility.
Ming Sheng raised his hand, slightly cupping his hands towards the Daoist Monarchs at the table, his voice clear and powerful, with its own dao rhythm:
"Fellow Daoists, I salute you!"
The Daoist Monarchs at the table immediately laughed, their tone enthusiastic, all cupping their hands in return.
Kong Fang Daoist Monarch clapped his hands and laughed heartily, with faint movements of thunder around him:
"Congratulations to Pan Wu Daoist Monarch for breaking through to the realm of Crossing the Tribulation, what a joy! Our Antarctic lineage has gained another Daoist Monarch!"
Ming Sheng nodded slightly, his tone flat:
"Thank you, fellow Daoists, for your kind words."
The celestial music played again, the fragrance of spirit wine filled the air, all the great powers toasted and exchanged cups, discussing the great dao, feasting to their heart’s content.
After a while, the banquet gradually dissipated, and the great powers successively took their leave.
...
Inside the Pan Wu Hall, incense smoke curled, innate Dao energy lingered, jade pillars in the hall glowed with a warm sheen, Dao Rhymes flowed constantly, tranquil and solemn.
Qin Zhaoyu led the core disciples of the Pan Wu lineage, bowing together, expressions respectful, their voices in unison.
"Zhang Taixu of the Zhang Clan, pays respect to the founding ancestor! May the founding ancestor’s dao fortune thrive, and his life be as long as the heavens!"
"Qi Qingxuan of the Qi Clan, pays respect to the founding ancestor! Congratulations to the founding ancestor for breaking through to the Daoist Monarch, may he protect our Pan Wu lineage for ten thousand years of prosperity!"
"Qin Hao of the Qin Clan, pays respect to the founding ancestor! I will cultivate diligently, living up to the ancestral teachings!"
...
Ming Sheng sat at the main seat, his expression calm and indifferent, he nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, knowing in his heart.
Those brought here by Qin Zhaoyu were all good seedlings of the Pan Wu lineage, all top-tier Void Refining Cultivators, with extraordinary talents.
"Not bad, you all cultivate diligently, and do not slack."
He just casually encouraged them a couple of sentences, there was no helping it, the gap between them was indeed too great!
These Void Refining Cultivators, their life spans were at most one Primordial Assembly, and with him entering seclusion once, they might just sit and return to the void.
Only by achieving the Dharma Master level could they truly catch his eye.
As he was about to leave, Ming Sheng gave a few pointers:
"If you encounter bottlenecks in cultivation, you can try transforming into the Asura body, with the power of the blood path, it may not be impossible to take a step further."
The disciples, hearing this, eyes lit with joy, hurriedly bowed again in salute, responding in unison:
"Thank you, founding ancestor, for your guidance, we will keep it in mind!"
Soon, the core disciples took their leave one after another, and the hall gradually returned to silence, leaving only Qin Zhaoyu standing by the side.
Ming Sheng slowly raised his eyes, his gaze landing on Qin Zhaoyu, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth, his tone carrying a hint of approval:
"Not bad, you’ve made considerable progress while I’ve been in seclusion over the years."
Now, Qin Zhaoyu had already reached the perfection of the third step of Integration, just one step away from the fourth step.
Qin Zhaoyu hurriedly bowed, her tone respectful:
"It is all due to the teacher’s meticulous cultivation that I am where I am today, I dare not be proud, and still need to focus on refining."
She paused for a moment, then looked up at Ming Sheng, her tone carrying a hint of inquiry:
"Master, in my recent cultivation, I have not fully grasped the changes of the Destructive Tribulation and the Void Tribulation, I hope the teacher will guide me."
Ming Sheng nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Now that he had achieved the innate Dao seed, his understanding of the Heaven and Earth Laws had already reached a vantage point, explaining them was direct and incisive.
"The Destructive Tribulation breaks one’s own shackles, the tribulation arises from within... The Void Tribulation breaks the constraints of heaven and earth, the tribulation arises from outside..."
The teacher and apprentice exchanged questions and answers, Qin Zhaoyu’s brows gradually relaxed, and soon she was suddenly enlightened, bowing once more in salute:
"Thank you for your guidance, teacher, I understand now!"
After a moment of silence, Qin Zhaoyu seemed to recall something, and spoke again, her tone cautious:
"By the way, teacher, that Du Han has also become a Dharma Master, and has now joined the Cloud Peak Heavenly Palace of the Taiyi Realm."
"Previously, he even sought someone to mediate, wishing to resolve past grievances, I hope the teacher will give instructions."
Chen Sheng heard this, his expression remained unchanged, unsurprised, his tone calm:
"That boy, after all, received the opportunity of the outer Treasure Vault, achieving the Dharma Body, and breaking through to Dharma Master was within expectations."
"You can handle this matter yourself, there is no need to ask me again."
Qin Zhaoyu felt a chill in her heart: "Yes, I will obey the order!"
Chen Sheng nodded, believing that Qin Zhaoyu could suppress an ordinary Dharma Master.
