The Method of Dual Cultivation, Xuanyuan's Fury
These people never regarded him as the true Human Emperor from beginning to end!
In their eyes, I am nothing more than a tool for them to gain Merit Fortune!
Otherwise, why would they resort to such an absurd and disgraceful method to deceive themselves?
An indescribable feeling of nausea and humiliation welled up inside me.
He forcibly suppressed the urge to smash the jade book in Guangchengzi's face on the spot.
He slowly rolled up the jade book and looked calmly at Guangchengzi, who was filled with anticipation.
"Knew."
Xuanyuan simply uttered three words.
Guangchengzi's smile froze, and he looked somewhat taken aback.
That's it?
This is an unparalleled and wondrous method bestowed by Saint; it is the key to solving your problem of attaining enlightenment!
How could you react like that?
Shouldn't they be overjoyed and moved to tears?
"Human Emperor..." Guangchengzi wanted to say something more, trying to explain the profound mystery of this Cultivation Method.
However, Xuanyuan didn't even glance at Guangchengzi before lowering his head again to look at the bamboo slips on the table.
"If Master has nothing else, please return. I still have official business to attend to."
Guangchengzi wanted to say something more, but when he met Xuanyuan's cold gaze, all his words stuck in his throat.
In the end, he could only bow in utter confusion and utter embarrassment.
"Yes... this humble Daoist priest takes his leave."
Only after Guangchengzi's figure had completely disappeared did Xuanyuan slam his fist hard on the table with a "bang".
His chest heaved violently, and for the first time, his usually dignified face revealed undisguised anger and disgust.
This is outrageous!
Did the Clarify Sect, from Yuanshi Tianzun to his master Guangchengzi, truly believe that Xuanyuan was a puppet to be manipulated at will?
When faced with trouble, instead of thinking about honest and upright solutions, they resort to these underhanded tactics!
They even call it the "law of Zaohua"!
He, Xuanyuan, was the human emperor, a towering figure who stood tall and upright, relying on his achievements in governing the world.
He relied on the Human Emperor Sword in his hand and the support of all the people of the Human Clan!
How could one cultivate such a despicable Cultivation Method in order to attain enlightenment!
If that were truly the case, what face would he have to call himself the Human Emperor?
How can I possibly face the venerable Ancestor of Huoyun Cave?
He hasn't reached the point where he's desperate and needs to resort to any means necessary!
Xuanyuan picked up the jade book without the slightest hesitation.
He strode out of the Human Emperor Hall and flew straight towards the Huoyun Cave, the Human Race Holy Land.
Huoyun Cave.
Auspicious clouds swirl around, and a thousand streams of propitious energy emanate from them.
Wu, Fuxi, Shennong, Hong Yun, Suiren, and others looked at him.
"Xuanyuan, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry?"
Wu looked at Xuanyuan's angry face and slowly spoke.
Xuanyuan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his surging emotions, and bowed deeply to the Ancestor.
"Xuanyuan greets all the venerable Ancestor."
After the ceremony, he straightened up and raised the jade book in his hand high.
"Please, esteemed Ancestor, take a look!"
"This is the method of enlightenment that the Saint of the Clarify Sect found for me!"
His words were filled with undisguised sarcasm and anger.
Hong Yun raised his hand and the jade book floated lightly into his hand.
He unfolded the jade book, glanced at it only once, and then handed it to Fuxi beside him.
Fuxi read it and passed it on to Shennong.
Shennong examined it and then passed it on to Wu.
For a moment, the only sound in the entire hall was the gentle breeze as the jade scroll was passed around.
Xuanyuan stood below the hall, his chest heaving, awaiting the reactions of the Ancestor.
He assumed that his Ancestor would feel the same anger and disdain as he did.
However, to his surprise...
Hahahaha!
After reading the contents of the jade book, Wu was not angry at all; instead, he burst into a hearty laugh.
Immediately afterwards, Fuxi, Shennong, Hong Yun, and others also burst into laughter.
Laughter echoed through the hall, filled with joy and delight.
This, ironically, left Xuanyuan completely bewildered.
He stood there, stunned, filled with confusion and astonishment.
What are our Ancestor laughing at?
Don't they think this practice of dual cultivation is absurd, despicable, and a huge insult to the dignity of the Human Emperor?
Or perhaps, in the eyes of these Ancestor have lived for countless ages, my persistence is nothing but a joke?
A feeling of grievance and confusion even stronger than when he was humiliated before welled up in Xuanyuan's heart.
"Ancestor..."
Xuanyuan spoke with difficulty, wanting to ask, "Why are you laughing?"
Wu seemed to see through his thoughts, stopped laughing, and looked at him.
"Xuanyuan, do you know what we're laughing at?"
Xuanyuan shook his head blankly.
Wu stood up and walked step by step to Xuanyuan, his deep eyes fixed on him.
"We've been waiting, and we're laughing. You've finally arrived."
"We are overjoyed! Our Human Clan has not chosen the wrong people!"
Xuanyuan was even more puzzled.
The Daoist Hongyun, standing to the side, chuckled and explained.
"Xuanyuan, we were already aware of the predicament you are facing."
"Your battle with Chi You was excessive, leaving you with Baleful Qi and tainted with boundless Karma."
"This is the root cause of your inability to achieve perfect Merit and take the final step."
Xuanyuan was shocked. So that's how it is!
"Then... is there a solution?"
"Of course there are," Fuxi replied.
There are essentially three solutions.
"Firstly, I will use the flourishing Fortune of my Human Clan to slowly wear down this Baleful Qi and Karma for you."
"This method is the safest, but it takes too long, often tens of thousands of years."
"You can wait, but the Clarify Sect behind That One master can't."
Xuanyuan listened and nodded silently.
The Clarify Sect is eager to gain Merit Fortune, and indeed cannot wait that long.
"Secondly, it is to perform another unparalleled feat for the Human Clan."
"Merit is enough to offset or even wash away all the Karma you have."
"However, you have already unified the Human Clan and ushered in a golden age. How difficult it will be to achieve something even greater than before?"
Xuanyuan fell silent. Unifying the Human Clan was already the ultimate achievement of the Human Emperor.
In a short time, he really couldn't think of anything that could compare to it.
As for the third point...
"That is, to forcibly eliminate the Baleful Qi."
"The 'dual cultivation method' that Clarify Sect has given you is the quickest, but also the lowest, of them."
"In the name of Yinyang harmony, they practice Karma art of 'replenishing and nourishing,' forcibly eliminating the Baleful Qi energy and karmic burdens within your body."
"Although this method can quickly grant you perfect Merit and lead you to become the Human Emperor..."
"But the consequences will be dire!"
"Your cultivation will make little progress in the future."
"Moreover, if you choose this path, it proves that your resolve is not firm and your will is weak."
Even if you achieve perfect Merit and become the Human Emperor, you will no longer be of much benefit to our Human Clan in the future.
"By then, although you will still be the Human Emperor, you will never be able to enter the Huoyun Cave again."
"You will never be able to enter the true core of my Human Clan."
Boom!
These words struck Xuanyuan like a thunderbolt.
He felt a wave of fear wash over him, and his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
Fine!
Thank goodness I came!
Fortunately, I did not choose that seemingly quick path because of my desire to attain enlightenment!
Otherwise, he would not only ruin his own path of cultivation, but also be completely rejected by the Forefathers of the Human Clan!
Having figured all this out, Xuanyuan hesitated no longer and bowed deeply to the Ancestor of Huoyun Cave.
"I humbly request that you, my Ancestor, lend me your assistance!"
