The Foundation Takes Shape; Reunion with Randeng
This preaching lasted for three thousand years.
Among the hundreds of thousands of independent cultivators, most had changed their foundations, and a red lotus between their brows shone brightly.
The reason it's not all is because some cultivators still adhere to their own path.
However, even these cultivators were imbued with the aura of the Red Lotus World-Saving Path.
Perhaps one day in the future, this fundamental change will occur.
The benevolent corpse was quite satisfied with this result.
Preaching is a long process and cannot be accomplished overnight.
The initial result met his expectations.
"This sermon has now concluded. I hope you will diligently cultivate yourselves and help others achieve enlightenment!"
The benevolent voice of the benevolent corpse resounded in the ears of every monk.
"Thank you, Divine Lord, for this method!"
Whether they switched to the path of the Red Lotus or remained true to their own path, all the cultivators respectfully bowed and thanked Cihang.
"Alright, everyone, leave now!"
The benevolent corpse waved, signaling everyone to leave.
The group of cultivators bowed in gratitude to the benevolent corpse once again.
However, these monks split into two groups.
After the group of cultivators left, a small number of them remained kneeling.
"Your Majesty, we are merciful. We wish to become your disciples and hope you will accept us."
The unified sound once again resounded throughout Lotus Flower Mountain.
"Get up, all of you. I have no intention of taking on any disciples."
If you wish, you may stay on Lotus Flower Mountain to cultivate.
However, one thing must be remembered: those of us from Lotus Flower Mountain must not recklessly commit acts of killing, and must always remember the way to save the world.
If anyone violates this rule, I will definitely reclaim their cultivation and inheritance!
Because of its delicate relationship with the West, the Good Corpse has no intention of taking on disciples and establishing a sect.
In a short period of time, he preached and accumulated fortune and faith.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! You are merciful!"
Although they did not achieve the expected results, being able to stay on Lotus Flower Mountain to cultivate was a great opportunity for them.
"You may all step back and focus on your cultivation, lest you waste this opportunity."
After waving away the group of cultivators, the benevolent corpse closed its eyes again and continued its enlightenment and cultivation under the Lotus Flower Treasure Tree.
Although it did not continue preaching, the benevolent corpse itself continued to exude a rich aura of the Great Dao, harmonizing with the entire Lotus Flower Mountain.
Although the Red Lotus World-Saving Path has taken shape, in the eyes of the Good Corpse, it still has many shortcomings.
He wanted to establish his path based on this, and also to continuously refine the Red Lotus World-Saving Path.
In the years that followed, the Good Corpse would preach at Lotus Mountain for a hundred years every thousand years.
Gradually, Lotus Flower Mountain became famous, attracting many cultivators.
Many cultivators also chose to stay on Lotus Flower Mountain.
At the same time, those of the Taiyi Great Luo levels also came to discuss and exchange ideas.
Although they did not switch to the path of salvation, they did establish a good relationship with the benevolent corpse.
The arrival of the Randeng almost shattered the tranquility of Lotus Flower Mountain.
Ever since his failed attempt to avenge Cihang and the subsequent severe injury he sustained, Randeng has been in seclusion in Kunlun.
It went almost exactly as Cihang had predicted.
Although Yuanshi saved Randeng, he also became angry with Randeng because of it.
It did not help him recover his cultivation; it merely maintained his injuries and life force.
The Randeng can only rely on itself to continuously resist the erosion of evil energy.
Fortunately, with the Spirit Coffin Lamp in hand, the evil aura that had been threatening to overwhelm him was finally extinguished when his cultivation level dropped to the Golden Immortal realm.
But along with the disappearance of the malevolent energy, most of his own essence was also lost.
The collapse of the source directly led to a significant loss of the Randeng qualification.
In addition, the mark Cihang left on his mind made his path of rebuilding extremely difficult.
He did seek help from Yuanshi.
However, Yuanshi did not intervene. Instead, he stated that this was a calamity destined for Randeng, and that he himself needed to overcome it.
If one can overcome their inner struggles, Randeng may well be able to take another step forward.
But countless years have passed, and Randeng's cultivation has not progressed in the slightest.
Randeng gradually lost faith in Yuanshi and the Chan Sect.
He also began to doubt himself, wondering if he had made a mistake in joining Yuanshi's school in the first place.
After his cultivation level dropped, the respectful gazes he once received turned into mockery and ridicule.
The contrast was so stark that it nearly broke him.
But at this moment, he dared not leave the Chan Sect.
He had previously used Kunlun's influence to provoke quite a few enemies.
Once he leaves the Chan Sect, regardless of what happens to Yuanshi, his enemies will not let him go.
Now he needs the protection of the Yuanshi Sage even more, and dares not take the slightest wrong step.
After his arduous cultivation yielded no results, Randeng also considered going out to seek the Dao.
He clearly understood that if he stayed in Kunlun, his cultivation would stop at the Golden Immortal level.
It was under these circumstances that he accidentally came into contact with the Red Lotus World-Saving Path.
After trying it, he discovered that his cultivation level, which had been unable to improve for a long time, actually showed a slight sign of advancement.
However, the inheritance he received was extremely incomplete and not sufficient for him to truly cultivate.
In order to improve his cultivation level, Randeng went directly to Lotus Flower Mountain.
But when he climbed Lotus Flower Mountain, all that remained was fear and dread.
Others might not recognize Cihang, but he would never mistake him.
The person before him was the source of all his tragedies.
But at this moment, he could no longer feel resentment; he felt only fear and dread.
Randeng immediately turned to leave.
"Randeng, it's been a long time!"
The benevolent corpse's voice carried a complex meaning.
Randeng is the greatest enemy he encountered upon awakening his memories, and he was repeatedly put in danger because of Randeng.
He has now achieved the status of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal, while Randeng has fallen to the level of a Golden Immortal.
For him, the Randeng was fearless in the face of any threat.
"Randeng greets Senior Cihang!"
Discovered by the benevolent corpse, Randeng turned around and bowed with a look of trepidation.
It wasn't that he didn't want to escape, but he also knew that with his current cultivation level, he simply couldn't escape.
"I never imagined that when we met again, everything would have changed so much!"
A flash of murderous intent crossed the eyes of the benevolent corpse.
He was not Evil Corpse after all, and could not bring himself to harm such Randeng being.
Although Randeng's cultivation level has dropped, he is still Chan Sect Disciple and is protected by the Yuanshi Sage.
The moment he accepted the Creation Lotus Seed, his feud with Randeng was over.
"The reason why the Randeng has fallen to such a state is entirely due to its own greed."
It was Randeng evil intentions and repeatedly attacked his seniors.
"Randeng now knows he was wrong, and hopes that the senior will be magnanimous and forgive Randeng!"
Randeng didn't miss the fleeting murderous intent; he immediately knelt down, nervously apologizing and admitting his mistake.
He truly no longer harbored hatred for Cihang, nor did he have the right to resent Cihang.
In the Karma with Cihang, he has always been the one in the wrong.
Now he only hopes that Cihang can ignore his insignificant existence.
Even though his cultivation level had dropped, he was still unwilling to perish like this.
"Go away, this is not a place for you."
I also hope you can truly recognize your mistake, otherwise you will ultimately suffer the consequences!
Seeing the Randeng so brightly, the benevolent corpse lost all interest in arguing and waved it away from Lotus Flower Mountain.
"It's definitely not that simple to preach in peace of mind."
After seeing Randeng off, a hint of sorrow appeared in the good corpse's eyes.
