Golden Crow Flesh, Ten Cave Heavens, Raising the Chessboard! (One More Chapter)
The rain is getting heavier.
In several low-rise neighborhoods of Chongyang City, the rainwater was already knee-deep, and the thunderclaps triggered the sirens of many cars parked on the roadside.
"The city is experiencing torrential rain. All residents are advised to take precautions and avoid going out."
Listening to the static on the TV,
The believers stood in a neat row, and the Divine Envoy of the Tianli Faction Sect looked solemn.
"The Divine Walker has been missing for a long time, and we have been unable to contact him in the Otherworldly Secret Realm, but just now..."
He looked around, a fanatical expression on his face:
"The great new heaven has given us a revelation: on the Double Ninth Festival, right here in this small world, fortuitous opportunity from an ancient era will reappear."
"The Apocalypse says that an Imperial Mausoleum burying the past will soon be opened, and a hidden era is about to begin."
"There you will find true Immortal Method, relics of the All Gods, and Supreme Treasure."
The Divine Envoy the voice to suddenly rise:
"There will still be a corner of the old world's heavens!"
The believers stared wide-eyed, their blood boiling and hearts pounding in the silence.
Heavens above! Heavens above!
The Divine Envoy the subject:
"Our Tianli Faction has been cultivating this land for countless years, with countless followers, Divine Emissary, and even the All Gods who oversee it!"
"Day and night, one after another, they fought on."
"Finally, a magnificent and vast new heaven has been created!"
His voice was passionate and stirring, resonating and calling out:
"The new heaven will eventually become the true Upper Heaven, protecting everyone and bringing peace and tranquility to the world—and a fragment of the old Upper Heaven can accelerate this process extremely quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Envoy's expression suddenly turned somber, and he punched his chest three times.
"When I establish a new heaven, become the embodiment of Upper Heaven, and become the true Heavenly Father —all those who have sacrificed themselves on this path are destined to return."
"Clad in auspicious omens and riding on celebratory clouds, personally guided by the Heavenly Father, you will return from the place where the dead rest. At that time, all living beings will congratulate you!"
Each believer looked solemn as they chanted in unison:
"Heaven above!"
Then.
From martial arts practitioners to Martial Arts Masters, and even grandmasters and high-ranking High Envoy!
Without exception.
They ripped open their chests and dug out their hearts.
Grandmasters and Great Grandmaster even voluntarily extinguished the furnace fire behind their heads.
Self-sacrifice.
The three Divine Envoy watched this scene in silence.
Watching everyone clutch their hearts, then a soft murmur:
"With my blood and bones, I beg for the creation of heaven and earth."
They perished, their souls returned to nothingness, and this time not even a remnant of their souls was born.
Blood flowed freely in this huge basement.
The three Divine Envoy each other look into their eyes.
One person said:
"Such a Grand Sacrifice, lasting a hundred days, will allow us to open a brand new sea route to the [World Plateau]."
Normally, each province has only one road leading to the outside world—and all of them lead to a majestic plateau, which serves as a transit point between the provinces.
Another person said:
"Although the new sea route won't last long, it's enough; it allows elders to descend along it."
"Although we don't know what the Imperial Mausoleum Tianqi spoke of are, we must fight for them!"
The three Divine Envoy clasped their hands together and sighed, "Heaven above!"
Eight Sceneries Palace.
[In the seventeen hundredth year, I cultivated diligently and finally ignited the ninth Cave Heaven. A drop of Divine Blood merged into it, unleashing a dazzling light.]
[As for this]
[I have already begun to enshrine a deity in each of the nine grotto -Cave Heaven]
[The Heavenly Venerate of Sin Removal, the World-Honored One, the Supreme Purity, and then the Six Great Heavenly Positions]
I will continue my arduous practice.
Nine Cave Heaven floated behind Zhang Fusheng, each reflecting a dazzling light, and within each one, a colossal figure was vaguely visible.
[In the 1900th year, and then another 200 years, I diligently studied the Great Sun True Scripture and the Ten Sages Scripture, and finally...]
[The tenth Cave Heaven -heaven is born]
[In the second millennium, I stood at the Innate Limit realm, attempting to comprehend the path to the Heavenly Human Realm.]
[Unfortunately, I failed—to attain Celestial Person and ignite the remaining 350 apertures, one must first endure the Three Tribulations.]
[The Celestial Person have already attained the ' Fruit Position]
Two thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.
When Zhang Fusheng opened his eyes again, there was a sense of detachment from the Mortal World, a coldness and vicissitude of being weary of everything and indifferent to all things.
This is an inevitable drawback of long-term ascetic practice away from the Mortal World —but...
The Contract Book is absolutely correct.
The feelings of alienation, indifference, and vicissitude vanished in an instant.
Zhang Fusheng exhaled, his breath carrying the weight of time and experience.
Ten Cave Heaven appeared simultaneously behind them.
"The Central Extreme Cult Master's Cave Heaven, the Supreme Purity Cave Heaven, the World Honored One's Cave Heaven, and the Azure Emperor's Cave Heaven."
He murmured softly, with regret.
"The World-Honored One's Cave Heaven is merely an illusion; it cannot be considered a truly sacred Cave Heaven."
According to the practice of the Ten Sages Scripture Texts, as long as ten 'True Saints' are truly enshrined in the ten grotto Cave Heaven,
Once one's cultivation Perfection, one can begin to forge Saint Golden Body for oneself.
The term "true saint" does not necessarily require one to hold a specific Confucian saintly position.
The Heavenly Position is also acceptable.
With the six Heavenly Positions, plus the position of the Central Extreme Cult Master and the name of Taiqing, Zhang Fusheng created a total of eight sacred Cave Heaven.
Two more are needed.
"The World Honored One's Cave Heaven either needs to find a true Buddhist celestial being, or it needs to wait for time to pass and accumulate the Incense and Fire Prayer Power."
"As for the last Cave Heaven?"
He was somewhat perplexed, unsure how to proceed with the offerings—he couldn't very well actually be making offerings to a deity from Different Dimension, could he?
That's like spinning a cocoon around yourself.
"Perhaps... Ziwei?"
Zhang Fusheng turned his gaze toward the Helplessness Bridge, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
Age of Great Strife is truly dawning.
Zhang Fusheng silently assessed the situation. The Golden Province was about to become independent, and people had even arrived from the capital. A major upheaval was likely brewing.
Meanwhile, in Chongyang City, the Divine Envoy of various religions gathered, and even Celestial Person were eyeing the city covetously, all waiting for February 9th.
But will something dramatic happen in Chang'an Town on February 9th?
Certainly.
Moreover, it is foreseeable that Chang'an Town is by no means an isolated case.
" In this Age of Great Strife, if True Intention the hidden plans of many immortals and Buddhas are beginning to surface, then Chongyang is merely a microcosm of it."
"How many other places across the forty-nine provinces of our Mother Star are experiencing similar events?"
"The Federation has clearly conquered the stars and the sea, so why is its main body still confined to its Mother Star?"
Zhang Fusheng was puzzled. Based on his understanding, most of the planets in the Federation's galaxy were used for farming.
True colonies are extremely rare, for reasons unknown.
"We must prepare well in advance."
"There are still many doubts."
Zhang Fusheng squinted, recalling that day on the plane back to Chongyang.
The invisible giant hand that kept shaking the plane in order to attack Li Yiyi and Luo Cheng,
That seemingly intangible giant hand had even lifted a boulder and hurled it, leaving behind eerily clear fingerprints on the rock.
It was as if there really was an invisible, intangible giant, lifting a stone and throwing it.
When Zhang Fusheng left Chongyang City, he made a fingerprint rubbing and gave it to Lin Changle so that she could investigate.
He didn't think it was possible to find out, but what if it was?
The results should be out in the next couple of days. If you need to call to inquire, you'll have to go outside the Chang'an Town area.
As his thoughts turned,
Zhang Fusheng sighed, then turned to assess his own situation—how to prepare for the Age of Great Strife that was about to arrive, or had already begun.
One must have absolute control over oneself in order to know which events one can get involved in and which events one should avoid.
"I currently possess two Supreme Treasure: the Helplessness Bridge and the Nail Head Seven Arrows Book. Although the Nine-Ringed Zen Staff has been returned to Old Shi, I can borrow it or even take it directly."
"However, the Nine-Ringed Zen Staff can only be used to its fullest potential within Longzhou City."
Zhang Fusheng meticulously sorted out:
"The Central Extreme Cult Master has already obtained the Heavenly Position and is spreading his influence extensively through the Luofeng Cult and the Nine Nether Cult. The title of Taiqing is mysterious and profound, and the name of the World Honored One is already being circulated."
"Now, with my ten Cave Heaven, as well as the divine chariot and immortal bow, even without the aid of Supreme Treasure, killing someone of the same realm should not be difficult."
"The most important thing is the relationship between Heaven and Celestial Person."
He frowned slightly, sensing that things were getting a bit tricky.
The Celestial Person is already a 'Fruit Position'.
To attain the status of Celestial Person, one must first undergo the Three Tribulations; after achieving Celestial Person status, one must then endure the Five Decays.
With each of the five periods of decline, one gains an additional Celestial Person Divine Ability, enabling the opening of seventy celestial Cave Heaven. Only after Five Decays have been experienced can all the acupoints in one's body be fully transformed into Cave Heaven.
That is, the Heavenly Human Limit.
This is the path of cultivation for those who enter the realm of Celestial Person and those at the level of Heaven and Celestial Person.
"According to common sense, one must face each of the Three Tribulations calamities for ten years, until one survives Three Tribulations."
"I don't have thirty years to wait."
The cultivation time could simply cover up thirty years.
But then another problem arose.
Covering something up is possible, but calamity must be experienced firsthand.
The Three Tribulations are thunder, fire, and wind.
They must undergo a great tribulation of heavenly lightning, followed by ten years of being bathed in thunder.
Having experienced a sudden Yin Fire, followed by ten years of being consumed by Yin Fire,
Finally, after experiencing Bì Wind his soul, he was subjected to the same wind that continued to erode his body for another ten years.
Thus, having endured the Three Tribulations, one can prove oneself to Celestial Person.
"Thirty years can be overlooked, but the suffering from the Three Tribulations must be truly endured by oneself."
Zhang Fusheng rubbed his temples. Whether it was the Great Sun Illuminates Seventy-Two Snow Mountains True Scripture or the Ten Sages Scripture Texts,
All of these Three Tribulations describe how the more powerful you are, the more powerful the calamities will become.
They are not allowed to use external objects or treasures to avoid or resist disasters—otherwise, it would not be considered a calamity, nor would they be able to attain the Heavenly Human Fruit Status.
"I can go and experience the tribulation of lightning right now."
"But it's always better to be prepared. What if you really get struck by lightning?"
"That would be such a waste."
He stood up from the cushion.
Zhang Fusheng pondered for a moment, then carefully took out the small amount of mixed-blood golden crow meat. As soon as he opened the wooden box, extreme heat was released.
Even though he now possesses ten Cave Heaven and has reached the Innate Limit,
His body was still being scorched by the terrifying heat, and even the precious blood flowing in his naturally indestructible physique was rapidly evaporating!
A mist shimmering with precious light gushed out from his mouth and nose.
This is only a level 4 star beast, just a tiny bit of meat from a mixed-blood Golden Crow.
"How powerful would the Whale-Penguin Ship, forged from the complete remains of a mixed-blood Kunpeng, be?"
Zhang Fusheng murmured softly, his heart filled with even greater apprehension. He gritted his teeth and tossed the mixed-blood golden crow meat into his mouth.
A massive burst of heat erupted.
His flesh was scorched and evaporated into nothingness, leaving only a skeleton in an instant.
The Body Furnace Fire engulfed in flames, displaying the Divine Ability of Regeneration from a Drop of Blood, but it couldn't keep up with the speed at which it was being burned!
Zhang Fusheng let out a muffled groan, drawing upon the eerie mist from the Helplessness Bridge to pour upon him, significantly reducing the terrifying heat and allowing his flesh to regrow.
It was at this time.
The golden crow's flesh began to be 'digested'.
The Contract Book was instantly cleared upon cooling, and a vast amount of divine essence permeated his limbs and bones.
He tried to visualize the Great Sun Illuminates Seventy-Two Snow Mountains.
And then, a huge sun actually appeared behind his head!
This time, it was not an illusory sun constructed from Mental Intent; it had already become semi-material!
I don't know how much time has passed.
Once the immense divine essence and the Daoist rhythm of the Great Sun have been completely digested by the Essence, Qi, and Spirit, spirit, and the Other Shore Bone.
When I opened my eyes again.
Zhang Fusheng's eyes were dazzling, like two Great Sun Golden Lamp!
Behind his head, a semi-real, semi-illusory great sun halo also shone in all directions, coupled with the Buddha-nature radiance of his innate Vajra physique,
He was just like the mythical Great Sun Buddha Ancestor.
"Miaoya?"
A small amount of mixed-blood golden crow flesh actually coalesced into Great Sun Golden Lamp in his eyes and a semi-materialized sun behind his head!
"Is this what mythical life is like? If even the hybrid golden crow is like this, what about the real golden crow of legend?"
"If one were to eat a piece of the flesh of a real golden crow..."
Zhang Fusheng swallowed hard, then smiled, his gaze sweeping across everything like Great Sun Golden Lamp.
He walked out of the Eight Sceneries Palace and arrived at the Five Villages Temple in one step.
With his head fixed on the great sun halo and his eyes burning with the Great Sun Golden Lamp, he stood before that truly magnificent Heaven and Earth Chessboard!
Then.
The ten Cave Heaven emerged simultaneously, the great sun wheel suddenly shone brightly, and the golden lamps also blazed brightly.
Reach out your hand.
Touch the Void.
Then grasp the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, and contemplate the Taiyi Chapter.
In the Great Sun Golden Lamp, fine star lines appeared—the star lines shone even brighter and more splendid under the illumination of the Great Sun Golden Lamp!
The Heaven and Earth Chessboard trembled.
This chessboard is so heavy that even the [Ancestor of Land Immortals] could not lift it.
Zhang Fusheng lifted him up like that.
Cause and effect are intertwined.
