Two Great Techniques, Plans Begin
After recounting the matter of Ling Xiao, Laozi changed the subject and continued, "Right now, we still need to find a way to strengthen the demon race."
"If we could get those two wicked beasts, Di Jun Tai Yi, to join the demon race, the demon race's crisis would be much better," Yuanshi Shi said in a deep voice, once again thinking of these two destined demon race leaders.
Those two good-for-nothing brats, if it weren't for the Tribulation, he would have slapped them to death long ago.
"These two wretches have probably already been told the secrets of heaven by Ling Xiao, and they are determined not to undergo the tribulation. Unless you can go to the Sun Star and capture them, forcing them to submit, everything will be in vain."
Laozi said calmly that he had no plans for Di Jun and Tai Yi for the time being, and it was better to be pragmatic and consider other aspects.
Yuanshi's gaze shifted, and finally he let out a cold snort, "Then let these two wretches be smug for a while. The day the Tribulation ends will be the day they perish!"
"Hehe, perhaps by the Tribulation ends, they'll all have become saints." Tongtian suddenly spoke up, a strange smile on his face, slightly sarcastic, it was unclear who he was targeting.
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi immediately retorted.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Now that the Master has merged with the Dao, the Heavenly Dao's suppression of the laws is even stronger, and this path is completely closed. There is absolutely no possibility for Di Jun or Tai Yi to take the final step."
Yuanshi said in a deep voice, very firmly, that Ling Xiao was able to become Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal most likely because the Heavenly Dao's suppression of the laws was not strong enough, allowing him to take advantage of the loophole.
Now, it is completely impossible for Di Jun and Tai Yi to achieve the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal; there is no loophole left for them to exploit.
"That's right, Di Jun and Tai Yi don't need to worry too much. They are different from Ling Xiao. Their destiny has already been determined, while Ling Xiao is an anomaly, and anomalies are unpredictable," Laozi said.
"Right now, we must help the demon race recover and end the Witch-Demon Catastrophe as soon as possible."
As he spoke, Laozi got up and walked outside, ready to begin the next step of his plan.
The Sun Star.
[A Jieyin has been detected. Zhun Ti to plot against Mount Buzhou. Please make the following choice, host.]
[Option 1: Remain unmoved and continue with a steady approach; reward: the secret technique Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations!]
[Option Two: Intervene to stop it, sabotage the plan, and be rewarded with the secret technique Great Dream Heart Sutra!]
"Oh?"
Ling Xiao slowly opened his eyes. The long-lost system voice made his heart flutter. He glanced at the system interface, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.
"Jieyin, Zhun Ti plotting against Mount Buzhou?"
"Why would those two old bastards scheme against Mount Buzhou for no reason at all?"
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed, capturing infinite possibilities in a single thought.
"Angrily striking Mount Buzhou?"
"Did the Two Western Sages angrily strike Mount Buzhou?"
At this point in time, according to the original storyline, Mount Buzhou is also about to collapse.
However, in the original story, the collapse of Buzhou Mountain was due to the incompatible natures of the ancestral witches Zhurong and Gonggong, who fought fiercely. After losing, Gonggong became enraged and rammed his head against Buzhou Mountain.
This caused Mount Buzhou to collapse, resulting in a cataclysmic event that triggered the story of Nuwa Mending the Heavens.
With this in mind, Ling Xiao looked at the choices, and the first choice was the Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations.
This secret technique is extremely powerful; it can be described as an infinitely enhanced version of Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations.
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations contain thirty-six kinds of supernatural powers.
For example, the first transformation, Mediation of Creation, can bring something from nothing and bring the dead back to life. Nuwa Creates Humans.
Other abilities include Reversing Yin and Yang, Shifting Stars and Changing Dippers, all of which are great supernatural powers that can change the world.
Secondly, there is the Mending Heaven and Bathing Sun, which involves refining Five-Colored Stone to Mending the Heavens and allowing the soul to bathe in the center of the sun.
Standing Without Shadow: A defensive spell, said to be a great supernatural power that grants immunity to all spells.
There are thirty-six such supernatural abilities in total, which is a thousand times better than the minor tricks of the Seventy-Two Transformations, such as swallowing knives, spitting flames, summoning rain, and entering water.
However, at Ling Xiao's level, all spells are insignificant, easily used, and he has completely transcended the concept of spells, pursuing the control of the Great Dao Laws.
Ordinary spells are of little use to him, unless they are top-tier supernatural powers.
Ling Xiao looked at the second option, hesitated for a moment, and said, "System, I choose option two."
Jieyin Zhun Ti were plotting against Mount Buzhou, and upon closer examination, it's likely that Hongjun had a hand in it.
After all, given the style of the Two Western Sages, it's unlikely they would dare to attack Mount Buzhou without Hongjun's instigation.
The Pangu's Spine, which bears the weight of heaven and earth, is something they would never dare to do even if they had a hundred times the courage.
As for why Hongjun plotted against Mount Buzhou, the specific reasons remain unknown.
But he could guess that it might be related to Pangu.
In short, Ling Xiao felt that, regardless of their purpose, they should not be allowed to get what they wanted so easily.
After making his choice, Ling Xiao obtained the Great Dream Heart Sutra and immediately began cultivating in a meditative state.
The secret methods of the Dream Path are quite rare and extremely difficult to find. He wanted to see what was so extraordinary about these methods.
Generally speaking, the reward for luring him out is much better than the reward for staying put.
Over the years, he has long since figured out the nature of the system.
In other words, this secret technique called the Great Dream Heart Sutra is even more powerful than the Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations.
A little while later.
Ling Xiao slowly opened his eyes. A beam of light of law flashed as he comprehended the Great Dream Heart Sutra and also grasped the Law of Dreams.
"Excellent, a pleasant surprise! I never expected it to be so extraordinary..."
Ling Xiao muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his lips.
The highest realm of the Great Dream Heart Sutra is to dream of eternity, of One Dream, Three Thousand Worlds, and to create countless clones with a single thought, dominating infinite dimensions and controlling the endless beings of all heavens and myriad worlds.
Even Sage would covet such a level of secret technique.
With this thought, Ling Xiao entered a dream, transforming into countless forms, appearing in numerous times and spaces—past, future, and present—everywhere.
These countless clones can all help him cultivate and comprehend, so that when he returns, he will be even stronger.
Time flies, and before we know it, it's gone.
On this day, Mount Sumeru.
Jieyin slowly awoke from his meditation, a flash of brilliance in his eyes, and the halo above his head grew even brighter.
"Senior brother, how's it going? Shall we begin?"
Zhun Ti been watching closely. When he saw his senior brother wake up, he couldn't wait to ask him what was wrong. He could sense that his senior brother had become more confident and relaxed, which meant he must have a plan in mind.
Jieyin nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Everything is ready. My Dream Enlightenment Technique is now more perfect, and it will be foolproof."
In order to ensure everything went smoothly, he Dream Enlightenment Technique.
Now, as the saying goes, Heaven rewards those who persevere. His cultivation is progressing smoothly, his mind is suddenly enlightened, and his Dream Technique is advancing rapidly.
"Senior brother is truly talented! Let's not delay any longer and begin!" Zhun Ti praised with a beaming smile.
"Good!" Jieyin didn't say much, his gaze turning towards the direction of Mount Buzhou.
