Bidding Farewell to Heavenly Venerable Fanti
"All the common sense that we used to have will no longer apply. It's a state I find hard to describe."
"However, if I had to say, you two have already gotten a little bit off the mark."
The Heavenly Venerable Fanti stretched out his hand and pointed at Shi Mang and Lin Yunji.
"That's what I meant when I said my experience might not be applicable to you."
"Your words are currently between the first and second stages."
The Heavenly Venerable Fanti Vajra addressed the Shi Mang.
"As for you, you Proving the Dao through Strength. Your situation is even more special."
To Proving the Dao through Strength, if one had to say, is not the true path of cultivation.
Instead, he took an unorthodox approach and went down a crooked path. Personally, I can't offer much advice or guidance, but I have seen other powerful figures Proving the Dao through Strength.
Most of them continue to hone their physical bodies and build up their combat strength!
The saying goes, "One force can overcome ten techniques." Pure combat strength alone is enough to turn the rotten into the miraculous.
"The specifics are something you'll have to experience for yourself. But that's the general idea," Heavenly Venerable Fanti said to Lin Yunji.
Lin Yunji nodded thoughtfully in response to the words of the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
The words of Heavenly Venerable Fanti gave him a great reminder!
He seemed to have been caught in a blind spot.
He had always been wondering, searching for the path to follow after becoming the Supreme.
But at that moment, Lin Yunji seemed to suddenly have a jolt of realization!
Why would he do that?!
There's absolutely no point in doing this!
In contrast, there was clearly a ready-made path right in front of him!
He has only cultivated the Universe Furnace Cultivation Method to the third level!
To date, the highest number of layers in the Universe Furnace is four!
Isn't this the path he should take to move forward?!
If he manages to cultivate the Universe Furnace Cultivation Method to the fourth level, his realm will naturally break through!
Lin Yunji had absolutely no clue how to break through the fourth level of the Universe Furnace.
Although they hadn't made any progress on breaking through the fourth level of the Universe Furnace, at least they were no longer completely lost.
He was just overthinking things.
In fact, he didn't need to think too much. He just needed to continue cultivating the Universe Furnace Cultivation Method!
The Universe Furnace Cultivation Method is a Great Dao that others cannot learn!
"And what about the third stage?" Shi Mang asked again.
"The third stage is just my guess, because I myself haven't reached that level."
"Heavenly Venerable Fanti said."
"I call this stage 'Perfection '!"
This stage shouldn't actually be connected to the second stage.
Because the third stage is purely about combat strength.
"Perfection and without flaw, purely a contest of strength," said the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
"In fact, Proving the Dao through Strength, to some extent, equivalent to moving directly from the first stage to the third stage."
"Senior, I've met two people."
At this moment, Lin Yunji couldn't help but interject.
"The two of them give me a somewhat similar feeling."
I don't know if this is the second stage of the Supreme Primordial Unity that the senior mentioned.
Tell me about it.
The Heavenly Venerable Fanti nodded slightly and spoke to Lin Yunji.
"One of them, she was just sitting there, but the entire realm, all space and time, seemed to have lost their meaning."
Only desolation and cold.
Yes, in the world, only these two concepts remain.
She sat motionless inside the dojo, but another Supreme of considerable strength couldn't even manage to walk up to her.
"There's another person. I didn't use Primordial Expanse Supreme Treasure. When I fought him hand-to-hand, he seemed to alter the order of space and time, which was extremely strange," Lin Yunji said.
He was referring to Ice-Cold Supreme Venerable and Kunsheng.
"That's right. If I'm not mistaken, the first person is extraordinary, definitely at the peak of the second stage, and may have even reached the third stage."
The person behind him is most likely only at the second stage.
"Mm." Lin Yunji nodded.
Now he felt more confident.
"Then, senior, how can we reach the second stage, or even the third stage?" Jiu Lu asked again.
"This is something I cannot teach you."
"You need to cultivate and comprehend it yourselves. This is what I mean by 'it can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words!'" said the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
"I see." Jiu Lu felt a little embarrassed and disappointed.
"By the way, senior."
As if he had just thought of something, Lin Yunji took out the Great Slaughter Divine Halberd.
"This item was obtained by me from the Gate of Life in the Great Array, so I will return it to its rightful owner," he said, holding the Great Slaughter Divine Halberd.
This item is quite extraordinary.
However, since it belongs to the Heavenly Venerable Fanti, and since the Venerable Vatican is still alive, it should naturally be returned to its rightful owner.
Shi Mang also took out a large seal. It seemed that this was the treasure he had obtained from the Death Gate Formation.
However, in response to Lin Yunji and Shi Mang's actions, Heavenly Venerable Fanti simply waved his hand.
"You don't need to return these two items to me; keep them for yourselves. Consider them a small gift for your visit."
"But..." Lin Yunji said subconsciously.
But before he could speak, Heavenly Venerable Fanti laughed, "You don't think I lack precious treasures, do you?"
"Don't worry, I don't have many opportunities to use the Great Slaughter Divine Halberd and the Mystic Origin Treasure Seal anyway. I have other treasures to use."
Otherwise, I wouldn't have used those two to suppress the Life and Death Formation back then."
"This..." Lin Yunji and Shi Mang exchanged a glance, then bowed to Heavenly Venerable Fanti in gratitude, "Thank you, Venerable!"
The Heavenly Venerable Fanti is truly a very good person.
When Lin Yunji broke through the formation, they were not only not made things difficult, but were also given answers to their questions and even treasures.
In these respects, Lin Yunji couldn't help but feel deep respect for this senior figure from the Ancient Realm.
At the temple of the Heavenly Venerable Fanti, Lin Yunji chatted with the Heavenly Venerable Fanti for a long time before taking their leave.
Before leaving, Lin Yunji and the others asked Heavenly Venerable Fanti if they would like to go to the Source Realm. However, the latter refused.
"I am the Lord of the Astral Realm the Vermilion Bird Grand Venerable Star Domain, and this is my Daoist temple."
All my disciples died here. I cannot bear to part with them.
Besides, I'm currently in a state of half-death, and it's inconvenient for me to go out. It's better to stay here and continue my cultivation, until the day I truly defy death and live again.
"That will be the time when my Daoxing is complete, and I will leave the pass to seek revenge on that thief!" said the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
Heavenly Venerable Fanti was unwilling to leave, Lin Yunji and the others naturally couldn't force him. So they could only take their leave.
After leaving the temple of the Heavenly Venerable Fanti, Lin Yunji returned the way they came.
On their way, they encountered the corpse monster that Chang Yanzi had transformed into!
Unlike before, he seemed to be wandering aimlessly, like a walking corpse, looking both terrifying and pitiful.
