Chapter 313 Perfecting the Way of Heaven
Chapter 313 Perfecting the Way of Heaven
"As a fellow dragon, the Dragon King can indeed absorb and refine the Dragon Ball and merge it with his inner elixir."
Several people were impressed at how early the Dragon King had planned. He actually obtained the Dragon Ball so long ago and found a way to communicate with the old Heavenly Dao. They simply integrated the medium of communication with it into themselves.
If the dragon clan had not been defeated later and he had not died together with the Fox Emperor in his dying struggle, the dragon ball in the Dragon King's hand would probably have been the biggest trouble.
Fortunately, by some strange coincidence, Qin Baiqing got the advantage now.
She held the three dragon balls tightly, and this time she did not hesitate and immediately began to absorb and recover them. After stripping away the aura of the Dragon King from the third dragon ball, she returned all three dragon balls to the Sanqing small world.
The Sanqing small world shook as usual, the small world expanded, and the inheritance became more complete. Qin Baiqing was used to it.
But only then, after the successful recovery, there was an abrupt sound in my ears.
【Ding--】
The system suddenly appeared and reminded Qin Baiqing to upgrade the system.
After Qin Baiqing pressed the confirmation button, the system made another "ding" sound and began to announce the update in a cold tone, telling Qin Baiqing that a new merit section had been added to the system.
The system, that is, the New Heavenly Dao, was inspired by the merits of the Three Dragons' residual thoughts and gained inspiration. It had a perfect aversion to its own small world under the rule of the New Heavenly Dao and used practical actions to answer Qin Baiqing's previous doubts.
...The immortal world is unlimited, and one day it will exceed the threshold of the world's tolerance. How will the way of heaven be balanced then?
The answer is merit.
[The Immortal Realm will no longer forcibly curb the cultivation of the Spiritual Refining Realm cultivators, but will add a new merit assessment. If one only cultivates magic power without cultivating merit, one will still not be able to ascend to immortality. The Immortal Realm will only accept people with virtue. ]
"Well..." Qin Baiqing heard the boasting and praise seeking behind the cold tone of the system, and patted the panel encouragingly and praised: "Well done, you are worthy of being my system. It can also learn independently. Very good, very teachable."
But Qin Baiqing was distracted.
For no reason, Duan Yao's embarrassed figure left before her eyes, and she suddenly felt that his support for the old way of heaven was actually a foresight!
After all, if we follow the trend of improvement of the New Heavenly Dao, with the behavior styles of people like Duan Yao... it is indeed difficult to become an immortal under the rule of the New Heavenly Dao.
If you don't support the old way of heaven, you probably won't have the chance to become an immortal in this lifetime.
Each of them was silent. The new Heavenly Dao had a perfect mechanism. Now was the time for them to try and show their abilities. After telling Qin Baiqing impatiently, they quickly said goodbye to her.
[The system is going to undergo a comprehensive upgrade, which will take a little longer. Don’t worry if the host cannot contact the system during this period. We will compensate you with the corresponding sign-in card afterwards~]
After that, there was no more sound, and Qin Baiqing was kicked out of the system space. Indeed, as the system said, all functions could not be used. No matter how Qin Baiqing tried, she could not contact the system.
After the Dragon Ball incident was concluded, the few of them dispersed again and returned to their respective sects to stay alert, ready to deal with any possible counterattack from the old Heavenly Dao forces at any time.
"What does this have to do with you coming to me for fortune-telling?" Xiao Xingyun asked calmly, standing still like a mountain.
"Calculate whether they will start a war during this period. I want to go into seclusion, but what if I accidentally miss it?" Qin Baiqing said as a matter of course.
"Don't you already know that my fortune telling is expensive?"
"...You calculated it well before I didn't know. Now just assume I don't know."
She insisted on having her fortune told before she would retreat, not mentioning the fact that Xiao Xingyun's money was expensive, and also forgot her recent decision to be nice to Xiao Xingyun. After pestering Xiao Xingyun to calculate the next move, and confirming that the Duan family and others would not act rashly in the short term, she finally decided to retreat to consolidate her improved cultivation after receiving the dragon ball.
At the same time, you can comprehend the deeper Tao of space.
After she went into seclusion, Xiao Xingyun appeared from the darkness and asked the empty space behind him: "Why must she go into seclusion?"
"It's not convenient for her to interfere in what happens next."
A calm voice sounded, and a person appeared shortly after the words fell. Feng Budu appeared outside the cave, looking at the closed cave with cold eyes, and a brief moment of deep thought flashed through his mind.
Xiao Xingyun did not comment. He walked past the cave and saw the stars twinkling in the sky again. The trajectory of the Heavenly Dao flickered before his eyes. The lines seemed to be converging. Something was brewing. Even the two Heavenly Daos that often fought in front of him suddenly quieted down at the same time.
"Calculate Zhu Fu's location." Feng Budu turned and left, instructing Xiao Xingyun: "Tell me when you find him, I'll go see the monk."
Ever since they parted ways, Zhu Fu has been traveling outside. Except for a few brief appearances in major battles, he is almost nowhere to be found in the world of cultivation.
After Feng Budu got Zhu Fu's location, he set out straight away and found Zhu Fu without stopping. He asked directly and firmly, "Can you see the merits of others?"
"Mr. Feng, I hope you are well." Zhu Fu, wearing plain clothes and cloth shoes, was walking in the world, tired and exhausted. He was a little surprised to see Feng Budu, bowed, smiled and chanted the Buddha's name.
He did not ask any more questions, but confirmed Feng Budu's question calmly. Feng Budu directly released his breath to signal Zhu Fu to look at his merits.
The sound of the Buddhist beads twisting stopped for a moment, and Zhu Fu's unchanging gentle smile revealed a hint of confusion, as if he had heard something incredible.
"The donor doesn't seem like someone who cares about merit," he lowered his head helplessly, and persuaded him kindly: "But it is a good thing to care about merit. Only when the heart is restrained can one act in accordance with the rules. A gentleman judges by deeds, not by the heart. As long as the donor wants to do good, even if he does it deliberately, it is a merit..."
Hearing this, Feng Budu became annoyed and urged Zhu Fu again.
There was a flash of Buddha's light in front of him. Zhu Fu's pupils became deeper. He looked at Feng Budu's head three feet above with compassion. Suddenly he smiled kindly and gave an answer that surprised Feng Budu.
"Half merit and half evil? I've done so many good things?"
Zhu Fu said nothing and continued to smile compassionately.
But half of the merits were obviously not enough to reach the ascension standard of the new heavenly way. Feng Budu was surprised and then began to think, rummaging through the chaotic memories in his mind, thinking of ways to eliminate the sins.
No... Feng Budu was suddenly stunned, his brows furrowed as he looked at his hands in deeper confusion.
Eliminating karma and increasing merits are far from being as simple as deceiving the way of heaven at will. According to past practice, I should have devoted myself to the old way of heaven as soon as possible. When should I start thinking about remedies?
The two became more silent. Zhu Fu continued to smile. His dark and shiny pupils showed compassion for the world. He lowered his eyes and lightly twirled the Buddhist beads.
Thousands of years of memories in his brain had been turned upside down. Feng Budu took a quick look and found a solution with mixed feelings.
The Goddess Shi Feng's Tears can wash away all sins. The Stone Tears are hard to find. They used to be located in Sanqing Palace, but they disappeared after the destruction of Taoism.
Another lost spiritual vein of Sanqing Palace.
