Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1029 Angxiao's Method

[The Human World].

The sea of ​​mist, which could bring peace, make one forget oneself and the world, and then enter a state of enlightenment, spread out again, and a figure could be vaguely seen floating in it.

After an unknown amount of time, a pair of eyes finally opened from the sea of ​​mist.

"No, it's not that there was no follow-up."

Holding the "He-Transformation Freedom Heart Demon Sutra" given to him by Lü Yang, Ang Xiao's eyes revealed a sudden realization: "So that's how it is, the prerequisites were not yet fulfilled."

"Inner demons are illusory things, they do not truly exist, and they have no basis for existence. Therefore, the [Heart Demon Transformation Sutra] is naturally useless. If you want it to truly be effective, you must first create inner demons, let them ravage the sea of ​​light, and poison cultivators. This is also a symbol of calamity."

Thinking of this, Angxiao frowned.

After a moment, he shook his head and chuckled, "That mysterious fellow Daoist should have a way to solve this problem, but given his situation, it's impossible for him to help me."

"They might be trying to use this to manipulate me."

"However, on the other hand, that fellow Daoist is hiding his true nature far too well. He has no karmic connection whatsoever, and despite his extremely high cultivation level, I don't even know his Daoist name."

Angxiao is not in a hurry.

In today's world, there are actually very few problems that Dao Lords cannot solve. Even inner demons are something he can deal with.

That is 【straight and crooked】.

The Great Dao he attained through emptiness can reverse the two poles. He once used the Great Forest Wood as his foundation to sense the Earth of Chen, and then used the Curve and Straight to change the Yin and Yang attributes.

The same principle applies now. With the "Heart Demon Transformation Sutra" as a foundation, he can use the same trick again to transform the state of the "heart demon," turning it from "illusion" to "reality." In this way, he can naturally meet the cultivation conditions of the "Heart Demon Transformation Sutra."

However, there is still one problem.

'The [Curved and Straight] rank is lowly; to reverse the existence of inner demons, I must restore this great path to the mortal realm. Doing so carries considerable risk.'

He hasn't forgotten his situation.

Although he escaped the Underworld by taking advantage of the good fortune and had abandoned this route, he still had to pretend that he was still determined to stay in the Underworld.

Otherwise, the Holy Ancestor would be very unhappy.

The "Curve and Straight" is such proof. As long as the position of "Curve and Straight" is still downward, it proves that he has not given up the path to the underworld.

However, if he were to create a demon in his heart and bring [Curve and Straight] back to the mortal world, and then use this to sense the calamity, it would be like telling the Holy Sect's patriarch that he would not seek help from the underworld. He would be very worried that the next time he enters the mortal world, a giant hand would fall from the sky and kill him.

"It's a calamity; that old man wouldn't have left it unplanned."

"With my current size, I am definitely the number one variable below the Dao Lord. If I were to seek tribulation, it would inevitably affect that old man's plans."

At that time, he will likely be dead without a doubt.

".hehe."

Angxiao chuckled lightly, showing no fear whatsoever, even finding it delightful. After all, what truly terrified him was never the long and arduous journey.

Rather, they had nowhere to go.

"In this respect, I should thank that mysterious fellow Daoist."

Thinking of this, Angxiao became more and more excited. Since the road ahead is long and arduous, he would forge ahead and there would eventually be a day when the clouds parted and the sun shone through!
'This matter cannot be accomplished by me alone.'

Compared to the underworld, which he had practically worn smooth over countless years, calamity was clearly a new concept, one that he understood very little about and could hardly plan against.

'I need someone to guide me.'

The image of Lü Yang suddenly flashed through Ang Xiao's mind. After a moment's thought, he shook his head: 'Not yet, that person's cultivation is still insufficient.'

Although it's unclear how the other party knew about the existence of calamities, their cultivation level is what it is, so knowing more is useless. Their perspective is ultimately from a lower cultivation position. If they want to truly understand calamities, they still need to find those adults who reside on the "other shore," high above, looking down on the present world.

【Angxiao】Calm down.

Deep within his memory lies a seal, where his most important memories are buried, and these memories will only be unlocked on the eve of his journey to the underworld.

'Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes.' With the path to the underworld severed, the corresponding memories are naturally useless. Instead, they should be extracted to see if they can be transformed into resources for seeking tribulations.

Let's lift the lockdown early.

Upon realizing this, [Angxiao] immediately activated his divine sense and forcefully crashed into the memory seal. With a loud bang, the seal shattered, and the memories surged out.

In an instant, the flood of memories contained a vast amount of forbidden knowledge, causing [Angxiao] to feel as if he had fallen into an endless abyss. A strong sense of suffocation swept over his entire body. It was only because his cultivation was high enough and his Dao heart was firm that he was able to recover after a few moments, and a slight pain came from between his eyebrows.

"So that's how it is. He really is the World Honored One."

He had previously thought that the World Honored One and he were on the same side, but now that he has digested the sealed memories, he realizes that the two are actually closer.

However, everything comes with a prerequisite.

He wouldn't believe any nonsense about "the Buddha being a good friend of those who practice Buddhism."

'I pray to the Underworld. The World Honored One will undoubtedly support me fully, because it has nothing to do with the 'Other Shore.' But what about praying for tribulations? Will the World Honored One still support me then?'

Putting everything else aside, according to that mysterious fellow Daoist, of the four Immortal Pivot Dogs, only the World Honored One does not wield the Five Great Heavenly Numbers. Given this, could he possibly covet the Tribulations? If so, would he sit idly by and watch me witness the Tribulations? Perhaps he's even plotting to secretly kill me.

You can guess the answer to 【昂霄】.

'Given the Buddha's character, he might outwardly support me, but then suddenly convert me when I'm about to achieve enlightenment, usurping my place and seizing control of my destiny.'

Why not kill two birds with one stone?

'Although a perfect Dao heart can withstand the Buddha's salvation, it is not absolute. As long as the Buddha is willing to spend time and effort, I certainly cannot stop him.'

Not to mention the "soil on the city wall".

If the Buddha truly wanted to act, wouldn't it be difficult to use the "soil from the city wall" to change the cause and effect, and fabricate a cause that "Actually, Angxiao had already been converted"?
It's impossible to guard against!

Angxiao frowned, deep in thought, but finally took a deep breath and made his decision: 'The path of the World Honored One must still be followed.'

Admittedly, this path is fraught with risks.

On the other hand, the World Honored One is indeed the only Dao Lord who might support the cultivation of the lower realms, so he has to take this risk and can only gamble with his life.

The next second, [Angxiao] made a hand seal.

Immediately afterwards, his thoughts traversed thousands of mountains and rivers, and through layers of void, landing in the Immortal Pivot Jiangxi, and into the body of a heretical bodhisattva sitting cross-legged.

【Bodhisattva with Dragon and Snake Coiling Around Her】!
"Amitabha Buddha. Thus have I heard."

[Angxiao]'s divine senses surged, and he uttered the secret code he had agreed upon with the World Honored One. The next second, layers of colorful light suddenly rippled out in his sea of ​​consciousness.

【Soil from the city wall】!
The supreme fruit position hidden deep within the Pure Land was activated at this moment, filled with colorful light, and instantly entered the causal network with the divine thought of [Angxiao].

[Angxiao]'s consciousness rapidly ascended within the great web of cause and effect.

He is tracing back the cause and effect.

A hundred years ago, a thousand years ago, five thousand years ago, ten thousand years ago, thirty thousand years ago—until a very familiar cave appeared before his eyes.

That was back when he was still a Qi Refining cultivator, in the Holy Sect's cave dwelling.

In a daze, he seemed to see an innocent child excitedly playing with a small white jade box until someone snatched it away.

The man snatched the small box, ascended into the clouds, and then arrived before him in the scene of cause and effect he had just returned to, a smile playing on his lips.

"Fellow Daoist wishes to see me?"

'World Honored One.'

Angxiao narrowed his eyes.

At this moment, the entire landscape of cause and effect stopped rotating, as if a great will descended from the infinite distance and gazed leisurely toward him.
