Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 351 Judging Fate by Drawing Lots, Interpreting Destiny and Upholding Precepts

Jiangnan, Hidden Sword Manor.

Lu Yang's immortal spirit body was still hidden inside the stone sword, and in front of him were the pages of the [Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] and a bamboo divination tube.

"Giba. I want Jiba!"

As Lü Yang's eyes widened, he saw the fortune-telling container on the [Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] page shake, and then three gleaming fortune slips poured out from it.

Lu Yang took a closer look and his face immediately lit up with joy.

[Event: The final step in practicing the "Scripture of Spiritual Response and Sense of Mystery"]

[Xiao Ji: Although you lack comprehension, you were in good form today, and you quickly overcame the final hurdle.]

[Suekichi: Due to a lack of comprehension, you struggled for a long time on the final hurdle, but ultimately, through perseverance and willpower, you grasped the key.]

[Little Fierce: You don't have the talent; you haven't mastered it.]

"It's auspicious."

Without saying a word, Lü Yang picked up the "Minor Auspicious" fortune slip. The fortunes of the other two fortune slips disappeared immediately, while the "Minor Auspicious" fortune slip merged into his body.

After several months of experimentation, he has fully mastered the talent of "Fortune Telling and Lottery Drawing".

First, this talent can't be used indefinitely. Each use requires accumulating enough luck beforehand; only when you have enough luck can you trigger a draw.

'However, the more good fortune you accumulate, the greater the probability of getting a good fortune slip.'

Secondly, these fortune-telling methods are mostly supplementary; I cannot achieve things through drawing lots that are theoretically impossible for me.

For example, if he decides to challenge Angxiao to a duel now, even if he accumulates tremendous luck, the fortune he draws in the end will only be extremely unlucky. So strictly speaking, this talent only indicates the possibility of the future, and whether or not to choose is still up to Lü Yang himself.

However, in other words, anything that Lü Yang could theoretically do.

He can use his talent [Fortune-Predicting and Lottery-Drawing] to ignore the process and directly pre-determine the result, ensuring that he will definitely succeed!

"Unfortunately, it's not auspicious."

Lu Yang looked nostalgic. He could still recall the feedback he received more than two months ago after he unexpectedly drew a "Great Fortune" card.

It was truly divine assistance!
During this time, he has been practicing the "Sensing the Mysterious Spirit Response Scripture," a second-grade true skill created by the Sword Pavilion specifically for the [Mysterious Spirit Realm], which is extremely profound and mysterious.

This differs from the "Heavenly All-Encompassing Dharma Body," which only requires the investment of resources, while the former requires some ethereal enlightenment.

Therefore, Lü Yang repeatedly encountered setbacks in his study of the "Ganxuan Lingying Jing".

However, on the very day he drew the "Great Luck" card, he was in an incredibly good state, and could easily come up with solutions to any problem.

It's like taking a multiple-choice test and guessing blindly, only to find that you're right about everything.

For a moment, Lü Yang even had the illusion that his comprehension was comparable to that of Ancestor Tingyou, which shows how exaggerated the boost that [Great Fortune] had given him was.

"Never mind, Xiao Ji isn't out of the question either."

Lu Yang collected his thoughts. He had already reached the final stage of cultivating the "Spiritual Response Scripture," and a single [Minor Auspiciousness] was enough for him to overcome it.

"Whoosh!"

With a thought, a ball of flame appeared in Lü Yang's hand. This was the [Six Ding Divine Fire], one of the three great treasures Lü Yang obtained in the [South Heavenly Gate]. He had secretly kept it when he left, specifically for gathering Qi. Now, he had refined most of this fire seed.

"This [Six Ding Divine Fire] is a gentle fire."

"It is less the fire of the furnace used for alchemy and weapon forging, and more the fire of wisdom born from the thoughts and ideas of the human heart, which can make people quick-witted."

Soon, the spark was gradually absorbed by Lü Yang.

With the added benefit of [Minor Auspiciousness], Lü Yang had already grasped the outcome of his cultivation in advance, so his cultivation encountered almost no bottlenecks.

A moment later, a dazzling light appeared in his mind. "It's somewhat like a supernatural power."

Lu Yang looked at the iridescent colors in his sea of ​​consciousness. This was the product of the "Sensing Mysterious Spiritual Response Scripture" after it was completed. It resembled a supernatural power but was not a supernatural power, and it resembled a spiritual treasure but was not a spiritual treasure.

Its name is: [Precepts and Precepts].

Through it, Lü Yang also learned the name of the position in the Xuanling Realm, which is called [Siming], meaning that all things in heaven and earth have their fixed destiny.

In fact, the overall structure of the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] is just like this: the Heavenly Court is high-ranking, and the five immortals under its rule are well-ordered.

However, judging from the fact that the Heavenly Court of the [Mysterious Spirit Realm] failed to truly govern the world and control the fate of all living beings, this level of attainment probably still has room for growth.

Unfortunately, it had already suffered at the hands of the Holy Ancestor before that.

The result was naturally that the venture collapsed before it was even halfway done. Now, the Heavenly Court is divided into four parts, and the fruition has fallen into this world. It's only a matter of time before it's completely swallowed up.

As for "fortune telling and precept keeping," it is a wondrous practice derived from the "fate master" position.

What is fortune telling?

What is the meaning of upholding precepts?

"So-called fortune telling is actually a method of weaving fortune, which constrains limited fortune in one direction to maximize the effect of fortune."

“And keeping precepts is a method of restraining one’s fortune.”

"After receiving a fortune reading, one receives a precept. As long as one does not break the precept, one can maintain the blessing of the fortune reading. However, once one breaks the precept, one will immediately be devoured by bad luck."

Similar methods exist in the Xuanling Realm, but the effects are different. Although cultivators in the Xuanling Realm do not suffer from the destruction of their souls by the Bifeng, they are subject to the "calamity of Dao transformation." Therefore, they need to resist it by upholding precepts. This is one of the reasons why the Xuanling Realm has established strict immortal laws.

If I were to interpret my own destiny...

With a thought, Lü Yang's mind was instantly illuminated by the iridescent light in his sea of ​​consciousness. He then sensed it, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes:
"This person's destiny is [Pomegranate Wood]!"

This is the destiny chart that Lü Yang interpreted for himself.

"With this destiny blessing, I can establish a connection with the [Pomegranate Wood] fruit position, which will be of great use to my awakening of innate supernatural power and my future pursuit of gold!"

The only problem is the strict rules that need to be followed to maintain this destiny.

"From now on, I need to abstain from chastity. This is too much to ask of me!"

As Lü Yang received feedback from the "Fortune Telling and Precepts," he looked troubled.

Although I am not a lustful person, for the sake of spiritual cultivation, no matter how unwilling I am, I have no choice but to sacrifice my personal desires for the greater good!
Thousands of days later.

Lu Yang awoke from his meditation, opened his eyes, and a look of anticipation appeared on his face: "Finally! It wasn't in vain that I waited so long!"

The Demon-Slaying Master has come knocking!

This Foundation Establishment Perfected Grand Master from Sword Pavilion truly kept his promise, personally deducing cause and effect, and traveled thousands of miles to find the reincarnation of Lü Yang's divided soul.

The divided soul is already eight years old this year.

During this time, Lü Yang was not idle. He devoted himself to cultivation, digesting the gains within the [South Heavenly Gate], and his cultivation level had just reached the critical point.

"After the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, and the [Dharma Retention], comes Perfection!"

"The next step is to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation, thus officially breaking through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment! This is another major hurdle on the path of cultivation."

Heavenly Tribulation!
The Peak Master of Butian Peak died on this very spot; it was no joke, a near-death experience. Because of this, Lü Yang had made up his mind to make full preparations before attempting the attack again. After all, he had finally reached this point, and it would be a huge loss if he had to start over because he failed to pass the Heavenly Tribulation.

".Um?"

Just then, Lü Yang suddenly raised an eyebrow, turned his consciousness toward the split soul, and then grinned: "Interesting, it seems the previous arrangements have worked."
