Chapter 189 Severing Thoughts, Incarnation
The breakthrough made by the monk Mingxing was so significant that it attracted increasing attention.
With everyone present as witnesses, the monk Mingxing achieved something that was only recorded in ancient books.
One-day baby!
The monk Minghe, who was sitting cross-legged in place, felt a nascent soul emerge from the golden elixir and travel along the Ren meridian into the upper dantian, Niwan Palace.
That strange feeling captivated him completely.
"The Nascent Soul in this world actually forged my soul into one, transforming it into a perfectly still infant. If this infant were to grow, wouldn't it be similar to a Primordial Spirit? It seems that although the paths are different, they ultimately lead to the same goal. But why can they achieve the Primordial Spirit without needing to understand their own mind and nature?"
After Mingxing achieved the Nascent Soul stage, he was extremely happy, but also full of confusion.
Mingxing had previously fought against the incarnation of the Venerable Zhou Jianxiong, and at that time he was able to withstand several blows without being defeated using only his Buddhist cultivation.
This shows that although Zhou Jianxiong achieved the primordial spirit, his mental cultivation was far inferior to that of him.
If he also possessed the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator, Zhou Jianxiong would likely not survive a single move.
Before he could think it through, the Nascent Soul Tribulation was already upon him.
As the heavenly tribulation descended upon him, Mingxing's expression turned solemn. He thought to himself, "I specially cultivated this spiritual energy to see how you would react, but now it seems that the Heavenly Dao of this world doesn't possess much intelligence."
The thought of enlightenment had barely crossed his mind when the vertical eye between his brows suddenly opened again.
The moment the eye that the calamity manifested opened, everyone present felt a chill in their hearts.
"The moment those eyes swept over me, I felt like I was about to die..."
A Nascent Soul cultivator standing directly opposite Mingxing was now drenched in sweat, and in a short while a small, slightly yellowish stream of sweat formed at his feet.
After speaking, the monk looked at his companion with some disbelief.
But upon closer inspection, he realized that his companions were in no better condition than he was.
The same water stains formed at the feet of his companion.
The cultivator looked down and saw that several streams of sweat had appeared around him.
The sweat from the group pooled together, forming a small, yellowish puddle that faintly smelled foul.
"So I'm not the only one who feels this way; that Mingxing is definitely not simple! He shouldn't have had those eyes before. What's going on?"
Many shared the same feeling as this cultivator; even Huo Yunzi felt a chill run down his spine when he was just caught in the peripheral vision of the Eye of Heaven's Will.
The other cultivators fared even worse.
But before they could even calm down, an even more terrifying scene was unfolding.
In just a few breaths, the power of the heavenly tribulation was completely absorbed by the Eye of Heavenly Will.
Subsequently, this power of heavenly tribulation transformed into a pure stream of magical energy, which was then fed back to Mingxing.
This magical power was so immense that it caused Mingxing's physical body to expand several sizes.
The newly formed nascent soul in Mingxing Niwan Palace received this magical power and began to grow visibly.
Mingxing was horrified. Once he had fully absorbed this magical power, he might be able to enter the Nascent Soul stage!
It's not that the Heavenly Dao lacks intelligence; it's clearly deliberately elevating his cultivation level to make his blade even sharper.
This discovery completely extinguished the joy that Mingxing had felt upon achieving the Nascent Soul stage.
"Was my previous decision to cultivate spiritual energy truly my own idea? Or was this step also part of Heaven's calculations?"
Mingxing's mind was in turmoil for a moment.
"That's it! I cultivate my nature, not my destiny. My primordial spirit ascends to the Buddha Land, so I don't need spiritual energy cultivation. The Heavenly Dao must have figured this out and deliberately influenced my mind!"
"I absolutely refuse to become a blade in the hands of that Heavenly Dao! There must be a way to break free. If only I could sever this Eye of Heavenly Will from my body."
Mingxing's mind raced, considering various solutions, when suddenly his eyes lit up: "Chen Chunan! He's a successor of the Daoist school; he must possess many secret techniques, unlike my Linji sect, which lacks such methods. I must find him!"
The Eye of Heaven was still releasing its magical power continuously, and for a moment he found it difficult to concentrate.
It wasn't until a day later that they had fully digested the magical power transmitted from the Eye of Heaven.
As expected, the celebrity monk's cultivation level reached the Nascent Soul stage, and he could step into the Divine Transformation stage at any time.
If it weren't for the monk Mingxing's deliberate suppression, he would probably already be under heavenly tribulation by now.
After suppressing his cultivation, Mingxing let out a long sigh of relief, then stretched out his hand and tore open space, disappearing without a trace.
As for the onlookers, he didn't even bother to show a glance.
He had been practicing spiritual cultivation, and his five senses and six perceptions were far superior to those of his usual self.
How could he not know the malice of those people?
He simply had no time to deal with other matters at the time, so he let it go.
In an instant, the monk Mingxing appeared in front of the gate of courtyard number 18.
Chen Chunan returned silently the moment Mingxing appeared.
He then opened the courtyard gate and heard the monk Mingxing shout, "Master Chen, please help us today! Otherwise, disaster will befall us!"
Chen Chunan was completely baffled, unaware of Mingxing's earlier guess.
"Master Mingxing, what happened? Are you worried about those scoundrels outside?"
"No, no! This time, I have truly been struck by an unforeseen calamity!"
...
After the monk Mingxing revealed all his guesses.
Chen Chunan then looked at him with a strange expression.
"So you're practicing spiritual energy cultivation to see if the Heavenly Dao will fight back from the left and right hemispheres? Are you alright?"
Mingxing looked ashamed: "This was absolutely not my intention. It must have been Heaven's will that deliberately influenced my thoughts. By the way, I suspect that I should be the master of that new path. Master, you truly shielded me from disaster. I am truly ashamed."
Chen Chunan waved his hand: "It's alright, I suppose this is all part of Heaven's plan. Tell me what you intend to do. Are you going to ask me for the Taoist method of severing the Three Corpses to cut off this Eye of Heavenly Will?"
"Yes, yes, this humble monk knows that the Taoists have this secret method, and I thought it could be of great help to me."
Chen Chunan shook his head: "The Taoist practice of severing the three corpses is not done casually. What use is such a practice as guarding the Gengshen day to the Eye of Heaven?"
"Then what should this humble monk do?"
"Since the Eye of Heaven is indispensable to you, it's impossible to cut it off. But have you considered the method of creating an avatar?"
"An avatar?"
"Yes, I don't know about the Taoist avatar technique either, but it exists in this world. You can sever a part of your primordial spirit, entrust it to another body, and then refine it into Xuanhuang. Perhaps then you'll have a chance to transfer the Eye of Heaven's Will to that avatar, which would greatly reduce its impact on you, wouldn't it?"
Chen Chunan had seen the incarnation of the Daoist Master Shoucheng and had some understanding of this Dao.
This could very well solve the problem of how the will of Heaven influences the mind of monks.
As Mingxing listened to Chen Chunan's words, he gradually fell into deep thought.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Chen Chunan and his group have completed all the purchases they were supposed to make.
The monkey also came over early to greet Chen Chunan, informing him that he would be refining armor and clothing at Shenshi (3-5 PM) today, demonstrating the wonder of gathering and accumulating the five elements.
Chen Chunan stopped paying attention to the monk Minghe, who was still breaking through in his cultivation, and returned to his bedroom to focus on meditation and calm his mind to adjust his state.
I now have the opportunity to understand the wonders of gathering the five elements in advance, which will be of great benefit to my future cultivation.
