Chapter 587: Chapter 379: Six True Scriptures, Just Going Through the Motions?
Upon hearing Gu Yuan’s words, the Golden Core cultivators all showed a renewed spirit.
"Wealth, companions, law, and land" — Each of these four words is an indispensable element on the path of cultivation.
Especially the True Scripture, which is the supreme skill that can directly point to the Primordial Image, with each book containing unbelievable transformations, the crystallization of the wisdom of countless sages and great figures.
Before the attack on Jiuyi Mountain, the Daoist School only had three True Scriptures, which speaks to their rarity.
If not for Master Yunyang’s resolve to destroy the Celestial Demon Sect and the strategy of breaking the Thousand Scripture Pavilion at any cost, coupled with magical combat and other schemes, it would have been impossible to obtain two True Scriptures from the Thousand Scripture Pavilion.
Even though the Thousand Scripture Pavilion has profound foundations passed down for thousands of years, with no shortage of True Scriptures, to hand over two at once is still a heart-wrenching sacrifice.
"Aside from the two True Scriptures from the Thousand Scripture Pavilion, the Celestial Demon Sect has three other True Scriptures."
"That cloud sparrow of the Heaven-Burning Mountain Range unsuspectingly became a Demon King, and the demon country within the mountain is apparently its plaything, possessing only a few mysterious techniques, with no profound mystical skills remaining."
"The Dipping God Sect, apart from one True Scripture, also contains a few unique mysterious techniques."
"I have imposed restrictions on these True Scripture Techniques for you as Golden Core Cultivators, with extraordinary status, to study freely and verify your cultivation."
"However, remember not to be greedy. One must be cautious and prudent!"
As Master Yunyang advised, he waved his sleeve, and in an instant, a row of jade scrolls and stone books shimmering with spiritual light emerged.
"The Thousand Scripture Pavilion, under my strong request, transformed the original two demon cultivation methods into one demon and one profound."
"The Demon Scripture is the ’Seed Demon Divine Fetus True Scripture,’ an extremely malevolent text, requiring a cultivator to take a newly deceased infant, and using a secret technique to implant a demon seed by inserting a strand of divine soul, refining the child into a ’Divine Embryo.’
"Once you have the ’Divine Embryo,’ you can kill cultivators, and for each one killed, you can seize an ’Innate Spiritual Light’ from their body, merging it into the Divine Embryo."
"This ’Innate Spiritual Light’ is a combination of comprehension and root bone; the more you fuse, the stronger the root bone and comprehension of the ’Divine Embryo’ becomes, continually growing."
"With the fullness of time, the cultivator can abandon their original body, allowing their soul spirit to inhabit the ’Divine Embryo,’ commencing cultivation anew in an infant form."
"Though appearing as an infant, the ’Divine Embryo’ allows for rapid progress in cultivation, with incredible potential."
"However... to complete the ’Divine Embryo,’ transforming death into life requires a vast amount of ’Innate Spiritual Light,’ and the soul spirit’s inhabitation of the ’Divine Embryo’ is fraught with great tribulation, deemed a grand calamity."
"Throughout the Thousand Scripture Pavilion’s history, only the first Pavilion Master succeeded in cultivating this scripture, while others have not been successful."
"Despite Celestial Palace’s suppression, the strange nature of this method is evident."
"The Thousand Scripture Pavilion’s purpose in offering this scripture is self-evident."
Master Yunyang explained this scripture to everyone, shaking his head and sighing.
The depths to which this scripture delves into demonic possession and its extreme malevolence render it useless.
"Besides this scripture, the Thousand Scripture Pavilion has also presented the ’Mountain-Absorbing Primordial Scripture,’ an Earth Element Technique. A cultivator can harmonize with the mountain and use Mountain Qi to cultivate, with unfathomable mana, and in battle, greatly increasing mana."
"Moreover, this scripture contains the Mountain-Absorbing Seal, while not particularly remarkable, can reach the Primordial Image Realm, suitable for disciples with Earth Vein Dao Bodies."
Master Yunyang’s speech continued as he extracted another jade scroll to elaborate to everyone.
After all, these are "war trophies," unlike their own heritage, prompting Master Yunyang, as a Late Stage Daoist Embryo and head of the school, to first observe the scriptures to ensure there are no "unruly" elements that could endanger lives.
The sight of the ’Mountain-Absorbing Primordial Scripture’ left everyone visibly disappointed.
No one present practiced the Earth Element Technique.
The Thousand Scripture Pavilion likely saw through this, deliberately ensuring the Daoist School didn’t gain increased strength.
Yet, this scripture complements what the Daoist School currently lacks, adding depth to its foundation.
"The three True Scriptures obtained from the Celestial Demon Sect are the ’Flame Devouring Seven Spirits Transformation,’ ’Taiyin Purification Moon Scripture,’ and ’White Bone Formless Scripture.’
"The first two are Demon Race cultivation techniques, absorbing Heaven-Earth Spirit Flame, drawing in Taiyin Moonlight, strengthening bones, increasing Demon Qi, and enhancing Divine Power. Although of the Demon Race, the creators of these scriptures had profound understanding of Fire Element Techniques and Taiyin’s Dao. In your leisure time, you may benefit from studying them."
"As for the last scripture, although named ’White Bone Formless,’ seemingly malevolent, it is the Profound Sect’s Mysterious Skill. This method uses bones to enter the Dao, subtly transforming a cultivator’s root bone, ultimately allowing for the conversion of the Dao Body, containing the extraordinary Formless Bone Seal."
The Celestial Demon Sect, ultimately destroyed through warfare, preserved its True Scriptures intact, carefully selected, and more profound than the two offered by the Thousand Scripture Pavilion, warranting Master Yunyang’s praise.
Gu Yuan listened, pondering the thoughts evoked in his mind.
These scriptures indeed have their merits, harmonizing with his cultivation for mutual validation.
"The True Scripture from the Dipping God Sect is named ’Barbarian God Heart Scripture,’ focusing on the cultivation of the Divine Soul, yet its method is exceedingly unique, requiring the establishment of a sect and enlightening a tribe for stable practice."
"I was puzzled that even in the impoverished land of the Dipping God Sect, a cultivator could break through to the Daoist Embryo. It now seems the inheritance was bestowed upon the Barbarian Race."
"You may study this scripture, but it must not be cultivated!"
