Option Two:

That is to create one’s own Dao and achieve immortality as the founder of that Dao. The highest level one can reach is the Quasi-Saint peak, with combat power weaker than Slaying the Three Corpse.

Option Three:

That is to follow the path of Merit Immortals, ultimately reaching the peak of Quasi-Saint as well, though the combat power is slightly weaker than creating one’s own Dao and naturally cannot be compared to Slaying the Three Corpse.

These three paths all have their advantages and disadvantages.

To create one’s own Dao and achieve immortality as the founder requires not only innate talent based on bloodline but also exceptional comprehension to independently understand a Dao and cultivate it to the limit, which is not something that can be easily achieved.

Among all the living beings in the Three Realms…

There are those like Great Immortal Zhenyuan, who opened the way for Earth immortal; Styx River, who opened up the Blood Sea Asura; Emperor Haotian, who controls the highest authority; the Supreme Elder Lord of Alchemy, Taishang Laojun… and so on.

in the era without the presence of sages, these figures represent the supreme powerhouses of the top tier in the Primordial World.

Now, let’s talk about the path of Merit Immortals.

Although there are no restrictions based on innate talent, it requires a great deal of time to accumulate enough merits. Furthermore, the combat power is even weaker than that of a Dao founder, let alone compared to Slaying the

Three Corpse.

The most representative figure is The Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, who is well known throughout the Three Realms.

Another is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who vowed to never become a Buddha until hell is empty and is also on the path of Merit Immortals.

Of course, as followers of Shimen, even when they have accumulated enough merits, they become a Merit Buddha instead of a Merit Immortal.

As for the most formidable…

Slaying the Three Corpse:

In terms of combat power, it is the limit below the level of sages and is also the most difficult method to achieve Quasi-Saint status among the three.

First of all, Slaying the Three Corpse… is not simply cutting something away, but rather refers to separating oneself from the past, the present, and the future in the river of time.

Secondly,

Even if you possess great determination, extraordinary divine power, and unrivaled skills to cut away past, present, and future corpses from the nver of time,

You still need three magic treasures capable of bearing time and space to carry your Three Corpse.

After doing this, your existence can no longer be found in the river of time, and you achieve the Quasi-Saint fruit position by Slaying the Three Corpse.

In the entire Three Realms, there is only one person who has completely cut away the Three Corpse… That is Tathagata Buddha of Shimen!

Tathagata Buddha follows the path of Slaying the Three Corpse and has successfully cut away the Three Corpse:

They are… the Past Corpse, Burning Lamp Buddha; the Modern Corpse, Amitabha Buddha; and the Future Corpse, Maitreya Buddha!

It is worth mentioning that there is a certain connection between this Burning Lamp and the one in the Primordial World, but they are not the same person.

After cutting away these three corpses,

Tathagata Buddha possesses the highest combat power in this world below the level of sages.

With such cultivation, if it were in the early days of Heaven and Earth’s formation, perhaps it could have competed for a share of the Hongmeng purple Qi that can make one a sage.

Slaying the Three Corpse, creating one’s own Dao, and becoming a Merit Immortal!

These are the three methods to achieve Quasi-Sainthood in this world. “Becoming a Merit Immortal is easy to achieve. With my current situation, if I want to become a Merit Immortal, I can easily do so by simply meddling with the Real World.”

“Whether it’s becoming a Merit Immortal or creating one’s own Dao, both can only reach the peak of Quasi-Saint but cannot reach the state of Perfection, and their combat power is somewhat lacking.”

Xuanqing became silent in his heart.

For him, it seems that there are three paths, but in fact, only ‘Slaying Three Corpse’ is left for him to choose.

“However, although Slaying the Three Corpse is formidable, it requires cutting away the past, present, and future three timelines, leaving only one true self.” “Would that ‘me’… really still be considered me?” Xuanqing muttered softly, with some hesitation in his eyes.

Truth be told,

He didn’t want to choose any of the three paths.

Even if Slaying the Three Corpse had powerful combat abilities and could achieve Quasi-Saint Perfection, it would erase some human nature to a certain extent, which he considered absolutely unacceptable.

Xuanqing has always believed that no matter how high his cultivation is, he is first and foremost a person, and only secondly a seeker of the Dao.

“Over in the Real World, there are some novels that fictionalize the process of becoming a saint by force. However, since I arrived in this world, I have never heard of anyone who has done so.”

A bitter smile appeared on Xuanqing’s face.

In those novels, the main characters often defy the heavens and then become saints by force, beating everything with overwhelming power.

He didn’t deny that he had thought about the so-called “Becoming a Saint by Force,” but the key was that there was no such path in this world unless he created it himself.

Or, from another perspective, both Slaying the Three Corpse and creating one’s own Dao can be considered as Becoming a Saint by Force.

Slaying the Three Corpse, forcibly cutting off the timelines of past, present, and future to attain transcendence and becoming the first person below the level of sages is not too much to claim.

Does this count as Becoming a Saint by Force?

Perhaps.

Some people might say that Becoming a Saint by Force is the kind where one endlessly cultivates their physical body to the point where they can shatter the entire Primordial World with one punch, thus achieving sainthood.

But in reality, when you absorb Primordial World’s spiritual Qi for cultivation and rely on the rules of the Primordial World, you can’t possibly have the audacity to think of shattering it with just one punch, can you?

However,

Xuanqing didn’t give up.

As a man with a cheat, if he doesn’t create a new path, then wouldn’t the cheat be wasted?

While Xuanqing was pondering the path of cultivation after Daluo Jinxian.

Suddenly,

“Disciple Dao Xuan requests to see Sir!” A message was sent over.
