The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe

Chapter 30: Hongjun Became the Sage

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

1,000 years later, Minghe sat atop the Red Lotus of Fire above the immense Blood Sea. Endless blood aura and Spiritual Air were into his body like a vortex, refining every inch of him and strengthening his body.

The situation had been ongoing for 1,000 years. Previously he was too fixated on cultivating the Divine Law that he neglected his body. As his Divine Law cultivation had reached a bottleneck, it was the right time for him to cultivate his body, so that things would be balanced.

Minghe’s creation, The Arcane Way of Divine Beings, followed the Divine Law of the Rakshasa. Using the Divine Law to refine his body naturally had different effects on him. The Law of Killing was destructive in nature, allowing him to strengthen his physical form. The Law of Spiritual Beings was an anomaly and mysterious in nature, allowing his Rebirth with Blood Drops.

The Law of Heaven and Earth emphasized on strength and used the power of Heaven and Earth to refine the body. This helped strengthen the body and increase its power at the same time. With the power of Heaven and Earth merging with the body, it filled every movement of the body and could release an inexhaustible might.

Minghe thought that the Law of Blood should be renamed the Law of Flesh. It uses the Law of Blood to convert the endless blood aura from the Blood Sea into the purest blood of the Origin. Then, it would start strengthening and ultimately improving the quality of the flesh. Minghe really looked forward to it.

Minghe’s current power of Yang was different from the sun’s power. It did not have strong attacking capabilities, but it can condense the blood aura to refine the Red Lotus. Unless it was stronger than Minghe’s blood aura, ordinary magical power would not be able to break his defense.

"Huu!" Minghe slowly expelled his breath. The blood aura vortex gradually disappeared and Minghe finally reached the stage of merit fulfilled. He put away his Red Lotus of Fire and returned to the island. He nodded in delight when he saw Liuer and Chixuan still cultivating.

Both were talented and hardworking in their cultivation during the years that Minghe was away to refine his flesh. His disciples had lived up to his expectations. They were already at the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Peak realm. Success was just around the corner.

Minghe was thinking of testing their cultivation when music flowed in the air, flowers blossomed, and a thousand beasts gathered. Auspicious Signs were spread through Untainted Land, evolving in the Great Way. Countless rare spiritual treasures became spiritual entities in a sudden. Some even got the shapeshift.

Minghe’s pupils widened. This was... Had Hongjun become a Sage? Only the birth of a Sage could cause such a scene in the Untainted Land. What was meant to be would eventually come. It was only a matter of time. Instead of being fearful, Minghe was filled with excitements and expectations.

The minute the Auspicious Signs appeared, an immense pressure was felt throughout the Untainted Land and all creatures kneeled in reverence. A majestic voice said, "Above the nine clouds, on the cushion of Great Way. Other than Heaven and Earth, I shall rule over all. Pangu birthed Taichi, creating four heavenly creatures. One Qi transforms into Hongjun. I’m Hongjun. Today is the day that I have become a Sage. I’ll be giving a sermon in Zixiao Palace out of the 33rd Heaven. Fated people are welcome."

With a wave of his sleeve, the Great Formation for Defence on the Sacred Island was activated, isolating the pressure from the Sage. With such commotion, Liuer and Chixuan were jolted out of their cultivation. They thought Minghe was the best and never considered that producing such fierce pressure as possible.

They walked over to Minghe. Liuer asked confusedly. "Master, who is he? To produce such pressure?" Minghe replied. "It’s the first Sage of the Untainted Land. You should know those below the realm of Sage are all non-entities. Both of you stay on the island. I’m leaving for Zixiao Palace to listen to his sermon."

Minghe turned around after taking a few steps. "Liuer, don’t even try to eavesdrop on your Magic Skills. Being bound by Karma with the Sage is no laughing matter." Liuer rubbed his head in embarrassment. Were it not for Minghe’s warning, he would have done so.

Minghe rushed to Mount Buzhou after leaving the island. He decided not to bring Liuer and Chixuan with him. They had not reached the surname state, so it was pointless to even if they went. They could always listen to Minghe’s sermon, so there was not much of a difference.

...

On Mount Kunlun, Supreme Lord Laozi, Jade Pure One of the Origin, and Superior Lord Tongtian overlooked their domicile. Though they had worked together to block Hongjun’s pressure, their expressions were bitter having experienced the power of a Sage. Honoured Lord of the Origin asked, "Brother, do we need to go and listen to his sermon?"

It was no wonder they felt that way. The Three Pristine Ones were created from Pangu’s Original Spirit, thus they had the abilities to back up their arrogance. This was especially true for Honoured Lord of the Origin who saw himself as the second best next to Laozi, as they were the original descendants of Pangu. How could he suppress his hatred and jealousy, knowing someone had achieved the Great Way before them?

Making a final decision, Laozi said, "The one who attained Great Way first is the teacher. Let’s go and take a good look at the Way of the Sage." Honoured Lord of the Origin naturally would not say anything and Tongtian did not have an opinion, so the three of them left Mount Kunlun and flew directly to Mount Buzhou.

...

The Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery gathered in the Hall of Pangu. They did not think much of Hongjun becoming a Sage. They worshiped neither Heaven nor Earth, only Pangu alone. Moreover, they did not have the Original Spirit, so Sage’s preaching did not affect them.

...

The Ancestors of Sorcery may not be interested, but there were many who were. From the west came Zhunti and Jieyin. From Mount Buzhou came Goddess Nyuwa, Fuxi, Emperor Jun Dong Huang Taiyi, Zhenyuanzi, Hongyun, and Kunpeng. So on and so forth. Various individual cultivators started appearing and rushed to Mount Buzhou, afraid of missing the sermon.

The peak of Mount Buzhou was the Trayastrimsa Heaven of the Untainted Land. At this period of time, the Heavenly Court was not formed. What it had were numerous stars and brutally cold Astral Wind. Any mistake would be the last step to the Disintegration of the Soul. Higher up was the Divided Realm, the boundary between the Untainted Land and the Orbit of Chaos. It was necessary to pass that realm to enter the Orbit of Chaos.

The Chaos was filled with endless possibilities. Not to mention all kinds of sudden situations, the Air of Chaos was more than a person could bear. Without high cultivation and numerous spiritual treasures for protection, one could hardly enter the Chaos and reach Zixiao Palace. This was the first obstacle for those who wanted to listen to the sermon, enough to prevent a large number of people from proceeding.

Thereafter, a group of cultivators had gathered before the Divided Realm, with the weakest of them being Primordial Unity Golden Immortals. Most were in the realm of the Daluo Golden Immortal, but there were a few Sage-to-be cultivators among them.

When Minghe reached the Divided Realm, many cultivators had already gathered. He observed them and found there were Sage-to-be cultivators among them. It seemed there were many who cultivated with the Tao of Divine Law. Those people ought to be important figures.

Minghe did not rush headfirst into the Chaos. Instead, he began by observing. The danger was everywhere inside, even a tiny whirlpool was enough to kill. Even those with Sage-to-be cultivation had to tread carefully to survive.

Most stopped to observe, but there were impatient ones who tried to maneuver their spiritual treasures to bring them in. But as soon as they stepped into the Chaos, they were killed with no hopes of the reincarnation. This sight was enough to make everyone else hesitate, as no one liked serving their lives up on a platter.

As everyone hesitated, three figures stepped through the Divided Realm into the midst of the Chaos. One of the figures had a yellow pagoda above his head. The pagoda released endless golden light which protected them by deflecting the Air of Chaos.

Minghe naturally recognized these three people, especially the golden pagoda. Inside the pagoda contained the Merit of Origin. Minghe who had obtained half Merit of Origin was naturally familiar with it. It must be a PostCelestial merit, the Baraka Exquisite Pagoda. When the Untainted Land was formed, 30% of the Merit of Origin meshed with the mysterious yellow air materialized into the pagoda. It was a rare defensive treasure in the Untainted Land. Once it was activated, nothing could stand in its way.
