Master of Untold Daos-Chapter 392 - Improvement

Chapter 392: Improvement

It took Feng Lu quite the hours to search for the Sanskrit scripture, “I seem to recall that my master’s Master used to refer to it as Sin Searing Book, however, I am unable to understand its use. Not since I can’t read it…”

Chen Ming took it, Let’s see what system lady has to say about that. “Comprehend Sin Searing Book!”

“Ding! Requires nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine merits, continue?”

Can’t you just go for a million?

“Yes, direct comprehension!”

Chen Ming held the book, its pages flipping by themselves. Every marking and sign entered his eyes giving him a progressive shock.

This was a soul transcending scripture. He expressed his thanks then doubled back to the Scarlet Tide Continent.

Sin Searing Book allowed someone to form the Sin Searing Fire within. Its purpose was to cleanse departed souls off all worldly matters. In other words, it offered a peaceful death.

Departed souls would always be in a state of chaos, without any rime or reason to their thinking. They were under eternal anguish and torment. Sin Searing Fire could remove this from them and bring them peace.

Chen Ming didn’t much care about it. The Tree of Martyrs was fed souls so the living world could carry on. The Sin Searing Fire has to be supporting art, one that transcends the soul.

Chen Ming took out the Soul Bead as he stood beneath the bodhi tree, “In my name as Chen Ming, I forgive all your worldly sins!”

Chen Ming breathed out a white lotus flame and witnessed the sins being purged. The previously wailing souls now found their peace.

I’ll just take it as doing a good deed.

“The mortal coil brings with it much suffering. It is hard to maintain clarity and pass on. On the boundless Sea of Bitterness, if one would look back he would see the shore. Reincarnating for many times will bring with it all pasts worries. For one to live, peace is needed. It is said that the endless that give up being reborn are blessed through their offspring…”

Chen Ming recited from the Sin Searing Book and focused the white lotus flame on the Soul Bead.

When he cleaned it, he was shocked to find the Soul Bead ten times heavier.

What’s going on?

It’s Sin Searing Book’ effect!

Souls took the liberty to leave the Soul Bead one by one. A mass of souls swirled around the Heart Enlightenment Tree and bowed towards Chen Ming. They then entered the tree.

The stream of souls continued showing gratitude and then fed the Heart Enlightenment Tree. In but ten breaths all souls were gone and the tree leaves grew and became greener. The tree was growing, it was reaching for the heavens!

It grew and grew among the clouds, stopping only at a height of thousands of zhangs!

It bloomed and blossomed, then bore Heart Enlightenment Fruits. Chen Ming found some fruits had a jade texture and were bigger. The new kind of fruits were a bit more than five thousand, while there was now even more of the previous type.

It was the second stage of the Tree of Martyrs!

Curious about its effect, he reached for a jade fruit. It was smooth and fine like jade.

Its effect was multiplied!

Chen Ming began plucking them, I need to change the disciples’ crests. It’s good that there are close to a hundred thousand of the old fruits too.

The bodhi tree’s effect enveloped the entire Scarlet Tide Continent. I see now why everyone calls it the core of an Immortal Domain. The Tree of Martyrs purifies the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

Chen Lingyu was walking towards the smiling Chen Ming, “Of the five legacy disciples, I expected your head senior sister to be the first immortal. What a surprise that you were the first to enter the Immortal realm instead.”

Chen Lingyu rolled her eyes, “Is there’s anything better to do on this continent then cultivate?”

Excellent point…

Chen Ming said, “What do you think of the Tree of Martyrs?”

“I can feel it’s effect spreading throughout the continent. The comprehension of every inhabitant will rise. The cultivators will breakthrough on a massive scale.”

“Oh, why were you looking for me?”

“Master, the cultivators want to pay their respects to my junior disciples. They are even holding a grand march. It’s getting quite noisy!”

“Ding! You triggered a mission. How can a sect ruler such as yourself have just one generation of disciples? The time has come for you to recruit the second generation. Reward: 3 million merits.”

Wow! It’s 3 million this time, not bad.

The system is actually thoughtful and allows me to recruit three thousand new disciples. But since Yan Mountain disciples aren’t me, who can teach everyone everything, they can only take one each.

Chen Ming said, “Tell them that every ten years, they are to gather 1500 kids bellow 20 with the highest cultivation, then hold a competition to settle the other 1500 cultivators. The Yan Mountain disciples can then choose any among them as their disciple. The first in each batch will become my normal disciples.”

“It’s good that you’ve given in, if not, who knew how long would this racket last. Now everything will go back to being peace and quiet.”

“Right, I’m passing you the Sin Searing Book. It’s a soul transcending scripture.”

He then went to guide Ling Xian on his Dao Canon and Li Suyi on the Everlasting Demonic Dao. He also changed everyone’s crest into the one made out of the jade fruits. Chen Ming was beginning to feel like wanting to tour the Galaxy again.

He couldn’t let his cultivation stay at the bottom. If I do, those legacy disciples will hang me out as a punching bag.
