Refining the Dao into Godhood: A Tale of the Jie Sect-Chapter 56 "The Will of All Beings, Painting Pie Technique" (2nd Update)

Chapter 56: Chapter 56 "The Will of All Beings, Painting Pie Technique" (2nd Update)

Soon, good news came from the Thunder Dao Avatar; following the trail of Hou Yi who hunted the ten Golden Crows, he successfully found the corpses of the nine fledgling Golden Crows.

"Go and find Sui People!"

After contemplating, Xuanqing instructed the Thunder Dao Avatar to go to the Ancestral Land of the Human Clan and seek "Sui People", as only he could utilize the nine fledgling Golden Crows’ corpses to their utmost potential.

Whether it’s refining myriad thunders in the "Innate Thunder Pool" or refining myriad fires with the "Sui Fire", both are Xuanqing’s explorations and attempts in the Refining Dao.

However, the current evolution of the "Innate Thunder Pool" has deviated from his expectations, and he could only let "Sui People" explore how to merge myriad fires.

Perhaps, there will be a different harvest!

As for whether the corpses of the nine fledgling Golden Crows would bring trouble to "Sui People", he had considered that too. The clash between the two peerless great formations of the Witch and Demon Clan had erased all causal traces. Even Emperor Jun, with the "River Map" and the "Luo Book", and with the help of Fu Xi, would not be able to find a single trace.

"Where exactly did the error occur?" Xuanqing pondered incomprehensibly, sitting idly for many months, until a thunderclap resounded through the sky, and he had a sudden epiphany: "It’s the Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulation! Although the various Innate Divine Thunders in the Innate Thunder Pool, such as the Devastating Divine Thunder that is said to be the origin of myriad thunders, can be considered extraordinary, they are merely a force of origin. They need an unparalleled power to fuse them together!"

Originally, he used the "Innate Eight Diagrams" to aid, and the "Creation Furnace" as the foundation, to merge the "Taiqing Divine Thunder", "Yuqing Divine Thunder" and "Upper Pure Divine Thunder" into one, evolving the "Xuanqing Divine Thunder".

But now, although the "Innate Thunder Pool" can bear myriad thunders, its own strength alone is not enough to refine the dozens of Innate Divine Thunders into one.

Xuanqing needs to borrow external force.

And to Xuanqing, the best external force is the Heavenly Tribulation he will face upon ascending to the Daluo Realm.

"I understand now!"

Xuanqing proclaimed with ecstatic madness: "Heaven and Earth as the furnace, creation as the workmanship, borrowing the power of Heaven and Earth to refine everything, this is the essence of the Refining Great Dao!"

The Innate Eight Diagrams themselves represent the embodiment of the eight powers of Heaven and Earth, and his previous refining of the three Divine Thunders was due to inadvertently leveraging these eight Heaven and Earth powers.

With this realization, he no longer dwelled on the issues of the "Innate Thunder Pool".

For he knew that the time of his ascension to a Daluo Golden Immortal would be when the origins of myriad thunders converge.

Afterward, he turned his thoughts to several other Great Daos.

Since the last time he heard Nuwa expound on the basic logic of the Heavenly Dao’s grand trend in Taixu Heaven, Xuanqing had a clear understanding of what he needed to do.

He needs to guide all beings to first receive benefits, gradually accept his path, and slowly leverage the will of the masses, to steer the grand trend of the Heavenly Dao towards the future he desires to see.

The technique of Painting Pie!

At this moment, he couldn’t help thinking about the Grand Vows made by the two Saints of the Western Sect, forty-eight Grand Vows, each a grand promise painted for the beings of the Primordial World!

The essence of the Grand Vow is to put the cart before the horse: collect money before doing the work, first deceive the Heavenly Dao’s investment, then with the help of Merit to achieve Saint status, and as a Saint, gradually fulfill the blueprint they have depicted.

However, in Xuanqing’s view, the grand vows made by the two Saints of the Western Sect seemed somewhat grandiose and unrealistic, with some achievable and others as illusory as moon in the water and flower in the mirror.

"Wait!"

Xuanqing suddenly realized: "Illusory beyond measure, moon in the water, flower in the mirror, castles in the air, isn’t that just like a dream? No wonder that Jieyin Saint developed the method of Dreaming of Enlightenment! Isn’t this the desire to Transforming Void into Reality?"

He knew that according to the development of the grand trend of the Heavenly Dao, in the future, the Western Sect would transform into the Buddhist Sect, and after Houtu established Reincarnation, the Buddhist Sect even put forward the concept of cultivating for the next life.

The next life and again the next life, how manifold the next lives are? freewēbnoveℓ.com

As long as the Six Paths of Reincarnation exist, beings will cycle through life after life.

He had heard the two Saints of the Western make their Grand Vow but they only promised what they would do, never specifying when it would be achieved, allowing their vow the flexibility of time.

Like a person, promising another to make them wealthy, if not achieved within ten years, then extending the deadline to twenty years, to thirty years...

"Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west, do not bully the young when they’re poor!"

"Three hundred years in the east of the river, three hundred years in the west, do not bully the middle-aged when they’re poor!"

"Three thousand years in the east of the river, three thousand years in the west, do not bully the elderly when they’re poor!"

"Thirty thousand years in the east of the river, thirty thousand years in the west, do not bully one’s poverty in the next life!"

"If poor in the next life, wait for the following life, one life after another, the cause and effect never cease!"

"What a boundless nesting doll, with Reincarnation unending and a future that never ceases, the Grand Vow bears a sliver of possibility for realization. Indeed, those two Saints of the Western know how to play!"

To change the great trend of the Heavenly Dao, Xuanqing must also "paint pies" like the two Saints of the Western, except his pie must show short-term results.

For example, he speaks of increasing the upper limit of the Primordial Spirit Qi, turning "restriction" into "source," he must then take actions such as repairing the Primordial Earth Veins, clearing the miasmic evil qi, and managing the Poison Miasma Lands.

Moreover, he must let all beings see hope, witness the Primordial improving step by step, and understand that the severing of Innate Spiritual Energy is not irreparable.

For another example, when he mentions carving out a lifeline for fallen beings, he must establish the Ghost Immortal Path, allowing those remnant souls to see the possibility of cultivating.

Thinking of this, Xuanqing immediately began to implement his plan, instructing "Suiren" to collect the True Spirits of the fallen members of the Human Race, placing them in the "Incense Daluo Heaven" he had opened up, and telling the relatives of those humans that as long as they worship day and night, there is hope for resurrection for the fallen of the Human Race.

The "Ghost Immortal System" can’t be achieved overnight, but Xuanqing has understood the key: incense and karmic virtue, as well as a complete Cultivation Technique system.

Xuanqing is using this as a foundation to "paint pies" for those who have lost loved ones from the Human Race.

"In addition, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Poison Miasma Land where Pan King fell, even though it has dissipated a lot, is still not a place where ordinary beings can tread!"

"The Poison Miasma covering the skies, poisonous creatures all over, is the perfect place for the Plague Dao Avatar to display its Divine Skills!"

"This should count as Merit for Heaven and Earth as well!"

"If the Plague Dao Avatar can gain Merit by managing the Poison Miasma, then this can be used as a foundation, allowing more beings to participate in managing the Poison Miasma and repairing the earth veins!"

After understanding the "Painting Pie Technique," Xuanqing’s vision immediately broadened. The disciples of the Jie Sect, both internal and outer sects, numbering over tens of thousands, plus those who have heard the teachings from Tongtian Sect Master, as long as he takes the lead in doing things that benefit Heaven and Earth and finds a consistent way to gain merit, is there any fear that others won’t actively follow him?

Thinking of this, he immediately flew towards Golden Turtle Island; he couldn’t communicate directly with the Primordial Heavenly Dao, at most, he could ask the Heavenly Dao to witness when he made a vow.

But Tongtian could!

As long as Tongtian could persuade the Heavenly Dao and set down rules, like if one does something beneficial for the Primordial World, the Heavenly Dao will proactively bestow some Merit and good fortune... then it’s absolutely a mutually beneficial situation!

The Great Vows of the two Saints of the Western are about deceiving the Heavenly Dao into investing, it’s putting the cart before the horse.

However, Xuanqing’s "Painting Pie Technique" is about depicting a beautiful blueprint for the Primordial Heavenly Dao. He provides the plan, the Primordial Heavenly Dao provides the Merit, the Jie Sect provides the manpower, and once there’s an effect, they can expand the scale, letting the Heavenly Dao increase its investment, and simultaneously getting more people involved in the blueprint he outlined.

With visible benefits, the will of beings will naturally change, and the great trend of the Heavenly Dao can naturally change!

"Perfect!"

Xuanqing couldn’t help but admire his own ingenuity.
