Chapter 491: Ghost Dao Merit Method? The Method of Cultivating Faith?

Within the soul, Yin Gui Zhenren controls everything.

His soul and the Ghost King's body have merged together, but the merging progress is not good.

Compared to ordinary people, he always lacks a bit; this sense of abruptness is not so easy to dispel.

The mismatch between soul and body, even if he used some special means to forcibly merge, still exists.

This problem is hard to eliminate.

It's you, Chen Chuyang, release this Ghost King, otherwise, this Ghost King will make you... wish you were dead.

Chen Chuyang was amused; are these people all brainless? At this time, can't they see the situation clearly?

Under the eaves, one must lower their head, do you understand?

Shadow Grand Elder, you don't think you can escape, do you?

Chen Chuyang reached out, his right hand crackling with lightning, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder bombarded the soul.

Boom—

Shadow Grand Elder's soul trembled, then began to collapse and dissipate.

This frightened Shadow Grand Elder; the soul is his weakest point, this body is hard to destroy, but his soul is extremely weak, just merged, having endured the bombardment of the heavenly tribulation, the last merit light was exhausted, without the protection of merit light, his soul is like a defenseless lamb.

Lightning is the strongest bane of souls; even a little can cause the soul to fly apart and scatter.

Among lightning, the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder is the most terrifying; against souls, it is an absolute counter.

Shadow Grand Elder's soul, having undergone fusion, was inherently weak, weakened greatly, only one-tenth remains.

A few more bolts of lightning, and he might truly have his soul fly apart and scatter.

Wait a moment, kid, wait.

Shadow Grand Elder panicked.

Kid, whatever you want, this Ghost King can give you.

He compromised.

Not wanting to die, the only option is to lower one's head.

The Ghost King's body cannot protect him; this person before him is very strong.

He can be killed; under threat of life, Shadow Grand Elder can only compromise.

That's right. Chen Chuyang made a move, lightning flashing.

It could crush Shadow Grand Elder's soul at any moment.

Shadow Grand Elder choked up, dare not retort, nor dare to speak threatening words.

At this moment, their identities have reversed; Chen Chuyang holds the initiative, or rather, he originally was the one in control of everything.

I still like your arrogant, unruly self from just now.

Upon hearing this, Shadow Grand Elder felt ashamed and embarrassed, being humiliated to his face, yet he could not retort.

Nor dare he show any dissatisfaction or anger; he understands that provoking Chen Chuyang's anger would otherwise truly get himself killed.

Soul scattered, can never be revived.

If the body is gone, one can still try to condense a form; if the soul is gone, then it truly is gone.

Everything has merged into this body.

Shadow Grand Elder dares not gamble, nor provoke.

Speak, what is your secret?

Shadow Grand Elder feigned madness: 'What secret?'

Chen Chuyang directly slapped out, the lightning power entered his body through the palm, Yin Ghost Grand Elder's soul followed the lightning-condensed palm and was swept out, the entire soul flew out.

Bang.

Part of the soul's power dissipated, completely dissipated.

Shadow Grand Elder's soul became illusory, ready to collapse at any moment.

He stared in terror at Chen Chuyang; this person really made a move, another strike and he would truly dissipate.

I'll speak, I'll speak.

You merely want the method to obtain merit power; I'll tell you.

Shadow Grand Elder no longer dares to play dumb; this person will really kill him.

He knows Chen Chuyang doesn't care and isn't afraid of his death.

Those means are useless before him.

Chen Chuyang, who does not follow the routine, will not... be manipulated by him.

Merit power is hard to obtain; ordinary people cannot obtain it, and even if they did, they cannot condense it.

Merit, merit, obviously beneficial to this world, naturally some merit will be gained.

However, because this world is incomplete and not a great world, merit power is limited; wanting to obtain it is as hard as climbing to heaven.

To condense merit light, much merit is needed; as I say, this Ghost King plotted for over a thousand years and only obtained this strand of merit light; for this, how many people died, how much was sacrificed.

He, in order to obtain merit, plotted for a very long time.

He paid a great price to obtain this strand of merit light.

Once used, it's gone.

This is the success of his thousand-year plot, scheming for the Ghost King.

Merit obtained, still needs condensation; without the corresponding method, merit light cannot be condensed.

Generally, only Buddhist sects have the method to condense merit; they are more skilled at this.

In our world, there are no Buddhist cultivators.

Shadow Grand Elder glanced at Chen Chuyang, wanting to see his reaction.

Chen Chuyang had no reaction.

Shadow Grand Elder then said: "As the Ghost King, by a fortunate coincidence, I obtained a secret method, the secret method of condensing merit. After my own comprehension and fusion, I successfully comprehended the merit-condensation method unique to ghost cultivators."

Shadow Grand Elder pulled out a ball of light and handed it to Chen Chuyang.

"Inside this is the merit-condensation method you wanted."

Chen Chuyang took the ball of light, glared at Shadow Grand Elder, then began to absorb this ball of light.

"Ghost Dao Merit Method", the merit method of ghost cultivators.

A cultivation method, another kind of cultivation method, namely the merit cultivation method of ghost cultivators, a truly wondrous dharma.

This kind of dharma is not something Shadow Grand Elder could comprehend.

At a glance it was a complete dharma; Chen Chuyang looked it over once, then pondered for a moment.

This cultivation method has a major flaw; the merit-condensation method is better described as a faith-based cultivation method—acquiring merit, acquiring faith, using this as the basic cultivation.

It replaced the original true qi cultivation method, was slightly altered by Shadow Grand Elder, and became a mishmash.

However, Chen Chuyang could see through the essence of this cultivation method and found its core.

Condensing the essence, he found the dharma at its core.

The merit-faith condensation method—this is how one cultivates.

Once one cultivates according to this method, the early stage goes smoothly and one can rapidly increase one's cultivation.

Belonging to an alternative cultivation method, the more faith one has, the faster the cultivation speed and the greater the strength.

Looking at it, there seems no problem, nor any hidden scheme.

But.

In this, there is a major problem.

That is the problem of faith power; Chen Chuyang knows that faith power is problematic, faith power is toxic—it can help you grow, but it can also restrict and bind you, even imprison you.

In the end, you will become a puppet of faith power.

And the core of this cultivation method is precisely to do that.

Turning you into a machine for acquiring faith and merit, in the end it benefits the person behind this cultivation method.
