Chapter 1453

Zhu Youjian: "Are you that eager?"

Lian Nishang: "Yes, shouldn't Zhu Tie Dan still be far from becoming a Sage?"

Zhu Youjian: "No, Lady Lian, you overestimate him—he hasn't even reached the Taiyi Realm, it's shameful. Even a pig that ate so many Peaches of Immortality should've become Taiyi by now."

Zhu Wushi: "I *****"

Zhang Taixuan: "Alchemy—you all know it, right? The final stage, of course, is fusing the Three Primordials as the medicinal catalyst, then beginning to fuse the Three Corpses to become a Sage."

Yunxiao: "Fusing the Three Primordials? So you must completely refine yourself into a state of utter ignorance and unconsciousness?!!"

Zhang Taixuan: "Exactly!"

Su Xiao: "Was this method even invented by a human?"

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "Too difficult."

Ouyang Mingri: "Indeed. As the Dao Lord has always said, the path of cultivation seeks truth, seeks the true self. I can naturally exist in a chaotic, ignorant state. But actually dissolving the self entirely—completely erasing the ego—is an extremely difficult thing."

Ouyang Mingri: "Ordinary beings, when faced with such a crisis, resist violently. Immortals even more so. At the peak of the Pretender Sage realm, if there's even a sliver of unwillingness, a trace of resistance, this process becomes perilous. Not to mention becoming a Sage—just preserving one's cultivation is exceedingly rare."

Yunxiao: "A Pretender Sage at peak level resisting unconsciously will indeed render all prior cultivation useless."

Su Xiao: "Isn't this a dead end? How did Hong Jun succeed?! This isn't logical—did Hong Jun really have some extraordinary ability to fully resolve the Three Corpses and become a Sage, then merge with the Dao?"

Yang Jian: "In terms of origin, Miss Yunxiao may be inferior to Hong Jun, but it's not like heaven versus earth, is it? Miss Yunxiao, do you truly have no confidence at all?"

Yunxiao: "None. In fact, the higher the realm, the stronger the self-awareness; when facing a crisis that erases the self, the subconscious resistance grows stronger."

Su Xiao: "That doesn't make sense. As far as I know, many cultivators enter states of absent-mindedness, without consciousness?"

Yunxiao: "You're talking about something entirely different. During cultivation, one exists in a state of half-awareness, but the subconscious knows there's no danger, so it doesn't resist. But after fusing the Three Primordials, when the self is utterly dissolved, it's the complete opposite—no one can deceive their own subconscious."

Yunxiao: "Brother Taixuan, how did Hong Jun deceive his own consciousness?"

Zhang Taixuan: "He had something you don't."

Su Xiao: "He's male? 【playful】"

Xiao Mai: "Su Xiao, you're insane! Are you trying to laugh me to death so you can inherit my game?"

Jia Bai Li: "Su Xiao really is getting weirder! What does gender have to do with this!? There are plenty of males in the Honghuang realm—why haven't any of them fully resolved the Three Corpses and become Sages?"

Yunxiao: "Miss Su is amusing! Brother Taixuan must mean the Creation Jade Disc, right?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Exactly."

Su Xiao: "The Creation Jade Disc? Wow, I've found a business opportunity—I can also condense a Creation Jade Disc in my world. Does that mean I can become a Sage!!!"

Xiao Mai: "??? Are you serious? Does our world have this kind of advantage too?"

Yunxiao: "Condense the Creation Jade Disc?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Miss Yunxiao, don't even think about it—your world already has a Creation Jade Disc, held by Hong Jun. You can't condense one."

Zhang Taixuan: "And you, Su Xiao, don't get too excited yet. Only a Creation Jade Disc from a Great World can guarantee a Pretender Sage at peak level returns safely. The Creation Jade Disc in your world lacks that function."

Yunxiao: "I see."

Su Xiao: "No wonder no one has become a Sage by resolving the Three Corpses since Hong Jun—there's no Creation Jade Disc, so there's no way to ensure safety. The Sages probably all know this, but never told their disciples."

· ··Requesting flowers··· ··

Ye Hei: "What good would telling them do? It would only cause some elite disciples attempting to become Sages to perish, and leave others in despair—with no benefit at all. Better not to know; ignorance is sometimes happiness. Unless all the Sages could borrow the Creation Jade Disc from Hong Jun."

Yunxiao: "Indeed. Even if our Master told us, he couldn't change anything—it would only cause some to perish in their attempts."

Han Paopao: "Borrow the Creation Jade Disc? How dare you even imagine it. That thing is Hong Jun's key to merging with the Dao—even his own son wouldn't get it."

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "So this path is a dead end in the Fengshen world. What about in my world—is there any possibility?"

........ 0

Zhang Taixuan: "Yes—you can condense a Creation Jade Disc. Of course, the prerequisite is that you subdue all other Pretender Sages."

Su Xiao: "But don't you have Brother Taixuan? We can crush the Jade Emperor, the Bodhi, everyone!"

Zhang Taixuan: "What? Are you asking me to condense a Sage position for Wukong?"

Qi Tian Da Sheng: "No need. I'll think of another way—I'm already a Pretender Sage; relying on my Master for everything would be ridiculous."

Hu Yifei: "If that's the case, then what is the Primordial Purple Qi?"

Zhang Taixuan: "It's authority. The Sage position is less a state of Hunyuan Da Luo and more the supreme authority over a Great World's heaven and earth."

Hu Yifei: "Is that so? Then why is becoming a Sage still so difficult for the other Sages? Why can't Hong Jun just give them the Primordial Purple Qi and let them become Sages?"

Zhang Taixuan: "How could that be! Do you think Nüwa's creation of humanity, or Jie Jiao's founding of their sect—what else did they have besides fortune?"

Hu Yifei: "I don't know."

Zhang Taixuan: "They all swore oaths when becoming Sages—like pledging loyalty to your boss upon hiring. Jie Jiao swore to seize a thread of life from heaven and earth—that's Tongtian Jiaozhu's authority and duty; he must act according to that vow in the Fengshen world. Chan Jiao swore to expound the Dao and follow heaven's will—his duties must also follow his vow… The Primordial Purple Qi doesn't directly grant authority because it makes the Sages understand one truth—realizing your duty, serving me, is what makes you a Sage. Otherwise, heh heh, you're nothing!"

Yunxiao: "The Primordial Purple Qi has this kind of mystery?"
