Chapter 747

"The limit of the first stage of the Eternal Heart?" Li Yuan was puzzled by this.

"Correct."

"The Star God cultivation system is known as the strongest cultivation system, so the will of God Kings can basically reach the 'Eternal Heart' level," Jin Yuan explained: "But like other cultivation systems, or some Star Beast Emperors, after stepping into the eighth rank, their will may not necessarily transform."

Li Yuan couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, in the Immortal Heaven, many low-rank Demigods can survive for hundreds of millions of years precisely because their will is strong enough.

But there are also many eighth-rank practitioners who have not opened a Dao, and even if their true bodies are entrusted to the inner universe space-time of an Emperor, it is still difficult to survive in Eternal Relics for over a hundred million years.

The main reason is that their will is not strong enough.

Only when the will reaches the Eternal Heart level can one maintain their original heart and clear consciousness under the erosion of endless long years.

"The Eternal Heart also has levels," Jin Yuan said: "Like God Kings, Emperors, and even Supremes, their wills all belong to the category of the Eternal Heart, but can they be the same? The terror of a Supreme's will is enough to annihilate countless low-rank Demigods with a single glance."

Li Yuan suddenly understood; it was indeed so.

Like himself, in terms of will alone, he is much stronger than when he first reached the top of Mount Zishan, but he still belongs to the category of the 'Eternal Heart'.

"Please, Senior, give me some guidance," Li Yuan said respectfully.

"The Eternal Heart can be divided into three major levels," Jin Yuan smiled, seemingly very pleased with Li Yuan's attitude: "They are Heart-Mind as One, Heart-Mind Immortal, and Heart-Mind Transforming into Myriad Universes."

Three major levels? Li Yuan silently noted them down.

"Like countless low-rank Demigods, and even most ordinary Emperors, they all belong to the first stage, 'Heart-Mind as One'," Jin Yuan said: "This stage is about placing extreme importance on one's own obsession, where heart and action are one, and the many temptations and illusion methods from the outside world are difficult to shake their heart and spirit."

"It is precisely because of such a strong will and persistence in one's original heart that one can resist the erosion of time," Jin Yuan said solemnly.

Li Yuan was thoughtful.

According to Jin Yuan's meaning, his own will now counts as having reached the limit level of 'Heart-Mind as One'? In other words, his will is already not inferior to most ordinary Emperors?

Li Yuan was not surprised by this.

Opening up the Heart Tool Dao and the deduction of the soul origin have caused his cognition of the Void Realm and the material world to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Naturally, this also caused his will to transform.

"Then what about Heart-Mind Immortal?" Li Yuan asked.

"This level generally requires the peak of the Emperor realm to have hope of reaching," Jin Yuan said: "Of course, there are also many ordinary Emperors whose will cultivation is very strong and have reached this level... and there are also Sovereigns who have never been able to comprehend it and remain at the Heart-Mind as One level."

Li Yuan listened.

In terms of the strength of the soul origin, Sovereigns are definitely stronger, but will is more mysterious... if strength is weak, will can still very possibly be strong.

"A practitioner's Heart-Mind as One, where the will is like a god, relies on that strong obsession within the heart," Jin Yuan said: "But can this obsession really support one until eternity? True eternity is not being trapped by obsession."

"Abandon obsession?" Li Yuan frowned.

Whether it is the cultivation of powerhouses or the hard work of mortals, they all have desires in their hearts, they all have things they seek... If one has no desires and no demands, how can one achieve great things?

Even some so-called great virtuous people are often burdened by fame.

Fame is also a desire.

And like Li Yuan, he longs to reach the peak of cultivation, longs to protect the Qixing civilization and the Chaos Divine Court, and also longs for the relatives and friends whose souls are entrusted in his inner universe to be able to survive forever...

Precisely because he has many desires, he can advance triumphantly.

"No!"

Jin Yuan shook his head and said: "According to the Master, the so-called Heart-Mind Immortal is not about abandoning obsession, but about getting rid of obsession, understanding obsession itself, and not being trapped by obsession."

"Nothing is let go, yet everything can be let go."

"Only in this way can one have an immortal will and eternal existence amidst the passage of endless time," Jin Yuan said solemnly.
