Chapter 203: Reincarnated to Seek the Righteous Fruit

"The so-called ascent to seek the Golden Essence: each school has its own explanation, but to summarize in one sentence: refine the Golden Nature to ascend to the Blessed Land, and transform the Grotto-Heaven to attain the Righteous Fruit."

True Person Chongguang smiled and spoke confidently:

"The so-called 【Blessed Land】 is what a Great True Person with a perfect Foundation Establishment forms by using their own life essence as a foundation, supplementing it with innate divine powers, and expanding their Dao foundation."

"When the 【Blessed Land】 ascends, it becomes a 【Grotto-Heaven】."

"Only a 【Grotto-Heaven】 can align with the Heavenly Fruit Position. As for how to transform a 【Blessed Land】 into a 【Grotto-Heaven】, the key lies in the Golden Nature."

"The Golden Nature is the essence of the soul and spirit."

"A Great True Person with a perfect Foundation Establishment refines an indestructible Golden Nature from their own soul and spirit, using it to push up the 【Blessed Land】 and transform it into a 【Grotto-Heaven】."

Speaking of this, True Person Chongguang glanced at Lu Yang again and smiled: "And if the quest for the Golden Nature fails, the 【Blessed Land】 cannot withstand the Dao-ification brought by the Fruit Position, will merge with the Golden Nature, and give birth to a Dao Sin. The Dao Sin inherits all the knowledge of the original body and its strength is even one level higher than a perfect Foundation Establishment."

"However, a Dao Sin is ultimately not a cultivator."

"Its very existence is an unnatural phenomenon, and it delights in devouring cultivators, so it is generally eliminated by the combined efforts of various True Lords."

"For instance, if I fail this time, True Lord Feixue will eliminate the Dao Sin I become."

True Person Chongguang even used himself as an example, but before he finished speaking, Lu Yang stood up with a serious expression and said with ringing words:

"Junior Uncle, do not speak nonsense!"

"For this quest for the Golden Nature, Junior Uncle is fully prepared. With True Lords above to protect, and us below willing to give our lives, there are ten arguments for victory. Junior Uncle, do not waver in your Dao Heart!"

"Hahaha, that is true. I spoke out of turn."

True Person Chongguang narrowed his eyes. Although he knew Lu Yang was just flattering him, the words made sense, so he still found them pleasing to hear.

Seeing this, True Person Yinshan, who had been silent beside them, could only sigh in his heart: A hundred years. Back then, I was still a senior figure in front of Lu Yang, but now it is he who is closer to Senior Brother Chongguang, while I am left sitting in the lowest seat. Thinking about it now, it was just that my mouth was too clumsy!

Why didn't I think of these words just now?

Despite saying that, True Person Yinshan held no negative emotions; his mindset adjusted quickly. He said calmly: "Regarding the many internal factors, Senior Brother is fully prepared."

"For any internal tribulation, Senior Brother is confident he can break through."

"The only thing to worry about is the external tribulation."

True Person Yinshan's words made Lu Yang's expression serious as well: "External tribulation... Senior Brother means that on the day Junior Uncle ascends to seek the Golden Essence, outsiders will attack?"

"Not 'will', but 'must'."

True Person Chongguang smiled lightly: "After all, I cannot break through within the Holy Sect. In fact, to ascend, I must go to another region."

Lu Yang frowned: "Which region?"

"That region is located to the southwest of Jiangbei."

"It is named 【Qing Kingdom】."

True Person Chongguang explained: "This place is a wonder from a certain battle for the Dao, where our Holy Sect lost to the Dao Court, and the Son of Heaven of the Dao Court struck it into Jiangbei."

"The cultivation there is completely different from ours in Jiangbei. It mimics the Dao Court, located on the border between Jiangxi and Jiangdong, and is also the bridgehead for the Dao Court entering Jiangbei."

"I intend to use it as the sustenance for my ascension."

As the words fell, the aura around True Person Chongguang suddenly changed. It was like a spark; initially insignificant, but in an instant, it grew into a prairie fire.

"Do you know the characteristics of 【Overturning the Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】?"

Inside the great hall, True Person Chongguang's voice became ethereal.

Lu Yang's expression was solemn. He had once used the 【Li Wei】 divine power of the 【Abyss Sword】 to witness the strange phenomenon manifested by 【Overturning the Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】 with his own eyes.

"Overturning the Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo is actually the Light of the Golden Cup, illuminating places the sun and moon do not reach, and clarifying times the heaven and earth have not yet clarified."

"What Duanmu Yuan Tu said is correct."

True Person Chongguang nodded upon hearing this: "To ascend, one's words and deeds must align with the imagery of the Fruit Position itself; only then can it attract resonance from the Fruit Position."

"【Overturning the Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】 illuminates what the sun and moon do not, and clarifies what heaven and earth have not yet clarified. I take the meaning of the character 'Reverse' from it, so I need to prove it by reversing the rules of other Fruit Positions. And 【Qing Kingdom】, as a wonder struck into our Jiangbei by the Son of Heaven of the Dao Court, naturally contains the rules of the Dao Court's Fruit Positions."

"This is my opportunity to attain the Dao."

Speaking of this, True Person Chongguang finally presented his plan: "I intend to be reborn, enter 【Qing Kingdom】, and reverse the Dao Court's order from within to without..."

As he spoke, colorful light appeared behind True Person Chongguang, as if lighting a lamp. The faint flame gradually emitted brilliant light.

"I cultivate the 【Six Directions Bright Essence Dao Qi】 with the 【Heart Fire Illuminating Spirit Pill Scripture】, build the 【Chonghua Sun Pavilion Dao Foundation】, refine the innate divine power 【Grotto-Bright Flying Scenery Map】, combine and refine Cheng Tian Gang and Earthly Fiends to form an innate divine power, and use 【Immortal Paulownia】, 【Shadow Dragon Water】, 【Fear of Axe Strikes】, and 【Fierce Flame Furnace】 to complete my life essence."

"Thus forming the 【Grotto-Sun Blessed Land】!"

As the words fell, the colorful light behind True Person Chongguang completely solidified. Faintly visible were pavilions and towers, the rising sun and flying scenery, illuminating the great hall brightly!

"Once I reverse 【Qing Kingdom】, I will surely gain the favor of the Fruit Position and ascend to seek the Golden Essence!"

Under the brilliant light, Lu Yang's expression was grave.

He understood True Person Chongguang's meaning: the so-called quest for the Golden Essence is actually a massive ritual to seek the gaze of the Fruit Position descending.

Only with the guidance of the Fruit Position can the direction of the 【Blessed Land】's ascent be ensured to be accurate.

Otherwise, if you fly to the wrong place, to the wrong Fruit Position's domain, at best the Blessed Land will fall, and at worst it will shatter directly, and the quest for the Golden Essence will fail.

True Person Chongguang is now in this state: his cultivation is perfect, his Golden Nature is complete, and he can fully begin the breakthrough. He is just missing the final step of gaining the favor of 【Overturning the Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】 to guide him to the location of the Fruit Position. Once successful, ascending the 【Blessed Land】 to transform into a 【Grotto-Heaven】 is already a certainty.

"I am willing to serve Junior Uncle to the death!"

Without a second word, Lu Yang immediately declared his attitude. True Person Yinshan followed closely behind. Seeing this, True Person Chongguang slowly retracted his aura.

"I naturally trust you, otherwise I would not have entrusted this matter to you."

"However, reversing the rules of a Fruit Position is no small matter."

"To succeed, relying solely on external force is useless. Internal and external forces must coordinate and exert power together; only amidst internal worries and external troubles can the rules of the Fruit Position be crushed."

"My rebirth in 【Qing Kingdom】 is to act from within."

"Therefore, I also need you to gather all cultivators in Jiangbei, march south to attack 【Qing Kingdom】, apply force from the outside, and thus create the opportunity for me to reverse it."

As the words fell, Lu Yang immediately exhaled a deep breath of turbid air.

No wonder, when he picked up corpses overseas this time, after one wave of massive gains, neither True Lord Qingcheng Feixue nor True Person Chongguang had any intention of holding it against him.

It turns out they wanted him to fight for his life!

March south to attack the 【Qing Kingdom】?

No need to even think about it; as the Son of Heaven of the Dao Court striking into Jiangbei, he must clash with the Dao Court, and with a southern advance, the Sword Pavilion will likely come as well!

Under these circumstances, Lu Yang naturally wants to be as strong as possible.

So Master Chongguang would be delighted if he gained even more benefits; how could he possibly come to snatch benefits from him? After all, nothing is more important than his ascension to seek the Golden Core.

In other words, he has already taken so many benefits.

How could he not act?

With this thought, Lu Yang immediately clasped his hands in a bow and said loudly: "I am willing to follow Junior Uncle's will. Whenever we march south, Junior Uncle gives the order, and this disciple will not decline!"

Seeing this, True Person Chongguang let out a loud laugh: "Duanmu Yuan Tu, you may rise."

"I have received the decree from True Lord Feixue. Before marching south, Duanmu Yuan Tu may go to the Manifestation Pavilion at Sacred Fire Cliff to obtain one or two Dao arts, to serve as protection."

Having finished speaking, True Person Chongguang exchanged a glance with Lu Yang, and the two smiled at each other.

Clearly, True Person Chongguang also knew this perfectly well.

Lu Yang declared his stance first; this is a matter of loyalty.

However, loyalty cannot be eaten. We are all True Persons of the Holy Sect; drawing big cakes is something no one takes seriously, so True Person Chongguang does not talk empty talk.

The moment Lu Yang agreed to act, the very next moment he offered benefits.

This is the style of the Holy Sect!
