Chapter 51: Jiang Yan Creates the Dao Scripture, the Return to Ruins Calamity Sea (Seeking monthly tickets, follow-up reading)

"At that time, the Heavenly Venerable who relieves suffering, filling the ten directions of the world, constantly uses his mighty divine power to save all sentient beings..."

Jiang Yan softly chanted the precious proclamation.

That’s right, this cultivation method is suspected to be related to the dharma lineage of the Heavenly Venerable of Great Oneness who Relieves Suffering.

He once manifested as the Heavenly Venerables of the ten directions, one of whom was the Lord of the Eastern Extreme Longevity World—the Heavenly Venerable of the Eastern Jade Treasure Emperor, which belongs to one of the branches.

If one traces the origins of Great Oneness, his status is that of a creator god; if one could truly find his inheritance, it would absolutely be among the very best.

The reason such a good thing could fall to Jiang Yan is that it doesn't even count as a basic introductory chapter; it only records one special, unranked spell.

[Lotus-Planting Art of Relieving Suffering for Sentient Beings of the Ten Directions]

By healing sentient beings of the ten directions, one condenses mysterious "merit" to give birth to a special Longevity Green Lotus, which can heal one's own injuries.

The lotus is green, with one grade per petal, totaling twelve grades.

The higher the grade, the stronger the effect.

Once promoted to the twelfth grade, it can transform into a Longevity Lotus Throne, placing one in an invincible position.

But before that, it has no offensive power, only healing capabilities, and it requires the practitioner to personally go and relieve suffering...

If the suffering relieved is too small, the effect of the condensed green lotus is not even as good as some ordinary healing pills.

But it does indeed belong to a cultivation method, because fusing a Longevity Green Lotus of the fourth grade or higher can directly grant a mid-grade Dao Foundation.

Most crucially, as merit is accumulated, the quality of the Dao Foundation can also be improved.

The fifth grade is equal to high-grade, and the sixth grade is equal to super-grade.

As for the seventh grade...

How could a weak practitioner save sentient beings from suffering at that level?

Therefore, although the immortal and divine dharma lineages are enticing,

as soon as one thinks of the associated disease domains and tasks, one instantly calms down.

Risk and reward are directly proportional.

Jiang Yan chose three cultivation methods related to Taoism precisely to use the Dao to suppress Buddhism.

Using the Purple Star Son of Heaven to practice the art of balance.

"Let's begin."

Jiang Yan whispered, and the chaotic airflow submerged the world before him, transforming into a dark World Tree.

It swayed slightly, shaking the endless Chaos Sea.

Hundreds of millions of dark tentacles spread out; the Dao rhymes of the three secret manuals seemed to sense danger and wanted to flee, but they were easily suppressed and gestated into three fruits.

Click, click, click!

The next second, three skill offspring were born, conveying feelings of closeness.

Jiang Yan said softly: "Devour each other!"

That’s right, his goal is to create a new method.

If it were anyone else, even at the Old Record level, it would likely be difficult enough to practice one top-tier cultivation method, let alone fully comprehend them all and compile them for re-cultivation.

What this represents are three completely different paths; even if it is just the basic chapter, what they contain is a top expert's understanding of the "Dao."

Perhaps only great supernatural powers, or even immortals and gods, could compile and re-record them.

But Jiang Yan has the Demon God Embryo; no matter what the technique is, as long as it contains extraordinary traits, it can be gestated into offspring to devour each other and upgrade.

It completely defies logic,

modifying from the root level without worrying about leaving behind flaws.

Most importantly...

By fusing many paths, his Dao Foundation will also be unique, and he won't have to worry about his future path being occupied by others.

As for the Lamp-Lighting Method... it is not yet time to fuse it.

Jiang Yan has already figured out the preliminary fusion rules: if the level gap between offspring is too wide, it will become a one-sided annexation, strengthening the original path.

It is easy to walk one path to the end.

Rustle!

The dark tentacles wrapped around the three offspring without directly melting them.

Instead, it started a "gu" cultivation mode to nurture a new "Gu King."

The three light orbs also began to erode each other; although they lacked complete consciousness, they all instinctively longed to be children accompanying their creator.

Among them, the offspring gestated by the [Yellow Court Hidden Form-Refining Method] launched an attack first, and the target was actually...

[Eastern Extreme Longevity Lotus-Planting Art].

It even knew how to pick the softest persimmon to squeeze.

After all, it was the most incomplete, with only one spell.

It was just that it still fell into a stalemate.

Meanwhile, the [Purple Star Son of Heaven Qi-Absorption Method] chose to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, waiting until the [Yellow Court Hidden Form] had consumed the [Suffering-Relieving Lotus-Planting Art] and suffered some depletion before launching an offensive to swallow it.

It was well-versed in the art of emperors.

Just when Jiang Yan thought everything was over, flowers of green lotus grew within the light orb of the [Purple Star Son of Heaven Qi-Absorption Method], proliferating rapidly like cancer cells and swallowing it whole.

Finally, the lotuses became one, transforming into a nine-grade green lotus, floating quietly on the Chaos Sea.

Silently, it became the biggest winner.

"As expected of an immortal and divine inheritance; it truly fulfills the saying—mystery will fail in the face of mystery at a higher level."

After Jiang Yan re-gestated it through the Demon God Embryo, relevant information appeared before his eyes.

[Jiang Yan's Scripture of the Return to Ruins Calamity Sea Lotus-Planting (Introductory Chapter)]

[Grade: Pseudo-Dao Scripture]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Description: The master of the Demon God Embryo spoke, wishing to open up a brand-new Dao Scripture; three top-tier cultivation methods fused into one, transforming into a pseudo-immortal/divine level inheritance, containing only the introductory extraordinary chapter.

Retains all abilities of the three Dao Scriptures.

Can condense a super-grade "Return to Ruins Calamity Sea Dao Foundation."

The Return to Ruins is the place where all things end.

After birth, the true Qi in the body is like a never-drying sea of the Return to Ruins, endless and inexhaustible; it can accommodate all paths of the Ten Heavenly Stems and gestate them into Dharma Lotuses, strengthening the power of spells.

Collecting all top-tier Dharma seeds of the Ten Heavenly Stems can give birth to the Return to Ruins Sea phenomenon, making one immune to all laws of the same rank.

Can collect the calamities, luck, and Qi of the celestial stars from all sentient beings and realms; can strengthen oneself, or gestate a special Return to Ruins Calamity Sea Dharma Lotus within the Dao Foundation.

Can transform into a Dharma seed, giving birth to Calamity Sea spells.

Can be integrated into a certain part of one's own body, transforming into an extraordinary organ of end-times power, possessing special abilities; gathering all five viscera and six bowels will cause strange changes.

Can be gifted to those with prosperous luck, integrated into their souls to grow together, and provide feedback to the Calamity Lord; after they fall, their lifetime cultivation, karma, and Dharma seeds will all be devoured by the Dharma Lotus, returning to the Return to Ruins to nourish oneself and one's dependents.]

[The heavens and myriad worlds are merely your lotus pond.]

"What a terrifying Dao Scripture!"

After reading it, Jiang Yan remained silent for a long time before giving his evaluation.

It not only inherited all the effects of the three top-tier cultivation methods but also gave birth to a bug-like Dao Foundation such as the Return to Ruins Calamity Sea.

From now on, he truly doesn't need to worry about being targeted, because...

Every living creature must pray not to be targeted by Jiang Yan.

The last effect of the Calamity Lotus allows him to become the creditor of the heavens and myriad worlds.

Once one accepts the gift of the Calamity Lotus, unless one promotes all the way to an immortal or god and becomes immortal, one will eventually become Jiang Yan's food.

No, even immortals and gods are not necessarily immune to falling.

They are also targets that can be hunted!

"Old Ba said that large-scale disease domains are comparable to small worlds; one can completely choose a Son of Destiny within them and stir up turmoil from behind the scenes.

Not only can one absorb calamity Qi, but one can also harvest at the end; combined with the difference in time flow, cultivation progress can advance by leaps and bounds.

The reason it is a pseudo-Dao Scripture is because it only has an introductory chapter; if it could be perfected, it would absolutely be no less than any immortal or divine dharma lineage."

Most crucially, the offspring gestated by the Demon God Embryo can also be planted with the Calamity Lotus.

It can accelerate the growth of offspring and derive special abilities.

After they die, they will nourish oneself in return.

The appearance of the [Return to Ruins Calamity Sea Dao Scripture] makes up for Jiang Yan's last shortcoming.

Even if his offspring are all killed, it will only strengthen his power.

"It is time to promote the Dao Foundation!"
