Chapter 916 - 272: [Who Is Shen 17]
Or perhaps, become an ox or a horse.
Exposed to wind and rain, working tirelessly, and when old, still having to face slaughter, bones split and flesh cut, offering one’s blood and flesh to nourish the master...
Different "lifetimes" — after experiencing each one, naturally yield different insights!!
And carrying these insights, the sent-out Primordial Spirit can return to the original self after the end of a lifetime!
Bringing this experience and insight back to the original self.
Then... the Mental Realm naturally grows, becoming stronger!
Using this method to cultivate the Mental Realm can almost infinitely enhance the Mental Realm.
And the Mental Realm is the quality of the Primordial Spirit.
The stronger the Mental Realm, the greater the potential of the Primordial Spirit!
That is to say, while others cultivate their Primordial Spirit, the full score is one hundred.
Having mastered the "God-Hosting Chapter," theoretically, the full score is... limitless!
This kind of Cultivation Technique, even in the Domain Realm, is absolutely the most top-tier Cultivation Technique!!
It could be something that even the peak masters would consider as their most treasured asset!
Only after Chen Yan understood the "God-Hosting Chapter" did he suddenly realize that when Shen Shiqi made him swear not to spread it, it was actually... to protect himself.
If this Cultivation Technique was known to be in his possession, cultivators with intentions might risk their lives to seize it!
Given his current cultivation, if it were known that he possessed such a terrifying Cultivation Technique, it would be like a three-year-old child flaunting a fortune on the streets!
Realizing this, Chen Yan broke into a cold sweat, and at the same time, resolved in his heart.
He wouldn’t tell anyone about this Cultivation Technique! Not a word!!
And also...
God-Hosting Chapter!
"So... the origin of Shen Shiqi... should be an avatar of some Great Power! A body used to experience a lifetime and comprehend the Mental Realm!!"
Wait a minute!
What the...!!
Shen Shiqi’s real name... Jiang Baisui?
Baisui?!
Chen Yan squinted, a complex expression flickering in his eyes.
Indulgence and passion?!
Hundred-Year-old Venerable?!
·
Wiping away the cold sweat, Chen Yan, with his speculations in mind, waited for his pounding heart to calm down.
Indeed!
No wonder they spoke of indulgence and passion!
Back then, when Lin Qingquan mentioned that the Hundred-Year-old Venerable had sent someone to this world to bring some cultivators back...
The Taoist Skill of that Hundred-Year-old Venerable is indulgence and passion.
Isn’t it just indulgence and passion!
The Cultivation is the "God-Hosting Chapter," able to experience countless different lives.
Isn’t it all about fully experiencing life!!
To experience every kind of life, every moment to its fullest! Only then can one obtain the richest Mental Realm insights.
·
After calming down, Chen Yan did not rush to hastily cultivate the "God-Hosting Chapter."
Because, although this Cultivation Technique is powerful and formidable, but...
It is not without its drawbacks, and this drawback is very lethal.
Simply put, when cultivating this method, the original self’s inner self must be extremely strong!
If the original self’s inner self is too weak...
Let’s say, if Chen Yan were to cultivate it now, sending out a Primordial Spirit, hosting a spirit outside, living a lifetime as another person, for example, named Zhang the Third.
Then hosting another named Li the Fourth.
Years later, when Zhang the Third and Li the Fourth complete their Primordial Spirit tasks and return to the main body.
Each carrying a lifetime’s worth of memories.
Parents, family, kinship, love, birth, aging, illness, death, a lifetime of joys and sorrows, partings and reunions, life and death...
Returning to the main body, memories merging...
Then...
At that moment, if the original self’s inner self is not strong enough.
It becomes a personality disorder!
Am I Chen Yan, or Zhang the Third? Or Li the Fourth?
It wouldn’t be a gain, but self-destruction!
By then, with a personality disorder, one wouldn’t even know who they are.
Not only would it not increase the cultivation of the Mental Realm, but it would instead become a massive Heart Demon!
·
"If I were to cultivate this... given the current strength of my own Primordial Spirit, the safest approach wouldn’t be to host as a human.
A person’s life, with its memories and insights, is too vast — my original self can’t handle it, and it would lead to disorder.
The best approach is... to start small, hosting as an entity with a short lifespan."
With this in mind, Chen Yan decided to temporarily set aside the "God-Hosting Chapter."
Afterward, he got up and checked every corner of the room, closing the doors and windows.
With his cultivation level, any hidden surveillance cameras in a hotel room couldn’t escape his Divine Sense’s detection.
After confirming the room’s safety, Chen Yan took out the Li Huo Candle.
Lighting the candle, amidst the flickering flame, a phantom emerged from the fire.
The old Taoist’s figure was still semi-transparent, but it appeared more solid than before.
Unlike that feeling of being on the verge of dissipating at any moment.
"This humble Taoist greets Fellow Daoist!" The old Taoist courteously bowed to Chen Yan.
Chen Yan nodded, returned the courtesy, and then said, "In the past few days, has Fellow Daoist rested well inside my Li Huo Candle?"
The old Taoist smiled slightly: "With the blessings of Fellow Daoist, this humble Taoist has recovered some Soul Power, now temporarily without the risk of dissipating, and can survive for an hour even outside the Li Huo Candle."
Chen Yan nodded, immediately extinguishing the candle with a slap: "In that case, let’s save some of my candle."
The old Taoist paused, then chuckled: "Indeed, this rarity is hard to come by, best to save some where possible."
Chen Yan laughed and said, "After I took Fellow Daoist in, considering your weakened state, I haven’t summoned you these past few days. Now that Fellow Daoist’s soul is stable, please come out for a chat."
The old Taoist maintained a proper attitude, slowly saying: "Indeed! Now being by Fellow Daoist’s side, considering it as a Guest Elder role under your service, we should indeed have a talk and open up to each other."
