NOVPUB"Indeed, I’ve examined this Cultivation Method, and it indeed shares a similar ingenuity with the Totem Law of ancient tribes, capable of controlling the power of heaven and earth through the thoughts of all beings, achieving the position of a Deity. Although this Dharma seems simple, it also has significant side effects. The thoughts of all beings are so vast that they can easily destroy one’s Dao-heart and even bewilder the mind. And if a cultivator relies solely on their own painstaking Cultivation, it’s an indefinitely long journey. I’m afraid they may die of old age before achieving any success..."
As he spoke, Yao Wudi suddenly paused and looked at Wang Ba with a somewhat delayed realization, saying:
"Wait a minute, you don’t mean to cultivate this method, do you?"
Wang Ba hesitated for a moment, but ultimately refrained from concealing the truth and candidly said:
"I obtained this Cultivation Method right here in the past... Out of the need to protect myself, I had no choice but to cultivate it, and now I have been at the Second layer for many years."
Upon hearing this, Yao Wudi was taken aback, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings before he immediately recalled the experiences Wang Ba had once shared with him.
"What a coincidence..."
He then immediately furrowed his brows and said:
"Open your Spiritual Government, let me take a look."
Without a moment’s hesitation, Wang Ba immediately withdrew the defenses around his Spiritual Government.
Seeing this, Yao Wudi gave a slight nod of approval.
Immediately afterward, his mind stirred.
His figure slightly wavered, and a shadowy figure stepped out of his body, and then immediately stepped into Wang Ba’s Spiritual Government.
After a short while.
The shadowy figure of Yao Wudi flew out of Wang Ba’s Spiritual Government and returned to Yao Wudi’s body.
"Master, how is it?"
Wang Ba eagerly asked.
Yao Wudi shook his head slightly, and in Wang Ba’s somewhat anxious gaze, he said:
"I can’t enter the temple in your Spiritual Government."
Wang Ba was somewhat surprised:
"Why is that? Aren’t you at the Immortal Ascension stage, and you can’t enter either?"
"That’s one way to put it."
Yao Wudi waved his hand and frowned, "The outside of that temple of yours is guarded by the power of the Curse Dao. If I force my way into the temple, that Curse Dao power will inevitably be destroyed, which is one thing, but the key point is that the temple is like a whole entity. Unless it’s forcibly dismantled... but once dismantled, it would likely harm your soul."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba’s expression immediately grew somewhat solemn.
The power of the Curse Dao he was talking about must refer to the ’Lifeline Defile Curse.’
"But you don’t need to worry too much."
Yao Wudi saw the concern in Wang Ba’s heart and comforted him:
"This ’Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream,’ when it comes down to its essence, is still within the realm of the soul... When we from the Dharma Lineage advance from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul stage, we can integrate the soul into the Myriad Laws as well."
"’Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream’ pertains to the soul?"
Wang Ba was caught off guard for a moment.
But he quickly remembered the effects of the Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream, which are all about influencing a cultivator’s five senses and soul.
"In that case, it really is so!"
His eyes suddenly brightened!
The feature of the Dharma Lineage is that it can integrate all Cultivation Methods into oneself.
The key point was that the thoughts of all beings he absorbed, after being transformed by the Yin Shen Statue, became the Power of the Yin God, which did not harm him in any way.
"So you’re saying I can still cultivate this method?"
Wang Ba sought confirmation from Yao Wudi.
"You don’t have a choice but to cultivate it... I just saw that the temple is now intrinsically linked to your soul; you have no other option."
Yao Wudi shook his head, and then added, "But after all, it’s a method from the Kingdom of Immortals; no one knows if there might be latent issues. It’s best you still have precautions, even some means of restraint."
"Means of restraint?"
Wang Ba’s mind instinctively recalled that layer of malevolent, mysterious black substance formed by the ’Lifeline Defile Curse’ outside the temple.
He clearly remembered that the object formed by the Lifeline Defile Curse seemed to make the Yin Shen Statue somewhat fearful.
Associating it with the ’Divine Pattern Rites,’ he promptly sought advice from Yao Wudi:
"Master, about the path of Curse Arts, do you know where I can seek tutelage?"
"Curse Arts? Are you planning to grasp the Divine Patterns through this path?"
Yao Wudi thought for a moment, guessed Wang Ba’s intent, and after pondering for a while, said:
"To my knowledge, the inheritance of Curse Arts is most ancient and comprehensive in Tianmo Continent. We also have some Nascent Soul stage inheritances in our sect. However, since your goal is just to master the Divine Patterns, there’s no need for you to reach the Divine Transformation Level. That’s right, I remember that in the Sen State, there’s a place called ’Wanzhou School’ that is said to possess the most comprehensive Curse Arts in all of Fenglin Continent. You might want to check it out when you have the chance."
"Wanzhou School?"
Wang Ba faintly felt the name was familiar, but nevertheless, he took note of it in his heart.
He then consulted Yao Wudi about the influence of the Mother Qi of Dharmas on the Five Elements during Cultivation.
Yao Wudi casually explained this issue away:
"The suppression of the Five Elements by the Mother Qi of Dharmas is in fact an implicit refinement in our Cultivation. You just need to become familiar with the Mother Qi of Dharmas..."
After a thorough explanation, Wang Ba suddenly saw the light.
He then continuously sought advice on some ambiguous issues encountered in Cultivating ’Ride the Wind,’ ’Natural Law: Thunder Body,’ and ’Dragon-Tiger Yuankan Method.’
And Yao Wudi’s answers were often more direct than those of his teaching uncles.
Since both were from the Dharma Lineage, his guidance was highly relevant to Wang Ba.
The two of them simply sat cross-legged in the sky above the now-desolate East Saint Sect, one asking questions, the other answering.
This continued for half a month.
Under the guidance of Yao Wudi, Wang Ba also reviewed all the Cultivation Methods he had learned from start to finish.
He also gained new insights to various extents regarding the Five Elements, Wind, Thunder, and body refinement.
