Chapter 382 - Breaking Apart the Mystic Cultivation (2/2)
“…” Are you all retarded? It’s obvious that there’s something wrong with this method!
“But after so many years, the number of deviant ghosts did not reduce. Instead, it was increasing rapidly. From the looks of it… we should have recognized our mistake from the beginning. These deviant ghosts… No, these remnant souls do not need to be deported – they needed to be sent to Samsara.”
“…” Nonsense.
He turned to face Yi Qing. He cupped his fists and said in a serious manner, “Fellow Daoist Yi, Yun Heng is begging you to show us Mystic cultivators the cultivation that leads to future life. Save our world from facing these threats again and help the remnant souls to be reincarnated.”
Yi Qing frowned. Although he had guessed this earlier, he never thought that this would be the reason.
So they were only ruthless toward the remnant souls not because they were cruel, but because they did not know that these remnant souls were also parts of others’ souls. The funnier thing was that they called themselves Mystic cultivators who specializes in dealing with ghosts and spirits. Yet, they knew nothing about dealing with spirits apart from extinguishing them!
Suddenly, he recalled the Soul-Extinguishing Array. Yun Heng had merit in his body – he could indeed use that array to extinguish all the ghosts. But given the others’ cultivation levels, even jointly, they would not be able to activate even a tenth of the array’s powers. The most they would have been able to do was dissipate the souls. Yet, the remnant souls did not enter the River of Forgetfulness. Instead, because of the grievous energy in their bodies, they gathered back together.
Afterall, this was a small world. That was probably why the deviant ghosts managed to grow in numbers that threatened them all so greatly.
So all of this happened because their cultivation techniques were incomplete. One might even say they were severely lacking in this area. According to logic, the Spirit Qi in different small worlds would be different in terms of richness. However, in the end, they would all end up on the road to immortal cultivation. Yet, this particular world seemed to have fallen off the path somewhere along the way. What’s more, they were deviating more and more as time went by.
“I can help you,” Yi Qing said in a low voice. “I can teach you not just the Future Life Array. I can also teach you other techniques related to ghosts, spirits and the supernatural.”
Yun Heng’s face exploded with elation.
“But…” Yi Qing added. “You have to make all of the Mystic cultivators stop using the Soul-Extinguishing Array immediately.”
“Of course!” Yun Heng nodded profusely. Since he knew that those deviant ghosts were remnant souls, he had no intention to allow anyone to use the array any longer.
“And can you let me see the manuals of your so-called Mystic cultivation?”
“Alright. This concerns saving our world – I’m sure everyone would be agreeable.”
“Hmm.”
“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yi. I will go and instruct the rest of the patriarchs to gather their disciples now.”
“Hmm.”
“And the major races of the Mystic cultivators will all arrive here within three days. They will spread this news to all of the Mystic cultivators under the Heavens.”
“Go then.”
“Fellow Daoist Yi…”
“Yes?”
“Your subordinate has one last question.”
“Talk.”
“I want to ask…” He suddenly pointed to his forehead. Then, he turned around and glanced at the person behind him. “Why is it that this lady has been hanging this piece of gray cloth over my head ever since I entered?”
Yi Qing: “…”
Shen Ying, “…”
Ah! I’m discovered!
My concealment technique is not up to scratch today – the moldy ghost hasn’t even dried up yet!
