”Wow! You're so powerful, amazing, and great! Everything that you said is true! You fucking know all about me! But it won't work! Now that you know me so well, you should know that what you asked me to do is far beyond my capability. I can't do that at all. What you said is of no use!”
”I didn't ask you to do it now. I want you to do it after you've seized the Azure Secret Area!” He cast his eyes at Zhou Bao as he said, ”Don't overrate the Sea Emperor. Well, it doesn't matter. He is also overrating himself now, so he would never think that anyone in the world would dare to grab the Ranking of Demons and Immortals. That is your first advantage. And the second one is your Fiery Eyes. It's what the Emperor of the Moon Temple asked his necromancers to study. It is one of the strongest bloodlines imitating the Bloodline Power of the Innate Deity and can control the Wheel of Fate and affect the Ranking of Demons and Immortals and the Golden Book of Fate. At this point, even the Sea Emperor can't compare with you! Besides, you have a third advantage: if you really can master Azure Heaven and capture the projection of the Golden Book of Fate, then you will naturally know some of the mysteries of the Ranking of Demons and Immortals. After all, the Golden Book of Fate and the Ranking of Demons and Immortals come from the same source. Fully grasp the projection of the Golden Book of Fate, and you'll have succeeded more than halfway!”
”Don't say those unfounded things. It's too hard. I won't do it!”
”You can neither beat me nor run away from me. You have no power to refuse me. I know so much about you, and you should know that if I want to, I can instantly make you have no shelter in the world. So, honestly cooperate with me!”
”Did all of you ask for help like this in antiquity times?”
”No, so much talking was not required in antiquity times!” The man shook his head. ”If you promise me that you'll do this, I'll give you a lot of benefits. Don't you want to save your companions? ”I can send you to the Dragon Abyss Prison with the Great Way of Heavens and Realms right now and show you a way to ensure that you leave safely!”
”You might as well impart the Great Way of Heavens and Realms to me and let me go and leave there by myself!”
”You're really greedy! It's okay to impart it to you, but you seem to have some misunderstandings about it!”
”Misunderstandings?”
”Yes. There are 3,000 kinds of methods to the Great Ways in this world. Attaining mastery of anyone can gain one insight into a Great Way, which is passed down from primitive times, so that all people take it for granted that the 3,000 Great Ways are the best ways in the world!”
”Aren't they?”
”You can't say that it's wrong, but it's neither clear nor practical. It's true that if you can realize, understand, and comprehend one of these Great Ways, you can indeed attain enlightenment. But from primordial times through primitive times to the present, how many people have really comprehended one of the 3,000 Great Ways? None, not one. Thus, no one has ever achieved enlightenment!”
”It doesn't work?”
”It works, of course it works, but what's the difference?” The man produced a forced smile. ”Therefore, the energy of a person and a creature is limited. The 3,000 Great Ways are the general principle of Dharma, and it is impossible to study them thoroughly for hundreds of thousands of years or even millions of years! It's better to patiently practice the thousands of cultivation methods that evolved from the 3,000 Great Ways. It's the most practical method of practice. I think your Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique has reached the Basic level. Have you already condensed the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument?”
”Yes, I've already condensed the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument!”
”Then, how do you feel about it? Don't you think it has an undeserved reputation? As one of the 3,000 Great Ways, it is no more powerful than the other methods that you've practiced. Sometimes, it is not even as convenient as some Pure Yang Celestial Devices!”
”Yeah!” His words had struck a responsive chord in Zhou Bao's heart. He did have that feeling. The Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique was known as the nemesis of all great evils in the world, but both its attacking force and defensive power were not outstanding. It could only work by relying on his Internal Qi and Real Essence that were innumerably more energetic than others', which had puzzled him. Since he did not know much about the abstruse methods of the 3,000 Great Ways at that time, he thought it was because he had not attained the proper degree. Now after hearing this man's words, he realized that it was not that he had not attained the proper degree, but that the proper degree did not exist at all, so he could not help feeling dejected.
”The greatest function of the 3,000 Great Ways is not to cultivate, but to comprehend, to contrast. As for the degree you can finally obtain, it doesn't matter! For example, I used the Heavens Division to move you from the bottom of the sea to this Netherworld Heaven. And the Heavens Division can't affect your Three Realms Division. However, I have a profound comprehension of the Great Way of Heavens and Realms, so I disturbed the time and space as I displayed the Heavens Division, which made your Three Realms Division useless. That's the most practical effect of the 3,000 Great Ways!”
”You don't have to spend too much time trying to practice it, but can just use it for comprehension, contrast, and evolution?”
