Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 246 - 159: The Heavenly Dao Has Changed, So What?
The remaining True Masters of the Mingyun Sect observed, also paying their respects.
This further strengthened Cultivator Shen Yu's understanding.
Although this attention was based on the words of his master, that a single sentence from the master could make them believe and take it so seriously was enough to demonstrate the master's status.
This made Cultivator Shen Yu even more expectant of what his master meant by the "Sect."
What needed to be done at this moment would also become much simpler.
"No matter, in the face of a great calamity, these are just trivial matters," Cultivator Shen Yu said directly, looking at the Mingyun Sect Master and the others in front of him, and directly accepted this apology without any guilt.
Clearly, this attitude was the most appropriate at this moment.
Seeing the increasingly serious expressions of the others, Cultivator Shen Yu wasted no more time and continued, "I have come today mainly for two things. The first is to inform everyone that the demon cultivators can continue to make breakthroughs with the demon cultivation method, and their success rate is even higher than before."
With one sentence, the face of everyone present, including the Mingyun Sect Master, even Qingfeng True Master, changed drastically.
Clearly, although they were aware of the existence of demon cultivators, they were unaware that demon cultivators could still make breakthroughs!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken such care after seeing Cultivator Shen Yu, who had just recently reached the True Master Realm, and should have immediately suspected whether Cultivator Shen Yu had practiced the demon cultivation method.
Suddenly learning about this news, the impact was immense!
All were True Masters, even Earth Immortals, so naturally, they could instantly realize what it would mean if this were true!
Righteous cultivators were all troubled by breakthrough matters, and trying to break through inevitably meant death.
But demon cultivators could more easily make breakthroughs with the demon cultivation method.
What is the demon cultivation method?
Two words: "Cannibalism"!
"Bloody tempest, cosmic catastrophe!" Qingfeng True Master murmured in astonishment, "How can it be like this! Heavenly Dao... how can it be like this!"
Even the Mingyun Sect Master, an Earth Immortal, reacted similarly.
His face was equally full of shock and even horror.
If it were just the impossibility of a breakthrough, one might ponder where the problem occurred, but now with the righteous path finding it hard to break through, and the demon path more easily succeeding, the reasons behind such an obvious inclination are terrifying to the extreme!
Moreover, it will inevitably bring endless bloody tempest!
For cultivators and the mortal world, it will surely be a true catastrophe.
Qingfeng True Master even looked fiercely at Cultivator Shen Yu, seeking confirmation as he asked, "Is this true?"
"Naturally."
Cultivator Shen Yu replied without hesitation, lifting his hand to clearly reveal the information he had investigated and the words and scenes displayed after those demon cultivators surrounded him.
Though no one doubted any more, the shock on their faces did not dissipate.
The demon cultivators had even begun using this to lure the righteous path into the demon path.
Especially the phrase "the Heavenly Dao has changed," which caused even several True Masters to tremble slightly, their Dao hearts unstable.
After all, in this world, no matter what kind of cultivation technique it was, it was about understanding the Great Dao, aligning with the Great Dao!
The deeper the alignment, the stronger it became.
Even the demon cultivation method was such.
The weak become the prey to the strong, a natural law!
However, although the demon cultivation method didn't violate the Heavenly Dao Rules, it did violate the principle of Human Dao!
If the Heavenly Dao has changed to favor the demon cultivation method more... it would be a calamity for Human Dao!
How could this not make these people terrified and shocked?
Cultivator Shen Yu knew it was time for him to speak up formally.
He slightly adjusted his stern expression yet spoke in a calm tone, "Although this matter is a bit beyond expectations, it is not as you all think, that the foundation of the Heavenly Dao has changed."
"What?"
Everyone's gaze instantly focused on Cultivator Shen Yu.
In their shaken state of mind, some True Masters couldn't help but retort bluntly, "What else could it be if not the Heavenly Dao changing? Our righteous cultivation method is clearly abandoned by the Heavenly Dao!"
Indeed, in their understanding, this was the only explanation.
The Heavenly Dao had changed, the righteous path method could no longer align with the Heavenly Dao, so it couldn't break through, while the demon path method aligned more!
As soon as this thought arises, it immediately fills one with a sense of helpless despair.
As cultivators chasing the Heavenly Dao, to be abandoned by it, what cultivation path is left?
The countless cultivation techniques that the sages and predecessors of the righteous path painstakingly created, including the foundation of the Immortal Sect, lost efficacy in an instant!
Henceforth, the world will belong to the demon cultivators!
But Cultivator Shen Yu raised an eyebrow: "I refer to the foundation of the Heavenly Dao, that is, the foundation of the path of cultivation. Your current understanding is merely you being limited by being a single world, a shallow understanding as natives under a single Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao Rules, the Extraordinary Source, are not that simple."
These words, along with the subtle arrogance that seeped through, undoubtedly left everyone present bewildered.
What does it mean to be limited by a single world, as natives under a single Heavenly Dao?
Aside from Qingfeng True Master, who vaguely understood Cultivator Shen Yu's origin, the others clearly did not comprehend.
However, Cultivator Shen Yu did not intend to explain in detail.
He planned to speak with reality.
"This is the second reason I came here. Master, I am preparing to let you first break through to the Earth Immortal Realm," Cultivator Shen Yu said.
"What?"
At this, not only Qingfeng True Master but everyone else was astonished.
The Mingyun Sect Master, as the esteemed Earth Immortal, could not remember how many times today he was shocked by Cultivator Shen Yu.
But now, it was truly unbearable. He couldn't even maintain his demeanor.
He eagerly asked, "Do you have a way for Qingfeng True Master to break through using the Righteous Path Method?"
He emphasized the words "Righteous Path Method."
Other True Masters were also quite excited.
The reason was simple. Although they could not yet correctly understand the "Heavenly Dao," they believed that as long as breakthroughs could still be made with the Righteous Path Method, it implied the method was not completely forsaken by the Heavenly Dao!
Facing the eager gazes of a group of powerhouses, Cultivator Shen Yu only slightly nodded and calmly said, "Though it is unclear what occurred in this realm, even if the Heavenly Dao has indeed changed, so what? The breakthrough method I speak of is simple: if it's impossible to break through under the Heavenly Dao Rules of this realm, then simply leave this world. By stepping out of the Heavenly Dao's constraint and using the basic cultivation laws contained within spiritual energy, one can still achieve breakthroughs."
"Is that so..." Qingfeng True Master found it hard to believe.
But he ultimately understood.
After all, Cultivator Shen Yu had previously mentioned that his origins lay outside the entire cosmos!
Not just outside the world, but outside the cosmos!
What Qingfeng True Master couldn't believe was that one could still break through after leaving the world and leaving the Heavenly Dao.
However, others were entirely bewildered.
What does it mean to leave this world, jump out of the Heavenly Dao's constraints?
In their understanding, what is the Heavenly Dao?
It is omnipresent, the inherent rules and truths of everything in existence.
How could one possibly step out of this?
Clearly, this was a cognitive gap.
Explaining it would be too complicated and might not even be believable.
It's better to let them witness it firsthand.
Cultivator Shen Yu directly looked at his master and said solemnly, "After learning that demon cultivators could break through, I returned once and applied within the association for a newly developed 'Land of Accommodation,' a place specifically used to receive beings beyond Gray Mist Walker. Though it's currently barren, it truly lies outside this world and is not constrained or influenced by the Heavenly Dao of this realm. Master can arrange it a bit there and undergo your breakthrough."
