The Heart-Pounding Secret_3 Chapter 973: 390: The Mysterious Strong Man who Cultivates Both Buddhist and Ghostly Paths!
The Heart-Pounding Secret_3 Since he couldn’t make contact with the Ancestor through the Hall of Human Heart, Chen Dengming could only hope that his incarnations would be able to find him.
However, given the elusive nature of Deity Transformation Dao Lord, an incarnation finding the Ancestor Lu Xiucheng was as likely as finding a needle in a haystack.
Chen Dengming didn’t hold out much hope.
The main task of the several Sects’ incarnations that had gone out was to observe the situation in all directions, which was also the very thing he urgently needed to do.
“The Incense Fire Incarnation also suffered some injuries and needs to heal…
...
The situation in all directions is unclear for the time being, I should stay in seclusion within the Sect for now, waiting for news, and try not to go out…”
Previously, the Incense Fire Incarnation, following his order, had made a sneak attack, heavily injuring the Body Saint Palace’s master Cao Zhiqing.

But after all, Cao Zhiqing was a late-stage Nascent Soul old monster, not someone an Incense Fire Incarnation still in the Nascent Soul stage could easily subdue.
In the end, Cao Zhiqing naturally escaped, and the Incense Fire Incarnation also suffered serious injuries.
However, the Incense Fire Incarnation’s mission at the time was to attack the foe, to prevent Cao Zhiqing from having time to heal, and to rejoin the battle after recovering, posing a threat.
Managing to drive the enemy away, the Incense Fire Incarnation had indeed completed its mission.
While contemplating, Chen Dengming felt the air’s moisture content seemed to be increasing.
A musty, moldy scent was growing stronger in the cave dwelling, suggesting an imminent downpour.
He immediately rose and formed hand seals, activating the cave dwelling’s Formation to start driving away the moist air and clean.
This empty cave dwelling, though luxurious, now lacked Ling’er’s presence and thus appeared overly solemn and oppressive.
Chen Dengming knocked on the Soul House while stepping out of the cave dwelling.
“Dao…
Dao friend, you seem to be in a bad mood?”
From inside the Soul House, a somewhat concerned voice of the Mini Array Spirit came through.
Chen Dengming walked out of the cave dwelling, glanced at the overcast sky, and took a deep breath of the refreshing air from the mountain forest, saying pensively,
“Ling’er, have you ever heard of a highly skilled individual who seems to be practicing both the Buddhist and Ghost Paths and might also be a strong fighter at the Unity Realm Stage?”
Mentioning this mysterious powerful figure spoken of by Dongfang Huayuan always gave Chen Dengming a sense of familiarity.
Particularly as Dongfang Huayuan said that this person was skilled in the techniques of the Ghost Path.
Ghost Cultivators, considered the least among the Five Dao Systems of Immortal Origin, rarely achieve He Dao, especially after ancient times—such individuals are virtually non-existent.
This seemed to subtly point to a ruthless figure from the days beneath the Nether Spring.
“A highly skilled individual who might be at the Unification Realm but practices both the Buddhist and Ghost Paths?”
The Mini Array Spirit was also confused hearing this, and then, with a trembling tone, stuttered, “Could it be, could it be…
the Ghost Emperor Yuan from the past?
According to your guess, it’s just that this person is suspected to be the Unification Realm strong fighter who practiced the Earth Immortal Path.
He established the Netherworld Mansion and made a grand vow…
This has been the tale of the strongest Ghost Cultivator passed down over the last few thousand years, so how could there be another He Dao strong fighter that practices both the Buddhist and Ghost Paths?”
Chen Dengming furrowed his eyebrows in thought, “Back then, Ghost Emperor Yuan aspired to establish the Netherworld Mansion, an abode for Reincarnation, to make it a paradise comparable to the Heavenly Immortal World, Mortal World, God Celestial Court, and Earth Spirit World…
But he ultimately failed.
If, I mean if, Ghost Emperor Yuan not only cultivated the Dao of Earth and Ghost Path but also practiced the Buddhist Path, with countless Ghost Shades as his incense fire followers…”
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt palpitations for some reason, accompanied by a vague sense of unease.
Ever since inheriting the Dao Orthodoxy of spirit, as his spiritual realm had advanced, he had developed an almost premonitory sense of impending danger.
At this moment, he sensed danger.
Chen Dengming immediately silenced himself, swiftly adjusted his memories, and quickly changed the subject, talking about other matters with the Mini Array Spirit.
He didn’t dare to continue thinking in that direction, while internally, he scolded himself severely.
He had been warned before by Dongfang Huayuan not to know too much about the affairs of the strong.
Now, out of curiosity, he had almost courted trouble.
The Mini Array Spirit’s perception was equally sharp, noticing Chen Dengming’s abrupt change in topic, it immediately recognized something was amiss, quickly suspended certain conjectures, and dismissed the previous thoughts.
…
A short while passed.
The sense of danger gradually dissipated.
By then, rainfall had begun, creating a downpour with cold moisture rising, which seemed to lighten the heavy atmosphere.
Both the person and spirit breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts still racing.
Hopefully, they hadn’t inadvertently stumbled upon some earth-shattering secret that even the Deity Transformation Dao Lord would fear.
Being merely at the Nascent Soul stage, it would be best to mind one’s own business…
