Chapter 3142: Chapter 1608: Three Souls in One Body, Cao Erzhu, Uncle Dog Path Points the Way_2
“In terms of ancient martial arts cultivation,” you will soon perceive the “Three Realms.”
“What are the Three Realms? Severance, detachment, annihilation!”
“Expounded upon with the ideology of the Western Region Buddhist Sect, these correspond to the Desire Realm, the Color Realm, the Colorless Realm.”
“What ‘Severance, Detachment, Annihilation’ and ‘Desire, Color, Colorless Realms’ are, I will not tell you.”
...
Why?
Cao Erzhu tilted his head, expressing confusion.
If the uncle said it, since it’s boring now, maybe I could succeed in cultivating?
The Divine simply said,
“The Three Realms are endless in cultivation.”
“Mortals cultivating the Three Realms, is like forcibly initiating the Four Sacrifices on the Shengshen Continent, the outcome is certain death.”
“The Seven Emotions and Six Desires you have only grasped familial affection, as well as friendship, romantic love, and other various emotional desires, these experiences you cannot have in the blacksmith shop.”
I have had friendships…
Cao Erzhu thought of Sister August and the old man, a pity they had all left him, just like his father.
Cao Erzhu became sadder.
“Separation, too, is an emotion.”
“Reunion, too, is an experience.”
“When you can calmly deal with these emotions, that is when you can truly begin cultivating the Three Realms.”
“Before that…”
The Divine paused and smiled, “You need to start by experiencing romantic love, after going out, forget cultivating, and first find your beloved!”
Romantic love…
Cao Erzhu’s face turned red, slightly embarrassed.
He had heard of romantic love, read about it in “Spiritual Cultivation Hundred Mixed” and various books from neighbors.
He knew of The Divine and Xiang Yaoyao.
He understood Bazhun’an and Yue Gongnu.
He also knew, the reason he was born into this world, was because his father had also cultivated love, although…
Mother…
Cao Erzhu became even sadder.
The Divine sighed deeply, indeed, in times of idleness, one is prone to let their mind wander recklessly, and the dark environment can easily trap a person in their emotions.
He changed the topic:
“Ancient martial arts isn’t something that’s cultivated, it’s fought for. After you go out, you needn’t engage in arduous cultivation, but rather, you must first learn to ‘play’ and to ‘fight’.”
“These things, if you don’t understand, just follow Xu Xiaoshou, no need to consult, you will learn by subtle influences.”
Play…
Cao Erzhu did not know how to play.
But following Brother Shou, the experiences had been thrilling, joyful, that must be playing, right?
Fight…
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
He could still understand that.
Looking ahead, towards the darkness.
The treehouse was nowhere to be seen, the black branches that filled the surroundings had also lost their vitality, and the restraint of the Thirty Three Heavens had long since disappeared.
Cao Erzhu’s thoughts grew active: “Uncle, shall we, fight our way out?”
Now, going out, I would be directly facing the Di Ying Holy Plant and the Cursed Yin Evil God.
The Divine shook his head, “It’s not necessary to challenge the Ancestral Trees and the Ancestral God the moment you step out of the beginner’s stage, I really can’t comprehend your father’s standards.”
“But the branches are gone already…”
Cao Erzhu was quite moved.
The branches had lost their vitality much earlier.
The woman in the black dress stopped appearing too, and he faintly felt that the purple monster had also left.
This could be a great opportunity, perhaps they were busy with other things now, breaking out means winning!
“Erzhu, do you believe that pies fall from the sky?”
Yet Uncle’s words cooled Cao Erzhu down again.
Just like what his father said, such good fortune and coincidences couldn’t possibly happen, right?
“I don’t believe it.”
“That’s right, the enemy has only retreated a step and you can’t wait to press forward, falling into whatever traps may lie ahead.”
“But if we don’t fight our way out, we won’t know what traps there are ahead!” Cao Erzhu pouted his lips.
Well, that’s true too…
The Divine, helpless, if it were his own body, regardless of the traps outside, he would’ve fought his way out long ago.
But now this body belonged to Erzhu, absolutely not!
He could afford to be gone, for the chance to be revived.
If Kui Leihan knew his son was going to experience the agony of his physique turning to dust under his own care…
Not to mention Kui Leihan wouldn’t agree.
The Divine himself would not allow it.
About Erzhu this nephew of his, he didn’t say it, but he was very precious to him!
Cao Erzhu struggled for a while, then suddenly steeled his resolve and solemnly said,
“I want to go out!”
“Oh?”
The Divine was surprised, but would not decide against a young man’s determination after careful thought, only asking, “Why?”
Cao Erzhu was elated.
If it were his father, at this time he would be scolded or beaten, Uncle is too kind, actually negotiable?
He hastily explained, “I don’t know what traps are outside, but I do know, I don’t like sitting still anymore…”
Having stayed at the blacksmith shop for twenty-six years, he found liberation on Qingyuan Mountain indeed because his father’s restrictions were gone.
Cao Erzhu’s heart began to beat.
He would rather confront danger, confront death, than sit and wait.
Just as Brother Shou once said…
“Of all the officials and nobles, would any not want to be their own master?”
Does that have anything to do with “Of all the officials and nobles, would any not want to be their own master”… Listening to Erzhu’s courageous roar, The Divine fell silent for a moment then said,
“Follow the feeling in your heart.”
Perhaps, the journey of the Three Realms cultivation had already begun at this moment!
Cao Erzhu’s blood boiled, and he stood up abruptly from the ground.
“Thank you, Uncle.”
He extended a foot.
Stepped forward.
After taking one step there were no traps triggered.
Erzhu was overjoyed, “Uncle, there are no traps!”
“…”
Erzhu strode forward, taking ten more steps.
He satisfyingly crushed the branches of the treehouse that had trapped him, which didn’t react at all.
Erzhu was even more delighted, “Uncle, there really are no traps!”
“…”
Cao Erzhu started striding forward, swinging his arms, began to run into the darkness.
