Chapter 378: Goodwill from a Saint, The Buddha’s cultivation

Chapter 378: Goodwill from a Saint, The Buddha's cultivation

How powerful must one's cultivation be to shoulder the great Karma of the Dark Forbidden Lord?

Han Jue thought about it and figured he probably needed to become a Saint.

Otherwise, it would be easy to become a chess piece for the Saints.

Even someone as strong as Zu Tu in the tribulation was a chess piece for the Saints, let alone him.

If he were to admit right now that he was the Dark Forbidden Lord, or admit it while in the Grand Unity Realm or Quasi-Saint realm, he would not escape a single word.

Death!

Han Jue roused his spirits and began to Cultivate.

Casting Dark Nightmare only consumed divine origin magical power and Divine Thought. Han Jue did not fight in the dream, so his condition remained intact, and he could Cultivate directly.

Great Dao Divine Abilities were merely Divine Abilities; cultivation was the true Foundation.

For example, Kong Xuan from Investiture of the Gods possessed the Five-Color Divine Light, which could sweep away anything. He was incomparably powerful, and even Saints lost Face in his hands, but so what?

Didn't he still lose in the end?

Han Jue's goal was to attain the Grand Unity Realm before this tribulation ended.

This was his lowest goal!

Before the next tribulation, he wanted to be at least a Quasi-Saint, and do his utmost to Attain the Dao and become a Saint. Then, the next tribulation would be his era.

If he could not become a Saint, he would just wait for the next one.

Han Jue had a long lifespan; he had plenty of time to grind it out.

…

Ten years later.

Han Jue took out the book of misfortune, cursed his enemies, and checked his mail at the same time.

[Your friend Immortal God Ji obtained a Heavenly Dao baleful supreme treasure, and his Luck surged]

[Your Grand-disciple Fang Liang was attacked by a Demon Race Immortal Emperor] x3

[Your Dao Companion Xuan Qingjun received guidance from a Mysterious Great Power in a dream, and her Dao Cultivation surged greatly]

[Your friend Lord Jingtian cursed the netherworld, and his Karma surged]

[Your friend Great Divine General received guidance from a Saint and learned a Heavenly Dao Divine Ability]

[Your disciple Long Hao was attacked by your friend Li Daokong and suffered severe injuries, fortunately saved by a Mysterious Great Power]

[Your friend Li Daokong was attacked by a Mysterious Great Power]

[Your friend Tai Su Tian was attacked by your Dao Companion Xing Hongxuan]

…

Tsk tsk!

A Heavenly Dao baleful supreme treasure!

Immortal God Ji is about to soar straight into the skies!

Han Jue knew best just how powerful a heavenly dao supreme treasure was. With the word balefulness added, it probably wouldn't be bad either.

If this fellow survived the tribulation, would he become a figure like the next Heavenly Emperor, Demon Emperor, or Zu Tu?

Han Jue noticed that Xuan Qingjun receiving guidance from a Great Power in a dream definitely had a conspiracy behind it. He had to use the Deduction Function to check!

Lord Jingtian was reliable; he truly followed Han Jue's orders.

Tai Su Tian was starting to approach Xing Hongxuan?

While cursing, Han Jue felt anxious.

Directly cursing Tai Su Tian to death would inevitably offend Nuwa.

Tai Su Tian's target was Han Jue; it was impossible for Nuwa not to suspect Han Jue.

No way!

He had to give Xing Hongxuan a reminder.

Han Jue asked in his heart: "I want to know what Tai Su Tian's purpose is in approaching me."

[Requires deducting one billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

Han Jue felt dizzy right after.

Opening his eyes again, he arrived inside a vast hall with bright lighting. Tai Su Tian was kneeling before a divine statue.

The divine statue was that of a woman with a gentle expression and a compassionate aura.

"This child is a variable. I hope you can descend to the mortal world, wash away Karma, approach him, and gain his trust." The divine statue emitted a gentle voice.

A Saint, Nuwa!

Tai Su Tian asked curiously: "Why approach him? What is the purpose?"

Nuwa replied: "He might be the opportunity for the Human Race and Yao Race to resolve their hatred. The Heavenly Dao has forty-nine paths, leaving one thread of vitality. This thread of vitality might just be him. If you form a good affinity with him, it will be easier for me to contact him in the future."

"Are you sure?"

"Not sure. Lately, the variables of the Heavenly Dao have been increasing. I can only choose one to place my bet on. This child is naturally cautious and never actively provokes trouble. His Karma is extremely minimal. With his talent, he should have walked the path of a Prodigy, but he didn't. This reminds me of the Dao Ancestor."

"Dao Ancestor? Does he have a connection with the Dao Ancestor?"

"Naturally not, but I feel he might walk the path of the Dao Ancestor. Of course, that's just a possibility."

After hearing this, Tai Su Tian fell into thought.

The illusion shattered right then and there.

Han Jue fell into silence, and the book of misfortune in his hand also stopped.

Hm?

What is going on?

Turns out Nuwa had Tai Su Tian approach him with good intentions, so why would Tai Su Tian try to harm Xing Hongxuan?

Han Jue felt he must investigate this clearly.

He could ruthlessly kill enemies, but he couldn't turn goodwill into hatred.

There might be other conspiracies hidden within this.

"I want to know why Tai Su Tian wants to kill Xing Hongxuan."

Han Jue continued to use the Deduction Function.

[Unable to deduce. She has no murderous intent.]

Han Jue was stunned.

No murderous intent?

Could the future have changed again?

Han Jue could only change the topic and ask: "I want to know who guided Xuan Qingjun in her dream."

[Requires deducting five hundred million years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

A graceful figure emerged in Han Jue's mind, followed by a line of text appearing before his eyes.

[Empress Houtu: cultivation unknown, Master of Reincarnation]

So it was Empress Houtu.

Was this goodwill toward Han Jue, or did she have alternative motives?

Han Jue continued to ask: "Does she harbor any malicious intent toward Xuan Qingjun?"

[No malicious intent.]

This time, lifespan was not deducted. It seemed that if two questions were related, the second question would not deduct lifespan.

Han Jue put his mind at ease and resumed cursing his enemies.

The tribulation was truly becoming more and more terrifying, causing Han Jue to develop psychological shadows, fearing that those around him would meet a calamity.

Han Jue had thought of using Dark Nightmare to call Xing Hongxuan and Xuan Qingjun back, but by doing so, the two women would know he possessed this kind of Divine Ability, planting the seeds of a potential exposure of his identity. It was too dangerous; he couldn't take the risk.

…

Another twenty years passed.

Just as Han Jue finished cursing his enemies, he suddenly sensed various auras.

Another force had arrived in the Nine Nether Purgatory!

Han Jue was speechless.

He immediately detected the powerful enemies around him.

Although the Dao field had been upgraded, its detection range still could not cover the entire Nine Nether Purgatory.

The newly arrived force was very far from the Dao field, so Han Jue couldn't detect them either.

"Come if they want, as long as they don't disturb me."

Han Jue thought this to himself. Recently, Jie Sect did not dare to move around everywhere, perhaps because they ran into the Primordial Phoenix, or perhaps because they couldn't withstand the long-term erosion of Karma.

Han Jue asked in his heart: "Which force has arrived?"

[Requires deducting ten million years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

[Divine Palace]

It turned out to be them!

Han Jue raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat uneasy in his heart.

The reason Divine Palace suffered a defeat was mainly because he had cursed Zu Tu.

Although no one knew it was him, he still felt unsettled in his heart. Moreover, Murong Qi had a mortal feud with the Divine Palace.

No, he had to stay further away from them.

Han Jue manipulated Hidden Sect Island and headed deeper into the realm.

Half an hour later, Han Jue finally stopped. After warning the members of the Hidden Sect, he continued to Cultivate.

The once-in-a-century Hidden Sect grand competition commenced once again.

With Han Jue not participating, Vajra Rage monopolized first place.

Jiang Yi fought a bloody battle with Black Prison Demon Lord, barely winning and feeling extremely proud.

Black Prison Demon Lord and Severing the Mortal World took third and fourth places respectively, both feeling very displeased.

Fifth place was Li Yao, and sixth place was neither Murong Qi nor Tu Ling'er, but Chu Shiren!

The Buddha was beginning to rise!

Li Yao looked at Chu Shiren with a complex expression and asked: "Did you hold back?"

Everyone else also looked toward Chu Shiren.

Chu Shiren calmly said: "I merely sparred with you all using this lifetime's cultivation; I am indeed inferior to others."

Chaos Heavenly Dog couldn't help asking: "Could it be that you can still display your past life's cultivation?"

Chu Shiren hesitated for a moment and slowly nodded.

The update is late, consider it a midnight bomb. I'll strive for four updates today!
