It's only three years old, what kind of whitewashing system is this?

Chapter 225 Carving!

"However, I never expected that I would still end up like this."

Ancestor Cangmu was deeply moved.

He desperately hoped to ascend to the throne, but when he actually got to that point, he became hesitant.

Although we haven't yet obtained the power of a quasi-emperor, a window has already opened in front of us.

"Becoming a quasi-emperor at this time, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."

While feeling fortunate, Ancestor Cangmu was also somewhat disappointed.

To be able to see the realm I've always dreamed of at the very last moment.

He is already very satisfied.

Rumble!

Above the sky, the winds and clouds change color.

The sky seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, with thick, inky clouds churning and surging.

One by one, powerful figures stood tall in the raging wind, their bodies radiating brilliant spiritual light.

Sword energy surged like rainbows, flames rained down, and the river roared deafeningly…

The powerful figures simply stood still, and an endless, wondrous phenomenon arose.

In an instant, golden Buddhist light, black demonic shadows, and green life force...

Various spiritual energies intertwined and collided, triggering an earth-shattering shock.

If they hadn't arrived at the Quasi-Emperor level first, King Taibai and Fairy Chenyu, who had already attained enlightenment, wouldn't have made their move.

I fear there will be no living creature left by the Spirit Spring.

After overcoming their inner demons, each powerful individual experienced a rapid increase in strength.

Three more people became quasi-emperors, while the Dao hearts of the others were also strengthened, and their cultivation reached new heights.

At this level, even a slight improvement is extremely valuable.

With the help of Su Yun and the Mind-Imitating Monster, the strength of this group of experts improved significantly.

The Great Sage can easily suppress a Saint, while a Quasi-Emperor can easily kill the Great Sage.

After this, our overall strength has increased more than tenfold!

If this group were released outside, it could probably rewrite the order of the Tianyuan Realm.

Looking at this group of powerful individuals who had just gained new strength, they all closed their eyes and sat cross-legged to consolidate their power.

Master Hongjue, however, felt no worry or fear; on the contrary, he was very pleased.

After helping the last powerful figure find his inner demon, Su Yun couldn't help but ask, "Master, why don't you go and ask about the path of the heart?"

This monk was always detached from worldly affairs and remained aloof from the crowd.

I'll only lend a hand when needed.

It seems that I have no enthusiasm for walking the path of self-reflection.

Master Hongjue pointed to himself and laughed, "Me? No need."

He said mysteriously, "Look..."

Wow.

A small golden Buddha appeared in Master Hongjue's palm.

The golden Buddha statue is covered in a dazzling array of colors, as if the entire world is reflected on its surface.

Behind his head, there was also a disc-shaped halo, which was extremely majestic.

Su Yun blinked: "Master is already an Emperor?"

“Alas!” Master Hongjue waved his hand, “A quasi-emperor, nothing more than a quasi-emperor.”

Su Yun nodded, thinking that made sense.

In the story, the Chosen One and the Demon Lord also traversed the Path of Inquiry, but not the one through Yi Fang Garden.

Master Hongjue was merely a peripheral figure, akin to a sweeping monk.

During the chaotic battle between the Chosen One and the Demon Lord in the Great Qian Dynasty, Master Hongjue appeared out of nowhere and briefly suppressed the two.

It now appears that he and this group of powerful individuals were all hiding in the Path of Inquiry.

They wouldn't have intervened if the Great Qian hadn't been utterly destroyed.

But with one move, all the previous quiet cultivation was reduced to ashes, which is truly a pity.

Master Hongjue broke through the Buddhist realm a thousand years ago.

If it's just a sacred realm, the Buddhist sect has the advantage of being the host, so it might not be that simple.

If he is already a quasi-emperor, then it makes sense.

Su Yun asked curiously, "Master, don't you want to take it a step further?"

Becoming a quasi-emperor in a thousand years—everyone would want to take that final step.

Master Hongjue smiled bitterly: "If I could leave, I would have left long ago. This humble monk does not have that talent, so I will not seize the destiny of heaven."

Su Yun said, "No wonder Master didn't go on the Path of Inquiry; it turns out he has eliminated his inner demons."

Master Hongjue smiled bitterly, "How can there be no inner demons?"

"If only I could live a simple life like them."

"Unfortunately, my inner demons cannot be resolved by seeking the path of the mind or by imitating the mind monster."

Su Yun also knew that the Mind-Imitating Monster wasn't actually that strong.

Its effect here is purely due to the abundant flow of energy, resulting in a chemical reaction between the two.

This group of powerful individuals are among the most elite in the Tianyuan Realm, having been sifted through the sands of history; each one is a true gem.

To ascend to the throne, one needs to be powerful in all aspects, from cultivation to mind.

Knowing their own shortcomings, they embarked on the path of self-examination, attempting to strengthen their Daoist heart through trials and tribulations.

The mind-altering monster can be used to find past events that even they have forgotten.

Little by little, I rediscovered my true self.

These people were already the strongest. Once they discovered their shortcomings, they didn't need anyone's guidance and could solve them in an instant.

Whether it's domineering or gentle, it's all about how you connect with yourself and your inner self.

What Su Yun did was both simple and complex; he merely provided the conditions for becoming an emperor, along with some minor information.

A few words, or a few old images, are worthless.

Information asymmetry, however, is invaluable.

The strong only need a little reminder, and they can walk the rest of the way on their own.

Master Hongjue has already walked his own path; what he needs to walk is the path of the common people.

Su Yun hummed in agreement: "That's true..."

In the story, Master Hongjue is just a sweeping monk who uses his position to suppress the chosen one and the demon lord.

But in this life, Su Yun also realized that the old man in front of him could indeed be called a holy monk.

He gave everything he had, just to save all the people in the world.

It was simply because of limited strength and setting an impossible goal.

It was not completed.

But in terms of his heart, he was truly great.

Master Hongjue chuckled: "Young friend, you need not worry about this humble monk. You should have no problem traversing this path."

"I thank you on behalf of these old folks. Once you've crossed this road, go back home and don't worry your family."

"I'll handle my own affairs."

Even now, he is still very concerned.

He never cared whether his own goals could be achieved.

Despite Master Hongjue's fierce gaze, he possessed the heart of a Bodhisattva.

But this compassionate heart concealed a sense of loss known only to herself.

How difficult it is to save all living beings! Heaven is merciless, treating all things like straw dogs.

The world is inherently unfair, so how can one claim to have saved all beings?

Master Hongjue waved his hand, preparing to say goodbye to the child he had met once before.

My life is almost over.

Looking at these friends who have been together for hundreds or thousands of years, one by one they have attained their own path.

Even though Master Hongjue was broad-minded, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Just then, Su Yun spoke up: "Actually, the matter of saving all living beings has already been resolved."

Master Hongjue remained completely unmoved, taking it as a joke: "Young friend is teasing this humble monk."

A stroke of luck can bring about a quasi-emperor, and a cultivation boost can create a top-tier expert.

It is possible to suddenly awaken to the supreme Dharma overnight.

But what if someone said they had found a way to bring happiness and well-being to all people?

Nobody will believe it's true.

Su Yun replied earnestly, "It's true. There's an older brother who found a solution."

Master Hongjue chuckled: "Very well, then when you go back, remember to bring the method back to this old monk so he can broaden his horizons."

Su Yun looked around and said, "I remember!"

He found a flat stone slab, took out the dagger that Little Bone had conjured, and began to carve it with a creaking sound.

Supreme Holy Bone: "..."

This supreme artifact allows one to smoothly ascend to the throne as long as the host remains alive.

It was actually used as a carving knife.

The sacred bone is hard and sharp, making it easy to carve into stone.

Su Yun scribbled away, just like holding a pen and carving out large, powerful characters on a stone!

Master Hongjue hesitated for a moment, but still stood up.

He couldn't believe that anyone could come up with a way to benefit all living beings and save all people.

This isn't some top-tier martial art, so how can it bring blessings to the world?

But with such a gem preceding them, seeing how Su Yun, relying on an ordinary mind-simulating monster, actually helped these old guys find their inner demons and reach a new level.

Such a person, blessed with great fortune, might actually have his own methods.

"Why are you getting so nervous watching a child write?"

Master Hongjue gave a wry smile, shook his body, and loosened his joints.

Hope rose in his heart, but fear rose even greater than hope!

Fear will plummet from the clouds to utter despair!

Master Hongjue tried to relax and reminded himself that he was just watching a child write, and should not devote too much energy to it.

He composed himself, and instead of using his divine sense, he walked to the other side of the rock and looked over.

“This is…” Master Hongjue read out the words on the screen.

"The Strategies of a Prosperous Nation?"
