Chapter 259: The historical text of this world, the great opportunity in the Hunyuan space
In this small world, it is as peaceful as water, with deep valleys and swaying bamboo forests.

In the small courtyard in the bamboo forest, Shen Mu sat quietly on a piece of blue stone, his eyes slightly closed, his expression focused, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the contemplation of the mysteries of the "Self Mind Sutra".

An inexplicable feeling of oppression surged up, and time and space seemed to have solidified. Only traces of the rules of the mind and the Tao were vaguely intertwined around Shen Mu.

Suddenly, a terrifying will impact raged in the small world like a surging wave. Pure will interfered with the real world, without using any divine power or soul power, but the entire small world seemed to be collapsing.

The terrifying gale howled, the bamboo forest was destroyed, the courtyard wall collapsed, and the entire valley was in ruins.

This is Shen Mu’s secret technique of will, and its main purpose is to interfere with reality with will.

Now Shen Mu's will has not reached the ultimate level, but it can also affect real matter, not just suppress the thinking of other strong people.

Fortunately, Shen Mu was the only one in the small world, otherwise others would have been severely affected.

“The more you delve into the mysteries of the mind… the easier it is to go astray.”

"Fortunately, with the help of the Wanling Treasure Furnace, I can study the great Dao from the perspective of all living beings, and I will be less likely to be blinded by one thing."

A smile appeared on Shen Mu's face, and a feeling of great joy and tranquility spread. He was immersed in the way of mind again.

The crystal clear Wanling Treasure Furnace was suspended above Shen Mu's head, and the endless wisdom and mysterious light scattered in the mist, submerging Shen Mu's figure.

In this world, the mind has not been taken seriously.

There are two main reasons. On the one hand, its difficulty of cultivation is extremely high, comparable to the soul path.

The path of the soul is illusory and illusory, which discourages countless practitioners. The same is true for the path of the mind.

On the other hand, it does not significantly improve combat effectiveness, as the essence of the Heart Sutra is the control of mental fluctuations such as emotions and desires.

The effect of using the Way of the Heart to fight the enemy is far inferior to that of the Way of Illusion. Even if one has thoroughly comprehended the Way of the Heart, what does it matter if one can easily distort people's minds and personalities?
As long as one fully comprehends one branch of the Way of Illusion, one can achieve this. One can even use illusions to interfere with reality, and the effect is far stronger than simply distorting the mind.

The main function of Xinxiangdao is to improve the state of mind.

The greatest effect of the state of mind is to assist in spiritual practice and to strengthen one's will.

The use of will in this world is relatively superficial, with only the most basic will deterrence and impact, etc. It is an instinctive means of using will, rather than a true secret technique of using will.

In this world, for beings with the same level of willpower, will shocks can be completely ignored.

However, in the Origin Continent, if there are two strong men with the same willpower, one has practiced the secret art of will impact, and the other has not practiced the secret art of will defense, the result of the battle will be one-sided.

After initially comprehending this Sutra of My Mind, Shen Mu slowly opened his eyes.

"This technique's analysis of the two aspects of the self is profound. No matter which branch of the two aspects of the self I master, it can transform my own will."

"Such a powerful method would definitely be regarded as one of the top inheritances if it weren't for the fact that this world doesn't attach importance to the use of willpower."

……

While Shen Mu was practicing in seclusion, there was an endless abyss deep in the Immortal Palace.

The abyss was like a black hole. The surrounding void was twisted. Occasionally, wisps of terrifying air spread out, easily affecting the changes in the surrounding time and space.

This is the power of Hunyuan, a substance absorbed from outside the source world, from the boundless Hunyuan space and time.

hum!
Suddenly, outside the abyss, the secret patterns and principles of cause and effect emerged like a dream.

In a moment, these secret patterns and principles intertwined into the shadow of a skinny old man wearing a Taoist robe.

In the abyss, Emperor Shitian's voice was heard: "Master, why are you interested in coming to me today?"

The voice was low and majestic, and the sound waves directly affected the flow of time around it, as if it came from endless eternity and echoed for endless years.

The divine fortune teller bowed slightly, then said with a smile: "Palace Master, Shen Mu has already joined the Immortal Palace, so he is considered one of us."

"There is no need to keep the information about him secret. Next, we need to consider whether we need to convene a meeting of all the palaces to discuss the matter of guiding the Wuyin Jiumiao Mountain."

The Boundless Jiumiao Mountain is a sacred place for traveling in the Hunyuan Space. It is said to be a small source world transformed from the corpse of a supreme life. It is quite special.

This boundless Immortal Mountain first approached the Holy Realm of True Spirit eight hundred million epochs ago.

The True Spirit Holy Realm is the name of this world, just like Shen Mu’s hometown is the Origin Continent.

As the boundless Immortal Mountain approached, eight hundred million years ago, a great turmoil broke out in the entire True Spirit Holy Realm.

This turmoil lasted for a full 12,960,000 centuries.

The reason why the turmoil ended was that after leaving the Infinite Immortal Mountain for 12,960,000 epochs, they returned from the Hunyuan Space and approached the True Spirit Holy Realm.

At this time, many ancient powerful beings discovered that the True Spirit Holy Realm had a fixed operation in the Hunyuan Space, passing through hundreds of source worlds along the way, and their True Spirit Holy Realm was just one of the many source worlds.

According to the calculation based on the operation path, when the Infinite Nine Wonderful Mountains run one cycle, 12,960,000 epochs will pass in the True Spirit World.

At this point, the ancient powers no longer had the need to fight among themselves, because they could once again enter the boundless Jiumiao Mountain to explore opportunities.

But it was too late. The turmoil had lasted for too long, and the entire Source World had been severely damaged. The will of Heaven became apparent, suppressing all the True Spirit Saints and cutting off the bloodline power of the True Spirit descendants.

The Nine Moons of the Sky were not the corpses of any Great Saints of the True Spirit at all, but just a number of suppressed Great Saints of the True Spirit.

However, this kind of mystery is not something that cultivators below the Supreme Realm can know, so they all mistakenly believe that Tian Zhi Jiu Yue is the corpse of a true spirit.

The terrifying abyss in front of the divine fortune teller was created by Emperor Shitian himself. Its greatest function is to extract the power of the suppressed True Spirit Great Sage to promote the evolution of his own soul and body towards a perfect state.

The name "True Spirit" is a term used in ancient times. Ever since the various source worlds communicated through the Boundless Nine Wonderful Mountains, Emperor Shitian and other powerful men in various palaces are now more accustomed to calling the True Spirit - the natural primordial life.

After Emperor Shitian heard what the divine fortune teller said, endless primordial energy intertwined and condensed into a figure above the abyss.

The moment this figure appeared, his eyes looked in one direction, which was the location of the small world opened up by Shen Mu.

At this time, Shen Mu was still in his own little world, comprehending the principles of the two aspects of self and self, and studying the mysteries of the mind.

When Emperor Shitian's gaze fell on Shen Mu, Shen Mu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes calm and deep.

"I wonder which senior in the Immortal Palace is joking with me?" Shen Mu's voice echoed in the small world.

Shen Mu did not sense any fluctuations, but he had a warning at the spiritual level.

It was just like the weird feeling I had when I first looked into the eyes of Tian Zhi Jiu Yue.

"I am Emperor Shitian, and I have no intention of prying. Please don't blame me, Fellow Daoist Shen."

Emperor Shitian's voice rang out in Shen Mu's small world. There was no obvious fluctuation in the tone, but it contained a special power that made people uncontrollably convinced.

At this time, above the Hunyuan Abyss, Emperor Shitian showed a hint of surprise on his face. "Shen Mu is indeed extraordinary. I observed him with my wisdom eyes, but I was able to detect him."

His wisdom eyes are not ordinary ones. They are the supreme divine eyes refined and suppressed from the power of the true spirit in the depths of the Immortal Palace. Even those in the Supreme Realm can hardly detect his gaze.

The divine fortune teller had a headache on his face: "This person almost broke my heart. The cause and effect burden appeared out of thin air. If he was not suppressed by the original will, I would suspect that he was a powerful being from another world who sneaked in here."

Generally, the supreme level, that is, the ultimate existence of the God King, can achieve the state that even if the world falls, I will not fall.

Moreover, it is normal for such strong people to master the art of breaking the world. It is also common for them to go to other source worlds to comprehend the supreme rules and original avenues of other source worlds.

However, if such life enters other source worlds, it will inevitably be suppressed by the supreme rules and will not be able to exert its full strength.

However, there was no sign of Shen Mu being suppressed by the will of heaven. This was not hidden at all, so the divine fortune teller was quite puzzled.

After listening to the divine fortune teller's complaints, Emperor Shitian smiled and said, "Perhaps this person is not a smuggler, but is the son of calamity bred by the will of heaven."

As he spoke, a mysterious smile appeared on Emperor Shitian's face, as if he knew some secrets that the fortune teller did not know.

The divine fortune teller was stunned after hearing this, and a look of shock appeared on his face: "Is the suppression of the nine true spirits by the will of heaven about to collapse?"

Emperor Shitian shook his head calmly: "I haven't noticed it yet, but it's only a matter of time."

As he spoke, Emperor Shitian sighed: "Every time the Wuyin Jiumiao Mountain approaches the Holy Realm, it will trigger the transformation of the nine true spirits. It is uncertain when they will break free."

Although the nine true spirits were born as primordial beings, they were not much stronger than the current Emperor Shitian when they were first born.

However, these nine true spirits each acquired a kind of nine-wonderful power when the Infinite Nine-wonderful Mountain first approached the Source World.

This power is extremely special, and will become stronger every time the Infinite Jiumiao Mountain gets closer to the Holy Realm.

Sooner or later, these nine true spirits will break free from the suppression of Heaven, and then there will probably be another great turmoil.

As soon as Emperor Shitian finished speaking, he noticed that the Taoist master in front of him had his eyes lowered and was making some kind of hand seal.

"Don't calculate anymore, old fortune teller. If you calculate too much, you may get killed by the backlash."

"This Fellow Daoist Shen has now become one of us, so let's prepare to convene a meeting of all the palaces."

"But before that, you will have to go there in person and talk to Fellow Daoist Shen, asking him to go into the Infinite Immortal Mountain to look for the treasure that can restrain the Nine Wonders."

"Whether he succeeds in the end or not, the Immortal Palace is willing to open up all inheritances to him for him to comprehend at will."

The divine Taoist laughed: "Palace Master, don't worry. Entering the Wuyin Jiumiao Mountain is a great opportunity that countless people seek but cannot obtain. I believe that Fellow Daoist Shen will definitely agree."

"Tsk, that's hard to say." Emperor Shitian shook his head and laughed, pouring cold water on the fortune teller.

If possible, Emperor Shitian, the Taoist master and others would choose to enter the boundless Jiumiao Mountain.

But there is no way. The Boundless Nine Wonderful Mountains reject all the original fluctuations of the Source World. Therefore, any existence that leaves a soul imprint in the origin of the Source World will be rejected and unable to enter the Boundless Nine Wonderful Mountains.

The exceptions are the nine true spirits. Although their strength may not be stronger than the half-Pure Origin life forms that are cultivated after birth, they are indeed natural-born Pure Origin life forms and have never left any soul imprint in the origin of the source world.

Therefore, all the source worlds can only send life forms in the Venerable Realm to the boundless Jiumiao Mountain to obtain opportunities.

However, many powerful people in the Source World did not choose to leave after entering the Infinite Nine Wonderful Mountains. Instead, they practiced in the Infinite Nine Wonderful Mountains or left clones behind.

Therefore, in the boundless Jiumiao Mountain, there are not only those at the Venerable Realm.

There are many old monsters stranded there, whose strength is far beyond the Venerable realm. They may even encounter other natural Hunyuan life forms, and the danger level is extremely high.

……

At this moment, in Shen Mu’s small world, as Indra’s voice fell, the feeling of being watched also disappeared.

Emperor Shitian?
The Palace Master of Yunhai Fairy Palace!
Shen Mu was a little surprised that his joining would attract this person's attention.

According to Gu Yun, most of the supreme beings who joined were only worshippers of the divine fortune teller, and the palace master had not appeared for hundreds of millions of years.

"The source of that sense of crisis turned out to be the Palace Master?"

Shen Mu was not sure how powerful the Palace Master was, but he must be far beyond the supreme realm.

Shen Mu weighed the matter for a moment and then shook his head. If this palace master had been against him, he would probably be dead by now.

There is no use thinking too much. For Shen Mu now, the top priority at this stage is to try to make himself stronger.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, nearly five thousand years had passed.

This was Shen Mu's longest retreat in this world, and of course the gains were gratifying.

On this day, in Shen Mu's small world, the rules of the mind and the way were intertwined to form a field where rules operated. Endless emotional power surged in the field, emitting fluctuations of the way to perfection.

The flowers and plants in the valley have also developed a faint sense of intelligence over the years.

After sensing Shen Mu's breakthrough, they all swayed, emitting waves of joy.

"I finally succeeded. After five thousand years, with the help of the Wanling Treasure Furnace, I finally understood the true nature of the Heart-Appearance Dao!"

Having realized his true nature, Shen Mu naturally saw through the mystery of desire and instinct, and his spiritual realm underwent another transformation.

The pure spiritual glow condensed into robes around Shen Mu, illuminating the entire small world, and a sense of great tranquility and Zen echoed.

Boom!

The surging power of will condensed, and the pressure of will instantly reached the ultimate level of the God King.

Moreover, it skyrocketed from the initial level to an extremely high level in just a moment!

"This is the power of the will of the Ultimate Divine King... It is indeed extraordinary!"

A smile appeared on Shen Mu's face, and then he closed his eyes, feeling the powerful force of will.

With the power of strong will, Shen Mu did not fully understand the two major branches of the illusion way: turning the false into the true and turning the real into the false.

But it can turn reality into illusion, and illusion into reality.

In addition, Shen Mu used his strong willpower to express his malice towards a first-level God King, that is, a Venerable-level cultivator.

Without using any magical powers, one can influence the cause and effect, fate, etc. of the target. As long as a little bit of the power of cause and effect is used, it is even possible to directly curse and kill ordinary venerables.
