Chapter 68: Three kinds of Hunyuan Methods, the three methods of Zhan Dao are incomplete, the fourth method of Zhan Dao, the grudges are clear

With the cleansing of the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun's own stubborn illness disappeared overnight. After all his accumulated strength was released, he stood up again after the breakthrough. It was normal for his cultivation to reach a further level.

His cultivation level is already half-step to Hunyuan, and even if it is improved to the peak of half-step to Hunyuan, he is only one step away from achieving the Hunyuan realm.

But it was this step that killed many monks.

The change in his cultivation awakened Hongjun, who was in the silence of the endless avenue. His mind settled and he felt his self-improvement: "Half a step to the peak of Hunyuan, one step away is the Hunyuan realm. Heavenly Dao, how can I break through this step?"

"I can grant you an origin, so that you can refine it and then break through the Hunyuan realm. You can also try to comprehend the long river of the Great Dao that I have condensed, and use your endless feelings to find a way to break through the Hunyuan realm. Of course, you can also try the three methods of slashing the Dao taught by Emperor Qing, relying on the unity of the three incarnations slashed out, and the endless accumulation brought by the incarnations to help yourself break through the bottleneck!"

"It's up to you to decide which of these three options you want to choose!"

The Heavenly Dao did not rely on its own strength to force Hongjun to break through. Instead, it gave Hongjun a choice, which filled him with contemplation.

Hongjun asked: "Are there any differences in the Hunyuan realms achieved by the three breakthrough methods?"

"Of course! With my origin, breaking through to the Hunyuan realm can be considered as a breakthrough with the help of external forces. The Hunyuan realm I achieved is much weaker, and I will be more restricted by it."

"Comprehend the long river of the Great Dao that I have condensed, and create a method to break through the Primordial Realm from it. This will definitely make the Primordial Realm you break through stronger. But this method is also the most difficult."

"Breaking through with the Zhan Dao method created by Emperor Qing is far more powerful than the first method. However, breaking through with the method created by Emperor Qing means that I owe Emperor Qing a favor. After all, this is a favor for breaking through the Primordial Realm, and it is not so easy to repay."

All three methods of breaking through the Primordial Chaos were placed before Hongjun. For a moment, Hongjun really had a hard time choosing.

Hongjun instinctively gave up the first option of using the Heavenly Dao to break through. Although he had chosen the Heavenly Dao and was loyal to it, he was naturally unwilling to do so because it was related to his own strength in the Primordial Realm.

And creating one's own method of becoming a Taoist is extremely difficult. On the other hand, practicing the method created by Emperor Qing, although it is a little unpleasant in the heart, it is ultimately a path to becoming a Taoist.

Hongjun pondered for a long time, and with a thought, he used the three methods of cutting, and the three incarnations he cut out appeared before him.

Three incarnations appeared and looked at Hongjun: "We are here to see the deity!"

Hongjun looked at his incarnation, which had become extremely pure due to the baptism of the infinite avenue and merit. Moreover, the innate things that carried them were all devoured, replenishing the incarnation's footing and qualifications: "In your current state, can you merge and return to the same state?"

"Master, when you killed us back then, you were all based on the innate pure energy. And over the years, we have refined the origin of the innate pure energy, replenished our own origin, improved our foundation and footing. We have brought our own cultivation to the extreme and made ourselves extremely pure. So we can merge with each other, and then return to the master's body, becoming the nourishment for the master's breakthrough."

"Okay, then you two can blend in!"

Without even a second thought, Hongjun decided to merge his three incarnations to become the nourishment for his breakthrough. The original purpose of these incarnations was to serve as the nourishment for his breakthrough. For this reason, Hongjun showed no mercy and used the Three Ways of Slashing to help his incarnations merge.

Hongjun's three avatars of the Way of Slashing all cooperated extremely well and were willing to sacrifice themselves. Then the three of them turned into a wisp of pure energy, interweaving with each other, just like the interpretation of the three talents of heaven, earth and man, and then returned to chaos.

The three incarnations merged into one, forming a pure and vast river of pure air. It carried the cultivation and accumulation of the three incarnations of Hongjun. This cultivation and accumulation perfectly matched Hongjun.

As Hongjun grabbed, the long river instantly watered his body and his origin.

Then his origin transformed, and his cultivation level slowly improved, allowing Hongjun to begin his final breakthrough: "Time is all things, the Great Dao returns to one, help me achieve the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos..."

The avenue that Hongjun cultivated was the avenue of time. The long river of cultivation condensed by the three incarnations contained the endless rolling avenue of time. It watered Hongjun's origin and also watered his cultivation. For a time, everything about Hongjun was improving, his origin was also transforming, and his understanding of the avenue of time was now one step further. The rolling spiritual energy also swept over and submerged Hongjun, as if helping him to achieve enlightenment.

Billions of years passed like this, and in the vast blessed land of Yujing Mountain, endless spiritual energy condensed into a long river.

The area surrounded by the river is where Hongjun, who is preparing to break through the realm of Hunyuan, is.

But with a buzzing sound and a bang, the countless condensed spiritual energy exploded and shattered.

“Ahem…” Even though Hongjun was coughing up blood, his eyes were filled with danger and murderous intent: “Failed. There is something wrong with the three methods of killing. Ah…”

"Is there a flaw?" The ruthless voice of Heavenly Dao descended again. He was also puzzled: "I also know the Three Ways of Slashing Dao created by Emperor Qing. This method is mysterious and unparalleled, and is definitely a good way to achieve enlightenment. And Emperor Qing was able to create this method, even I, the Heavenly Dao, can't help but admire his wisdom."

"Although he concealed some cultivation matters when he spread the Three Dao Methods of Slashing, the ancestors of your Dao League have been meditating for many years and have found those matters. They know that the innate things chosen to carry the incarnation must fit each other, otherwise it will be difficult to integrate in the future."

"You know to find the innate things that match yourself, or the great way you cultivate, otherwise it will be difficult to integrate with yourself in the future. Haven't you figured out all these things long ago and avoided them?"

Hongjun coughed up blood, covered his chest, and felt the cracks in his origin: "Yes! In order to solve the many problems of the Three Ways of Slashing, I used the innate pure energy as the carrier of my incarnation, and imprinted my understanding of the Great Way of Time into my incarnation, making my incarnation extremely pure and in tune with me."

“When I was incarnating in the form of Xiang Rong, I also continued to improve. But at the last step of breaking through the Great Dao Hun Yuan, I lacked stamina and failed to break through. The reason for the failure of the breakthrough was that my incarnation of the Dao of Slashing was too pure.”

"It is so pure that it is spotless, so pure that it fits me perfectly, so pure that it can only improve my cultivation, so pure that it can only strengthen my own origin... But besides being pure, it is difficult to trigger the transformation of my origin and the transformation of my cultivation."

"It's just like my Slash Dao incarnation, which can make my accumulation and my foundation infinitely stronger. It can make my cultivation stronger in quantity, but it only lacks that hint of qualitative change. After all, it is difficult for me to change in quantity and cause qualitative change."

"I am sure that among the three methods of the Way of Slashing, there must be a fourth method hidden. And this fourth method is the method of qualitative change and sublimation. It will make my cultivation qualitatively change and transform, and then achieve the method of the Great Dao Hunyuan."

“This…” Even Tian Dao fell silent at this moment. He had never expected that there would be such a hidden danger in the three methods of Zhan Dao created by Di Qing. “Perhaps Di Qing’s wisdom is limited. He did not expect that there is a flaw in the three methods of Zhan Dao, and then he did not create the fourth method. Perhaps Di Qing created it, but concealed it.”

Hongjun was filled with hatred, clenched his fists, and had many murderous intentions: "No matter whether Emperor Qing is secret or not, or whether he has not created it. I failed to break through because of the three methods of the way of cutting, and even suffered from the breakthrough, which damaged my origin. With such a great hatred, I, I..."

“If Emperor Qing had not created it, it can only be said that Emperor Qing lacked knowledge and wisdom, and did not expect the difficulty of breaking through the Hunyuan realm. But if Emperor Qing created it, but deliberately concealed it. Then Emperor Qing’s scheming and scheming are truly terrifying. Even I, the Heavenly Dao, can’t help but become more wary of him.” The Heavenly Dao pondered the many changes and what had happened to Emperor Qing over the years, and became more and more wary of him.

Hongjun calmed down his emotions and the backlash he had suffered: "Humph...Even if Di Qing created the fourth method of the Way of Slashing, he didn't choose to pass it on to others because of his own race and didn't want other cultivators to become too powerful. I can understand that."

"And I deserved the backlash because I didn't create a way to become a Taoist myself, and then practiced the way he created. But this time, I suffered a heavy blow because of the method created by Di Qing. And after the battle between Taoism and Demons ended, Di Qing took away the spiritual treasures of many ancestors of my Taoist Alliance. It is enough to repay the favor of Di Qing for passing on the law to the Taoist Alliance! From now on, Di Qing, I and the Wu Clan are even."

"Are we even now? You are very clear about gratitude and grudges! However, the heavy damage you suffered and the revenge for the loss of the inheritance of many ancestors of the Taoist Alliance are only offset by the kindness of Emperor Qing who taught you the Dharma. Isn't the kindness of Emperor Qing who taught you the Dharma too precious?" Tiandao asked back.

"Your heaven is ruthless, but as a cultivator, I, Hongjun, naturally have seven emotions and six desires, and naturally know about grudges and hatred. Di Qing spread the three methods of beheading, regardless of whether the fourth method is hidden. In the end, it has greatly increased the cultivation of me and many ancestors of the Dao League."

"And I am the last ancestor of the Dao League, so I should shoulder the grievances of all the ancestors. Now, on behalf of all the fallen ancestors of the Dao League, I will repay the favors I once owed."

"Now that the favor has been repaid, I will have no scruples about what I do in the future."
