Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman-Chapter 680 - 369: The True Self Never Lies!_2

"Give the order, Sect Master!"

"We surely can’t let the Dharma Vein of the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect come to an end, can we?"

"Outside are all Evil Spirits and Sons of Evil Gods; this is our last resort!"

"..."

Feeling the newfound authority and influence he had never possessed before, the new Sect Master scanned the high-tier cultivators around him who were not from his sect. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Once he confirmed that these fellows had also resigned themselves to their fate,

he sighed, prostrated himself directly in front of Su Ping’s Dharma Aspect, and used Divine Thought to release the command for everyone to let down their guard, accept the contract, and then enter the vortex on all available flying artifacts.

The new Sect Master planned to offer the Five Elements Spirit Pearl as a gift to this mysterious presence before him.

But he suddenly felt a void in his heart, realizing that he had lost connection with the Five Elements Spirit Pearl.

The corner of his mouth twitched.

At this moment, he didn’t need to think twice about who could have done this.

Without further thought, the new Sect Master immediately sent out the Inheritance Jade Scroll that accompanied the Five Elements Spirit Pearl.

To facilitate the process for the other party to more easily assimilate the Five Elements Spirit Pearl for their own use.

At this moment, the new Sect Master couldn’t help but reminisce about the time he had just taken over as Sect Master.

Back then, he was full of vigor and vitality.

He never imagined that he would fall to such a state.

And he had no idea what the future would hold.

While the new Sect Master had his thoughts, he still performed his duty as the leader of a sect.

He forcefully ordered the elders and direct disciples around him to take to the sky and block the Evil Spirits of various sizes emerging from the spatial rifts.

He himself also cast spells to speed up the evacuation of the survivors in the Underground Palace.

With the help of Returning to Void Great Powers,

and with large moving tools such as Immortal Boats,

the evacuation of hundreds of thousands was but a matter of moments.

During this time, the pursuit of the Sons of Evil Gods, which the high-tier cultivators were most worried about, didn’t occur.

It wasn’t that they hadn’t noticed these little moves.

It’s just that the methods previously displayed by Su Ping’s Primordial Spirit Avatar were too swift and fierce,

which startled them uniformly and instinctively made them wary.

Amidst this lull, the three smiling heads of the Supreme Golden Body of the Heavenly Tathagata appeared in the sky.

Uttering Buddhist Scriptures that were esoteric and difficult to interpret,

they caused the Sons of Evil Gods around them to suddenly stall in their movements,

because they heard from the Heavenly Tathagata’s mouth the promise of another powerful way of life beyond strengthening themselves.

This guy actually found the location where the Supreme Mother Goddess had opened her mouth.

Though the plan sounded bold and unreliable,

compared to the plan of strengthening themselves,

the Sons of Evil Gods all knew their own affairs well,

and understood that this plan was even more unreliable.

Some top-ranked Sons of Evil Gods even guessed there were additional requirements,

but at that moment, no one spoke out, as each one harbored their own schemes.

There were even Sons of Evil Gods ranked in the top ten who, after communicating with the Heavenly Tathagata through Divine Thought, withdrew contentedly to help maintain order and actively spread the message,

letting more Sons of Evil Gods know that their kind had found the site where the Mother Goddess had opened her mouth.

Although they knew survival even if they made it there was unlikely,

what if there was a way to escape at that time?

With this thought in mind,

the Sons of Evil Gods who received the message and still wished to live all began to converge on the gathering points controlled by powerful Sons of Evil Gods scattered throughout the Dark Void.

Su Ping took away the Five Elements Spirit Pearl and crammed all the cultivators and mortals in the grotto into the world within the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map.

Su Ping, with Returning to Void Cultivation, was no longer afraid of the mischief of those with Divinity Transformation cultivation; the Netherworld Blood Lock could suppress any abnormal behavior within seconds.

As a result, those with Divinity Transformation and below were faring slightly better.

Though forced to be a tool, at least they still had their own space to move about.

But the Sect Masters and elders with Returning to Void Cultivation

were sealed within the stars of the Array Map, existing unstably between illusion and reality,

becoming tools to accelerate the stabilization of the stars.

To ensure that tools could work at ease,

Su Ping gave them the most important glimmer of hope.

Though the work for cultivators below Divinity Transformation was low-paying, at least their cultivation wouldn’t regress.

And even though the workload was heavy and cumbersome,

it wasn’t an approach of draining them completely dry; there was time for them to recover and even support from medicines,

allowing them to see that the Great Power didn’t really intend to use them until death.

Even cultivators below the level of Golden Core, after laboring here for a hundred years, should see their cultivation not decrease but increase thanks to the dense spiritual energy.

This also allows them, after contributing a hundred years of their youth to the perfection of the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map, to become official workers with more generous rewards through the points earned via labor, or to leave this world and go to other small worlds with greater freedom.

Even those Great Powers at the Returning to Void stage received the same promise.

Just stabilize the stars for the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map for a hundred years,

and they will regain their freedom.

The high-tier cultivators could feel the confidence in the other party’s promise, brimming with disdain for lying.

This reminded them of the Old Sect Master of the Supreme Self-Respect Sect mentioned in the records.

That great entity also seemed to be a Great Power who never lied.

The person before them, capable of learning his astounding abilities,

even seemed to exceed the written records in many ways.

Could he also be one of the same kind of Great Power who values honesty and never lies?

The sealed high-tier cultivators could only console themselves in this way.

After all, they couldn’t really self-destruct their Primordial Spirits and become nothing, right?

Moreover, what somewhat comforted these high-tier cultivators was

seeing the treatment of their own disciples and followers.

They all breathed a sigh of relief, at least they could survive.

Their own Dharma Vein would not have to be cut off by their own hand.

And it must be said, this world of the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map

surprised them at every turn.

They faintly felt that perhaps these differences from the Secret Realm Cave Heaven were the key to the other party’s Harmonization.

If they... could truly gain their freedom, would saying they once helped a Harmonization Immortal perfect his small world inside his body

make all the humiliation acceptable and even a source of pride?

The elders of the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect volunteered their Divine Skills and secret techniques that they had researched.

The old woman and the female cultivators, after sensing Su Ping’s Divine Thought sweep over,

transmitted the information they knew about the Supreme Self-Respect Sect without waiting for Su Ping to inquire.

Su Ping couldn’t help but encourage them for being so clever and sensible.

As for freedom, that was not possible, they had agreed to be sealed up and help stabilize the stars for a hundred years, so it would be a hundred years.

Su Ping always kept his word, unless it was impossible.

After obtaining what he wanted, Su Ping collected the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map and left the crumbling Cave Heaven.

The moment he left, the already unsustainable Cave Heaven began to collapse immediately after losing the last balancing force.

Many large and small chunks of land and buildings fled from the space, crashing onto the main peak’s ground.

At that moment, the sky above the main peak of the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Sect had already turned into a Dark Void.

The ground below had long transformed into a barren Evil Domain.

Su Ping ignored the countless malevolent gazes in the Dark Void.

He communicated with the Heavenly Tathagata Supreme Golden Body.

"Is this how you coax your kind?"

"And they seem to believe it, too?"

"Amitabha."

"The Tathagata cultivates the Great Freedom Bright Light Curse and never lies."

The Heavenly Tathagata replied indifferently.

Su Ping was slightly shocked, realizing that it indeed hadn’t lied.

It genuinely had the ability to find the location where the Mother Goddess awoke and spoke, a prerequisite for their chance to escape to the heavens.

It had just skillfully employed the techniques of neither telling lies nor telling the whole truth.

And those children of the Evil God, the smart ones, could guess as much.

There must even be top-ranked ones who had similar preparations, only lacking this prerequisite of location.

Therefore, if the Heavenly Tathagata encountered an attack, wouldn’t those children of the Evil God jump out to help eliminate the threat?

But then, summoning so many children of the Evil God, adding so many variables, was that also part of the plan?

Su Ping posed the question.

The Heavenly Tathagata brought his six hands together and smiled faintly, nodding in affirmation:

"Yes, everything is within the Tathagata’s plans."

Upon receiving the acknowledgment, Su Ping no longer dwelled on it and moved swiftly to the Inheritance Cave Heaven that the old woman had provided.

They had fled in such a hurry that many inheritances couldn’t be brought along.

When Su Ping arrived, the Cave Heaven had already collapsed.

Fortunately, the few items related to the Supreme Self-Respect Sect were made of special materials, and they still survived among the ruins.

Ensuring that Su Ping had not made the trip in vain.
