Dao of the Bizarre Immortal-Chapter 443 - Cultivating the "Truth"
Chapter 443 - Cultivating the "Truth"
Li Huowang looked at the paper in his hands and recalled everything regarding the cultivation method. Hong Zhong's memories told him that this method was the correct one.
However, those memories embedded in Li Huowang's mind were fake. Could they be trusted? What if there were side effects?
Li Huowang hesitated before placing the paper down. It seems that I need to find another Strayed One to verify the method.
Previously, he'd tested the method for getting rid of the murderous aura entering someone’s body before using it on Bai Lingmiao. Likewise, Li Huowang needed a test subject for the cultivation method. This was the simplest and most straightforward method to test it.
“Who should I use?” Li Huowang wondered.
He looked through his memories and remembered Bei Feng. Bei Feng was also a Strayed One and had been looking for the cultivation method too.
As a Sitting Oblivion Dao, Bei Feng could cultivate "Lies" and get rid of the hallucination, but Li Huowang was certain that she would still be drawn to a cultivation method that could allow her to use her primordial breath.
With a plan in mind, Li Huowang didn’t hesitate. He left the house, leaving the old woman and her sister-in-law in the room as they continued to play mahjong.
Several days later, Li Huowang found Bei Feng in a brothel. She was soaking in a hot tub filled with metals.
Bei Feng smiled as she lifted her left leg out of the water, revealing her fair skin.
“Oh, it’s Hong Zhong. It’s my honor to have such an esteemed guest,” she said.
“Do you want the cultivation method to cultivate the ‘Truth’?” Li Huowang asked, showing her the sheet of paper with the cultivation method.
Bei Feng’s eyes lit up, and she walked out of the hot tub. Water dripped down her body as she walked towards Li Huowang.
Bei Feng remarked, “I knew you had it. You even lied to me and said you didn’t! You are so bad~”
Now that Bei Feng had taken over the body of the best prostitute in the brothel, her tone became coquettish and seductive.
She extended her arms towards Li Huowang, but she was puzzled by Li Huowang's actions. “Why are you so good? Do you want to lie to me again? I won’t get tricked by you again.”
“Then don’t take it.”
Li Huowang put the scroll away and walked out.
“Ai! Wait! I didn’t say I don’t want it.” Bei Feng extended her manicured hands and took it. “Fine. I’m willing to get tricked by you if it's for the sake of this cultivation method.”
Her body was still wet when she put on a see-through shawl, sat down on the bed covered in red sheets, and started cultivating.
Li Huowang frowned and looked at her, as if waiting for something to happen.
Before long, several things were levitating around Bei Feng. One of the pink pillows circled around Bei Feng before it slowly transformed into a green brick.
Bei Feng opened her eyes in shock. “Hong Zhong! This is the real deal!”
But there was no one else there. Li Huowang was gone. Bei Feng was stunned.
Nevertheless, she ran out of the window with the scroll in her hand, smiling cheekily.
One month later, Bei Feng had already changed her body to that of an old man.
The old man was sitting in a cave and looked like an Immortal as he looked at the youth in front of him.
He said, “My disciple, since you are a Strayed One, I can’t teach you much. It’s now time for me to teach you the final technique, the method to cultivate ‘Truth’! Once you’ve finished cultivating it, not only will you be able to command the heavens and earth but also remove those hallucination completely!”
The youth felt excited. He kept kowtowing and kneeling on the ground in front of the old man.
The old man was like a father to the youth. He'd save the youth from evil people and even taught the youth such an incredible technique!
Bei Feng squinted as she looked at the Strayed One in front of her. Hmph! Hong Zhong, do you think I’m an idiot that would just do what I'm told? You told me to try, so you thought I would try it myself? Of course, I will test it on another Strayed One instead. I don’t know if you managed to cultivate it since you are so rash, but that’s your issue, not mine, hehehe~
As the youth inhaled, the space around him twisted like it was going to be sucked into his body.
Everything in the cave started to change. The scene changed rapidly, going from a cave to a bedroom before changing to a prison.
When the youth started sinking into the ground, he opened his eyes and looked around him in astonishment. “Master! This method is useful!”
“Don’t stop! Keep cultivating!” said the old man.
Li Huowang was currently invisible as he watched on from behind Bei Feng. He was clenching his fist hard.
He knew what kind of person Bei Feng was. That was why he'd set the trap. He only needed someone to test the method, and he didn’t care who it was.
Li Huowang looked at the youth for a very long time until the moment he succeeded.
After verifying that everything was alright with the youth, Li Huowang slowly left the cave. He looked like he was in a horrible state. Li Sui’s black tentacles covered his veins, extending all over his body. Li Huowang could see the tentacles wriggling and pushing outwards from beneath his skin.
He found a quiet place in the forest and sat down cross-legged. Then he closed his eyes and hands and started cultivating according to the method recorded on the paper.
Li Huowang turned his sight inwards into his body to find the formless primordial breath.
It was not an easy thing to do, especially since he was trying to cultivate the "Truth." It was a cultivation method that cultivated a concept.
Nevertheless, he was not greedy. His initial goal was to suppress the hallucination.
According to the cultivation method, as long as he used his inner sight to cover the primordial breath, he could stop the hallucination from occurring again.
Li Huowang cultivated for three nights straight before he took a deep breath. His voice was already shaking by then.
He said, “Li Sui. Come out. Let me try.”
Tentacles spilled forth from his mouth before they pooled together into a ball. Two curious eyes peeked at Li Huowang.
Li Huowang took a deep breath and clenched his fist tighter. He waited. He kept waiting and nothing happened. Fifteen minutes passed, and he was not dragged into the hallucination!
Li Huowang looked at the illusion at his side to share the good news. “Senior Zhuge! This thing is real! It’s useful! And I succeeded in using it!”
The illusion replied, “This is good. At the very least you don’t have to eat the Black Taisui anymore. You are no longer at risk of losing your body.”
“With this cultivation method, I can now suppress my hallucination and even control when it appears!”
Li Huowang revealed a part of the primordial breath that was covered in his inner sight, and everything shifted around him.
When he woke up, he found himself tied to a cold machine, and his temples were pulsing. He looked around and saw there were numerous people around him, including his mother. Li Huowang looked around in confusion, and everyone clapped.
Sun Xiaoqin was so happy that tears flowed out as she almost kneeled to one of the doctors, but the doctor stopped her.
The doctor said, “Madam Sun, no need to be so agitated. Since electroconvulsive therapy can wake your son up, he has a chance to recover as long as he eats his medicine and undergoes therapy at the same time.”
Li Huowang looked around and thought to himself. If the hallucination was caused by the primordial breath leaking out inside of me, that means this is fake...
Sun Xiaoqin hugged her son tightly and kept his head in her embrace.
She finally saw a chance for her son to recover. This was more important than anything else!
Li Huowang looked around as he basked in the warmth of his mother's embrace. He looked at the doctors and nurses around him, and his gaze became resolute.
“Mom, don’t worry. I’m not stuck in the hallucination anymore. I’m fine. A Strayed One’s body contains the primordial breath, which is part of the Heavenly Dao. I can use it now! Even if this place is fake, I will turn everyone here into reality one day!”
