Chapter 95 Morality
This was Guang Chengzi's second major gain: he stole Shen Ni's position, impersonated him, and deceived him about his Hunyuan Dao Fruit, thus enabling him to continuously steal Shen Ni's Hunyuan power.
Undoubtedly, Shen Ni is dead. It's just a pity that even the vitality of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is incredibly strong, let alone a Hunyuan Great God like Shenmi. He is even stronger than a cockroach, the king of cockroaches. Even if he wanted to die, it wouldn't be so easy for him.
Moreover, with the energy of the ferocious beast clan as a source of replenishment, it is likely that unless the Dao Ancestor Hongjun is willing to take action, only the former Demon Ancestor Luo, now the Primordial Heavenly Demon, can completely kill this ferocious beast king by using the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation again.
However, no matter how mysterious he is, he was once the Emperor of the Underworld, and naturally he has great fortune, great merit, and great destiny to protect him. Killing him will surely bring disaster.
So even if someone could kill him, he wouldn't want to do it, much less get his hands dirty.
So after much deliberation, these six disciples of the sage came up with an extremely ingenious and brilliant idea.
That is to keep Shen Ni alive, but to ensure that Shen Ni has no chance of resurrection, and to let him fall into eternal damnation with no hope of ever returning!
The key to this is Guang Chengzi.
Although Shenni cannot erase his fundamental will, it is difficult for him to control his own Hunyuan Dao Fruit when most of his power has dissipated into nothingness.
Therefore, this Primordial Dao Fruit can only move by instinct. And Shen Ni's greatest instinct is nothing other than resurrection, and to resurrect in his former form!
Therefore, after learning that Guang Chengzi was a divine body acquired later, the remnant soul of Shen Ni was so overjoyed. It was because only a divine body could bear his complete soul, thereby giving rise to his complete will, and finally becoming the complete Shen Ni, and even restoring the glory of the former Yin Emperor!
Therefore, driven by instinct, the remaining Hunyuan Dao Fruit of Shenni would definitely favor Guangchengzi, even abandoning other resurrected bodies and instead nurturing Guangchengzi completely, and even spontaneously sending power into his body, all to make Shenni resurrect faster.
All of this is because Guang Chengzi is a post-natal deity.
Compared to innate deities, acquired deities are extremely rare, or even virtually impossible to exist.
After all, a saint represents the Great Luo, an existence nurtured by the Great Dao. A saint who has not been nurtured by the Great Dao is like a lotus flower growing in the sky when there is no soil or water—it is inconceivable.
Only under the miracle of the Twenty-Four Grade Creation Lotus could such an existence be born.
Therefore, the idea of the six disciples of the sage was to use Guang Chengzi's acquired divine body to steal all the resurrection essence of Shen Ni and turn it into resources for Guang Chengzi's cultivation!
Guang Chengzi has only just been resurrected, yet he already feels an immense amount of memories flowing through his mind, seemingly wanting to be released, but fearing that Guang Chengzi might not be able to accept it, so it is slowly revealing itself.
These memories are Shen Ni's cultivation memories over the years, including his time as the Yin Emperor.
Unlike the fundamental principle that the Great Dao cannot be defiled, these memories of cultivation are the wisdom of the divine reversal. Comprehending these memories will greatly benefit Guang Chengzi, and will also allow him to discover things that he had never noticed before.
Because this is from Shen Ni's perspective, the same world can appear in different colors and forms in the eyes of different people. The primordial world that Shen Ni knows is completely different from the primordial world that Guang Chengzi knows.
"I see—I see—"
Guang Chengzi let out a long sigh, his mind no longer filled with confusion. Without hesitation, he took a step forward, the step he had longed to take but dared not.
Taiyi Golden Immortal!
As he took this step, Guang Chengzi's aura instantly surged, and countless illusory figures descended from the sky, clearly calling upon Guang Chengzi to become their master, as if the Daos that had not yet found their rulers were calling upon him.
Choose me!
Choose me!
Choose me!
One after another, the Great Roads called out, and that deep sense of intimacy flowed into Guang Chengzi's heart. It seemed that as long as he stretched out his hand, all the Great Roads would rush into his body, but Guang Chengzi did not do so.
He is not the Heavenly Dao, he doesn't have the ability to rule over all paths. It's best for a child to drink milk before he grows up, and to learn to crawl before he learns to run.
You can't even crawl, and you want to run? Aren't you afraid of falling to your death?
At this moment, Guang Chengzi had no doubts. With the accumulation of so much wisdom, he had already decided which path to choose. Having seen the entire prehistoric world, he had seen everything. His Dao heart was as clean and clear as a mirror that had been wiped clean, reflecting his truest self.
With Guang Chengzi's call, countless illusory images of the Great Dao vanished into thin air to find their other masters. Only one Great Dao remained in place, and this Dao was called: Morality.
Morality is one of the five virtues, and it is also the most precious one. Unlike blessings, which can be converted through good fortune, merits, which are bestowed by Heaven, hidden virtues, which can be accumulated through good deeds, and sacred virtues, which are provided by the race, morality can only be obtained through education.
Once upon a time, Guang Chengzi also deliberately gave alms to all living beings and preached countless times in order to obtain the moral energy of black and white, but unfortunately he gained very little.
In the end, he even delved into the path of mental cultivation, a path more cruel than the demonic path, completely regarding so-called education as nothing more than mud under his feet.
It wasn't until he was enlightened by Jieyin and Zhunti that he understood that morality is not something that can be deceived, and that only by sincerely teaching and enlightening all beings can one obtain true morality.
From then on, Guang Chengzi began to understand his own heart, but he could never believe that someone who had once discarded morality like trash could actually like morality by nature.
Only after he had seen the entire primordial world did he finally face himself squarely. He didn't even need the Taiyi Deduction Method to know which Great Dao he truly loved.
Morality is also a path without a master. Now that a deity has entered into it, it was overjoyed and unhesitatingly revealed most of the mysteries of morality, wanting this divine ruler to guide it.
If other Taiyi Golden Immortals saw this, they would surely be moved to tears. How come they have to cultivate diligently and try their best to please the Great Dao in order to gain its favor, but the Great Dao ignores them and even when it does, it is very reserved and noble?
When it came to Guang Chengzi, it was Da Dao who took the initiative to be friendly, as if he was afraid that the other party would abandon him. It's really infuriating to compare yourself to others!
