Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 81: Chapter 81: Establishing the Path with a Clear Conscience
“`

Destroying the corpse, prayers for the soul’s deliverance, purification…

After dealing with the two bodies stored in his Storage Bag, Wang Chen quietly snuck back into his private chamber.

He released the Mighty Strength Technique, removed his headband and robe, and finally took off the mask on his face.

Wang Chen reverted to his true appearance.

However, the boiling and tumultuous Qi-Blood inside him did not calm down, instead, it became more restless.

He felt as though he hadn’t vented his frustrations thoroughly.

He still wanted to kill!

But reason told Wang Chen that such thoughts were extremely dangerous.

The black-faced cultivator and Spirit Planting Hall disciple he had just killed were only minor characters within the massive Cloud Sun Sect.

Yet he had killed two people in broad daylight, right within the sect’s territory.

It was nothing short of slapping the sect’s face hard.

Perhaps the Outer Sect Main Hall had already received the news by now and dispatched disciples from the Punishment and Defense Halls to track down the murderer.

If Wang Chen dared to cause trouble at this time, it would be like shoving his head under the executioner’s knife!

He paced back and forth in his chamber twice, forcing himself to calm down.

No, that’s not right!

Wang Chen suddenly stopped, his heart jolted with alarm.

Cold sweat soaked his back.

His mindset was very wrong, harboring strong destructive desires!

After pondering, Wang Chen lit a furnace of sandalwood incense.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and started to run the Five Elements Technique to suppress the tumultuous Qi-Blood within him.

The sandalwood had the effect of concentrating the mind and calming the Qi, and with the inherently balanced nature of the Five Elements Technique, the combined effect worked wonders.

In just half a stick of incense’s time, Wang Chen’s emotions truly calmed down.

His mind fully returned to rationality.

Now, Wang Chen had a vague understanding.

Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method!

This Buddhist Body Refinement technique was undoubtedly the root cause behind his nearly uncontrollable reason!

When Wang Chen had purchased the “Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method” from the Four Seas Commerce Association, Shopkeeper Jin had candidly told him that to cultivate this technique to a high tier, it must be complemented with Buddhist Law.

At the time, Wang Chen hadn’t paid much attention to it because what he could afford to buy was only the first three levels of the cultivation technique.

He hadn’t planned to cultivate it to a very profound level.

It seemed harmless enough.

But now, he realized he had been too simplistic!

The Body Refinement effect of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method was outstanding, greatly enhancing Wang Chen’s physique.

Unknowingly, Wang Chen had invested a considerable amount of resources into this technique.

Successfully forging a Golden Body.

However, negative effects followed.

The Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon True Form Chart that he envisioned day and night, along with increasingly strong and vigorous Qi-Blood, was imperceptibly affecting his Divine Soul consciousness.

The Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon is one of the Buddhist Sect’s protector Vajras, with an incomparably strong body, an expert at slaying Demons, eliminating Evil Wraiths with its divine powers.

Ferocious in nature and fierce in hating evil!

Wang Chen had just broken through the third tier of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method, and his Qi-Blood had reached its peak.

The sudden appearance of the three black-faced cultivators, with their brazen behavior and forceful looting, immediately sparked Wang Chen’s fierceness.

Thus leading to the subsequent disguise and roadside killing!

Although Wang Chen didn’t regret at all killing the black-faced cultivator, if he were to do it again, he would make the same choice without hesitation.

But he couldn’t tolerate his will being disturbed by a cultivation technique.

Must he really complement it with Buddhist Law?

Wang Chen reached out and pulled a Buddhist scripture from the bookshelf.

He had purchased this scripture at the Immortal Gathering out of curiosity, picking up two books at the time.

He had never read it before.

After browsing a few pages, he impatiently tossed it aside.

What nonsense!

If he really followed the teachings in this Buddhist scripture, Wang Chen might as well buy a block of tofu and kill himself by smashing into it.

Within the sect, the hierarchy is strict and the scheming is intense.

Outside the gates, Demons roam and Evil Wraiths are everywhere!

As a low-level cultivator who had crossed over from another world, he had always been struggling to survive.

The philosophy of the Buddhist Sect would only lead Wang Chen into a plight with no recovery!

“`

The problem is that Buddhist Law is not an option, so what should he do to solve the troubles brought by the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Right Method?

He certainly can’t just cripple his own martial arts!

In fact, Wang Chen had already thought of a method.

It is said that unblocking is always better than blocking; since the root cause is the overly vigorous Qi-Blood, then he should find all ways to alleviate it.

For example, dual cultivation.

He wonders when the female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect will return to Cloud Mountain City…

Stop!

Wang Chen was startled by this sudden thought of his.

He hastily expelled it from his mind.

Because this is simply not the righteous path.

Indulging desires will only weaken the will and then fall into a vicious cycle!

After some thought, Wang Chen picked up another book.

This “Master Zhang’s Prudent Words” was undoubtedly the most valuable among all the books he had purchased.

It recorded the teachings and guidance given to his descendants by a Purple Mansion Superior in the last ten years of his life.

Although the content of the book does not involve any cultivation techniques.

It encapsulates the wisdom and experience of two hundred years of the Superior’s cultivation practice!

To Wang Chen, it is extremely precious.

The Purple Mansion Superior told his descendants that a cultivator will always encounter various problems during their cultivation process.

Thus, feelings of confusion, hesitation, doubt, loss, and discouragement…

And so on will arise.

These are called “obstacles in cultivation practice.”

To break through these “obstacles in cultivation practice,” one must “examine the heart and establish the Dharma.”

That means to question the heart and establish a belief in the Dharma.

Only then can one fear no ghosts or goblins!

Wang Chen actually had the entire “Master Zhang’s Prudent Words” committed to memory long ago.

But he re-read the part about examining the heart and establishing the Dharma.

Then Wang Chen asked himself introspectively.

What is his belief in cultivation?

Eternal life and immortality?

Wang Chen shook his head, it’s too vague and illusory.

To return to his own world?

This indeed was once Wang Chen’s life goal.

But he is also very clear that this goal is too difficult to achieve and incredibly distant!

Using this as his belief in the Dharma is clearly not firm enough.

Wang Chen closed his eyes.

Memories of the past surged in his mind.

From the black-faced cultivator breaking into his house to him destroying the corpse to eliminate the traces, the whole process appeared like a film.

After a moment, Wang Chen abruptly opened his eyes.

“My heart and my actions are as clear as a bright mirror; all that I do is the epitome of righteousness!”

This sixteen-word mantra thundered in his Sea of Consciousness, instantly cleansing all the bewilderment and hesitation.

He only questioned his conscience, and if his conscience was clear, there was nothing to be ashamed of!

In an instant, Wang Chen felt as if his Divine Soul had undergone a thorough reshaping, clear inside and out like crystal, and the original dark haze clinging to it vanished completely.

Within his consciousness, a small but lively Dharma heart emerged.

As long as he doesn’t forget his original intention, then this Dharma heart will become stronger and stronger in the days to come.

This was the belief that Wang Chen wanted and needed!

At that moment, Wang Chen had a hint of enlightenment.

From then on, the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Right Method would no longer trouble him.

Nor could it affect or shake his will anymore!

At the thought.

A chain wrapped around the phantom of a Heavenly Dragon deep within Wang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness.

He rose to his full height, his dark eyes shining with radiant light.

His will was never as firm and strong as it was at this moment!
