Chapter 87: Re-Choosing His Enlightenment Direction
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhou Yun’s mind was racing! More and more solutions were being denied by him! But the next moment, more and more solutions appeared!
After entering the state of enlightenment, Zhou Yun was like a computer. Countless resources and solutions could be connected to big data, and a steady stream of solutions flashed for him to choose from!
“No! These solutions can indeed solve the problem of my cultivation deviation and breaking through to the mid-stage foundation establishment, but they’re not perfect. It can’t greatly increase my strength!” Zhou Yun became anxious!
Now, every second he thought about it, his deviation would become more serious!
However, if he couldn’t find a way to become stronger, he wouldn’t be able to escape from the heretic cultivator’s control in the end!
“No! Just this method alone is not enough! I need to change the direction of my enlightenment! Perhaps the direction of my enlightenment was wrong from the beginning!” Zhou Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration. This time, he had asked the system to help him achieve enlightenment. The request was to solve the problem of deviation and to break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment, which would greatly improve his strength!
“Perhaps I don’t need to solve the problem of deviation. I can also make use of it!” Zhou Yun discovered that in every method of enlightenment, it was either to resolve the deviation first before breaking through or to resolve the deviation after breaking through!
However, of these two methods, the former could solve the problem of the body, but it wouldn’t increase the strength by much. The latter could greatly increase one’s strength, but because the deviation was resolved too late, it led to damage to the foundation! In the future, it would be difficult to achieve the Great Path of immortal cultivation!
But just a moment ago, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through Zhou Yun’s mind!
Since he couldn’t have both, why couldn’t he use the injury of deviation to make it a powerful assistant for his breakthrough?
“That’s right. It’s better to channel than to block. Moreover, I’m in a state of enlightenment now. Since I can’t have both, I’ll include deviation as one of the conditions for a breakthrough!” Zhou Yun gave up on the idea of treating his deviation. He quickly asked the system in his mind.
“System, change the direction of enlightenment. The direction of enlightenment has changed from solving the problem of deviation to using deviation to break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment and improve my cultivation!” Zhou Yun quickly said in his mind!
“Alright, most handsome master. I’ll begin your enlightenment now!” The system’s sweet voice replied.
In the next moment, the peaceful light in Zhou Yun’s eyes suddenly changed. In an instant, several thoughts flashed through Zhou Yun’s mind.
This time, Zhou Yun’s tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed. He had found a way to perfectly break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment and greatly increase his strength during his deviation!
“It’s just as I thought! This time, I will definitely succeed! Heretic cultivator, wait for me to take your head!” Zhou Yun closed his eyes. This time, he completely immersed his mind in his body! His divine sense kept scanning the places on his body that were injured!
“The reason for the deviation is because I have too much fire spiritual energy. The number of meridians in my body is not enough, which caused the fire spiritual energy to abuse my body and damage it!
“However, since I don’t have enough meridians, and the fire spiritual energy is so abundant that it is wreaking havoc in my body, why can’t I treat my body like my meridians and become a vessel for the fire spiritual energy?
“By then, not only will I be able to resolve the effects of the deviation, but I’ll also be able to perfectly absorb a large amount of spiritual energy from the Hunyuan Blazing Flame Pill and perfectly break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment!” Zhou Yun kept muttering to himself.
However, if anyone were to hear Zhou Yun’s words, they would definitely think that he had gone crazy!
Deviation meant that all the spiritual energy in the body was completely out of control!
This kind of spiritual energy was completely harmful!
At this time, he actually wanted to let his body accommodate this spiritual energy, which was no different from a fantasy!
Even if they were cultivators, they were just flesh and blood. Not to mention that ordinary cultivators could use spirit power because of the meridians in their bodies, which could circulate spirit power.
It was fine if the spiritual energy was on the surface of the body, but if the spiritual energy entered the flesh and blood, it would only be extremely painful. Then, the spiritual energy would spiritualize the flesh and blood, turning them into stiff pieces of meat!
Originally, Zhou Yun was already suffering from deviation, and his entire body was filled with fire spiritual energy. Half of his flesh and blood had been burnt, so how could he have absorbed so much spiritual energy? There was no flesh at all! Furthermore, his flesh and blood could not contain his spiritual energy!
Even Ling Qingyun, one of the five sect leaders, would have to call Zhou Yun a monster if he were to witness his actions.
However, Zhou Yun’s eyes were shining with a calm light.
He wasn’t anxious at all about his body collapsing inch by inch and going into deviation. In fact, he was even a little excited!
“The first step is to force the excess fire spiritual energy onto the already burnt flesh!” Zhou Yun gritted his teeth and forcefully squeezed out the spiritual energy that had filled his meridians, allowing the spiritual energy to channel the brutal fire spiritual energy in his body to the charred parts of his body!
“The second part is to circulate the Spiritual Qi Mantra! It’s time for my original Spiritual Qi Mantra to evolve once more!” When Zhou Yun was at the perfect foundation establishment, he had already modified the Spiritual Qi Mantra to fit his body perfectly. He was able to continue cultivating even without his consciousness.
It was also because of this that Zhou Yun was able to train his body to the limit so quickly, and in just two months, he was able to break through again!
“The Spiritual Qi Mantra can only circulate the spiritual Qi in the meridians to purify and increase the spiritual Qi in the body. Moreover, it would automatically cultivate according to the inertia of the circulation of one’s spiritual energy. But now, I’m going to expand the range of the spiritual Qi chant to cover my entire body!” Zhou Yun’s expression was determined. He took a deep breath and began to modify the Spiritual Qi Mantra!
To use the entire body as storage for spiritual energy was absolutely shocking!
He was no longer a human and was not much different from the spiritual corpse that had been refined! However, Zhou Yun had a feeling that if he could successfully modify the Spiritual Qi Mantra this time, he would have an unexpected discovery after his breakthrough!
Zhou Yun’s thoughts flew through his mind as he entered this state of enlightenment! With a single thought, the Spiritual Qi Mantra was modified several times! In just a moment, Zhou Yun had completed the modification of the Spiritual Qi Mantra!
“The modification of the Spiritual Qi Mantra is complete!” Zhou Yun heaved a sigh of relief. His plan had already succeeded halfway. All he needed to do now was to circulate the Spiritual Qi Mantra!
Zhou Yun gritted his teeth. At this moment, half of his face had completely cracked. He looked neither like a human nor a ghost, and it sent chills down one’s spine!
However, he didn’t care. He frantically mobilized the spiritual energy in his meridians. Under the guidance of the new Spiritual Qi Mantra, he used his entire body to circulate it in an unprecedented way!
“Whether I live or die, it all boils down to this!” Zhou Yun’s eyes were filled with determination. He had not finished what he wanted to do!
Modifying the Spiritual Qi Mantra and circulating all the spiritual Qi in his body was just a preparation! What he had to do next was to make the choice to determine his success!
“Now, I’m going to break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment!” Zhou Yun could no longer clench his teeth. His chin had been completely charred and had fallen off. His entire body was like a charred corpse!
