Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 1900 - 1419: Pending修
"Alas!"
With a sigh, a cold voice sounded, "Why can’t you just obediently immerse yourself in the illusionary realm, honestly get devoured by me, and be the stepping stone on my path to ascension to the Outer Heaven Demon Realm, wouldn’t that be good? Why must you wake up?"
A Heart Demon like it must devour the being that gave birth to it to break free from its shackles and ascend to the Luohou Demon Realm, where it can then hinder the cultivation of other beings.
At this moment, a figure appeared in the darkness, its appearance shrouded by a thin layer of black mist, looking extremely mysterious.
And it was the culprit who caused Xiaoqing to land in such a situation!
Though to say it this way seems somewhat inaccurate, after all, the birth of the Heart Demon was due to his own issues.
"Heh! You want my life but don’t allow me to resist? What kind of logic is this?" Xiaoqing said with a heavy heart and a cold expression.
Honestly, his current state wasn’t good, having suffered greatly in the illusionary realm. If it came to a head-on confrontation with the Heart Demon, he probably wouldn’t be a match.
But the Heart Demon, unlike ordinary beings, relies more on mental attacks, and the Dao Heart, mental state, and willpower, are all very subjective.
As long as Xiaoqing can hold fast to the Dao Heart and maintain a steadfast will, not influenced by the Heart Demon, the other party can do nothing to him!
Simply put, it’s ’believing in the power of belief.’
However, this situation is easier said than done; ten out of ten people are unlikely to succeed, because any slight wavering would be seized by the Heart Demon, exploiting this tiny flaw to attack.
But now Xiaoqing had no other option but to use this method to fight against the Heart Demon.
His Spiritual Soul immediately sat cross-legged above the Sea of Consciousness, silently reciting the "Scripture of Purity and Stillness," while also beginning the cultivation of the Observation Method "White Lotus Purifying World" taught to him by Li Zhirui many years ago but long abandoned.
Coincidentally, or perhaps through sheer luck, he sat directly above a Purifying White Lotus Seed left for him by Li Zhirui!
Xiaoqing’s actions just so happened to draw out the lotus seed hidden deep within the Sea of Consciousness.
In a moment, his entire body emitted a bright white light, the power of purification surrounding him, while a lotus platform slowly emerged beneath him.
Not only that, but the white lotus continued to expand outward, seemingly intent on filling the entire Sea of Consciousness.
Seeing this, the Heart Demon, who was initially relaxed, confident in having secured Xiaoqing’s life, suddenly turned pale with shock and anger, shouting, "Damn it! How do you have a Purifying White Lotus on you!"
The Heart Demon was born from Xiaoqing’s consciousness, although it didn’t contain all his memories, it remembered things that posed a great threat to it.
Therefore, while it secretly influenced Xiaoqing, it always wanted to stay away from Li Zhirui, unwilling to get too close to someone of complete purification principle mastery.
The Heart Demon, without Heavenly Immortal-level cultivation, naturally didn’t understand the methods of Heavenly Immortals.
The various abnormal phenomena it exhibited while influencing Xiaoqing were actually seen by Li Zhirui, who, with a slight probe, knew what was going on, leaving Xiaoqing with a lifeline.
Although even Li Zhirui didn’t anticipate the situation developing as it had, he initially imagined that when Xiaoqing couldn’t resist the Heart Demon and was about to be devoured, the Purifying Lotus Seed would reveal itself to save his life.
However, through an unexpected twist, Xiaoqing activated the white lotus seed by cultivating the Observation Method "White Lotus Purifying World."
As a result, he gained the power to face off against the Heart Demon.
Of course, this was good news for Xiaoqing. Although the odds were slim, at least he wasn’t waiting powerlessly for death.
"Hmph! Do you think this will save your life?"
The Heart Demon snorted coldly, retreating back into the darkness, swiftly casting spells, sending hundreds or even thousands of black shadows flying toward the expanding white lotuses.
Zi Zi Zi——
As if water and fire collided, it instantly triggered a violent reaction.
The black shadows swiftly dissolved, turning into blobs of ink, congregating into a pool of water within Xiaoqing’s Sea of Consciousness, appearing distinct yet secretly spreading, attempting to demonize the entire Sea of Consciousness.
Consequently, the expansion of the white lotus halted, only able to barely maintain its current state under the assault of the black shadows.
It appeared that the white lotus representing Xiaoqing occupied only a small area. Although most of the Sea of Consciousness was untainted by the Heart Demon, it completely sealed Xiaoqing, preventing him from expanding his advantage.
Conversely, after restraining Xiaoqing, the Heart Demon could demonize the remaining Sea of Consciousness unimpeded.
Its current plan was to first expand its advantage and then concentrate its power to settle Xiaoqing once and for all!
The dark space expanded slowly, leaving him not much time, yet Xiaoqing felt no tension or panic, his heart calm as still water, will unwavering, continuously reciting the "Scripture of Purity and Stillness," cultivating "White Lotus Purifying World."
However, after a moment, the white lotus beneath him began to take action.
The white lotus ceased its outward expansion, instead letting its roots delve into the ink-like pool formed by the black shadows, absorbing and converting its power to nourish itself.
This was not Xiaoqing’s doing, but an innate ability of the white lotus since its birth to absorb and transform impurities, using them as nutrients.
And precisely through this means, the white lotus, which was withering under the relentless assault of the black shadows, began to rejuvenate, even regaining strength and continuing to expand outward!
