Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

Chapter 96: Bodhi Visualization Sutra the King of Man Wants to Come and Pay Homage!

The next day, Azure Dragon Hall.

Han Xuanji didn’t dwell too much on yesterday’s events; his mind was calm, and he began to sign in as usual.

“Congratulations to the Host for successfully signing in at Azure Dragon Hall, obtaining the secret technique “Bodhi Contemplation Scripture.””

“The Bodhi Contemplation Scripture?”

Han Xuanji was slightly surprised.

Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, on the Kyushu Continent, an eminent monk from overseas crossed the boundless ocean to spread Buddhism in Kyushu, but was met with joint resistance from the local Sects.

Ultimately, he had no choice but to settle in a remote, bitter cold region in the far west of Kyushu, and the Buddhist Legacy gradually declined in Kyushu as a result.

Buddhist Cultivation Techniques are known for their proficiency in tempering the Physical Body and refining the Divine Soul.

At this moment, Han Xuanji also received the memories transmitted by the System, and countless profound scriptures instantly poured into him.

“Indeed, it is a supreme secret technique of Buddhism.”

Han Xuanji secretly thought.

This Bodhi Contemplation Scripture is precisely a supreme contemplation technique that directly points to the Origin of the Divine Soul!

Its core essence is to contemplate an ancient Bodhi tree, containing supreme wisdom, deep within the Sea of Consciousness, using Divine Thought as a guide to connect with the profound Buddha-nature, making the Divine Soul as pure and untainted as Bodhi, resilient and indestructible.

“Contemplating Bodhi with Divine Thought, directly pointing to the Origin of the Dao; the conception of this Cultivation Technique, its upper limit… I’m afraid it’s even above the Grand Beginning Immortal Formula!”

Han Xuanji realized.

The Bodhi tree, also known as the tree of wisdom, the tree of enlightenment, is rumored to be able to awaken one’s divinity and enlighten the Great Dao.

And the World Honored Buddha achieved the Dao and attained the supreme Great Dao under the Bodhi tree.

Han Xuanji’s Divine Soul was naturally not weak; the higher the Realm, the stronger the Divine Soul, Physical Body, and spiritual power would become, not to mention he had consumed many Spirit Pills, miraculous medicines, and Heaven And Earth Treasures.

But who would dislike becoming stronger in this aspect?

A glint of light flashed in Han Xuanji’s eyes; he no longer pondered and immediately immersed his mind in the profound scriptures.

Deep within the Sea of Consciousness, a blurry yet infinitely vibrant shadow of a Bodhi tree slowly outlined itself…

…

Great Xia Imperial Dynasty.

“Win… won?”

The Xia Emperor suddenly stood up from his Dragon throne, disbelief and joy filling his heart.

The long-standing gloom that had shrouded his brows now dissipated.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, it is absolutely true; the news has been repeatedly confirmed!”

A Soul Transformation Cultivator bowed and reported, his voice also trembling with barely suppressed emotion, his face filled with shock and lingering fear.

“It was… it was Demon-Slaying Sword Master! With just one sword strike! He caused the Divine Fire Sect Old Ancestor, the four Venerables of the Absolute Heaven Alliance, and tens of thousands of elite Cultivators from Great Ming to all… turn to ashes!”

He took a deep breath and continued, “Moreover, according to reliable sources, the Great Ming army has also begun to waver.”

At this moment, Li Yuntian and the Third Prince exchanged glances, both seeing shock and shame in each other’s eyes.

To think that they had once attempted to recruit or even scheme against such a figure; looking back now, it was utterly ignorant and ridiculous.

In the face of absolute strength, these schemes were too laughable.

Now, they had only one thought: to make every effort to befriend him, and even if they couldn’t, they must never make an enemy of him!

“Good! Good! Excellent—!”

The Xia Emperor could no longer suppress himself, losing some composure.

After a long while, he calmed his emotions and regained his imperial demeanor, but the excitement in his heart remained undiminished.

“Shenxuan Sect… is truly the pillar of Great Xia!”

The Xia Emperor sighed with genuine emotion, his voice carrying an unprecedented solemnity.

“Demon-Slaying Sword Master, moreover, settled the universe with one sword, turning the tide when it was about to overturn…”

“He is truly an Immortal Sword Cultivator in the world, no, he is the Protector Sword Immortal of our Great Xia!”

His gaze was sharp as he swept across the officials in the hall, issuing a decisive command:

“Pass down My decree: mobilize the entire nation’s resources, spare no effort, and at all costs, forge a good relationship with Shenxuan Sect and with Demon-Slaying Sword Master! Imperial Family disciples, all those with Aptitude, shall be given priority to cultivate in Shenxuan Sect. As for the national treasury’s treasures, whatever the Sword Master needs, he may take at will. Furthermore, prepare the highest-grade national 禮; I… will personally visit Shenxuan Sect to express My gratitude to the Sword Immortal!”

“Your subjects obey the decree!”

The entire court of civil and military officials resoundingly agreed, without the slightest dissent.

Many important ministers even volunteered, hoping to accompany him to Shenxuan Sect, even if it was just to admire the demeanor of that peerless Sword Immortal from afar.

The news spread like wildfire, and the major Cultivation Families within Great Xia immediately responded.

Old Ancestors who had been in seclusion for many years emerged one after another, strictly ordering their clans:

“Talented disciples within the clan, immediately, right now, send them to Shenxuan Sect! This is a decision concerning the Family’s Luck for a thousand years!”

Soon, the news of the five Undergoing Tribulation Cultivators’ deaths shocked the world.

One must know that the Divine Fire Sect was one of the powerful Sects within the Great Ming Imperial Dynasty, and this time, they had come out in full force, even allied with the four Undergoing Tribulation Venerables of the Absolute Heaven Alliance, an overseas hegemon, as well as many Advanced Cultivators from Great Ming.

Such a formidable lineup was… completely annihilated in front of Shenxuan Sect’s mountain gate, with no one surviving!

In the shadows, countless pairs of eyes had glimpsed fragments of that battle through secret techniques and Magic Treasures.

That sword light that tore through the sky and annihilated all things, that terrifying scene where life ceased for a thousand li, was deeply imprinted in the Divine Soul of every observer.

In the past, some Cultivators from major overseas Sects were quite arrogant and domineering in Great Xia, but after learning of this incident, they began to restrain themselves, especially those who traveled in Great Xia, no longer daring to be as reckless as before.

Within just a few days, Shenxuan Sect’s prestige soared to an unprecedented Peak!

Countless people compared it to those ancient Holy Lands and Immortal Sects in Zhongzhou that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years.

Even those deep-rooted great Sects from overseas heard the news of the Absolute Heaven Alliance suffering a great loss and quietly remembered the names “Shenxuan Sect” and “Demon-Slaying Sword Master.”

The source of all this was the power of that single sword strike!

…

Great Ming Imperial Palace, Golden Imperial Hall.

The atmosphere was oppressive.

Urgent reports from the front line were sent into the palace, every word like a heavy hammer, striking hard at the heart of the current Ming Emperor.

He sat on the Dragon throne, but no longer had his former high spirits; his eyes were hollow and lifeless, his face shrouded in an unshakeable sorrow and despair.

His temples, in a single night, had even turned frosty white.

The day before.

Only a very small number of Imperial Family disciples knew that the Soul Lamp that had protected Great Ming for ten thousand years had extinguished.

One must know that this Imperial Family Old Ancestor was a Middle Stage Undergoing Tribulation Cultivator, and now, he, along with the Imperial Advisor and many accompanying experts from the Imperial faction, had all perished!

Having lost so much top-tier combat power, let alone continuing to attack Great Xia.

At this moment, within the imperial court, undercurrents were already surging.

Various forces were stirring, and having lost so many trusted aides, even the Ming Emperor himself felt despair.

“Demon-Slaying Sword Master…”

The Ming Emperor murmured, his voice dry and hoarse.

He looked up in the direction of Great Xia, his eyes filled only with deep reverence and fear.

The power displayed by that peerless Sword Cultivator from Great Xia was beyond human imagination.

Let alone Great Ming, even in the vast overseas… how many could contend with him?

“It is truly… Heaven’s will to destroy me.”
