Chapter 620 Lighting the Lamp (2)

Through the basic Taoist teachings that they preached this time, Jie Yin and Zhunti have confirmed that Ran Deng is indeed predestined to their Western religion. The only thing that Jie Yin and Zhunti don't understand is that Ran Deng's cultivation has now reached the perfection of the Daluo Jinxian, and he is only one step away from becoming a Quasi-Sage. Logically speaking, with such a level of cultivation, he should go into seclusion to break through. After all, strength is always the mainstream in the prehistoric world!

Since they couldn't figure it out, Jie Yin and Zhunti didn't think about it anymore, and directly brought Randeng up from the foot of Mount Xumi! The first time Randeng saw Jie Yin and Zhunti, he said respectfully, "Greetings, Venerable Jie Yin and Venerable Zhunti!"

Zhunti was not sure what Randeng was thinking, so he took the initiative to ask, "Daoist friend Randeng, I wonder why you came to the Western Temple this time?"

"In order to break through my own cultivation..."

Through Ran Deng’s own narration, Jie Yin and Zhunti finally understood why Ran Deng did not try to break through despite his perfect strength as a Golden Immortal, but instead came to their desolate place in the West!

After listening to the third sermon at Zixiao Palace and obtaining the Qiankun Ruler, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with thirty-six prohibitions that was destined for him from the Fenbao Cliff, Randeng went straight back to his own cave, Yuanjue Cave on Lingjiu Mountain (Lingjiu Mountain), and began his retreat!

Everything was fine before he broke through to the perfection of the Golden Immortal, but who knew that after Randeng's cultivation broke through to the perfection of the Golden Immortal, there would be no more progress at all!

Originally, he thought that this was because he did not participate in the first two sermons in Zixiao Palace. In order to break through the shackles of his own cultivation, Ran Deng also chose to seek advice from the Three Thousand Guests of Zixiao who had participated in the three sermons in Zixiao Palace!

But who knew that after discussing the Dao with Zixiao Sanqianke for a long time, he did not find an opportunity to break through! Later, the Three Pure Ones succeeded in proving the Dao. In order to break through to the Quasi-Sage realm, he deliberately went to participate in the disciple-recruiting ceremony of the Chan Sect and passed the Chan Sect's test. But who knew that after meeting Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun told him that he had no chance to be with the Chan Sect!

Originally, Ran Deng thought that Yuanshi Tianzun just didn't want him to join the Chan Sect, so Ran Deng begged him. Yuanshi Tianzun also saw that Ran Deng really wanted to become his disciple sincerely in order to break through his cultivation. In order to make Ran Deng give up, Yuanshi Tianzun gave him a sermon from the simplest to the most complex!

After listening to the talk, Ran Deng understood that although Yuanshi Tianzun did not reveal all his cards, he did explain all the key points of cultivation, which benefited him a lot. However, Ran Deng still did not feel the barrier between the Daluo Jinxian and the Quasi-Sage!

After realizing that it would be difficult for him to break through even if he joined the Chan Sect, Ran Deng became somewhat disheartened. However, Yuanshi Tianzun showed him a clear path and let him know that his future lies in the West!

Originally, Randeng was somewhat reluctant to go, but who knew that not long after Yuanshi Tianzun sent him out of Kunlun Mountain, he saw the scene of Jie Yin and Zhunti attaining enlightenment!

Under the vision of Jie Yin and Zhunti becoming saints, Randeng seemed to feel that the facts might really be as Yuanshi Tianzun said, his way is in the West!

In order to verify his guess, when Jie Yin and Zhunti were talking about the basic Taoism, Ran Deng was also listening on the side. Originally, Ran Deng thought that he would still follow the teachings of the Chan school, and after listening to the saints' teachings, he would not feel the barrier of breaking through to the quasi-sainthood. However, who knew that Jie Yin and Zhunti were indeed talking about the basic Taoism, but after listening to the teachings, Ran Deng found that his bottleneck, which was originally as solid as a rock, had actually loosened!

Just when Randang was feeling happy about the breakthrough in his cultivation, he was directly led and taken to the temple on Mount Sumeru by Jīnti!

Jie Yin and Zhunti were somewhat dissatisfied with Ran Deng's behavior of going to Kunlun Mountain first to seek the Three Pure Ones for help in breaking through his cultivation. However, the two brothers also understood that in the eyes of all living beings, they were indeed no match for the Three Pure Ones transformed from Pangu's original spirit. Moreover, if they were in Ran Deng's situation, they would also go to Kunlun Mountain first to try their luck. Therefore, Ran Deng's behavior could only be said to be human nature. Even if Jie Yin and Zhunti were dissatisfied, they could not say anything!
