Chapter 889 The Shortcomings of the New Dao Proving Method

It was precisely because of Bai Zhen's layers of restrictions that, even though the beings of Qingqiu occupied the starry sky for an entire eon after the Lich War, not a single fox clan member succeeded in attaining the Dao through the method of bloodline.

Among them, the strongest fox in the fox clan who cultivates the bloodline to prove the Dao is called Bai Po. He has now raised his cultivation to the level of a sub-saint and is only one step away from proving the Dao of Hunyuan!

Getting back to the main point, after obtaining the new method of enlightenment, Bai Zhen began to study it! After some analysis, Bai Zhen thoroughly researched this so-called method of enlightenment!

This so-called method of attaining enlightenment is actually a mutated fusion of the world-based enlightenment method and the three-corpse enlightenment method. A cultivator wishing to follow this method first needs to find a great world; second, they need to establish the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity within that world; third, they need to use the method of severing the three corpses to eliminate them; and finally, the benevolent corpse merges with the Heavenly Dao, the malevolent corpse merges with the Earthly Dao, and the obsessive corpse merges with the Human Dao!

If this cultivator can successfully unite his three corpses with the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man, this being can use the origin of this great world to successfully attain the Primordial Chaos!

Because this method of attaining enlightenment relies on the external force of a vast world rather than on seeking enlightenment within oneself and relying on one's own strength as in the way of attaining enlightenment through laws, this method of attaining enlightenment through primordial chaos will have certain shortcomings!

There are four most obvious shortcomings. First, the difficulty of proving the Dao is no less than the difficulty of merging the three corpses into one and returning to oneself.

However, this method of proving the Dao also gave a glimmer of hope to the great beings in the prehistoric world who had never used objects of the same origin to sever their corpses. After all, the three corpses and the three paths of Heaven, Earth and Man do not require that the objects used to sever the corpses must be of the same origin!

Secondly, although that vast world is the place where beings who use this method to attain enlightenment can achieve it, at the same time, it will also become the greatest weakness of those beings. Once this world is breached, the path of beings who attain enlightenment through this method will be completely severed.

Thirdly, the future path of a cultivator who uses this method to attain enlightenment is linked to the Great Thousand World he uses to attain enlightenment. If he encounters any problems in the process of advancing the world's evolution, such as the world's grade regressing or stagnating, his cultivation will also regress or stagnate under the influence of the world where he attains enlightenment!

Fourthly, cultivators who use this method to attain enlightenment may reach the level of a saint due to taking a shortcut, but their cultivation level cannot keep up. This leads to a decline in strength once they leave this world before their cultivation level catches up. Once they are completely away from this world, their strength will drop back to the late stage of quasi-saint!

However, this drawback is not without a solution. In the future, as long as beings who attain enlightenment through this method diligently cultivate and elevate their realm to a level commensurate with their strength, their power will not decline in the slightest, provided the Great Thousand World remains undamaged or their rank does not drop!

After learning about the shortcomings of this method of attaining enlightenment, Bai Zhen had no intention of paying attention to the beings outside of Qingqiu. If they wanted to attain enlightenment using this method, they could do so. However, Bai Zhen did not intend to allow any beings under the rule of the Fox Clan to attain enlightenment through the Great Thousand Worlds subordinate to the Primordial World.

After all, no matter how much the Great Thousand Worlds attached to the Primordial World are nurtured, their grade will never exceed that of the Primordial World itself. Moreover, unless the Primordial Worlds evolve again and advance to the Eternal True World, the Great Thousand Worlds are already the limit of the Primordial Worlds attached to the Primordial Worlds. This also means that, by using the Great Thousand Worlds attached to the Primordial Worlds to attain enlightenment, becoming a Saint is already the limit of their cultivation!

Of course, Bai Zhen did not want the people of Qingqiu to give up their desire to attain enlightenment through this method. Instead, he planned to find a way to heaven for them, so that those alien races who lacked natural talent and had to rely on external forces to attain enlightenment would also have the opportunity to attain the Primordial Chaos!

After thinking for a while, Bai Zhen came up with two alternative methods. One was the inspiration given by the Three Pure Ones' Three Pure Ones Pearl, which was refined by the Chaos Pearl.
