The Whole Cultivation World Wants To Revive The Venerable Chapter 82

Chapter 82

<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>

Continuous golden thunderbolts fell from the sky, containing an extremely pure spiritual energy.

For ordinary cultivators, this kind of spiritual energy was too overbearing and they would avoid it. However, for Cheng Huang, as a natural fierce beast that feeds on spiritual energy, from the moment the golden thunderbolt fell, Cheng Huang unconsciously absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy.

Just like not long ago when Cheng Huang suddenly grew larger after eating too many spirit medicines, this time, after absorbing too much pure spiritual energy in a short period of time, a vast and familiar memory suddenly appeared in Cheng Huang’s mind.

It was a memory from it’s previous life!

Cheng Huang remembered repeatedly swallowing the Du Sheng plaque, as well as the deal it made with Ling Buyan, and being sent back to the mortal world by Ling Buyan.

Most importantly, Cheng Huang remembered Ling Buyan shrinking it…

If it were any other time, Cheng Huang would have immediately sought revenge on Ling Buyan upon remembering this. But at this moment, recalling the past made Cheng Huang’s temper particularly irritable, and it directly pounced towards Mo Shenyu, who was not far away.

This person in front of it was the culprit who caused Fenglan to go insane. If it weren’t for him, its master wouldn’t have suffered so much in the previous life!

However, Mo Shenyu was ultimately a manifestation of Heavenly Dao. Even though he was currently trapped in place by the ink lotus and from Split Karma, when Cheng Huang pounced towards him, a golden light flashed by, and Cheng Huang was thrown back heavily.

Affected by the backlash of this spiritual power, Cheng Huang not only fell to the ground in an instant, but also reverted back to its original size. The dark blue flames under its feet also suddenly extinguished.

“Wu~” How embarrassing!

Cheng Huang couldn’t help but cover its face with both claws.

However, while Cheng Huang felt embarrassed, others did not feel the same way at all.

The people here all had some cultivation and common sense, and they knew how powerful natural fierce beasts were.

As the only born savage beast in the world, not even the ancient divine beast, Cheng Huang, could compete with Mo Shenyu… The scene before them made them feel hopeless.

Although Cheng Huang’s attack had no effect, it was still a dangerous ancient divine beast, and Mo Shenyu should have taken notice of it. However, Mo Shenyu never even glanced at Cheng Huang. He repeated his question, “What do you mean? How could the Heavenly Dao not be incomplete?!”

Although Li Fenglan had not met Mo Shenyu many times, in his impression, Mo Shenyu always had a calm and composed demeanor. He held a folding fan and wore a luxurious robe, as if he had everything in the world under his control.

But now, Mo Shenyu’s face was full of panic and even had an uncontrollable fear in his eyes.

Mo Shenyu was frightened by the fearlessness of Ling Buyan.

Ling Buyan smiled at Mo Shenyu and said only one sentence this time, “You were born out of personal desire. Even though you were once a thought of the Heavenly Dao, after being reborn as a human, you only have the Five Impure Roots and a short lifespan of only seventeen years.”

…How does Ling Buyan even know this?

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Li Fenglan, was shocked.

Although they were all cultivators, they were not all-knowing beings like people imagined. They themselves were not even sure where their own fate was leading them, let alone being able to read the fates of others.

Ling Buyan knew Mo Shenyu’s fate in this life, which completely exceeded everyone’s imagination.

Ling Buyan’s subsequent words seemed to have nothing to do with the doubts in everyone’s minds at the moment, but slowly answered Li Fenglan’s question…

After being reborn as a human, Mo Shenyu had his own soul. To the Heavenly Dao, he was a new person without any karma. Similarly, as a person without any karmic ties, Mo Shenyu only had a rough idea of what he had done to “become human” for the Heavenly Dao. But he did not possess the ability or the memories of millions of years in the past.

So he couldn’t recognize his “senior fellow disciple” Ling Buyan.

If Mo Shenyu wasn’t greedy and truly wanted to live as an ordinary person as he said, then he, who had no karma, could naturally live the rest of his life in peace. However, Mo Shenyu was unwilling to do so, just as Li Fenglan had sensed. Not only did he want the freedom and happiness of an ordinary person, but he also wanted the power of a cultivator. As a person formed by the thought of the Heavenly Dao, Mo Shenyu at this time had no cultivation base or spiritual roots, but he could communicate with the Heavenly Dao.

So when he was young, Mo Shenyu borrowed an opportunity from the Heavenly Dao for the first time and tried to steal spiritual roots from it.

“…From the day you borrowed the spiritual roots from me, I noticed you,” Ling Buyan smiled and said to Mo Shenyu.

“From that day on?”

Mo Shenyu had borrowed spiritual roots and had also incurred karma from his previous life.

But… that wasn’t the reason why Ling Buyan had noticed him.

Unless, unless Ling Buyan… like himself, could also communicate with the Heavenly Dao?!

As if answering Mo Shenyu’s question, Ling Buyan stopped talking and turned directly towards the rumbling golden thunder behind him. At the same time, Split Karma also suddenly flew towards the sky.

Countless bowl-sized golden thunderbolts all turned into slender golden lights, wrapping around the dark black Split Karma.

At this moment, Li Fenglan finally understood! He couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

So that’s how it was!

–Back then, part of Ling Buyan’s spiritual power and soul were used by Mo Shenyu to repair the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, when Ling Buyan first went to Endless Purgatory, his soul was incomplete. Later, it took him thousands of years to slowly repair his soul.

Back then, the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao probably never imagined that when Ling Buyan’s soul became strong again, he would have an extremely terrifying ability.

As the master, Ling Buyan could sense and control his own soul. And his part of the soul… is now also a part of the Heavenly Dao! Even during these thousands of years, it has grown stronger along with its master. This is why Ling Buyan just said that “the Heavenly Dao was not incomplete”!

Since the day Mo Shenyu first sought opportunity from the Heavenly Dao, Ling Buyan had already taken notice of him.

Following Ling Buyan’s arrangements, Mo Shenyu entered Tianmian Palace and even joined Miguang Mountain Sect.

All of this was not a coincidence but a result of Ling Buyan’s manipulation.

Ling Buyan kept Mo Shenyu under close observation, waiting for the day of revenge.

……

Mo Shenyu was a lazy person who looked down on cultivation. After borrowing the opportunity, he not only gained a spiritual root, but also absorbed a bit of the Heavenly Dao’s “qi”. With this qi, he could once again devour the power of ferocious beasts, just as he did in the past. This was exactly what Li Fenglan witnessed recently.

Although Ling Buyan did not know what Mo Shenyu specifically did, he could feel that all the karma from their past lives had slowly shifted back to Mo Shenyu.

What he was waiting for was this moment.

Although Ling Buyan had not truly ascended to the higher realms, killing someone who had no karmic ties with him would still harm his cultivation as a powerful being.

More importantly, Mo Shenyu, who was once a thought of the Heavenly Dao, was naturally protected by it after becoming human.

Now Ling Buyan had no such concerns.

Li Fenglan saw that hundreds of golden thunderbolts in the sky had all turned into thin golden lights, entwining around the blade of Split Karma. The sword, as black as night, seemed to be at the center of a tornado.

In the next moment, Mo Shenyu, who had been standing still, suddenly roared in anger and lowered his head.

In an instant, the sky above the vacant lot where Xieguang Tower once stood was filled with golden light, and Li Fenglan had to close his eyes. When he opened them again, he saw that Mo Shenyu, who had been standing there just a moment ago, had disappeared, replaced by a humanoid mass of golden light.

Intuition told Li Fenglan that Mo Shenyu had disregarded everything and once again borrowed the power of the Heavenly Dao.

It seemed that Mo Shenyu couldn’t control himself. After turning into a mass of golden light, the first thing he did was to turn around and attack an ordinary cultivator behind him.

Without much thought, Li Fenglan immediately held his long sword and instinctively thrust it towards the golden light.

Li Fenglan’s movement was very fast, and those standing opposite Mo Shenyu did not have time to react. The pure white sword body of Finished Karma, like jade, had already pierced into Mo Shenyu’s body.

“What’s going on…” The next moment, he realized that his sword did not seem to have any effect.

Mo Shenyu’s body was transformed into golden light and had no substance, so he was not afraid of Finished Karma’s attack at all.

Li Fenglan’s sword at most slightly delayed Mo Shenyu’s movement, giving the opposite cultivator some reaction time.

And it was at this moment that a huge ink lotus suddenly bloomed in front of Mo Shenyu. It was Ling Buyan!

He finally made a move.

The ink lotus blocked Mo Shenyu’s movement, and just as the cultivators behind him were panicking and fleeing, Ling Buyan suddenly turned around and looked at Li Fenglan.

At this moment, Ling Buyan smiled and the wind blew his long hair. Dressed in black, Ling Buyan suddenly spoke to Li Fenglan in an extremely gentle tone, “Fenglan, actually, I didn’t want to tell you these things at first… I’ve always intended to keep them hidden.” He sighed lightly.

Ling Buyan knew that Mo Shenyu could harness the power of the Heavenly Dao so even he himself would face a life-and-death situation when facing Mo Shenyu. Therefore, he had intended to handle this matter alone and not let Li Fenglan know.

Since he had been given a second chance at life, Li Fenglan should not be involved in these troubles. It would be good enough for him to be an ordinary cultivator on Miguang Mountain.

After a few moments of silence, his last words finally drifted in the wind.

“But in the end, I couldn’t help but want you to know everything. You need to live with clarity.”

Now, this is Ling Buyan’s wish.

He knew that in this lifetime, Li Fenglan no longer wanted to live in confusion and ambiguity, so he wanted him to live a clear life as well.

After saying these words, Split Karma once again fell into his hand. He gritted his teeth, didn’t look at Li Fenglan again, and went straight towards Mo Shenyu with his sword.

As for Li Fenglan who stood in place, he only had one thought in his mind at this moment—

He knew the outcome of this battle.

In “Tianmian Daosheng,” it was said that both Ling Buyan and Mo Shenyu would perish together.
