Chapter 634 The Deceased King of Gods, The Abnormal Laws of Balance
The two then slowly browsed the myriad martial arts techniques on the stone wall.
The temple's cultivation methods are vast and numerous, including powerful ancient techniques for tempering the body, calming methods for nourishing the soul, fierce sword techniques, and profound mental cultivation methods for solidifying one's foundation.
All-encompassing yet each with its own unique charm, they are all the fruits of the human race's ancestors' painstaking efforts and legacy, preserved and passed down through countless trials and tribulations.
After careful consideration, Feng Yun Wuji had made up his mind and firmly selected his three cultivation techniques.
The first gate is the supreme inheritance of the human race, the Emperor's Scripture.
The second technique is the Spiritual Intent Sword Body Technique.
This technique is extremely unique. It does not cultivate qi and blood or refine the physical body. Instead, it focuses on cultivating the spirit, mind, and spiritual swordsmanship, enabling one to transform one's thoughts into thousands of divine swords.
It is most suitable for geniuses with strong primordial spirits to cultivate, and is an extremely powerful divine soul sword path inheritance.
Nourish the sword with your spirit, and forge your body with the sword. When you reach the ultimate level of cultivation, your whole being becomes a sword. The sword is your body, and your body is the sword. With a single thought, the sword intent will pierce through heaven and earth.
"Although this technique is not of a very high level, its concept is lofty, which is good."
Jiang Hao had seen many sword cultivators, but this sect's path was more thorough than that of ordinary sword cultivators. Ordinary sword cultivators control the sword with their own body, while this sect is about the unity of man and sword, where the sword is man and man is sword, leaving no way out.
The third gate is the Nine Revolutions Life and Death Mystery Technique.
This technique reverses life and death, inverts yin and yang, undergoes nine cycles of reincarnation, and is reborn step by step. In the process of cultivation, one faces nine deaths and one life. One transforms to a higher realm after each transformation. After experiencing nine cycles of life and death, one can transcend the shackles of the mortal world and ascend to the supreme peak with both body and soul. It is the most cruel ancient method for tempering one's character and for defying the heavens in desperate situations.
The Nine Revolutions Life and Death Profound Technique involves a transformation of death and rebirth with each breakthrough in realm, totaling nine revolutions.
Each transformation involves a near-collapse tempering process; if one fails, one is reduced to ashes; if one succeeds, one is reborn.
This was indeed Fengyun Wuji's future cultivation path. He used this technique to push himself to the limit time and time again, pulling himself back from the brink of death each time, and forcibly forging an impossible path.
These two techniques are the fundamental basis for Feng Yun Wuji's rise to power, perfectly matching his path of dividing his primordial spirit into three parts and attaining the destiny of the Sword God.
Jiang Hao didn't say much. He had long known that Feng Yun Wuji would choose these two techniques, just as he had long known which path Feng Yun Wuji would take in the future.
He didn't stop them, because everyone has their own path to walk.
After selecting his cultivation method, Feng Yun Wuji bowed slightly to Jiang Hao, his expression cool and serious.
"Fellow Daoist, I have chosen my path and am preparing for seclusion and arduous cultivation. We part today, and may meet again in the future."
Jiang Hao smiled and nodded: "Okay, see you another day."
Feng Yun Wuji turned and walked into the depths of the cave, his back straight and his steps firm.
He was a proud man. In the lower realm, he was always number one among his peers, far ahead of the competition. He wanted to be the same in the upper realm.
Moreover, after learning about the specific situation of the human race, he felt pressured and a sense of responsibility arose within him; he wanted to change the human race's situation.
Jiang Hao watched Feng Yun Wuji walk away without giving him anything. Jiang Hao wouldn't interfere too much with Feng Yun Wuji's growth trajectory. Everyone has their own destiny and opportunities, and his intervention might not be a good thing.
Jiang Hao knew clearly that the chosen ones had their own destiny and path. The trials and tribulations these people endured were all necessary steps on their path to enlightenment. Outsiders who rashly interfered, seemingly to help, might actually be doing more harm than good.
"As for help, the Emperor's Scripture is enough. I believe that with his talent and comprehension, he will do even better."
After Feng Yun Wuji disappeared into the depths of the stone cave, Jiang Hao withdrew his gaze, walked out of the holy land, stood amidst the long winds of the heavens, and looked up to survey the vast world.
"The most terrifying thing in this world is not the supreme god, but the law of balance."
Based on Feng Yun Wuji's life experiences and the various situations that have occurred in this world, Jiang Hao discovered that the most terrifying thing in this world is the so-called law of balance.
He discovered that the laws of balance in this world were completely different from those in other worlds. In other worlds, the laws of balance were just a part of the operation of heaven and earth, one of many laws, and their status was not special.
But in this world, the law of balance holds a supreme position, like the king among countless laws, suppressing anything that might break the balance.
Where there are gods, there are corresponding demons. And the same goes for the main gods: there are thirteen main gods in Heaven and thirteen main gods in the Demon Realm, the numbers are exactly equal.
One positive and one negative, one light and one dark, one good and one evil, equal in number, equal in combat power, equal in authority, with perfect checks and balances, down to the last detail.
Light and darkness always maintain a precise balance.
Whenever anything in the world transcends balance and breaks the equilibrium, the laws of balance will automatically correct, suppress, and eliminate it.
"As expected, a place that can become a great world will always have its own unique characteristics."
This world has more than twenty main gods. Although they are not complete Celestial Kings, they at least have the combat power of Celestial Kings, which is quite remarkable.
"So, the death of the fourteenth chief god was the work of this law of balance."
Long ago, this world almost gave birth to its fourteenth supreme god.
The nascent supreme god possesses terrifying talent and boundless potential. Once fully formed, its combat power will overwhelm the other twenty-six supreme gods, earning it the title of King of Gods. If it truly appears, it will completely shatter the balance of power between gods and demons, and the balance between light and darkness.
Because it was too powerful, exceeding the limit of the world's balance laws, it was ultimately strangled in its infancy by the rules of the balance of heaven and earth, dying before it was even born, and never came into the world.
All the myriad worlds in the heavens have the principle of balance, but no other world has engraved balance into the origin of the Great Dao, making it the supreme core that governs the world, as here.
"This law of balance is indeed powerful. Even Feng Yun Wuji, the chosen one, ultimately failed to break through the law of balance."
Even in the final destiny of this world, Feng Yun Wuji sacrificed all human emotions and humanity, and ascended to the position of the main god of the human race by merging with the Dao. It seemed to be a way to break the deadlock for the human race, but in reality, he still could not escape the law of balance.
He severed all emotions, shed his human heart, and transformed into the ruthless Dao, becoming a part of the cold, icy rules of Heaven from a human being. In the end, he still became a link in the balance system, never able to break free from the shackles of Heaven and Earth.
"Therefore, to solve the problems of this world, we must solve the laws of balance in this world."
Jiang Hao's gaze was deep, and he had completely seen through the root of this world.
Jiang Hao stood atop the mountain, facing the wind, his gaze piercing through the void, looking towards the top structure of this world.
The core problem of this world is not the supreme god, nor gods and demons, but the law of balance itself.
It is the cornerstone of all order, and also the root of all shackles.
To fundamentally change the world's situation and prevent gods and demons from viewing humans as prey, the key lies in breaking or circumventing this law.
Only by completely shaking, dismantling, and breaking the supreme balance of this world can we truly break the deadlock.
But how to break through this barrier still needs further thought.
Jiang Hao bid farewell to the holy land and stepped out of the territory of the human race's holy temple alone, slowly traveling through this vast world.
The land where the human race of the Upper Realm has lived for generations is called the Ancient Continent.
The entire continent exudes a primitive and majestic wildness, with boundless skies and rivers, rugged and towering mountains, and thick, ancient soil layers, bearing the marks of countless battles throughout the ages.
Broken sacred mountains, dried-up ancient riverbeds, and traces of battlefields are scattered across the land, every inch of which is soaked with ancient blood and the passage of time.
There was no splendor or prosperity of a golden age, only a somber and desolate landscape after enduring vicissitudes and slaughter.
