Chapter 1016: Chapter 1016: The Two Bodies of the Crazy Woman

The so-called "Eight Gates of Heaven" doesn’t mean that only when all eight gates are combined do they represent the true essence of Heavenly Dao; rather, each gate is derived from the essence of Heavenly Dao. That is to say, you are now, just like those saints who disdain mundane life, comprehending the Heavenly Dao!

Due to the lack of a master’s guidance all this while, your cultivation has been based on your own exploration, resulting in very slow progress and an inability to harness the full power of the "Eight Gates of Heaven."

Let’s talk about the "Activate Gate" first.

The "Activate Gate" is endowed with the power to destroy the sky and the earth. On the day of Mahayana, to shatter mountains and break the universe is as easy as lifting a hand. Moreover, many mysteries within it await exploration, as this Absolute Skill was created at the moment the Pathless Demon God ceased to exist and has not been further developed; thus, the current prospects are limited.

Then there’s the "Resting Gate."

According to Bodhi Ancient Master, when Mahayana is achieved through the "Resting Gate," there are no longer gaps between heaven and earth, and with just a thought, you can cross mountains and seas, instantly teleporting. Bodhi Ancient Master also hinted that even if you were trapped within a formation, you could escape instantly with the power of "Resting Gate," and within or outside the Three Realms, no one could contain you.

As for the "Gate of Life," it can be said to truly defy heaven.

When Mahayana is achieved through the "Gate of Life," even if the heaven and earth collapse, the physical body will not be destroyed, just like Pangu reborn, unafraid of the force of spatial vortexes, with Life Force eternally regenerating, never ceasing. The power of the "Gate of Life" is not only for restoring the life vitality of the body but also for rejuvenating the Soul Power—a fact that if known to outsiders, would likely plunge the Three Realms into chaos in an instant.

Then there is the "Injury Gate."

This gate is the door of slaughter. Initially, it simply uses the power of one’s essence blood to instantly boost combat value. As the realm increases, it can form a "Domain" like that of the Purgatory Demon God, where within this domain, blood flows incessantly, slaughter never stops, and God and Demon are invincible.

Lastly, there is the "Scenic Sect," with which you’re already proficient in the real world but have just touched the threshold here.

The "Scenic Sect" wields the Power of Five Elements to challenge the world: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth—together they cycle, overseeing the Three Realms.

As for the remaining "Shocking Sect," "Dumen," and "Death Gate," these three aren’t the most difficult to unlock; rather, it’s not yet your time. Maybe you will never be able to unlock them, or perhaps tomorrow you will open them all at once, that’s something no one can say.

Of the three, you have some memory of the "Death Gate," having opened it before in Heavenless Hell.

Although you don’t know how it works within the Map of Kingdom, you do know that once the "Death Gate" is activated, it’s a fight to the death!

Moreover, what you need now is not more skills but an increase in realm. Just like a Jianghu Swordsman, even if you know eighteen types of martial arts, without deep Inner Strength, you can’t display the true destructive power of your skills, and learning more moves would be futile.

You’re very aware of the enemies you will face in the future, and naturally, you will not slack off.

"To be honest, I really got quite a shock just now; I didn’t expect you to be able to use such a heavenly treasure so easily," Qin Yuxuan said, with a hint of pride in her voice.

"Things are never as simple as they appear. In your eyes, it seems like my fusion with the Fire Spirit Pearl was very relaxed and brief, but to me, it felt as long as a century or two, not to mention the dangers involved, which you can’t comprehend," you said, looking at the moon that seemed so close above and revealing a profound smile.

"So what? In the end, you succeeded," Qin Yuxuan, naturally straightforward, didn’t fuss over details, "But you still need to be more careful in the future, after all, you are not alone."

"I’m well aware of that. If I don’t fight with all I’ve got, sooner or later I’ll be slain by my enemies. That’s how this world works—it’s either you die or I perish. The weak are like ants, someone could crush them with just the flick of a finger," you exhaled slowly.

"You," Qin Yuxuan paused, then suddenly asked.

"Hmm?"

"If, I mean if. If you ever remember the past, how would you treat me?" Qin Yuxuan finally mustered the courage to ask.

Looking at Qin Yuxuan, your gaze met her hopeful eyes, and you were momentarily taken aback, as if understanding something.

You smiled slightly and then reached out to embrace her from behind. Qin Yuxuan’s body tensed up at first, and then under your steady breathing and warm body temperature, she slowly relaxed into your embrace.

"Crazy woman..."

"You’re the crazy one... Ah! You... you actually knew..."

"Hmm, what kind of man do you think your husband is?" you said, gently biting her delicate earlobe, "But what’s going on with you? Why do you have two bodies?"

Qin Yuxuan chuckled faintly, "Want to know? Hmm, I won’t tell you."

"Oh? Aren’t you afraid that your husband will put you through harsh punishment?"

"Hmph! Don’t assume I will marry you. I’m a Cultivator with a long life ahead; I can play the long game!"

Your smile didn’t fade, and you kept holding Qin Yuxuan, who also nestled into your embrace.

Your romantic moment with Qin Yuxuan only ended as you entered the skies above Minzhou City. Leaving Qin Yuxuan, you returned to the courtyard.

There, Zhen Nan and Zi Yi had been waiting for quite some time. You recounted tonight’s adventures but did not reveal anything about Qin Yuxuan and Huo Wu to them. After all, women are known to be jealous, and you were certain that Huo Wu was a Demon and your relationship with her was only that of master and servant; and with Qin Yuxuan, you would never explain. Especially now, when it was unclear why Xian Qianling could control both Li Xiangwei and Qin Yuxuan simultaneously.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was spent sweetly with the three women, but you felt something strange about Zhen Nan. You sensed she had something on her mind, but since she didn’t speak of it, you didn’t ask. After all, the apparently sweet relationship was merely to fulfill the promise you made to Xi Yu.

After indulging in drinking with the two women last night, you woke up the next day feeling somewhat groggy. You didn’t use the power of the "Gate of Life" to sober up, even though you knew it could instantly cure you even if you were poisoned.

You didn’t want to lose the habits of ordinary life; after all, you were not a God, not a Demon, but a human being.

In Minzhou, you were essentially the Land Emperor. You could say life was even better than being the Emperor yourself: no need for morning court, no need to review memorials, and today, you skipped work again.
