I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night
Chapter 363 - 254: Secrets of the Holy Land, Supreme Profound Dao to Saint!

Chapter 363: Chapter 254: Secrets of the Holy Land, Supreme Profound Dao to Saint!

The night was dark, and the streets were silent.

So silent it was unsettling.

"Since Mr. Lu sent you, you must already know the root cause of this matter?"

Thirteenth Young Master said this with a sigh.

His words had an element of probing.

Lin Yan understood immediately and slowly said, "Yin Thunder struck in the Holy Land, ancient arrows hit the Saint Master, leading to the dire situation of the Holy Land today..."

Upon hearing this, the Thirteenth Young Master finally exhaled and said, "The pen harbored only a strand of mana, so weak it was imperceptible, and thus destined to write limited content."

Lin Yan, with a slightly focused look, said, "According to what you’re saying, the current situation of the Holy Land seems even worse than what the pen had written?"

"The situation in the Holy Land is indeed precarious."

The Thirteenth Young Master seemed to relax his guard, sighed again, and slowly said, "Over the years, the Saint Master has introduced ’new methods’ to the world, some of which are still unperfected... In fact, it’s also a way to preserve the ’human cultivator’s flame of cultivation.’"

"What exactly happened back then?"

"I don’t know."

"You don’t know?"

"Ever since the Yin Thunder pierced through the Holy Land, the strangeness of the night began to infiltrate every corner of the Holy Land."

The Thirteenth Young Master’s expression was complex as he whispered, "At that time, I was young, but there were often powerful senior figures in the Holy Land engaging in rebellious acts! Now I know, their methods of cultivation had gone awry, leading to great disaster."

"The upper echelon of cultivators in the world always face severe hidden dangers; losing control is hard to avoid! Moreover, in the Holy Land, the Qi Refining Realm is also incomplete!"

Hearing this, Lin Yan said with a grave voice, "Why do you sound so surprised in your words?"

"There is a unique Cultivation Technique in the Holy Land, left by the first generation Saint Master, called the Supreme Profound Dao to Saint!"

The Thirteenth Young Master whispered, "All senior members of the Holy Land, no matter what techniques they cultivate, once they advance to the Qi Refinement Realm, they must also cultivate this technique!"

"With this technique, they can weaken the seven emotions and six desires, reducing the hidden dangers of the techniques, and thus make various decisions with the coldest of logic."

"In the past, the higher-ups of the Holy Land, selflessly for the Human Clan’s strategy, spoke only of pros and cons, not relations and emotion."

"Sometimes they would engage personally, unafraid of death, for the sake of success!"

Hearing this, Lin Yan couldn’t help recalling the words of Mr. Lu at the Liu Venerate Temple!

——

The path of cultivation should aim to cultivate the true self!

If, in the end, one has cultivated into someone far removed from the "self" of today.

Then this path of cultivation is akin to slowly killing one’s most original true self, and becoming another so-called "Divine Spirit!"

"Did the higher-ups of the Holy Land follow this path?"

Lin Yan thought, "Cutting off their own ’seven emotions and six desires,’ their hearts as firm as rock, their logic ice cold!"

This was also a path that chose to forsake one’s true self!

"The effectiveness of the Supreme Profound Dao to Saint is weakening."

The Thirteenth Young Master whispered, "Based on recent observations, extravagance is gradually rising within the Holy Land, with many restless and selfish individuals multiplying."

"When the sinister night invaded, the weirdness in the darkness infiltrated some of the high levels of the Holy Land, and the Saint Master suspects that the power of the sinister night might have destroyed their proficiency in the ’Supreme Profound Dao to Saint.’"

"The reason why the ’Supreme Profound Dao to Saint’ cannot be widely spread in the world to also reduce the hidden dangers of the Qi Refinement Realm, is because there is no sinister night within the Holy Land!"

As the Thirteenth Young Master spoke, Lin Yan’s gaze sharpened, and a complex feeling arose in his heart.

"Could it be that the Holy Land has never encountered the sinister night, containing only ancient Spiritual Energy?"

"Indeed, the Holy Land is abundant in Spiritual Energy, but not solely ’Spiritual Energy.’"

The Thirteenth Young Master sighed and said, "Moreover, people of the Holy Land often have to enter the world to drive away evil and exterminate overpowering foreign races, securing a stable situation for the survival of the Human Clan!"

"When they enter the world, their True Qi is expended and they seek recovery, making it difficult to maintain pure True Qi in this world!"

"But no matter what, the Holy Land is ultimately a place isolated from the world, renowned as a Grotto Heaven!"

"The ’Cave Heaven dojo’ of today is the place in the world least affected by the sinister night."

"But now that the Holy Land has been breached, it can no longer maintain ’purity,’ losing the true essence expected of a ’Cave Heaven dojo’, and will thus become akin to the ’ancient blessed lands’ of the world!"

"Having been to Lord Qingling’s Blessed Land, you should know that even blessed lands cannot completely ward off the influence of the sinister night! In his later years, Lord Qingling encountered the ominous presence of the sinister night!"

The Thirteenth Young Master sighed again.

As for Lin Yan, something stirred in his heart.

The Holy Land, known as a Grotto Heaven?

A place purer than a Blessed Land, isolated from the world?

Then, during the zenith of Lord Qingling, was that Blessed Land also considered part of the Grotto Heaven?

It was only in his later years, when the sinister night crept in, that it lost its purity, no longer isolated from the world, thus resulting in a fall in its status?

An even more crucial point was that Lin Yan had thought his identity as the new Lord of the Blessed Land was no secret in the Holy Land.

But now it seemed that only a few within the Holy Land were aware of it.

At least for now, neither the Sixth Vein Master nor this Thirteenth Young Master seemed to know the identity of the new Lord of the Blessed Land!

Upon reflection, it made some sense to conceal the identity of the Lord of the Blessed Land, also as a strategy for making significant moves, hoping to use the opportunity to sweep through hidden enemies!

If one can’t be entirely trusted within the Holy Land, then only a few would know the truth.
