Chapter 265 Heavenly Book of Calamity, Strange Madness (2)

At that time, he would decide if he wanted to head to the Purple Sun Immortal World.

The final outcome was obvious. Ye Han naturally did not go to Tianmen Star.

In the next 500 years, he did not even look at the secret manual, afraid that he would be plotted against.

However, 500 years ago, he encountered a huge crisis. Helpless, he could only open that secret manual and try to find a way to save himself.

He did not expect to really find anything.

That secret manual was the Heavenly Book of Calamity that Ye Han had previously used to spread the plague in Yongzhou in an attempt to absorb the power of fear to cultivate.

This was the part of Ye Han’s life that concerned the Purple Sun Immortal World.

After Cui Heng read this, he did not stop. He carefully looked at the other periods in Ye Han’s life.

After reading everything, he closed the book.

Then, he fell into deep thought.

“If what Saint Mingzhen said is true, there should be a problem with the cultivation method used in the starry skies of the myriad worlds which uses Immortal True Essence as the core. Moreover, there is a cultivation method in the Purple Sun Realm which doesn’t use Immortal True Essence.

“However, what’s so special about this Ye Han that can make this Sage of the Purple Sun Realm watch him like this and insist on roping him into the Purple Sun Realm?

In Ye Han’s 3,000 years of life experience, there doesn’t seem to be anything particularly worth paying attention to. Did I not understand it well enough, or did I miss something?”

Cui Heng shook his head. He felt that he had no clue. There were still too few clues.

Then, he looked at Li Mingqiong and asked, “Do you have the Heavenly Book of Calamity mentioned in Ye Han’s life experience?”

“Yes, it’s here.” Pei Qingshu stepped forward and found a book. He held it with both hands and handed it to Cui Heng. “Master, please take a look.”

He was in charge of sorting out the various inheritances Ye Han had obtained in his life, including the martial techniques of the Plague Imperial Palace, as well as all the secret techniques Ye Han had cultivated in the past 3,000 years. The Heavenly Book of Calamity that Sage Mingzhen had given Ye Han was naturally among them.

Cui Heng took the Heavenly Book of Calamity and flipped through it.

With just a glance, he realized that there was something wrong with this martial technique manual.

There was not much content in this Heavenly Book of Calamity. There was almost no description of cultivation concepts, only very specific cultivation methods and moves.

In other words, there were only cultivation techniques and combat techniques.

To ordinary mortal martial artists, this was not a big deal. Knowing the cultivation concept would not affect the final outcome of cultivation.

However, when one reached a high-level Immortal World martial cultivation, if they did not have a clear cultivation concept and only cultivated according to the cultivation methods and combat techniques, it might bury hidden dangers in their cultivation.

Although it might not appear in the short term, it would definitely have a negative impact on him in the long term.

In high-level martial cultivation, implementing the cultivation concept from beginning to end was actually the so-called “heart cultivation method”.

Without a heart cultivation technique, the stronger the martial technique, the stronger the backlash.

This was the conclusion Cui Heng had reached after reading a large number of high-level martial cultivation manuals in the Heavenly Void World.

The Heavenly Book of Calamity was undoubtedly powerful.

According to the description in the manual, this was not a martial technique used to increase one’s realm, but a pure killing move.

It emphasized on using the fear of all living beings, calamities, and bad luck as materials to refine one’s body into a body of calamity, allowing one to carry various negative auras with every move they made, thereby suppressing the enemy’s cultivation realm.

If he could cultivate this martial technique to the peak, not only could he casually create all kinds of natural disasters and spread bad luck, he could also directly reduce the enemy’s cultivation by a small realm and achieve an all-rounded suppression.

To any martial artist, such martial techniques were extremely powerful.

As long as one cultivated to the peak, they could almost be considered invincible among their peers.

With Cui Heng’s ability, he could clearly see that this martial technique had an extremely huge hidden danger.

This method of absorbing the fear of all living beings as a cultivation material was somewhat similar to the process of collecting the seven emotions of all living beings in the Grand Completion Golden Core Realm to nurture spirituality. However, the methods were extremely crude, and the emotions collected were not pure and incomparably complicated. Martial cultivators did not have perfect and flawless souls like immortal cultivators at the Golden Core Realm, so it was almost impossible for them to resist the corrosion of the emotions of all living beings.

In other words, if one cultivated this martial technique to the peak, the cultivator himself would very likely be devoured by the chaotic emotions and fall into madness, turning into a monster that only knew how to spread fear and calamity everywhere.

“I’m afraid that Sage Mingzhen really has some ulterior motive for imparting such a martial technique to Ye Han.” Cui Heng thought to himself, “But he also asked Ye Han to go to Tianmen Star to look for him after cultivating the Heavenly Book of Calamity to the peak…”

Thinking of this, he looked at Li Wei and asked, “Where is Tianmen Star?”

“Immortal Venerable…” Li Wei hurriedly replied, “When I was sorting out Ye Han’s life, I checked. Tianmen Star was originally one of the four main planets of the Golden Cloud Realm. It had two Sages, but now it’s a dead planet.

400 years ago, the two Sages who ruled Tianmen Star strangely fell into madness and attacked each other for no reason.

In just a month, the civilization on Tianmen Star was reduced to ruins. The two Sages also died together.”

Bizarrely falling into madness and inexplicably attacking each other?

Cui Heng immediately frowned when he heard this. Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong, who were standing at the side, also seemed to have thought of something and their expressions became a little surprised.

This was very similar to the destruction of the Nine Heavens Cloud Realm that Heavenly Saint Supreme Venerate had mentioned back

then.

Back then, the three Sages of the Nine Heavens Cloud Realm also attacked each other for no reason, causing everyone in the entire Nine Heavens Cloud Realm to feel insecure.

That was why the Dao God brought the 35 Golden Immortals of his sect far away to Daozhou Star.

However, Tianmen Star was reduced to ruins in just a month.

It could be seen that the madness of these two Sages was clearly more serious. They were even worse than the three experts of the Nine Heavens Cloud Realm.

“Heh, this is interesting.” Cui Heng suddenly laughed. He picked up another book on the table and flipped through it casually. “The Heavenly Book of Calamity that Saint Mingzhen gave Ye Han is very likely to cause cultivators to fall into madness in the end. He said that he would wait for Ye Han on Tianmen Star, but in the end, the Sages of Tianmen Star went crazy.”

“Master, you mean…” Li Mingqiong’s mind was sharp, and she could not help but ask,” Was all of this done by Sage Mingzhen alone secretly? Or is the Purple Sun Realm behind all of this? But what is their goal, and what benefits can they obtain?”

She was puzzled by this.

“Could it be to recover their Immortal True Essence?” Pei Qingshu guessed. “Didn’t Master say that this cultivation method with the Immortal True Essence as the core has huge hidden dangers? In the end, it’s very likely that it’s to benefit others. In order to recover the Immortal True Essence of a Sage, Saint Mingzhen provoked an internal strife between the two Sages of Tianmen Star?”

“I’m afraid not.” Li Mingqiong shook her head and said, “According to Ye Han’s description, Sage Mingzhen’s strength far exceeds that of ordinary Sages. If he wants to recover their Immortal True Essence, he probably doesn’t have to go through so much trouble.”

At this moment, Li Wei, who was standing at the side, was already panicking. She looked at Li Mingqiong and Pei Qingshu in surprise and asked, “You just said that the cultivation method with the Immortal True Essence as the core has huge hidden dangers and will help others? This, what’s going on?”

“There’s indeed a problem.” Cui Heng nodded but did not explain further.

Then, he looked at Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong. He put down the book in his hand and smiled. “Perhaps these things are not as complicated as we think.

It’s not necessarily a plot, nor is there necessarily a mastermind. Perhaps it’s just someone from the Purple Sun Realm experimenting with new martial techniques, or perhaps they’re exploring a new cultivation path.

Their goal is not necessarily to destroy the Nine Heavens Cloud Realm and Tianmen Star. It’s just that they arrived at this effect during the process of experimentation and exploration.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned, and indescribable shock flashed across their eyes.

Li Mingqiong muttered, “If that’s really the case, doesn’t that mean that the destruction has nothing to do with the destroyed?”

Destroying you was none of your business!

It was a chilling speculation.
