Chapter 747 - 747 Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul
747 Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul
After all, he had once been a Dao Creation realm expert and was a native of the Heavenly Sun World.
How could Chu Xuan, a guy who came from the chaos, compare to him in terms of knowledge of the Heavenly Sun World?
In terms of knowledge of the chaos, Lie Tian knew that he was inferior to Chu Xuan. However, he would not concede to Chu Xuan on his home turf.
“If I’m not wrong, you’ve encountered a life-and-death crisis and survived,” Lie Tian looked at Xue Ping and said.
!!
“Given your current level of talent, I would hazard that you have probably undergone nirvana twice or thrice.”
Xue Ping was shocked. Now that he thought about it closely, after he encountered a life and death crisis, he realized that his cultivation speed had increased.
Even his understanding of cultivation techniques improved.
Previously, he had attributed it to enlightenment from his near-death experiences, but now it seemed that it had something to do with this Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul thing.
“I only remember experiencing a life and death crisis once prior to this one.”
“However, I once heard from my elders that I almost died when I was young, but I managed to survive in the end,” he said as he suddenly recalled something.
“Three times, including this time,” Chu Xuan said lightly.
Xue Ping nodded his head.
He was worried. He still needed to experience six more life and death calamities before he could fully awaken his talent.
Six times!
There was no way he could guarantee that he would survive every time.
“It’s not difficult to awaken the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul,” Chu Xuan said.
“Since you are my disciple, I will naturally help you awaken your talent.”
“Many thanks, Master!”
Xue Ping was extremely excited.
“How are you going to help him awaken?” Lie Tian asked doubtfully.
Chu Xuan laughed.
“Life and death calamities? I’ll just create them for him.”
“If it was that easy, that Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul expert back then wouldn’t have been abandoned by his family,” Lie Tian sneered.
Chu Xuan glanced at him. This guy seemed very unconvinced. Did he think that just because he was a native expert of the Heavenly Sun World, he knew more about talents than him?
Of course, that was true before he received the Myriad Supreme Record, but oh well.
“Old man, how about a bet?”
“Hmm?” Lie Tian raised his eyebrows and asked, “What are we betting on?”
“I will help him awaken his Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul. If I succeed, you will be my servant.”
Chu Xuan thought for a moment.
Lie Tian’s brows twitched. Although he was in Chu Xuan’s hands, he was not Chu Xuan’s old servant yet.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Xuan said, “I’ve changed my mind. A servant is too pitiful. You’re a famous expert, after all.”
“How about a subordinate, the kind that is super loyal and obedient.”
The corners of Lie Tian’s mouth twitched.
“I think you should just start a sect. Since you’ve already taken in a disciple, I’ll be your sect’s guardian or elder.”
Chu Xuan felt that it made sense. He had already taken in many personal disciples and in-name disciples.
He nodded.
“Then let’s call it the Xuan Gate sect. It sounds authentic and awesome. Huhu, I’ve got my own sect now!”
Lie Tian nodded. “Sure. If I lose, I’ll be your subordinate. I’ll be a guardian, elder, or whatever. But if I win, what can you give me? ”
As for removing the control mark on his divine soul, Lie Tian did not care much about that.
He was only left with his head, and there was almost no hope of recovery, so there was no need to fret about such things.
“If I lose, I’ll help you recover your physical body, and then help you recover your strength,” Chu Xuan said lightly.
“You can do it?”
Lie Tian’s eyes lit up.
“Not yet, but I’ll be able to in the future. I’ll be able to do it within a hundred thousand years,” Chu Xuan said after a moment of silence.
Lie Tian was secretly shocked.
This feat would likely require the strength of a Dao Supreme realm expert, and a strong one at that.
The Dao he had created had completely collapsed and disappeared.
Creating a second new Dao was far more difficult than the first one.
Moreover, his Dao had been destroyed by a Dao Supreme realm expert, so there were still traces of the Dao Supreme realm expert’s power hindering his recovery, and that power would also interfere with the creation of a new Dao.
Recovering his strength was much more difficult than recovering his physical body.
Was Chu Xuan so confident that he would be able to break through to the Dao Supreme realm within a hundred thousand years?
Or even the Dao Supreme Ruler realm?
It was simply unimaginable.
“Alright, let’s bet,” Lie Tian gritted his teeth and said.
He had nothing to lose anyway.
“Then it’s settled.”
Chu Xuan chuckled. This bet would just make Lie Tian’s status as his subordinate official.
He looked at Xue Ping and asked, “Do you want to awaken your talent? The process will definitely be painful. After all, you’ll have to go through six near-death experiences.”
“I will do it personally, but will also give you the spiritual medicine to recover after each round. Although your life will not be in danger from my perspective, you will have to experience inhuman pain and suffering in the process. From your end, you will truly feel like dying.”
Lie Tian laughed.
“I knew it. If you want to use this method, it definitely won’t work. If it was so easy to awaken this talent, it would not be called trash.”
Chu Xuan smiled and did not respond.
Someone must have tried this before. However, the reason why they failed was that the owner of the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul did not truly feel like he had experienced a life-or-death calamity, and the one executing it had not gone far enough.
Furthermore, it would be difficult to pull this off on a Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul cultivator who had not experienced enough life-or-death calamities. They would simply faint from the pain or give up, thus failing to undergo nirvana.
Xue Ping had gone through many hardships and life and death situations. His willpower was strong, so it would not be a problem for him to survive this experience.
Xue Ping gritted his teeth and said, “Master, I choose to awaken my talent. I can do it…”
He recalled his own life experiences.
What was a mere pain in comparison?
“Alright, I’ll believe in you then.”
Chu Xuan waved his hand, and a bunch of priceless spiritual herbs appeared beside Xue Ping.
“This should be enough for you to recover six times.”
Xue Ping’s eyes lit up as he looked at them. They were all top-grade heavenly treasures.
Even if he did not awaken the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul, with his current talent and these heavenly treasures, he should be able to break through to the divine realm.
However, that would be what his previous self would have chosen. Now, he knew about the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul, and wanted nothing more than to awaken to his full potential.
He wanted to awaken his talent and take back the dignity that belonged to him!
He took a deep breath and said, “Master, I’m ready!”
“Okay, let’s start!”
After Chu Xuan spoke, he acted, and Xue Ping immediately screamed in pain.
His physical body suddenly collapsed.
Even his divine soul was suffering from the destructive power that Chu Xuan was using. It was as if he was on the very edge of death, and would die at any moment.
Xue Ping screamed, and his face was contorted in pain.
It was a hundred times more painful than any of his previous injuries.
He almost felt like his life was flashing before his eyes.
The pain overwhelmed his consciousness, and he almost forgot what he was going to do.
Lie Tian looked on.
He frowned.
Something was wrong with Xue Ping. Why did it feel like he was enduring pain that far exceeded what he should feel given the power that Chu Xuan was using?
Chu Xuan explained, “Actually, it’s possible to awaken the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul with this method. However, it will cause the Nine Nirvana Heavenly Soul cultivator an extreme amount of pain. Those who don’t have strong willpower will lose consciousness from the pain. Naturally, they will fail their nirvana if they do so.”
Lie Tian frowned and asked, “Why is this so?”
Chu Xuan smiled and said mysteriously, “Naturally, this is due to a restriction of the transcendent laws.”
Lie Tian’s heart trembled as he looked at Chu Xuan in a daze.
Because of the limitations of the transcendent laws, the level of pain would be increased by a hundred times when others assisted in the nirvana process?
In that case, only those with the strongest willpower would be able to succeed.
