Chapter Thirty-Three: Sin and Guilt Incarnate
"What's going on? This idea has appeared for the third time, and it no longer forces me or tempts me, but simply guides me to a destination in my mind, existing calmly and quietly. If I don't pay attention to it, it won't have any impact on me at all. How did it become so easy-going?
Time continued to pass, and the language class came to an end. During the break between classes, Guo Zhengyang remained seated quietly, not taking the opportunity to search for his target, but instead furrowed his brow in contemplation, wondering why this third appearance of the idea was so different from the first two times."
How did this thing suddenly become kind?
This is unreasonable.
When the idea first emerged, Guo Zhengyang initially resisted, so the idea forced him, and the coercion made Guo Zhengyang feel deeply, almost controlling his consciousness and manipulating his body. Later, he didn't kill the target, and the idea continued to slowly tempt him, its power was even more terrifying than coercion.
By the time of his second appearance, Guo Zhengyang had chosen to follow his intuition and did not encounter any coercion. However, upon arriving at his destination, his intuition continued to slowly tempt him to hunt and kill. If it weren't for that temptation, he wouldn't have been so careless as to not notice someone approaching from behind, ultimately leading to him being held at gunpoint and entering the house.
The first two times were either forced or deceived, with a strong sense of mental oppression.
But this time there was nothing at all.
The difference was so great that Guo Zhengyang didn't rush to find the target for a while, but instead felt that this thing's change was worth spending more thought on.
"Could it be that because I've already killed the target, and knew the benefits of killing the target afterwards, my mindset is no longer resistant to the idea, so that thing didn't appear with a sense of oppression?" After some thought, Guo Zhengyang quickly came up with the idea that the change in his thoughts might have something to do with actually killing someone last time.
When he didn't kill, his mind kept trying to make him hunt down targets. The first time he didn't hunt, the second time was either forced or deceived. Until he really hunted down the target and killed once, after understanding the amazing benefits of hunting down the target, his mind no longer forced him, but only let him choose?
This possibility should be very high. Because Guo Zhengyang really found that after the last killing, even if his mind did not force him to do so, if he encountered a suitable person to hunt and kill, he would probably not be able to resist taking action either. No way, the benefits of hunting and killing were too astonishing, and the difference compared to not hunting was too great. Putting aside luck, just the gray energy after hunting was enough to shock people.
Can he resist the temptation of that gray gas?
But just as Guo Zhengyang sat in his seat, thinking repeatedly, the idea that had always existed in his mind suddenly changed, turning into another wave of fluctuation, no longer simply guiding him to his destination, but conveying another meaning.
After the meaning of this new message was interpreted by Guo Zhengyang, Guo Zhengyang's face changed drastically on the spot, and with a loud crash, he punched the wall beside his desk.
A powerful fist slammed heavily against the wall, causing a loud noise that instantly made the originally chaotic classroom stunned. Many students in the front row of the classroom looked at Guo Zhengyang in shock, staring blankly at him, but Guo Zhengyang didn't care about them at all. With a thud, he sat down clumsily, his face pale and bloodless, his body slightly trembling.
Because the new message conveyed by the intention just now, after being interpreted by him, can be summarized in one sentence: Plundering the heavenly machine is intolerable to heaven and earth, sin is added to the body, and heavenly calamity is about to descend!!!
He really understood the meaning of conveying thoughts and Guo Zhengyang almost burst into tears.
Heavenly calamity? Do you have to be so ruthless?
He remembered that after killing the long-haired man last time, his intention was to gain sin, and then a gray gas that could make his left hand invulnerable to swords and guns emerged from the corpse of the long-haired man.
At that time, he knew that thing was called a sin, but later the benefits of sin were too great, so Guo Zhengyang once suspected that he had misheard.
Now that he can hear the guilt and calamity, the heavenly punishment is about to descend, he finally confirms that he didn't mishear last time, it was indeed guilt.
He didn't guess wrong, and his intention was indeed to help him steal other people's opportunities, stealing other people's luck!!
But plundering others' heavenly secrets is actually intolerable to heaven and earth, will it bring down heavenly punishment and slaughter?
Why didn't you say this earlier?
He has already killed once and is guilty of a crime, why would he say otherwise?
Heavenly calamity? ? ?
It can't get any worse than this.
Heavens!
This thing is legendary even in the spiritual realm.
According to legend, when a monk cultivates to an extremely high level, the mundane world's starry sky can no longer hold you. You can easily break free from all worldly shackles. The heavens and earth can no longer contain you, and at that time, heavenly tribulation will descend to annihilate you. Once you overcome this heavenly tribulation, you can ascend to immortality, rise as an immortal in broad daylight, leap out of the cycle of rebirth, and become a celestial being!
Heavenly Tribulation, this is the realm that cultivators cultivate to the legendary highest level, where a single thought can shatter the void. Only then will one be unable to be contained by heaven and earth, and Heavenly Tribulation will descend.
That realm doesn't exist even in this life of Guo Zhengyang, let alone in the previous spiritual realm; it only exists in legend.
The master's cultivation begins with the gathering of spirits into the body, known as the Gathering Spirit period. After the gathering of spirits, one becomes a True Person, and can already fly through the sky and escape into the earth, summoning the wind and rain. Above the True Person is the Dao Lord.
Everyone knows that Daojun's power is not clear to Guo Zhengyang, because in his previous life he was just a loose cultivator, a wild child from the countryside, and didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with such high and mighty beings who dominated everything, so it's naturally impossible for him to be clear.
But he indeed knew that Dao Jun was far from standing at the top of the mundane world, far from those who could shatter the void with a single thought and make planets collapse with their high aspirations. There was still a difference between heaven and earth, and above Dao Jun, there must be other realms. Those realms were unclear to him, but he knew that even above Dao Jun, they might not necessarily be the most supreme existence.
In the spiritual realm, the Taoist master who dominates everything is just an ant compared to the peak that is about to ascend and fly away, the gap is absolutely greater than the difference between the Taoist master and ordinary people.
Heavenly Tribulation...
This is too pitiful.
It's just that even the strongest Daoist in the spiritual realm would be annihilated in an instant when facing heavenly tribulation, and it's absolutely impossible to have any power to resist. And what about Guo Zhengyang? He is only in the initial stage of gathering spirits now. If you had said before that some cultivator in the initial stage of gathering spirits would encounter heavenly tribulation, he would definitely be regarded as a fool or a madman, and everyone would look at him with disdain.
But now Guo Zhengyang, this initial-stage Qi Refining cultivator, really encountered a heavenly tribulation!!!
Those are the terrifying things that can destroy and kill with just a thought, shattering the void. The heavenly tribulation destroys those supreme existences because this world cannot contain them, and they will be easily overturned by those supreme existences, which is why the heavenly punishment is brought down.
But what about Guo Zhengyang? He was rejected by heaven and earth because he plundered the heavenly mechanism.
The cultivation of masters is also against the sky and changing fate, and the ultimate goal pursued is to be unbearable by heaven and earth, to survive the heavenly calamity and ascend to immortality, jump out of reincarnation, and become a free and easy immortal.
Guo Zhengyang's ultimate pursuit is also this.
But isn't this coming a bit too early? He's still just in the initial stages of gathering his spirit!!
This time, the message conveyed by the intention made Guo Zhengyang stunned and forgot why his intention didn't force or deceive him, because his heart was filled with the heavenly tribulation.
